Grandpa and Me
As my summer vacation drew nearer and nearer, I made a long list of things I wished to do and could hardly
wait to begin a brand-new journey. However, when my mom told me that I had to live with my grandfather for six
weeks, I complained. A voice inside me said that it would be miserable to live with my grandpa, which meant no
afternoon baseball games with my neighborhood friends.The first week with Grandpa was fine. We went out for dinner and watched TV together. One day, Grandpa
was sitting at the table reading the newspaper. I sat on the couch and flipped(快速翻动) through my baseball card
collection. “Wish I had a Hank Aaron card,” I said to myself.
When Grandpa heard me, he said in surprise, “I didn’t know you liked baseball, Susan.” I explained that it was
my favorite sport and I usually played it all summer with my friends. Grandpa stood up shakily and walked to the
door. “Let’s go,” he said, with excitement. “I want to show you something.”
We drove for quite a while, and when Grandpa finally stopped the car, we were in front of some old houses. A
sign on each house said “Land Will Be Sold. Call For Details.” I noticed that Grandpa had a faraway look in his
eyes. “I haven’t been here for decades,” he whispered. “Probably twenty or thirty years.” We walked there and he
pointed down the street and said, “That’s the field where I used to play baseball every summer.” Then I realized
where we were: This was the house where Grandpa grew up! We looked inside a window and saw a big mess. No
one had lived here for a long time.
On the ride home, Grandpa was very quiet. I thought about how he must miss his old home and the friends he
grew up with. If he could just go back in time for a few minutes, he would feel very happy and less lonely. Then I
realized that six weeks away from home was not too bad, especially with Grandpa around.

Self-control is a skill that children need to succeed in school, socially and emotionally. The development of
self-control begins at birth and continues throughout our lives. As babies, we have little or no control over our
behaviors and emotions, but as we get older, with the help of parents or caregivers, we learn how to take turns, howto pay attention in class, stick to a challenging task, and restrain(制止) from hitting another child. These abilities
continue to develop in our childhood and then youthhood. Also, it is clear that being impulsive(易冲动的) can have
bad effects on children, causing interpersonal problems, poor physical health, and psychiatric disorders.
Therefore, by learning self-control, children can make right decisions and respond to situations in positive
ways. One of the effective strategies, when helping children develop self-control abilities, is to select
developmentally proper tasks. Try setting up simple goals first, where success is expected, before moving onto the
next goal. For preschoolers, goals might include not interrupting or not fighting on the playground. For early
elementary school students, right goals might be following bedtime rules.
However, it’s not enough to set up simple goals, because for children of the same age, there are still some
differences in the development of self-control abilities. Some general strategies often help them learn right self-
control behaviors.
•Take a break
Encourage children to take a break or “time in” whenever they feel down, annoyed or angry. Stepping away
from an upsetting situation can help a child calm down.
•Teach and provide attention
Paying attention is a skill that can be taught. Encourage children to resist interrupting by learning to observe
others without talking, so they can join in easily. Make sure to provide children with attention at times so they don’t
feel ignored and therefore are unlikely to interrupt.
•Use proper rewards(奖励)
In order to develop positive behaviors, children need frequently positive feedback. Praise and consistent
feedback can be highly rewarding for young children. It is important to let a child know what a desired behavior is.
•Use activities designed to teach self-regulation(自我管理)
Using specific activities can help teach young children skills that improve self-control. Some of these skills
include dealing with “wanting something I can’t have”, understanding feelings, and controlling anger.
27. What can we learn from Paragraph 1 ?
A. As people get older, their attention will improve naturally.
B. Being impulsive can often cause bad results in children’s grades.
C. Children can learn how to control themselves with the help of parents.
D. Self-control development begins at birth and keeps growing till youthhood.
28. What can teachers do when students feel very disappointed?
A. Teach and provide attention. B. Give rewards and suggestions.
C. Teach skills to regulate themselves. D. Encourage them to take a break.29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Time Waits for No Man — The Development of Self-Control
B. Have Power over Your Mind — Tips on Developing Self-Control
C. Prevention Is Better than Cure — Rules of Self-Control Behaviors
D. Think Twice Before You Act — The Importance of Self-Control Skills
D
Technology Progress
On June 22, 1927, Charles Lindbergh flew into Dayton, Ohio, for dinner at Orville Wright’s house. It had been
just a month since the young pilot's first ever individual nonstop crossing of the Atlantic, and he felt he ought to pay
respects to the pioneer of flight.
Forty-two years later, on July 16, 1969, Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong was allowed to bring a personal
guest to the Kennedy Space Center to view the launch of NASA's towering Saturn V rocket. Armstrong invited his
hero, Charles Lindbergh. That's how fast technology advanced in the 20th century.
However, progress isn't what it used to be now. Northwestern University economist Robert Gordon argues that
by 1970, all the key technologies of modern life were in place: electricity, highways, telecommunications, and the
like. After that, innovation (创新)and economic growth simply couldn't keep going as fast as the last 100 years-
a period Gordon calls "the special century". Gordon argues the lives of people in developed nations look and feel
the same in 2020 as they did in 1979 or 1989.
Slowing down is good in one small way, though bad in most of the ways that count. Rapid changes can
sometimes be disorienting (令人迷惑的). And when things develop at a lower speed, people and institutions do
have more time to breathe and fit in. But slowing down isn't what it should be. In many areas of technology, the
forward movement today feels tragically slow, even nonexistent.
Consider consumer robotics. There's huge potential for robots to help us. But home robotics companies seem
to keep folding. For example, social robot maker Jibo closed in March after raising almost $73 million.
Our century’s one signature technology achievement is smartphones. At this point, we've had them in our
pockets long enough to begin to appreciate their dangers. Meanwhile, the list of possibly world-changing
technologies that get people's attention but still remain in the original stage is very long. Self-driving cars, AR
glasses. Need I continue?
Indeed, these are all hard problems. But historically, solving the big problems has required continuous, large-
scale investment(投资), often with private markets and taxpayers sharing the cost. In this century, we need to
undo some bad results of the last great boom (繁荣)by developing affordable zero-and negative-emissions
technologies right now. That's another hard problem-and to solve it, we'll need to rethink what made the "specialcentury" so special.
30. The writer mentions Charles Lindbergh in Paragraphs 1 and 2 to show that __________.
A. Charles has contributed greatly to technology
B. Charles paid respects to the pioneer of flight
C. technology developed rapidly in the 20th century
D. technology has advanced to a higher new level
31. The underlined word "folding” in Paragraph 5 probably means _____________.
A. shutting B. separating C. growing D. operating
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Some world-changing technologies are not making progress.
B. Home robotics companies failed because of little investment.
C. It's time to realize the disadvantages of fast development now.
D. It doesn't take us long before we realize the dangers of smartphones.
33. The writer probably agrees _______________.
A. markets and taxpayers have a duty to develop technologies
B. innovation and investment are needed for technology advance
C. what made the last century special will happen in the new century
D. rapid changes in technology are bad in most of the ways that count
七、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
Hector, the Superhero
Hector dreamed of being a superhero, just like Universe Man. If he were a superhero, he would zoom high in
the sky and save cats stuck in trees. He would stop robbers with his superpowers. He would turn bad guys into ants
or even cabbages.
One day, as he practiced flying around his room, his mom knocked on his door. “Remember, you’re going to
the eye doctor today,” she said.
“But Mom,” Hector said. “I can see fine.”
“You might need glasses to see better,” Mom said. “Then you wouldn’t have to hold your comics(漫画书)
up to your nose. And you’d look cool, like a movie star!”
,
“I don’t want to be a movie star. I want to be a superhero like Universe Man. And he doesn’t wear
glasses.” Hector said. None of the other kids in his class wore them, either. What would they think?
Hector and his mom went into the department store. They passed by superhero T-shirts, action figures, and
games. Was that a Universe Man toy on the top shelf? He squinted(眯着眼看), but he couldn’t tell.
,
The eye doctor’s office in the department store had racks and racks of eyeglass frames plus huge picturesof smiling people wearing glasses. Those smiles didn’t fool Hector. They weren’t superheroes.
Hector sat in a big chair. The doctor checked his eyes by pointing to a chart of the letters. The top line was
easy, the second line he could guess, but the next lines were blurry. Then Hector looked through a huge machine,
like a thick, heavy mask. The doctor turned a wheel and changed the lens on the machine again and again. At last, it
was time for picking frames. But Hector didn’t see any frames a superhero would wear. He put a pair of blue
frames on and looked in the mirror. “They’re OK.” But he looked different. Not like Universe Man at all.
One week later, Hector’s glasses were ready. They felt funny on his nose, but not too bad.
Hector looked around. Wow! His mom’s eyes were green! How come he had never noticed that silver in Dad’s
hair? And there was a lucky penny, lying on the ground for him to pick up!
Everything was sharp and clear. No bad guys could get past him now. With his super glasses, he could save the
world! “I have the power!” he cried.
