★★☆☆☆
I was born in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )New York City and lived there until I was five. After my brother was born, my parents decided they wanted us to grow up knowing our culture, so we moved back to India. But every summer, we return to New York to visit friends, so I feel that I have two homes instead of one.
A lot of my A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )merican friends think of teens in India only as hardworking, book-smart students — and to some degree that’s true. One reason is that, unlike in the U.S., whether an Indian teen can go to college is decided by his scores only.
There are, however, l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ots of similarities between Indian and American teens. We wear jeans, eat out, and watch movies. The differences are surprisingly few.
Sometimes I find mysel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f thinking what it would be like if my friends from both countries could meet. I don’t think they would have any trouble getting along because I think teens everywhere are asking themselves the same questions: Who am I What kind of person do I want to be And how can I give back to the world
The answers I’ve heard ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are similar everywhere. Everyone believes they should do something to improve our world. Everyone believes our generation cannot be affected easily by the prejudices (偏见) of past generations; not only do we tolerate differences among us, we appreciate them.
Besides, all o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f us have already got some ideas about religious argument, global warming — things that have matured (使成熟) us faster than our parents and grandparents.
And because of t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )his, everyone feels that no matter how old we are or where we come from, we each should try to unite through differences that drove us apart in the past. That’s what I’ve learned on both sides of the world.
60. By writing Paragraphs 2 and 3, the author wants to _____.
A. change American teens’ views about Indian teens
B. encourage Indian teens to learn from American teens
C. show American teens and Indian teens are very similarwww.21-cn-jy.com
D. compare the education systems of America and India
61. The author believ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es that if his friends from both countries met, they would _____.
A. learn from each other
B. ask each other lots of questions
C. have little difficulty in becoming friends
D. be surprised at the differences between them
62. The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )word “tolerate” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by _____.
A. know B. believe
C. explain D. accept
C

Is there a dinosa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ur living in Loch Ness For years, people have rushed to the deep, cold lake (loch means “lake”) in the Scottish Highlands hoping to see the monster known as Nessie.
The first st ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ory about the lake creature dates from the 6th century. According to an ancient text, in the year 565, St. Columba, an Irishman, saved a man from a huge water monster in the River Ness, which flows from the loch. St. Columba ordered, “You will go no further. Do not touch the man; turn back speedily.” The monster was terrified and followed his order.
However, the stor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y wasn’t written down until a century after it supposedly happened. And stories of water monsters were common in those days, when people believed in all kinds of strange things.
After the story ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )with St. Columba, Nessie wasn’t seen or heard from again until the 20th century. In 1934, a photo showed quite clearly a large dinosaur-like animal in the water. However, a man named Christian Spurling admitted shortly before his death that the dinosaur-like animal in the picture was made up by himself. In the end, there exists no evidence that Nessie does or ever did live in the deep, cold Scottish loch.
However, that doe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sn’t stop many people from believing. One of those is Alastair Boyd. He says he has seen Nessie himself. “I believe in my eyesight ... and I know that the thing I saw was a large animal, something like a whale. It’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in my life, and if I could afford to spend the rest of my life trying to see it again, I would.”
Boyd’s words ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )may help us understand the role such mysteries play in our culture. People just cannot refuse the lure (诱惑) of monsters and imaginary creatures. Who wouldn’t want to see Nessie rise up from that lake in Scotland It’s amazing and wonderful to think that fantastic creatures from an unimaginably strange and distant time live in the deepest, darkest places on Earth.
67. The three stories in the text all showed Nessie _____.
A. was harmful to people
B. looked like a dinosaur
C. swam at high speeds
D. was very big
68. We can infe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r that the author thinks that the story about St. Columba is _____.
A. strange B. doubtful
C. exciting D. confusing
69. The author tells t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he stories about Nessie mainly in order of _____.
A. importance B. interest
C. time D. space
70. The last paragraph explains why _____.
A. Nessie lives in the deepest and darkest place
B. Alastair Boyd believes Nessie exists
C. Nessie hasn’t been seen recently
D. people are interested in Nessie

It all comes back to attitude!
If you want to be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )happy you must take responsibility (责任) and stop expecting things or people to make you happy. You are the source of your own happiness, so stop looking elsewhere. 71 Here are a few ways for you to follow:

John Muir had lived in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Yosemite, California for thirty years, working as a wilderness (荒原) guide. He tried to persuade people to preserve (保护) the area. In 1890, the government formed Yosemite National Park, but the new park did not include Yosemite Valley.
In March 1903, Muir r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eceived a letter from President Teddy Roosevelt himself, who wanted to camp in Yosemite and asked Muir to be his guide.
Here was the chance Mu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ir needed! Roosevelt had already expressed his anger at the destruction of the wilderness. The President had once said, “The time has come to worry about what will happen when our forests are gone.”
Muir quickly ag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )reed to be Roosevelt’s guide. The two men rode on horseback the twenty miles to Yosemite Valley and camped in Mariposa Grove, in the southern part of Yosemite National Park. Under an ancient sequoias (红杉), the two men talked nonstop.
Muir quickly discovere ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d that the President deeply loved the outdoors and had a great understanding of nature. Muir was more hopeful than ever. During the two days, Yosemite did its best to impress the President. Roosevelt whistled (吹口哨) to the birds, and they whistled back. The sunlight shone brightly on rocks and mountains. All the while, Muir pointed out the dangerous situation of this beautiful valley.
Muir and Yose ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mite did their work well. Just days after his camping trip, Roosevelt gave a speech strongly suggesting forest preservation.
“The sequoias ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) need protection,” he said, “simply because it would be a shame to let them disappear. We are not building this country of ours for a day. It is to last through the ages.”
Roosevelt was as g ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ood as his words. By the end of his presidential term, he had added 148 million acres to forest reserves (保护区) and established five national parks — a total of 234 million acres set aside for the benefit of the American people.
And John Muir He fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ught for preservation until his death in 1914. He also became a great admirer of President Roosevelt. When he heard the news that the President had signed a bill making Yosemite Valley a national park, Muir shouted, “Well done, Teddy Roosevelt!”

2. Why did Muir quickly agree to guide Roosevelt

D. Because it was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a chance to show his achievement in protecting nature.
3. Roosevelt d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )id all the following things during the camp EXCEPT _____.

★★★★☆
Supper was not goi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng well for two-year-old Benjamin. As his frustrations (失望) increased to anger, his four-year-old sister, Ellie, noticed it. “He’s angry,” she told her mother, Susan Rivers, of Newton, Massachusetts. “What can we do to make him happy ” With her mom’s help, Ellie thought up a few things. Perhaps they could offer Benjamin a cookie. Or maybe playing with his toys would cheer him up. “She was really trying to understand his feelings and find out what she could do to reduce his frustration,” Rivers says.
Ellie’s concern fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r her brother is touching, to be sure. But it could also be the key to her having a more joyful life. Empathy — the ability to understand and be sensitive to other people’s feelings — helps us to be more deeply attached to our family, friends, and even strangers. “Empathy is probably the greatest single gift (天赋) of us humans,” says Bruce D. Perry, M.D., Ph.D., who works at the Child Trauma Academy, in Houston, and is the co-author of Born for Love: Why Empathy Is Essential — and Endangered. “We wouldn’t have been able to survive without creating relationships and groups that could work together.”21·世纪*教育网
Putting your chil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dren in someone else’s shoes is also very important for their other caring feelings. “It’s how we develop thankfulness, hope, and sympathy (同情) — which is the ability to act on your empathy,” explains Christine Carter, Ph.D., a sociologist (社会学家) and happiness expert at the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California, Berkeley. One study there found that kids as young as eighteen months could develop the ability to understand people’s feelings. By age four, they not only make physical caring gestures, but also start to think about others’ feelings in relation to their own. Many of these reactions happen naturally, but you can make an effort to help your children gain empathy-building experiences. Consider these eleven things you can do to raise a truly caring child.
6. The first paragraph serves as a(n) _____.
A. explanation B. example
C. comment D. conclusion
7. We learn from t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he text that the author thinks Ellie’s actions are _____.
A. moving B. exciting
C. interesting D. satisfying
8. In Paragraph 2, Bruce D. Perry ______.
A. makes comments about Ellie’s concern
B. explains the meaning of empathy
C. shows his opinions about helping others
D. stresses the importance of empathy
9. What would the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows
A. Why empathy is so important.
B. How to develop children’s empathy.

The Loch Ness monster
In the north ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of Scotland there is a lake called Loch Ness. In the 19th century someone said that he had seen a monster in the lake. It was about twenty meters long and had a long neck and a small head. In 1934 a London doctor claimed to have seen it and took a photo. It looked like a monster with a thick body but the photo was not clear. Later, some American scientists formed a search group. Some of the pictures they took seemed to show a red-brown creature with a very ugly head.
Does the mons ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ter really exist in the lake No one knows for sure. However, some scientists regard it as a modern myth, and explain it is a mixture of jokes and wishful thinking.2·1·c·n·j·y

I was born in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )New York City and lived there until I was five. After my brother was born, my parents decided they wanted us to grow up knowing our culture, so we moved back to India. But every summer, we return to New York to visit friends, so I feel that I have two homes instead of one.
A lot of my A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )merican friends think of teens in India only as hardworking, book-smart students — and to some degree that’s true. One reason is that, unlike in the U.S., whether an Indian teen can go to college is decided by his scores only.
There are, however, l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ots of similarities between Indian and American teens. We wear jeans, eat out, and watch movies. The differences are surprisingly few.
Sometimes I find mysel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f thinking what it would be like if my friends from both countries could meet. I don’t think they would have any trouble getting along because I think teens everywhere are asking themselves the same questions: Who am I What kind of person do I want to be And how can I give back to the world
The answers I’ve heard ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are similar everywhere. Everyone believes they should do something to improve our world. Everyone believes our generation cannot be affected easily by the prejudices (偏见) of past generations; not only do we tolerate differences among us, we appreciate them.
Besides, all o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f us have already got some ideas about religious argument, global warming — things that have matured (使成熟) us faster than our parents and grandparents.
And because of t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )his, everyone feels that no matter how old we are or where we come from, we each should try to unite through differences that drove us apart in the past. That’s what I’ve learned on both sides of the world.
60. By writing Paragraphs 2 and 3, the author wants to _____.
A. change American teens’ views about Indian teens
B. encourage Indian teens to learn from American teens
C. show American teens and Indian teens are very similarwww.21-cn-jy.com
D. compare the education systems of America and India
61. The author believ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es that if his friends from both countries met, they would _____.
A. learn from each other
B. ask each other lots of questions
C. have little difficulty in becoming friends
D. be surprised at the differences between them
62. The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )word “tolerate” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by _____.
A. know B. believe
C. explain D. accept

Is there a dinosa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ur living in Loch Ness For years, people have rushed to the deep, cold lake (loch means “lake”) in the Scottish Highlands hoping to see the monster known as Nessie.
The first st ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ory about the lake creature dates from the 6th century. According to an ancient text, in the year 565, St. Columba, an Irishman, saved a man from a huge water monster in the River Ness, which flows from the loch. St. Columba ordered, “You will go no further. Do not touch the man; turn back speedily.” The monster was terrified and followed his order.
However, the stor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y wasn’t written down until a century after it supposedly happened. And stories of water monsters were common in those days, when people believed in all kinds of strange things.
After the story ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )with St. Columba, Nessie wasn’t seen or heard from again until the 20th century. In 1934, a photo showed quite clearly a large dinosaur-like animal in the water. However, a man named Christian Spurling admitted shortly before his death that the dinosaur-like animal in the picture was made up by himself. In the end, there exists no evidence that Nessie does or ever did live in the deep, cold Scottish loch.
However, that doe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sn’t stop many people from believing. One of those is Alastair Boyd. He says he has seen Nessie himself. “I believe in my eyesight ... and I know that the thing I saw was a large animal, something like a whale. It’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in my life, and if I could afford to spend the rest of my life trying to see it again, I would.”
Boyd’s words ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )may help us understand the role such mysteries play in our culture. People just cannot refuse the lure (诱惑) of monsters and imaginary creatures. Who wouldn’t want to see Nessie rise up from that lake in Scotland It’s amazing and wonderful to think that fantastic creatures from an unimaginably strange and distant time live in the deepest, darkest places on Earth.
67. The three stories in the text all showed Nessie _____.
A. was harmful to people
B. looked like a dinosaur
C. swam at high speeds
D. was very big
68. We can infe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r that the author thinks that the story about St. Columba is _____.
A. strange B. doubtful
C. exciting D. confusing
69. The author tells t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he stories about Nessie mainly in order of _____.
A. importance B. interest
C. time D. space
70. The last paragraph explains why _____.
A. Nessie lives in the deepest and darkest place
B. Alastair Boyd believes Nessie exists
C. Nessie hasn’t been seen recently
D. people are interested in Nessie

John Muir had lived in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Yosemite, California for thirty years, working as a wilderness (荒原) guide. He tried to persuade people to preserve (保护) the area. In 1890, the government formed Yosemite National Park, but the new park did not include Yosemite Valley.
In March 1903, Muir r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eceived a letter from President Teddy Roosevelt himself, who wanted to camp in Yosemite and asked Muir to be his guide.
Here was the chance Mu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ir needed! Roosevelt had already expressed his anger at the destruction of the wilderness. The President had once said, “The time has come to worry about what will happen when our forests are gone.”
Muir quickly ag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )reed to be Roosevelt’s guide. The two men rode on horseback the twenty miles to Yosemite Valley and camped in Mariposa Grove, in the southern part of Yosemite National Park. Under an ancient sequoias (红杉), the two men talked nonstop.
Muir quickly discovere ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d that the President deeply loved the outdoors and had a great understanding of nature. Muir was more hopeful than ever. During the two days, Yosemite did its best to impress the President. Roosevelt whistled (吹口哨) to the birds, and they whistled back. The sunlight shone brightly on rocks and mountains. All the while, Muir pointed out the dangerous situation of this beautiful valley.
Muir and Yose ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mite did their work well. Just days after his camping trip, Roosevelt gave a speech strongly suggesting forest preservation.
“The sequoias ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) need protection,” he said, “simply because it would be a shame to let them disappear. We are not building this country of ours for a day. It is to last through the ages.”
Roosevelt was as g ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ood as his words. By the end of his presidential term, he had added 148 million acres to forest reserves (保护区) and established five national parks — a total of 234 million acres set aside for the benefit of the American people.
And John Muir He fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ught for preservation until his death in 1914. He also became a great admirer of President Roosevelt. When he heard the news that the President had signed a bill making Yosemite Valley a national park, Muir shouted, “Well done, Teddy Roosevelt!”

Supper was not goi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng well for two-year-old Benjamin. As his frustrations (失望) increased to anger, his four-year-old sister, Ellie, noticed it. “He’s angry,” she told her mother, Susan Rivers, of Newton, Massachusetts. “What can we do to make him happy ” With her mom’s help, Ellie thought up a few things. Perhaps they could offer Benjamin a cookie. Or maybe playing with his toys would cheer him up. “She was really trying to understand his feelings and find out what she could do to reduce his frustration,” Rivers says.
Ellie’s concern fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r her brother is touching, to be sure. But it could also be the key to her having a more joyful life. Empathy — the ability to understand and be sensitive to other people’s feelings — helps us to be more deeply attached to our family, friends, and even strangers. “Empathy is probably the greatest single gift (天赋) of us humans,” says Bruce D. Perry, M.D., Ph.D., who works at the Child Trauma Academy, in Houston, and is the co-author of Born for Love: Why Empathy Is Essential — and Endangered. “We wouldn’t have been able to survive without creating relationships and groups that could work together.”21·世纪*教育网
Putting your chil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dren in someone else’s shoes is also very important for their other caring feelings. “It’s how we develop thankfulness, hope, and sympathy (同情) — which is the ability to act on your empathy,” explains Christine Carter, Ph.D., a sociologist (社会学家) and happiness expert at the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California, Berkeley. One study there found that kids as young as eighteen months could develop the ability to understand people’s feelings. By age four, they not only make physical caring gestures, but also start to think about others’ feelings in relation to their own. Many of these reactions happen naturally, but you can make an effort to help your children gain empathy-building experiences. Consider these eleven things you can do to raise a truly caring child.
6. The first paragraph serves as a(n) _____.
A. explanation B. example
C. comment D. conclusion
7. We learn from t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he text that the author thinks Ellie’s actions are _____.
A. moving B. exciting
C. interesting D. satisfying
8. In Paragraph 2, Bruce D. Perry ______.
A. makes comments about Ellie’s concern
B. explains the meaning of empathy
C. shows his opinions about helping others
D. stresses the importance of empathy
9. What would the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows
A. Why empathy is so important.
B. How to develop children’s empathy.
C. Why many people don’t have empathy.
D. How kids understand people’s feelings.
10. For whom is the text most probably written

The Loch Ness monster
In the north ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of Scotland there is a lake called Loch Ness. In the 19th century someone said that he had seen a monster in the lake. It was about twenty meters long and had a long neck and a small head. In 1934 a London doctor claimed to have seen it and took a photo. It looked like a monster with a thick body but the photo was not clear. Later, some American scientists formed a search group. Some of the pictures they took seemed to show a red-brown creature with a very ugly head.
Does the mons ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ter really exist in the lake No one knows for sure. However, some scientists regard it as a modern myth, and explain it is a mixture of jokes and wishful thinking.2·1·c·n·j·y
