Dad didnt care for insects much more than Mamma, but he could tolerate a few living in the basement.

15、Mamma was a city girl and she said a cricket (蟋蟀)was just too noisy. Then to support her point she wouldnt go to bed. She drank coffee and smoked my fathers cigarettes and paced between the sofa and the TV. Next morning she threatened to pack up and leave, so Dad drove to the store and hurried back.

16、 He sprayed poison from a jug. When he was finished he told us that was the end of it. For a couple of weeks we went back to find dead crickets in the laundry. He suggested that wed all be better off to hide as many as we could from Mamma. I fed a few dozen to the cat who I didnt like because he scr

17、atched for no reason. However, soon live crickets started showing up in the kitchen and bathroom. Mamma was upset because she thought they were the dead crickets coming back, but Dad said these were certainly new ones. He fetched his jug of poison and sprayed all over until the whole house smelled o

18、f poison, and then he sprayed the basement again. A couple of weeks later, when both live and dead crickets kept turning up, Dad emptied the basement of junk. Then he burned a lot of old newspapers and magazines which he said the crickets had turned into nests. While we ate supper that evening, the

19、wind lifted some flames onto the wood pile. The only gasoline was in the lawn mowers(割草机) fuel tank but that was enough to create an explosion big enough to reach the house. Once the roof caught, there wasnt much anyone could do. After the fire trucks left, Mamma took the others to Aunt Gails. I hel

20、ped Dad and Uncle Burt carry things out of the house and pile them by the road. We worked into the night and we didnt talk much, while all around the noise of crickets broke our silence. 31.

A. the authors parents got divorced B. the authors family didnt suffer much in the fire C. the authors parent

23、s learned to put up with insects D. the authors family lost their battle against the cricketsBDoesnt it sound crazy? Fans are so excited as Justin Bieber is scheduled to perform at a stadium in Dubai, the capital city of UAE on May 4. In less than 36 hours all the tickets available were sold out. If

24、 you have a teenager lying under your roof, its likely that she has spent your hardearned cash on some concert tickets. Clare Smart, a researcher on teenage development in Dubai, has some idea about the pop phenomenon. “Justin Bieber is a teenager himself and therefore teenagers feel a connection to

25、 him, in the songs that he sings, his hairstyle and how he dresses. He represents what many teenagers would like for themselves, such as the latest clothing trends, exciting travel and high earnings. Whats more, it gives teenagers the feeling of being part of a group and a shared experience with oth

26、er teenagers who have the same interest in a particular celebrity”says Smart. Its easy to be sheltering as a parent and its a good idea to talk to your teenagers about their idols, find out what they like about them and why. “You could accompany your teenagers to a concert or listen along to the lat

27、est song in the car with them, ”suggests Smart. “This shows that you are interested in the things they consider to be important.Sometimes, however, a normal level of interest slips into an obsession(痴迷)and then it becomes a cause for concern. It is now considered a personality disorder, which is clo

28、sely related to higher levels of depression, anxiety and stress. In practice, teenagers who are overly obsessed with stars often have damaged relationships with their parents. The good news, however, is that there is plenty that parents can do to prevent their teenagers from becoming overly obsessed

29、 with those so called celebrities. Let them know what their real life is like behind the story, and they can see these celebrities in a new angle.35.

31、parents often have a tense relationship.B. Parents always have the same interests as the teenagers.C. Parents should understand and protect the teenagers.D. Celebrity worship exist among different age groups.38. If teenagers are overly obsessed with celebrities, they .A. often see themselves as a pa

32、rticular celebrityB. will establish a connection with their idolsC. actually suffer from a personality disorderD. always care too much about their friendsCIt is well-known that priceless undiscovered treasures and antiques may lie a mere 30 feet below the surface in Rome. Therefore, building an unde

33、rground subway in the city of Rome is no easy work. The dilemma is how to build one without disturbing any artifact(古器物) that may lie buried and undiscovered below its large roads and streets.Compared to other European capitals, Romes subway is far less developed. For years, Romes 2.8 million citize

34、ns relied only on two subway lines that fell short of meeting the peoples transportation needs. Being one of the oldest cities in the world, it faces some problems in constructing a new subway line such as the shortage of money, but especially protecting the underground treasures.During the construc

35、tion of the first two subway lines in the 1950s, each excavation exposed archaeological remains and the construction had to be stopped to allow the local archaeologists to check them to see whether the discovery proved valuable to the history of the Romans.After years of debate, the construction of

36、a third subway line was agreed on. Now that the third subway line is under construction, it has been marked as an archaeological survey from the very beginning and great care is being taken. This new line will run through the very heart of the ancient city. It will be 24 kilometers in length and 25

37、to 30 meters below ground.Archaeologists are working together with construction workers to excavate beneath Romes center. Almost immediately, excavation revealed some great finds. Just below the surface, excavators discovered building remains that were torn down in the late 19th century.They dug one

38、 layer deeper, which exposed a 10th centurys road that once crossed the city, and one layer below it, they discovered a sidewalk from the 8th century. Near the ancient Forum, workers discovered a 6th centurys copper factory. The early factory consisted of six small ovens used to work on copper alloy

39、s. Small copper masses discovered at the scene were sent for analysis. The workers also found the base of an imperial Rome public building.There isnt an inch of Rome that doesnt have any artifacts below. Like their ancestors, todays Romans have found a way to protect the old while creating the new.

40、39. What is the main difficulty Romans face when building a third subway line?A. How to get the money needed to construct it.B. How to protect the buried artifacts.C. How to make it popular with tourists.D. How to bring in new technology to construct it. 40. Why is a third subway line expected to be

41、 built in Rome City according to the passage?A. Because its present subway lines fail to meet peoples needs for transportation.B. Because it is the foundation of developing Romes economy.C. Because its officials expect to discover valuable treasures while building it.D. Because its citizens prefer s

42、ubway lines to other transportation forms.41. We can infer from the passage that the building of the third subway line . A. will be impossible because Romans want to protect their artifacts B. is not difficult because of the governments support C. was opposed by some people at first D. was considere

43、d an easy thing42. Which is the best title for this passage?A. Roman ArchaeologistsResearch on Artifacts.B. The Reason Why Romans Want to Build a Third Subway Line. C.

44、DIts not just adults who have a thing or two to discuss with other people, babies too have their own social lives and enjoy group interaction, according to a world-first study. The breakthrough study conducted by psychologist Professor Ben Bradley, at Charles Sturt University, could completely trans

45、form the way child-care centres are set up. In their study, the researchers examined groups of nine-month-old babies in New South Wales and Britain. And they came across surprising results. It was found that infants had “social brains” and focused not just on their mothers but on social life in grou

46、ps as well. “They communicate with more than one baby at once, and show jealousy and generousness,” said Professor Bradley. He added, “They develop their own meanings through group interaction, they notice if a group member is behaving differently and they take on roles, such as leaders and follower

47、s.” “A baby who has a depressed mother tends to be withdrawn ( 内向的 ), but put that same baby in a group of its peers and they behave and interact like any other baby.”It was the first all-baby group study ever to be conducted. “Most studies of babies concentrate on the infant-mother relationship, as

48、suming that is the single foundation for mental health, but babies are constantly involved with groups of people other than their mothers, fathers, siblings, grandparents and those taking care. Therefore, the mother-baby approach needs to be combined with a group approach,” said Bradley.Phoebe Chris

49、tison, a child-care worker at Camperdown Sunshine Bubs in Sydneys inner west, said she often noticed what appeared to be emotional attachments developed between toddlers.She said, “Joel ( 10 months ) and Isabella ( 11 months ) always like to hold hands when they sit in their high chairs and eat.

51、 of child care. D. Its results are hard to believe.44. A baby who has a depressed mother . A. also enjoys group interaction B. tends to be a follower C. pays more attention to its mother D. has poor social ability45. What can be inferred from the result of this study? A. Theres no need of child-care

52、 centers at all. B. Babies are affected by groups more than by their mothers. C. Adults should include babies when having social activities. D. The normal infant-mother bond alone isnt enough for the good mental health for babies.46. The underlined word “toddlers” in Paragraph 8 can be replaced by .

53、A. adults B. groups C. peers D. infantsEWhy does eating raw foods or whole foods become more and more popular nowadays? One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body.Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined f

54、oods. When we cook foods, we destroy the natural enzymes(酶)that are part of the food in its raw form. These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food. When we consume food without these natural enzymes, our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be a

55、bsorbed into the bloodstream. In both instances, the result is obesity. When too many nutrients are absorbed at once, the body grows fat. Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive system, where it becomes increasingly acidic(酸性的). To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste,

56、 the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safely away from the organs.Processed foods contain chemical elements, which might confuse the appetite mechanism(机制) that tells us when weve had enough to eat; as a result, people often overeat . Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle. The b

57、ody will either identify these foods as allergies and then store them safely away from the organs as fat, or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste, which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients headi

58、ng for the bodys cells. The bodys metabolism(新陈代谢) becomes inactive, and then result is weight gain and obesity.The accumulation of acid in the digestive system makes digestion increasingly inefficient. When that happens, even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become more c

59、ommon.To stop this, people need to consume food that will neutralize the acid already accumulated in body. Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help. its also important to restore your enzyme balance. You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulation and consume the

60、foods that increase enzyme production. If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself , you need to take an active approach.47. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To inform people of the harm of processed foods B. To tell the differences between raw and processed foodsC. To adv

61、ise people to eat more raw and whole foodsD. To warn people of the problem of obesity48. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that .A. foods with natural enzymes help people keep fitB. it is essential for people to protect their vital organsC. wed better be cautious about raw and whole foods

62、 D. giving up cooked and refined foods is a new lifestyle49. What is likely to be talked about following the last paragraph?A. Active approaches to avoid acid. B. Suitable types of raw and whole foods.C. Correct ways to cook raw foods.D. Different causes of acid accumulation.50. What can we learn fr

63、om the text?A. Processed foods are good for our appetite mechanism.B. Processed foods also comfort the digestive system.C.
