What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and an

26、other person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or

27、 an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up brig

28、ht and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that h

29、e or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”56. The words “intellige

30、nt” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _ while “dull” in the second paragraph means _.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless57. According to the context we can

31、guess that a genius is _ while an idiot is _.A. a normal person; a funny person B. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person58. A person _ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often t

32、hinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use59. It is better for parents _.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. t

33、o give their children as much help as possibleBMany animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells goo

34、d or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.Although there are ma

35、ny different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda（大熊猫）eats only one particular type of bamboo（竹子）. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly（蝴蝶）will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there a

36、re plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet（多样化饮食）. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season. Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food becau

37、se we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right

38、food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life. 60. We can infer from the text that humans and animals _. A. depend on one sense in choosing food B. are not satisfied with their food C. choose food in similar ways D. eat entirely different food61. Which of the following eats only one ty

39、pe of food?A. The white butterfly. B. The small bird.C. The bear. D. The fox. 62. We can learn from the last paragraph that _. A. food is chosen for a good reason B. French and British food is goodC. some people have few choices of food D. some people care little about healthy diet C If you wish to

40、become a better reader, here are four important points to remember about rate, or speed, of reading:1. Knowing why you are readingwhat you are reading to find outwill often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for

41、 making or doing something, arithmetic problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories meant

42、 for enjoyment, news, and letters from friends, items, or bits of news from local, or hometown, paper, telling what is happening to friends and neighbors.4. In some of your readings, you must change your speed from fast to slow to fast, as you go along. You need to read certain pages rapidly and the

43、n slow down and do more careful readings when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.63. According to the passage, your reading speed depends on _.A. whether the reading material is easy or difficult B. what you are readingC. what your purpose in reading something is D. both B and C64.

44、 If one wants to be relaxed by reading, one should take up _.A. a story book B. a book on science and technologyC. news, letters from friends D. some material full of information65.

46、om now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Todays leading killers,

47、such as heart diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to d

48、ecide the final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broke

49、n by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so o

50、n-in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic conditional human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.67.

54、here is no point learning. 71 It is by constantly repeating words and phrases until they all start to make sense. The same is needed by people who are trying to learn a foreign language. There are many different things to do for each of the four parts of language learning._72_ If you are learning Fr

84、。他是怎么做到的呢？二十年后我才有勇气（courage）去问他这个问题。37. 当初父亲戒酒时，全家人都担心他有朝一日会反复。take up意为开始做某事，逻辑不对。38. 每当父亲可能继续酗酒时，大家都如坐针毡似的（be on pins and needles）。get into a situation陷入一种处境。39. start sb. doing sth. 使某人开始干某事。40. 有好几年我们不敢（be afraid to）提起这个话题，担心父亲重新酗酒。41. 此处填reply与下文的question相呼应。42. 原来，父亲戒酒成功的秘诀在于每天反复背诵这首诗来提醒自己。rem

85、inder提醒物。43. 从来没有（never）什么事情如此困难以致于做不到（这里指决心戒酒一事），关键在于意志是否坚定。44-45. 父亲与我分享（shared）这首诗，这首诗语言浅显（simple）但寓意深刻，发人深省。它也成为了我日常生活中不可或缺的一部分（part）。48. 这份礼物是关于名言警句的一本书。这本书为一年中的每一天都列出了（listed）警言。50. 下文There, on my birthday, was the exact same poem说明作者迫切地想知道自己生日那天会有什么样的提醒。51. hurriedly（匆忙地）一词能够恰如其分地描绘出作者当时的心情。52. what引导宾语从句。我急于知道什么样的生日提醒在等待着我。in store表示贮藏着，准备着。53. 我翻到11月10日那一页时，首先是非常惊奇(astonished),然后不相信和感激的泪水夺眶而出。54. roll down滚落下来。55. 这首诗帮助我父亲戒掉了酒，走过了这么多年。这也注定要使我受益匪
