He was being interviewed by a newspaper reporter who asked him why he thought he was able to be so much more creative than the average person. What set him so far apart from others? He responded that, in his opinion, it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old. He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip on the slippery bottle and it fell, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor a real sea of milk! When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of yelling at him, giving him a lecture or punishing him, she said, “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?” Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge, a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?” He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled milk. His mother then said, “You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Lets go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it.” The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful lesson! This famous renowned scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didnt need to be afraid to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just opportunities for learning something new, which is, after all, what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment “doesnt work”, we usually learn something valuable from it. 56. The passage is intended to_. A. introduce the life story of a famous scientist B. compare the different ways of family education C. reveal the secret of the scientists success D. inspire the parents to improve theirteaching methods 57. From the passage, we can know that Robert_. A. was very naughty when he was two B. was so workinghard as to succeed C. owes a lot to his education from his mother D. has made some great contributions to physics research 58. On seeing the spoiled milk, what did the mother do firstly? A. She comforted his son. B. She cleaned the floor. C. She taught how to grasp the bottle. D. She gave the boy a lecture. 59. Which of the following is the best according to the text? A. It would be great if all the scientists can know the importance of the failed experiment. B. It would be great if the experiment doesnt work at all. C. It would be great if all parents would respond the way Roberts mother responded to him. D. It would be great if we are more creative than the average person. B More than 2 million US teenagers have suffered a serious bout (发作) of depression in the past year, according to a federal government survey released on Tuesday. On average, 8.5 percent of adolescents aged 12 to 17 described having had a major depressive episode in the previous year, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reported. But there were“striking differences” by sex, with 12.7 percent of girls and 4.6 percent of boys affected. Depression is the leading cause of suicide, which in turn is the thirdleading cause of death for 15to 24yearolds in the United States. “Combined 2004 to 2006 data show that rates of past year major depressive experience among youths aged 12 to 17 generally increased with increasing age,” the researchers wrote. Researchers at SAMHSA and RTI International in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, prepared the report using data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. More than 67,700 youths aged 12 to 17 answered questions about mood and depression. They were also asked to rate how depression affected them using the Sheehan Disability Scale, which measures impact on family, friends, chores at home, work and school. Researchers defined a major depressive episode as two weeks or longer of depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure, and at least four other symptoms (症状) such as problems with sleep, energy, concentration or selfimage. Nearly half of the teenagers who had major depression said it severely damaged their ability to function in at least one of the areas on the disability scale. “Fortunately, depression responds very well to early intervention and treatment,” SAMHSA Administrator Terry Cline said in a statement. 60. The underlined word “episode” in paragraph 2 has the similar meaning as the given word _. A. feeling B. expression C. experience D. experiment 61. The main reasons which lead to serious depressive symptoms include _ . A. low spirits, unhappiness, lack of sleep and poor concentration B. poor health, sex discrimination, less energy and loss of interest C. suicide, sadness, lack of confidence and depression D. no family or friends or jobs or interests at all 62. What can be implied, but is not stated directly? A. There were more girl students suffering depression than boys. B. There were over 2 million American teens suffering depression in the past two years. C. The students surveyed were aged between 12 and 17. D. Depression is the thirdleading cause of suicide. 63. What will the following paragraph probably talk about according to the passage? A. How to have a happy feeling. B. How to live a comfortable life. C. How to recover from stress. D. How to prevent and treat depression. C The BRICK Awards are given each year to young people who make our world a better place. These youth service awards were presented recently to twelve young people for their community action projects. For the first time, the BRICK Awards were presented on an American TV show. Twelve people under the age of 25 from the United States and Canada won awards of 10,000 dollars to continue their work.

D By 2010, spending on Internet advertising will account for 10% of total US ad dollars, according to “The Changing Face of Advertising in the Digital Age” from Parks Associates. Roughly 21% of Internet users consider Internet advertising to be the most effective ad format. It has gone beyond traditional media, such as newspapers, magazines and radio. Behavioral targeting with a variety of sounds makes the channel attractive. “Because the Internet is an interactive platform and offers rich consumer usage data, advertisers can improve their ad target ability and achieve better results,” said Parks Associates research analyst Harry Wang. Due to audience and media fragmentation(分裂), large companies and established brands will move dollars from TV and other formats to the web. Anheuser-Busch, Procter & Gamble, Verizon, and Wachovia have already moved portions of their budgets to online advertising. “The Internet has changed the standard for the entire world, and traditional media have to respond by making their media platforms more interactive and results-oriented,” said Wang. The report was compiled (编写) from the findings of an Internet-based survey of 2084 US consumers in households with Internet access. The group includes 270 teenagers aged 13 to 17. The report contains data from Parks Associates consumer study “Digital Entertainment: Changing Consumer Habits”. 68.
