B

Last weekend, I was talking about winter vacation plans with a friend when I suddenly

realized that this year I should start up an old plan of learning how to skate again.

I’

ve

always wanted to learn skating. But I didn’

t have a proper chance to learn it.

When

I

was

young,

the

small

coastal

city

where

I

lived

had

no

ice

rink

(

溜冰场

).

My

parents

signed me up for classes at a skating school out of town, but I had to catch the early bus

on weekends to get there, and it took two hours

to go and come back, so

I gave it up pretty

quickly.

Now

is

my

chance

to

fulfill

my

childhood

dream!

Excited,

I

started

calling

skating

rinks

in

Beijing,

hoping

to

sign

up

for

lessons.

But

some

said

they

only

had

classes

for

children.

Some

said

it

was

too

much

trouble

to

teach

adults.

One

receptionist

paused

after

my

question

and said strangely, “You never learned this as a child?”

I

understand

if

they

don’t

get

many

adult

learners,

but

to

say

that

adults

are

harder

to teach than children is such a slap in the face. I thought I lived in a society that

encourages

people

to

take

on

lifelong

learning.

Is

there

some

unspoken

rule

that

says

after

one reaches a certain age, he

or she is

not

allowed to learn systematically with a

trainer

anymore? Are adults not allowed to pursue new hobbies?

There

were

many

things

I

didn’t

have

time

to

properly

learn

when

I

was

young.

I

failed

to see how important hobbies were, and I was sick of my parents nagging (

唠叨

) me to do

after-school activities. Today, when I want to go out with friends, I find I have so few

activities

to

do

with

them.

And

now

I’m

being

told

that

I

can’t

even

make

up

for

my

childhood

mistake. It seems that I’ve missed my chance. I missed it 20 years ago. Now, I can only

go on being ordinary.

24.

The author gave up learning skating when she was young because _____________.

A.

she wasn’t interested in it

B.

her parents didn’t allow her to learn i

t

C.

her parents couldn’t find any skating schools

D.

it was inconvenient for her to take the lessons

25.

How did those skating rinks the author called respond to her request?

A. Positively

B. Anxiously

C. Flexibly

D. Disappointingly

26. Which could be the autho

r’s opinion?

A.

It’s never too late to learn.

B.

It ’s understandable that adults don’

t like learning.

C. Adults are harder to teach than kids.

D. Adults had better not pursue new hobbies.

27.

The passage is written to express the author’s

___________.

A. fear of going on being ordinary

B. determination to learn skating well

C. regret for losing the chance of pursuing hobbies

D. bl

ame on her parents’ nagging her to do after

-school activities

C

We

’

re

not

sure

where

letting

children

drink

wine

fits

into

permissive,

authoritarian

and authoritative parenting styles, but a research team from the University of New South

Wales are trying to find it out.

During their study, researchers discovered that kids who were given alcohol by their

parents were more likely to be consuming whole drinks by the time they were 15 or 16, but

were far less likely to binge- drink(

酗酒

).

The

researchers

analyzed

nearly

2,000

Year

7

students

and

their

parents

over

a

four-year

period. They measured the teenagers

’

consumption of whole drinks, their binge drinking

—

consuming

four or

more

drinks

at

a

time,

as

well

as

who

supplied

them

with

the

alcohol:

their parents, friends, or other adults. The study found that when children were given

alcohol from their parents, they were least likely to binge- drink.

But what about the long-reported damage that alcohol can have on developing teenage

brains? Lead author of this study, Professor Richard Mattick, says that giving children

alcohol

at

an

earlier

age

could

serve

as

a

preventative

measure

of

kids

developing

alcohol-related problems later in life.

“

Th ere

’

s a body of research indicating the

adolescent

brain

is

still

developing

well

into

the

early 20s

and

alcohol

may

prevent

the

best

development,

”

says

Professor

Mattick.

“

But

also

we

know

parents

want

to

do

the

right

thing for their children and there has been anecdotal evidence that children introduced

to alcohol by their parents, as is common in some European cultures, may be less likely

to develop problems with alcohol.

”

However,

there

’

s

one

result

from

the

study

Professor

Mattick

can

’

t

ignore:

that

being

given alcohol at an early age by the parents doubled (

使加倍

) children

’

s possibility of

drinking than their peers (

同龄人

).

“

There may be later harms that are not yet obvious,

and

we

’

re

aware

that

an

early

start

of

drinking

is

strongly

associated

with

later

alcohol

use problems in adulthood

—

putting it off is the best strategy.

”

28.

According

to

the

researchers,

kids

supplied

with

alcohol

by

their

parents

will

be______.

A.

more likely to quit drinking in adulthood

B.

less likely to grow into teenage binge-drinkers

C.

more likely to grow into binge-drinkers

D.

less likely to have whole drinks as teenagers

29. Who affected kids

’

drinking behaviors the most in the study?

A. Their parents

Strangers

30. Which statement will Professor Mattick agree with?

A. The brain stops developing before the age of 20.

B. Alcohol won

’

t damage the developing teenage brains.

C. Giving kids alcohol at an earlier age may have its benefit.

D. European kids tend to develop problems with alcohol.

31. On Professor Mattick

’

s advice, parents had better________.

A. let kids drink alcohol at an early age

B. make kids start drinking alcohol late

C. forbid kids to drink alcohol at any age

D. permit kids to drink alcohol at will

An arts program is helping students at some of the lowest performing schools in the

United States. The program, called Turnaround Arts, aims to help improve low performing

schools by adding music and the arts to the usual study program.

Turnaround

Arts

was

launched

by

Michelle

Obama,

the

wife

of

former

U.S

President

Barack

Obama. Some money for the program comes from the federal government. For the students at

participating schools, the program offers a kind of safe place from city neighborhoods.

Many of the children come from areas with high crime rates.

Turnaround

Arts

is

a

partnership

between

the

federal

government

and

private

businesses.

Florence Griffith Joyner Elementary is one of the 68 schools in the U.S. participating in

B. Their friends

C. School authorities

D.

the

program.

Teachers

receive

special

training

and

look

for

ways

to

add

music

and

the

arts

into all the classes. Turnaround Arts schools partner with musicians and actors who work

with

the

students.

Performers

have

included

Yo- Yo

Ma,

Sarah

Jessica

Parker,

Elton

John

and

Cameron Diaz.

School headmaster Long noted “The children were so excited and have been so excited

because it’s not just about —

‘Go to the board. Do the problem. Turn the page. Read the

book’;

it’s

about

acting

and

imitating

artists

and

historic

figures.”

She

noted

how

some

students

got

the

chance

to

act

out

the

process

of

a

caterpillar

(

毛虫

)

becoming

a

butterfly.

“I like to act and I like to sing and I like to dance,” said 10

-year-old Kayla Driakare.

Long said that Turnaround Arts was only in its first year at the school, and teachers

were already seeing results. “We’ve probably suspended

(

暂时停学

) one kid this year.

That’s

amazing,”

she

said.

“Parents

are

getting

phone

calls

to

come

to

family

arts

night,

and

it’s

not

just

the

naughty

calls

home.

It’s

for

th

em

to

come

and

learn

more

about

what

their children are learning. So our parents’

engagement

goes up.”
