I wonder what you’re going to be like to deal with？” That’s often the response Angela Hult gets when people find out she’s an only child，she told ABC News. Despite such negative (消极的) remarks，Hult has decided to have only one child herself. And she’s not alone.‎ According to the US’ Office for National Statistics，women approaching the end of their childbearing years had an average of 1.9 children in 2004，compared with 3.1 for their counterparts in 1976.The percentage of onechild families in Britain had risen from 18 percent in 1972 to 26 percent in 2007.‎ But even though only children are becoming increasingly common，the traditional view that they’re selfish，spoiled and lack social skills holds strong. Even parents of only children，like Hult，are made to feel guilty about having only one child. Worried that they’re being selfish and endangering their child’s future，they flock to online discussion forums seeking advice. Soon，however，they ask themselves：is this social prejudice really reasonable?‎ ‎“There have been hundreds and hundreds of research studies that show that only children are no different from their peers (同龄人)，” Susan Newman，a social psychologist at Rutgers University in the US，told ABC News.‎ This raises another question：why are only children still viewed with such suspicion?‎ ‎“There is a belief that’s been around probably since humans first existed that to have just one child is somehow dangerous，both for you and for the continuation of your race，” Toni Falbo，a professor of educational psychology，told the Guardian.“In the past a lot of children died.You’d have had to be crazy to only have one.”‎ Times，of course，have changed and infant mortality (婴儿死亡率) has largely reduced.So what do only children themselves say?‎ Kayley Kravitz，a blogger for The Huffington Post，grew up as an only child and highly recommends the experience.“Being an only child taught me the most valuable skill of all：the ability to be alone，” she said.‎ ‎25．Which of the following could be the best title for the text?‎ A．Are only children lonely? B．Are only children common?‎ C．Are only children dangerous? D．Are only children different?‎ ‎26．What does Susan Newman mean?‎ A．Only children are as good as their peers.‎ B．Only children are more selfish and spoiled.‎ C．Parents feel guilty about having only one child.‎ D．Parents will endanger their only child’s future.‎ ‎27．What is the common belief since human existed?‎ A．The infant death rate always stays high.‎ B．People are crazy to have only one child.‎ C．It’s easy for only children to earn their living.‎ D．It’s hard to continue the family line with only one child.‎ ‎28．An only child like Kayley________.‎ A．must be difficult to persuade B．can possibly learn to be alone C．should value special skills D．need ignore bad experience ‎ ‎ C If you watch British television on March 15, you might be surprised to see celebrities (名人) wearing funny red noses and joking around. But don’t worry. They’re not mad. It’s all part of a money raising event called Red Nose Day.‎ Founded in 1985 by two British comedians, the aim of the event is to raise money to fight poverty and injustice in the UK and Africa. Celebrities and public figures support the event by making appearances on comic TV shows. For example, UK Prime Minister David Cameron once appeared in a music video by One Direction, which the band produced for the event.‎ Britons don’t just raise money for charitable causes on one day a year, but they do it all year round. One way of doing so is by shopping in charity shops. These small shops sell clothes, books and household goods just like any other shop except that it’s all secondhand.‎ There are nearly 10,000 charity shops in the UK. Their business model is simple: Anybody who has things they don’t want anymore can donate them to a charity shop, where they are checked for damage, cleaned and priced. The money that is made by selling them is used for a charitable cause.‎ The idea of buying used clothes may sound unpleasant, but for shoppers who have less spending money, it has been a welcome option. Now, shopping at charity shops is also becoming popular with young people looking for alternative fashion. “You can find very unique clothes for a very cheap price. It doesn’t bother me that other people may have worn them, I simply wash them before I wear them,” said Anne Marie, a 19-year-old from the US.‎ So next time you spot a charity shop, why not go inside? Who knows, you might find a lovely dress for just a few pounds. Even better, you can enjoy wearing it in the knowledge that your money helped a good cause. ‎ ‎29. Why did Cameron appear in One Direction’s music video?‎ A. To earn a living.‎ B. To support the band.‎ C. To help raising money.‎ D. To entertain the audience.‎ ‎30. Where are the goods of charity shops from?‎ A. Local bands.‎ B. People’s donation.‎ C. British comedians.‎ D. The UK government.‎ ‎31. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. Red Nose Day. B. British celebrities.‎ C. Charity in Britain. D. Secondhand shops.‎ ‎  D Shay asked, “Do you think they’ll let me play?” Shay’s father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son, mentally and physically disabled, were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence.‎ Shay’s father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play, not expecting much. The boy looked around and said, “We’re losing by six runs (分) and the game is in the eighth inning (局).I guess he can be on our team and we’ll try to put him in to bat in the final inning.‎ Shay struggled over to the team’s bench and put on a team shirt with a broad smile and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart. The boys saw the father’s joy at his son being accepted.‎ In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. In the top of the final inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously joyful just to be in the game and on the field. In the bottom of the final inning, Shay’s team scored again. Now, Shay was scheduled to be next at bat. Would they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?‎ Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible. The first pitch (投) came and Shay missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards Shay. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.‎ The pitcher could have easily thrown he ball to the first baseman and Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game .Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the head of the first baseman, beyond the reach of all teammates, The audience and the players from both teams started screaming, “Shay, run to first!” Never in his life had Shay ever run that far but made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked.‎ Everyone should, “Run to second!” Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second. By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team, who had a chance to be the hero for his team for the first time, could have thrown the ball to the second baseman, but he understood the pitcher’s intentions and he too intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman’s head.‎ All were screaming，“Shay，Shay，Shay，all the way Shay.” Shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help him and shouted, “Shay, run to third.” As Shay rounded third, all were on their feet, crying, “Shay, run home！”Shay ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who t won the game for his team.‎ That day, the boys from both teams helped bring a piece true love and humanity into this world. Shay didn’t make it to another summer and died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy and coming home and seeing his mother tearfully hug her little hero of the day!‎ ‎32. Not expecting much, Shay’s father still asked the boy if Shay could play, mainly because the father _________.‎ A. noticed some of the boys on the field were heisting B. guessed his presence would affect the boy’s decision C. learned some of the boys on the field knew Shay well D. understood Shay did need a feeling of being accepted ‎33. In the bottom of the final inning Shay was given the bat because the boys _________.‎ A. believed they were sure to win the game B. would like to help Shay enjoy the game C. found Shay was so eager to be a winner D. fell forced to give Shay another chance ‎34. The smallest boy threw the ball high and far over the third baseman’s head, probably because that boy ________.‎ A. was obviously aware of the pitcher’s purpose B. looked forward to winning the game for his team C. failed to throw the ball to the second baseman D. saw that Shay already reached second base ‎35.. What to you think is the theme of the story?‎ A. True human nature could be realized in the way we treat each other.‎ B. Everyone has his own strength even if mentally or physically disabled.‎ C.
