(
阅读理解
) I was
sitting in my kitchen. My mom stood in front of
me, hardly keeping the tears from
spilling over. She told me that my
three-year-old cousin had cancer. Hearing this, I
went completely
numb. How could this be
happening? I had just seen her, and she was fine.
These things didn’t
happen to our family, that’s what my
uncle said. It seemed like the world turned upside
down; just
last
week
my
grandmother had
passed
away.
I
felt
like I
couldn’t
get
my
feet
on
solid
ground.
That’s when my sister,
Madi, came down the stairs with her long brown
hair freshly washed. She
sat next to me
and smiled. Despite what was happening, everything
would work out, her smile
seemed to
say.
“Mom, do you think I
could get my hair cut tomorrow?” Madi asked.
“Sure,” Mom
said, starting to wash the
dishes.
“
I want to donate it
to Locks of Love
”
Madi smiled.
My
mom
stopped washing and turned to look
at her.
“
Are you
sure?
”
I noticed
that Mom was holding
back tears. This
was a sacrifice(
牺牲
) for
Madi. Her long hair was an important part of her.
“Yeah,
it’s just
hair. Eventually it will grow back.” She said.
“All right,” Mom said quietly, smiling again.
Madi gave up a part of
herself for a while. She let a piece of herself go
to someone else, someone
she didn’t
know. That day she became my hero too.
21. On hearing 3-year-old
cousin had cancer, how did the author feel?
A. Puzzled
B.
Shock
C. Afraid
D. Worried
正确答案：

22. What can we know from

23. Where did the
conversation happen?

24. What can we know about
Madi?
A. She
was kind and willing to help others
B.
She liked smiling, but didn’t love cooking.
C. She made her mother
regret her hair.
D. She didn’t like wearing long hair
again.

Psychologists have
discovered that even the most independent-minded
of us will
conform to social pressure
when we are with a group of people. In one classie
experiment, people
were showna vertical
line and asked to find a line of identical length
from a selection of three.
You might think that this is an
absurdly easy task, and when people perform it by
themselves
they do it very well.
However, psychologists have discovered that we are
very easily swayed by the
opinions of
other people when we do this task in a group. In
one study, a group of three people
was
set
up,where
two
of
the
people
were
confederates(
同伙
)of
the
the
confederates
deliberately gave wrong answers,people were often
swayed to give the wrong answer
also.
In fact, 75% of people gave at least one wrong
answer, with some people conforming to peer
pressure on every occasion.
But why do people conform in this way?
In an easy task like this,
it seems that people do
not want to step out of line with the
prevailing opinion of the group. On more difficult
tasks, people
also conform because they
lose onfidence in their own ability to make
decisions and prefer to trust
the
majority opinion instead.
A
typical example of this kind of conformity arises
when we come across people in distress.
Would you help a woman who has been
attacked in the street?It turns out that you are
much more
likely to go to her
assistance if you are other people are also
around,a diffusion of
responsibility
occurs. People are paralysed into inaction,
because everyone assumes that someone
else will go to the woman' s
assistance.
25. In Paragraph
1, the underlined word
”
A.
seek independence

experiment described in Paragraph 2? To

C. train the confederates of the
experimenter as independent-minded
D. describe how people would be
influenced by the opinions of others

Dyslexia is a problem
that restricts the ability to recognize words and
connect sounds
with letters when people
read. People with this learning disorder may also
have problems when
they write. Dyslexia
is not related to eyesight or intelligence. The
problem involves areas of the
brain
that process language. Brain scientists are
studying whether they can predict which young
children
may
struggle
with
reading
to
provide
them
with
early
help.
John
Gabrieli
at
the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
is leading the study of five-year-old in about
twenty schools
in the Boston
area.
They studied in the
schools with
kindergartens
．
And for all
the children joining in the study,
they
give them a brief set of paper-and-pencil tests to
look at which children appear to be at some
risk for struggling to read. So far,
fifty of them have been examined in a scanner, a
special machine,
to show brain
activity. Written tests are not always able to
identify dyslexia or other problems,
while brain scans may offer a more
scientific way to identify problems. And with
reading problems,
early identification
is important. When it comes to helping children
overcome reading difficulties,
the
younger the child, the more effective they
are.
Reading
problems are not usually identified until a child
is in the third or fourth grade. The
later
children
are
recognized
as
poor
readers
，
the
less
treatment
can
help.
And,
as
Professor
Gabrieli points out, poor reading can
make education a struggle. Reading is everything.
Even math
and science have
textbooks.
While the
children are given tasks related to reading, the
brain scans measure the extent to which
certain parts of the brain become
active while the children do the work. The
scientists say they are
pleased with
early results from the study, but have a long way
to go.

Owning a smartphone
may not be as smart as you think. It may let you
surf the
Internet, listen to music and
snap photos wherever you are…but it also turns you
into a workaholic,
it seems.
A study suggests that, by giving you
access to emails at all times, the all-singing,
all-dancing
mobilephone adds as much as
two hours to your working day. Researchers found
that Britons work
an additional 460
hours a year on average as they are able to
respond to emails on their mobiles.
The study by technology retailer
Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is
between 9 and 10
hours, but a further
two hours is spent responding to or sending work
emails, or making work calls.
More than
90 percent of office workers have email-enabled
phones, with a third accessing them
more than 20 times a day. Almost one in
ten admits spending up to three hours outside
their
normal working day checking work
emails. Some workers confess they are on call
almost 24 hours
a day, with nine out of
ten saying they make work emails and calls outside
their normal working
hours. The average
time for first checking emails is between 6 am and
7 am, with more than a third
checking
their first emails in this period, and a quarter
checking them between 11 pm and
midnight.
Ghadi Hobeika,
marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability
to access literally millions of apps,
keep in contact via social networks and
take photos and video as well as text and call has
made
smartphones invaluable for many
people. However, there are drawbacks. Many
companies expect
their employees to be
on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and
smartphones mean that
people literally
cannot get away from work. The more constantly in
contact we become , the more
is
expected of us in a work capacity(
容量
).
