20、rives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just 44 gas. Which driver do you want to be?Winners in life set goals and follow through on them.

I was a farm boy from County Kilkenny, a child who some thought would never walk, let alone go as far as I had in the world.From the day I was born, ther

26、e was a problem. The doctors at the Dublin hospital told my parents I had phocomelia, a deformity that affected both legs below the knees, which were outward and shorter than normal and each foot had just three toes. Life was tough. I couldnt stand, much less walk. I rarely left the farmhouseand the

27、n only in someones arms. Mom bundled me up whenever she took me to town, no matter the season. “The world will see him when he can walk,” she told Dad. “And he willwalk.”Mom devoted herself to helping me. She tried everything to get me on my feet. When I was three, she and Dad took me to a clinic in

28、 Dublin. A few weeks later we returned to Dublin with my artificial limbs (人工肢). Back home I practiced walking with my new limbs.“Theres nothing anyone can do but you cant,” Mom said. “You and I are going to walk through town.”The next day Mom dressed me in my finest clothes. She wore a summer dress

29、 and fixed herhair and makeup. Dad drove us to the church. We stepped out of the car. Mom took my hand. “Hold your head up high, now, Ronan,” she said.We walked 300 meters to the post office. It was the farthest Id walked, and I was sweating from the effort. Then we left the post office and continue

30、d down the street, Moms eyes shining with a mothers pride. That night, back on our farm, I lay exhausted on my bed. It meant nothing, though, compared to what Id done on my walk.Then I began to pursue my dream of singing. And at every step Moms words came back to meRonan, you can do anything anyone

31、else can doand the faith she had in God, who would help me do it.Ive sung from the grandest stages in Europe, to music played by the worlds finest musicians. That night, I stood at the Madison Square Garden, with Moms words chiming in my ears, the same place where Moms promise lived. Then I began si

32、nging. I couldnt feel the pulse of the music in my feet, but I felt it deep in my ear52. What was the problem with the author as a baby?A. He was expected unable to walk.B. He was born outward in character.C. He had a problem with listening.D. He was shorter than a normal baby.53. The underlined wor

34、peration.55. From the story we may conclude that his mother was _.A. determined B. stubborn C. generous D. distinguished56. According to the writer, what mattered most in his success? A. His consistent effort. B. His talent for music.C. His countless failures. D. His mothers promise.( B )When were l

35、ittle, our mother is the center of our attention, and we are the center of hers. So our mothers characteristics leave an indelible(持久的)impression, and we are forever attracted to people with her facial features, body type, personality, even sense of humor. If our mother is warm and giving, as adults

36、 we tend to be attracted to people who are warm and giving. If our mother is strong and even-tempered, we are going to be attracted to a fair-minded strength in our mates.The mother has an additional influence on her sons: she not only gives them clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, bu

37、t also affects how they feel about women in general. So if she is warm and nice, her sons are going to think thats the way women are. They will probably grow up to be warm and responsive lovers and also be cooperative around the house.Conversely(相反), a mother who has a depressive personality, and is

38、 sometimes friendly but then suddenly turns cold and rejecting, may raise a man who becomes a “dance-away lover”. Because hes been so scared（害怕） about love from his mother, hes afraid of commitment（责任、义务） and may pull away from a girlfriend for this reason.While the mother determines in large part w

39、hat qualities attract us in a mate, its the fatherthe first male in our liveswho influences how we relate to the opposite sex. Fathers have an enormous effect on their childrens personalities and chances of marital（婚姻的） happiness.Just as mothers influence their sons general feelings toward women, fa

40、thers influence their daughters general feelings about men. If a father lavishes praise on his daughter and shows that she is a worthwhile person, shell feel very good about herself in relation to men. But if the father is cold, critical(批评的) or absent, the daughter will tend to feel shes not very l

41、ovable or attractive.In addition, most of us grow up with people of similar social circumstances. We hang around with people in the same town; our friends have about the same educational backgrounds and career goals. We tend to be most comfortable with these people, and therefore we tend to link up

42、with others whose families are often much like our own.57. Why do our mothers characteristics leave us an indelible impression?A. Because we are likely to be attached to people with her characteristics. B. Because the mother and her child are the centers of each other when her child is very young.C.

43、 Because our mother is better than our dad.D. Because our mother is a woman who is kind to us.58 Which of the following is NOT true?A. If our mother is warm and giving, we love to be together with warm and generous people.B. If our mother is strong and well-controlled, we are going to be attracted t

44、o a fair-minded strength in our mates.C. Mother not only gives her children clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, but also affects how they feel about women in general.D. Fathers influence their daughters general feelings about men.59. What can we know from Paragraphs 2 and 3?A. The mot

45、her only influences her sons.B. The sons always think women are warm and nice.C. A mother who has a depressive personality is sure to raise a dance-away lover.D. The mother has an additional influence on her sons.60. What does the underlined word “lavishes” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Uses much.

46、B. Uses little.C. Never uses. D. Seldom uses.61. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Mothers influence on their sons. B. Parents influence on their children.C. Parents impression on their children D. Fathers influence on their daughters.( C )People often say, “The hand that rocks the cradle（摇

47、篮）rules the world.” and “Behind every successful man there is a woman.” Both these sayings mean the same thing. Men rule the world, but their wives rule them. Most American women like making their husbands and sons successful, but some of them want more for themselves. They want good jobs, and when

48、they work they want to be paid. They also want to be as successful as men. The American womens liberation movement was started by women who didnt want to stand behind successful men. They wanted to stand beside men and have the same chances for success. They didnt want to be told that certain jobs o

49、r offices were closed to them. They refused to work side by side with men who did the same work for a higher pay. A liberated woman must be proud of being a woman and have confidence in herself. If somebody says to her, “You have come a long way, baby.” She will smile and answer, “Not nearly as far

50、as Im going to go, baby.” This movement is quite new, and many American women dont agree with it. But it has already made some important changes in womens lives and in mens lives, too.62. From the first paragraph, we can learn that _.A. American women usually take care of their children by themselve

51、sB. women in the United States are powerfulC. women play a very important role in mens livesD. if there is no woman, there is no man63. From the passage we know that most American women today are _. A. fighting for their rights to work side by side with menB. working hard at home to help their husba

52、nds and sons be successfulC. working side by side with men in all kinds of jobsD. very confident about their future64. The liberated women want to do all the following EXCEPT _.A. stay at home to help their husbands be successful B. have the same chances for success as menC. get the same pay when do

53、ing the same work as menD. seek for office and do some important jobs as men65. By saying “Not nearly as far as Im going to go”, a liberated woman is stating that _. A. she has nearly got to her destinationB. there is a little more than what she wantsC. she will never get to her ideal destinationD.

54、it is not far enough and she will go a lot further 66. In this passage, the author suggests that in the United States _. A. most women cant get a good jobB. many women still dont want to go out of their home to workC. all families are still supported by menD. all liberated women have achieved a lot(

55、 D )All across the country, kids are heading back to school. Despite advice from the nations secretary of health and human services, recess(课间休息) and physical education have in many schools been cut back or canceled. While most of kids are eager to catch up with friends, the general feeling is that

56、“playtime is over.”Summer vacation does offer most children a bit of free playtime the sort that leads to physical activity and self-organized play, often in short supply during the school year. Still, its not enough. Playtime shouldnt be limited to summer vacation: its important all year.For most A

57、merican children in the past, “going out to play” was the norm（基准）. Today, according to a University of Michigan study, children spend 50 percent less time outside than they did just 20 years ago. There is a direct line between lack of play and some frightening public health and social trends（倾向）: t

58、ragic statistics for obesity(肥胖), 4.5 million children diagnosed(诊断)with attention deficit disorder(ADD) (儿童多动症), an increase in childhood depression and classroom behavioral problems, and an inability to interact well with peers (好友).Just an hour a day of active play running, chasing, games like do

59、dge ball can provide intense skill learning. Physical activity is known to lessen the symptoms of mild attention deficit disorder, and reduces the risk of childhood obesity. Active kids can perform better academically(学业上) in the long term.We should be aware of how important play is to ones developm

60、ent. Even a play-deprived(剥夺）social mammal(哺乳动物) like a rat or monkey will become unable to tell friend from enemy, and poor at handling stress when it enters adulthood. My studies of young murderers indicates that most had lacked normal, developmentally appropriate play as children and pre-adolesce

61、nts. Play is fun, but finally it is also useful. The cleverer the animal, the more they play. For humans, play refreshes us because it gets us in touch with our core selves and the joy of life.I feel sad about the kids who have given up on play for another nine months.
