A
Seventy-three-year-old George McNeilon selected his food in Value Mart very carefully. After leaving the cashier, he estimated (估计) that he had saved 80 cents and thought that he had got good value for his money again.
At the exit, the chilly wind reminded him of his gloves. “Now where are they?” He searched here and there, but nowhere could he find them. He was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. The worried man made a second search in all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. He was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store.
George bought the gloves at a 25% discount, for just $30, ten years ago. They were genuine lambskin (小羊皮), soft, warm and durable. Until then, he had worn cheaper man-made material that lasted no more than three years. His impulsive decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year. He enjoyed being envied.
Bad luck, George thought, to lose his expensive gloves on New Year’s Eve. He reentered the store and followed the same route he had walked before. But several minutes of anxious search turned out to be in vain. “Society has changed. People have changed …” he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if people picked up something lost, they would give it back.”
Back home, George was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. If he bought cheap ones, he would have to replace them very soon. If he bought new leather ones, they would cost forty dollars.
After the holiday, poor George decided to buy another pair of leather gloves. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office.
“What color are they?” the woman in the office asked. “Black,” he answered.
She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves. “Are they?”
“Yes! Those are mine!”
1. Which of the following is the most probable reason for George’s shopping? A. To kill time in Value Mart as usual. B. To prepare for the coming New Year. C. To prove how wise he was with money. D. To see whether there were gloves on sale. 2. What do we know about old George McNeilon? A. Pure but impolite. B. Clever but simple. C. Economical but vain. D. Warmhearted but poor. 3. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. In daily life, accidents will happen. B. Never ever jump to conclusions. C. A penny saved is a penny earned. D. A loss may turn out to be a gain.
B
Twenty-five years ago, as a parent educator, I began reading about the dangers of praise. I was completely shocked by what I was learning: praise is not good for our kids. How could that be? So I spent years talking with experts, reading about the effects of praise, and finally decided to close the door on praise and focus on building an encouraging family.
Even today, with many studies available to parents, I still hear people say, “How can that be? How can saying ‘Good job’ or ‘You’re smart’ be bad?” I understand. It can be a difficult habit to break.
If we tell a boy “You are so smart!” when he brings home an A in his math test, how does he feel when he comes home with a D? If we’ve told him that he is smart, then he will more likely feel a failure when he struggles with homework — “I’m supposed to be smart. Why can’t I do this?”
Praise trains children to depend on constant feedback on what a “great job” they are doing. This dependency shatters rather than builds children’s confidence. Praise trains children to ask, “Do you like it?” “Did I do a good job?” “Are you proud of me?” They begin to believe that what others think is more important than what they think about their achievements and mistakes.
Praise breaks the relationship between parents and children. Without even realizing it, parents may be using praise as a tool to direct the child’s behavior. The message is clear — I approve of you when you … and I do not approve of you when you … Living with this kind of constant judgment can damage not only the child’s confidence but also the relationship.
The solution to the problem of praise is encouragement. Encouragement can be given at any time, to anyone, in any situation. It is a comment, an acknowledgment, a statement that focuses on effort, improvement or choice. Hearing “You are so smart!” can leave a child at a loss when they don’t do well in a test. Using “That took a lot of work to come home with an A in your test …” gives a child the chance to be something else. 4. What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs? A. Many parents can’t get on well with their children. B. The author never shows any approval to his children. C. It’s hard for many parents to believe praise is harmful. D. The author spent 25 years changing people’s opinion on praise. 5. According to the passage, it seems that parents’ praise ______. A. can lead to children’s being smart B. might have just the opposite effect
C. is a good tool to educate their children D. helps them get along well with their children
6. Which of the following is a good example of encouragement? A. You are very good at math.
B. You are the best artist I have ever seen. C. You have a problem and you have to fix it.
D. You didn’t think you could finish in time, but you did.
C
The number of giraffes is becoming smaller across Africa, according to the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. The total population has dropped by 40 percent in the last 15 years. Surprisingly, even scientists haven’t given much attention to giraffes. We are learning more about their ecology, but what we know is still way behind what we know about other species. “It’s a silent extinction,” said Dr. Julian Hennessy, a wildlife scientist.
“The main reason for the smaller number of giraffes is their loss of living places,” said Hennessy, “as an increasing part of land is used for farming. But hunting also has a big influence.” You might wonder why hunters would focus on giraffes. First of all, once a giraffe is brought down, there is lots of meat with a small amount of effort. Besides, there is another thing encouraging the hunting. In Tanzania, Hennessy says, the latest word on the street is that eating giraffe meat could cure AIDS. Fresh giraffe heads and bones can be sold at prices of up to $140 per piece.
Another widespread misconception about giraffes is that they are everywhere. Look at kids’ books which are full of giraffes. They are always in zoo collections. They can be seen easily, so you don’t think we have to worry about them. But the truth is that they are in danger of extinction. There is a lack of right and true data.
Hennessy and other researchers are now pulling together the data needed to improve the situation of the entire giraffe species and all nine subspecies (亚种). The information will be used to change the giraffe’s listing on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, which now lists the species as of “least concern” but two subspecies as “endangered”. “It’s a lot of work to gather the necessary information,” Hennessy says. “And several other giraffe subspecies will be recommended for endangered listings next year or the year after.” He hopes that the world will finally start to take notice of how endangered these beloved animals have become. 7. By saying “It’s a silent extinction”, Hennessy tells us that ______. A. giraffes are unpopular in Africa B. the giraffe is always silent in daily life
C. the ecology of Africa needs more attention D. the extinction occurs without enough attention
8. What has caused the high price of giraffe meat in Tanzania? A. The country’s custom. B. The illegal international trade.
C. The cost of hunting a giraffe. D. The idea that it’s a cure for AIDS. 9. The misconception in Para. 3 can be corrected by ______. A. preventing illegal hunting in Africa B. rewriting kids’ books about giraffes C. providing reliable data about giraffes D. spreading scientific knowledge of AIDS
10. The final purpose of Hennessy’s great effort is to ______. A. collect more information about giraffes B. raise public awareness of protecting giraffes C. prove giraffes will disappear in the next few years
D. work with the International Union for Conservation of Nature

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
How old is “old”? ______11______ Two hundred years ago, you were old at 35. That was the average life then. At the turn of this century, as medical knowledge advanced, the average life span(长度) increased to 45. In 1950, 70-year-olds were really old. Today, a healthy 70-year-old is looking forward to many more active years.
So, how old is old? The answer is one you’ve heard many times, from all sorts of people. “You are as old (or young) as you feel!” The calendar(日历) simply tells you how many years you have lived. ______12______ Once an unknown author wrote,“ ______13______. Nobody grows old by living a number of years; people grow old by giving up their goals.”
______14______. Alice Brophy, when she was with the New York City commission for the Aging, said, “It upsets me when people say, ‘Gee, you look young for your age!’ What does that mean? Is there some model that you’re supposed to look a certain way at 65 and 75 and 85? You know you can die old at 30 and live young at 80” There are many wrong ideas about aging. ______15______. Here are some of the more common ones. For example, most older people are in poor health, or older people are unable to change. A. It’s extremely terrible to be grown old.
B. Youth is not a time of life but it is a state of mind. C. These ideas stereotype(固化) people on the basis of age. D. Old is a point of view.
E. Older people are stubborn, unable to change. F. The answer has changed over the years. G. Your body tells you how well you’ve lived.
