I grew up in a poor family. This was something I did not realize until I was older. I thought everyone in the city took the bus, because everyone in my neighborhood took the bus. I thought everyone in the city used the food bank, because all my friends’ families ate the same government-labeled food as my family ate. We all wore hand-me-down clothes.
Shopping with my mom made me first understand that my family was a little different. My mom used paper money that looked different from the paper money others in line were using, I asked my mom why our money looked different. She said that we used food stamps that were provided by government so we could eat.
In high school, I was still embarrassed and wished we were not so poor, but I loved my mom and the other members of my family and knew we had things to be proud of. Though my mother was uneducated, she taught me how to love and told me to believe in myself. Growing up in poor family taught me perseverance. I have always believed in myself and my abilities. I knew I could focus on schoolwork and build a life that looked different from my childhood.
As I became a man, I started understanding how my experiences made it possible for me to be resilient, and how to respect people for who they are as an individual — and not by what they have. I think there are a lot of fixed images placed on those experiencing poor life that do not actually come from the people experiencing it. These opinions come from people on the outside trying not to look into the experience. Hardworking, trust-worthy, reliable, clean, efficient, successful and disciplined are all words not specially connected with poor life. But those words are very much shown by those experiencing poor life. I am proud to be who I am and proud of where I’m from.
24. What was the author’s mom purpose of using different paper money in the shop
A. To show her difference. B. To spend the extra stamps.
C. To support the local government. D. To buy food without real money.
25. What kind of person was the author’s mom according to paragraph 3
A. Wise. B. Highly educated. C. Frightening. D. Impatient.
26. What is the author’s attitude to his family background
A. Careless. B. Proud. C. Annoyed. D. Disappointed.
27. What is the text mainly about
A. Childhood memories. B. Sadness because of being poor.
C. Lessons from growing up poor. D. Tiring poor life.

There are thousands of languages in the world. But which language is the oldest Experts use different methods to find out the age of a language.
Finding the oldest language is a challenging task, according to Danny Hieber, an expert in the study of endangered languages. “If we think that most languages can date back to an original human language, all languages are equally old,” Hieber said. However, it’s impossible to find out such language—the direct ancestor of every language in the world. Accordingly, some experts believe that the “oldest language” should belong to one with a well-established written record.
Many of the earliest recorded examples of writing come from languages that used cuneiform script (楔形文字). Among these languages are Sumerian and Akkadian, both dating back at least 4,600 years. Experts have also found Egyptian hieroglyphs that date to around the same historical period. These hieroglyphs, which can be translated into “He has united the Two Lands for his son, Dual King Peribsen”, are considered the earliest complete sentence ever discovered.
Experts generally agree that Sumerian, Akkadian and Egyptian are the oldest languages with a clear written record. All three are extinct, meaning that they are no longer used and don’t have any living followers which can carry the language to the next generation.
As for the oldest language that is still spoken, several competitors appear. Hebrew and Arabic stand out among such languages for having timelines that experts can reasonably find, according to Hieber. Although these earliest written languages only date back around 3,000 years, Hieber said, “both of them belong to the Afroasiatic language family, whose roots date back to 18,000 to 8,000 B. C. E., or about 20,000 to 10,000 years ago.” Even with this wide period of time, it is widely accepted that Afroasiatic is the oldest language family. But the exact point in time when Hebrew and Arabic separated from other Afroasiatic languages is heavily debated among experts.
28. How can experts judge the age of a language
A. By studying its spoken dialects. B. By analyzing its basic grammar.
C. By examining its written records. D. By comparing it to other languages.
29. What is the value of these Egyptian hieroglyphs
A. They’re an example of cuneiform script. B. They belong to the Afroasiatic language family.
C. They provide evidence of the oldest language. D. They’re the earliest-known complete sentence.
30. What does the underlined word “extinct” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Gone. B. Ancient. C. Outdated. D. Active.
31. What is the main disagreement among experts regarding Hebrew and Arabic
A. The reason for their standing out. B. The exact time of their separation.
C. The appearance of their competitors. D. The roots of earliest written languages.
D
The evidence for harmony (和睦) may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents.
An important new study into teenage attitudes shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be about their families,” says one member of the research team. “They’re expected to be rebellious (叛逆的) but actually they have other things in their minds; they want a car and other material goods, and they worry whether school is serving them well. There’re more negotiations (协商) between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process.”
So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. “My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-year-old Daniel Lazall. “I always tell them when I’m going out. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiations. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”
One of the researchers comments, “Our astonishment that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s. Now, the situation has changed.”
32. What does the new study show
A. Teenagers are more rebellious. B. Teenagers worry more about studies.
C. Teenagers dislike making family decisions. D. Teenagers have more negotiations with families.
33. What can we know about today’s parents
A. They are stricter than before. B. They are more independent.
C. They give their children more freedom. D. They care less about their children’s life.
34. What does the underlined word “astonishment” mean in paragraph 4
A. Surprise. B. Aim. C. Memory. D. Option.
35. What is the passage mainly about
A. Discussion in family. B. Harmony in family.
C. Teenage trouble in family. D. Teenage education in family.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Become a Morning Person
Everyone knows that early to bed and early to rise is good for health. 36 Here are some ways you can focus on that can help you become a better morning person.
Shift your bedtime.
37 Most people should aim for at least seven hours a night — so you’ll probably need to inch your bedtime forward as you transition (过渡) to a new schedule. You could fall straight into getting up at your desired time every day, knowing that you’ll feel tired during the transition but will naturally start falling asleep earlier within a few weeks.
Relax before bed.
Don’t watch TV or fiddle around (摆弄) with laptops right before you go to bed because they are shining light into your eyes and maybe even tricking your brain into thinking that it’s earlier than it really is. 38 Try not to do anything too stimulating before bed, and instead focus on relaxing activities like taking a bath or listening to comfortable music.
39
The secret to becoming a morning person is exposure to bright light. That’s because light suppresses (抑制) melatonin, a hormone (激素) that plays an important role in circadian (昼夜) rhythm. Natural light is the best, so get outside or open your bedroom window.
Make mornings more pleasant.
Try to schedule something to look forward to in the morning so that getting up feels like less hard. Perhaps a hot cup of coffee, sipped in silence, and the daily crossword puzzle. 40
A. Lighten up.
B. Work up a sweat.
C. It’s important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep.
D. But many people have great difficulty in getting up early.
E. It’s hard to stop surfing the internet late at night if you’re a night owl.
F. Make sure the light around you is not too bright when it’s close to your bedtime.
G. Knowing that something pleasant awaits can help you take that first painful step out of bed.
