Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mom, I cant peel potatoes. I have only one hand.”Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And dont ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod(钢管) to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “well see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung(横档) I reached. Ill never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open. One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”For a long time, I didnt hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday you will be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint and cracking. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.41.

Officials from the university are reluctant(不情愿的) to give interviews. “We had a hard time calming down students who were shocked at the suicides,” said Zhang Jingyuan, head of HUSTs center for research and guidance for students development. “Media coverage(报导) may arouse some students negative emotions again. Suicide can be contagious(传染性的),” Zhang said. The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23. Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression. Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them. Notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers mental problems and offering help were set up in front of dorm buildings. Leaflets(传单) carrying similar information were handed out to each dorm. However, the second suicide came seven days later. Both students were described as men of few words. Their schoolmates didnt see anything to indicate suicide. Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered by mental disorders. But the school didnt know this until the students close friends outside school and their parents unveiled(揭露) the truth after the suicides. According to Zhang, there are only three full-time counselors (心理辅导专家)working in the universitys counseling center for its 60,000 students. He complained: “Its unrealistic to rely only on counselors to detect students mental problems.” Some universities in the US may be able to offer solutions to Zhangs worries. They have established programs to train students to be the bridge between troubled friends and counselors. At Worcester Polytechnic Institute, at Worcester, Massachusetts, US, young people in the Student Support Network role play to learn how to detect SOS signals from their schoolmates. They also practice how to gently persuade emotionally troubled students to go for professional help. To develop such empathy(同理心), many universities in China have organized campus events to popularize knowledge about mental health. But these are not that attractive to students. Ke Juanjuan, 24, is pursuing a masters degree in English translation at HUST. Ke has found that few of her peers will pay attention to activities about mental health when they are not troubled by it. Rather than bombard students with the words “mental health”, Ke suggested the school organize lectures and workshops concerning study, job-hunting and relationships. She explained: “Students care about these topics. They tend to have problems in these areas and may thus get stuck in depression. “By helping students better deal with these problems, the school can effectively prevent self-inflicted injury and suicide among students.” Effective prevention comes from long-term education for life instead of temporary intervention(干预) to meet an emergency, said Hu Yian. Hu delivers a course of lectures on life and death at Guangzhou University. He worries that universities have paid little attention to education for life. “Education for life helps students respect and love life so they wont resort（诉诸） to ending their lives when they have difficulties,” said Hu. According to Hu, the principles can be incorporated(结合) into everyday teaching.46. In which column of a newspaper would you most probably read this passage? A. Forum B. Culture C. Advertisement D. Campus47. Which one of the following is NOT one of the reasons why officials from the university are reluctant to give interviews? A. Media coverage may arouse some students negative emotions again. B. They had a hard time calming down students who were shocked at the suicides. C. The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23. D. Two suicides within a week is really a nightmare for the university. 48. The writer mentions Worcester Polytechnic Institute to_. A. encourage universities in China to organize campus events to popularize knowledge about mental health. B. show their students are good at persuading emotionally troubled peers to go for professional help. C. show that Zhangs complaint is wrong. D. give an example of the universities in the US that have established programs to train students to be the bridge between troubled friends and counselors. 49. Which one of the following sentences is NOT true? A. According to Ke Juanjuan, students tend to have problems in study, job-hunting and Relations. B. According to Hu, education for life can be incorporated into everyday teaching. C. According to Hu Yian, education for life helps students respect and love life so they wont commit suicide when they have difficulties. D. Effective prevention comes from temporary intervention to meet an emergency. 50. What is most likely to be talked about in the paragraph following the passage? A. The function of education for life. B. The ways of education for life. C. How to incorporate education for life into everyday teaching D. The importance of education for life.CShould we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons for example, economic (经济的) reasons-why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的)and do not like change.Although we have to respect peoples feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different , even though that might be the more risky choice.51. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A. They are more pleasing than modern buildings. B. Most of them ate too expensive to preserve.C. Some of them are not attractive. D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.52. Which of the following is true according to the author ?A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.B. Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C. No one understands why people speak against new buildings.D. Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.53. By “move things forward ” in the last paragraph , the author probably means“ ”A. Destroy old buildings B. Choose new architectural stylesC. Put things in a different place D. Respect peoples feelings for hi
