She said she never told her husband, Norman, that she lost the ring, but only told her son. Her husband died five years ago.‎ ‎“I feel glad and happy, ”Grams said this week . “It grew into the carrot. I feel it amazing”,‎ Her daughter-in-law, Calleen Daley, found the ring while getting carrots in for supper with her dog Billy at the farm near Armena‎, ‎Alberta, where Grams used to live. The farm has been in the family for 105 years. Daley said while she was pulling the carrots she noticed one of them looked strange. She almost fed it to her dog but decided to keep it. When she was washing the carrots, she noticed the ring and spoke to her husband, Grams’son, about what she had found.‎ They quickly called Grams. “I told her we found her ring in the garden. She couldn’t believe it, ”Daley said. “It was so strange that the carrot grew perfectly through that ring. ”‎ Grams said she wanted to try the ring on again after so many years. With her family looking on, she washed the ring with a little soap to get the dirt off. It moved on her finger as easily as it did when her husband gave it to her.‎ ‎“We were laughing,” she said. “It fits. After so many years it still fits perfectly.”‎ ‎1.

Shawna Reynolds has seen some of those women up close while working in the corrections system(劳教所) for 17 years, and she was encouraged to try something different.‎ After seven years of education and collecting as much money as she could, Shawna created About Face Course Correction-a one-year rehabilitation program(康复项目) that offers a more personal way to help non-violent women prisoners. The program includes classes for women to finish their education, find a job and so on.“You can’t expect people who have been in prison to stay in prison,” Shawna says.“YOU want them to be helpful people but if you are not going to help them, it’s not going to happen.”‎ The women live free for a year in a house in Dearborn Heights‎, ‎Michigan. A 20-year-old woman ,Jennifer Douglas, who dropped out of school, took drugs (吸毒)，and has spent years in and out of prison, says, “I was doing things I would never have thought I would do in my whole life.” Because of About Face, Jennifer’s life is changing. “Everyone is starting to trust me again and proud of me and what I’m doing,” she says. “It’s helped me a lot. It has kept me on the right track.”‎ There are many other women like Jennifer. Every woman’s story is different, but each woman is important. And Shawna is determined to break the cycle and help them turn their lives around. She is using her own money and donations to pay for the house and this program. If you would like to donate, please visit their Go Fund Me account here.‎ ‎4.

To tell a story about Jennifer Douglas.‎ C. To introduce Shawna and her program. D. To show Shawna has been in trouble.‎ C Americans wear black for mourning(哀悼) while Chinese wear white. Westerners think of dragons as monsters. Chinese honor them as symbols of God. Chinese civilization has often shown such polarities(对立) with the West, as though each stands at extreme ends of a global string. Now in the University‎ of ‎California, Berkeley, a psychologist, has discovered deeper polarities between Chinese and American cultures—polarities that go to the heart of how we reason and discover truth.‎ His findings go far toward explaining why American cultures seem to be aggressive and Chinese cultures so passive, when compared to each other. More importantly, the research opens the way for the peoples of the East and the West to learn from each other in basic ways. The Chinese could learn much from Western methods for determining scientific truth, said Kaiping Peng, a former Beijing Scholar, who is now a UC Berkley assistant professor of psychology. And Americans could profit enormously from the Chinese tolerance for accepting contradictions in social and personal life, he said.‎ ‎“Americans have a terrible need to find out who is right in an argument,” said Peng. “The problem is that at the interpersonal level you really don’t need to find the truth, or maybe there isn’t any.” Chinese people, said Peng, are far more content to think that both sides have advantages and disadvantages, because they have a whole awareness that life is full of contradictions(矛盾). They do far less blaming（责备） of the individual than do Americans, he added.‎ In studies of interpersonal argument, for example, when subjects were asked to deal with contradictory information resulting from conflict between a mother and a daughter or a student and a school, Peng found that Americans were “non-compromising(折中), blaming one side—usually the mother — for the causes of the problems, demanding changes from one side to attain a solution and offering no compromise” in dealing with the conflict. Compared to this angry, blaming American method, the Chinese were paragons(模范) of compromise, finding fault on both sides and looking for solutions that moved both sides to the middle.‎ ‎8．In Paragraph 1, the author sets examples in order to ___.‎ ‎ A．expose the contradiction between Chinese and Americans ‎ B．show the differences between Chinese culture and American culture ‎ C．find the reason for the differences ‎ D．generalize the main idea of the passage ‎9．In the opinion of Peng, compared with Americans, Chinese are ___.‎ ‎ A. likely to find the truth in life ‎ B. unwilling to admit their own failure ‎ C. unwilling to have a general idea of things ‎ D. likely to know advantages and disadvantages of things ‎10．The studies show ___.‎ A．an American treats his or her mother badly ‎ B．different ideas of treating the aged C．different personality of Chinese and Americans D．different hobbies of Americans and Chinese ‎11．The main idea of the passage is ___.‎ A．polarities between American and Chinese cultures B．extreme ends of the string C．different attitudes towards the aged D．different manners in social occasions D Sport is not only physically challenging, but can also be mentally challenging. Criticism（批评） from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological(心理的) and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.‎ The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback（反馈） to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.‎ Coaches and parents should also pay attention that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters’ performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.‎ ‎12. An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes is____________.‎ A. to make sport less competitive B. to reduce their mental stress C. to increase their sense of success D. to make sport more challenging ‎13. According to the passage, sport is positive for young people because____________.‎ A. it can help them learn more about society B. it enables them to find faults in themselves C. it can provide them with valuable experiences D. it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves ‎14. Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes____________.‎ A. so as to put more pressure on them B. in order to make them remember life’s lessons C. believing that criticism does good to their early development D. without realizing criticism may destroy their self-confidence ‎15. According to the passage parents and coaches should___________.‎ A. pay more attention to letting children enjoy sport B. help children to win every game C. train children to deal with stress D. enable children to understand the positive aspect of sport 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The pine tree(松树) is a special kind of tree. ___16___This is because many people put pine trees in their homes at Christmas time.

Parents can easily get informed of their homework and marks in tests.‎ However, others hold the opposite opinion, thinking such a group would influence parents’ work as they have to pay attention to the massages all the time in case they miss something important. Furthermore, they think students would be too closely monitored.‎ Personally, I’m convinced that only by creating such a group can we behave ourselves both in school and at home.‎
