not a valuable book； and so a poor man，who could read a little，bought it for very little moneyThe book wasnt very interesting，but between its pages there was something very interesting indeedIt was a thin strip of animal skin on which was written the secret of theTouchstone （试金石）!The touchstone was a small pebble that could turn any common metal into pure goldThe writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like itBut the secret was this：The real stone would feel warm，while ordinary pebbles were coldSo the man sold his few belongings，bought some simple supplies，camped on the seashore，and began testing pebblesHe knew that if he picked up ordinary pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold，he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of timesSo，when he felt one that was cold，he threw it into the seaHe spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstoneYet he went on and on this wayPick up a pebbleColdthrow it into the seaPick up anotherThrow it into the seaThe days continued over a long period of timeOne day，however，about midafternoon，he picked up a pebble and it was warmHe threw it into the sea before he realized what he had doneHe had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the sea that when the one he wanted came along，he still threw it awaySo it is with opportunity （机会）Unless we are cautious （小心的，谨慎的），its easy to fail to recognize an opportunity when it is in hand and its just as easy to throw it away34The poor man bought the book becauseAit was very cheapBit

States，who met him and helped him run away from punishmentThe event happened in the early morning hours in one of the first days when Calvin Coolidge （卡尔文柯立芝） came into power （执政），late in August，1923He and his family were living in the same thirdfloor suite at the Willard Hotel in Washington that they had lived several years beforeThe former Presidents wife was still living in the White HouseCoolidge awoke to see a stranger go through his clothes，remove a wallet and a watch chainCoolidge spoke，I wish you wouldnt take thatThe thief，gaining his voice，said，Why？I dont mean the watch and chain，only the charm （表坠）Take it near the window and read what is impressed on its back，the President saidThe thief read，Presented to Calvin CoolidgeAre you President Coolidge？he askedThe President answered，Yes，and the House of Representatives （众议院） gave me that watch charmIm fond of itIt would do you no goodYou want moneyLets talk this overHolding up the wallet，the young man said in a

student was put into prisonBThe young student repaid the32CThe President told many reporters the young students nameDThe President ordered the young man to repay the money42Scientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for the difference between boys and girlsHowever，none were believable enough to explain the general pictureAs one scientist points out，There are slight genetic （遗传的） differences between the sexes （性别） at birthThey may affect the subjects boys and girls chooseBut the difficulty is that by the time children reach school age，there are so many other effects that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse at science and maths，or whether theyve been brought up to think of these subjects as boysterritoryStatistics （统计数据） show that in mathematics，at least，girls are equal to boysA recent report suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics because of social attitudes （态度）One of the reportsauthors says，While it is socially unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write，it is still acceptable for women to say that they arehopelessat mathsOur research shows that，although girls get marks which are as good as the boys，they have not been encouraged to do soThe explanation for the difference，which is very clear during the teenage years，goes as far back as early childhood experiencesFrom their first days in nursery school （幼儿园），girls are not encouraged to work on their own or to complete tasks，although boys areFor example，boys but not girls，are often asked tohelpwith repair workThis encouragement leads to a way of learning how to solve problems later on in lifeEvidence shows that excellent mathematicians and scientists did not have teachers who provided answers； they had to find out for themselvesA further report on maths teaching shows that teachers seem to give more attention to boys than to girlsMost teachers who took part in the study admitted that they expect their male students to do better at mathematics and science subjects than their female studentsAll of this tends to encourage boys to work harder in these subjects，gives them confidence and makes them believe that they can succeedInterestingly，both boys and girls tend to regard suchmalesubjects like mathematics and science as difficultYet it has been suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses，not because they are difficult，but for social reasonsMathematics and science are mainly male subjects，and therefore，as girls become teenagers，they are less likely to take them upGirls do not seem to want to be in open competition with boysNeither do they want to do better than boys because they are afraid to appear less female and so，less attractive42The underlined wordterritoryin the second paragraph most probably meansAgreat interestBbig landCspecial fieldDcrazy district43According to scientific studies，Amaths is not fit for girls to learnBboys have a special sense of mathsCgirls are poorer at maths even though they are given enough encouragementDgirls can learn maths as well as boys if given enough encouragemen44Those who made great contribution in mathematics and scienceAusually had good teachers to help them Bhad the abilities to solve problems by themselvesCusually worked harder than othersDwere encouraged to repair things when young45Which of the following is true according to the text？AIt is a social problem rather than a problem of brains that boys are poor at mathsBIt seems socially acceptable for a girl not to be able to read and writeCMathematics and science are easy subjects to either girls or boysDGirls do not want to compete （竞争） openly with boys四、词汇（本题共7小题；每小题1分，满分15分）A. 请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺46The tenth month of a year isIts the best time to harvest47If you
