10、题 2 分, 满分 24 分） AAs a senior, my future is always on my mind. To be exact, thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test. Because of this, words of wisdom are a source of comfort. Steve Jobs gave a speech to Stanfords graduating c

11、lass in 2005 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.It wasnt always like that, though. It started when I became a junior, when college came into view. Its the first big step to making your life your 4own. So when Jobs discussed his life as a student, some fears

12、were eased. He, too, felt the need to attend college to make something of himself. He faced what many are extremely afraid of: uncertainty. His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important. His story had a happy ending, of course, since he certai

13、nly turned out well. This doesnt mean that students shouldnt attend college, but rather that they shouldnt worry so much. Youll get where you need to go, even if your path is a bit more winding（蜿蜒的）than youd like.Jobs talked about the hardships in his work. His love of his work helped him carry on a

14、nd he got where he was meant to be, which restates the point: dont panic.One particular part of his speech stayed with me. Steve Jobs quoted（引用）the saying “Stay hungry, stay foolish” and it has become my motto. Staying foolish is realizing that you are still a fool, no matter how much youve learned

15、or experienced. There is always more to explore. Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.Steve Jobss level of success is attainable, and I aim to prove that. With the will power to go into the world living every day like its my last and allowing the future

16、 to take care of itself, I will do great things. In the last moments of my life, Ill be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.21.

19、bs D. an experience of a speechBFor many years theres been a debate about rewarding our children. Does it work? Is it effective?Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward. Punishment is given out in much the same way,

20、but its used when certain standards of performance, behavior, etc. have not been met. Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment, and work harder when promised a valuable reward. The problem is what happens when you arent around. To develop responsible, self-disciplined(自律)

21、kids, parents need to promote certain ideas. One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in and helps in your family. Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so. When a task is for a worthy cause (our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clea

22、n it), this message can have a big impact. This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility. When our children develop this responsibility, theyll be more disciplined, and theyll control their emotions better. When we give rewards to our kids, we reduce the sense of responsibility. We

23、also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard, but who arent likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them. “Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while, but they cannot change the person who engages in the behavior,” said Alfie Ko

24、hn, author of 6Punished by Rewards. “Good values have to be grown from the inside out.” Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a life time. The real rewards that your children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding w

25、orld that waits for thema world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline responsibility. So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself, and let your kids find their own rewards. 25. According to the passage, when children are threatened with punishment, _.A. they may lose interest i

28、 children?C. When should parents reward their children?来D. What can parents reward their children with?CIt has long been believed that drinking green tea is good for the memory. Now researchers have discovered how the chemical properties(特性) of Chinas favorite drink affect the generation of brain ce

29、lls, providing benefits for memory and spatial(空间的 ) learning. “There has been plenty of scientific 7attention on its use in helping prevent cardiovascular(心血管) diseases, but now there is evidence that its chemical properties may affect cellular mechanisms(细胞结构) in the brain,” said Professor Yun Bai

30、. Professor Bais team focused on the organic chemical EGCG, a key property of green tea. The team believed it can also have a beneficial effect against age-related degenerative(退化的) diseases. “We proposed that EGCG can improve learning by affecting the generation of neuron cells, a process known as

31、neurogenesis,” said Bai. “We focused our research on the hippocampus, the part of the brain which processes information from short-term to long-term memory.” The team found that EGCG increases the production of neural progenitor cells, which can adapt, or differentiate, into various types of cells.

32、The team then used laboratory mice to discover if this increased cell production gave an advantage to memory or spatial learning. “We ran tests on two groups of mice, one which had drunk EGCG and a control group,” said Bai. “First the mice were trained for three days to find a visible platform in th

33、eir maze(迷宫). Then they were trained for seven days to find a hidden platform.”The team found that the EGCG treated mice required less time to find the hidden platform. Overall the results showed that EGCG promotes learning and memory by improving object recognition and spatial memory. “We have show

34、n that the organic chemical EGCG acts directly to increase the production of neural progenitor cells, both in glass tests and in mice,” concluded Bai. “This helps us to understand the potential(潜能) for EGCG, and green tea which contains it, to help treat degenerative diseases and memory loss.”29.
