A
MANY of us enjoy doing it: you turn on the camera on your mobile phone and hold it at a high angle (角度), making your eyes look bigger and your cheekbones more marked out. You turn to your best side and click.
There it is – your selfie.
Over the past year, ―selfie‖ has beco me a well-known term across the globe. This August the Oxford dictionary added the word to their online dictionary and defined it as: ―A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website.‖
Today it‘s not difficult to find social networking pages full of photos people have taken of themselves and their friends. And selfie culture has become especially related to young people. As many as 91 percent of teenagers have posted photos of themselves online, according to a recent survey by the US Pew Research Center.
So what are the reasons for the rise of selfie culture?
―The cult (狂热) of the selfie celebrates regular people,‖ Pamela Rutledge, a professor at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology, told Vogue magazine. ―There are many more photographs available now of real people than models.‖
Posting selfies also allows you to control your image online. ―I like having the power to choose how I look, even if I‘m making a funny face,‖ Sam antha Barks, 19, a high school student in the US, told V ogue.
In addition to self-expression and documentation (记录), selfies ―allow for an close friendship for long-distance friends, because you can see each other‘s faces every day‖, wrote Casey Miller at The Huffington Post.
But US psychologist Jill Weber is concern ed that selfies might lead to social problems. ―There‘s a danger that your self-esteem (自尊心) may start to be tied to the comments and ?likes‘ you get when you post a selfie, and they aren‘t based on who you are –they‘re based on what you look like,‖ Weber told V ogue. ―When you get nothing or a negative response, your confidence can plummet.‖
56. The first paragraph is intended to _________.
A. explain why selfie is popular
B. describe how to make selfie
C. show the importance of selfie
D. introduce the topic of selfie
57. How many reasons for the rise of selfie culture are mentioned in the passage?
A. Two
B. Three
C. Four
D. Five
58. What is Jill Weber‘s opinion about selfies?
A. C omments on selfie are based on who you are.
B. S elfies have more disadvantages than advantages.
C. O thers‘ response to selfies might affect one‘s self-esteem.
D. S elfies shouldn‘t be encouraged f or they lead to social problems.
59. The underlined word ―plummet‖ in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to __________.
A. go down
B. calm down
C. pick up
D. build up
B
―I didn‘t hear them call my name,‖ explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2013. ―Are you ready?‖ is what she heard. Then she said, ―I shook my head no, and then they said ?yes‘ and it was announced again."
It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana—she was still on cloud nine.
―I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen.‖ Present in the audience(观众)that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher. Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete. ―She‘s always been my role model.I‘ve danced with her since I was six. She‘s been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I‘ve learned to get over bad life‘s experiences and learned how to move on because of her.‖
One of those bad life‘s experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the rough days. She said, ―I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...‖
As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.
When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any adv ice for our readers, she said, ―Don‘t let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself.‖
60. The underlined words ―on cloud nine‖ in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by ________.
A. frightened
B. troubled
C. very happy
D. very angry
61. Shelley takes her dance teacher as a role model mainly because she is _______.
A. determined
B. friendly
C. strict
D. experienced
62. What did Shelley often do after she became Miss Louisiana Teen?
A. She visited drunken drivers.
B. She gave dance performance.
C. She made speeches on safe driving.
D. She helped other teens with their studies.
63. What suggestion does Shelley give to the teens?

C. Go easy on yourself and others.
D. Have a good role model.
C
Boys at the top of the pecking order(长幼次序) either by birth or because their older brothers died score higher on IQ tests than their younger brothers.
Norwegian researchers now report that it‘s a matter of what they call social rank in the family that gives the first born the highest scores or, if the first born had died young, the next oldest.
Kristensen and Bjerkedal studied the IQ test results of 241,310 Norwegian men drafted(征兵) into the armed forces between 1967 and 1976. All were aged 18 or 19 at the time.
The average IQ of first-born men was 103.2, they found second-born men averaged 101.2, but second-born men whose older brother died young scored 102.9. And for third-borns, the average was 100.0. But if both older brothers died young，the third-born score rose to 102.6.
The findings provide ―evidence that the relation between birth order and IQ score is dependent on the social rank in the family and not birth order as such.‖ they concluded
It‘s an issue that has been hotly discussed since at least 1874,when Sir Francis Galton reported that men in noticeable positions tended to be firstborns more often than would have been statistically (统计) expected.
Since then, several studies have reported higher intelligence scores for firstborns, while other analyses have questioned those findings and the methods of those reports.
―These two researchers prove that how study participants(参与者) were raised, not how they were born, is what actually influences their IQs,‖ said Sulloway, an American professor, who was not part of the research team.
―The elder child pulls ahead,‖ he said, ―perhaps as a result of learning gained through the process of tutoring younger brothers and sisters‖.
―The older child benefits by having to organize and express its thoughts to tutor youngsters‖, he said, ―while the later born children may have no one to tutor.‖
64. According to Norwegain researchers‘finding, which of the following is linked to boys‘IQ?
A. Birth order
B. Position in the family
C. Par ents‘ social rank
D. Educational experience
65. What does the sentence ―It‘s an issue that has been hotly discussed‖underlined in Paragraph 6 mean?
A. Many people take interest in IQ study.
B. IQ study has gone further and further.
C. Many people do research on boys‘ IQ.
D. Opinions are divided on the conclusion.
66. According to Kristensen and Bjerkedal‘s test results, parents can make youngsters smarter by ________.
A. treating them as the oldest child
B. teaching them as the oldest child
C. talking to them as much as possible
D. encouraging them to express thoughts
D

Relax. He is the same little boy you loved yesterday. I smiled trying to hold back the tears. ―No, he isn‘t. Yesterday I dreamed he would be an astronaut. Today I am hoping he will learn to talk.‖
It was like some sort of cosmic joke. I could still recall the day that determined my fate. It was October in Ottawa and the summer breezes had given way to the autumn rainfall of leaves. The snow would begin soon. The crispness (清爽) of coming frost was in the air. My casually mentioning Wyatt‘s behavior to Dr. Martin aroused his worries. He started asking me questions about Wyatt‘s activities speech pattern and emotions. I still see clearly in my mind the cleanness of the room and all its belongings when the doctor turned to me and said, ―He almost sounds autistic (自闭) .‖
I couldn‘t face that picture in my mind. I had to run to get away from this all too painful place that was reminding me of what was to be my child‘s life-being strange.
I could not remember how many times I told myself, ―This is normal. He is a little boy who is not talking yet,‖ when my asking questions met with his blank-eyed response in a restaurant; how many times I would tell myself, ―He loves to play on his own for hours at a time and he never gets into trouble,‖ when Wyatt was playing games that no one else could imagine, let alone join in while other boys in the park were playing together or in small groups played around a sand pail(桶) or toy truck. My life was changing direction. So was Wyatt‘s.
I started to hide Wyatt from my friends and neighbor especially from a good friend. It was too painful to let others know about my boy acting strange.
It was a Thursday afternoon and I found one half of a great pair of kitchen scissors was missing. They were unbelievably sharp and could be taken apart so they could be washed or the blades (刀片) sharpened. I knew Wyatt had taken the missing blade.
―Wyatt,‖ I began as patiently as I could, ―Do you see this?‖ I held up the blade. ―Do you know what this is?‖
Wyatt put a bunch of Fruit Loops in his mouth. No response.
―Wyatt!‖ I forced eye contact with him. ―Where are the other scissors? See these.‖ I showed him the half pair.
He smiled big. Ate Fruit Loops. Turned the TV on and off. Still no response.
I didn‘t know what to do. It was really hard. ―Wyatt,‖ I tried once more, ―Mommy wants these scissors. Can you go get them for Mommy? It will make Mommy so happy if you bring me the sc issors.‖
―Watch Spongebob.‖ Wyatt asked as he slid down fro m his kitchen stool and ran off, leaving me shaking my head and wondering in exactly which way this situation was going to end badly.
Five minutes later, I turned my head to see Wyatt coming downstairs, his favorite doll in one hand, the missing half pair of kitchen scissors in the other. I immediately ran over and took it from him.
―Wyatt!‖ I hugged him. ―Thank you for bringing me the scissors! Good job! You did it! These scissors need to stay in the kitchen. These are Mommy‘s scissors!‖
Wyatt laughed, looked at me straight in the eye and said, ―Mommy so happy!‖
I came close to tears. A realization dawned on me that he was the best gift I had ever gotten even though he was not as normal as other children. And why did I hide him from others as if he were some dark and terrible secret. No! He was my pride. It was a long, hard battle to get him to this point,
expressing his wants and needs without turning to violence in embarrassment. With love and patience I have found the beautiful, happy boy who would teach me more about life.
And that is the solution.

A. a heavy blow

C. an unforgettable lesson
D. a ridiculous experience

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意每题的词数要求）。Some years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, ―Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us.‖ That ―quite‖ saddened me. I thought he was saying ―we‘re kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else.‖ Then I discovered that in American English ―quite‖ sometimes means ―very‖, while in British English it means ―fairly‖.
So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don‘t just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures.
Some of these differences may be only on the surface—dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate, while getting on with business.
Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality(准时). If you invite people to a party at 7 o‘clock, your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word ―late‖ because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.
