When
we
’
re
young
and
we
dream
of
love
and
fulfillment
（满足感）
,
we
think
perhaps
of
moon-covered
Parisian
nights
or
Walks
along
the
beach
at
sunset.
No
one
tells
us
that
the
greatest
moments of a lifetime are short, unplanned and nearly always catch us off guard.




Not long ago, as I was reading a bedtime story to my seven-year-old daughter, Annie, I became

1

aware
of
her
focused
look.
She
was
staring
at
me
with
a
faraway,
blank
expression.
Apparently,
completing The Tale of Samuel Whiskers was not as important as we first thought.
I asked what she was thinking about.




“Mommy,” she whispered, “I just can’t stop looking at your pretty face. ”
I almost dissolved
（溶
解）
on
the
spot.
Little
did
she
know
how
many
trying
moments
the
glow
of
her
sincerely
loving
statement would carry me through over the following years.




Not long after, I took my four-year-old son to an elegant department store, where the sweet notes
of a classic love song drew us toward a tuxedoed
（穿晚礼服的）
musician playing a grand piano. Sam
and I sat down on a marble bench nearby, and he seemed as astonished by the pleasant theme as I was.
I didn’t realize that Sam had stood up next to me until he turned,
took my face in his little hands and
said,
“Dance with me.”





If only those women walking under the Paris moon knew the joy of such an invitation made by a
round-checked boy with baby teeth. Although shoppers openly chuckled
（咯咯笑）
and pointed at us as
we glided
（
滑行）
and whirled
（
旋转）
around the open space, I would not have traded a dance with such
a charm
ing young gentleman if I’d been offered the universe.

if she was given the world?




A. Because she knew she wouldn’t be given the universe.





B. Because her son was the most important person to her.




C. Because she thought she was the happiest one at the moment.

On the banks of Tanzania
’
s Lake Eyasi lives the world
’
s last hunter-gatherer tribe
（部落）
—
the
Hadza.
They
don’t
grow
food,
raise
animals
or
build
houses,
instead
they
live
a
life
unchanged
for
more than ten thousand years.




Their world is one of complete freedom
—
something modern society can barely imagine and is
unlikely to ever experience, let alone have the skills to stay alive. Text messages and
phone calls don’t
exist.
Nor
do
cars
and
electricity.
No
jobs,
timetable,
and
social
structures.
No
laws,
taxes
and
unbelievably,
no
money
—

the
closest
thing
to
currency
is
the
trade
for
a
pair
of
shorts
with
a
neighboring tribe.




We spent our time with the Hadze hunting baboons
（狒狒）
, a daily activity for the men. Their
land is packed with sharp bushes, poisonous snakes and man-eating lions.

But a successful hunting
trip is the difference between eating or going hungry.




The Hadze diet consists mainly of honey, fruit and meat. Men often hunt in pairs to shoot animals

2

with
bows
and arrows.
The
Hadze
show
us how
to
track
animals,
from
baboons
to
snakes
to
lions.
They
are
hugely
skilled
with
their
handmade
bows
and
arrows
—

we
have
a
go
and
barely
get
the
arrow to go three feet in front of us.




The language of the Hadze is believed to be the oldest still- spoken language known to man. The
Hadze don’t have conflict, and have no memory of starvation. Their population never
reaches numbers
that cannot be supported through hunting or gathering. They never get from their land more than they
need.




Unlike modern-day office workers, the Hadze enjoy an extraordinary amount of free time. Their
“work” —
hunting for food
—
takes up around five
hours of their day. They’ve been in
such a state of
peaceful existence for thousands of years.
28. We can learn from the text that the Hadze ________.
A. lead a very primitive life












B. live on traditional agriculture




C. have their own system of currency




D. show a lot of interest in new technology
29. Which of the following can describe the Hadze’s environment ?





A. Stressful.






B. Comfortable.




C. Exciting.







D, Dangerous.
30. The relationship between the Hadze and nature _______.




A. is going wrong




B. is full of conflict

C. is in harmony


D. is changing all the time
31. Why does the author come to visit the Hadze?
A. To study their native language.







B. To get to know their way of life.




C. To learn survival skills from them.




D. To persuade them to protect animals.

Fear is hardly a new parental feeling, of course. But the fear of letting our children out of sight for
even a second
—

that’s new. And it feeds not only on reasonable worry but also on
a steady diet of
pressure. “Powerful cultura
l pressures encourage parents to regard every childhood experience from
the standpoint of the worst possible outcome,” says Paranoid

Parenting author Frank Furedi. “To do
otherwise is to be seen as an ‘irresponsible parent.’”





I received an e-
mail about a father who’s following his daughter’s field trip to make sure

she’s
safe, and even a mother in New York City admits that she won’t let her daughter go to the
mailbox
alone as she
’
s afraid someone may kidnap
（绑架）
her daughter. How did this happen?




“TV
,” says Trevor Butterworth, an editor at a media group.

“TV exists to scare you. ”
Thanks to a
steady stream of those stories, it starts to feel as if kidnappings are happening all the time, in any car
near you.
“But they’re not,” says sociologist David Finkelhor. “Crimes
against kids are down to levels
we haven’t seen since the early 70s.”





The fact is, children are 40 times more likely to die in a car accident, and that doesn’t
stop us
from driving them to s
chool. But we blame parents for “letting” anything happen to
their children. The
“sympathetic” TV host will ask, “Why? Why did you let her go to her

piano lesson alone?”





That’s why the story about my nine
-year-old son, Izzy, riding on the subway by himself, struck
people so deeply. But he probably put it best. Like all of us who’d grown up with the
freedom to walk
to a friend’s house and play in a park, he didn’t think it was a big deal.

“It

was fun, ”he said. Plus,
being on national TV meant that he missed math class. Sometimes it really pays to be brave.
32. Frank Furedi’s words in Para. 1 suggest that ________.

A. parents are under pressure to see the dark side of society




B. the fear of kids’ absence is common for parents





C. it’s hard to becom
e a responsible parent




D. people are forced to protect their kids
