If you want to be a writ er, go for it! Pursue writing! Mr. Ralston s _ to follow my dreams was

15、 the little nudge I needed to help me push past my _ of not making it as a writer and simply “ Go for it! That s what an encouraging word will do when spoken in love in _ season.

27、exploration 18. According to figures released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), the U.K. has about 7.7 million families with dependent children, of which 3.7 million have just one child, compared to 3 million with two and 1.1 million with three children or more. The number of families tod

28、ay with just one dependent child is now 47 percent and will likely rise to more than 50 percent in a decade. As the ONS confirms, “ It appears that families are getting smaller. ” One obvious reason for this could be that women are putting off having children until they have established careers when

29、 they are bound to be less fertile. But it could just as well be a matter of choice. Parents must consider the rising cost of living, combined with economic uncertainty and an increasingly difficult job market. And this trend may continue growing as having an only child becomes more normal, which se

30、ems to be the mood on the mothers online forum Mumsnet, where one member announced that she “ just wanted to start a positive thread about how fab it is to have an only child ”. She had received 231 replies, overwhelmingly in the same upbeat spirit. Parents of only children insist there are plenty o

31、f benefits. Nicola Kelly, a writer and lecturer who grew up as an only child and is now a married mother of one, says her 15-year-old son seems more grown-up in many ways than his contemporaries. Not all products of single-child families are as keen to repeat the experience. In a moving recent accou

32、nt journalist Janice Turner wrote about her own keenness to “ squeeze out two so ns just 22 months apart ” as a reaction to her only-child upbringing. She was placed on a pedestal by her doting parents, whom she punished with a “ brattish, wilful ” rejection of everything they stood for. Desperate f

33、or a close friend she was repeatedly shattered by rejection and refers to her childhood as being “ misery ”. Writer and clinician Dr. Dorothy Rowe, a member of the British Psychological Society, says that we all interpret events in our own individual way and there are some children who no matter wha

34、t their circumstances feel slighted, while other children see the advantages of their situation. However, the one part of life that is unlikely to get any easier for only children is when they grow up and find themselves looking after their own parents as they become older. 1. The passage is written

35、 with the purpose of _ . A. illustrating the strength and weakness of having an only child B. analyzing the reasons why having an only child becomes popular C. presenting us with different opinions about having an only child D. guiding people to look at the same issue from different perspectives 2.

36、What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Nearly half of families intend to have just one child. B. All people don t stand for the idea of having an only child. C. Some people fail to recognize the advantage of having an only child. D. People brought up in an only child family resist

37、 downsizing the family. 3. _ From what Dr. Dorothy Rowe said, we know that _ . A. journalist Janice Turner experienced a miserable childhood B. she has a positive attitude towards Janice Turner s reaction C. it s necessary for us to look at the event from our own angle D. some are unable to make an

38、objective assessment of their conditions 4. What can be inferred from the passage? A. It s normal to see the imperfection in character in only children. B. Mumsnet is an online forum which promotes having an only child. C. Economic development plays a determining role in the family size. D. Only chi

39、ldren will have difficulty in attending to their parents. 19. Exercise seems to be good for the human brain, with many recent studies suggesting that regular exercise improves memory and thinking skills. But an interesting new study asks whether the apparent cognitive benefits from exercise are real

40、 or just a placebo effect that is, if we think we will be “ smarter ” after exercise, do our brains respond accordingly? The answer has significant implications for any of us hoping to use exercise to keep our minds sharp throughout our lives. While many studies suggest that exercise may have cognit

41、ive benefits, recently some scientists have begun to question whether the apparently beneficial effects of exercise on thinking might be a placebo effect. So researchers at Florida State University in Tallahassee and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign decided to focus on expectations, on

42、 what people anticipate that exercise will do for thinking. If people s expectations jibe （ 吻合 ） closely with the actual benefits, then at least some of those improvements are probably a result of the placebo effect and not of exercise. For the new study, which was published last month in PLOS One,

43、the researchers recruited 171 people through an online survey system, they asked half of these volunteers to estimate by how much a stretching and toning regimens （ 運動 ） performed three times a week might improve various measures of thinking. The other volunteers were asked the same questions, but a

44、bout a regular walking program. In actual experiments, stretching and toning program generally have little if any impact on people s cognitive skills. Walking, on the other hand, seems to substantially improve thinking ability. But the survey respondents believed the opposite, estimating that the st

45、retching and toning program would be more beneficial for the mind than walking. The estimates of benefits from walking were lower. These data, while they do not involve any actual exercise, are good news for people who do exercise. “ The results from our study suggest that the benefits of aerobic ex

46、ercise are not a placebo effect, ” said Cary Stothart, a graduate student in cognitive psychology at Florida State University, who led the study. If expectations had been driving the improvements in cognition seen in studies after exercise, Mr. 拉伸 Stothart said, then people should have expected walk

47、ing to be more beneficial for thinking than stretching. They didn t, implying that the changes in the brain and thinking after exercise are physiologically genuine. The findings are strong enough to suggest that exercise really does change the brain and may, in the process, improve thinking, Mr. Sto

48、thart said. That conclusion should encourage scientists to look even more closely into how, at a molecular level, exercise remodels the human brain, he said. It also should encourage the rest of us to move, since the benefits are, it seems, not imaginary, even if they are in our head. 1. Which of th

49、e following about the placebo effect is TRUE according to the passage? A. It occurs during exercise. B. It has cognitive benefits. C. It is just a mental reaction. D. It is a physiological response. 2. Why did the researchers at the two universities conduct the research? A. To discover the placebo e

50、ffect in the exercise. B. To prove the previous studies have a big drawback. C. To test whether exercise can really improve cognition. D. To encourage more scientists to get involved in the research. 3. What can we know about the research Cary Stothart and his team carried out? A. They employed 171

51、people to take part in the actual exercise. B. The result of the research removed the recent doubt of some scientists. C. The participants thought walking had a greater impact on thinking ability. D. Their conclusion drives scientists to do research on the placebo effect. 4. What might be the best t

52、itle for the passage? A. Is it necessary for us to take exercise? B. How should people exercise properly? C. What makes us smarter during exercise? D. Does exercise really make us smarter? 20. Mum, it s me. Hopefully, this Mothering Sunday you will get to hear those three words. I will, of course, t

53、ry to phone you. I hope we will be able to speak for the allowed 10 minutes. But I suspect many inmates will be using the phone, so if I don t call and if we don t speak, then this is what I would have said: It s not your fault that I am here. I know that deep in your heart you have questioned wheth

54、er my current circumstance is somehow your fault, if the reckless stupidity of my past is somehow a failure on your part. It is not. Only one person is to blame, only one person should hurt me. You have always taught me that when the room goes dark, you can wait for the lights to be switched back on

55、 or you can search in the dark and turn the light on yourself. You are my light. You always have been and always will be. There is nobody I admire more, nobody I have strived harder to please in my life, which is why my current failure hurts me so much. I am so sorry that I will not be there to see

56、you, but I want you to know that now, as always, you are here with me. In my darkest hours, and in the coldest loneliness of my past few months, my mind has so often wandered to the past, to when it was you and me I have been able to smile. Yours is the strength that I draw upon. A parent s job is t

57、o make sure that they pass on the best of themselves to their children. You have done that. It is the inner you in me that will get me through this . I have failed you so epically, but you have never failed me. If I think back to the tears I shed when Dad left, all those years ago, I see you through

58、 their misty glaze. You holding me and you telling me we d be OK, and we will be. We are and always will be the best team. Childhood heroes such as footballers, actors and rock stars are clich e d . If the job s done right, a child s heroes should be their parents you are mine. The strength you show

59、ed after the divorce from Dad to find your biological parents, to go to university and get your teaching qualifications, to begin your life again, is the strength that I draw on now. It is the belief in myself, it is the belief you have in me, that tells me that once I am released I can and will reb

60、uild my life. I will make you proud again. I will make you happy to have me as your son. Yours is the will that gets me through every day. I don t believe you can judge a person for the mistakes they make, as we all make them, but you can judge them for what they do afterwards. And after this, when
