When we were kidst he always created something surprising for us. Today, however, Dad would say no more,and caught up in the business of our new life, I eventually forgo I about his surprise.‎ ‎ Until one gloomy day the next March when I glanced out of the window, I saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番红花）throughout the front lawn —blue, yellow and my favorite pink, with little faces moving up and down in the cold wind. I remembered the things Dad secretly planted last autumn. He knew how the darkness and dullness of winter always got me down. What could have been more perfectly timely to my needs?‎ ‎ My fathers crocuses bloomed (开花）cach spring for the next five seasons, always bringing the same assurance: Hard times are almost over. Hold on, keep goings and light is coming soon.‎ ‎ Then a spring came with only half the usual blooms and the next spring there were none. I missed the crocuses, so I would ask Dad to come over and plant new bulbs. But I never did.He died suddenly one October day. My family were in deep sorrow, leaning on our faith.‎ ‎ On a spring afternoon four years later, I was driving back when I felt depressed. It was Dad's birthday, and I found myself thinking about him. This was not unusual-my family often talked about him，remembering how he lived up to his faith. Suddenly I slowed as I turned into our driveway. I stopped and stared at the the lawn. There on the muddy grass with small piles of melting snow, bravely waving in the wind, was one pink crocus.‎ ‎ How could a flower bloom from a bulb more than years ago, one that hadn't bloomed in over a decade? But theic was the crocus. Tears filled my eyes as I realized its significance.‎ ‎ Hold on, keep going, and light is coming soon.

They asked US participants in two related studies about parents lying to their children-either for the purpose of promoting appropriate behavior or to make them happy.‎ ‎ In one of the studies, many parents reported they told their young children that bad things would happen if they didn't go to bed or eat what they were supposed to. Other parents repotted inventing magical creatures. One explained, “We told our daughter that if she wrapped up all her pacifiers (橡皮奶嘴）like gifts, the fair ‎ would come and give them to the children who needed them.” ‎ ‎ In the other study, the researchers surveyed college students' recollections about their parents’ lying and obtained similar results: parents often lie to their children even as they tell them that lying is unacceptable.‎ ‎ The researchers refer to this practice as “parenting by lying”. “We are surprised by how often parenting by lying lakes place.” said LEE. Though Heyman thinks that there are occasions where it is appropriate to be less than truthful with a child, she urges parents to think through the issues and consider alternatives before using lies.‎ ‎ “Children sometimes behave in ways that are disruptive or are likely to harm their long-term interests» said Heyman.4tIt is common for them to try out a range of strategies, including lying, to stop them. However, parents should be concerned about the possible long-term negative consequences to children's beliefs about honesty.”‎ ‎28.The subject of parental lying .‎ A.was not allowed to be researched in the past ‎ B.attracts little attention because it is common ‎ C.hasn't got many published results about it ‎ D.is becoming more and more popular ‎29.What does Heyman think of parental lying? ‎ A.It is a great parenting strategy.‎ B.Parents should think twice before using it.‎ C.It usually does more good than harm.‎ D.Parents should do something to make up for it after using it.‎ ‎30.Parents usually when their young children don't go to bed properly.‎ A.turn off the bedroom lights and play some music ‎ B.shout at them loudly ‎ C.shut the door and let them alone ‎ D.make up some magical creatures to let them believe ‎ ‎31.In which part of a newspaper would you most probably find the passage?‎ A.Business. B. Education. C. Technology. D. Fashion.‎ D ‎ “Did you hear what happened to Adam Last Friday Lindsey whispers to Tori.‎ ‎ With her eyes shining. Tori brags，“You bet I did, Sean told me two days ago.”‎ ‎ Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedmam, I can tell you that what they alre saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true. Still，Lindsey and Tori aren't very different from most students here at Linton Higt School, including me. Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话).I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people，it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.‎ ‎ An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic-breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.‎ ‎ If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? The answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor(传言 )can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don't. Similarly, hearing (he latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.MIn other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).‎ ‎ Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The do's and don'ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.‎ ‎ The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. Hie next time you feel the urge to spread the. latest news, things about why you want to gossip and what ‎ effects your “juicy story ”.might have.‎ ‎32.The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to .‎ A. introduce a topic B.present an argument C. describe the characters D. clarify his writing purpose ‎33. An important negative effects of gossip is that it .‎ A. breaks up relationships B. cinbarraises the listener C. spreads information around D. causes unpleasant experiences ‎34.1n the anther s opinion, many people like to gossip because it .‎ A.gives them a feeling of pleasure ‎ B. help them to make more friends C.makes them better at telling stories ‎ D. enables them to meet important people ‎35.Professor David Wilson think that gossip can .‎ A. provide students with written rule B. help people watch their own behaviors C. force school to impove student handbooks D. attract the polices attention to group behaviors 第二节（共5小题；每小题 2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ For college students，graduation signals an exciting new beginning. 36 Many students wonder: What do I do now? What career is best for me? Most expert advice on choosing careers boils down to the following points.‎ ‎ Knowing Yourself ‎ What are your interests? Abilities? Skills? 37 The results may surprise you! These can be useful, but they're not the last word.‎ ‎ Investigating ‎ Investigating occupations is much more difficult. For most people, there isn't just one ‘right’job, but several that could be satisfying. 38 Talk to people who have occupations that interest you. Find out what they like and dislike about their job.‎ ‎ 39‎ ‎ Many people choose their careers because they believe strongly in a particular cause. Some might choose to work in areas like medicine, charity or environmental protection. Some have a strong interest in history or a love for the arts. 40 So in cases like these, the field is often chosen first, rather than the occupation itself. So if you've chosen a field, self-assessment will help you find your place in it Invest some time and effort, and find the right career for you.‎ A. Try a self-assessment quiz.‎ B. Search through books and Web sites.‎ C. Finding your place.‎ D. But it can also bring a lot of uncertainty and confusion.‎ E. Serious research helps narrow the possibilities F.
