8、 to resist about cherries. The small red fruit is a popular seasonal food around the world.Cherries are thought to be native to western Asia. It is a member of the same family of plants as the rose. It is closelyrelated to the plum. Like cherry trees, plum trees also flower in early spring.There are

9、 two major kinds of cherries harvested in the world: sweet and sour. Sour cherries are not eaten freshbecause they contain little sugar. Instead, they are processed to make prepared foods like jellies and pies and tomake alcoholic drinks. The United States is a major producer of sour cherries. Among

10、 the states, Michigan is the topproducer. Russia, Poland and Turkey are other important cherry-producing nations. Sweet cherries contain muchmore sugar than their sour relatives and are usually eaten fresh. Washington State is the biggest American producer,followed by California and Oregon. The Unit

11、ed States, Iran and Turkey are major producers of sweet cherries. Freshcherries do not store well. They must reach market as soon as possible. So they cost more than many other kinds offresh fruit.Farmers produce different kinds of cherries through the process of grafting（嫁接 ）. They takecuttings fro

12、m existing trees and join them to related trees. The cuttings grow into the root stock, so the two kinds oftrees grow as one.Cherry trees are also valued for their springtime blossoms. Cherry blossoms are popular in many parts of Asia andEurope, especially in Japan. But Washington, D. C. , has some

13、of the most famous cherry trees in the world. Japangave the United States 3,500 cherry trees in 1912 as a gift of friendship. Years later Japan gave another gift of 3,800trees.

A big difference invo

18、lves money.Public colleges and universities charge for an education just like private schools. But state schools cost less becausethey get money from the states that started them to educate local citizens. As a result, out-of-state and internationalstudents usually pay more than state residents, at

19、least the first year.The state with the most residents, almost forty million, is California. Its systems of two-year and four-year collegesand universities are among the largest in the world. But the example we are going to focus on today is to the north ofCalifornia, in a much smaller state on the

20、West Coast: Oregon.The University of Oregon, located in Eugene, is one of the campuses in the Oregon University System. The cost forundergraduates this year is $6,000 for state residents. Housing is an additional $8,000. Non-residents pay the samefor housing-but almost $20,000 for tuition and fees.L

21、ets see how these numbers compare to a private college in Oregon.Lewis and Clark College in Portland has 4,000 students, compared to 20,000 at the University ofOregon. Housing costs $800 more than at the state school. But the big difference is tuition. The published price atLewis and Clark is almost

22、 $34,000.Yet Lewis and Clark is one of the few American colleges to offer financial aid for international students. Each year itawards financial aid to twenty students from other countries. And it says the average award last year was 19,000dollars. That would make Lewis and Clark cheaper for interna

23、tional students than the University of Oregon.But, of course, prices alone do not say anything about the quality of a school or the value of an education.（分?jǐn)?shù)： 10.00 ）（1）.One of the differences between public and private universities is _ .A. private universities are usually smaller than the public o

29、ons of people each year.Five years ago, the United Nations published results of a study about domestic violence. It found that as many as 275million children worldwide witness violence in the home. These boys and girls represent a secret society of sufferers.Officials say they are the forgotten vict

30、ims of domestic violence.Research shows such children face a greater risk of problems in school, emotional disorders, and drug abuse,amongother things. Many children who witness violence at homegrow up to becomeabusers or victims themselves.That is why the UN Childrens Fund calls domestic violence o

31、ne of the most important human rights challenges of ourtimes.The congressional hearing was held last week to educate American policy makers about the problem.

33、cause of violence in the home.The problem is believed to be even more widespread than these numbers suggest. Many cases of domestic violenceare never reported.

42、ied other forms of the genes. The newlyfound genes are involved in regulating the actions in the brain, and have been linked in other studies to levelsattention and intelligence.It is true that in recent years, scientists have produced a growing number of studies linkingthe capacity to learn to spec

43、ific genes. A team at Kings College London, for example, has published several articlesrelating ability in mathematics to different varieties in DNA. Children whocarried 10 or more of the risk genes identified by the researchers were nearly twice as likely to perform poorly inmath, according to a 20

44、10 study generated by the group. In another experiment, scientists reported that someindividuals possess another two forms of genes involved in brain development that may make it easier for them tolearn difficult languages like Chinese.But scientists have long warned against attributing complex huma

45、n behaviors to the action of a few genes-andlearning is among the most complex things we do. The authors of these studies acknowledge this. Mathematicalability and disability are influenced by many forms of genes generating small effects across the entire system ofability, writes Sophia Docherty, wh

46、o heads the Kings College team.
