21、On her first day of school, a six-year-old girl stands outside, fearfully clinging to her mother’s leg. 【1】 As the girl learns she will be separated from her parents to enter a new building filled with new people, she begins to cry. During the first couple of weeks in her new classroom, the girl does not volunteer to speak when her teacher asks the class questions. At break, she stands by a wall, watching the other children running around the playground. 【2】 She can be heard laughing and chatting, louder and braver than at school. As the school environment becomes more familiar, her behaviours there will more closely resemble her behaviours at home. This first-grader is shy.
【3】 Although definitions vary, shyness is most often characterised by cautiousness or fear in new social situations. In many places, especially in North America, sociability and liveliness are positively valued, and children are encouraged to speak up in different contexts, connect with their peers and trust their teachers.
It’s been estimated however, that as many as 10 to 15 percent of children consistently exhibit shyness, and we know that the tendency to display fear and avoidance in the presence of unfamiliarity is found across species, across cultures and across generations. The ubiquity (无处不在) of shyness suggests that it likely possesses some adaptive functions. 【4】
Shy children might be more likely to detect social threats in their environment compared with non-shy children. 【5】 For example, a shy child might more readily notice an unkind peer or bully. She might not immediately offer personal information about herself and engage in careful decision-making about whether to become friends with the person. These factors might help shield shy children from social conflict and negative social evaluations.
A．They tend to look before they leap.
B．When she gets home, though, her behaviour is different.
C．Childhood shyness is often regarded as a negative quality.
D．Her teacher works with her parents to get the child into the school.
E．She stops crying only when she notices that others are watching her.
F．Shyness is not a sentence for a lonely or difficult life in and of itself.
G．Indeed, there is evidence that shyness is not always a disadvantage or a problem.
22、Are GM（转基因的) foods safe for people? Can they help solve the poverty problem? They have been the subjects of a hot debate.
This debate is related to increasing challenges from rising climatic change, population growth, urbanization（城镇化), and natural resource consumption. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, food production needs to increase by 60 percent by 2050 in order to feed 9 billion people. Scientists and policymakers are searching for effective ways to gain nutritious food, for today and future. Unlike previous agricultural methods (such as the Green Revolution), GM crops are to fight food safety and poverty challenges.
The great expansion of GM crop varieties over the last two decades can be seen easily. The total area devoted to GM crops has increased 100 times from 1.7 million hectares in 1996 to 170 million hectares in 2012. Developing countries now grow more GM crops than developed countries (in terms of area), largely driven by Brazil’s rapid adoption of GM crops. China is home to about 4 percent of the total global area devoted to GM crops. Beans, corn, and cotton are main global GM crops, while China’s focus is on cotton, papaya, and poplar.
Recently, a scientific study shows that GM crops are safe for people and the environment. According to a 2010 report on the safety of GM crops by the EU, “the main conclusion to be drawn from the efforts of more than 130 research projects, covering a period of more than 25 years of research, and involving more than 500 research groups, is that biology methods, are not more risky than traditional planting technologies, for example.” Other international and national scientific bodies, such as the World Health Organization, have reached the same conclusion.
【1】 Nowadays, people are developing GM foods mainly to fight against______.
A. urbanization
B. population growth
C. rising climatic change
D. natural resource consumption
【2】 As for GM crops, what do people mainly focus on ?
A. Food production. B. Food nutrition.
C. Food safety. D. Food variety.
【3】 What does Paragraph 3 talk about?
A. More GM crops in developing countries.
B. Less GM crops in developed countries.
C. Rapid adoption of GM crops in Brazil.
D. The expansion of GM crop varieties of the world.
【4】 From a recent scientific study, we can infer that______.
A. traditional planting technologies are more risky
B. the safety of GM crops has been proved in many ways
C. the safety of GM crops was reported by the EU in 2010
D. present GM crops are safe for people and the environment
【5】 What’s the writer’s attitude towards GM crops?
A. Supportive. B. Opposed.
C. Unknown. D. Indifferent.

24、North Americans value independence, and Europeans value togetherness. I never fully understood that stereotype (陈规，旧习) until two months ago, when I left Canada for a 4-month period in a lab in France. On my first day, Pierre, a Ph. D. student, tapped me on my shoulder and asked, “Coffee？” I nodded and followed him to the common room, where other graduates were filling in. I sat there, cautiously sipping the bitter liquid and trying hard not to reveal my uncultured taste, while lab chatter filled the air.
Coffee breaks are a ceremonial part of lab culture here. The chatter sometimes turns to serious scientific topics. But mostly, the meetups offer a chance to wind down, to share stories about life inside and outside the lab and to sympathize with people who understand what you're going through.
The lighthearted atmosphere and sense of community is a welcome contrast to my life in Canada, where I spent most of my workdays in isolation. I went into the lab each morning with set goals for my day. At lunch, I'd keep my eyes glued to my computer while I fed forkfuls of salad into my mouth, trying to power through my todo list. For 9 months, I struggled to figure out why I couldn't exactly copy the results of another study. I didn't want to trouble my advisor too much. I was also hesitant to ask my labmates for help.
How much we were missing! Researchers need community because good ideas don't just come from reading literature and thinking deep thoughts. It's helpful to bounce ideas off others, and, to have a site to share the daytoday ups and downs of life.
Would coffee breaks have solved all my problems? Probably not. But I think sharing ideas with my peers would have helped solve my research dilemma. My time in France has taught me that it's important to create space for organic conversations about lab life. A scientist can feel isolated, but it's not necessarily so when you're connected to a supportive community.

A．calm down .
B．go down.
C．put down .
D．break down.
【3】What was the author's life like back in Canada?
A．Comfortable and fulfilled.
B．Busy and lonely.
C．Tense but satisfactory.
D．Boring but healthy.
【4】Why does the author write this passage?
A．To introduce the coffee break in Europe.
B．To explain the difference between cultures.
C．To convey the importance of a supportive circle.
D．To recall his personal experience in France.
