Then put your choice on the Answer Sheet.Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: (中)David, my next-door neighbor, has two young kids aged five and seven. One day he was teaching his seven-year-old son Kelly how to push the lawn mower around the yard. As he was teaching him to turn the mower around at the end of the lawn, his wife, Jane, called to him to ask a question. As David turned to answer the question, Kelly pushed the lawn mower right through the flower bed at the edge of the lawn, leaving a two-foot wide path leveled to the ground.When David turned back around and saw what had happed, he began to lose control. David had spent a lot of time and effort making those flower beds, the envy of the neighborhood. As he began to raise his voice to his son, Jane walked quickly over to him, put her hands on his husbands shoulder and said, “David, please rememberwere raising children, not flowers!”Jane reminded me how important it is as a parent to remember our priorities. Kids and their self-esteem are more important than any physical objects they might break or destroy. The window pane broken by a football, a desk lamp knocked over by a careless child, or a plate dropped in the kitchen is already broken. The flowers are already dead. We must remember not to add the destruction by breaking a childs spirit and deadening his sense of liveliness.B/26. What did David teach Kelly to do one day? A. How to water flowers. B.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage: （中）In every school there is a “top” crowd that sets the pace, while the others follow their example. Lets say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters. Pretty soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters. There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that for some people bright red is rather unsuitable. The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or to drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then the people who follow the example are endangering their very lives. They are like sheep being led to the slaughter.Now, it is likely that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, dont do it yourself. Learn to say “No!” Develop your own standards and your own judgments. If you know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove, have the courage to bow out gracefully. You will have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet.D 31.

But one thing still puzzles old Harold. “How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to ballgame, come back three and a half hours later, and theyre still sitting on the sofa talking?What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about?Betty shrugs. She says they are friends.“Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. No matter what their age, their job, their sex, the results were completely clear: women have more friendships than men. “More than two-thirds of single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman. Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend, and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend, most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress. “Most women,” says Rubin, “identified at least one, usually more, trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment, and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives.”“In general,” writers Rubin in her new book, “womens friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but mens relationships are marked by shared activities.” For the most part, Rubin says, interactions between men are emotionally controlleda good fit with the social requirements of “manly behavior.”“Even when a man is said to be a best friend,” Rubin writes, “the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a womans closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasnt unusual to hear a man say he didnt know his friends marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa.”B41.
