14、ut what the weather is going to he, most people go straight to the radio, television or newspaper to get an expert weather forecast. But if you know what to look for, you can use your own senses to make weather predictions.There are many signs which can help you. For example, in fair weather the air

15、 pressure is generally high. The air is still and often full of dust. Faraway objects may look hazy. But when a storm is brewing, the pressure drops and you are often able to see things more clearly. Sailors took note of this long ago and came up with a saying “The farther the sight, the nearer the

16、rain.“Your sense of smell can also help you detect weather changes. Just before it rains, odors become stronger. This is because odors are repressed in a fair, high-pressure center. When a bad weather low moves in, air pressure lessens and odors are released.You can also hear an approaching storm. S

17、ounds bounce off heavy storm clouds and return to earth with increased force. An old saying describes it this way: “Sounds traveling far and wide, a storm day will betide.“And dont scoff if your grandmother says she can feel a storm coming. It is commonly known that many people feel pains in their b

At the same time, there is no question that social class is important factor in how children are raised and the kin

22、d of adults that children become. Regarding social class, sociologists have found that parents socialize their children into the behaviors and norms of their work worlds. Members of the working class are closely supervised and are expected to follow explicit rules at their jobs. If they do not follo

23、w the precise rules and do as they are told, they will not keep their jobs. Their experience influences how they deal with their children. As a result, their concern is less with their childrens motivations and more with their childrens outward conformity. Thus they are more apt to use physical puni

24、shment in managing their children. On the other hand, middle-class parents, who are expected to take more initiative on the job, are more concerned that their children develop curiosity, self-expression, and self-control. They are also more likely to withdraw privileges or affection than to use phys

27、he parents and their childrens rearingB. the similarities between working class and middle class parentsC. the differences between children of working class and the ones of middle classD. the relation between working class and middle class in their working places（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.七、Passage Three(总题数：

Livestock gaze on about 40 percent of the United States land area.Cattle provide meat, hides and dairy products. Bee

29、f and dairy cattle account for about a third of all farm income in the U.S. Farms in the Midwest and sprawling ranches in the West raise most of the countrys beef cattle.

30、sota, Wisconsin and Iowa sell most of their milk to companies that make butter, cheese and evaporated milk.Hogs grow rapidly and provide meat and materials used to make many products.

35、the beat. Everyone became tense and quiet as the number of taps neared the correct answer to the horse trainers question. After the final tap, the horse paused, seemed to look around and stopped. The crowd went wild!The horses name was Clever Hans, the Educated Horse, and was featured in a vaudevill

36、e (杂耍) act in the early 1900s, in Europe. When asked a complicated mathematical question by his owner, Clever Hans would tap out the correct answer with his hooves. For example, if the answer was sixty-eight, Hans would tap out six with his left hoof and eight with his right hoof. Even more remarkab

37、le, the owner would leave the room after asking the question, so there could be no secret signal between owner and horse. A mere animal seemed to be accomplishing a highly technical skill of mans!It wasnt until years later that the secret of the trick was revealed. The owner had trained Clever Hans

38、to respond to slight signals. The horse became so sensitive that he learned when to stop from the crowds reaction. Members of the audience would start involuntarily, or give some unconscious signal, when Hans reached the right answer. Modern scientists now warn against the Clever Hans syndrome (综合征)

Well, pine trees are the quickest growing trees, but still, they take twenty years to reach a size suitable

42、for cutting and harvesting. An oak takes about sixty years to grow to a good size. A redwood may take hundreds of years.Lumber companies, which make their money on trees, depend on those that grow quickly. Therefore, they are always looking for methods to make trees grow faster. So far, the secret t

43、o fast growing trees seems to lie in “super-seeds.“ These are seeds that are gathered from the quickest growing trees in a forest. One company searched 100,000 acres of trees and selected the seeds from just fifteen trees. These two ounces of seed were enough to plant several hundred new trees. Even

44、tually, when these trees have grown, seeds will again be taken only from the fastest growing trees of crop. This process of artificial selection will yield, in the future, a super-tree that will grow in half the time it takes normal trees to develop.Unfortunately, it takes a long time for a plan lik

45、e this to reach its goal. The Weyerhauser Lumber Corporation, which started its first collection of seed in 1958, is just now beginning to harvest the super-seeds of the first generation of the faster growing trees.（分数：12.00）(1).This selection centers on _.A. the life span of trees B. the age of red
