24、If you go shopping in any toy store, you can see clearly the different games and toys for boys and girls: there are a lot of pink toys on one side of the store for girls; and dark-colored cars, guns, and soldiers for boys. Some big stores with toys may even have a pink floor for girls and a blue floor for boys. In fact, it is difficult to buy a toy for a girl that is not pink.
Some people think that too much pink is bad for girls. Sue Palmer, writer of Toxic Childhood, is very worried that most girls over the age of three are crazy about the color. According to some scientists, this happens for two reasons. Firstly, most companies offer too many products in pink. Also, many parents think their little daughter looks cute in pink. Sue Palmer says that girls at this age cannot make proper decisions by themselves, but the pink can affect (影响) the choices and the decisions they will make in the future.
Some parents are worried too—for example, Vanessa Holburn, thirty-two, who has two girls under the age of four. Their bedrooms are a sea of pink and Vanessa is not happy. “Pink says that you are soft and gentle. Blue says that you are strong and powerful. I want my daughters to be strong and powerful. I’m worried that pink will not help them with that,” she says.
But not everyone thinks there’s something wrong with pink. Grayson Turner is a father of three girls and he isn’t worried at all. “People forget that things change all the time,” he says. “My girls used to love pink when they were little, but as they get older, they change.” Turner explains that his twelve-year-old daughter never wears pink clothes anymore. “This love of pink is just a fashion and all fashions change,” he adds. “It’s only since the 1940s that people have started dressing girls in pink—before that it was a color for boys.”
【1】Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

B.
C.
D.
【2】The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 means ________.
A.being soft and gentle
B.being strong and powerful

【3】According to Grayson Turner, ________.
A.parents needn’t worry about pink toys
B.all little kids love the color pink
C.pink has always been a color for girls
D.his girls now prefer the color blue
【4】The purpose of this passage is to ________.
A.explain why girls are crazy about the color pink
B.make parents less worried about the color pink
C.encourage girls to give up playing with pink toys
D.show people’s different opinions about the color pink
25、 When I was thirteen years old, I became very interested in shopping. After a while being just a buyer, I wanted to sell something. I had many things around the house from my childhood that I no longer needed. I knew, with the help of my father, I could make money. So far months and months I enjoyed myself by selling things on my dad's account(账户).
On December 9, 2017, I opened my own account and began to start my own business. Things were going great and then I realized that selling things around house wasn't making me, the kind of money that I wanted to make, so I decided to turn my business into a resale shop. I went around to the garage sale(旧货出售处)and bought items at low prices and sold them at higher prices.
Last November, I went to a garage sale that was a little bit different. A single lady had many nice items that I knew I would sell quickly. I went up to her and started a conversation with her. Through the conversation, I knew she was jobless at the moment and needed money to support her family. I decided to sell any of her things for her to help her out. She looked at me for a moment and then broke into tears. I took away some of her things and over the next month I made over $1,500 for her! She was so thankful for all of my help.
I have never felt so happy to help someone in my life. I felt as if I had made a difference in this world and that my skills could be used to help someone who would really need it.
【1】At first, _________ helped her make money by selling things.

27、Researchers found how parents’ communication styles help their young children to develop language skills. Daniel Yurovsky, professor in psychology at Carnegie Mellon University and his team developed a method to experimentally evaluate how parents use what they know about their children’s language when they talk to them.They found that parents have extremely exact models of their children’s language knowledge, and use these models to tune (调正) the language they use when speaking to them.
“We have known for years that parents talk to children more differently than to other adults in a lot of ways. For example, simplifying their speech, repeating words and stretching out vowel sounds.” said Yurovsky. “That helps young kids get a toehold into language, but whether parents change the way they talk as children are learning language, gives children language input that is ‘just right’ for learning the next thing.”
Yurovsky and his team continued to study to understand exactly how parents tune their interactions to match their child’s speech development. The team developed a game where parents helped their children to pick a specific animal from a set of three. Half of the animals in the matching game were animals that children typically learn before age 2, like cat and cow. And the other half were animals that are typically learned later such as peacock and leopard. The researchers asked 41 child-adult pairs to play the game. They measured the differences in how parents talked about animals they thought their children knew and those they thought their children did not know.
They found parents had an unbelievable exact knowledge of their child’s language because they had watched them grow and learn. These results showed that parents leveraged (利用) their knowledge of their children’s language development to fine-tune the information they provided.
“We found that parents not only used what they already knew about their children’s language knowledge before the study, but also that if they found out they were wrong—their child didn’t actually know ‘leopard’, for example, they changed the way they talked about that animal the next time around.” said Yurovsky. “Right now we train language models by giving them all of the language data we can get our hands on all at once. But we might do better if we could give them the right data at the right time, keeping it at just the right level that they are ready for.” Yurovsky added.
【1】Why do parents talk to children differently than to other adults?
A.To reduce kids’ fear to face difficulties.
B.To help develop their kids’ languages.
C.To make their talks understood.
D.To call for their kids’ attention.
【2】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The ways parents tune to match their child’s speech.
B.The game that helps children to pick a specific animal.
C.The experiment to find out exact talking ways parents use.
D.The methods children and parents use to talk with each other.
【3】According to the writer, language trainers or teachers should ________.
A.explain the word ‘leopard’ in another way
B.leverage children’s knowledge to fit theirs
C.offer language information when it’s proper
D.have lots of children’s language knowledge
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.How Young Children Start to Learn Skills from Their Parents.
B.How Parent’s Ways of Talking Benefit Kids’ Language Skills.
C.Why Communication Styles Help Develop Children’s Learning.
