My mother sat in silence,shocked by my guided who bike around the world for charity,sail the globe in search of their roots or see the world through children's eyes. We found many people on boats,bikes and foot,showing that adventure doesn't have to die when a new life is created. As one of my friends says, ‘This is your one and only chance to explore the world with your children as they are now.'

   ‘Mum,' I began awkwardly. 'We're going to travel across New Zealand. Two bikes,two trailers (拖車) ，two toddlers(學(xué)步的孩子) and 2,000 miles. ’

   ‘ Two thousand nappies(紙尿褲) more like. ’

   My mother wasn't the only one to raise objections. While friends and family were impressed by our bravery,they were horrified at what it would involve. "No nursery,no babysitters,no bath time,no peace,no escape And that was before we mentioned the real difficulty: pulling 50 kg of trailer,toddler and baggage. And of course the nappies.

   ‘Is there anything I can say to put you off ?’ my mother asked.

   ‘No,Mum/ I replied firmly.

   ‘ Well,we’ 11 see about that.’

   The challenge of dealing with my mother's phone call about potential disasters is as great as anything we may have to face on the road. Meanwhile,we rush to toilet-train bofh children to avoid the nappy carrying. Among the voices of doubt and disapproval,I still sometimes wonder if we are mad,but know we aren't mad alone. We have now been in communication with many of the families I showed my mother on the web. And we can feel our own voice getting stronger and more confident with their encouragement,advice and support.

   Now we know there are so many families out there adventuring,we ,re already developing ideas for a world tour to meet some of these families and talk with them about their experiences and spread the word about the possibilities for independent family adventure. As a friend of ours said, ‘ The only limit is the parents’ imagination/ We intend to let ours run wild.

   Oh,you’ve been there: Your parents are insisting you come home by 10 ,when everyone else can stay out until midnight. Your soccer coach keeps benching you. 36 We all have days when we think we might explode.

   That's because anger is 101 percent normal — in fact,it ,s rooted in the most primitive of survival mechanisms(機(jī)制) . 37 But humans,highly evolved (進(jìn)化的) brains attach similar meaning to things that aren't life-threatening but produce an equally intense response.

   Of course,no one ever got into trouble for having angry thoughts. 38 Think about it: Scream at your parents? Grounded. Eye-roll at your teacher? Sent to detention(課后留校的懲罰) .So consider the following survival guide to making it through those moments when you're about to explode.

   First,recognize your anger response. When you’ re angry,your whole body reacts,and your angry feelings can go from zero to out-of-control before they even register in your brain!That's why it's important to pay attenjion to physical signals. 39 

   Second,pause the passion. It can be impossible to make right decisions when you re angry. So once you ve recognized that you re mad,stop whatever you’ re doing,which will stop your body's anger response and get your brain back on track. Try one of these simple,science-backed methods to freeze your feelings and calm your mind. For example,you can take deep breaths,or close your eyes and count (to 10,to 100 ... whatever it takes!) . 40  

   Once the heat of the moment is behind you,you may be able to move right on.

   A. You’ re angry,and who wouldn't be?

   B. People sometimes lose control and get violent.

   C. A simple “Hey man,not cool” would probably do the trick.

   D. Or shift your focus to something pleasant to lift your spirits.

   E. It is what you do about your anger that makes all the difference.

   F. When an animal is threatened,it feels anger as a signal to fight to stay alive.

   G. Learn to recognize them on the spot and you'11 be able to keep your anger in check.

   Parents who help their kids with homework might feel disappointed after knowing what two researchers Angel L. Harris and Keith Robinson have found.

   “We need to do away with the assumption that anything parents do will help. That assumes that parents have all the answers,but actually they don't,” Harris said.

   “We found that when parents from various racial and socioeconomic groups regularly helped their child with homework,in most cases,it made no difference for the child's improvement in their test scores in reading,math,and their grades ,” Robinson said.

   Could the findings simply reflect the fact that kids struggling with school ask for more homework help,thus making it look as though children who get more help do worse? No,Harris said,because the researchers measured the change in achievement among all kids,including those who performed well in school. The effect of parental homework involvement was the same across the board.

   “Parents tend to hold the reins when it comes to how they’ re going to help with homework without consulting the child,” Robinson noted. “So maybe parents could ask kids, ‘Is what I'm doing helping you? How would you want me to help? ’ In this way,kids may benefit more from parents’ help."

   Vicki Davis,a high school teacher,said she's seen her share of parents doing the assignments for their kids,especially writing papers,or taking charge of important and big projects. Davis expects elementary school students to get help from parents because they're still learning study skills,and she doesn’t mind if older students talk “big picture” with their families about a project. But in general,parents should limit their involvement in making sure kids are completing their homework,she advised.

   Kerry Lyons,a mother of five in Irvington,N.Y., said the research findings are a “huge relief." Lyons works full time,so when she gets home,her kids — three kindergartners,one second-grader and one fourth-grader 一 are usually done with homework.

29. It was found that parental homework involvement generally.

   A. has a poor effect

   B. has a lasting effect

   C. has a negative effect

   D. has a significant effect

30. The underlined part “hold the reins” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by “”.

   A. show up   B. get ready

   C. watch out   D. take control

31. Who does Vicki Davis want parents to help with homework?

   A. High school students.

   B. Primary school students.

   C. Students who are writing papers.

   D. Students who perform poorly in school.

32. How did Kerry Lyons find the research findings?

   A. Exciting. B. Surprising.

   C. Comforting. D. Disappointing.

B 

What will man be like in the future —5,000 or even 50 ,000 years from now? We can only make guesses,of course,but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today,for man is slowly changing all the time.

Let us take an obvious example. Man,500 years ago,was shorter than he is today. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time,so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again,in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so,we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on,however,we shall have to use our brains more and more,and eventually we shall need larger ones!This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head. In particular,the fore-head (前額) will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant (持續(xù)不斷的) use. In fact,we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time,it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand,we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These,as a result,are likely to grow weaker. At the same time,however,our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future,then,both sexes are likely to be bald (禿頭的) .

Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at!

This may be true. All the same,in spite of all these changes,future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being,with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.

41. The passage mainly tells us that .

   A. man's life will be different in the future

   B. future man will look quite different from us

   C. man is growing taller as time passes

   D. man's eyes will become weaker 

42. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?

   A. Man's hair is getting thinner and thinner.

   B. Man has got stronger eyes now than before.

   C. Man's arms and legs are becoming lighter and weaker.

   D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.

43. Man's forehead will grow larger probably because.

   A. he will grow taller and stronger

   B. the other 80% of his brain's capacity will grow

   C. he will fully use the 20% of his brain's capacity

   D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on

44. Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?

   A. He will think and feel less in different ways.

   B. He will be hairless because hair is no longer useful.

   C. He will have smaller eyes and wear better glasses.

   D. His fingers will grow weaker because he doesn’t have to use them.

45. We can learn from the passage that .

   A. human's future life will be boring

   B. men and women will look the same in the future

   C. human beings will become less attractive in the future

   D. future human beings will have different emotions from us
