It has been argued that an infant under three who is cared for outside the home may suffer because of the separation from his parents.The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from the parents during the sensitive "attachment" period from birth to three may scar (留下疤痕) a child's personality and incline to emotional problems in later life.Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlby's work that children should not be sent to day care before the age of three, and many people do believe this.But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion.

Firstly, anthropologists (人类学家) point out that the hidden love between children and parents found in modem societies does not usually exist in traditional societies.For example, we saw earlier that among the Ngonis the father and mother of a child did not raise their infant alone.But traditional societies are so different from modern societies that comparisons based on just one factor are hard to understand.

Secondly, common sense tells us that day care would not be so widespread today if parents and caretakers found that children had problems with it.But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects.The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be noticed by the use of statistics.Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out, and even if they were, the results would be certain to be complicated and controversial.

Thirdly, in the last decade, there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care, and they have reported that day care had a neutral of slightly positive effect on children's development.But tests that have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue.

1.This passage is mainly talking about________.

    A.children's personality                     

B.advantages of infants' early care

    C.infants' education                    

D.negative effect of infant school

2.The phrase "day care   in the first paragraph probably means_____.

    A.nursing school                          B.baby-sitter

    C.boarding school                         D.primary school

3.According to Bowlby, children under the age of three______.

    A.should not be sent to school

    B.should be cared for outside the home

    C.will not suffer fro m parental separation

    D.don't mind who will look after them

4.The argument against Bowlby's conclusion shows that___.

    A.children have problems with day care

    B.there is no negative effect on infants who go to school before three

    C.there is a long-term effect on infants who go to school before three

科目:gzyy 来源:2010年湖南省高二上学期第三次阶段性测试英语卷 题型:阅读理解

Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive(漂亮的) people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants (被告). But in the executive (行政的;管理的) circle, beauty can become

 a liability.

 While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plain(平常的,不漂亮的) men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.

Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the "manly" qualities required.

This is true even in politics. "When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently," says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them.

 The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.

1.The word "liability" most probably means __________.        

A. disadvantage     B. advantage         C. misfortune       D. trouble

2.In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness ________.       

A. makes women look more honest and capable  B. strengthens the qualifies required

C. is of no importance to women              D. often enables women to succeed quickly

3.Bowman's experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness _______.      

A. turns out to be a disadvantage to men  

B. is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women

C. affects men and women alike       

D. has as little effect on men as on women

4.It can be inferred from the passage that people's views on beauty are often _____.      

A. practical     B. supportive      C. old-fashioned    D. one-sided

5. The author writes this passage to ________________.

A. give advice to job-seekers who are attractive 

B. discuss the disadvantages of women being attractive

C. demand equal rights for women    

D. state the importance of appearance

Are you tired of looking for love in all the usual places? Nowadays, millions of lonely singles are now going online instead.The World Wide Web is quickly becoming the world’s most popular matchmaker.With so many singles online, dozens of dating sites like Yahoo Personals and Match.com are helping singles find that special someone.Around the world, from America to China, love is now very much online.

       Singles are flocking to the Internet mainly because their busy lifestyles leave them little time to look for a significant other.Using dating sites is quick and convenient.They can “meet” a lot more people online than they could by hanging out at a club.Besides , many singles say the regular dating scene has just led them from one bad experience to another and are ready to try something else.They also appreciate the first distance of online dating, which allows them to hide themselves until they are ready to meet someone face to face.Dating sites also make it easy to avoid someone you are not interested in.In the real world, however, ignoring someone you don’t like can be awkward.

       Despite all the advantages, online dating also presents its own set of problems.People aren’t always who they claim to be in their online profiles.For instance, someone who tells you he is “handsome, successful and single” might turn out to be homely, unemployed and married.Safety is another concern.You are just as likely to find a criminal online as you are Mr or Miss Right.

       Even so, supporters of online dating see things in a positive way.In their opinion, singles can safely play the online dating game with a little common sense.Online dating experts recommend following a few safety tips:

       Guard your personal information.Never give out your personal information online.This includes your last name, phone number, home address and place of work.

       Watch for red flags.Do any of the people you are chatting with make disrespectful comments? Do they try to control you? Do they give false information about themselves? If so, forget them!

       Meet in a safe place.When meeting someone in person, choose a public location with other people around.

       Following these tips and you might be able to find the person of your dreams.

According to the passage, many lonely singles don’t appreciate the regular dating scene because it is ___.

       A.unpopular       B.troublesome    C.convenient     D.forgettable

This passage is mainly about   

       A.getting tired of falling in love in a usual way

       B.people with false information on the Internet

       C.new technology to find love through the Interent

       D.web sites such as Yahoo Personals and Match.com

Which of the following is NOT a suitable place for meeting someone you get to know through the Internet for the first time according to the text?

       A.At his/her house.           B.At a museum.

       C.At McDonald’s.      D.At a bookstore.

From this passage ,we can infer that   

       A.there are mostly homely and unemployed people online

       B.the police had better find criminals online

       C.we can find love only through the dating sites

       D.following safety tips ensure a safe online dating experience

Childish Voice

When I was a young child, my parents often told me that it was time to teach a man everything. I didn’t understand and wondered why   36  had such a big influence   37  a person. I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as an adult.But now,   38   I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel   39 to express my own  40   on this saying. I know that I’m just a high school student with very   41  experiences. There are still many things   42  me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.

I once read this sentence: “To make this world a happy place to live, you’d better   43  yourself and your heart , instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about life   44  . There are so many things around us that    45   our will. We can’t force life    46   our wishes. The earth won’t stop turning no matter whether we   47  it or not.

Everyone has his or her own attitude towards life, be it positive or   54  .It doesn’t matter, I think. There is one   55  that should be obeyed—and that’s to make this world better.

The use of the word imitation(模仿) reminds me that we ought to make some more comments on the risk of people imitating what they see on the screen in the way of crime(犯罪) or violence. First there was always a risk of children acting out scenes which could be dangerous. For example, I remember a woman who was head of a middle school telling me that she had happened to look out of her window when the children were on the playground and had seen them putting a small boy on a chair with a rope round his neck and the rope over the branch of a tree; fortunately she was in time to get there before the child was hanged. I remember a film in particular in which the hero who was imprisoned had escaped by electrocuting(通电触死) his guard, the technique of doing this being shown in detail. This was the kind of scene which we could cut for these reasons.

In films for young people and adults we always tried to keep off the screen the details of criminal techniques, such as how to open a locked door with a piece of hard plastic or how to open a safe; if we were consulted(请教) before production, I used to advise that the details should not be shown. When I gave talks in prisons about film checking I had full support for this, since fathers who were in prison for criminal offences did not want their children to get on crime.

Every time I gave a talk in a prison someone used to mention the French film Rififi. made by Jules Dassin in 1954. This remarkable film showed in great detail a robbery of a jeweler’s shop, the robbery lasting about half an hour and being backed by only natural sound...one of the most brilliant film sequences(连续镜头) of all time. I remember our discussion at the time. We thought that the robbery was finished only with the use of advanced and obviously expensive equipment and that only the most experienced and skilled criminals could possibly imitate it; we believed therefore that it was relatively safe. When talking in prisons some years later I learned that there had been several robberies in which the techniques had been copied, so perhaps we were wrong.

31. The writer thinks that____________.

A. the details of the criminal technique should be kept

B. the details of the crime should not be shown on the screen

C. children should not imitate what they see on the screen

D. it is dangerous to imitate what they see on the screen

32. What is the writer’s attitude(态度) towards the film in which the hero had escaped by electrocuting the guard?

A. The writer likes it very much.

B. The writer is strongly against it.

C. The writer thinks the film has some value.

D. The writer does not show his/her attitude.

33. Parents in prison agreed to film checking because______.

A. they did not want their children to follow them

B. the crime on screen could be imitated without difficulty

C. they had given a talk on it

D. they had made mistakes

34 .All the following statements about“Rififi”are true EXCEPT______.

A. that the robbery shown needs experience and skills

B. that some very good tools were used in the robbery

C. that the film showed the technique in detail

D. that the technique of the robbery was not imitated

35. It can be inferred from the passage that______.

A. it is hard for children to tell the differences between real life and the imaginary

B. only people in prison support film checking

C. only children imitate what they have seen on the screen

D. the writer used to advise the details of crime should be shown

Stop eating yourself stupid we all know that poor nutrition can lead to bad health and even weight gain. Now add “lack of intelligence” to the growing list. A recent study has found that what you eat could very likely play a role in how smart you are.

According to the study, rats fed a high-fat diet for 10 days showed signs of weakness and even had trouble finding food that was waiting for them. 1.  Actually a high-fat diet could weaken our intelligence--but so can a low-calorie diet. The trick appears to lie in finding a nice balance.

Here are ways to achieve that happy balance and make you smarter through diet, exercise and improving your brain power.

Figure out how many calories you need to maintain your weight. __2.__ If you need to drop a few pounds, take away the number you get by 400 calories; consume that number of calories each day until you drop the weight.

__3.__Aim for healthy foods that include good amounts of protein, fiber, fruits and vegetables, healthy whole grains, healthy fats and plenty of water. Well! Remember: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Read a book. Try a new recipe. Do some puzzles. __4.__

Exercise regularly with a positive attitude. Aim for at least three 30-minute training sessions a week(but more is better). I like simple exercise such as walking, but anything that raises the heart rate is good. _5._  Combine them! Some people like to listen to classical music such as Bach or Mozart, but rock music lovers will be happy to learn that this kind of music can help make them smarter as well.

A.You may be fond of music, too.

B.Your health depends on your exercise plan.

C.Aim to get this number of calories each day.

D.Don’t forget to exercise your mind while doing so.

E.You may be wondering what this has to do with us.

F.These are all good ways to help increase your intelligence.

G.Eat the right foods in addition to getting the right number of calories.

The word “conservation” has a thrifty meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such a good condition that others may also share the enjoyment. Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials: most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were “limitless” and could “last forever”. Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the others.

Fifty years ago, nature study was not part of school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; wood was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long-term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word “conservation” had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.

For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about correcting the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should be made part of everybody's daily life. To know about the water table (水位) in ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic math formulas(公式). We need to know why all watersheds (上游集水区) need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to give their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, grown trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic(立方体的) volume above the earth. In a word, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.

1.The author's attitude towards the use of natural resources is_________.

A.positive

B.uninterested

C.optimistic

D.critical

2.According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that________.

A.they had no idea about scientific forestry

B.they had little or no sense of environmental protection

C.they were not aware of the importance of nature study

D.they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials

3.To avoid repeating the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ________.

A.we plant more trees

B.natural sciences be taught to everybody

C.environmental education be given to everybody

D.we return to nature

4.How can you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?

A.Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smaller.

B.Our living space should be measured in cubic volume.

C.We need to take some measures to protect space.

D.We must preserve good living condition for both birds and animals.
