While the other kids seemed excited about celebrating the end-of-term party by playing games and sharing treats, Jeremy hated the very idea of the gathering.
Afraid to raise the pressure too high, I decided to contribute something that was easy to purchase on the walk to school.
Off we went the day of the party, approaching his school as if nothing was planned. I reminded him of our need to make a purchase, entered his favorite shop, and asked him to select the ripest bunch of grapes. He shot me an anxious look and insisted none of his classmates ever be able to notice he had something to bring to the party. My vision of a successful parenting method, resulting in delivering a sociable child to his school, diverted（转移）sharply from reality.
Back on route, I did my best to hide the sinking feeling of fear. How could I possibly drop him off and then walk into my own classroom to teach a successful class?
My next move was born in the heat of the moment. I said a quick goodbye at the front gate and rushed to his classroom through the emergency exit. I managed to inform his teacher about the grapes in the backpack and be out of the classroom before I could be spied by my son.
So, what happened on that June day? His teacher, a caring educator, worked wonders. My son and I still laugh about the way Mr. B started the day with an unusual question, “Does anyone have any grapes?” While Jeremy admits feeling a bit uncomfortable, the words encouraged him to takeout the fruit. Because of the support he received, he remembers that day with pride for his courage.
25. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “vision” in Paragraph 3?A. Imagination. B. Research. C. Understanding. D. Use.
26. How did the author feel when she left the shop?
A. Grateful. B. Satisfied. C. Worried. D. Regretful. 27. Why did the author hurry to her son’s classroom? A. She went there to give her lesson. B. She went to ask the teacher for help.
C. She was afraid of her son being punished. D. She was invited to take part in the celebration. 28. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The teacher inspired Jeremy to share grapes. B. Jeremy prepared for the coming party. C. The author taught Jeremy to select goods. D. The author helped Jeremy to become sociable.

While your pet fish may appear to be unaware of your presence, chances are that it knows you extremely well and can probably even identify you from a crowd of human faces!
To test if this was accurate, some scientists decided to study archerfish(喷水鱼). These animals don’t have a sophisticated(复杂的) brain that is necessary to recognize human faces. They began by presenting four archerfish with images of two human faces. Initially, the fish spit at both. However, they soon learned spitting water at the one selected by the researchers earned them a food treat. After that, they focused primarily on that image. The researchers then took the experiment one step further by introducing 44 other human faces to the mix.
To the researcher’s astonishment, the trained archerfish were able to recall the learned image almost 81% of the time. And this accuracy improved to 86% when the researchers made the identification even harder, by replacing the colored photos with a set of black and white images and hiding the shape of the head.
The results of the study suggest that though having tiny brains, archerfish may have developed high visual discrimination abilities. While it is contrary to the previous theory that a sophisticated brain is necessary to recognize human faces, the researchers believe they do not recognize faces by recalling complex facial information like gender and identity, but more likely by discriminating between detailed patterns. Even so, the fact that these archerfish could“ remember” those faces proves that they have an impressive memory for details that lasts much longer than the originally- thought 3 seconds!
This is not the first time researchers have realized how “smart” fish are. Previous studies have shown that fish can recognize those fish they have “socialized” with previously, and evener call complex 3D maps of their surroundings.
29. What encouraged archerfish to spit at the selected photo?
A. A reward. B. Another fish. C. The music. D. The color. 30. Why did the researchers test the fish with black and white images? A. To help fish recognize more easily. B. To prove fish can tell different colors. C. To test whether fish like white or black.
D. To increase the difficulty of the identification. 31. How can archerfish recognize faces? A. With a sophisticated brain.
B. Through a 3-second memory.
C. By distinguishing detailed patterns.
D. By recalling people’s facial information. 32. What can we infer from the text? A. Fish are social animals.
B. The results are beyond people’s belief.
C. Fish have the ability to tell different shapes. D. Fish are proved to be clever for the first time. D
According to a study conducted in 2010, about 39% companies blocked employees access to Facebook. They think some employees spend their entire day sitting glued to Facebook, up dating and commenting, which has a negative effect on their work. However, their banning isn’t widely accepted. Some reasons are listed why employees should be allowed access to Facebook.
First, they think it’s essential to take a break after working for hours. Employees may beworking hard to find a particular solution, but cannot come up with anything. Browsing(浏览)through Facebook can help them get inspired to find solutions in a different way and be successfulat it.
Blocking access to Facebook means that the employer doesn’t trust the employees. People are dissatisfied with the company if they’re not allowed access to Facebook. In order to keep people productive, it’s essential that they are kept happy. Therefore, allowing access to Facebook means that the employees are given a certain amount of freedom and bear responsibility for their actions.
Today many companies have pages on Facebook which they use for spreading news and something about products. If Facebook pages are blocked in an office, how will employees like or share something from the company page? Employees can also interact with each other through Facebook. It creates a sense of bonding and they get along well with each other. Keeping in touch through Facebook helps in strengthening their relations.
As far as I’m concerned, whether an organization should ban Facebook depends largely onfactors like its culture, type of work, Internet policy, business goals, etc. As far as the employees are concerned, most of them will be in support of allowing access to Facebook. With the advantages, there are potential disadvantages and the organization should always give preference to the option which will work in its best interest. 33. What does the author want to say in Paragraph 3?
A. Allowing access to Facebook is helpful in building trust. B. Employees are not happy without access to Facebook. C. Blocking access to Facebook disables employees. D. More freedom should be given to employees. 34. What use do many companies make of Facebook? A. Communicating with other companies. B. Selling their products online. C. Promoting their reputation.
D. Strengthening employees’ relations.
35. What advice does the author give to those who ban Facebook? A. Making Internet policy. B. Developing their culture.
