27、   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?

28、   Lightning strike has been confirmed as the reason for the forest fire that killed 27 firemen and 3 local helpers in Southwest China’s Sichuan Province. The forest fire b【1】out on March 30th on top of a remote mountain. A huge fireball was formed in a moment. Changing winds trapped the firemen and the helpers. Most of the d【2】were in their 20s, and at least two were teenagers.

Forest fires are c【3】 in  spring,  so  the  Chinese  government  has  warned several regions that are experiencing high temperatures, strong winds and dry w【4】 The  development  of  technology in  recent  years  should  have  p【5】 them with better safety protection than before, but the fire has showed that there is still a long way to go to make our firefighting system modern.

As citizens, what can we do to help s【6】forest fires? Here are some tips. First, form a small group or join a local team that cleans falling l【7】 and litter in thick forests. Second, don’t smoke in the forest. Ask your parents and friends to put out their cigarette ends (烟头) before e【8】the forest. Next, park your cars away from the trees and dry areas of the forest. Any fuel leakage (燃油泄漏) from cars can help start a fire. Then, never start a campfire when camping in a forest. Also a【9】using candles and matches inside your tent. Last, do not use fireworks in or near a forest.  Fires  can s【10】very quickly if sparks ( 火 花 ) from fireworks reach dry objects in the forest.
