On that day, everything went wrong. First we had to wait for Ted to find his shoes. On the half way, we had to
go back to the house as Mom ____11____ her wallet at home. Then, we drove far to find a restroom for Indi. After
that, my parents decided to take a shortcut, which ended up turning into a long cut! We were driving forever on a

At first, we kids weren’t exactly jumping up and down about the idea. But as we looked around, cool things
started happening.
“Hey!” Indi said. “This huge butterfly ____16____ on my knee! She’s so beautiful.”
“Look!” Mom pointed at two cute rabbits happily eating grass. “We’re not the only ones who think this is a
good spot for a ____17____.”
Just then, we noticed hundreds of birds rose up out of the trees and flew into the sky in the most amazing
patterns!
“Wow! That’s the most magical thing I’ve ever seen!” said Ted.
Finally, we didn’t make it to the farm, and we ate my cupcakes — they were so delicious!

Janie read the invitation to a Halloween party from Manuella, trying to make sure she had not received it by
mistake.
“Thank you for inviting me to your party, Manuella,” Janie said to Manuella when she saw her.
“Oh. I had to invite all the kids in the class, or my mom wouldn’t let me have it,” Manuella told her.
“I’m looking forward to it,” Janie replied, hoping she did not sound as hurt as she felt. “Is it all right to wear
the clothes that we wear for the school party?”
“I don’t care what you wear, Janie.”
“Who are you going to dress as, Manuella?” Janie asked.“I haven’t decided yet.”
“Well, thank you again, Manuella.”
“Yeah. Whatever,” Manuella replied.
On her way home, Janie kept trying to think of any time she had been mean to Manuella. She didn’t understand
why Manuella was mean to her. So she called Karen, “Did I do anything that made Manuella unhappy?”
“It isn’t anything you’ve done,” Karen answered. “It’s who you are. Manuella used to be the most popular girl
的
in our school. But now they think you are. She’s hurt and frustrated (沮丧 ). She sees herself as your enemy.”
“Wow! I never thought of that. I want to be her friend. I have to get her back into the spotlight.” Then Janie got
an idea.
It was the party time. When Janie got to Manuella’s house, Manuella was shocked because Janie was dressed
like her.
“But, why?” asked Manuella. “We were told to dress like someone we admire.”
“I did. Manuella, you don’t know how pretty, smart and talented you are. I’d like to be your friend. Will you let
me?”
“If you can forgive me for being so jealous and mean to you. I’m sorry, Janie. I’d be happy to have you.”

A typical example of a morning person is thought to be someone who wakes up naturally at 6 am, exercises,
has breakfast and is ready for a productive day at work by 9 am. Whereas an evening person hates to get up early in
the morning and feels more productive in the evening. What’s behind the different chronotypes (睡眠类型) ?
Researchers have analyzed (分析) the relationship between chronotypes and personality traits. A large number
of participants were asked to answer questionnaires about their sleep timings and personality. Opinions on theparticipants’ personality from those who knew them well were also collected. In this way, researchers were able to
see the relationships between sleep and personality.
Researchers found that people high in conscientiousness (认真尽责) and low in openness were connected with
having earlier chronotypes. They went to bed and got out of bed earlier. They also found that less straightforward
and excitement-searching, yet more self-disciplined (自律的) people were more likely to have earlier chronotypes,
too.
These findings have helped researchers come up with two possible pathways of how personality might
influence chronotype. First, personality traits may influence people’s preferences for different social activities,
which in turn, may influence what time people go to bed. For example, people who like searching for excitement
might go to concerts and bars more often, which may keep them up later at night. The second possible way is
through active decisions people make regarding their sleep. More self-disciplined people make decisions to sleep
earlier as a healthy lifestyle choice. Other research has shown people high in self-discipline avoid behaviors that are
harmful to their health.
“Although personality traits go through little change over time,” Professor Anu Realo, one of the researchers,
says, “our findings suggest it might be possible to change your chronotype or at least train yourself into a different,
more socially convenient sleep pattern by increasing your self-control.” Evening people who typically experience
worse health could learn to go to bed earlier, or regularly turn off the lights at earlier hours, which might lead to
falling asleep earlier and better health.
25. Which of the following people is most likely to have an earlier chronotype?
A. Peter who often makes mistakes in his work and fails to report on time. B. Tom who enjoys going to different
concerts and parties to make friends.
C. Jane who goes running for an hour every day and hardly ever eats junk food.D. Mary who is popular at school
and prefers to tell others her thoughts directly.
26. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The purpose of the research. B. The background of the research.
C. The progress in the research method. D. The analysis of the research findings.
27. Why does the writer mention Professor Anu Realo’s words in Paragraph 5?
A. To explain how different personality traits influence people’s sleep timings. B. To discuss why a morning
person is more popular than an evening person.
C. To stress regularly turning off the lights at earlier hours is very important. D. To show sleeping patterns could
be changed by increasing self-discipline.
28. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Personality Traits: Connections to Your Sleep Timing B. Are Personality Traits Becoming Your Worst Enemy?
C. Personality Traits: Possible Solutions to Your Problems D. Are Personality Traits Changing Your Ways of
Thinking?
D
A Dairy Queen manager stood up for a blind man. The blind man dropped a $20 bill, and a woman picked it
up and pocketed it. Seeing that, the manager threw her out of the restaurant and then handed the man $20 from his
own pocket. His good act made headlines on the Internet. It may not be totally new, but public attention does seem
to be attracted these days by ordinary (普通的) people, who make extraordinary moral (道德的) decisions.
Mimi Drumwright, a professor from University of Texas, says, “This is the type of stories that will encourage
goodness. The reports of the good acts probably will beget more good acts, and that is a good thing. Already,
countless strangers have been paying it forward with $20 to the Dairy Queen manager.”
Some experts, however, question if airing this kind of “good” news is actually good. They say there may be a
downside to overplaying it.
“They did do the right thing. But heroic? I think not. They had the duty to do what they did. It was not above
and beyond the call of duty,” says professor Peter Madsen from Carnegie Mellon.
When people celebrate what should be ordinary behavior as extraordinary, experts say, it sends a dangerous
message. “I do worry about a culture in which people are giving selves credit for not having done terrible things. It
sets a really low standard for what it takes to be a good person,” says professor Daniel Effron from London
Business School. He thinks praising people for what he calls “the immoral road not taken” could actually have the
opposite effect. When do-gooders are too highly praised, it means that they’re far greater than the rest of us. It even
suggests that most people in that situation would be indifferent to what happens, unwilling to get into trouble or
offer to give a hand. More disappointingly, they won’t feel bad when behaving like this. So, it suggests that most
people are selfish and self-serving, and therefore, it’s OK if they’re selfish and self-serving.
Others, however, argue that the reason why these stories are seen as unusual is not that we devalue (贬低)
ourselves. They suggest we devalue these particular do-gooders.
We have to be careful not to go overboard. But celebrating people for doing the right thing is still the right
thing to do.
29. The underlined word “beget” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.
A. put off B. work out C. lead to D. cut down
30. “A dangerous message” mentioned by experts in Paragraph 5 might suggest ________.
A. people will feel upset when they do anything immoral B. people will think it normal not to offer help to those in
needC. people won’t be punished even if having done terrible things D. people won’t be afraid of getting into trouble
when giving a hand
.
31 The writer probably agrees that ________.
.
A the reports of good acts can have little influence on others B. devaluing ourselves is why we see ordinary
stories as unusual
C. ordinary good acts make headlines because of people’s selfish nature D. praising people for doing the right
thing properly should be encouraged

Doctors Use Scientific Tools to Repair Museum’s Artworks
The conservators (修复员) at the Smithsonian American Art Museum are called “art doctors”. They use
scientific tools to repair the museum’s artworks and often wear white lab coats. However, unlike regular doctors,
their patients never shout “ouch”.
“We X-ray art to see how it’s made and practise preventative care,” said Amber Kerr, the head of conservation.
“And if something’s broken, we fix it.”
Kerr is one of the seven conservators who work in the museum’s Lunder Conservation Center. The center
opened in 2006 as the country’s first conservation lab. Before then, museums hid pieces that didn’t look their best
and repaired them behind the scenes.
In the spirit of sharing, the museum invites visitors to watch the conservators repair artworks from their glass-
walled labs on the third floor.
,
On a recent afternoon Leah Bright, an objects conservator, was caring for two art pieces at her workstation. A
piece of a massive sculpture (大型雕塑) was under a microscope. She pointed out holes in a small part of the
aluminum foil (铝箔) that covered the artwork. “Here is the damage. We will record it and try to stop it,” she said.
The other item was a stone sculpture of Venus with two broken legs. One of its owners had tried to fix the legs
with metal sticks and glue, but the staff had noticed the sculpture rocking back-and-forth at the joints. “It was not
safe,” Bright said. To stop the swing, the conservators used a special filler. They also used the paint they mixed to
match the color of the sculpture.In another room, Keara Teeter, a painting conservator, was working on two works from William H Johnson’s
Fighters for Freedom series. The paintings are part of a travelling exhibit. It’s planned to reach its first stop, South
Carolina, in January. Teeter was preparing them for the journey by retouching areas where small pieces of the paint
had come off and adding glass to the frame to protect the works from humidity, dirt, heat, etc.
