I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he should concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again. I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me. I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate when he stood up. Could he be more intent while standing up?‎ This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success. This child would have the discipline（纪律）to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.‎ Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality traits（特点）, and all you can do is loving and accepting them. As parents, throughout their growing years and beyond that, we ‎ need to be our kids’ best cheerleaders，guiding them and helping them find their way.‎ I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate. Obviously, he is concentrating just in his own way and not mine. We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things. Some way may have worked for me but doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations. There is nothing sweeter than being individual and unique. It makes us free and happy and that’s just the way I want my kids to live their own life.‎ ‎24．At the beginning, the author tried to keep his son seated in order to make him .‎ A．finish his homework on time B．keep silent in the room C．pay more attention to his study D．get right answers ‎25．Inspired by the case of his son, the author began to doubt .‎ A．the old form of education B．the importance of parents C．the relationship between kids and their parents D.the good grades of some kids ‎26．According to the passage, which of the following statements is RIGHT?‎ A．We should help kids correct their wrong ways. ‎ B．Parents should love and accept their kids.‎ C．Parents should study their kids’ DNA. ‎ D．Kids should be taught to behave themselves.‎ ‎27．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?‎ A．Study Hard and You’ll Be Successful. ‎ B．Be Friendly to Your Children.‎ C．Parents’ Help with Their Children’s Study. ‎ D．Children’s Success in Their Own Style.‎ ‎ ‎ C US scientists say they have poured cold water on the theory that washing hands with hot water kills more germs (细菌) than unheated water. The small study of 20 people found using water at 15℃ (59F) left hands as clean as water heated to 38℃ (100F).‎ National Health Service (NHS) recommends that people wash their hands in either cold or warm water. In this study, scientists at Rutgers University-New Brunswick wanted to find out if popular assumptions about the benefits of warm or hot water and official guidance on hot water — given to the food industry in the US — held true. They asked 20 people to wash their hands 20 times each with water that was 15℃ (59F), 26℃ (79F) or 38 ℃ (100F). Volunteers were also asked to experiment with varying amounts of soap. Before they started the tests, their hands were covered in harmless bugs. Researchers say there was no difference in the amount of bugs removed as the temperature of the water or the amount of soap changed.‎ Prof Donald Schaffner said: “People need to feel comfortable when they are washing their hands but as far as effectiveness goes, this study shows us that the temperature of the water used did not matter.”‎ However, the researchers accept their study is small and say more extensive work is needed to determine the best ways to remove harmful bacteria.‎ In the UK, NHS experts say people can use cold or hot water to wash their hands.‎ ‎ They say hands should be washed for at least 20 seconds and stress the importance of using enough soap to cover the whole surface of the hands. Their guidance focuses on rubbing hands together in various ways to make sure each surface of each hand is clean.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined phrase “poured cold water” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?‎ A. Supported. B. Disagreed. C. Created. D. Accepted.‎ ‎29. After they washed their hands with either hot or cold water, .‎ A. volunteers all didn’t feel very comfortable B. volunteers all talked about American food industry C. volunteers still had much germ on their hands D. volunteers nearly had the same amount of germ removed ‎30. How do the researchers feel about their study?‎ A. It is popular. B. It is convincing. C. It is incomplete. D. It is abstract.‎ ‎31. Which of the following is the best title for the text? ‎ A. Using Cold Water Instead of Hot Water. ‎ B. How to Use Cold Water to Wash Hands.‎ C. It Is Better to Wash Hands in Cold Water. ‎ D. Washing Hands in Cold Water as Good as Hot.‎ D Bangkok, Thailand, is known for having some of the best street food in the world. But officials have announced plans to ban(禁止) food vendors (摊贩) in an effort to clean up the city. An assistant to Bangkok's governor told The Nation newspaper the move meant to improve the appearance, walkability (可步行性) and safety of city streets.‎ ‎“The street vendors have seized the pavement space for too long and we already provide them with space to sell food and other products legally in the market,” the assistant said. “So there will be no let-up in this operation - every street vendor will have to move out.”‎ Bangkok was recently named the world’s finest street food location for the second year by Cable News Network (CNN).‎ Vendors can be found in all of Bangkok’s busiest areas.

He lives in a part of the city where street vendors will be some of the first to be removed. He told The Associated Press that, “Even people who eat at pricey restaurants every day can’t avoid street food. It’s faster, tastes better, and costs less than half the price.”‎ Critics of the street food clean-up campaign say low-income people - including food vendors and their customers will be most affected by the ban. They have called on the government to do more to help the vendors keep their businesses going in a legal way.‎ Ubolwattana Mingkwan is a coffee vendor in Bangkok. She charges 85 cents for a cup of coffee. She says she cannot afford the cost of rent required to do business in a government-approved area. “I’ve asked city officials for help and understanding,” she told The Associated Press. “All they say now is ‘No, no, no.’ They’ve already received their orders.”‎ ‎32. Why do the officials want to ban street vendors?‎ A. To force them to leave.‎ B. To remove street food.‎ C. To keep the city in order.‎ D. To offer convenience to residents.‎ ‎33. How does the author think of the street vendors in Bangkok?‎ A. They pollute the air in the city.‎ B. They usually sell unhealthy food.‎ C. They earn too little to support themselves.‎ D. They play an important role in daily life.‎ ‎34. What’s the problem with government-approved areas for street traders?‎ A. Their rents are too high for them.‎ B. They will make food hard to sell.‎ C. They are controlled by the government.‎ D. No one will go there for food.‎ ‎35. What’s the writer’s attitude towards the move in Bangkok?‎ ‎ A. Subjective B. Objective C. Positive D. Negative 第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ People all have good days and bad days. And some of the bad days happen due to events beyond your control. 36 One way to increase the possibility that you have a good day is to join “gratification(喜悦)” activities, which you enjoy and you’re good at. 37 However, if you don’t have the type of job, you can take part in other activities and find the same result.‎ ‎ 38 There are many little pleasures you can add to your life, such as tea, a warm bath, a walk in the park and so on. As long as you enjoy them, they can really brighten your every day. Laughter is also part of having a good day. That’s why it’s important to do what you can to create joy for you. 39 After all, if you are humorous, you can more easily center on fun things.‎ If you don’t have much time, one way can be used during a stressful day. 40 You should achieve this by making your plan flexible and checking that everything in your plan is necessary. Being busy is okay, but wasting time and energy on too many unnecessary things can just lead to stress.‎ A. Often, bad days come from overweight stress.‎ B. Some people experience joy and happiness at work.‎ C. Good moods enable us to notice more chances.‎ D. Life’s pleasures are also able to add a quick lift to your mood.‎ E.
