The world expects us to be grown up but rarely treats us like adults; we are part of a society in which drugs are readily avai

24、lable but extremely dangerous; our education consists of examinations and more examinations.Is it any wonder we struggle at times? One of the biggest problems is that parents demand mature and intelligent behavior from us, yet usually think of us as still being children. We help do a range of housew

25、ork and care for sickly grandparents, but cannot watch adult movies on television. We are expected to show an interest in current affairs and get a part-time job to begin to support ourselves, but are not even allowed a say in where we go for the family holiday never mind being allowed to holiday wi

26、th our friends! Outside the home, we have to make sure our dissatisfaction does not lead us to rebellion and to the dealers who are just waiting to sell us various drugs. Older generations had to come to terms with alcohol and cigarettes; that was easy, by comparison. We go to a club, to dance, then

27、 are faced with temptations(诱惑 ), peer pressures and our own desire to fit in with the crowd. There is always someone there with a designer drink, a designer smile and the latest designer drug to tempt us. Being a teenager has never been harder. Of course, it has never been so hard in school either.

28、 We have so many examinations that it is difficult to keep track: SATs, GCSEs.and the practice tests that accompany them. Homework is never ending. No teacher seems aware of how much work the others are setting, and, anyway, they would not care, because they are all under orders to improve results o

29、r their own careers will suffer. 31 What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? ( A) The tempting drugs that can be easily bought. ( B) The changing world that teenagers have to adapt to. ( C) School education that focuses merely on examinations. ( D) Various problems that teenagers have to deal with. 32 Pare

30、nts will most probably say no to their children if they want to_. ( A) learn current affairs by watching TV ( B) go on vacation with friends ( C) take a part time job while in school ( D) holiday with the rest of the family 33 What does the author mean by saying “Being a teenager has never been hard

31、er“ in Paragraph 3? ( A) Parents are more demanding than ever before. ( B) Teenagers have to try harder to fit into the world. ( C) Teenagers are under greater pressure from peers. ( D) There are more and stronger temptations than before. 34 As is used in Paragraph 4, “the others“ refers to_. ( A) c

32、olleagues ( B) neighbors ( C) parents ( D) students 35 Why do teachers give their students a huge lot of homework and examinations? ( A) They have a strong sense of responsibility. ( B) They intend to inspire students interest in learning. ( C) They are demanded to improve students scores. ( D) They

33、 intend to have students work harder in school. 35 If you like to take lots of vacation, the United States is not the place to work. Besides a handful of national holidays, the typical American worker gets two or three precious weeks off out of a whole year to relax and see the world much less than

34、what people in many other countries receive. And even that amount of vacation often comes with strings attached. So whats going on here? A big reason for the difference is that paid time off is demanded by law in many parts of the world. Germany is among more than two dozen industrialized countries

35、from Australia to Japan that require employers to offer four weeks or more of paid vacation to their workers, according to a 2009 study by the human resources consulting company Mercer. Finland, Brazil and France are the champions, guaranteeing six weeks of time off. But employers in the United Stat

36、es are not obliged under federal law to offer any paid vacation, so about a quarter of all American workers dont have access to it, government figures show. That makes the U. S. the only advanced nation in the world that doesnt guarantee its workers annual leave. Most U. S. companies, of course, do

37、provide vacation as a way to attract and retain workers. But the fear of layoffs and the ever-faster pace of work mean many Americans are reluctant to be absent from the office anxious that they might look like theyre not committed to their job. Or they worry they wont be able to cope with a pile of

38、 work waiting for them after a vacation. Then, theres the way we work. Working more makes Americans happier than Europeans, according to a study published recently in the Journal of Happiness Studies. That may be because Americans believe more than Europeans do that hard work is associated with succ

39、ess. So despite research documenting the health and productivity benefits of taking time off, a long vacation can be undesirable, scary, unrealistic or just plain impossible for many U. S. workers. 36 According to the passage, the United States is a nation_. ( A) that prefers relatively longer vacat

40、ions ( B) that has fewer national holidays ( C) where workers do not have paid time off ( D) where employers are not required to offer paid vacation 37 The phrase “with strings attached“(Para. 1)probably means “_“. ( A) with specified conditions ( B) with full freedom ( C) with many options ( D) wit

41、h work in mind 38 Which of the following countries offers the longest annual leave to its workers? ( A) Germany. ( B) Japan. ( C) France. ( D) Australia. 39 Many Americans are hesitant to take a vacation because they_. ( A) are afraid of losing their jobs ( B) enjoy the fast pace of work ( C) are de

42、voted to their jobs ( D) like the challenges in work 40 According to the author, Americans chance of taking a long vacation is_. ( A) uncertain ( B) slim ( C) good ( D) promising 40 New research suggests that animals have a much higher level of brainpower than previously thought. If animals do have

43、intelligence, how do scientists measure it? Before defining animals intelligence, scientists defined what is not intelligence. Instinct is not intelligence. It is a skill programmed into an animals brain. Rote(机械记忆 )conditioning is also not intelligence. Tricks can be learned by repetition, but no r

44、eal thinking is involved. Scientists believe that insight(顿悟 ), the ability to use tools, and communication using human language are all effective measures of the mental ability of animals. Scientists define insight as a flash of sudden understanding. When a young gorilla could not reach fruit from

45、a tree, she noticed some boxes scattered about the lawn near the tree. She piled up the boxes, and then climbed on them to reach her reward. The gorillas insight allowed her to solve a new problem without trial and error. The ability to use tools is also an important sign of intelligence. Crows use

46、sticks to get nuts out of cracks. The crow exhibits intelligence by showing it has learned what a stick can do. Likewise, seals use rocks to crack open shells in order to get at the meat. Many animals have learned to communicate using human language. One chimp can recognize and correctly use more th

47、an 250 abstract symbols on a keyboard. These symbols represent human words. An amazing parrot can distinguish five objects of two different types. He can understand the difference between the number, color, and kind of object. The ability to classify is a basic thinking skill. He seems to use langua

48、ge to express his needs and emotions. When ill and taken to the animal hospital for his first overnight stay, this parrot turned to go. “Come here!“ he cried to a scientist who works with him. “I love you. Im sorry. Wanna go back?“ The research on animal intelligence raises important questions. If a

49、nimals are smarter than once thought, would that change the way humans interact with them? Would humans stop hunting them for sport or survival? Would animals still be used for food, clothing, or medical experimentation? Finding the answer to these tough questions makes a difficult puzzle even for a large-brained, problem-solving species like our own. 41 As is mentioned in Paragraph 1, “tricks“
