Read the passage and choose the best answers.
Who made decisions for you when you were a kid Yes, your parents. As a kid, your parents made decisions about everything from the breakfast you had in the morning to the pajamas you wore at night. And it's good because kids aren't old enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
But finally, kids grow up and become teens. And part of being a teen is developing your own identity(身份)—one that is separate from your parents. 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, your parents may have difficulties adjusting(调整).They aren't used to the new you yet.
In most families, this kind of change can cause a lot of fights between teens and parents. You want to cover your walls with posters. They don't understand why you don't like your kiddie wallpaper anymore. You think it's OK to hang out at the mall after school, while they would rather you played a sport.
Clashes like these are very common 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 disagree with the teen's decisions. The basic reason is that your parents will always try to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are.
1.According to the passage, the kids may
A.make careful decisions alone
B.stop depending on their parents
C.decide things by their parents
D.have their own ideas and values
2.The underlined word" Clashes" in Paragraph 5 means
A.choices B.praises C.fights D.discussions
3.The last paragraph mainly talks about_
A.the decisions teens and parents make
B.the causes of fights between teens and parents
C.the choices teens and parents make
D.the changes teens and parents have

A few years ago, I volunteered as a Reading Mom in a primary school. When I saw Ronny for the first time, he was just like any other kid in his class. However, he usually arrived at school wearing old clothes. On the day when it was Ronny's turn to read, he sat very close to me. I watched his fingers move slowly under each letter as he tried to speak out "Bud the Sub". It sounded more like "Baw Daw Saw "when he said it because of his difficulty with the alphabet(字母).
The year passed quickly and Ronny had made progress(进步) but he was still below the level of grade. A few weeks before the school year ended, I held an award ceremony(颁奖仪式). I had gifts and certificates( 证书) for everyone. It took me a while to think about which Ronny fitted. I believed the gift could cheer him up. I finally decided on "The Most Progressive Reader". I showed his certificate and gave him a book.
A few days later, I saw Ronny reading the book when I went back to the school. His teacher said, "He hasn't put that book down. That's the first book he's ever owned." Fighting back tears, I came near Ronny and asked, "Will you read me your book, Ronny " He nodded. And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more smoothly than I'd ever thought. Then Ronny closed his book and said, "Good book." At that moment, I knew I needed to do what a writer should do—care children and make them excellent.

These days, we often type(打字) on a phone or computer. However, a new study shows that writing by hand helps people learn and remember things better.
Professor Audrey Meer from Norway did the study. She asked people to wear a hat with sensors (传感器) that could show their brain activity. Their brain became much more active when they were writing by hand than when they were typing.
According to Meer, when you type on a keyboard, you just use one movement for each letter. But handwriting is more complicated——you move the pen across the paper, you see the letters you write and hear the sound you make while writing. These things use more of your senses and make your brain more active.
"It's important to put the brain in a learning state as often as possible,Meer said."This helps the brain to reach the full potential(潜能),"she added.
12.The second paragraph mainly tells us____.
A.how people's brains work
B.how Professor Meer did her study
C.when people's brains are the most active
D.when people need to wear a hat with sensors

15.According to the passage, we know that,_______.

Who was the most talented person that ever lived It might be Leonardo Da Vinci. The Italian was a painter, sculptor (雕塑家) and inventor. This year, we celebrated his 566th birthday on April 15th.
Da Vinci is still widely considered as one of the greatest painters. His most famous painting, the Mona Lisa which still sits in the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫), is one of the greatest art works of the world.
The Mona Lisa is famous for the mysterious(神秘的) smile. What is the reason for the woman's smile This is a question always asked, but it remains unanswered to this day.
Some believe that the Mona Lisa is actually a portrait (肖像) of Da Vinci himself! This is because some of her expressions on the face are similar to those in one of Da Vinci's self-portraits. Others might suggest she smiles because she has lost her teeth! We will never know for sure… It is just fun to guess!
But the new research from scientists showed that some people even think she isn't smiling but looks unhappy. The scientists also said that if Mona Lisa doesn't look happy to you, it might be because of your own feelings.The researchers showed 43 people two groups of pictures. Group One all had neutral(中性的) faces. Group Two had happy and angry faces. Each time, people saw two pictures, one from Group One, the other from Group Two. Later, they described what the neutral faces were like. When people saw a neutral face after a happy face, most of them thought it was smiling. When they saw a neutral face after a sad face, most of them thought it had a sad expression. Scientists believe our brain has predictive (预测性的) power. People use their past experiences to predict what they are going to experience next.
"____▲____" said Erika Siegel, one of the researchers. "However, if you see the Mona Lisa after you have great fun, you can see her beautiful smile. "

A.Mona Lisa is actually a man but not a woman

C.Mona Lisa lost her teeth and so did Da Vinci
D.some expressions were in the way he once painted himself

A.Different people get different feelings while seeing the Mona Lisa.

There are many expressions with heart. One of them is to "lose your heart" to someone. When that happens, you have fallen in love. But if the person who "won your heart" does not love you, then you are sure to have a "broken heart". In your sadness, you think that the person you loved is "hard-hearted", and in fact, has a "heart of stone.
You may decide to "pour out your heart" to a friend. Telling someone about your personal problems can often make you feel better.
If your friend does not seem to understand how painful your broken heart is, you may ask her to "have a heart". You are asking your friend to show some sympathy(同情) for your situation. Your friend "has her heart in the right place" if she says she is sorry for how you feel.
If your friend says, "My heart bleeds(流血) for you", she means the opposite. She is a "cold-hearted" person and does not really care about your situation.
When you are feeling afraid, "your heart is in your mouth". You might say, for example, that your heart was in your mouth when you asked a bank to lend you some money for a new house.
If that bank says no to you, don't "lose heart". Be "strong-hearted". Sit down with the banker and have a "heart to heart" talk. Be open and honest about your situation. The bank may have a "change of heart" and agree to lend you the money. Then you can stop worrying and "put your heart at rest"
23.If a young man who won your heart does not love you, what do you think of him
A.He has a strong heart. B.He has a heart of stone.

Bad breath(呼吸) is a big problem. It may make people feel bad if we have it when we are talking to them.

How can we stop bad breath Some people say that mouthwash (漱口剂) can make bad breath go away, but it's not true. Mouthwash only stops bad breath for a short time.
