We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these d

18、evelopments really improve the quality of our lives Picture this: Youre rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you

19、lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have not telephones, no cars, not ev

20、en any electricity often seem to be happier Perhaps because they lead simpler lives. One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10, and Tomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 194

21、0s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones. The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically, but not mentally.” She believed life was less materialistic. “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes,” She said. The boys said they fought less to figh

22、t over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “trendy（时髦的） , beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.” Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions! Dont be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone

23、at certain times of the day. Dont check your e-mail every day. Dont reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can.

27、After the September 11 terrorist attacks, some high schools in America wanted the students to pledge allegiance（宣誓效忠） to the flag. Is it necessary or not Lets see how the kids think of this requirement. Lea Mouallem, Marymount High School I believe that saying the Pledge of Allegiance is a way of re

28、minding our country that no matter what happens, we are united. I dont think our president wants us to go and join the army now, but he wants to tell us that we will be able to overcome the disaster as a whole nation that is working together. Harry Chin, 15, Culver City High School I am not for the

29、Pledge of Allegiance and I am not against the Pledge of Allegiance because I just say it so many times that it loses meaning. I say it every day at school in the second period. It doesnt mean anything any more. David Tran, 15, Warren High School. The Pledge of Allegiance is another sign of country.

30、We should have some respect to it. In many schools, we dont say the Pledge every morning-we just stand up and let the National anthem ring through the silence. We said the Pledge of Allegiance on Sept. 12. Danny Maryanor, 16, Santa Monica High School I wonder why we were suddenly asked to recite the

31、 Pledge when many of us stopped after elementary school; and the Pledge was recited before the play of “Ode to Joy” （欢乐颂） with recorders. This was not to express patriotism（爱国主义） , or even to remember those who lost their lives on Sept. 11. I feel I cannot support a nation that in this time of crisi

32、s looks outward for revenge（报复） instead of inward for peace. Perhaps we should think more about our problems. 1 Saying the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag first appeared in American schools_. A after Sept. 11, 2000 B before Sept. 11, 2001 C on Sept. 11, 2001 D after Sept. 11, 2001 2 Who were for th

33、e Pledge of Allegiance A Lea Mouallem; David Tran B Harry Chin; Danny Maryanor C Lea Mouallem; Danny Maryanor D Harry Chin; David Tran 3 Which of the following is TRUE A Harry Chin thought the government required them to join the army. B Lea Mouallem thought the Pledge of Allegiance of no meaning. C

34、 Danny Maryanor felt the terrorist attacks happened partly because of Americas own problem. D The Pledge of Allegiance is of another country. 4 According to the passage, it can be imagined that_. A all high school students say yes to the Pledge of Allegiance. B all high school students say no to the

35、 Pledge of Allegiance. C all kids dont agree to the requirement of saying the Pledge of Allegiance. D all high schools will require their students to pledge allegiance to the flag. 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 A 【小题 3】 C 【小题 4】 C Sports is not only physically challenging, but it can also mentally challenging

36、. Criticism（批评） from coaches(trainers), parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has showed that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping

37、or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable. The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain oth

38、er social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware(realize), at all times, that their feedback（反馈） to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters many take their parents and coaches criticisms to heart and find a flaw（缺陷） in themselves. Coache

39、s and parents should also be cautious(careful) that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In todays youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more abou

40、t who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on(pay more attention to) the outcome and find fault with youngsters performances. Positive reinforcement should be provided in spite of the outcome. Research shows that positive reinforceme

41、nt motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress(pressure), which can lead to burnout. 1 According to the passage sport is positive for young people in that_-. A it can help them learn more about society B it teaches them how to set

42、realistic goals for themselves C it enables them to find flaws in themselves D it can provide them with valuable experiences 2 Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes_. A without realizing criticism may destroy their self-confidence B in order to make them remember li

43、fes lessons C believing that criticism is beneficial for their early development D so as to put more pressure on them 3 According to the passage parents and coaches should_-. A help children to win every game B pay more attention to letting children enjoy sports C enable children to understand the p

44、ositive aspect of sports D train children to deal with stress 4 The authors purpose in writing the passage is_. A to persuade young children not to worry about criticism B to emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to children C to discuss the skill of combing criticism with encouragement

45、 D to teach young athletes how to avoid burnout 答案： 【小题 1】 D 【小题 2】 A 【小题 3】 B 【小题 4】 B Whatever our differences as human beings are, we all think were more like the rest of the animal world than we realize. It is said that we share 40 per cent of our genetic（遗传的） structure with the simple worm. But

46、 that fact has helped Sir John Sulston win the 2002 Nobel Prize for Medicine. Sir John is the founder of the Sanger Institute in Cambridge, which was set up in 1992 to get further understanding of the human genome（染色体组 . To help them do this, they turned to the worm. The nematode（线虫类的） worm is one o

47、f the earliest creatures on planet earth. It is less than one millimeter long, completely transparent and spends its entire life digging holes through sand. But it still has lots to say about human life, and what can be done to make it better. What the worm told Sir John and his colleagues was that

48、each of cells in the human body is programmed like a computer. They grow, develop and die according to a set of instructions that are coded in our genetic make-up. Many of the diseases that humans suffer from happen when these instructions go wrong or are not obeyed. When the cell refuses to die but carries on growing instead, this leads to cancer. Heart attacks and diseases like AIDS cause more cell dea
