i rolled over and faced her, ready to let her see my rage (愤怒).but my mother wasnt laughing at all. she was crying. “im so sorry,” she said. “i let you down. i let my little boy down.”i was moved by her tears. i tried to remember her kind words from times past when id skinned knees or cut myself, times when she knew just the right thing to say. “its okay, mom. we didnt even need those cookies. there was plenty of stuff to eat. dont cry. its all right. really.”we didnt say another word. we just held each other. when we came to the point where i would usually pull away, i decided that, this time, i could hold on, perhaps, just a little bit longer.41. the author was pretty down because _.a. he couldnt go to the party he had been looking forward tob. his mother didnt turn up at the party as she had promisedc. his mother had refused to make chocolate chips for the partyd. the cookies his mom made was not popular at the party42. when the author returned home, _.a. he was so angry that he slammed the front doorb. he was silent and refused to return his mothers hug c. he rushed from room to room looking for his motherd. he was disappointed that he couldnt express his anger to his mother43. we can tell from the story that _.a. the mother didnt get to the party because of the traffic jamb. the mother was sorry for her absence and laughed at herselfc. the author was a caring and thoughtful boyd. the author was overcome with anger44. the article conveys the message that _.a. it is silly to be angry with your familyb. everybody should keep his or her promisesc. true love is based on understandingd. understanding how to comfort people in low spirits is a true skillbthink about the last time you felt a negative emotionlike stress, anger, or frustration. what was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? was your mind cluttered with (充斥) different kinds of thoughts? or was it paralyzed, unable to think?the next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop. yes, thats right, stop. whatever youre doing, stop and sit for one minute. while youre sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion. allow that emotion to consume you. allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion. dont cheat yourself here. take the entire minutebut only one minuteto do nothing else but feel that emotion. when the minute is over, ask yourself, “am i willing to keep holding on to this negative emotion as i go through the rest of the day?” once youve allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really feel it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly. if you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is ok. allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion. when you feel youve had enough of the emotion, ask yourself if youre willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. if not, take a deep breath. as you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath. this exercise seems simplealmost too simple. but, it is very effective. by allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. you are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. when you immerse yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. you can clear your head and proceed with your task.45. which one does not belong to the negative emotion?a. anxiety b. confusion c. depression d. sorrow 46. what should you do when you are into negativity according to the article?a. listen to some music. b. ignore it and do something else. c. just do nothing and truly feel that emotion. d. think about it and try to deal with it immediately. 47. the underlined word “immerse” (paragraph 2) most probably means _. a. break down b. get rid of c. cut off d. throw into 48. whats the best title of this text?a. clear your mental space. b. deep breath, trouble away. c. try to avoid the negative emotion. d. keep holding on to this negative emotion as long as possible. 49. the authors opinion towards negative emotion is _.a. doubtful b. optimistic c. frightened d. confusedcall parents tell their children little white lies from time to time. “of course father christmas comes down the chimney!” “eat your spinach youll get as strong as popeye.”. . . and so on. however, theres one fib thats bigger than all the others. its “i dont have a favorite child.”in his fascinating new book, the sibling effect: what bonds among brothers and sisters reveal about us, jeffrey kluger, a father of two daughters, aged eight and ten, claims that “ 95 percent of parents in the world have a favorite child and the other 5 percent are lying.”kluger may be exaggerating the figures for dramatic effect but despite every parents vehement（激烈的）denial that they have a favorite child scientific research shows that he is not far off the truth. according to one recent study by researchers from the university of california which followed 384 sibling pairs and their parents for three years 65 percent of the mothers and 70 percent of fathers exhibited a preference for one child. as this was among families that knew they were being monitored, theres a strong possibility the true figures could be significantly higher. favoritism is certainly a controversial topic. when raised as a subject for discussion on parenting websites, it always arouses a stream of angry denials. but interestingly, a lot of personal anecdotes appear from parents who say they were overshadowed by a favored sibling, or were, indeed, their mother or fathers favorite. it seems everyone knows favoritism exists but nobody wants to put their hand up and say theyre guilty of it themselves. another research, where siblings have been asked to say who their mother and father favor, suggests that mothers do tend to a show a preference for their first-born son, but fathers often dote on their youngest daughters. parents will often be drawn to the child who is easiest to get along with or the child that shares similar traits to them. for example, mum will have a special bond with her sensitive, arty son, while dad lavishes attention on his sporty daughter. professor scott says being least favored in a family can color our behavior as adults. “children who feel they are less loved within their family are more likely to develop low self-esteem, anxiety and depression.”but some experts believe being less favored can have positive consequences. professor scott agrees that favored children can sometimes find life difficult when they have to rub along in the real world. 50. which of the following is most likely a white lie? a. i am determined to go and nothing will stop me. b. a good idea, without action, is worth nothing. c. those who complain the most, accomplish the least. d. thank you so much for the gift! i just love it!51. what can we infer from paragraph three?a. kluger is exaggerating the figures for dramatic effect. b. every parent denies the fact that he has a favorite child. c. every parent does have a favorite child. d. what kluger said is quite close to the fact. 52. what does “sibling” (para 4) mean in the passage?a. brother or sister b. parent c. brother d. sister53. which child is most likely to be a favorite child in a fathers eyes?a. a sensitive, arty son. b. the first-born son. c. a sporty daughter. d. a young daughter. 54. what is the most likely effect on the child who is the favored one in a family according to professor scott?a. he simply just has to put his head down and work harder to succeed. b. he is likely to learn how to turn disadvantages into advantages. c. he is likely to find life difficult when he has to face the real world. d. he is likely to develop low self-esteem, anxiety and depression. 55. which of the following is not true according to the passage?a. some people were overshadowed by a favored sibling when they were young. b. most people will admit that they feel guilty of favoring one child over another. c. experts have different opinions about the consequences of being less favored. d. the topic about favoritism on parenting websites always arouses angry denials. dabout this time every year, i get very nostalgic. walking through my neighborhood on a fall afternoon reminds me of a time not too long ago when sounds of children filled the air, children playing games on a hill, and throwing leaves around in the street below. i was one of those children, carefree and happy. i live on a street that is only one block long. i have lived on the same street for sixteen years. i love my street. one side has six houses on it, and the other has only two houses, with a small hill in the middle and a huge cottonwood tree on one end. when i think of home, i think of my street. only i see it as it was before. unfortunately things change. one day, not long ago, i looked around and saw how different everything has become. life on my street will never be the same because neighbors are quickly grown old, friends are growing up and leaving, and the city is planning to destroy my precious hill and sell the property to contractors.it is hard for me to accept that many of my wonderful neighbors are growing old and wont be around much longer. i have fond memories of the couple across the street, who sat together on their porch swing almost every evening, the widow next door who yelled at my brother and me for being too loud, and the crazy old man in a black suit who drove an old car. in contrast to those people, the people i see today are very old neighbors who have seen better days. the man in the black suit says he wants to die, and another neighbor just sold his house and moved into a nursing home. the lady who used to yell at us is too tired to bother any more, and the couple across the street rarely go out to their front porch these days. it is difficult to watch these precious people as they near the end of their lives because at once i thought they would live forever.the “comings and goings” of the younger
