Yet,despite the competition,my -year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest,a competition she won last year. As a writer I know about winning contestsand about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn't win the contest again? That's the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface. A revelation(启示)came last week when I asked her, " Don't you want to win again?" No," she replied," I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade. " I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously(自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall,I offered suggestions for characters,conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly "guided" by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it. Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade,I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting(借用)my daughter's experience. While stepping back was difficult for me,it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps,putting myself far enough a way to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that - 26 - children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices. 51. What do we learn from the first paragraph? A. A lot of distractions compete for children's time nowadays. B. Children do find lots of fun in many mindless activities. C. Rebecca is much too occupied to enjoy her leisure time. D. Rebecca draws on a lot of online materials for her writing. 52. What did the author say about her own writing experience? A. She was constantly under pressure of writing more. B. Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers. C. She did not quite live up to her reputation as a writer. D. Her way to success was full of pains and frustrations. 53. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year's writing contest? A. She had won a prize in the previous contest. B. She wanted to share her stories with readers. C. She was sure of winning with her mother's help. D. She believed she possessed real talent for writing. 【答案】51. A 52. D 53.

I got the name of an insurance agent from a friend and called the agent to get some information. From the kinds of questions I put to him,the agent would tell that I knew nothing about insurance so he kindly offered to explore the matter with me in more detail -to help me determine the kind of policy I ought to be considering. That evening he appeared at my door promptly at 7:30;without wasting time on - 26 - amenities he spread his papers out on the kitchen table and launched into a lengthy explanation. I listened attentively as he talked about the difference between various types of policies,and he explained the kind of coverage he felt I ought to have because of my age bracket and financial objectives. Toward the end of the evening (after three or four hours of talking),he kindly helped me fill out an application for a 50,000 dollar policy,and then he asked if I could go to a Dr. Luther's office on Friday for a physical examination. I don't know why,but it was not until the mention of the doctor's appointment that I realized fully what was happening. I was about to sign a lifetime contract yet I had not really made a decision about whether I wanted to buy the policy or not. As a matter of fact,the question of the need for a decision from me one way or the other had not even come up. Suddenly I felt sure that I definitely did not want to buy the policy. However, since he had spent so much time with me,I didn't want to make him feel that he had wasted his time. So I invented an excuse about things I had to do on Friday,and I assured him I would call him in a few days. Actually,I had no intention of going to see Dr. Luther or of calling the agent again. I wanted to forget the whole thing. It's been over three months now since our meeting,and my friendly insurance agent still calls at my office faithfully two or three times a week. My secretary knows that I don't want to talk to him,so when he calls she tells him that I'm in a meeting or that I'm out of the office or that I'm away on a business trip. I realize now that it was a mistake not to tell him outright that I'm not interested,and please not to bother me any more,all I can do is to avoid his calls and hope I don't run into him someplace. 54.

You dare not open it,instead,you hand it to him when he arrives home from school. You watch as his eyes light up and you know this is the beginning of something. You are just not sure what. Your son insists that the coach must really want him since he took the time to write him a letter. Is this in fact true?Did he write other kids and if so how many?How would you know? The simple fact of the matter is that you can read very little into that first letter. Coaches cast a wide net in the first few stages of the - 26 - recruiting(录取)cycle. That letter may in fact,be the first and last time your son ever hears from that particular coach. Think about it:if he has not seen your sons transcripts or his standardized test scores,if you have not visited the school,if he has no knowledge of your financial needs,can it be anything significant? So how do you treat these letters or emails?Is there some format you can apply?Say tor instance,three letters mean real interest…or three letters and a call means a greater degree of interest? My experience in deal with cases of various applications is that answers will not come automatically. Call the coach and find out how real the interest in fact is. "Is my son a top recruit in your mind?" "How many players at his position will you be recruiting this year?" By asking these simple and direct questions,you as a parent,will have established a dialogue and hopefully figured out how much interest,if any really exists. However,here comes the challenge. Applicants and parents are vague with coaches about their intention and level of interest all the time. In fact,the coach's situation is no less confusing than yours. He is fighting a similar battle on multiple choices. There is little clarity on either end. Enjoy that first letter. Let's hope it is one of many and let's hope you apply a bit of realism with a bit of wishful thinking about how happy your son should be when this is all over. 58. How did the parent feel about the letter that his son got from his dreamed school? ______ A. expectant B. hesitant C. doubtful D. hopeful 59 According to the passage,by calling the coach,parents can______ .

One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily difficulties. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses,from depression to heart disease,show that the presence of social support helps people protect themselves from illness,and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely. Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First,friends,relatives,and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second,other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to explain and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third,we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others - 26 - helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移……注意力)us from our worries and troubles. Finally,other people may give us instrumental support-financial aid,material resources,and needed services-that reduces stress by helping us solve and deal with our problems. 62. Research shows that people's physical and mental health has much to do with ______ . A. the social medical system B. the amount of support they get from others C. their strength for dealing with interpersonal ties D. their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles 63.

Social companionship is beneficial in that ______ . A. it helps strengthen our ties with relatives B. it enables us to get rid of our faults and mistakes C. it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyable D. it draws our attention away from our worries and troubles 【答案】62. C 63. B 64. B 65. D 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了我们是社会性的动物,所以我们的生活质量很大程度上取决于人际关系,并从四个方面阐述了人际关系对我们的好处。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such - 26 - ties.(有牢固社会关系的人比没有的人寿命更长,健康状况更好)可知,人的心理和身体的健康状况和人们的社会关系有关,即他们处理人际关系的能力。C. their strength for dealing with interpersonal ties(他们处理人际关系的能力)符合以上说法,故选C项。 【63题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第四段的Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties.可知,社会支持用多种方式cushions压力。首先,朋友、亲人和同事会让我们知道他们重视我们。当我们感到被别人接收时,我们的自尊心就会增强,尽管我们有缺点和错误。根据上下文语境,尤其是value和strengthen,以及accepted可推测划线部分的意思是“缓解/降低”。B. lessens the effect of(减少……的影响)符合以上猜测,故选B项。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的Finally, other people may give us instrumental support-financial aid, material resources, and needed services-that reduces stress by helping us solve and deal with our problems.(最后,一些人可能给我们提供工具性的支持,例如金融帮助,物质材料以及需要的服务,通过帮助解决我们的问题来减少我们的压力)可知,帮助一位生病的邻居做维修工作属于工具性支持。B. instrumental support(工具性支持)符合以上说法,故选B项。 【65题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的Third, we typically find social companionship supportive.
