         Parents and kids today dress alike, listen to the same music, and are friends. Is this a good thing?
    Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and
    talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his
    parents when he was a teenager.    
        "I would never have said to my mom,' Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?'" says Ballmer. "There was just a complete gap in taste."  
        Music was not the only gulf (分歧). From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier
    generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.    
        Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are
    comfortable and common. And parent-child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust
    and friendship that can continue into adulthood.
        No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, "To my mother, my best friends."    
        But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents.    
        "There's still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change
    happening," says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. "In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents."    
        Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving(演化的) roles and attitudes. They see
    the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more
    democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.    
        "My parents were on the 'before' side of that change, but today's parents, the 40-year-olds,were on
    the 'after' side," explains Mr. Ballmer. "It's not something easily accomplished by parents these days,
    because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be
    a parent now."
    1. Generation  2. separate/different  3. unlikely/unwilling  4. exists  5. similar
    6.common    7. respect  8. Lead/Contribute  9. confused/puzzled 10.difference

        A recent study, which was published in last week's Journal of the American Medical Association,
    offers a picture of how dangerous it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed, a 16-year-old driver
    with three or more passengers has three times the possibility of a serious accident, compared with a
    teenager driving alone.
         The authors also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased greatly after 10 p.m., and
    especially after midnight. With passengers in the car, the driver was even more likely to die in a late-night
    accident.
         Robert Foss, a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center, says
    the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with "really stupid behavior" than with just a lack of driving experience. "The basic issue is that adults who are responsible for giving out licenses fail to
    recognize how complex and skilled driving is." he says.
         Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to mitigate (使缓解) the problem is to have
    states set up so-called graduated licensing systems, in which getting a license is a process with several
    stages. A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove himself able to drive in the presence(在场)
    of an adult, followed by a period of driving with night of passenger restrictions (限制) before graduating
    to full driving rights.
         Graduated licensing systems have reduced teenage driver crashes, according to recent studies.
    1.Which of the following situations is most dangerous according to the passage?
    A. Adults giving a lift to teenagers on the highway after 10 p.m.
    B. A teenager driving after midnight with passengers in the car.
    C. Adults driving with three or more teenage passengers late at night.  
    D. A teenager getting a lift from a stranger on the highway at midnight.
    2. According to Robert Foss, the high death rate of teenage drivers is mainly due to _____.
    A. their lack of driving experience
    B. their frequent driving at night
    C. their wrong way of driving    
    D. their driving with passengers
    3. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following statements is TRUE?
    A. Teenagers should spend more time learning to drive.
    B. Driving is a skill too complex for teenagers to learn.
    C. Restrictions should be forced on teenagers demanding to take driving licenses.  
    D. The licensing department is partly responsible for teenagers' driving accidents.
    4. A suggested measure to be taken to reduce teenagers' driving accidents is that _____.
    A. the licensing system should be improved
    B. they should be forbidden to take on passengers
    C. they should not be allowed to drive after 10 pm
    D. driving in the presence of an adult should be made a rule

          If your recurring (经常性的) dreams are worryingyou,you can rest assured and needn't worry.
    Psychologists say in the vast majority of these cases,this is just the mind's way of dealing with stress and
    conflicts,problems and concerns.It's a good thing.
        They call be surprisingly vivid and real,or fragmented and weird.They can be comforting or frightening.
    Our dreams can tell us a lot about what we are really thinking.Dreams give us an x-ray of our
    unconsciousness(潜意识).They tell us,particularly when we are at life's passages or turning points.
        Lisa Oppenheim had the same dream whenever she was about to move to a new home or a new city.
    It's always just a feeling of needing to stay safe.Experts say disturbing dreams often occur around major
    life events.For Lisa,it was moving.For others,it can be marriage or divorce,the death of a loved one or
    pressure at work.
        Doctor Siegel has studied the meaning of dream for nearly 30 years.He believes stressful or upsetting
    dreams can be a sign of what's buried deep inside our minds.
        He said."Dreams are important to survival.They are crucial to the balance of our psyche(心灵).They
    help us work out problems that we're having every single day.They go to the cutting edge of what's
    stressful,what's bothering us and what we're working out in our lives.Dreams can guide us and in order to
    find that guidance,to find that deep source of wisdom that's in our dreams every night,we need to pay
    attention to our dreams."
        But many dreams are scary and horrible.How can we understand these nightmares? Doctor Siegel
    says they are reflecting especially intense emotion or unresolved conflict.The stronger the emotion in the
    dream,whether it's pleasure or fear,the likelier the dream is to be important.
        Knowing what your recurring dreams or nightmares mean can be liberating.Some nightmares can be a
    sign of serious psychological problems,such as post-dramatic stress disorder.If they are extremely
    disturbing or violent or the cause of severe anxiety,you should see a professional therapist (治疗专家).

         Honey (蜂蜜) from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most
    people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a
    wild bees' nest (巢) and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult
    to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and
    unexpected helper一a little bird called a honey guide.
         The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房).
    The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest,
    it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing
    animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the
    curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower
    reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and
    the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.
         Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts
    to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive
    whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax
    candles are being lit.
    1. Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?
    A. It's small in size.
    B. It's hidden in trees.
    C. It's covered with wax.
    D. It's hard to recognize.
    2. What do the words "the follower" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
    A. A bee.                          
    B. A bird.
    C. A honey seeker.                    
    D. A beekeeper.
    3. The honey guide is special in the way____________.
    A. it gets its food
    B. it goes to church
    C. it sings in the forest
    D. it reaches into bees' nests
    4. What can be the best title for the text?
    A. Wild Bees
    B. Wax and Honey
    C. Beekeeping in Africa
    D. Honey-Lover's Helper

         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 to Do Well in Exams
         Do not underestimate the power of revision in the days and hours before an examination. The closer
    you are to the exam, the more chance you have of storing and retaining crucial information. But do not
    overdo it. _1_ An effective daily routine can help you through an exam period, so in the days leading up
    to your first exam, get into the habit of being up and ready to work by game. It can be a shock to the
    system after months of working to your own timetable to be mentally alert at that time if you have not
    prepared for it.
         On the day of the exam, have a good breakfast, pack two of everything you need (pens, pencils,
    erasers, etc.),then make your way to the examination hall in good time. _2_.
         Once in your seat, simply pause for a few seconds and collect your thoughts. Close your eyes and
    take in a few slow, deep breathes to help you relax. When you turn over the test paper, spend a short
    period reading through all the instructions and questions, paying particular attention to key verbs such as
    "discuss", "compare" and "evaluate"._3_ It is wise always to allow for 10 minutes at the end of the exam
    to give yourself time to go back over your answers. Once you have selected the questions you wish to
    tackle, begin by attempting the one you think is your strongest. It will give you more confidence when
    you see a well-answered question down on paper. Also remember to write clearly, and do not be afraid
    to express the unexpected: after all, examiners can get very bored marking stereotypical answers.
         _4_If you do need something else focus on to help collect your thoughts, choose a fixture in the room,
    such as the ceiling or anything else that will not allow you to be distracted (分神).
         Finally, once you have finished, never hang around outside afterwards to attend the discussion by
    other students._5_
    A. Do not arrive too early, though, as other people's anxiety can be contagious (会传染的),
         and you may suffer from undue panic.
    B. Try not to be tempted to look at those around you, or at the clock.
    C. When you get home, read the examination paper through and look up all the words you
         didn't understand.  
    D. Sleep, exercise and relaxation are all just as important.
    E. Map out a quick plan of points you wish to make and how much time you should
        spend on each question.
    F. Go and have a well-earned rest, then prepare for your next exam
    G. Underestimate the test in your mind.

    few years before, according to US Embassy. Concerns: There're a lot to prepare. The
    TOFEL, GRE... It's longer time to apply to US universities than schools in the UK or
    Australia.

         NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences.
    Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often the
    experiences in nightmares appear repeatedly.
         Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget
    bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it
    might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories.
         In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body
    releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far, the research has suggested that only the
    emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. They are not
    sure to what degree people's memories are affected.
         The research has caused a lot of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.
    Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They
    say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.
         "Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them
    in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a
    professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."
          But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people's memories and
    changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid
    the mistakes of the past.
         "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are.
    I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out." said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist (伦理学家).
    1.The passage is mainly about        .
    A. a new medical invention
    B. a new research on the pill
    C. an argument about the research on the pill
    D. a way of wiping out painful memories
    2. The drug tested on people can        .
    A. cause the brain to fix memories
    B. stop people remembering bad experiences
    C. wipe out the emotional effects of memories
    D. prevent body producing certain chemicals
    3.We can infer from the passage that        .
    A. Experts are not sure about the effects of the pills.
    B. the pill will certainly stop people's emotional memories
    C. taking the pill will do harm to people's physical health
    D. the pill has already been produced and used by the public America
    4.Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph?
    A. some memories can ruin people's lives.
    B. people want to get rid of bad memories.
    C. experiencing bad events makes us different from others.
    D. the pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.

         Monarch butterflies (黑脉金斑蝶) are a common summer sight in the northern United States and Canada.
    These large orange and black insects (昆虫) brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers.
    What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate (迁飞)-all the way to California or Mexico
    and back. They are thought to be the only insect that does this.
         Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south. Those heading for Mexico go first
    for the Louisiana-Mississippi area, then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas. Once in Mexico, they settle
    themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees. Each place provides a winter
    home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees. When spring
    comes, they begin their long journey north.
         The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year. And the answer
    is no. The average monarch lives about nine months. So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then
    die. The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky; the eggs of the next generation may end up in
    Wisconsin or Michigan. The last generation of the season, about the fourth, will make their way back to Mexico
