    Marriages improve after children grow up and move out,according to an academic study,which suggests
an "empty nest" is not always a bad thing.
    Popular wisdom has it that parents' relationships may suffer once their young fly the coop,because they
feel they have lost their purpose in life.However,a new study by researchers at the University of California,
Berkeley,has found that many couples actually feel happier when their children leave home because they
are able to enjoy spending time together.
    In total,123 American mothers born in the 1930s were tracked for 18 years and asked to rate their
satisfaction levels shortly after marrying,when they were bringing up babies,once their children reached
their teenage years and finally at age 61,when almost all had "empty nests".
    Although not all said they were happier in general,most claimed their marriages had improved since their
children had left home.Researchers believe this is not just because the spouses were spending more time
together,but because they were able to enjoy each other's company more.
    One of the participants in the study,which is published in the journal Psychological Science,said:"Once
the kids grow up...there's some of that stress removed...that responsibility removed,so things are a little
more relaxed."
    Psychologist Sara Gorchoff,who carried out the investigation,said:"The takehome message for couples
with young children is 'hang in there'." Her coauthor Oliver John added:"Don't wait until your kids leave
home to schedule quality time with your partner."
   However,Dr Dorothy Rowe,from the British Psychological Society,said the effects of living in an "empty
nest" will depend on the parents' relationship with their children."If you're just waiting for them to leave
home so you can get on with your life,then of course you'll be pleased to see them go," she said,"But if
you've built your life around your children you'll be terribly lonely.For some parents,their world falls apart
when their children leave."
1.It is commonly believed that________.
A.marriages improve after children leave home
B.a(chǎn)n "empty nest" is always a happy thing
C.parents' relationships may suffer once their young grow up and move out
D.parents will be pleased after their children leave home
2.When did many couples feel happier according to the study?
A.At age 61,when almost all had "empty nests".
B.Shortly after marrying.
C.Once their children reached their teenage years.
D.When they were bringing up babies.
3.Marriages improve after children fly the coop not because______.
A.many couples are able to spend time together
B.many couples are able to enjoy each other's company
C.things are a little more relaxed
D.many couples needn't work at all
4.The author of the passage tends to agree that________.
A.parents should build their life around their kids
B.parents should schedule quality time with each other before kids leave home
C.parents' relationship with their kids has no effect on marriages at all
D.parents should be pleased to see their kids leave home

閱讀理解。
     The new iPhone 3G should please everyone. Its look and feel are only slightly improved,
but a faster network loads Web pages more quickly, true GPS functionality allows it to easily
find places nearby, and the new $199 price (down from $400) makes it an affordable luxury.
     Before deciding whether to buy, however, make sure you can actually take advantage of
the iPhone 3G's high-speed data network. 3G stands for third-generation, which in non-geek
speak translates to Web pages and mail messages that, ideally, load about three times faster
than on the original iPhone. Even better, 3G coverage enables you to make a phone call and
surf the Web at the same time. That's great, if you live or work in a place where the 3G
network of AT&T(美國電話電報(bào)公司) (the sole wireless carrier of the iPhone) is active.
That's not so great in cities like New York where AT&T's cellular coverage is awful. As one
of my colleagues in New York City, who bought the original iPhone, commented, "It's just
a toy. You can't make phone calls on it, so I carry my Verizon phone with me all the time."
     The real fun begins when you tap on the icon called "App Store" and start browsing the
hundreds of add-on applications that have been developed just for the iPhone. You'll find
tons of games (I like JirboBreak, a free game inspired by the Atari classic Breakout) and
mobile versions of popular websites like Pandora, Facebook, MySpace and the New York
Times. Most apps will cost you, but the vast majority are $9.99 or less. The apps work on
the old iPhones too, but you'll enjoy them a lot more on the iPhone 3G because many of the
programs, including Yelp (local business reviews), Whrrl (mobile social networking) and
UrbanSpoon (restaurant reviews), use your exact location - provided by the iPhone 3G's
GPS chip - to make recommendations. The apps also load much faster over the 3G network.
1. The new iPhone 3G has following features except that _______
A. It looks and feels better
B. It has a faster network
C. It is easy to locate a place
D. It is too expensive for people to buy
2. Why do one of my colleagues carry Verizon phone with him all the time? ______.
A. Because iPhone 3G is just a toy
B. Because he prefers Verizon phone better.
C. Because AT&T's cellular coverage is terrible there
D. Because Verizon phone enables him make a phone call and surf the Web at the same time
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage. ____.
A. App Store will offer you great fun.
B. many apps have been developed for the iPhone.
C. Most apps are very expensive.
D. Pandora, Facebook, MySpace and the New York Times are popular websites.
4. From the passage we know that the attitude of the author toward iPhone 3G is _____.
A. doubtful
B. appreciative
C. optimistic
D. pessimistic

     It is common and usual to see people freak out when they face challenges in their life. We all pass in
different life problems and challenges. No one is free of life problems. Only a dead man faces no
problem. As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere.
     How do you face problems and challenges in your life? Problems and challenges are the building
blocks of your personality. They make you who you are. Besides, whether what happened in your life
builds or destructs you depends on how you look at it. If you take your problems as troubles, they will
be troubles and may cause destruction. If you take them as constructive tools, you are going to be built
up on them.
     Problems are everywhere. No one can avoid them. And they are good too. They open up a different
look and opportunity if you are willing to see. When you face troubles, do not frustrate or freak out. Just
cool yourself to think in a different direction. Think in a positive way. Every problem has its own good as
well as bad sides. Focus on the good one. Look at the bright side.
     Besides, there is always a good person, perhaps your mom or dad, or one of your friends, right
beside you who can turn everything in to your best if you are willing to turn to them. No matter what
happens, they will be there to help you. Trust them and they will never let you down. All you need to
know is that you are loved wherever you are.

閱讀表達(dá)
閱讀下面的短文,并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題(請注意問題后的字?jǐn)?shù)要求).
 
     (1)Our character, basically, is a mixture of our habits. "Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action,
reap a habit;________, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny (命運(yùn))," the maxim goes.
     (2)Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are  often unconscious patterns, they
constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
     (3)As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, "Habits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it
everyday and soon it cannot be broken." I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I
know habits can be learned and unlearned. But we also know it isn't a quick fix. It involves a process
and a tremendous effort.
     (4)Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first men
walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the
tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first
few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.
     (5)Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit.
Breaking deeply developed habitual tendencies such as procrastination(拖延) , impatience, criticalness,
or selfishness that go against basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower
and a few minor changes in our lives. "Lift off" takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the
gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new situation.
     (6)Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our
habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps
our world together, that keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force,
and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish
effectiveness in our lives.
