Fifty is supposed to be my father’s age. but now I am stuck with this number and everything it means.

I find myself moving toward what is ahead with a curious blend ( 混合) of both fighting and accepting my aging, hoping that the philosopher(哲学家) was right when he said . ”Old is always fifteen years from now. ”

    Looking back on  my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made.  Although we were all brought up in the same way,my br others and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them,I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.
    Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents,aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects.
    I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm had led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people's observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.
    But curiosity,a keen eye,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding  and essential qualities required is self?discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist, up to a certain point,can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two,you get the best of both worlds.
    1.The first paragraph tells us the author .      
    A.was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood 
    B.lost his hearing when he was a child
    C.didn’t like his brothers and sisters    
    D.was born to a naturalist’s family
    2.The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because         .
    A.he didn’t live very long with them   
    B.the family was extremely large
    C.he was too young when he lived with them  
    D.he was fully occupied with observing nature
    3.It can be inferred from the passage that the author was         .
    A.a scientist as well as a naturalist   
    B.a naturalist but not a scientist
    C.no more than a born naturalist        
    D.first of all a scientist
    4.The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he         .
    A.has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic
    B.lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist
    C.just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries
    D.comes up with solutions in a most natural way

    Most mornings, the line begins to form at dawn: scores of silent women with babies on their backs, buckets balanced on their heads, and in each hand a bright-blue plastic jug. On good days, they will wait less than an hour before a water tanker goes across the dirt path that serves as a road in Kesum Purbahari, a slum on the southern edge of New Delhi. On bad days, when there is no electricity for the pumps, the tankers don’t come at all. “That water kills people,” a young mother named Shoba said one recent Saturday morning, pointing to a row of pails filled with thick, caramel (焦糖)-colored liquid. “Whoever drinks it will die.” The water was from a pipe shared by thousands of people in the poor neibourhood. Women often use it to wash clothes and bathe their children, but no­body is desperate enough to drink it.
    There is no standard for how much water a person needs each day, but ex­perts usually put the minimum at fifty li­tres. The government of India promises (but rarely provides) forty. Most people drink two or three litres—less than it takes to wash a toilet. The rest is typically used for cooking and bathing. Americans consume between four hundred and six hundred litres of water each day, more than any other people on earth. Most Europeans use less than half that. The women of Kesum Purbahari each hoped to drag away a hundred litres that day—two or three buckets’ worth. Shoba has a husband and five children, and that much water doesn’t go far in a family of seven, particularly when the temperature reaches a hundred and ten degrees before noon. She often makes up the difference with bottled water, which costs more than water delivered any other way. Sometimes she just buys milk; it’s cheaper. Like the poorest people every­where, the people of New Delhi’s slums spend a far greater percentage of their incomes on water than anyone lucky enough to live in a house connected to a system of pipes.
    46. The underlined word “slum” most likely means ______.
    A. a village      
    B. a small town
    C. an area of a town with badly-built, over-crowded buildings
    D. the part of a town that lacks water badly
    47. Sometimes the water tanker doesn’t come because ______.
    A. the weather is bad
    B. there is no electricity
    C. there is no water
    D. people don’t want the dirty water
    48. A person needs at least ________ litres of water a day.
    A. a hundred          B. four hundred         C. forty          D. fifty
    49. Which of the following statements is wrong?
    A. a hundred litres of water a day is enough for Shoba’s family
    B. Americans uses the largest amount of water each day
    C. in Kesum Purbahari milk is cheaper than bottled water
    D. Shoba has a family of seven people
    50. The passage mainly tells us ______.
    A. how women in Kesum Purbahari gets their water
    B. how much water a day a person deeds
    C. that India lacks water badly
    D. how India government manages to solve the problem of water

    When my daughter was five, we gave her a piano as her birthday gift, with great excitement; she began learning piano under the teacher’s guidance. However, when she was no longer curious about it, she became sick of it. After all, it is a tough job to learn piano, not to mention the daily routine of practice. Therefore, every time, I had to urge her again and again, either to force or offer her some profits for the practice. She always felt uncomfortable sitting on that stool, so she would either scratch her nose or ears, or hide in the bathroom for quite a long while.

    Her first teacher left and moved somewhere else; my friend introduced me to an American teacher. The American teacher’s way of teaching was complete American style. After practicing, she would give my daughter some good comments on the excellent part (despite it being just a small one), and then point out what should be improved. What’s more, every time she came, instead of beginning the lesson right away, she would first play some music. She said, “To learn playing the piano, you should learn not only the skills of playing, but more importantly, to feel the music and love it.”
    To my surprise, my daughter gradually became fond of piano lessons. Sometimes she even would like to show off a little bit in class after her skill had reached a certain level. Her confidence and sense of achievement were enhanced with the appreciation and acknowledgement from her teachers and classmates.
    Surprisingly, my daughter said to me one day, “Mom, I was lucky because you didn’t give up my piano lessons.Learining piano is like climbing a mountain. You’ll feel tired when you are on the way. When you look down from where you are, you will realize that you have been making progress. But if you stop, you will never take one more step.” Hearing these inspiring words, I could not hold back my tears, thinking: that is the very thing I want to teach her, something that is more important than learning piano.                                     
    56. My daughter __________ when she was not curious about piano.
    A. became sick         B. got tired of it        C. felt tired          D.felt relaxed
    57. According to the passage, what is most important for the children to learn to play the piano _______
    A.praise            B.encourage           C.force             D.help
    58. What made my daughter interested in piano again?
    A. Showing off in class.                        B. Her skillful performance.
    C. Her confidence and sense of an achievement.     D. Her acknowledge from classmates.
    59. What is best title of the passage?
    A.Piano is an useful instrument                  B. American teachers are excellent.
    C.Playing the piano is very important             D. Be addicted, and you’ll succeed
