24、   When Tom was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him doing too much housework. But when Tom was an adult, he had more job satisfaction, a better marriage (婚姻) and was healthier. Most of all, he was far happier.

These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more worthwhile lives than those who had not. "Boys who worked in the home or community gained the ability to do things well and came to feel they were useful members of society," said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery. "And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them."

Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men's mental-health (心理健康) scores with  their boyhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problem.

The relationship between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with different people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been out of job. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.

【1】What do we knew about Tom?

A.He got little love from his parents.

B.He enjoyed his career and marriage.

C.He had few friends in his childhood.

D.He was disliked by others when young.

【2】Vaillant's word, in Paragraph 2 serve as ________.

A.a description of personal values and social values

B.an explanation why some boys grew into happy men

C.an example for parents' expectations of their children

D.an analysis of the relationship between work and ability

【3】Vaillant's team got their findings by ________.

A.studying the men's mental health

B.recording the boys' effort in school

C.comparing different sets of scores

D.deciding the men's problem-solving ability

【4】What does the underlined word "sharp" mean in Paragraph 4?

A.严厉的 B.敏锐的 C.稳定的 D.明显的

25、Every day when I enter the classroom, I will take a look at the wall beside my seat. You will find nothing special about this old wall if you just look at it. But for the students in my class, it is a special wall. Take a look at it, and you will get to know the real feelings and thought of us.

In the middle of the wall, there is a big “VICTORY”. It was written in pencil. I guess it must have been written by someone who got a good mark in an exam.

A little higher above the formulas, there is a poem. It only has two sentences. It reads: All those sweet memories have disappeared. Like tears dropping in the heavy rain.

Oh! It must have been written at the end of the last semester in middle school. Classmates had to leave school and good friends had to part. What a sad poem!

If you look at the wall more carefully, you will find many other interesting things, like a crying face, or a happy face, and other patterns(图案). There are still some patterns and letters that I can’t understand, but they all show the feelings of the students who drew them.

For years, the wall has witnessed(目睹) all the things that have happened in the classroom. I don’t know how it will be next year, two years from now, or even ten years from now. But I hope more smiling faces will be drawn on it.
