26、 Of all the animals on Earth, none are so driven to explore as humans. Other animals will go in search of food or water. But humans can be encouraged by the possibility of discovery. So what is it that caused us to spread out across the world 60, 000 years ago, instead of just staying in Africa?
Perhaps it’s in our DNA. In 1999, Dr. Chuansheng Chen led a team of scientists who were studying a gene (基因) known as DRD4-7R. This gene is found in about 20% of all humans. It’s been connected with higher rates of risk-taking, exploration, and interest in new ideas. Dr. Chen found that DRD4-7R is more common in societies that move around a lot than those who don’t. For example, studies in Africa show that the gene is much more common in nomadic (游牧的) tribes than in tribes that prefer to stay in one place. Several other researchers have studied this topic and found additional evidence to support Dr. Chen’s research.
But can a single gene be a drive for something as complex as the need to explore? Dr. Kenneth Kidd doesn’t think so. He thinks DRD4-7R might increase curiosity, but other important sets of genes also give us great minds and skilled hands. He believes that not just one gene, but groups of genes work together to create complex behaviors like exploration.
The context we live in also plays a role in our need to explore. For example, during the European Age of Exploration, explorers became rich and famous for their discoveries. This drove others to try to increase their wealth through exploration. In this case, their exploration was more likely driven by money than by genes.
Maybe the need to explore comes from something inside us, such as the DRD4-7R gene. Or maybe it has more to do with what’s happening in the world around us. Maybe it’s both. Whatever the reason, it seems we (or at least some of us) will keep exploring the mountains, the sea, the stars, and beyond, because that’s just what humans do.
【1】What did Dr. Chen find about the DRD4-7R gene?
A．It has more influence on Africans.
B．It could be found in most humans.
C．It prevents people in tribes from exploring.
D．It may be more common in people who like taking risks.
【2】What does Dr. Kenneth Kidd think of the DRD4-7R gene?
A．It is not the only gene to encourage people to explore.
B．It can drive people to have strange behaviors.
C．It is more important than other genes.
D．It cannot be found in animals.
【3】What did the example of the European Age of Exploration show?
A．The purpose of exploring.
B．The popularity of exploring.
C．The importance of the context.
D．The big changes of the context.
【4】Which of the following shows the organization of the text?(P=Paragraph)

27、More than 30,000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (复活节滚彩蛋). President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs. The theme of the day was “Hop Into Healthy, Swing Into Shape.” It was part of the First Lady’s “Let’s Move!” program to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率) among American kids. Mrs. Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal to get children to eat right and keep moving.
“We are working to make sure that kids born today grow up healthy, learn how to have balanced meals, and get more physical activity into their lives,” she said.
Mrs. Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that “exercise isn’t just hard work, it’s play. If you’re running around with your dog, you’re getting exercise. If you walk up the stairs, that’s exercise. But if you’re sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game, you’re not exercising.”
The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time, having a special snack, like chocolate, will not hurt. “And if you are active, you can splurge (挥霍) a little more,” she said. Mrs. Obama’s favorite “splurge food” is French fries. But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day. She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga.
“A lot of kids look up to athletes, and I think it’s important for athletes to share their good habits,” Mrs. Obama said. “Kids aren’t just going to wake up and be LeBron James. He’s practicing and eating right and working out and training. Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them — they can say to kids, ‘If you really want to be like me, then you really do need to eat your vegetables.’”

A. help kids keep healthy

【3】“Splurge food” is allowed to be eaten when _____.
A. you don’t hurt yourself
B. you have a special snack
C. you never eat French fries
D. you eat right and stay active
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. All kids want to be LeBron James.
B. It is very easy to form good habits.
C. Athletes can set a good example for kids.
D. Kids like the messages the athletes give them.
【5】In which part of a newspaper will the text most probably appear?

28、Editor: Today our topic is part-time job. Are they good for school children or not?
Headmaster: Certainly not. Children have got two full-time jobs already: growing up and going to school. Part-time jobs make them so tired that they fall asleep in class.
Mrs. White: I agree. I know school hours are short, but there’s homework as well, and children need a lot of sleep.
Mr. White: Young children, perhaps some boys, stay at school until they’re eighteen or nineteen. A part-time job can’t harm them. In fact, it’s good for them. They earn their pocket money instead of asking their parents for it. And they see something of the world outside school.
Businessman: You’re quite right. Boys learn a lot from a part-time job. And we mustn’t forget that some families need the extra money. If the pupils didn’t take part-time jobs, they couldn’t stay at school.
Editor: Well, we have got two for, and two against. What do our readers think?
【1】Who have the same opinion?
A. Headmaster and Mrs. White.
B. Editor and Mr. White .
C. Mr. and Mrs. White.
D. Businessman and Headmaster.
【2】Mrs. White thinks the young children maybe ________.
A. need to stay at school until they are eighteen or nineteen

D. need to have a lot of sleep
【3】 What does the editor think of part-time jobs?
A. They can help students from poor families.
B. They are good for school children.
C. They cannot harm school children.
D. We are not told.
29、My elder brother Steve, in the absence of my father who died when I was six, gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult.
For instance, Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to apologize to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball. I also learned from Steve that personal property(财产) is a sacred thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I’d hate to lose to someone else the small dog my father carved from a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on the shoulder. Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind.
When I was twelve, I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my skill, I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is when it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.
【1】What is the main subject of the passage?
A. The relationship between mark and Steve.
B. The important lesson Mark learned in school
C. Steve’s important role in mark’s growing process.
D. Mark and Steve’s respect for living things.
【2】 In the story about the pen, which of the following lessons did Steve teach his brother?
A. Respect for personal property.
B. Respect for life.
C. Sympathy for people with problems.
D. The value of honesty.
【3】 According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?
A. Respect for living things.
B. Responsibility for one’s actions.
C. The value of the honesty.
D. Care for the property of others.
