It’s not easy being a teenager---nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.
Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll refuse to talk. Instead, let him attempt to solve things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy(隱私). Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions.
Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation (節(jié)制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.
小題1:Why is it not easy being a teenager or a parent of a teenager?
A．Because the teenager is very naughty.
B．Because the parent always expects a lot from the child.
C．Because you can make your child feel hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself.
D．Because the teenager wants his or her own space.
小題2:The main purpose of the text is to tell parents       .
A．how to get along with a teenager B．how to respect a teenager
C．how to understand a teenagerD．how to help a teenager grow up
小題3:The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager        .
A．to use the phone in a sensible wayB．to pay for his own telephone
C．to share the phone quicklyD．to answer the phone quickly
小題4:What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?
A．Not allow him to learn driving or take drugs.
B．Give him advice only when necessary.
C．Let him have his own telephone.
D．Not talk about personal things with him.

Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450 million years, long before dinosaurs appeared. There are now about 360 species of sharks, whose size, behavior, and other characteristics differ widely.
Every year, we catch and kill over 100 million sharks, mostly for food and for their fins. Dried shark fins are used to make shark fin soup, which sells for as much as $50 a bowl in fine Hong Kong restaurants. Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear. Sharks are vulnerable(易受傷的) to overfishing because it takes most species 10 to 15 years to begin reproducing and they produce only a few offspring（后代）.
Influenced by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters. This is far from the truth. Every year, a few types of shark injure about 100 people worldwide and kill about 25. Most attacks are by great white sharks, which often feed on sea lions and other marine（海洋的） mammals. They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their normal prey, especially if they are wearing black wet suits.
If you are a typical ocean-goer, your chances of being killed by an unprovoked（非受挑釁而發(fā)生的）attack by a shark are about 1 in 100 million. You are more likely to be killed by a pig than a shark and thousands of times more likely to get killed when you drive a car.
Sharks help save human lives. In addition to providing people with food, they are helping us learn how to fight cancer, bacteria, and viruses. Sharks are very healthy and have aging processes similar to ours. Their highly effective immune system allows wounds to heal quickly without becoming infected, and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research.
Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost never get cancer and eye cataracts（白內(nèi)障）. Understanding why can help us improve human health. Chemicals taken from shark cartilage（軟骨）have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals, research that someday could help prolong your life.
Sharks are needed in the world’s ocean ecosystems. Although they don’t need us, we need them. We are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us. For every shark that bites a person, we kill one million sharks.
小題1:Which of the following is NOT a reason why people kill sharks?
A．People kill sharks for food.
B．People kill sharks for sport.
C．People kill sharks out of fear.
D．People kill sharks because they often attack swimmers.
小題2:According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．There are many different species of sharks, but only a few of them are dangerous to humans.
B．Sharks never get ill.
C．Sharks are a valuable resource for human.
D．Sharks play an important role in the ocean ecosystem.
小題3:It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A．movies have given people the wrong impression of sharks
B．most sharks are dangerous to humans
C．sharks will attack anyone who is wearing black
D．it is dangerous to swim in the ocean
小題4:The underlined word “prolong” in the last but one paragraph means ______.
A．saveB．protectC．lengthenD．improve
小題5:The best title for the passage would be _______.
A．Are Sharks Dangerous?B．Sharks And Humans
C．Sharks: Humans’ FriendsD．Sharks Help Save Human Lives

How Do Animals Catch their ZZZ's（打鼾聲）？
Different creatures have developed some pretty creative ways to get their rest and stay safe． The lizard likes to sleep at the far end of small branches hanging out over a pond or lake in the rain forest． If a snake tries to slither up the branch to eat it, it will shake the branch and knock the lizard off, and the lizard will fall safely into the water． Chameleons can change color to match their surroundings in order to hide even while sleeping．
Gorillas like to sleep high in the trees． They build a new bed every night, sometimes taking up to half an hour to pile branches, twigs, and leaves into a comfortable bed． Birds also find it safe to sleep in the trees, but unless they have eggs or young chicks, they don't use a nest． They just lock their feet around a branch and hang on． A special tendon in their legs is automatically tight when they are at rest, so they won't let go and fall．
Dolphins live underwater, but must come to the surface to breathe． Scientists now believe that dolphins may sleep with only half their brain, while the other half stays awake to keep them safe and breathing． Seals also do this, lying on their sides on the surface of the water with one flipper underwater paddling to keep their noses above the surface． Some ducks may also have this ability, and actually sleep with one eye closed and one eye open．
小題1:How does a chameleon protect itself while sleeping?
A．By changing its body colors
B．By hanging out over a pond．
C．By sleeping with half their brain．
D．By making beds with branches．
小題2:Why will not birds fall when they are at rest?
A．They build nests and sleep in them．
B．They fall asleep automatically．
C．They have a loose tendon in their legs．
D．They lock their feet around a branch．
小題3:How do dolphins breathe?
A．They breathe underwater．
B．They come to the surface to breathe．
C．They breathe underwater or come to the surface to breathe．
D．We don't know．
小題4:What does the writer intend to tell us?
A．The cleverest animal is the gorilla because it can make beds．
B．Differences in habitat can lead to different living habits．
C．The ways animals catch their ZZZ's are pretty much the same．
D．In order to protect themselves most animals choose not to sleep

Scientists from South Korea are trying to convert（轉(zhuǎn)化）sound waves into electricity. The research could lead to charging a cell phone from a conversation or providing energy to the nation’s electricity system generated（產(chǎn)生）by the noise during rash-hour traffic.
“Just as speakers transform electrical signals into sound, the opposite process —turning sound into a source of electrical power — is possible,” said Young Jun Park and Sang-Woo Kim, the joint authors of a new article in the journal Advanced Materials.
Harvesting energy from phone calls and passing cars is based on materials known as piezoelectrics. When bent, piezoelectric materials turn that mechanical energy into electricity. Lots of materials are piezoelectric: cane sugar, quartz （石英）and even dried bone which could create an electrical charge when stressed. For decades, scientists have pumped electricity into piezoelectric materials for use in environmental sensors, speakers and other devices.
Over the past few years, however, scientists have made dramatic advances in getting electricity out of piezoelectric devices. In an experiment, by using sound waves, which at 100 decibels（分貝）were not quite as loud as a rock concert （a normal conversation is about 60-70 decibels）, the South Korean scientists produced a mild electrical current of about 50 millivolts（毫伏）. The average cell phone requires a few volts to function, several times the power this technology can currently produce.
“But the real question is whether there is enough surrounding noise to act as a power source as for a cell phone,” said McAlpine, a leading scientist. A consumer probably wouldn’t want to attend a rock concert or stand next to a passing train to charge his cell phone. The South Korean scientists agree but they expect to get a higher power output as they continue their work.
小題1:According to the two South Korean scientists, ________.
A．sound waves can travel faster than electricity
B．new materials can send cell phone signals better
C．using cell phones adds to heavy traffic in rush hour
D．electricity and sound can be transformed into each other
小題2:We know from the passage that piezoelectric materials ________.
A．can produce electricity when stressed
B．a(chǎn)re good at changing electricity into sound
C．can reduce the noise of passing cars
D．have been widely used in phones and cars
小題3:It can be inferred from the South Korean scientists’ experiment that ________.
A．it is hard to change sound into electricity under current conditions
B．it is impossible to make use of loud sound
C．the technology has a long way to go to have a practical use
D．the technology can power cell phones easily
小題4:What McAlpine doubts about the technology is ________.
A．the noise pollutionB．the sound resource
C．the cost of piezoelectricsD．the safety of devices

Animals Can Sense Natural Disasters
Among the dead in South Asia’ s tsunami（海嘯）were many tourists at Sri Lanka’ s national wildlife park at Yala. But very few of the park’s animals — elephants, buffaloes, monkeys and wild cats — appear to have died. There are theories that animals can sense natural disasters and run away to safety.
First, it’s possible that the animals may have heard the quake before the tsunami hit. The underwater burst produced sound waves known as infrasound（次聲）. Humans can’t hear infrasound, but many animals including dogs, elephants, tigers and pigeons can.
A second early warning sign the animals might have sensed is ground vibration（震動(dòng)）. The great quake would have produced vibrational waves known as Rayleigh waves. These vibrations move through the ground like waves moving on the surface of the ocean but faster. They travel at ten times the speed of sound. The Rayleigh waves would have reached Sri Lanka hours before the water hit. Mammals, birds, insects and spiders can sense Rayleigh waves. So the animals at Yala might have felt the Rayleigh waves and then run to higher ground.
But what about humans? While we can’t hear infrasound, we can feel it, although we don’t necessarily know we’re feeling it. We also experience Rayleigh waves by special sensors in our joints（關(guān)節(jié)）, which exist just for that purpose. Sadly, it seems we don’t pay attention to the information when we get it. Maybe we screen it out because there’s so much going on before our eyes and in our ears.
小題1:Why did few animals at Yala die when the tsunamis that caused a huge number of human deaths hit?
A．Because human beings cannot hear the infrasonic sound.
B．Because the animals were staying at a higher place in the park.
C．Because the animals were able to run much faster than human beings.
D．Because the animals might have picked up the danger signals and ran away.
小題2:Which of the statements about “Rayleigh waves” is true?
A．Rayleigh waves can be felt both by animals and human beings.
B．Rayleigh waves, just like infrasonic sound, can only be felt by animals.
C．Rayleigh waves are vibrational waves that usually cause quakes or tsunamis.
D．Rayleigh waves move on the ocean surface at a speed ten times that of sound waves.
小題3:According to the passage, which of the statement is true?
A．We can’t feel the infrasound so we can’t be informed of the danger.
B．We ignore the information of tsunami’s coming even though we can also get it.
C．We were so busy on our minds that we feel neither infrasound nor Rayleigh waves.
D．We can feel Rayleigh waves and infrasound so we can escape the danger like animals.

Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, politics, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式). It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists before us didn’t get everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.
小題1: To work out a math problem, you need to know __________.
A．only a certain formula
B．how to memorize some facts
C．only some facts
D．the method to work it out
小題2: Why were many scientists so successful?
A．They received good education.
B．They were very clever.
C．They knew how to learn.
D．They learned lots of facts and formulas.

Next Stop: Planet Mars
Fly me to the moon? That’s not far enough. On September 14, 2011, NASA released designs for a superrocket, the Space Launch System (SLS). This time the final destination will be Mars.
The SLS is a huge, liquid-fuelled rocket. If it is fully developed, it will be the most powerful rocket ever built. Its lift capability will be much bigger than that of the space shuttle of Saturn 5, the rocket that sent the Apollo missions to the moon.
NASA is planning to launch its first unmanned test flight in 2017. It is hoped that the first crew will fly in 2021 and astronauts will make it to a nearby asteroid(小行星) in 2025. NASA hopes to send the rocket and astronauts to Mars from the asteroid by the 2030s, according to the Associated Press (AP).
NASA used liquid rockets to send Apollo, Gemini and Mercury into space, but later changed to solid rockets boosters(助推火箭) because they were cheaper. Tragically, however, a booster flaw(缺陷) caused the space shuttle Challenger to crash in 1986. The new project plans to return to liquid fuel.
According to AP, the rockets will at first be able to carry 77 to 110 tons of payload(凈載重量). Eventually they will be able to carry 143 tons into space, maybe even as many as 165 tons, NASA officials said. By comparison, the Saturn 5 booster could lift 130 tons and the space shuttle just 27 tons.
However, unlike reusable shuttles, these powerful rockets are mostly one use only. New ones have to be built for every launch. This will be very costly.
NASA estimates that it will cost about $3 billion (19 billion yuan) per year, or $18 billion until the first test flight in 2017. NASA hopes to make money by allowing private companies to send astronauts to the International Space Station like giant taxi services, so that the program can be “sustainable”.
“This is perhaps the biggest thing for space exploration in decades,” said Senator Bill Nelson, a former astronaut. “The goal is to fly humans safely beyond low-Earth orbit(軌道) and deep into outer space where we cannot only survive, but one day also live.”
小題1:What is the outstanding feature of the SLS?
A．It’s equipped with an advanced control system.
B．It’s the first unmanned space shuttle in the world.
C．It’s the only vehicle that can fly astronauts to the moon.
D．It can send a lot more goods and passengers into space.
小題2:What is Saturn 5?
A．An aircraft that had a deadly flaw and crashed in 1986.
B．A series of rockets that once sent astronauts to the moon.
C．An unmanned space shuttle that was once famous in the world.
D．A kind of launch vehicle that will be used to carry astronauts to Mars.
小題3:NASA plans to use liquid fuel in the new project because ______ than solid rockets boosters.
A．it is less costly
B．it is much safer
C．it can last longer
D．it is more environmentally friendly
小題4:According to NASA’s schedule, it will take ______ years to fully complete the SLS program.
A．a(chǎn)bout 6B．a(chǎn)bout 10
C．less than 14 D．more than 19
小題5:It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A．the SLS program is planning to make reusable rockets
B．the goal of the SLS program is to enable humans to live on the moon
C．the US government may not have provided enough money for the SLS program
D．NASA will use SLS as a space taxi between the Earth and Mars

When we read books we seem to enter a new world. This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very __50__. Some stories are told as if they were true. Real people who live in a __51__ world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not __52__. They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be impossible for us.
But there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only __53__. How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when we read about Harry Potter, we do seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than __54__. Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way of thinking. When we read or write something, we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our __55__, which is real, and our imagination, which is real in a different way, to make the words come to life in our minds.
Both realism and fantasy (幻想) use the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think. When we read something realistic, we have to __56__ that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we __57__ that we are real and they are not. It sounds __58__, but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and __59__ the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by __60__ that what we read is like real life. __61__, we are writing the book, too.
Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our __62__ when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose ourselves in a good story, eager to find out what will __63__ next. Knowing how we feel when we read can help us become better __64__, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.
