18、ll always make sure their children have the best of everything. One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones. Choices include private school, charter school, public school
19、 or homeschooling.Fortunately for parents, there are a variety of different strategies that they can take in order to increase their childs overall intelligence. According to Ross A. Thompson, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis, a childs brain will actually reach 9
20、0% of its full size by the time they start kindergarten.Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago concluded that playing a musical instrument directly affected the brain stem, the lower section of the brain. Moreover, children that learn an instrument at an early age tend to continue it when
21、 they are older. And numerous studies show that a well-balanced meal is essential for a childs mental as well as physical health. Some other researchers recommended that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. They state that three to four years of age is the perfect time
22、and that any age under four would work perfectly fine for a childs brain development.The average child will learn how to read between kindergarten and second grade. Many parents can give their children a jump start by teaching them to read before they start school. Children could have an adequate ba
23、ckground of the alphabet and sounds of words before attending school. This can be done by simply reading to them whenever you want. The more comfortable they get, the easier the process will be.24. From the first paragraph, we can infer that _. A. parents have more choices in offering education to t
24、heir kids B. parents find it hard to satisfy their kids various demands C. parents meet a new challenge when raising their kids D. parents get actively involved in the process of their kids growth 25. What suggestion may the researchers in the passage make? A. To train kids as early as possible. B.
25、To try as many means as possible. C. To help kids develop as fully as possible. D. To use as many available resources as possible.26. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss? A.

27、ics market is worth $26 billion a year, making it the third-biggest in the world. Euromonitor, a research firm, believe it will grow 8% each year from now to 2017.It would seem surprising, then, that some of the worlds best-known brands are giving up on such an attractive market. This week LOreal of
28、 France, the worlds biggest cosmetics firm, said that it will stop selling its Garnier line of beauty products in China. This came on the heels of an announcement by Revlon, an American rival, that it would leave the country altogether.LOreal insists that this is not a step back from the Chinese mar
29、ket, of which it commands an 11% share, but rather a shift in strategy. It says it will henceforth (今后) concentrate on selling Chinese consumers its LOreal Paris and Maybelline New York lines. Revlon has done rather less well in China, which accounts for a tiny share of its global revenues. It is sa
30、id to have suffered a big fall in sales in recent months and blames this on a slowing Chinese economy.A few years ago, when Chinas annual GDP growth was in double figures and its consumers had barely begun to fill their repressed desire for foreign luxury, the firms that sold it set themselves ambit
31、ious targets. Now China is coming to resemble a more normal emerging market: still with much potential for growth, but with no guarantee that every fancy foreign product entering it will get a piece of the action. Consumers are becoming more reasonable and experienced, and are increasingly unwilling
32、 to pay extra money for all but the very best brands.At the same time costs are high. Wages for “beauty assistants” and other saleswomen are rising at double-digit rates annually. Marketing in such a huge and diverse country, is complex. To cap it all, Chinese cosmetics firms are quickly catching up
33、 with the foreign ones.As the costs rise and the growth slows, LOreal and Revlon are unlikely to be the last foreign cosmetics firms to think again about their ambitions in China.28. Which statement is true about Chinas cosmetics market?A. It is worth $26 million a year.B. It is growing at a rate of
34、 8% each year.C. Chinas cosmetics market is the third-biggest in the world.D. Chinas domestic brands have defeated foreign brands overwhelmingly.29. The underlined phrase “came on the heels of” (Para.2) is closest in meaning to _.A. followedB. affected byC. caught up withD. was prior to30. Why did s
35、ome worlds famous cosmetics brands change their strategy in China?A. Because LOreal commands a share of 11%, leaving little potential for other brands.B. Chinese consumers began to fill their repressed desire for foreign luxury.C. There is limited potential for development in Chinas cosmetics market
36、.D. The costs are high and Chinas economic growth is slowing down.31. How will the author probably predict Chinas future cosmetics market?A. It will grow at a rate of 8% each year from now to 2017.B. LOreal and Revlon will be the only two foreign brands to reconsider their ambitions in China.C. Fore
37、ign brands will face fierce competition with domestic brands.D. For all the challenges, foreign cosmetics firms are optimistic about their ambitions in China.D With tourism developing fast, youd expect greater understanding between the nations of the world. Not a bit of it although superb systems of
38、 communication by air, sea and land make it possible for us to visit each others countries at a reasonable cost. What was once the “grand tour”, reserved for only the very rich, is now within everybodys grasp so that modern travelers enjoy a level of comfort. But whats the sense of this mass exchang
39、e of populations if the nations of the world keep ignoring each other?Many tourist organizations deliberately set out to protect their travelers from too much contact with the local population. The modern tourist leads a sheltered life, such as living at international hotels, eating food and sipping
40、 drink there. However, he stares at the natives from a distance. Guided tours to places of interest are carefully planned. The tourist is allowed to see only what the organizers want him to see and no more, and language also holds them back. So he is only too happy to be protected in this way. The s
41、ad thing about this situation is that it leads to the continuance of national stereotypes. That is, we dont see the people of other nations as they really are, but as we have been brought up to believe they are. So when you set out on your travels, the only characteristics you notice are those which
42、 confirm your previous knowledge. You leave with the highly unoriginal and inaccurate impression that, say, “Latin peoples shout a lot”. You only have to make foreign friends to understand how absurd and harmful national stereotypes (成见) are. But how can you make foreign friends when the tourist tra

46、选项中有两项为多余选项If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. 36 “There are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount(越过) the pyramids the eagle and the snail.”If I were a boy again, I would school myself into
47、a habit of attention. I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. 37 The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough.I often hear grown-up people say, “I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book, although I wished to do so,” and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.If I were a boy again,
