I believe that we should take pride in what we do, even if it is misunderstood by the people around us.
I have been a professional skateboarder for 24 years. For much of that time, the sport that paid my rent and gave me my greatest joy had many names, most of which were ugly: a kids' play, a waste of time, a dangerous activity.
When I was about 1 , my high school teacher even told me in front of the entire class that I would never make a living as a skateboarder. It seemed to him that my future was bleak.
Even during those dark years, I never stopped riding my skateboard. There had been many, many times when I felt discouraged because I couldn't complete a difficult move. But I've come to realize that the only way to master something is to keep at it-despite the bloody knees, despite the unpleasant comments.
Although skateboarding has gained mainstream recognition in recent years, it still has unfavorable stereotypes(刻板印象).The professional skateboarders I know are responsible members of society. Their hair styles and clothes are simply part of the culture,even when they appear strange during competitions.
So here I am, 38 years old, a wife and a mother of three, with a lengthy list of responsibilities. And although I have many job titles—senior advisor, foundation chairwoman, well-known actress–the one I am most proud of is professional skateboarder.
My youngest son's preschool class were recently asked what their parents do for work. The responses were things like, "My dad sells money." and My mom figures stuff out." My son said, "I've never seen my mom do work."
It's true, Skateboarding doesn't seem like real work, but I'm proud of what I do. My parents never once questioned the practicality behind my passion(酷爱).I hope to pass on the same lesson to my children someday.
24. What does the underlined word "bleak" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Successful. B.Certain. C.Bright. D.Unpromising.
25. What can we learn from paragraph 5 about the professional skateboarders
A. They are irresponsible members of society.
B. They love making unpleasant comments.
C.They wear strange hair styles and clothes.
D. They turn deaf ears to other people's ideas.
26. Which job title is the author most proud of
A. Famous actress. B. Professional skateboarder.
C. Senior advisor. D. Foundation chairwoman.
27. What is the author most likely to tell her children
A. Follow their passion and keep at it.
B. Don't question the practicality of her job.
C. They are lucky to have a supportive mother.
D.Skateboarding is the best sport in the world.

At a Pittsburgh wedding, the cookie table is as important as the first kiss. But finding the true origin of the tradition is as challenging as making the perfect cookie table, Some say it's a custom brought to Pittsburgh by immigrants and everybody from Italians to Polish people claims its heritage. Others say it grew out of a need to save money on cake in the 1930s.
But the cookie table's connection with weddings didn't show up in publications until the1990s. Certainly, Pittsburghers feasted on wedding cookie tables well before the 1990s, with local bakers saying they recall cookie tables at their families' weddings for as long as they can remember.
"When I was a kid, the big talk was not ‘How was the wedding ' Instead, it was 'How were the cookies '"said 70-year-old Marc Serrao, owner of Oakmont Bakery in Pittsburgh."Perhaps the concept didn't show up in newspapers and cookbooks because everybody was doing it, so it wasn't seen as newsworthy."
But no matter the origins, this tradition of sharing sweet homemade cookies at weddings is baked into Pittsburgh culture. For many local families, preparing a cookie table has become a unique way to show their love.
There's no exact number of cookies at a wedding. It's usually somewhere between six per guest up to one-and-a-half dozen(十二) per guest.
Then when can the guests eat the cookies
The answer likely lies in family tradition. Some families open the cookie tables before dinner, while most families wait until after dinner. Generally, it is recommended to wait until after dinner.
“However,what is tradition and what happens are two totally different things," Marc Serrao says. "I dare someone to tell Grandma that she is not allowed to pick a cookie off the cookie table before dinner. I also dare someone to tell Aunt Betsy that she is not allowed to out four cookies in her bag for the next morning with her coffee."'
28. What can we know about the cookie table from the first four paragraphs
A.It was brought to Pittsburgh by immigrants.
B. It first appeared at weddings during the 1990s.
C. It grew out of a need to save money in the 1930s.
D. It has been an important part of a wedding in Pittsburgh.
29. How many cookies are usually prepared for each guest
A.3~6. B.5~12. C.6~18. D.19~24.
30. When can guests usually eat the cookies
A.Old people always eat before dinner. B. It is better to wait until after dinner.
C. It is necessary to ask Grandma first. D. They are usually eaten the next morning.
31. What does Mare Serrao mean in the last paragraph
A. There are exceptions to rules. B. We have to follow customs strictly.
C.It is OK for old people to break rules. D. It is not important to follow traditions.
D
Most people don't lie very much. It makes sense. By being honest with people, you not only build up goodwill, but also save a lot of brainpower since your brain doesn't have to do anything out of the ordinary when you tell the truth. You just think of what you want to say,and you say it.
However, lying takes much more work. Imagine you're late to class and the teacher asks why. If you decide to lie, you have to make up a story on the spot, think about the various directions the conversation might take and figure out what you need to say to keep this whole lie from falling apart. You might not be aware of it, but you just give your brain a lot of extra work.
“A lot of that brain work is done in a region called the prefrontal cortex. It's the part incharge of working memory," explains Jennifer Vendemia, a scientist from the University of South Carolina.
Working memory keeps something in mind just for a little while, such as remembering instructions for how to play a game or some other specific task. It stores things for only a short while as you're using them, and it doesn't put them in long-term storage. Besides working memory, the prefrontal cortex also takes care of tasks such as planning, problem-solving and self-control. Scientists describe these as executive function tasks. Executive function lets you think a step or two ahead to make sure the lie you're telling will likely hold up to questioning.
"Spending so much brainpower trying to keep a story straight means there's less available for other things," says Vendemia. "Lying is especially harmful for young people as the prefrontal cortex is not fully developed until around age 25. When the prefrontal cortex is busy with tasks related to lying, younger people have a harder time doing other tasks."
Lying has social costs, too. People generally value honesty and don't like liars. So if people view you as untrustworthy, it can be bad for your relationships.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The costs of lying to people. B. The true meaning of honesty.
C. The benefits of being truthful. D. The difficulty of being a good liar.
33. Why is a lying student mentioned in the second paragraph
A. To prove a theory. B. To introduce a topic.
C.To provide the background. D. To give an example.
34. Which of the following is the function of working memory
A. Remembering a life-long lesson. B. Storing information for a short time.
C. Pushing oneself to face difficulties. D. Processing information in the brain.
35. What is the best title for the text
A.What Are the Harmful Effects of Lying
B. Which Part of Brain Is in Charge of Lying
C. When Is It Especially Bad for People to Lie
D. How Can We Keep Lies From Falling Apart

My struggles started in seventh grade when I began passing out. I had many medical check-ups and finally found one that helped. My average blood pressure was about 80/60 on a good day. To this day, I continue to battle this problem.
Then, two years ago, I was diagnosed(诊断) with fibromyalgia, a muscle disease that is not really helped by medication. It's like having a pulled muscle when the disease attacks. It can last as long as three months. I was bedridden for a month. Cold weather, rain, or physical or emotional stress can cause the pain,
It's hard enough to be a healthy teenager and go through the typical changes with friends,family, school, etc. Add to that missing two to three months of school a year, and it can make things very difficult. The hardest part was on the outside I looked normal like everyone else; however, on the inside, I was in horrible pain. Some classmates had passed their comments on me thinking that since my physical appearance was fine, I must be OK. The judgment hurt me more than anyone will ever know.
I battled with depression(抑郁) as well, because I felt like an outsider. I longed to be normal and healthy. I even developed an eating disorder. In the beginning, I had lost a lot of weight. For the first time, I felt like I was attractive because I was skinny. I was receiving more attention than ever. I would still feel depressed, though, because of all that was going on in my life. I would eat a lot hoping the stress would go away. But then I would throw up the food so I would still look good. Luckily, I overcame these problems with the help of my family and a wonderful job.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
