牋 From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they "know" all the words they are reading. This means that when they don't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.
牋 燨ne day soon after school had started, I said to them, "Now I'm going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that's enough for me. Also I抦 not going to ask you what words mean. "
The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, 揗r Holt, do you really mean that? I said just as seriously, 揑 mean every word of it.
牋 燚uring the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk. From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, "It can't be." and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick, in edition with woodcuts. I said, "Don't you find parts of it rather heavy going?" She answered, 揙h, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part. "
牋 This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is, an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of "understanding" that can be dug out of a book!
34. According to the passage, children's fear and dislike of books may result from 牋牋牋牋 .
A. reading little and thinking little B. reading often and adventurously
C. being made to read too much D. being made to read aloud before others
35. Upon hearing the teacher's talk, the children probably felt that 牋牋牋牋 .
A. it sounded stupid B. it was not surprising at all
C. it sounded too good to be true D. it was no different from other teachers' talk
36.Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?
A. She skipped over those easy parts while reading.
B. She had a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.
C. She learned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.
D. She turned out to be a top student after coming to this school.
37. From the teacher's point of view,牋牋牋牋 .
A. children cannot tell good parts from bad parts while reading
B. children should be left to decide what to read and how to read
C. reading is never a pleasant and inspiring experience in school
D. reading involves understanding every little piece of information
C
Next week, Pushpa Nagaraj will appear for her 720th exam. But she won抰 be taking the exam for herself.燬ince 2007, she has helped hundreds of visually challenged students take exams by acting as their scribe (抄写员), reading them the questions and then writing down the answers they give.
When Ms. Nagaraj was growing up in Bangalore, the IT capital of India, her father lost his job after a back injury. The family suddenly found itself struggling. She thought she抎 have to drop out of school. Luckily, her mother managed to raise enough money to educate her through high school. Today, she抯 a project coordinator for an IT firm.
One day, as she was helping a few visually damaged children cross the road, it struck her how difficult even everyday tasks could be for them, let alone finishing their education. Ms. Nagaraj wanted to help those children.
In India, most children with sight challenges do not have access to specialized schooling. Even for those who attend mainstream classes, timed exams key for Indian educational institutions, where scores are especially important present additional difficulties. 揗any of them balk at the thought of writing exams and drop out, says Ms. Sundararaman, a local education expert. 揂nd so, their education comes to a sudden stop, midway. Having a scribe can be the difference between passing and failing.
Over the past 12 years, word about Ms. Nagaraj抯 work has spread so much that she now gets requests from people from all over India. She has also set up a network of volunteers that posts requests through a WhatsApp group.
Ms. Nagaraj is keenly aware of ongoing challenges, chief of which is that, every once in a while, she has to refuse requests from students to give them the answers during exams. Another challenge is to expand the circle of scribes. Despite these, she is very grateful for having the opportunity to help others. 揑 have no complaints. Actually, I feel very blessed, she says.
38.What do we know about Ms. Nagaraj from paragraph 2?
A. She suffered from a back injury.
B. She struggled to finish her high school.
C. She raised enough money from an IT firm.
D. She had to work to help support her family.
39.What does the underlined word 揵alk in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Become hesitant. B. Feel unsatisfied.
C. Are hopeful. D. Are surprised.
40.What challenge does Ms. Nagaraj have to overcome?
A. The limited number of scribes.
B. The large quantity of exams to take.
C. The request to copy answers in the exam.
D. The building of a network of volunteers.
41.What抯 the text mainly about?
A. An Indian woman breaking the record in taking exams.
B. The importance of setting up an organization for scribes.
C. The problems of students dropping out of school in India.
D. An Indian woman helping disabled children by being a scribe.
D
In the mid-1980s, a study compared mtDNA from people around the world. It found that people of African descent (后裔) had twice as many genetic differences from each other as did others. Because mutations (基因突变) seem to occur at a steady rate over time, scientists were able to conclude that modern humans must have lived in Africa at least twice as long as anywhere else. They now calculate that all living humans descend from a single woman who lived roughly 150,000 years ago in Africa, 揈ve. If geneticists are right, all of humanity is linked to Eve through an unbroken chain of mothers. This Eve was soon joined by “Y-Chromosome (染色体) Adam”, the genetic father of us all, also from Africa. DNA studies have confirmed that all the people on Earth, with all their shapes and colors, can trace their ancestry to ancient Africans.
What seems certain is that at a remarkably recent date梡robably between 50,000 and 70,000 years ago梠ne small group of people, the ancestors of modern humans outside of Africa, left Africa for western Asia, either by migrating around the northern end of the Red Sea or across its narrow southern opening.
Once in Asia, genetic evidence suggests, the population split. One group stopped temporarily in the Middle East, while the other commenced a journey which would last tens of thousands of years. Moving a little further with each new generation, they followed the coast around the Arabian Peninsula, India, and Southeast Asia, all the way to Australia. ''The movement was probably unnoticeable,'' says Spencer Wells. ''It was less of a journey and probably more like walking a little farther down the beach to get away from the crowd.''
Although archaeological evidence of this 13,000-kilometer (8,000-mile) migration from Africa to Australia has almost completely disappeared, genetic traces of the group that made the trip do exist. They have been found in the DNA of native peoples in the Andaman Islands near Myanmar, in Malaysia, and in Papua New Guinea, and in the DNA of nearly all Australian aborigines (土著). Modern discoveries of 45,000-year-old bodies in Australia, buried at a site called Lake Mungo, provide some physical evidence for the theories as well.
People in the rest of Asia and Europe share different but equally ancient mtDNA and mutations. The mutations which they possess show that most are descendants of the group that stayed in the Middle East for thousands of years before moving on. Perhaps about 40,000 years ago, modern humans first advanced into Europe.
42. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A. Mutations occasionally take place over time
B. Modern humans probably have only one ancestor.
C. Modern humans must have lived in Africa for a shorter time than anywhere else.
D. Scientists confirm all of humanity is linked to Eve with physical evidence.
43.What happened to the first group of humans that moved from Africa into Asia?
A. Most of the migrants turned back into Africa.
B. They separated into two groups.
C. Most of the migrants moved directly into Europe.
D. They stayed in the Middle East for tens of thousands of years.
44. Which of the following is cited(引用 ) as evidence for the great migration to Australia?
A. Discovery of human remains in Australia
B. DNA of people in Southeast Africa
C. DNA of immigrants to Australia
D. Discoveries from modern societies in Asia
45.The title for this reading could be _______.
A. Finding Y-Chromosome Adam
B. Who were the First Humans?
C. The Discovery of DNA in Africa
D. Migrating Out of Africa

With time and experience, most adults know that not getting enough sleep can be harmful to us. Too bad, teens don抰 see that connection so clearly. It抯 up to parents to convey the importance of sleeping enough. _____46____
Play up the positives. Sometimes it helps to point out the benefits that come with changing behavior. In this case, not only will quality sleep help teens focus better in school and feel happier overall, but it can also improve the appearance of their skin. ____47_____
Lay stress on consistency (连贯性). A lot of teenagers, and even grown-ups, think they can spend less time on shut-eye during the week if they make up for it on the weekend. Not true.

Give the hard facts. _____49____燭hat抯 why it抯 so important to explain what it feels like to be too tired to get behind the wheel. Promise your teen that he can always call you to pick him up no爉atter where he is or what time it is, if he抯 too sleepy to drive.
?_____50____?Sleep isn’t as fun as texting with friends and it seems less necessary than cramming for an exam. Help your teen view sleep as a priority by making it one in your own life as well.
