In fact it is the jumble of toys that is to blame for four-year-old Steves lack of interest in his dolls, cars and packed animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mothers desk or following her into the kitchen saying: “Mummy, I am bored.”A family therapist(心理医生)explains why children lose interest when they have a whole “toy shop” at home: “According to their brain development, little children are in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest are left lying about. “What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the childs knowledge. If he/she takes no notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will always say he/she wants it then! A talk with relatives and friends may also help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and we like her way. A small set of shelves in her childs room holds the toys and the books that are the current(at present) favorite. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired of these toys, they put them away in a box together and selects some other toys from a cupboard in another room. The box of “old” toys goes into the cupboard. When her children says she is “bored”, they also get something from her cupboardit may be something she has had for some time but because she hasnt seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the corner, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something “fresh” to play with.56. Steve interrupted his mother several times because _. A. he felt uninterested in his toys B. he disliked his mothers guest C. he didnt have enough toys to play with D. he hoped his mother would play with him57. According to the therapist, children often complain that they have nothing to play with because _. A. they cant play alone for a long time B. they are too young to play with so many toys C. they are too lazy to pick out their favorites D. they lack the ability to value too many things at a time58. Which of the following can be used in place of “jumble” in the first paragraph? A. simple choice B. mixture in disorder C. ordinary appearance D. same shape59. Which is the advice given to parents in the text? A. Buy fewer toys for their children. B. Form good habits for their children. C. Spare some time to play with their children D. Put away some toys without telling their children. BIn a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They declare that if more people rode bicycles to work, there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bicycle riders. For example. They want the city to draw special lanes for bicycles only on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea-they say it will slow the traffic. Some store owners on the main streets dont like the idea-they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park-the largest place of open ground in New York-is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.60. In New York, a group of bike riders _. A. are keeping practicing for health B. have no cars of their own C. are complaining there are not enough buses D. are trying to settle the problem of air pollution61. The advantage of the special lanes is that _. A. they will make cars and buses run slowly B. they will make it easier for bike riders to go to parks C. they will make the city more beautiful D. the lanes will prevent accidents62. The government has not decided whether special lanes should be drawn _. A. so that everyone is disappointed B. because there are different opinions C. because most people travel by train D. because Bike for a Better City is not strong enough63. Cars are not permitted to enter Central Park on weekends _. A. so that Bike for a Better City is pleased B. so that everyone is happy C. and bicycle lanes are drawn D. but Bike for a Better City is still not satisfied CEvery country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize（批评、责备） others, as they are similar to or different from it. And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted(扭曲) one.Here is a great argument in favor of foreign travel and learning foreign languages. It is only by traveling in a country and getting to know its inhabitants（居民） and their language that one can find out what a country and its people are really like. And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be from the second-hand information gathered from other sources! How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different people from ourselves are not very different at all!Differences between peoples do, of course, exist and, one hopes, will always continue to do so. The world will be a dull place indeed when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike, and some people might say that we are rapidly approaching（走近） this state of affairs. With the much greater rapidity and ease of travel, there might seem to be some truth in this at least as far as Europe is concerned. However this may be, at least the greater ease of travel today has revealed (显示)to more people than ever before that the Englishman or Frenchman or German is not some different kind of animal from themselves.64.Every country criticizes ways of life in other countries because they are _.A. distortedB. normalC similar to each otherD. different from its own 65.One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will_.A. find out what its people are likeB. argue in favor of this country and the language C. know the country and its people betterD. like its inhabitants and their language66.The knowledge one gains by traveling in a foreign country is often_.A. from second-hand informationB. gathered from other sources than (from) its inhabitantsC. gained from the arguments about the country D. different from what one had before the travel67.In this passage, the author wants to say _.A. differences between people will gradually disappear because of easy of travelB. differences between people do exist even though different nationalities behave exactly alikeC. differences between people will always continue to exist and the world will be a dull placeD. differences between people will not exist as one hopes DWhen Nancy Lulbin received $5,000 from her grandfather in 1996, she never once considered taking a vacation or paying off student loans. Instead, the 24-year-old New York University law student began thinking about helping low-income women get better jobs. “If a woman goes for a job interview poorly dressed, she wont get the job,” Lublin says. “But without a job, she cant afford suitable clothes.”So, with the money Lublin founded “Dress for Success” and began collecting womens clothes which were still in good condition but which their owners no longer needed. “So many women have clothes lying around that they will never wear again,” one of Lublins assistants says. “Nancys idea is so simple and yet so important to women.”Many women come to Lublins office before going to a job interview. Here, they receive a suit, shoes and any other things they need. Since it was set up, more than 1,000 women have turned to “Dress for Success” for help. Many of them have won jobs. Some have found jobs after being out of work for many years. Jenny, a 32-year-old woman who was recently hired as a law-firm office manager says, “I made a good impression because of “Dress for Success”.68. What can we learn from the text? A. Nancys grandfather lent her the money to set up the office. B. Nancys office gathers used clothes from women. C. Low-income women can get jobs at “Dress for Success” D. Nancy set up “Dress for Success” to make money.69. “Dress for Success” attracts many women because they _. A. like to wear different clothes B. like the design of the dresses C. prefer buying clothes at a low price D. need to look smart when looking for a job70. From what Jenny says, we know that _. A. she got a lot of good ideas from Nancy B. she is working happily at her present job C. clothes from Nancys office helped to get her a job D. “Dress for Success” has a good business relation with her firm 71. What would be a good title for the text? A. Keep Your Old Clothes B. A Helping Hand for Women C. Nancy: A Successful Law Student D. A Successful Clothing Business EA person, like a commodity(商品), needs packaging（包装）. But going too far is absolutely undesirable（不合需要的）. A little exaggeration（夸大）, however, does no harm when it shows the persons unique qualities to their advantages. To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment(装饰), so that the person so packaged is not a commodity but a human being, lively and lovely.A young person, especially a female, shining with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt to make up would be self-defeating. Youth, however, comes and goes in a flash. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. You have really lived your life , which now arrives at a self-satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth. There is no need to make use of hair dyeing. The snowcapped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony(和谐) with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. To be in the company of the elderly is like reading a thick book of deluxe(better quality) edition, which attracts one so much that one is unwilling to part with it.As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging.72. It can be concluded from the text that _. A. people should be packaged at all ages B. people should be packaged in a special way C. elderly people also care about packaging D. proper packaging makes people attractive73. According to the author, if you want to keep in harmony with nature, you should _. A. dye your hair B. make up at a young age C. follow the aging process D. give up fame and wealth74. For the middle-aged, attractiveness _. A. hardly exists B. is the strongest C. comes from the inside D. comes from the appearance75. The underlined sentence means that elderly people _. A. are usually packaged like a finely-made book B. experience a lot and have rich knowledge C. do a lot of traveling and can give you much informati
