One summer night, a by felt himself lifted frm bed by his father. Dazed with sleep, he saw stars flashing acrss the heavens. “What is it?” the child whispered. “Shting stars. They cme every year in August.” Decades have passed, but I remember that night still, because I was the frtunate by whse father believed a new experience was mre imprtant than an unbrken night’s sleep.
Sme parents like my father have the gift f pening drs fr their children. This art f adding dimensins t a child brings the reward: the marvelus mment when the spark bursts int a flame that will burn brightly n its wn ne day. At a Glf Assciatin turnament, a ten-year-ld girl played creditably. “Hw lng have yu been interested in glf?” smene asked. “I gt it fr my ninth birthday,” she said.“ Yur father gave yu a set f clubs?” “N,” she said, “he gave me glf.”
I have a friend, a psychiatrist, wh says there are tw types f peple: thse wh think f life as a privilege and thse wh think f it as a prblem. The first type is enthusiastic and energetic. The ther type is suspicius and self-centered. And he adds, “Tell me abut yur childhd and I can tell yu which type yu are likely t be.”
The real purpse, then, f trying t pen drs fr children is t build eager and utging attitudes, which is the mst valuable legacy we can pass n t the next generatin. But why dn’t we wrk harder at it? Prbably because smetimes we dn’t have the awareness r the selflessness r the energy. And yet, fr thse f us wh care what becmes f ur children, the challenge is always there but the pprtunities als cme repeatedly. Many years have passed since that night. And next year, when August cmes with its shting stars, my sn will be seven.
4. Why des the authr mentin the girl in Paragraph 2?
A. T shw parental impact n children’s passin.
B. T suggest hbbies always start frm the small.
C T highlight the imprtance f diverse experiences.
D. T prve true passin usually arises frm the reward.
5. What d the underlined wrds “adding dimensins t” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Setting an example fr.B. Bradening the hrizns f.
C. Prviding attentive care fr.D. Narrwing the pssibilities f.
6. What will the authr’s psychiatrist friend agree with?
A. Stability in upbringing builds cnfidence.
B Parenting styles requires prfessinal guidance.
C. Childhd experience determines adult happiness.
D. One’s persnality is related t childhd experiences.
7. What can we infer frm the last paragraph?
A. The authr is always addicted t shting stars.
B. It is a nce-in-a-lifetime chance t mtivate kids.
C. The authr will g t see shting stars with his sn.
D. It is impssible t unlck kids’ ptential withut eagerness.

The public nwadays has a misunderstanding f frest fires, believing that fires shuld be kept ut f every type f frest. Many f us can recall Smky the Bear's famus warning: “Remember, nly YOU can prevent frest fires”. Hwever, that's nt always the case. Under the right cnditins, and when cnducted safely, fire can create many envirnmental benefits as well as help prevent larger, uncntrllable wildfires.
After a frest fire, many wildlife species will mve int recently burned areas t feed n these newly available fds. Sme reptiles and amphibians such as the pine (松树） snake prefer frests frequently burned by fire. As Herbert Stddard put it, “One f the mst harmful things mdern man has dne t birds has been his attempt t exclude fire frm fire-type pine frests. Within a few years mst frests chke up with bushes, lse their prairie-like vegetatin (草原般植被） and can n lnger supprt birds dependent n peridic burning fr their fd supply and prper cver.”
If yu are asked t picture the frest flr, what d yu see? Pine needles, cnes, leaves, branches might cme t mind-all surces f fuel. If these fuel surces build up withut any type f remval, the 'fuel lad' can lead t fires catastrphic t frests and peple alike. In cntrast, prescribed fire can be used by frest prfessinals every cuple f years t keep frest fuels at an apprpriate and manageable level. They can als minimize the spread f pest insects and disease and remve unwanted tree and plant species. Plus, they can create and maintain imprtant wildlife habitats rich in grasses and prmte the grwth f trees, wildflwers and ther varius plants.
Many rganizatins and agencies wrk t prmte fire n the landscape when and where apprpriate. Smkey Bear even has an updated warning: “Only Yu can Prevent Wildfires,” as the Frest Service has ver the last few decades develped plicies and prcedures t include prescribed fire as a management tl, as well as cntinuing their wrk t prevent and fight wildfires.
8. Why did the authr mentin Smky the Bear's warning?
A. T intrduce the tpic f the passage.
B. T clarify a misunderstd cncept.
C. T shw the significance f fire preventin.
D. T raise peple's awareness f frest prtectin.
9. What can benefit birds accrding t Herbert Stddard?
A. Frest bushes.
B. Fuel surces.
C. Pine frests.
D. Peridic burning.
10 What is the purpse f prescribed fire?
A. T put ut wildfires.
B. T keep the frest balance.
C. T remve tree and plant species.
D. T keep the fuel rich in the frest.
11. What might be the best title fr the passage?
A. One Match Can Start A Frest Fire
B. Where There Is Smke There Is A Fire
C. Nt All Frest Fires Are Created Equal
D. Why Nt Keep The Frest Fire Burning
D
Hrrr mvies are designed t cause seemingly bad emtins — shck, fear and disgust. Yet many peple want t sit thrugh thse films. Why? Clasen, wh directs the Recreatinal Fear Lab at Aarhus University in Denmark, made a survey f mre than 250 American hrrr fans with his team, and the respnses f thse participants revealed three types f fans.
The first type felt great and were in high spirits. The secnd type reprted sme negative reactins t scary mvies, and sme even had nightmares at first, but they explained that they were feeling like they learned smething abut themselves at last. The third type f fans seemed t use hrrr t deal with bad feelings and events in real life. They supprted statements such as “Watching hrrr mvies makes me realize that everything in my wn life is OK.”
Accrding t previus studies, thrill seekers, wh ften seek ut new and intense experiences, tend t be hrrr fans. Men als seemed t be slightly bigger hrrr fans than wmen. Clasen’s teammates didn’t think s. “They are steretypes (老套),” they said. Men are less likely t admit in surveys that they are afraid f hrrr. Likewise, researchers think it’s unfair t paint all hrrr fans as thrill seekers. What may influence hw much peple like hrrr is smething called the need fr affectins. “Peple differ n that — hw much emtin they want in their lives,” Clasen explained.
After watching a hrrr mvie, yu culd be left unsettled and anxius, r yu have nightmares, but it may actually help yu becme mre prepared in real life. Hrrr fans reprted lwer levels f distress (忧虑) during the pandemic, fr instance. “That’s because hrrr mvies let peple practice negative emtins in a safe setting,” Clasen said. “That way, when it cmes t scary situatins in real life, yu knw hw t react quickly and crrectly.”
Gd r nt, scary mvies aren’t fr everyne. And that’s OK. “Mnster mvies are gd,” scilgist Margee Kerr said, “because yu knw that they’re nt real.” “If yu are nt ready t watch a hrrr mvie, there are ther ways t test yurself. One is writing yur wn hrrr-mvie stry. If yu are writing a stry abut smething that yu are afraid f, yu are taking cntrl f it,” she explained. “That can be really helpful.”
12. Hw did the secnd type f hrrr fans respnd after watching hrrr mvies?
A. The mvies made them feel wrried abut their real life fr sme time.
B. The mvies stpped the fans frm having unpleasant dreams.
C. The fans culd have a better understanding f themselves.
D. The fans felt fantastic and were in high spirits.
13. What d the researchers mainly want t express in paragraph 3?
A. The cncept f thrill seekers.B. The features f hrrr fans.
C. The reasn why peple need affectins.D. The reasn why peple lve hrrr.
14. Why is the pandemic mentined in paragraph 4?
A. Hrrr mvies can make peple unsettled and anxius in real life.
B. Hrrr mvies can help peple deal with scary situatins mre readily.
C. Hrrr mvies can help peple get rid f negative emtins in real life.
D. Hrrr mvies can make peple have a false judgement abut scary situatins.
15. What is the authr’s attitude twards watching hrrr mvie?
A. Skeptical.B. Supprtive.C. Disapprving.D. Objective.

The human brain has develped t interact with the wrld in as many ways as pssible, she ntes. She believes that yung children shuld learn t write by hand successfully, and, at the same time learn t manage a keybard.
____18____. Her new findings prve this. This is because writing and printing invlve cmplex mvements that activate mre areas f the brain. The increased brain activity, “gives the brain mre ‘hks’ t hang yur memries n,” she explains.

Vander Meer als pints ut that taking ntes by hand stimulates “visual nte-taking”. Rather than typing blindly, the visual nte-taker has t think abut what is imprtant t write dwn. Then, key wrds can be “interlinked (互连的) by bxes, and arrws, and supplemented by small drawings”.
A. Yung kids shuld learn several basic drawing skills.
B. It is believed that typing may be easier fr yung children.
C. Using a pen invlves mre f the brain than using a keybard.

Catherine was the clest kid in her class. Whenever she went, she was in the sptlight, with a bunch f kids fllwing her and ding everything she did.
Her deskmate, Landy, hwever, was nt in the cl kids’ grup. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was teased by her classmates, wh were always chanting “Landy, Landy, lng as spaghetti (意大利面 )”. Every time Landy heard thse silly chants, she culd feel her face burst int flames. Gd knew hw she wished the grund t crack and swallw her!
Catherine didn’t really like it when the kids chanted “Landy, Landy, lng as spaghetti”. But she never tld them t stp either, and nr did she ever talk t her. She liked being ppular.
One weekend, Catherine went ver t her grandfather fr Thanksgiving. Her grandfather lives n a farm at the ppsite end f twn, where he keeps chickens. While helping t feed the chickens, Catherine nticed a peculiar ne. Curling in the crner, it lked smaller than the thers and was almst half-bare!
“What’s the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frwn n her face. Her grandfather tld her hw chickens culd act. “They have a pecking (啄) rder,” he explained, wrinkles f cncern spreading arund his frehead. “If ne chicken is different, the thers will push it away and keep pecking it. Smetimes they peck it s much that it dies.”
“Oh, what a pr little thing!” Catherine let ut a sigh as she scped the frightened chicken up in her arms, whse heart was beating fast in the bny little bdy. Suddenly, she thught f Landy, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m ging t take it hme and take gd care f it,” she said with a determined lk.
Back in schl, Catherine tld the cl kids abut the chicken. “It’s lking healthy,” she said prudly. “It’s fatter and its feathers are grwing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it arund the garden, and...” Everyne was entertained by Catherine’s stry f her lvely chicken, laughter lingering arund the classrm.
