age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two
feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of
showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them
are clutching (紧握) at one another"s hands for reassurance.
They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new
directions in music. But somehow they all end up huddled (聚在一起) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thusandsuch a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come ou
t of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger_cocoon.
It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his
or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn
from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today"s parents have come to
award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager
who wants to find his or her own path.
But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don"t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it.
Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-with the people who respect you for who you are. That
is the only kind of popularity that really counts.
B．readers to try to be popular with people around
C．parents to try to control and guide their children
D．people to try to understand and respect each other

B．the dazzling music world
C．the parental care and love
D．the popularity wave in the society
B．Instructive.
C．Influential.
D．Authoritative.
and follows his/her own path?
B．He/She loses good friends.
C．He/She faces all kinds of criticism.
D．He/She gains valuable popularity.

baskets are full of sugar, salt and even tissue paper.
While prices are rising so fast, many people are worrying out ways to cut down their expenses. Du Z
henqi, an 80-year-old Beijinger, grows different vegetables in the community yard. But this year, before they turned ripe, they were all picked by his neighbors. “The prices of vegetables have gone up dramatically,” said Du. “So I understand those people and it pleased me to offer them my help.” Du expressed his
sympathy for these who took away his vegetables without permission.
The rise of food price in China has made people with low incomes feel serious financial pressure and
forced them to spend wisely.
A collection of practical money-saving tips is thus becoming increasingly popular among Chinese
citizens. If you search “money-saving strategies” in Baidu, you will find 4.27 million entries in 0.19 seconds. The collection provides tips such as choosing local and seasonal products, avoiding buying vegetables on
rainy or snowy days when higher transport costs increase prices, using websites for purchases, and
planting vegetables on the balcony. Some consider buying in large quantity to stay within a tight budget.
Fei Yuqin, who lives in Shanghai, frequently hurries to a farmers’ market before 6 a.m. to buy large
amounts of vegetables for her family and neighbors. “Instead of buying small amounts, I buy large amounts of vegetables at the market and get a 50-percent discount.”
With these tips, many people have become experts in cutting household expenses. However, financial
pressure caused by the current round of price rising still troubles many Chinese people.

daughters than their plainer counterparts, according to a study．
As parents tend to pass on genes that determine looks, this could result in handsome men becoming
rather thin on the ground． 2 For example, Yasmin Le Bon is signed to the same modelling agency
as daughter Amber, and Jerry Hall"s daughters Elizabeth and Georgia Jagger have both taken to the
catwalk．
Dr Satoshi Kanazawa, of the London School of Economics, analysed data from a survey of 17,000
babies born in Britain in March 1958 and tracked them throughout their lives． 3 When they reached
45, they were asked about the gender of any children they had．
Those rated as attractive were equally likely to have a son or daughter as their first child - but the
unattractive sorts were more likely to have a son． 4
Dr Kanazawa believes that parents tend to produce children who benefit from their own
features． 5 So it pays for attractive women to have daughters．But couples blessed with strength
and aggression rather than looks are better off having boys, as these characteristics are of more use to
males．
children than plain ones．
B．Single girls have always complained that good-looking men are difficult to find．
C．Beauty is of more benefit to a woman than a man．
D．At the age of seven, their attractiveness was rated by their teachers．
E．Put another way, the beautiful women were more likely to have daughters．
F．And it may also explain why many models have daughters who follow in their fascinating footsteps．
G．Famously good-looking parents like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are more likely to have girls than
uglier couples．
research into the history of humans in Britain, a group of leading archaeologists (考古学家) says.In a letter addressed to the justice secretary, Ken Clarke, 40 archaeologists write of their “deep and widespread
concern” about the issue.It centres on the law introduced by the Ministry of Justice in 2008 which requires all human remains unearthed in England and Wales to be reburied within two years, regardless of their age.The decision means scientists have too little time to study bones and other human remains of national and
cultural significance.
"Your current requirement that all archaeologically unearthed human remains should be reburied,
whether after a standard period of two years or further special extension, is contrary to basic principles of archaeological and scientific research and of museum practice." they write.
The law applies to any pieces of bone uncovered at around 400 dig sites, including the remains of 60 or so bodies found at Stonehenge in 2008 that date back to 3,000 BC.Archaeologists have been granted a
temporary extension to give them more time, but eventually the bones will have to be returned to the
ground.
The arrangements may result in the waste of future discoveries at sites such as Happisburgh in Norfolk, where digging is continuing after the discovery of stone tools made by early humans 950,000 years ago.If
human remains were found at Happisburgh, they would be the oldest in northern Europe and the first
indication of what this species was.Under the current practice of the law those remains would have to be
reburied and effectively destroyed.
Before 2008, guidelines allowed for the proper preservation and study of bones of sufficient age and
historical interest, while the Burial Act 1857 applied to more recent remains.The Ministry of Justice
assured archaeologist two years ago that the law was temporary, but has so far failed to revise it.
Mike Parker Pearson, an archaeologist at Sheffield University, said: "Archaeologists have been
extremely patient because we were led to believe the ministry was sorting out this problem, but we feel that we cannot wait any longer."
The ministry has no guidelines on where or how remai
ns should be reburied, or on what records should be kept.1．According to the passage, scientists are unhappy with the law mainly because _____.
A．it is only a temporary measure on the human remains
B．it is unreasonable and thus destructive to scientific research
C．it was introduced by the government without their knowledge
D．it is vague about where and how to rebury human remains
2．Which of the following statements is true according to the pa
ssage?A．Temporary extension of two years will guarantee scientists enough time.
B．Human remains of the oldest species were dug out at Happisburgh.
C．Human remains will have to be reburi
ed despite the extension of time.D．Scientists have been warned that the law can hardly be changed.
3．What can be inferred about the British law governing human remains?
A．The Ministry of Justice did not intend it to protect human remains.
B．The Burial Act 1857 only applied to remains uncovered before 1857.
C．The law on human remains hasn"t changed in recent decades.
D．The Ministry of Justice has not done enough about the law.
4．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A．New discoveries should be reburied, the government demands
B．Research time should be extended, scientists require
C．Law on human remains needs thorough discussion, authorities say
D．Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archaeologists warn
