If they can 21 it, they will certainly send them to the best universities. But they need not feel 22 if they cant. If the children really want to go, theyll find a 23 . There are plenty of loans and scholarships for the bright and 24 ones who cant afford to pay.When children grow up and want to 25 , their parents do not owe them a down payment on a house. They do not have the 26 to baby-sit their grandchildren. If they want to do it, it must be considered a 27 not an obligation (责任，义务).Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their obligations is to give their children a personal 28 . A child who is constantly made to feel stupid and unworthy, constantly 29 to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins will become so 30 , so afraid of failing that he (or she) wont try at all. Of course they should be 31 corrected when they do wrong, but its often better to let children learn their mistakes by themselves 32 . All our parents should do is to trust them, respect them, tolerate (宽容) them and give them chances to try and fail. They must learn to stand 33 . When criticisms (批评) are really needed, they should be 34 with praises, with a smile and a kiss. That is the way children learn.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around 35 to build their lives. This means teaching them to 36 the rights and opinions of others; it means being respectful to elders, to teachers, and to the law. The best way to teach such values is by deed and _37_.

Generally, its rock but influenced and mixed by different styles within the genre. Read on and find out where Haliks music gets its inspiration.Blues rockRepresentative artists: Guns N Roses, The Rolling Stones, John MayeBlues rock combines improvisation (即兴创作) with rock n roll style. It began to develop in the mid-1960s in Britain and the US, when rock bands such as the Rolling Stones experimented with music from older African-American blues musicians. It borrows the idea of instrumental combo from blues but is played at a faster tempo and louder volume, distinguishing it from the blues. The sound is created with the electric guitar, piano, bass and drums.As the root for several contemporary rock styles, such as heavy metal and hard rock, blues rock had a rebirth in the early 2000s, with artists including John Mayer and The Black Keys.Folk rockRepresentative artists: Bob Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel, The Byrds As the name indicates, folk rock is a genre combining elements of folk music and rock music. Also developed in the mid-1960s, folk rock was pioneered by the US band The Byrds, who began playing traditional folk music and Bob Dylan-penned material with rock instruments, in a style heavily influenced by The Beatles and other British bands. The genre was most popular among teenagers and college students at the time, because it includes both rock n rolls free spirit and the more serious, culturally authentic and socially aware sounds of folk music.Soft rockRepresentative artists: Bryan Adams, Eagles, Elton John, James Blunt Compared to hard rocks loud and aggressive nature, soft rock, or light rock, uses the techniques of rock music to compose a softer and less threatening sound. Derived from folk rock, it uses acoustic instruments and puts more emphasis on melody and harmony. Although the genre gets quite a bad name among hardcore rock fans, who see it as “wimpy”, it doesnt mean soft rock is without merit (优点). Soft rock songs often deal with themes like romantic relationships and everyday life in a thoughtful and complex way hard rock simply couldnt.41.Which of the artists playing traditional folk music and Bob Dylan-penned material with rock instruments first?A. The Byrds. B. Guns N Roses. C. Eagles. D. The Beatles.42.We can learn from the passage that _.A. the Rolling Stones ignored African-American musicians wokB. blues rock gained a second birth in the 2000sC. soft rock focus more on melody and culture awareness D. all the three rock styles developed in America43.What is hardcore rock fans attitude towards soft rock?A.

To offer the readers some suggestions of composing rock music BSoft drinks have been linked to a number of health problems, includingdiabetes, heart disease, and obesity. And now a new study suggests that drinking even a single sugary soda a day can cause cells in your body to age prematurely.It all has to do with telomeres(染色体终端), the protective caps on theends of our chromosomes. Previous research has shown that telomeres tend to shorten as we grow older, and this new study suggests that drinking soda hastens the process.Having shortened telomeres is a strong predictor of developing chronic diseases earlier in life, study co-author Dr. Elissa Epel, director of the University of California, San FranciscosAging, Metabolism, and Emotion Center, told The Huffington Post in a telephone interview. So in addition to obesity, theres another path through which soda can be impacting our health.In fact, thesodas apparent effect on telomere lengthseems roughly comparable to the effect caused by smoking, Dr. Cindy Leung, are searcher at the universityand the studys lead author, said in a written statement. Yikes.For the study, the researchers measured telomere length in DNA taken from 5,309 healthy men and women between the ages of 20 and 65 and then looked at how much sugar-sweetened soda each person reported drinking on a regular basis. The data were from the years 1999 through 2002.The researchers found that the telomeres of people who reportedhaving an 8-ounce daily serving of sodashowed that the peoples biological age was older by 1.9 years, TIME magazine reported. Drinking a daily 20-ounce serving was linked to 4.6 more years of biological aging.“This is the first demonstration that soda is associated with telomere shortness,” Epel said in the written statement. “This finding held regardless of age, race, income and education level.”Of course, the fact that soda consumption and short telomeres were linked doesnt actually prove that drinking soda is causing the telomeres to shorten. But our results are highly suggestive that drinking soda would make your cells age faster, Leung told The Huffington Post in an email. Studies like ours provide initial discoveries that can be explored further in experimental studies, which help to determine the nature of this important relationship.45. The researchers measured telomere length in DNA from more than 5,000 healthy people because_.A. they wanted to find the possible relationship between soft drinks and obesityB. they predicted the secret of heart disease would be found out.C. they reported soft drinks were related to telomere shorteningD. they found that the more you drink sugar soda, the more possibility you have to get diseases46. The underlined word “ impacting” in 3rd paragraph most probably means_.A. effect B. influence C. value D. compromise47. From the passage, we learn that drinking sugary soda may contribute to _.A. bad eating habit B. growing shorter C. shortness of caps of chromosomes D. shorter length of life48. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Soft Drinks Make your Cell Age Fast B. Telomeres Matter Much C. Soda Consumption Should Be Reduced D. Drinks Cause Healthy Problems49. This passage is probably taken from _.A .a book review B. a report of a hospital C. a discovery of a lab D. a journal of public healthCThe South Korean Ministry of Education is investing2.4 billion into making the countrys school system completely digital. The plan is to get rid of textbooks and replace them with digital learning materials stored in a central database, which students would get into with PCs. Though some digital education programs have been tried in the U.S. and other countries, few can match the South Koreas plan. While it will certainly be interesting to spread out, a completely paperless school system will surely stand out for other countries to follow. Perhaps the digital learning revolution will have its start in Seoul.The digital development has improved our personal lives. It is a matter of time before they finally have an effect on other fields. Its an exciting time in education- whether youre a CEO setting plans for growth, an IT expert making new technology decisions or an educator giving lively courses. All of us are connected by the movement of a more digital campus. Todays generation has combined web-based technology into their daily lives. Expectations are forming: lively contentanytime, anywhere and on any equipment. And those expectations arent just for funtheyre spreading into the education space as well. Expanding our digital footprints isnt just an excitementits a necessity. And CEOs and IT experts arent the only ones feeling the pressure to improve-educators are as well. We need to support the way teaching is carried out.More and more studies report a change from teaching to learning- moving away from giving lectures of facts to encouraging skills of self-study, analysis and learning paths; from courses built using a single textbook to numbers of available publisher materials; and from dull content to lively digital advantages that connect the learners, providing real-time response. Students arent the only ones benefiting from this change. Educators can now easily build lively online courses while increasing student outcomes. And for the IT professionals that help make this possible, Balckboard and McGraw Hill now have a solution thats as powerful as it is easy to fix. 50.

DAs I walk up the sidewalk to the small, wooden house surrounded by beautiful, colorful flowers, my grandparents are already waiting for my family and me on the front porch. “Hi, Huelo and Huela,” I say as I embrace my grandmother first, then my grandfather, giving each of them a peck on the cheek. “Hi, mija!” they respond. My grandmother, a pleasantly plump woman in her mid-sixties with short gray hair, gently pats my behind as she hurries me along inside the house.The interior of the house is decorated with pictures of grandchildren everywhere. While sitting on the worn couch covered with crocheted furniture covers, I spot the large picture of myself in a quinceaero dress on the opposite wall. The picture brings back many pleasant memories of that special day when I turned fifteen. It represented the day t
