3、    It’s a small piece—merely a square brick drawing a curly-haired Archangel Gabriel—but it may be the oldest surviving artwork by the Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci. If confirmed, this painting may show historians what da Vinci looked like as a teenager. That’s because the 1471 creation may,in fact, be a self-portrait da Vinci made when he was just 18 years old.

    However, many doubt the artwork’s authenticity. Martin Kemp, an retired professor of art history at Oxford University who is a Leonardo expert, dismissed the claim absolutely. “The chance of its being by Leonardo is less than zero," Kemp told The Guardian. “The silly season for Leonardo never closes."

    The nearly 8-inch-by-8-inch square brick may contain clues linking it to da Vinci, according to Ernesto Solaris an art historian and da Vinci expert, and Ivana Rosa BonJfantino, a handwriting expert. Both say that a signature and date written on the angels jawline- —which reads “Da Vinci Lionardo” with the date “ 1471 "一closely match da Vinci's handwriting.

    Next to the 1471 date are the numbers 52 and 72. It’s possible the 52 is a reference to 1452, Leonardo’s birth year. Meanwhile,the 7 and 2 may refer to the letters “G” and “B” (G is the seventh letter of the alphabet, and B is the second), which could stand for Gabriel. “These numbers arc more :than a signature. It is typical of the famous puzzles that he loved all his life,” Solari said.

    When analyzing the handwriting, Bonfantino reviewed documents known to belong to da Vinci. Bonfantino noticed that the “1” in the 1471 date was shorter than the other numbers, which matched the previous examples of da Vinci's writing.

1.What do we know about the painting?

A.It is higher than 8-inches.

B.It is a self-portrait drawn by historians.

C.It may be the oldest artwork drawn by Leonardo da Vinci.

D.It is only a square piece with a curly-haired character.

2.What does the underlined word “dismissed” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.Disagreed.

B.Fined.

C.Removed.

D.Disliked.

3.Why do Solari and Bonfantino think the painting contain clues about da Vinci?

A.It is typical of him to express love.

B.It has an important influence on him.

C.The numbers next to the 1471 are his birthday.

D.The signature and date is the same as his handwriting.

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A.A doubtful painting from da Vinci.

B.A discussion about the artwork.

C.An introduction about da Vinci's painting.

D.A description about da Vinci's handwriting.

4、    Have you ever heard of agritourism where you can experience farm life? If not, Dr. Cindy Ayers-Elliott will tell you the real story of Foot Print Farms.

    The original concept of building Foot Print Farms was simple. When Ayers-Elliott returned to her hometown after graduation,she didn' t have to look any further than her state' s alarming health statistics to find a mission. Everywhere she turned, there were reports of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and heart disease. “The problem was already identified." explains Ayers-Elliott. “Too many Mississippians were seriously unhealthy and it didn’t take research to see that. And many of the state' s greatest health challenges could directly result from poor diet. ”

    These days,Foot Print Farms, which started with a few raised beds of herbs and vegetables, is making fresh, naturally grown food. "When speaking of the key to my success,the co-op model works because we share the work and rewards,” notes Ayers-Elliott. “ A perfect example is the Wingfield High School football team. To earn the money for equipment and other items, players committed to working five hours a week on the farm,and by the end of the summer they had produced 1,000 melons and the profits from their sales helped to buy weights,T-shirts,sweat suits and pregame meals. But the lessons they learned about the rewards of hard work and working together to accomplish something were even more valuable products of their efforts. ”

    "It' s a model that can easily be learned in other places and I' m looking forward to seeing some of our current partners do just that——to take what they have learned here and spin it off in other communities,"Ayers-Elliott remarks. She is now looking forward to developing an agritourism aspect to the farm, where visitors can experience farm life, learn new skills and take with them seeds of inspiration they can sow in their own communities when they return home.

1.What made Ayers-Elliott set up Foot Print Farms?

A.The problems faced by local farmers.

B.Her further research into heart disease.

C.The failure of her career after graduation.

D.The health state of people in her hometown.

2.Why does the author take the football team as an example?A. To advocate the concept of independence.B. To stress the importance of teamwork.C. To support the idea of co-op model.D. To explore the key to success.

A.To advocate the concept of independence.

B.To stress the importance of teamwork.

C.To support the idea of co-op model.

D.To explore the key to success.

3.What is Ayers-Elliott' s attitude towards the future of Foot Print Farms?

A.Optimistic.

B.Skeptical.

C.Cautious.

D.Ambiguous.

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A.Naturally grown food benefits people’s health.

B.Food Print Farms is making a difference in Mississippi.

C.Ayers-Elliott encourages people to experience farm

D.Agritourism is becoming increasingly popular in America.

5、Why you shouldn’t punish your kids for lying

Getting your children to stop lying is challenging. There are many influences (TV, movies, video games and some great books) in which lies are common. Children see parents lie to others, if only to be polite. Most parents add to that with tales about the lives and activities of Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, or to lessen fears. ①__________ The most common reactions to children who lie are explaining why it is wrong and punishment. ②__________ Here are three better tools supported by research to use instead.

PRAISE: You could ask your child to say something that happened at school that is true. When your child obeys, praise him enthusiastically. Be specific: ③__________ and give your child a hug or a high five. Aim for one or two interactions (互动) like this a day. If you happen to “catch” your child in a lie, say something like, “That is not true and could get you in trouble outside of the home.”

MODEL: Explicitly tell the truth. This could be about something that happened when you were a child or something that happened during the day. It need not be dramatic. Another option is to play a game at dinner. Each person tells one thing that was true that day. Again, give a little praise to the child who normally lies if she plays along.DECREASE PUNISHMENT AND MORALIZING: They are unlikely to change behavior or develop the conduct you want. ④__________ Rather, use very mild punishment (light scolding, short loss of privilege, a brief time-out). More severe punishments (shouting, taking away something for a week, hitting) are not more effective in actually changing the frequency of lying.

⑤__________ Usually they can be dropped by then. It is unlikely that lying will be completely removed, but with the right encouragement, k can be dramatically lessened. 

A. It is not what that is, but about practice.

B. As ways of changing behavior, these are ineffective.

C. That does not mean ignoring, lying or letting it go.

D. “That was great! You told me what happened just like I asked. Wow!”

E. Try these procedures for two to three weeks and see where you are.

F. “You did a good job, but what you said was not what I’d like to know!”

G. Parents do this out of love, but for some children, lying can become a problem.

6、There is something beyond your exception. There was once a boatman who     1     his living by transporting passengers from one     2     of the riverbank to the other.

One particular day，while he was resting，a businessman came and asked     3    , “Transport me to the     4     side of the river. ”

“Yes，please come     5    ，” answered the boatman.

“How much do you     6     for the trip?” asked the businessman.

“Eight coins each way，” answered the boatman.

“Eight coins!” exclaimed the businessman. “That is too     7    ! I will pay you six coins.”

The boatman then began the journey     8     saying a word. He rowed and rowed towards the opposite bank. When he was about to reach the other side, he stopped and said, “You may     9     here.”

The businessman was     10    ，“You expect me to     11     here，right into the river?”

The boatman replied politely，“Six coins will only take you here，and eight coins will take you to the riverbank.”

The businessman then said, “Well then，take me back to     12     we came from.” He thought the boatman would think it     13     to send him back and would just send him to the other side.

The boatman just replied，“Sure!” He then began to row back to where they began their     14     When they arrived，the boatman said， “Altogether twelve coins，six coins     15     way.” The businessman then     16     that the boatman was really     17     about it. Then he said，“I am sorry，I will pay you the full fare. Please send me over to the other side now.”

The boatman began to     18     towards the opposite riverbank.

So how much did the businessman have to     19     finally? Well，twelve coins plus eight coins，a     20     of twenty coins!

9答案：

Dear editor,

    I am Li Hua, a visiting student from China. In your recent issue, an article about the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival left a deep impression on me. I’m much obliged to you for introducing Chinese culture to your people, which will surely bridge the gap between our countries.

But I found a flaw in the picture that goes with the article. Actually, we compete with dragon boats, not your familiar rowing boats. That is because dragons are considered as a symbol of the Chinese culture. I sincerely hope you can revise the boat information and thus readers will have a better understanding of China.

    Thank you in advance for efforts you will make.

Yours,

Li Hua
