21、   Birth order (出生顺序) —does it matter? Are you different because you are the first, second, or third in you family—or maybe the last of nine?

A study found that first-borns have an average (平均的) IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order, perhaps because first-borns often help younger brothers and sisters, which improves their own skills. In 2007, an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of CEOs are first-borns, 33% are middle children, and 23% are last-borns. First-borns are more likely (可能的) to be doctors and astronauts (宇航员) and get higher pay.

If first-borns are more successful, last-borns are generally more agreeable (令人愉快的). They are also more likely to be funny, possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table. Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families, and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four. According to a 2007 Time magazine article, “The power of Birth Order.” last-borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen.

Then there are the middle children: we have not ignored (忽视) them! Many middle children are short of one-on-one time with their parents. They often feel short-changed: the oldest gets more rights, and the youngest is spoiled (宠坏的). Though they may be ignored, middle children are more likely to grow into easy-going adults.

Many factors (因素) make us who we are, but if the research is correct, birth order may be one of the most important factors.

【1】Who is most likely to be a CEO?

A．A first-born.

B．A second-born.

C．A third-born.

D．A last-born.

【2】What can we learn about Jim Carrey?

A．He is likely to be given low pay.

B．He is likely to be agreeable.

C．He is a first-born.

D．He is a middle child.

【3】What does the underlined word “short-changed” in paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?

A．受亏待的

B．受控制的

C．受宠爱的

D．受欢迎的

【4】What can we learn from the research that birth order ________.

A．has no influence on IQ

B．matters a lot at the dinner table

C．may decide who we are

D．is a factor in making us powerful

【5】What would be the best title for the text?

A．What influence birth order has on you

B．Who improves your social skills

C．What makes you successful in life

D．How can you grow into a big man

22、When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward (奖励)? It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.

One of them is Susie Walton, an education expert. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth doing unless they get something in return. Kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Walton also says, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”

Other people don’t think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding them also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that they need to work to make money. Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.

So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.

【1】Which of the following is Susie Walton’s opinion?

A．Don’t ask kids to do housework.

B．Don’t give rewards for doing chores.

C．Housework is not worth doing.

D．Giving kids rewards is a good idea.

【2】What do people want to teach kids by giving them rewards for doing chores?

A．People need to work to make money.

B．Doing chores is a good way to make money.

C．They can watch TV by doing chores.

D．They must share housework with parents.

【3】We can find the topic in the paragraph in the passage ___________.

A．first

B．second

C．third

D．last

24、Learning English is not an easy job. Almost every student sometimes asks q【1】 like these: Can I really learn English well? Can I really learn it well e【2】 to talk with others?

The answer is yes. From some studies, we know that almost anyone can learn a foreign l【3】 well if he or she wants to. Some people might learn it f【4】 and some might learn it slower. Some might learn it easily and some with difficulty. But anyone can learn it well if he or she has the right ways.

Many students have their own special ways in l【5】 English. The following are some examples.

Han Mei gets up early every morning and the first thing she does is to l【6】 to an English radio program（节目）. This has really helped improve her English in listening.

Lin Tao often p【7】 speaking English in class. At first he was very nervous when he was asked to speak. After trying several times, he found it was not as d【8】 as he thought. He is more active and now he speaks English b【9】 of all his classmates.

Wang Bin likes to watch American m【10】. He will watch it many times if it is a good film. And he also likes to read English aloud.
