8、 C.Kenya D.Egypt 23.The shared goal of GDAs projects is to _.A.explore new cultures B.protect the environment C.gain corporate benefit D.help communities in need B In the ongoing battle between Tiger Moms,French Mamas,and everyone else who wants to know what is the best way to raise their kids,a new

9、 study adds evidence that the extreme Tiger-style may do more harm than good.Authoritarian parents are more likely to end up with disrespectful children with violent behaviors,the study found,compared to parents who listen to their kids with the goal of gaining trust.It was the first study to look a

10、t how parenting styles affect the way teens view their parents and,in turn,how they behave.The study considered three general styles of parenting.Authoritative parents are demanding and controlling while also being warm and sensitive to their childrens needs.Authoritarian parents,on the contrary,are

11、 demanding and controlling without the appearance of caring,attachment and receptiveness.They take a“my way or the highway”approach to their kids.Permissive parents,the third group,have warm and receptive qualities,but they set few boundaries and carry out few rules.Using data on early 600 kids from

12、 an ongoing study of middle school and high school students in New Hampshire,researchers from the University of New Hampshire were able to find“my way or the highway”parenting with more violent behaviors like robbery,drug-taking,and attacking someone else with the intention of hurting or killing.Fir

13、m but loving parenting,on the other hand,led to fewer lawbreakers.Permissive parenting,surprisingly,didnt seem to make much of a difference either.To explain the rink between parenting style and behavior in kids,the researchers suggested that what matters most is how reasonable kids think their pare

14、nts power is.This sense comes when kids trust that their parents are making the best decisions for them and believe that they need to do what their parents say even if they dont always like how their parents are treating them.When kids respect the power of their parents,the researchers reported in t

15、he journal of Adolescence,their behavior is better.Previous research has also linked firm but caring parenting with kids who have more self-control and independence.“When children consider their parents to be the reliable figure,they trust the parents and feel that they have a duty to do what their

16、parents tell them to do,”said lead researcher Pick Trinkner.“This is very important as the parent doesnt have to rely on a system of rewards and punishments to control behavior and the child is more likely to follow the rules when the parent is not physically present.”24.Tiger Moms and French Mamas

17、are mentioned in the first paragraph to _.A.give an example of authoritarian parenting B.show the advantage of parenting C.compare two types of parenting D.introduce the topic 25.According to the research,what kind of parenting style is likely to cause childrens criminal behaviors?A.Caring parenting

18、 B.Permissive parenting C.Authoritarian parenting D.Authoritative parenting.26.Which of the following probably belongs to the action of the permissive parents?A.Allowing the kids to stay up late at weekends as the kids like.B.Beating the kids if the kids dont follow their instructions.C.Refusing to

19、listen to the kids requests and demands.D.Setting some rules and checking the kids behaviors.27.According to the passage,children are more likely to obey the rules when _.A.their parents listen to them totally B.they believe in and accept their parents C.their parents are sensitive to their needs D.

20、their parents demand and control their behaviors C A breathtaking trick potentially left over from our ancestors might be found in us the ability to sense oxygen through our skin.Amphibians,animals such as frogs that can live both on land and in water,have long been known to be capable of breathing

21、through their skin.In fact,the first known lungless frog that breathes only through its skin was discovered recently in the rivers of Borneo.Now the same oxygen sensors found in frog skins and in the lungs of mammals(哺乳动物)have unexpectedly been discovered in the skin of mice.“No one had ever looked,

22、”explained Randall Johnson,a biologist researcher.Mice and frogs are quite distant relatives,so the fact they have these molecules(分子)in common in their skin suggests they might well be found in the skin of other mammals,such as humans.“We have no reason to think that they are not in the skin of peo

23、ple too,”Johnson said.These molecules not only detect oxygen,but help increase levels of vital red blood cells,which carry oxygen around the body.Normal mice breathing in air that is 10 percent oxygena dangerously low level similar to conditions at the top of Mount Everest,and about half that of air

24、 at sea level.However,mice that had the oxygen sensor HIF-1a genetically removed from their skin failed to produce this hormone(荷尔蒙)even after hours of such low oxygen.These findings,if they hold true in humans,suggest one could raise the level of oxygen circulating inside the body.This could help t

25、reat lung diseases and disorders such as anemia(贫血症)without injecting drugs,which make up a multibillion-dollar market,Johnson said.Athletes also often try to get more oxygen delivered to their muscles in order to improve their performance.They often do this by training at high altitudes or in low-o

26、xygen tents.The new study suggests they might want to expose their skin as well as breathing in low-oxygen air to improve their performance.“Its hard to say what exactly might be done,howevertheres a lot we dont know yet,”Johnson explained The scientists detailed their findings in the April 18 issue

27、 of the journal Cell.28.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Johnson believes that Oxygen sensors also exist in human skin.B.People have to surf the Internet to read detailed findings.C.It has been proved that these findings help treat lung diseases.D.It has long been

28、 expected oxygen sensors exist in mices skin.29.One of the functions of the molecules mentioned above is _.A.carrying oxygen around the body B.improving athletes performance C.detecting oxygen D.increasing level of oxygen 30.What does the underlined word circulating in paragraph 8 most probably mean

29、?A balancing B growing C.moving D.gathering 31.What is Johnsons attitude to the application of the findings to the athletes training?A.Negative B.Doubting C.Positive D.Hesitating D Humans are social animals.They live in groups all over the world.As these groups of people live apart from other groups

30、,over the years and centuries they develop their own habits and ideas,which are different from other cultures.One important particular side of every culture is how its people deal with time.Time is not very important in nonindustrial(非工业的)societies.The Nuer people of East Africa,for example,do not e

31、ven have a word TIME that is in agreement with the abstract thing we call time.The daily lives of the people of such nonindustrial societies are likely to be patterned around their physical needs and natural events rather than around a time schedule(时间表)based on the clock.They cook and eat when they

32、 are hungry and sleep when the sun goes down.They plant crops during the growing seasons and harvest them when the crops are ripe.They measure time not by a clock or calendar,but by saying that an event takes place before or after some other event.Frequently such a society measures days in terms of“

33、sleeps”or longer periods in terms of“moons”.Some cultures,such as the Eskimos of Greenland measure seasons according to the migration of certain animals.Some cultures which do not have a written language or keep written records have developed interesting ways of“telling time”.For example,when severa

34、l Australian aborigines want to plan an event for a future time,one of them places a stone on a cliff or in a tree.Each day the angle of the sun changes slightly.In a few days,the rays of the sun strike the stone in a certain way.When this happens,the people see that the agreed-upon time has arrived

35、 and the event can take place.In contrast(成对比),exactly correct measurement of time is very important in modern,industrialized societies.This is because industrialized societies require the helpful efforts of many people in order to work.For a factory to work efficiently(well,quickly and without wast

36、e),for example,all of the workers must work at the same time.Therefore,they must know what time to start work in the morning and what time they may go home in the afternoon.Passengers must know the exact time that an airplane will arrive or depart.Students and teachers need to know when a class star

37、ts and ends.Stores must open on time in order to serve their customers.Complicated(复杂的)societies need clocks and calendars.Thus,we can see that if each person worked according to his or her own schedule,a complicated society could hardly work at all.32.By saying“Humans are social animals”,the author

38、 means _.A.they live all over the world B.They are all connected in one society C.they live in their own groups as a whole D.they are divided into many groups 33.Time is not very important in nonindustrial societies because people in those societies _.A.dont have the word TIME in their languages B.d

39、ont get used to using clocks and other timepieces C.dont measure time in their daily-lives around an exact time schedule D.dont need to plan their daily lives around an exact time schedule 34.The Australian aborigines way of“telling time”is based on _.A.the change of the angle of the sun B.the way s

40、unlight was reflected C.the position of the stone D.the position of the tree or the cliff 35.Which of the following might be the best title for this passage?A.Time and Culture B.The Measurement of Time C.Time Schedule and Daily Life D.Clock,Calendar and Society 第三部分 七选五（共 5 题：每小题 1 分，满分 5 分）Is Dieti
