11.Should parents ever hit their children?
Research suggests many of us are likely to respond"no",and public support for spanking(打屁股) has been falling over the years.But surverys also show that 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to spanking their child at least once.
I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect,and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And,no,I don't feel I was damaged by it.
Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children.
But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer.
Two years ago,Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive.
Murray Straus,professor at the University of New Hampshire in America,has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers(同等的人).It may be that children with lower IQqs were more likely to get spanked,but the punishment may have been counterpoductive(反作用的) to their mental development,as well.
Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks(用巴掌打) on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit.
Last year,Marjorie Gunnoe,a psychologist at Calvin College,studied teens who have never spanked.There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physi punished.Gunnoe's research suggests they don't turn out any better than those who were sometimes spank.
There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers(脾氣).But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical puishment.

A.they were dissatisfied with her grade

A.a(chǎn)re less aggreesive toward others when they get older

C.benefit from occasional spanking
D.may develop lower IQs than their peer

A.40 percent of children grow up without ever being spanked
B.Children who suffer less physical punishment are better students
C.Occasional open-handed spanking on the bottom are mentally harmful

8.Finding the right school for your child is a process.You will want to read about the school,talk to any friends who are involved in the school and,most important of all,visit the school.
The first step in finding out about Indian Creek is to request an information packet.We will be happy to send you a packet containing a brochure(小冊(cè)子),the fee structure and an application.The packet should answer most of your general questions about the school.
In order to get a true sense of Indian Creek School,you should come for an Admission Tour,which includes a personal meeting focusing on your child,a tour of the building and the classrooms,and a discussion of the curriculum(課程).
This visit is no less important if the child for whom you are seeking admission is a teenager than if he or she is a three-year-old one.Every school has a different"school climate."If you visit two or three schools,you will notice that each"feels"different.You know your child best and you will quickly develop a sense of whether a school is the right match or not.
The initial point of entry for Indian Creek Students is at the pre-kindergarten level for three year olds.
Children must be three years old by August 31st.
We also have major points of entry from grade six to grade nine.At each of these levels,we open new sections and accept students in addition to those moving up from our own lower grades.
There are scattered(零散的) openings available throughout the program due to attrition(學(xué)生流失).Once an opening occurs,students spend a day at ICS,part of which includes admission testing.

64.You can NOT get to know about ICS byD.
A.getting an information packet
B.taking an admission tour
C.a(chǎn)sking friends involved in ICS
D.taking an admission test
65.During the Admission Tour,you canC.
A.having a meeting with the children
B.decide on the design of the classrooms
C.talk with the school about the courses
D.choose the weather suitable for study
66.Which of the following is NOT accepted for ICS when there is no attrition?D

16.A college education is out.of reach for most state and federal prisoners.California'a San Quentin is one of the few prisons in the country that offers college-level courses.
Jody Lewen has run the prison's college program for over a decade and she's the reason that die Prison University Project exists today.When Lewen joined San Quentin's college program in 1999 as a volunteer instructor,it was run by a small volunteer staff with no budget.At that time,she was a graduate student,with plans to return to academic research.But a year later,when the part-time director suddenly quit,Lewen found herself in charge.
Under Lewen's leadership,the Prison University Project has expanded,now offering 20 classes in English,math,social science and Spanish.Three hundred prisoners enroll (入學(xué)) every year,earning college credits which can lead to an associate of arts degree.So far,100 San Quentin prisoners have graduated with associate's degrees and many more have continued their college studies after release.
"This experience really has changed my life.It's given me a lot of tools on how to express myself,"says Charles Spence,who is serving a life sentence in San Quentin."This program is really rare in the prison setting,so I'm really lucky."
Research shows that the more education a prisoner has,the less likely he is to return to prison.Lewen says the chance for those with college degrees back into prison is less than 10 percent.
But the Prison University Project receives no government funding.Lewen would like to see college programs in every prison,but without government support,it's not likely to happen any time soon.In the meantime,there's a long waiting list of San Quentin prisoners who want to enroll in the college program.Some day,Lewen hopes to expand her program,making a college education available for most of prisoners at San Quentin.
66.Which of the following is true of the Prison University Project?C
A.Jody Lewen founded it in 1999.
B.It was supported by the government.
C.Jody took charge of it quite accidentally.
D.It is performed in most prisons in the U.S.
67.Jody Lewen joined in San Quentin's college program toA
A.work as a volunteer teacher                             
B.be a part-time director
C.do some scientific research                             
D.earn her college credits
68.According to the text,Charles Spence might beB
A.a(chǎn) graduate student                                      
B.a(chǎn) San Quentin prisoner
C.a(chǎn) volunteer teacher                                     
D.a(chǎn) prison manager
69.The project is quite meaningful becauseD
A.prisoners have equal rights of education
B.it doesn't need support from the government
C.the society is more concerned about prisoners
D.it reduces the chance for prisoners back in prison
70.We learn from the last paragraph that the problem for the Project isD    A.there are fewer and fewer volunteer teachers
B.more and more prisoners want to enroll
C.too many prisoners are housed at San Quentin
D.it lacks financial support from the government.

1.61.E 
Nowadays.millions of people misuse and even overuse pain medications and other drugs.Research by the American National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA,1999)shows that around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically.
62.C
NIDA views medications as a powerful force for good in the contemporary world.They reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and disease.They make it possible for doctors to perform complicated surgery to save lives.Many people afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active,contributing citizens.NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drugs use them in a responsible manner.
63.A
Nevertheless,overuse of drugs such as opioids,central nervous system (CNS) depressants and stimulants does lead to harmful reliance in some people and is therefore becoming a serious public health concern.Although this abuse affects many people worldwide,particular trends of concern to the medical profession in the US appear among older adults,teenagers and women.
64.F
Though it may be a surprise to many,the misuse of medications may be the most common form of drug abuse among the elderly.Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University,North Carolina states that although the elderly represent about 13% of the US population,those aged 65 and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs.People in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general population and have poorer compliance with instruction for use.In another study of elderly patients admitted to treatment programs,70% were women who had overused medicines.
65.D
Unfortunately,this trend among women does not only affect those aged over 65.In general,among women and men who are using either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative,women are twice as likely to become addicted.In addition,statistics compiled for 12-17 year olds show that teenage girls are more likely than teenage boys to begin overusing psychotherapeutic medication such as painkillers,tranquillizers,stimulants and sedatives.

A.Drug overuse and its consequence
B.The problem of drug overuse in America
C.Benefits of medicine and its wise use
D Female drug overuse with reference to that of males
E Misuse of medicine among the young generation
F.Improper use of medicine among senior citizens.
