If one fails the other is there to catch him.They are Wellman, whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing accident, and Corbett, an experienced rock climber. Together, they climbed up Half Dome, the famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National Park, through one of the most different routes. During the climb, Crorbett took the lead, hit in the metal spikes(尖状物) that guided the ropes and climbed up. Then, after Wellmanm pulled himself up the rope, Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again. This process was repeated time and again, inch by inch, for 13 days.Wellmans job was not easy either. He got himself up the rope through upper body strength alone. In all, Wellman figured that he had done 5,000 pull-ups up the rope on the climb. However, when the two men first met, they never talked about climbing. “He knew that was how I got injured.” Wellman said. Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again and they started training.Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth. At one point, pieces of rock gave way, and Corbett dropped down quickly. Wellman locked their rope in place, stopping the fall at 20 feet. His quick action probably saved his friends life.“Your partner can save your life - you can save your partners life,” Wellman said as the pair received congratulations from friends. “There are real close ties.” 1. Which of the following was a challenge for Corbett in climbing Half Dome?A. To climb up to remove the spikes. B. To do 5,000 pull-ups up the rope. C. To climb it twice. D. To lock the rope in place.2. Why did the two men never talk about climbing when they first met?A. Corbett was poorly trained. B. Wellman had lost interest in climbing.C. Wellman hadnt decided whether to climb againD. Corbett didnt want to hurt Wellman. 3. What do we know about Wellman?A. he stopped rock-climbing for some time. B. he was disabled in a traffic accident.C. he climbed Half Dome by himself. D. he was saved by Corbett during the climb.4. The main idea of the text is that _.A. two heads are better than one B. friendship is very precious in lifeC. the disabled should never give up D. a man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated BBeing Authoritative (权威的) ParentsPhrases like “tiger mom” and helicopter parent” have made their way into everyday language. Many of us find ourselves drawn to the idea that with just a bit more parental hard work and effort, we might turn out children with bright futures. But is there anything wrong with a kind of “overparenting style”?Parental involvement has a long history of being studied. Many of the studies, conducted by Diana Baumrind, a famous psychologist at the University of California, Berkeley, have found that a good parent is the one who is involved and reacts to her child in a positive way, who sets high expectations but gives her child independence. These “authoritative parents” appear to hit the sweet spot of parental involvement and generally raise children who do better academically, psychologically and socially than children whose parents are not strict and less involved, or controlling and more involved. Why is this parenting style so successful?Authoritative parents actually help improve motivation in their children. Carol Dweck, a social psychologist at Stanford University, has done research that indicates why authoritative parents raise more motivated children. In a typical experiment, Dr. Dweck takes young children into a room and asks them to solve a simple puzzle. Most do so with little difficulty. But then Dr. Dweck tells some, but not all, of the kids how clever they are. As it turns out, the children who are not told theyre smart are more motivated to solve increasingly difficult puzzles. They also show higher levels of confidence and show greater progress in puzzle-solving.As the experiment suggests, praising childrens talents and abilities seems to shake their confidence. Dealing with more difficult puzzles carries the risk of losing ones status as “smart”. Dr. Dwecks work strongly supports that of Dr. Baumrind, who also found that reasonably supporting a childs independence and limiting interference (干涉) causes better academic and emotional results.The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is independent and confident. If you treat your young child who is just learning to walk as if she cant walk, you reduce her confidence. Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting. It is easier when they are young. The potential mistakes carry greater risks, and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children. 5. According to the passage, a “tiger mom” _.A. helps her children realize their dreamsB. speaks her childrens everyday languageC. places reasonable expectations on her childrenD. pays close attention to her childrens experiences6. It is implied that controlling style of parenting may _.A. face more challenges of children B. cause more problems in children C. develop independence in children D. lead to childrens academic success7. The example of the children doing the puzzles suggests that _.A. a good game plays a big role in training young mindsB. puzzle-solving can give children the motivation they needC. overpraising makes children less motivated and confidentD. bright children usually show less confidence in difficult games8. The last paragraph tells us that _. A. children should not be given much freedomB. parents should not increase the risk of challenging C. children should correct mistakes with the help of their parentsD. parents should allow their children to learn from the mistakes C. On a dark night, 11-year-old Joe was playing hide-and-seek with his friends in the backyard when he thought he saw Magellana huge housecat. However, when the cat suddenly jumped on his head, Joe found it turned out a young cougar（美洲狮）. He backed away from the animal, then turned and ran inside the house. Cougar encounters (遭遇) like this one are becoming very common in the U.S. Most people assume thats because cougar populations are growing, or because the big cats are coming into closer contact with the expanding web of human suburbs. But Professor Robert Wielgus at Washington State University argues that poorly designed hunting policies might be causing an increase in cougar-human conflicts.Wielguss research teams have been fitting the big cats with radio collars and monitoring their movements. They find that the cougar population is actually decreasing rapidly and almost no male cougars are over four years of age. And a study shows that the heavily hunted area has five times as many cougar complaints as the lightly hunted areaeven though the density（密度）of cougars is about the same in both areas. Wielgus suspects that hunting policies, which allow older males to be killed to keep cougar populations in check, were the culprit and teenage cougars in the heavily hunted area may be responsible for most of the trouble. To test his theory, he adds two more groups of cougars to the tracking programone in a heavily hunted area and another in a comparable but lightly hunted area. He concludes that heavy hunting indeed almost wipes out older males and the population structure in the heavily hunted area shifts toward younger animals. With these findings, Wielgus believes without adults to keep them under control, the disorderly teens are more likely to come into conflict with humans, farm animals and pets. Wielguss ideas dont sit well with everyone. “Hunting definitely does cause lots of teenage males to flow in, but I dont yet see solid proof that they are more likely to cause trouble than older cats,”says the University of Montanas Robinson. “In many cases, the new arrivals have been squeezed (挤出) out of remote wilderness habitat and forced into areas where they are more likely to encounter humans. I think humans are primarily responsible for all the interaction you see. Were moving into these areas where cougars and deer are,” according to Alldredge, a researcher at the Colorado Division of Wildlife.We may not understand what makes 18-year-old males more likely than 48-year-old men to do dangerous things, Wielgus says, but we know that the world would be a different place, if teenagers were in charge.9. The passage begins with a story to _. A. lead into the topic B. describe an incident C. show the authors attitude D. warn of the dangers of cougars10. The underline word “culprit” in Para.4 is closest in meaning to _. A. effect B. evidence C. cause D. aim11. Which of the following is true? A. Alldredge agrees hunting results in the arrival of lots of teens. B. Robinson doubts age is a key factor in human-cougar conflicts. C. Alldredge believes killing older males may cause a bigger threat.D. Robinson holds humans are to blame for the fall of older males.12. What might Wielgus suggest to reduce cougar attacks? A. Driving teenage cougars back into their natural habitat. B. Getting people to move out of the areas where cougars are.C. Preventing children from playing in the backyard by themselves.D. Improving hunting policies to ensure a healthy cougar population. 第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 1 分，满分 5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Making Peace with Your ParentsAs a teen, you are going through big changes physically and mentally. Your interests are expanding. 13 Here is the challenge: Kids need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are all out in that world. 14 Sometimes conflicts cant be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents. For instance, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, distracted , or hungry. A good time to talk is when you are all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, youd better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation-for now. You can pick it up again when everyones more relaxed. Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that youre listening. 15 Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others feelings can disagree without getting things ugly. 16 How do you build trust? Trust comes by actually doing what you say youre going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-makers-theyre interesting people who like to watch movies and go shopping-just like their teenagers! What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky（不稳定的）? 17 You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can lead an ear. Remember you can only change your own behavior. Your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.A.It also gives them a chance to clear things up if youre not on the same page.B.These conflicts can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm house.C.And then you will be able to accept what your parents say.D.Faced with the challenge, children dont know what to do.E. You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.F.And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.G.You may consider seeking outside help. 第三部分 完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 As a young boy, my life in Haiti always revolved around my parents.
