25、
Are you afraid of going to the dentist (牙医)? If so, you’re not alone.
These fears could just be in our heads, however. According to a recent survey by Martin Tickle, a professor at Manchester University in the UK, the pain isn’t felt most of the time in dental surgeries (牙科手术). In fact, among the 451 interviewed patients, 75 ％ reported no pain at all during their visits, including situations when they had their teeth pulled out.
Could it be the sound of the drill (钻头) then?
“I found that the sound of drilling can evoke deep worry in dental patients. Actually they don’t have any pain.”Hiroyuki Karibe, a scientist at Nippon Dental University in Tokyo, told the Guardian.
To find the reason why a drill might bring on a racing heart, Karibe divided the volunteers into low-fear and high-fear groups based on how much they feared a trip to the dentist. Volunteers were played the sound of a drill while their brain activities were watched by a machine.
What Karibe found in the low-fear group was increased activity in the areas of the brain relative to auditory processing (听觉处理), which means, for these people, the sound of dental drills is no different from other sounds.
In the high-fear group, however, the brain area that was activated (激活) was different. It was the area that carries out a number of duties, including learning, feelings and, most importantly, memory. This means that these volunteers not only heard the sound, but they remembered it—they made connections between the sound of a drill and the worry it produced in the past, causing their worry to return.
Understanding how brains reply to the sounds of dentists’ drills could help scientists find ways to make patients more relaxed, according to Karibe, because patients who worry about going to the dentist might keep putting off their visits. But the best way is to keep your teeth healthy.
【1】How does the writer explain that the pain isn’t felt most of the time in dental surgeries?
A．By showing facts with numbers.
B．By asking questions one by one.
C．By giving examples group by group.
D．By comparing results of patients.
【2】According to the fourth paragraph, what does the word “evoke” mean in Chinese?
A．减轻
B．引起
C．显示
D．阻止
【3】Which of the following is Not True?
A．The researcher used machines to check volunteers’ brain activities.
B．The sound of the drills is the same as other sounds for the low-fear group.
C．The sound of drilling has nothing to do with the feeling of pain.
D．Different brain areas were activated by the sound of drilling.
【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．How the study might be useful.
B．Some new ways to treat teeth.
C．The proper way to treat dental patients.
D．The importance of keeping our teeth healthy.
26、For as long as we can remember, one of the most popular ways parents use to punish their children has been the “time out”.
It seems that it is a good idea: the child sits on his own to reflect on what he has done. Then, when the time is up, he will apologize and learn from the mistake.
However, just because it’s something that’s been done for years, that doesn’t mean it is the right thing to do. In fact, very often, children don’t sit nicely and think about what they’ve done. Instead, they need to be told a few (or many) times to go back to their places and stay quiet. They’re not reflecting on why they are in the “time out” at all. More likely than not, they’re probably just really angry, and so are the parents. In the end, both the parents and the children make each other unhappy, or even angry.
What can parents do to change this situation? You may have already heard of things like peaceful parenting and gentle parenting. These focus on the relationship between parent and child through building trust and love. So, instead of starting a “time out”, try something called “time in”. A “time in” needs both parent and child to stay close until both get calm. After that, the parent and child can discuss what happened and solve the problem together. If the child can make changes, everyone can then move on.
As we all know, punishment and violence seldom work and will never teach the children what the right way to act is. A “time in” can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes. Kids learn how to build their emotional and social skills through difficult situations. So, instead of punishing them for acting their age, we can use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning.
A “time in” may take more time, but it does work.
【1】During a “time out”, a child is told to ________.
A．stay outside
B．sit alone and reflect
C．make a promise
D．return to school
【2】In the writer’s opinion, a “time out” ________.
A．doesn’t always work
B．is becoming more popular
C．should be parents’ first choice
D．takes too much time
【3】When a child has done something wrong, the writer suggests that ________.
A．both teachers and parents discuss how to solve the problem
B．the child stays at home and reflects until he never makes mistakes
C．the child says sorry to his or her parents and learns from mistakes
D．parents try something called “time in”instead of “time out”
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A．“Time out” or “time in”?
B．Learn from mistakes!
C．Why not “time in”?
D．No violence at home!
27、There is a festival in China that has three names. It’s known as the Chongyang Festival. Also, it is called the Double Ninth Festival because it falls on the ninth day of the ninth month of the Chinese lunar calendar (阴历). Finally it has been the Senior’s Day (老人节) since 1989. This year, it fell on Oct.23rd.
There are many traditions for this festival. In the past, people climbed mountains, drank chrysanthemum (菊花) wine, and wore a plant called zhuyu to celebrate it. Climbing mountains in autumn brings people close to the nature and it’s good for health. Both chrysanthemum and zhuyu are also clean plants and they can clean houses and make people healthy.
In China, nine has the similar pronunciation with the word “forever”, meaning long life. So the Chinese government set the day as the Senior’s Day in 1989—a day to respect the old. Many communities organize autumn trips for old people. Young people bring elders to the countryside to enjoy the nature. They also give them gifts.
In China, it is a tradition to respect old people. In the past, if young people didn’t take good care of their parents, they would be seriously punished. Now we have The 24 Filial Exemplars (《新二十四孝》). It includes 24 things we should do for elders, such as calling them up every week and going to visit them more often. On this three-named festival, remember to show your love to your elders.

28、 I can’t remember many students, even their names, though I 【1】 (work) in the school for thirty years. But I still will never forget a girl student sitting at the back of the classroom. Having failed the college entrance (进入) exams and changed school two times. Every time I stepped into the classroom, I could find her sitting at the desk, staring into textbook and exercises.
Life 【2】(be)harder for senior students now. Every time when the scores 【3】 (tell), she would be sad—her score wouldn’t be the first or second but last. Dark clouds always flashed in her eyes. When I invited her to the teacher’ office, we never talked about studies or scores but I would make some jokes instead.
The exam results finally came out and she did pass! Since then she had never been heard from again.Two days before the Spring Festival Eve, I 【4】 (shop) in a supermarket at that time. Suddenly an excited voice came into my ear: “Hello, Mr. Deng.” I looked up and there she stood. From her happy face, I 【5】 (see) she was busy and happy. “Mr Deng, I am in the second year of my college. It is two years since I 【6】 (leave) the middle school. You helped me get through my darkest time. Thank you.”
In that moment, I realized it is important 【7】 (give) a bit of care to those in need every day.

A man heard it and ________ me just before I walked off. He asked me, “Are you leaving your brother here to find the shoe?
