of success at school. research shows that mothers and fathers with career burnout pass on their feelings at home. their children are more likely to lose interest in schoolwork. they can begin to worry they are not keeping up with their classmates, start to question the value of education and exams and may even experience the exhaustion that accompanies burnout.the researchers, from the academy of finlands educational arm, quizzed more than 500 teenagers about whether they had ever experienced burnout. symptoms include tiredness, a sense of failing as a student and questioning the value of schooling. their parents were asked similar questions about work-related burnout and a pattern quickly appeared.the parents worn out physically and emotionally were more likely to have children who met the same fate over their schoolwork, the european journal of developmental psychology reports. researcher professor katariina salmela-aro said, “the parent of the same gender (性别) seems to serve as a role model for the development of burnout.”family finances (财力) are also an important factor. the professor said, “the greater the familys financial worries, the higher the level of experienced burnout. this is an important result because of the potential impact of the ongoing recession (经济衰退)on the well-being of families and young people.”british experts said that rather than youngsters absorbing their parents worries, they may simply suffer from lack of attention. cary cooper, professor of health psychology at lancaster university, said, “the uk has the longest working hours in europe. professionals could be working between 45 and 55 hours a week. they are coming home, tired and exhausted and dont spend time reading to their children, talking to them and listening to them. and that could be affecting the childrens health and their performance.41. whats the best title for this passage?a. never pass on stress to children.b. keep happy when you experience stress.c. children catch stress from their parents.d. its never too late to care about children.42. if parents feel stressed at work, their children may_.a. do everything against parents willb. lose interest in finding a job.c. feel tired of staying at home.d. not think education and exams are of much use.43. it can be inferred from professor katariina salmela-aro that _ a. the sons whose fathers experience burnout tend to suffer from burnout toob. most daughters who suffer from burnout tend to be influenced by their fathers.c. not all children are influenced by their parents performance.d. the more a parent earns, the more respectable he or she will be.44. all of the following factors that affect childrens performance at school are mentioned except .a. familys finances.b. parents attention to their childrenc. parents intelligenced. parents work pressure.45. according to cary cooper, many parents in the uk a. have the longest working hours in the world.b. are too busy to spend time with their children.c. have no time for reading after work.d. have the biggest influence on their children.bif you see someone drowning, speed is very important. once you get him out of the water, if he isnt breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is completely destroyed. support his neck, move his head back and press his chin (下巴)upwards. this stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometimes enough to get him breathing again. if that doesnt work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. press his nostrils (the two holes at the end of your nose, through which you breathe and smell things) together with your fingers. open your mouth and take a deep breath. blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. repeat twelve times a minute. keep doing until professional help arrives.to bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and gently blow into his mouth. give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. if, in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue-grey colour, and you can feel no pulse, then pressing is the last chance of saving his life. with arms straight, rock forwards, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. dont be too hard or you may break a rib. check how effective you are by seeing if his colour improves or his pulse becomes independent to your chest pressing. if this happens, stop the pressing . otherwise continue until rescue arrives.46 .if you want to save someone drowning, you _.a. have to pull off his clothes first .b. should try to get him out of water as quickly as possible.c. should first make out who he is.d. ought to throw a life coat to him first .47. once a person stops breathing, it means _.a. you have no more than 4

no pulse,_.a. press his chin upwards is enough to get him breathing .b. blow air into his mouth is sure to save his life .c. press his nostrils together with your fingers can work .d. press is the last chance of saving his life .50. which of the following statement is true?a. dont stop pressing his chest, if the drowning man starts breathing again.b. if you see someone drowning, you must give him mouth-to-mouth breathing.c. if a man does not breathe for four minutes, his brain will be completely destroyed.d. when pressing, you can do it as hard as you can.clouis pasteur louis pasteur, one of the worlds great scientists, was born in 1822, and died in 1895.while still a young boy, louis pasteur made his decision to become a scientist. he spent much of his life time studying the diseases of cattle, chickens and other tame animals. his wife learned to help him with his work. almost everyone knows that pasteur is the man responsible for finding a way of preventing milk from spoiling (变质). not many people know he was the first to imagine and to prove that air we breathe is full of germs (细菌). one of his greatest successes was finding a treatment for people and animals to prevent a disease called rabies (狂犬病). louis pasteur won many honors and could have got large amount of money. but pasteur preferred to live simply. the real happiness of this unusual man came from his work. louis pasteur did so well in his life that the french government took up his work and created the institute pasteur in the year 1888.51. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true? a. pasteur was a scientist and doctor as well.b. pasteur lived for less than seventy years.c. everybody knows that pasteur succeeded in finding a way of preventing milk from spoiling.d. pasteurs wife was of some help to him in his work.52. from the passage, we know that pasteur lived a simple life. this is because _.a. he earned little money.b. he cared much about money.c. what he really enjoyed was a simple life.d. of all mentioned above.53. why were many honors given to louis pasteur?a. because he was the greatest scientist in the world.b. because he spent much of his life time studying the diseases of people.c. because he lived simply.d. because he was a rare success as a scientist.54. pasteur could have got large amount of money if he had_.a. cared much about it.b. made more discoveries.c. lived a better life.d. achieved more successes.55.to louis pasteur the real happiness in his life was to _.a. study b. work c. get large amount of moneyd. raise tame animalsdchildren start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. helping them enjoy science can be easy; theres no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. you only have to share your childrens curiosity(好奇). firstly, listen to their questions. i once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. the children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary(薪水) and whether i liked my job. when i finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. finally i said, “now that were finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?” after a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat? when i try eating leaves like that, i get a stomachache. why?” this began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours. secondly, give them time to think. studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. when adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical(符合逻辑的), complete and creative answers.thirdly, watch your language. once you have a child involved in a science discussion, dont jump in with “thats right” or “very good”. these words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. but in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. instead, keep things going by saying “thats interesting” or “id never thought of it that way before”, or coming up with more questions or ideas.never push a child to “think”. it doesnt make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling them to. whats more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. the child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target(目标) for your disagreement.lastly, show; dont tell. real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and theyll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.56. according to the passage, children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is _.a. to let them see the world aroundb. to share the childrens curiosityc. to explain difficult phrases about scienced. to supply the children with lab equipment57. in the last sentence of the first paragraph, the word “lists” could best be replaced by _.a. any questions b. any problemsc. questions from textbooks d. any number of questions58. according to the passage, children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults _.a. ask them to answer quicklyb. wait for one or two seconds after a questionc. tell them to answer the next dayd. wait at least for three seconds after a question59. in which of the following paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say to encourage children in a science discussion?a. the second and third. b. the fourth and fifth.c. the fifth and sixth. d. the seventh.60. the author mentions all of the following techniques for adults to share with their childrens curiosity except that adults should _.a. tell their children stories instead of reciting(背诵) factsb. offer their children chances to see things for themselvesc. be patient enough when their children answer questionsd. encourage their children to ask questions of their own第二节 信息匹配 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请把答案填写在答题卡上将对应题号上。(选e项，在答题卡上将a,b涂黑; 选f项，在答题卡上将c,d涂黑)
