But the results of a new study show that a mothers voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contact (接触).In an experiment， researchers from the University of Wisconsin Madison asked a group of girls between the ages of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges a stressful situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to give their answers， the researchers measured their levels of two hormones(荷尔蒙)：cortisol，which goes up during stressful periods， and oxytocin， the “love” hormone， which goes down at the same time.After the girls finished the problems， some of them got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didnt see their mothers， but received phone calls from them， in which their mothers told them how well theyd done. The final group had no contact with their mothers， but instead watched an animal movie， March of the Penguins.Finally， the girls hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting， it did nothing to reduce the childrens anxietybut， surprisingly， both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect on reducing the girls stress levels.So， no matter how old you are， if youre feeling stressed about something in your life， a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.（1） If a girl is under stress， _. A . she cant solve math problemsB . she will have high levels of hormoneC . oxytocin will remain at a high levelD . cortisol will go up with oxytocin down（2） Which of the following is the right order in which the study was carried out?a.

The girls were divided into three groups.A . b-c-d-aB . d-b-c-aC . c-b-d-aD . d-c-b-a（3） From the passage， we can infer that _. A . it is easy for girls to solve math problemsB . the girls who had watched the movie remained anxiousC . mothers should hug their kids as often as possibleD . older girls have higher cortisol than younger ones（4） Whats the main idea of the passage? A . A mothers voice can comfort her anxious kids.B . Mothers should often hug their kids.C . Mothers should spend enough time caring about their kids.D . Scientists discovered why kids become stressed when having tests.3. （8分） Im lying on my back in my grandfathers orchard (果园), looking up at the branches above me. It is one of the last days of summer. Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler. Some kinds of apples are already ripe(成熟的). Others will be ready to pick soon. I think of my grandmothers apple pie, and how I used to make it with her. She died last year, before the apple harvest, and I have not had her pie since then. I really miss her. I hear bees busily humming about, visiting the late summer flowers. The gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.The sky is as blue as my grandfathers eyes. Above me, big white clouds ran across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the wind. School starts in another week, and time seems to have slowed down.“Sophie!” calls my grandfather. “Is that you?” I stand up, take his hand, and tell him all about my day as we walk through the orchard. We talk about apples, and bees and Grandma. He tells me that he misses her too.He hputs his rough, brown farmers hand around my shoulder and pulls me close. “ You know, Sophie,” he says, “ I spent the morning in the attic (阁楼), and youll never guess what I found. Its the recipe(烹饪法) for Grandmas apple pie. I used to help her make it sometimes. I cant do it all alone, but you used to help her too. Maybe between the two of us, we can work it out. Want to try?”“ But it wont be the same without Grandma,” I tell him.“ Thats true,” he says, “but nothing is the same without Grandma. Still, I dont think that she would want us never to have another apple pie. What do you say?” I nod yes, and we walk towards hometoward an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen, making Grandmas famous apple pie.（1） We learn from the passage that Sophie .A . likes to watch clouds in the atticB . comes to the orchard after schoolC . enjoys Grandmas apple pie very muchD . picks many apples in the orchard（2） Both Sophie and her grandfather used to _.A . help Grandma make apple piesB . spend summer afternoons in the orchardC . enjoy fresh fruit in the farmhouse kitchenD . walk alone among the apple trees（3） The underlined part in the last paragraph shows .A . how much Sophies grandmother loved SophieB . how much Sophies grandfather likes apple piesC . how much Sophie loves her grandfathers orchardD . how much Sophies grandfather misses Grandma（4） Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A .
