A [2015 .四川新津中學(xué)高三一診] Moral science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect. Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality is not a science, strictly speaking. It is too much of a social phenomenon, and also has too much of the personal and subjective things mixed within. Besides, morali?ty itself changes with generations. So it is impossible to be defined in a textbook.

I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral les?sons, which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness. It had little effect and left no impression on me, though.

If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools, it needs a participatory(參與其中的)approach. When you tell a child about morals, you also have to deal with social norms(規(guī)范)and cultural differences. You have to explain that morality can be subjective, and be able to coexist in soci?ety. You will probably have to refer to the morals of the pres?ent time.

The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him or her what is valued. If a child likes his or her friends, you have to make the child think about why. Once the child no?tices and recognizes goodness in others, he or she is likely to develop it as well.

In fact, children learn most of their morals by watching people around them. They absorb behaviour patterns from teachers and older students. They watch to see what is re?warded and who is punished. They learn on the sports field and through social work. Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact, and watch you sup?port correct values and reward good behaviour.

1.     Which is NOT the reason why moral science is taught in schools but with little effect?

A.     Morality doesn't strictly belong to a science.

B.     Morality is more like a social phenomenon.

C.     Morality can't be written down in textbooks.

D.     Different generations have different moral ideas.

2.     The author describes his own experience of having moral lessons in order to •

A.     explain that telling lies is not moral for little children

B.     advise that people should be rewarded for their good?ness

C.     show that he has no opinions about moral science

D.     prove that moral lessons in schools have little effect

3.     When   you   tell   a   child   about   morals ，   you should

A.     teach him or her to share personal moral ideas with others

B.      tell him or her about social norms and cultural differ?ences

C.      explain that nobody can influence his or her moral ide?as

D.     say that the present morals are likely to be changed

4.     What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A.     The influence of people's behaviour on morals.

B.     The value of teachers' setting a good example.

C.     The best way of teaching children about morals.

D.     The importance of rewarding good behaviour.

A [2015*四川宜賓高三一診] There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favourite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.

    I had always travelled to Malaysia by plane or car, so that was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read The Economist,

   It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johor Bahru was just another city like Sin?gapore City, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.

   From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the wastebasket and decided to join in Mal?aysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.

 The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled in at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beauti?ful. When my uncle waved with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this be?fore. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face lighted up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.

  I looked forward to the return journey. 

1. The author had expected the train trip to be .

 A.      adventurous

B.     pleasant

C.     boring

2.     What touched the author during the train trip?

B.     The friendly country people.

C.     The crowds of people in the streets.

D.     The simple lunch served on the train.

3.     Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word "relish" in Paragraph 2?

A. Dislike.                               B. Enjoy.

C.  Release.                            D. Choose.

When I asked my mother-in-law to select which meals she'd like me to order from the home-delivery menu, she only chose the ones her husband would like. This goes way beyond politeness. She is actually feeling uncomfortable voicing what she wants. She developed the main symptom of Asker's Syn?drome that one's unable to ask for what one wants.

It's not just older women who have this problem. Asker's Syndrome can strike the young. I have single friends who won't ask a man out on a date because they fear being considered too " forward". My five-year-old daughter Violet is showing the early stage of Asker's Syndrome. She's learned that women don't ask, but rather drop hints. She'll say, "Remember last Sunday afternoon we went to the park?" rather than "Can we go to the park?"

Apart from women and girls' problematic relationship with appetite, food and dating, it's widely reported that women are less likely than men to ask for pay rises and pro?motions. Instead, they withdraw, hoping that somebody else will decide they are worthy and make them promoted.

No doubt, many women develop Asker's Syndrome as a defensive measure because they've been labelled as pushy or rude for simply asking for what they want. But in the long term, choosing not to express our desires doesn't serve us well.

It's time to cure ourselves and our girls of Asker's Syn?drome. I don't want to raise a future "burnt chop mother" who denies her wish for food, power and success and any?thing else. I insist that she ask for what she wants directly.

For women in our culture, asking is a skill that we need to learn and practise. And if we all do it* then women asking will become the norm rather than the exception.

A.     introduce the old lady

A.     It often causes problems with appetite and food.

B.     Older women develop more of its symptoms.

C.     More women suffer from it than men in their careers.

A [2015 .湖北八市高三聯(lián)考] Alice's mother died when Alice was five years old. Al?ice, who grew up to be my mother, told me that after her mother's death her family was too poor to even afford to give her a doll.

In December 2012, I had a job at a local bank. One after?noon, we were decorating the tree in the bank lobby(大廳). One of my customers approached me with her beautiful hand?made dolls. I decided to get one for my daughter, Katie, who was almost five years old. Then I had an idea. I asked my customer if she could make me a special doll for my mother-one with grey hair and spectacles (眼鏡)：a grandmother doll. And she gladly agreed.

A friend had told me that his dad who played Santa Claus would be willing to make a visit on Christmas morning to my home to deliver my Katie her presents, so I made some spe?cial arrangements.

Christmas Day arrived at the planned time; so did Santa Claus. Katie was surprised that Santa had come to see her at her own house. As Santa turned to leave, he looked once more into his bag and found one more gift. As he asked who Alice was, my mother, surprised at her name being called, indicated that she in fact was Alice. Santa handed her the gift, with a message card that read:

For Alice ：

I was cleaning out my sleigh(雪橇) be fore my trip this year and came across this package that -was supposed to be delivered on December 25, 1953s The present inside has aged ， but I felt that you might still wish to have it. Many apologies for the lateness of the gift.

                            Love，

                           Santa Claus

My mother's reaction was one of the most deeply emo?tional scenes I have ever seen. She couldn't speak but only hold the doll she had waited for fifty-nine years to receive as tears of joy ran down her cheeks. That doll, given by " San?ta" ,made my mother the happiest "child" that Christmas.
