27、As birth order is clearly one of the many factors that affect development, we should pay much attention to it. Big brothers and sisters usually develop leadership early in life, mainly because of the responsibilities for younger children given to them by their parents. The danger, experts on family and child psychology report, is that if the older child takes that role to an extreme, he or she can become an overbearing adult.
Studies of nearly 300 people have found that firstborns are usually the most strongly motivated toward achievement. This is mainly the result of parental expectations. Research also suggests that firstborn children generally become more conservative than other children because they receive most of the parental orders and rules. Used to caring for others, they are more likely to move toward such leadership professions as teaching and politics. Less social and flexible because they become accustomed in the very early years to acting alone, they may have difficulty making close friends.
By contrast, the researchers say later children are more likely to be more relaxed and sociable than the eldest child because their parents are more relaxed. However, later children are often less ambitious and may be uncomfortable making decisions for others, and will seek work that fits their needs. This may help explain why younger children tend to favor the creative fields such as music, art, and writing. Later children may make good sellers because persuasion may have been the only tool they had to deal with older children. Younger children tend to remain forever “the baby” enjoyable to be around, but at times too dependent on others.
【1】The underlined word “overbearing” in the first paragraph means________.
A．trying to make other people obey without regard for their ideas or feelings
B．being unable to express what one really feels or to do what one really wants
C．favoring the established order of society and not liking change
D．changing easily to adapt to new needs, conditions or ideas
【2】It can be inferred from the passage that a younger child is more likely to be a good________.
A．librarian
B．doctor
C．writer
D．teacher
【3】Later children may become good sellers because they________.
A．feel uneasy when making decisions for other people
B．are very good at persuading others
C．have great ambition to develop leadership
D．are more relaxed and sociable
【4】What’s the best title of this passage?
A．Which Is Better: Being the Eldest or the Youngest?
B．Birth Order Factor in Marriage
C．The Relation between Birth Order and Job Success
D．Effects of Birth Order on One’s Personality
28、The words “protect animals” appear everywhere in books and on screens, because some animals are even in danger of dying out. But sometimes the reality can be a little different from what people read or watch.
About 300 black bears were killed in Florida, the US, in October, 2015.It’s been the first bear hunt in the state since 1994.Local officers explained that the black bear population（a）had grown to 3,500 and become a menace to local people.In the past two years, bears have hurt at least four people in Florida.
Months ago ,the Swiss government allowed the locals to kill a wolf.This was because the wolf killed 38 sheep, and it was a great loss to some local farmers. Days ago in China, three old men were caught by the police for killing a serow（鬣羚）, a kind of protected animal.They said they killed the animal because it ate the plants they grew.
However, these stories don’t always mean that animal protection stops because of human interests especially when it is related to economic development.A man named Zhou Weisen set up a wild animal base in Guilin, Guangxi. He saved over 170 tigers and about 300 bears.His base also offered jobs to local people.
“There may never be a standard answer to the question of whether we should give more attention to the environment or human development,”said Robert May, a British expert at Oxford University. “But we shouldn’t put either one to one side, as the future is uncertain.”
【1】What does the underlined word “menace”in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Tradition.
B．Threat.
C．Benefit.
D．Relief.
【2】Why did the Swiss government allow the locals to kill the wolf?
A．The wolf killed a serow.
B．The wolf was caught by the police.
C．The wolf ate the plants the farmers grew.
D．The wolf caused economic loss to local farmers.
【3】Why did the author mention Zhou Weisen’s story in paragraph 4?
A．To show that animal protection stops.
B．To prove animal protection is important.
C．To explain protecting animals can bring economic development.
D．To stress that animal protection must give way to human interests.
【4】Which of the following might Robert May agree with?
A．Human interests should be considered first.
B．We should focus on the future rather than the present.
C．Humans can kill animals when their interests are harmed.
D．Keeping the right balance between the environment and human interests is important.
29、 “Regardless of social class, race and age, men say they hate to shop,” says Zukin, City University of New York sociology professor. “Yet when you ask them deeper questions, it turns out that they like to shop. Men generally like to shop for books, music and hardware. But if you ask them about the shopping they do for books or music, they'll say, ‘Well, that's not shopping. That's research.’”
In other words, what men and women call “buying things” and how they approach that task are different.
Women will wander through several 1,000squaremetre stores in search of the perfect party dress. Men will wander through 100 Internet sites in search of the perfect digital camcorder. Women see shopping as a social event. Men see it as a special task or a game to be won.
“Men are frequently shopping to win,” says Ann, a marketing professor at Loyola University of Chicago. “They want to get the best deal. They want to get the best and latest one and if they do that, it makes them happy. When women shop, they're doing it in a way that they want everybody to be very happy,” says Ann. “They're kind of shopping for love.”
“Teenage girls learn to shop from their mums and elder sisters, and they also learn to shop by examining articles in magazines like Seventeen,” Zukin says. “And although men's magazines such as GQ and Esquire have long had shopping articles, it's TV that has the eye of young male shoppers,” say Ann and Zukin.
“Television shows are used by young men in the same way Seventeen or Lucky is used by girls,” says Zukin, “to help make clothing and toiletry choices.”
“Of course, there are men who love to shop and are proud of it,” Ann says. And that is important no matter whether you buy a car or a frying pan. All men love to buy but don't want to get cheated. Ann adds, “There actually are men who are interested, for example, in cooking or shopping or chinaware or things around the home-they become kind of girl magnets. Women like it.”
【1】From the first paragraph we can find that .
A.men like to shop in fact B.men are all dishonest
C.men hate to shop actually D.men are all booklovers
【2】Compared to women, men usually treat shopping .
A.honestly B.frequently C.seriously D.foolishly
【3】As is shown in this passage, teenage girls go shopping .
A.only with their sisters B.often following magazines
C.only with their mums D.often following TV shows
【4】The underlined word “magnets” in the last paragraph means “ “.
A.vegetables that make women beautiful B.magazines that attract young women
C.persons that have a powerful attraction D.tools that can help housewives much
30、“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment. “If you carry on, one day something good will happen. And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that _________ disappointment.
Mother was _________. As I discovered after graduating from college in 1932, I had decided to hunt for a job in radio, then work my way up to sports announcer. I went to Chicago and _________ on the door of every station--but got _________ every time. In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t _________ hiring an inexperienced person. “Go out in the suburbs and find a _________ station that’ll give you a chance,” she said. I turned to Dixon, Illinois.
While there were no radios announcing jobs in Dixon, they had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to _________ its sports department. The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn’t hired. My _________ must have shown. “Everything happens for the best,” my mother reminded me. Dad offered me the car to _________ job. As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?” I was __________ the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling. “What do you say about sports? Do you know anything about __________?” Then he let me stand before a microphone and asked me to broadcast a(n) __________ game. I did a 15-minute football game occasional commentary（实况报道）, and Peter told me I would be __________ Saturday’s game! On my way home, as I have many times, I __________ my mother’s words: If you carry on, one day something good will happen.

31、课本原文填空。
So why has English changed over time?【1】 all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At first the English 【2】 in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was 【3】 more on German than the English we speak at present. Then 【4】 between about AD 800 and 1150, English became 【5】 like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers 【6】the English language and especially its vocabulary. So【7】the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to 【8】too. English began to be spoken in both countries. Finally by the 19th century the language was 【9】.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was Mother's Day and I was shopping at the local supermarket with my son who is five years old, Tenyson. As we were leaving after finishing our shopping, we realized that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and hit her head on the ground badly. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock. Fortunately, a lot of people stopped to help out.
While we were walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very worried about what had happened to the elderly couple. He said to me, “Mom, it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone,” Seeing that there was a flower stall（摊位）at the front of the supermarket, he added, “Why shouldn't we buy the lady a flower? It will make her feel better.” I was amazed that he’d come up with this sweet idea. So we went over and told the flower seller what we wanted. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can't take your money for such a wonderful deed.”
By now medical staff had arrived, and were looking after the injured woman. There we saw the old man was also in great horror, but he tried to comfort his wife and held her hands tightly to encourage her to be strong. We gave the flower to the woman's husband and I told him it was from my son. At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you very much.”He then turned to me, “You have a wonderful son. Happy Mother's Day to you.”
The man bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Regardless of being badly hurt, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile. And my son bent down his body to the injured lady and tenderly said, “Happy Mother's Day to you, too.”
