Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who the true winners of a game were.

Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test---unless the person cheats again.

People lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and may be at home, too.

Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating, even when there seems to be a good reason for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.

If you were sick or upset about something the night before the day and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with you parents about how to balance swimming and school.

A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions(解決辦法) together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.

1.The author thinks that when kids cheat in class, ______.

A. it is unfair to other people.

B. it does harm to their health.

C. teachers should punish them.

D. teachers shouldn’t stop them at once.

2.Some students like cheating mainly because______.

A. the material in the test is very difficult.

B. they want to do better than the others.

C. cheating can make hard things seem very easy.

D. they have little time to study their lessons.

3.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.

A. some kids can’t pass the test without cheating

B. why kids cheat in the test.

C. cheating isn’t a good idea.

D. some kids don’t spend the time studying.

4.We can learn from the passage _______.

A. cheaters are often thought highly of

B. people show no respect for those who cheat.

C. parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble.

D. kids cheat in the test because of swim practice.

7．A new study finds that young females in one group of African chimps（黑猩猩） use sticks as dolls more than their male peers（同齡） do，often treating pieces of wood like a mother chimp caring for a baby．In human cultures around the world，girls play with dolls and pretend that the toys are babies far more than boys do．
Chimp observations，collected over 14 years of field work with the Kanyawara chimp community in Kibale National Park in Ugandan，provide the first evidence of a nonhuman animal in the wild that exhibits sex differences in how it plays．This finding supports an argument that biology as well as society underlies boys'and girls'different toy preferences．
Stick play occurred most commonly between ages 3 and 9．Females spent a lot more time carrying sticks than males did．Young male chimps occasionally used sticks to mimic（模仿） chi ldcare．"Far more often，they fought with sticks，an infrequent behavior among females，"say Sonya Kahlenberg of Bates College in Lewiston，Maine，and Richard Wrangham of Harvard University．
"Biological differences between the sexes make female chimps more receptive to stick-mothering than males，"says Wrangham．
Consistent with reported cultural traditions among adult chimps，Kanyawara youngsters learned from each other to p lay with sticks as if caring for babies．Stick play among young chimps showed no evidence of being directly influenced by older chimps．Child-bearing females never played with sticks and thus didn't model such behavior for younger chimps．
Young females carried sticks for anywhere from a few minutes to several hours．They often rested in nests with their sticks，sometimes playing with them much as chimp mothe rs play with their babies though they didn't get any form of teaching from the adults．

32．What does a stick seem like to a young female chimp who plays with it？C
A．A doll．B．A mother．C．A baby．D．A toy．
33．We can see from the text that young female chimpsD．
A．often carry sticks with males      B．a(chǎn)lways carry sticks with males
C．never use sticks in fighting        D．seldom use sticks in fighting
34．From whom do the young chimps pick up the stick play behavior？A
A．From each other．    B．From older chimps．
C．From their mothers．D．From male chimps．
35．What does the text mainly tell us about young chimps'stick play？B
A．The types of stick play and social influence．
B．The sex differences and social influence．
C．The sex differences and age differences．
D．The ways of stick play and age differences．

5．In general，people talk about two groups of colors：warm colors and cool colors．Researchers in psychology think that there are also two groups of people：people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors．
The warm colors are red，orange and yellow．Where there are warm colors and a lot of light，people usually want to be active．People think that red，for example，is exciting．Sociable people，those who like to be with others，like red．The cool colors are green，blue and violet．These colors，unlike warm colors，are relaxing．Where there are cool colors，people are usually quiet．People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue．
Red may be exciting，but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors．He suggests that a warm color，such as red or orange is a good color for a living room or restaurant．People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly．Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly．Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool．
However，almost everyone agrees that red，orange，and yellow are warm and that green，blue，and violet are cool．Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days．Because in the north the sun is higher during summer，the hot summer sunlight appears yellow．

28．Which of the following colors belong to cool colors？A
A．Blue，violet   B．Yellow，green   C．Black，blue．D．Brown，white
29．Which of the following statements is not true？C
A．Sociable people like warm colors．
B．Warm colors can make people excited．
C．People who like to be with others don't like red．
D．Where there are warm colors，people want to be active．
30．Which is the right color for different rooms？B
A．Red or orange for offices．B．Orange for dining rooms．
C．Blue for bedrooms．D．Red for studies
31．Which of the following is the best title for the passage？D
A．Two groups of colours        B．Cool colours
C．Warm colours                      D．Colours and people．
