举一反三
Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!
Parapsychologists (灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist at the University of Kentucky, performed two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind a two way mirror in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t. and they were no better at telling when they were stared at than if they had just guessed.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
小题1:The purpose of the two experiments is to                                 .
A.explain when people can have a sixth sense
B.show how people act while being watched in the lab
C.study whether humans can sense when they are stared at
D.prove why humans have a sixth sense
小题2:In the first experiment, the subjects                             .
A.were not told that they would be stared at
B.lost their sense when they were stared at
C.were not sure when the would be stared at
D.were uncomfortable when they were stared at
小题3:What can be learned from the passage?
A.People are born with a sixth sense.
B.The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.
C.The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D.People have a sixth sense in public places.

While in Banff, make time for a walk around town. A special treat is to go up the mountainside on the Banff Gondola for a surprising view of the valley below. Here is The Pines, whose cook has developed a special way of mixing foreign food such as caribou, wild boar, and reindeer with surprising sauces.
Best time to visit is during the off-season, from early May to mid-June, or in October. This way you can avoid sharing the highway with mobile homes which can be pulled by cars. But whatever the season, take some lunch with you from Banff, because there are only a few food stops on the road.
Forty minutes north of Banff, side by side with the Banff National Park, sits world-famous Lake Louise. This surprisingly small body of water is attractive with towering mountains around it. Glaciers, huge masses of ice, moving very slowly against rocks, produce what is called glacier rock flour, making its water dark to see. It is worth taking a walk around the grounds of the Chateau Lake Louise, another beauty, proud of its early 20th century history.
Back on the road, and it’s time to continue north past the astonishing Columbia Icefield, then turn off the highway and take the short road to the base of the Athabaska Glacier. You can rent ice cleats (夹板) and do some climbing or do a more pleasant snowmobile tour. Either way, you can enjoy endless beautiful sights.
Finally you’ll reach Jasper, the usual turning around the place for the Banff-Jasper loop (回路). It’s worth riding the Jasper Skytram, and be sure to visit the wonderful Jasper Park Lodge, also dating back to the 1920s. If you can have lunch there, do it. The restaurant has an adventurous menu and their wine list would put a smile on any visitor’s face.
小题1:According the passage, The Pines is a                                .
A.place in which you can see many mobile homes
B.mountain where you can get a good view of the valley
C.town which happens to be near the Banff National Park
D.restaurant where you can ask for some special kinds of food
小题2:What will probably happen when visitors come at the end of June?
A.They may have trouble finding a restaurant.
B.They may come across traffic jams.
C.They may travel more easily with cars.
D.They may do much more sightseeing.
小题3:Similar to the Chateau Lake Louise,                           .
A.the Banff National Park is to the west of Banff
B.the Columbia Icefield lies between Lake Louise and the Banff National Park
C.the Jasper Skytram has a history of more than 80 years
D.the Jasper Park Lodge was built in the 1920s
小题4:Besides the beautiful sights in Jasper Park Lodge, visitors to Jasper can enjoy themselves by                                   .
A.taking the Jasper Skytram and eating in the restaurant
B.taking the Banff-Jasper loop and Jasper Skytram
C.having a lot of food to order in the restaurant
D.taking the Jasper Skytram back to Banff

There are hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child. And it’s a good thing, too — kids need this kind of protection and assistance, because they aren’t mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
But eventually, kids grow up and become teens. It’s totally normal for teens to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life; it’s what prepares them for adulthood. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes his or her own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting themselves to it.
In most families, it’s this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. Teens get angry because they feel parents don’t respect them and aren’t giving them space to do what they like, and parents get angry because they aren’t used to not being in control or they disagree with the teens’ decisions.
It’s easy for feelings to get very hurt when there are conflicts like these. And more complicated issues can cause even bigger arguments, because your parents will always be intent on protecting you and keeping you safe, no matter how old you are.
The good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teens have a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, concentrate on communicating with your parents as best you can.
Sometimes this can feel impossible — like they just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents, and you may be able to reach a compromise that makes everyone happy. Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that in most cases, they can relate to what you’re going through.
小题1:Why do parents always want to control their children?
A.They are afraid to lose their children.
B.They want to protect their children.
C.They don’t believe the ability of their children.
D.They can’t accept their children are growing.
小题2: What does the underlined word “lessen” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.disappear.B.increase.
C.strengthen.D.decrease.
小题3:The author suggested that teenagers ____.
A.fight with their parents bravely for their rights
B.obey their parents without any doubt
C.communicate with their parents actively
D.persuade their parents in as many ways as possible
小题4: It can be inferred from the passage that ____.
A.most parents will give in while fighting with their children
B.the conflict between parents and teenagers can be solved
C.the only way for teens to get freedom is to leave home
D.only few parents do well in facing the growth of their children

Sooner or later, many families will face the situation of moving. The experience can be very bad for kids, who may not be a part of the decision to move and may not understand it. You can take steps to make the whole process (过程) easier for everyone.
Many kids like to stay in familiar places. So as you consider a move, weigh the benefits (好处) of that change against the comfort that neighborhood, school, and social life give your kids. If your family has recently dealt with a big life change, such as death, you may want to put off a move to give your children time to accept the fact.
The decision to move may be out of your hands, perhaps because of a new job or money problems. Even if you’re not happy about the move, try to keep a positive (积极的) attitude to it. During the move, a parent’s attitude can greatly influence kids.
No matter what the results are, the most important way to prepare kids to move is to talk about it. Try to give your children as much information about the move as possible. You can ask kids to join in the planning such as house-hunting or the search for a new school. This can make the change feel less like it’s being forced (被迫) on them. If you’re moving across town, try to take your children to visit the new house and the new neighborhood.
A move can have many problems, but good things also come from this kind of change. Your family might grow closer and you may learn more about each other by going through it together.
小题1:According to the text, a move can be a bad experience for kids because ________.
A.they may feel they’re forced to do soB.they often feel lonely in a new school
C.they don’t like their busy parentsD.they are tired of the moving process
小题2:In which situation does the author advise to put off a move?
A.The child’s birthday is coming.B.A family member has died.
C.The new neighborhood isn’t safe.D.The parents have money problems.
小题3:Which is the most important when making the move easier for children?
A.Allowing them to choose a school by themselves.
B.Trying not to show them the bad parts of a move.
C.Offering them as much information as possible.
D.Promising to choose a new house with them.
小题4:The author wrote this text mainly to tell us ________.
A.what we should do before a move
B.how to prepare children for a move
C.how a move can change the family
D.why parents should talk to children often
