I find it humorous sometimes that even the most ordinary incidents can have an impact on our awareness.
My wife, daughter, and I moved into our home nine years ago and we spent a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking like it does today. We live on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally built rock wall. The front of the house though is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.
We did the best we could with what we had to work with and called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover flowers or plants, Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area.
Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little plant that I could not immediately identify. I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn’t either. We decided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.
Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower. It had a tall skinny stalk (茎) and only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.
That’s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability to do the same thing. We believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same food and nutrition as well.
Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go under or around your big obstacle(障碍) in order to reach your desires.
24. We can know from the second paragraph that _________.
A. the author finished building his home hurriedly.
B. it took the author 9 years to make the yard beautiful.
C. the rock walls were made at the same time.
D. the author’s family have lived there for a long time.
25. Why did the author and his wife decide to let the tiny little plant grow?
A. Because they were interested in every little plant.
B. Because they wanted to discover what it was.
C. Because they wanted to use it to make the yard colorful.
D. Because they were touched by its strong will.
26. What does the underlined phrase “baby it along” mean?
A. make shelter for it B. leave it alone
C. take good care of it D. put it elsewhere
27. What can be inferred from this passage?
A. Human beings are able to remove obstacles.
B. The universal truth made the Sunflower survive.
C. A big rock blocked out the sunlight of the Sunflower.
D. We can achieve success as long as we are self-confident.
C
Educating girls quite possibly outputs a higher rate of return than any other investment (投资) available in the developing world. Women’s education may be an unusual field for economists, but raising women’s contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social problem. And economics, with its emphasis on motivation, provides an explanation for why so many girls can’t receive education.
Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else’s family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school — the prediction becomes self-fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious circle (恶性循环) of lack of attention.
An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a good circle.
Few will disagree with it that educating women has great social benefits. But it has huge economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each extra year of schooling. Such big returns
are impressive by the standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has an important influence on health practices, including family planning.
28. The author argues that educating girls in developing countries is ________.
A. troublesome B. rewarding C. labor-saving D. expensive
29. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Girls will really make a less economic contribution to the family.
B. Girls will be capable of realizing their own dreams.
C. Girls will eventually receive the same education as boys.
D. Girls will be increasingly dissatisfied with their life at home.
30. The author believes that a vicious circle can turn into a good one when ________.
A. women care more about education
B. girls can gain equal access to education
C. a family has fewer but healthier children
D. parents can afford their daughters’ education
31. The passage mainly discusses ________.
A. unequal treatment of boys and girls in developing countries
B. the potential earning power of well-educated women
C. the major contributions of educated women to society
D. the economic and social benefits of educating women
D
Love to sink into your chairs and relax when you get to school? Then you will not be happy to hear that schools all over the world are seriously considering exchanging traditional desks for ones with no seats at all — Yes, that means you will be encouraged to stand through those already too long math and science lessons! Why would anyone even think of putting kids to such cruelty? Experts say it improves their health and helps fight obesity. While that may seem a little far-fetched (牵强的), the officials at the few schools around the world seem to agree.
Among them are educators from the College Station Independent School District in Texas, who recently completed a week-long experiment involving 480 students across three elementary schools. The 374 kids that agreed to participate in the study were provided a device that helped record step
count and calorie consumption over the entire period.
All 25 teachers involved in the study reported that students appeared to be more alert and concentrate better, when allowed to stand. The one thing that did surprise the researchers was that younger kids were more willing to stay standing than kids in higher grades. They believe this may have something to do with the fact that after years of being asked to “sit still”, older kids have a harder time adjusting to this unexpected freedom.
American schools are not the only ones reporting success with stand-up desks. Four Catholic schools in Perth, Australia, which have been testing them since October 2013, have seen similar results. In May 2014, Grove House Primary School in Bradford, West Yorkshire, became Europe’s first test one, with a seven-week trial that involved the use of desks made by Ergotron in their fifth-grade classrooms. While official results are not out yet, early reactions from both teachers and students, have been extremely encouraging.
The findings of these studies and others done previously, all seem to mean that allowing kids to move around in classrooms is a win-win for students and teachers — it helps kids get healthier and provides educators with a more engaged audience.
32. According to the first paragraph, what may make the students at school unhappy is that _____.
A. they have to exchange desks with each other
B. they have to exchange traditional desks for ones with no seats
C. there are no seats for them to sit in class
D. the officials show no sympathy to them at all
33. According to the teachers, older students may not like stand-up desks because _____.
A. they are cleverer than younger students
B. they are easily tired of standing long
C. they have formed the habit of sitting
D. they do badly in class while standing
34. What is most likely to be the result of the seven-week trial?
A. The standing desks can’t be used at all.
B. It is good for students to use stand-up desks.
C. More tests should be done in other schools.
D. The students are different in personality.
35. Why do the teachers like the standing desks?
A. Because the educators can draw the students’ attention.
B. Because the teachers can keep the students healthy.
C. Because the students can have a walk in the classroom.
D. Because the standing desks can keep the students concentrated.

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 aim of going on holiday is to find relaxation and enjoyment, but when your destination is crowded with noisy masses of tourists, you might wonder why you ever left home. 36 . Here are several tips for avoiding crowds while on vacation.
Arrive Early Or Late
If you forget to purchase tickets in advance, do the next best thing---show up early. 37
This is especially useful for tourist sites that are over-run with people by mid-day. Some experienced travelers prefer to do the opposite and show up late in the day. Both can help you escape the crowded time.
Talk To People
Generally speaking, it’s the job of the concierges(服务处人员) in your hotel or the clerks in the tourist office to know their city’s attractions. Have a friendly chat with these expert to get the best time to visit popular sites. 38 Often they know the secrets of touring in demand places when they’re not teaming with people.
Choose Sites Off The Beaten Path
39 . For example, many Paris’ hidden side streets feature beautiful architecture, parks and cafes. You’ll avoid crowds, and experience the country’s culture like a local, not a tourist.
Adjust Your Meal Times
Popular restaurants will always have a long wait at usual dinner times. And if you come across theater fans in New York, London or Toronto, you’ll have to wait for more than an hour. 40
A You’ll get a guided tour and beat the rush to have a good time.
B.Crowds tend to be thinner when an attraction throws open its doors.
C.Eat a bit early or a little later and you’ll beat both the crowds and your hunger.
D.Don’t let the headache of dealing with noisy travelers ruin your trip.
E.To slip away from the crowd, choose places that people tend to ignore.
F.You never know---you may just love it and turn it into an annual vacation.
G.It’s also extremely helpful to talk to locals and even fellow travelers.
