Researchers from France and Italy discovered that Canadian parents are less strict with their children than mothers and fathers in France and Italy.
“Our most important finding was the difference between Canadians and the others,” said Professor Michel Claes,the lead author of the study.“Canadians focus on independence and negotiation. On the other hand,Italians,for example,exercise more control. We found Canadians seem to focus on negotiation in case of a conflict.”
Claes said Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy were selected for the study because they share important cultural and social factors.“We chose French-Canadians because they share the same language as France,and originally came from France and share certain values. Italy was included because it was considered to have similar,strong and important family values,” he explained.
The researchers examined the emotional ties between parents and their children by questioning 1,256 students aged 11 to 19 years old.
Canadian students reported less control and more free actions,according to the study. Italian parents were stricter and French parents were somewhere in the middle.
Claes explains that the differences lie in education in Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy.
“North America has its own educational values,which promote individualization. Tolerance and comprehension are encouraged. Italy,on the other hand,promotes respect of authority,control,and the need for permission.” he said.
Children from all three countries described their mothers as warm and communicative. Italian and Canadian children had similar feelings about their fathers,and reported high levels of emotional ties. But French fathers were generally thought by their children to be more distant and cold.
“We were surprised by this,” Claes admitted.“It seems as though the relationships between French mothers and their children were becoming closer over time,while fathers maintain a form of distance and coldness,which is more of a source of conflict in France than in the other countries.”
8.Professor Michel Claes believes that Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy ________.
A.have the same family spirit B.have some similar cultural traditions
C.have experienced some similar social changes D.have experienced similar cultural developments
9.How did the researchers carry out the study ?
A.By collecting answers of parents from Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy.
B.By collecting answers of children from Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy.
C.By questioning parents and their children from Italian Canadian families.
D.By questioning children from French-Canadian families.
10. According to Michel Claes,what mainly leads to the differences in parent-children
relationships among Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy?
A.Educational opportunities. B.Traditional ideas.
C.Educational values. D.Historical events.
11.Which of the following is NOT a finding of the study?
A.French children have troubled relationships with their parents.
B.Canadian children have close relationships with their parents.
C.Italian children have good relationships with their parents.
D.Kids from Canada,F(xiàn)rance and Italy have closer ties with their moms.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Some scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.
The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.
Decibels (分貝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.
Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in the oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales(鯨魚).
A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals.
The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected(被感染的).
Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds are against a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.
Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists don’t think that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.
【文章大意】本文敘述了研究表明噪音污染引起了海洋生物的危險(xiǎn),科學(xué)家將來(lái)要采取措施拯救海洋生物,阻止噪音對(duì)海洋生物的傷害,提醒我們也要意識(shí)到保護(hù)海洋生物的重要性。

閱讀下列四篇短文,從每小題后所給的A,B,C或D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
In Western culture, 21 was the age at which young people traditionally received a key to their parents’ door, as a symbol of entering adulthood. Now, the age of 21 is a time when people ask themselves: where do I go from here?
Jiang Fangzhou’s 21 years have been filled with the kind of success most young people wouldn’t dare hope for in a lifetime. She published her first book at the age of nine and has written many more since then. She is regarded as a spokesperson for her generation. However, her hopes and concerns for the future appear decidedly normal.
She explains that while her fellow students are chiefly concerned with getting a job or buying an apartment, shefrets over how she can excel in her work when having limited experience of the world.
However, Jiang, now a senior at the School of Journalism and Communication of Tsinghua University, notes that her peers face intense pressure and competition at school. They are expected to excel in their field of study despite limited experience, just as Jiang is expected to shine in the literary world.
Young people, she says, have been forced to open their eyes to the world around them. Jiang’s world has opened up, too. She’s more at ease with herself at 21, compared with when she began college.
“My horizon has broadened and I’m more tolerant,” she says. “As a freshman, I was desperate. I stopped people around me and asked: ‘Is there anything in the world still worth hoping for? ‘ But now I don’t do that.”
Jiang says that she may not pursue writing as her main future career because she wants to try“other lifestyles”—overseas travel and study touring sound particularly inviting to her. But she is concerned that many foreigners have skewed (歪曲的,傾斜的) perceptions about China.
“A few days ago I overheard a conversation between two foreigners sitting next to me on a flight,” says Jiang. “They were having a heated discussion about the number of beggars in China. And how Chinese always go for ‘petty profits’. In fact, they had been in China for only a week.”
Jiang believes prejudice is unavoidable, but she also maintains that Chinese and Westerners, for example, share much common ground.
“We share the same principles, such as honesty and a willingness to help others,” says Jiang. “The differences between peoples are not that huge.”
1. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Jiang Fangzhou’s novels. B. Embracing new challenges.
C. Jiang Fangzhou’s university life. D. Jiang Fangzhou’s success.
2. What does the underlined phrase mean?
A. be patient with B. be worried about
C. be content with D. be indifferent about
3. Which of the following sentences is true?
A. Jiang doesn’t have any pressure and competition as the others do.
B. Jiang’s peers face intense pressure and competition at school.
C. Jiang wants to be a professional writer in future.
D. Jiang often asks her friends some questions now.
4. We can infer from the text that_____.
A. there is nothing but prejudice between Chinese and Westerners
B. Jiang accepts the fact that there are huge differences between peoples
C. one week is enough to know about a true China.
D. Jiang disagrees with what the two foreigners said about Chinese

The USA is a land of immigrants. Between 1815 and 1914, the world witnessed the greatest peaceful migration in its history: 35 million people, mostly Europeans, left their homelands to start new lives in America. Why did these people risk everything by leaving their homes and families?
First, what forced emigrants to make the decision to leave? One major cause for European farmers to leave was the rise in population which in turn led to land hunger. Another was politics. There was an increased taxation(稅收) and the growth of armies, and many young men fled eastern Europe to avoid being forced to join the army.
Physical hunger provided another pressing reason. Following the collapse (衰退)of the economy of southern Italy in the 1860s, hundreds of thousands decided to start a new life in America. Religion also encouraged millions to leave the Old World.
In short, people chose to leave their homes for social, economic and religious reasons. As a result, by 1890 among a total population of 63 million, there were more than nine million foreign-born Americans.
But what were the attractions? First of all, there was the promise of land which was so scarce in Europe. Next, factories were calling for workers, and pay conditions were much better than back home. Men were needed to open up the West and build the long railroads, and new towns needed settlers to live in and to develop business. There was the space for religious people to practice their faith in peace.
This immigration meant that by around the 1850s Americans of non-English had started to be more than those of English. As we know, there were losers. To start with, there were those unwilling immigrants, the slaves who had been used as a source of cheap labour. Nor should we forget the equally unlucky American Indians. By 1860 there were 27 million free whites, four million slaves and a mere 488,000 free blacks.
Nowadays, the USA is still seen by millions as the Promised Land. As always, it remains an attractive place to those who think it will offer them a second chance.
【文章大意】本文敘述了在 1815 和 1914之間,美國(guó)成了移民最好的去處,由于政治,經(jīng)濟(jì)、宗教信仰等的原因,歐洲的一些人開始向美國(guó)遷移,因?yàn)樵谶@里人們有更多的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)、有商機(jī)有宗教自由,現(xiàn)在美國(guó)仍然是許多人的想去的樂(lè)土。

【廣東省深圳市2014高考英語(yǔ)第一次調(diào)研考試】
Neil Kerwin became American University’s(AU) 14th president in September 2007. Kerwin joined AU in 1975 and has held numerous department and leadership positions, including head of the School of Public Affairs. In this interview, he speaks about developing leadership among AU students and inspiring them to public service and the lessons he has learned as the president of American University.
“The longer I do this kind of work, the clearer it is to me that leadership is a collective activity. This happens here at American University hundreds of times every day at every level of the doing and managing hard work to reach those goals. Simply, leadership cannot be the field or responsibility of one person or a small group at the top. At its best, it is up to the organization.”
“A president’s role is to make that clear, ensure it happens, and provide space, ideas, encouragement and acknowledgment of accomplishments. Vision(有遠(yuǎn)見卓識(shí)) is important, but one that colleagues have not contributed to or are not widely shared will not serve the purpose. I have also learned delegation(授權(quán)) is also important to success and that it is a process of constant adjustment, not a single act. No one is perfect in the work we do, and by recognizing this, you’re developing a healthy culture that supports reform. And, of course, none of this relieves the president of most responsibility for the institution, and the need to be clearly and visibly accountable.”
“Another lesson is that crises(危機(jī)) assume a life of their own. They are a great time to learn and a bad time to plan. It is when times are good and stable that you need to examine the things that are of the greatest risk to your organization in the long term. As a leader, you must be able to provide the energy and motivation among your employees to ask these difficult questions, because difficult times will come.”
41.According to Neil Kerwin, leadership mainly depends on .
A.the president himself
B.students in the university
C.small group at the top
D.the organization itself
42.In the third paragraph, “ it ” means .
A.the management
B.the leadership
C.the responsibility
D.the institution
43.What are the important qualities of leadership mentioned in the third paragraph?
A.Vision and delegation.
B.Adjustment and contribution.
C.Responsibility and accountability.
D.Encouragement and acknowledgment.
44.What does the author mean by saying,“…difficult times will come.”?
A.Crises provide us with energy.
B.Crises are quite likely to happen.
C.Crises are the greatest risks.
D.Crises help people make changes.
45.What does the passage mainly tell us about?
A.The lessons Neil learned in University.
B.The difficulty Neil has in his office.
C.Neil’s opinion on leadership.
D.Neil’s motivation and organization.

Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head,according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.
Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收縮)and pumping blood around their bodies,compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event,depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.
Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said:“Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”
The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said,“The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don't see—and guide whether we see fear.”
To further understand this relationship,the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person's feeling of fear.
“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear,” Dr Garfinkel said.
“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”
25.What is the finding of the study?
A. One's fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear. B. Fear is a result of one's relaxed heartbeat.
C. Fear has something to do with one's health. D. One's heart affects how he feels fear.
26.The study was carried out by analyzing?? ________.
A. volunteers' reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scans
B. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditions
C. volunteers' heartbeats when they saw terrible pictures
D. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication
27.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “mechanism” in
Paragraph 6?
A. Order.?? B. Machine.
C. System.? D. Treatment.
28.This study may contribute to??? ________.
A. explaining the cycle of fear and anxiety
B. treating anxiety and stress better
C. finding the key to the heart-brain communication
D. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads

Today, in many high schools, teaching is now a technical miracle of computer labs, digital cameras, DVD players and laptops. Teachers can e-mail parents, post messages for students on online bulletin(公告,告示) boards, and take attendance with a quick movement of a mouse.
Even though we are now living in the digital age, the basic and most important element of education has not changed. Most students still need that one-on-one, teacher-student relationship to learn and to succeed. Teenagers need instruction in English, math or history, but they also want personal advice and encouragement. Kids talk with me about their families, their weekend plans, their favorite TV shows and their relationship problems. In my English and journalism classes, we talk about Shakespeare and persuasive(富有哲理的) essays, but we also discuss college basketball, the war in Iraq and career choices. Students show me pictures of their rebuilt cars, their family vacations, and their newborn baby brothers. This personal connection is the necessary link between teachers and students that no amount of technology can improve upon or replace.
A few years ago I had a student in sophomore English who was struggling with my class and with school in general. Although he was a humorous young man who liked to joke around, I knew his family life was far from ideal. Whenever I approached him about missing homework or low test grades, he always had the same reply, “It doesn't matter because I'm quitting school anyway.” Even though he always said this in a half-teasing way, I knew he needed to hear my different opinion and my “value of a high school education” lecture. He needed to hear this speech from me. After he left my class, he struggled through the next two years of school. But, he did finally graduate because we kept telling him to hang in there. We’d cared about him finishing school.
Recently, I saw this former student working at a local Italian restaurant. I told him again how proud I was of him. He said that he was hoping to go back to school to become a certified electrician. I encouraged him to get that training.
Students rely on compassionate teachers to guide, to tutor, to listen, to laugh and to cry with them. Teachers provide the most important link in the educational process—the human one.
41. The first paragraph mainly talks about _____________.
A. the variety of modern teaching methods.
B. the wide use of modern technology in education
C. the importance of teacher-parent relationship.
D. the importance of using modern technology.
42. The underlined word “ compassionate” in Para 5 means ____________.
A. ambitious B. knowledgeable C. sympathetic D. generous
43. According to the text, the most important element in education is _________.
A. teachers’ good instruction B. advanced technology
C. teachers’ encouragement D. personal connection
44. The author states his view of education by __________.
A. example B. description C. figure D. comparison

【廣東省揭陽(yáng)市2014高考英語(yǔ)一模試題】A
When several people look at the same person, it is not unusual for each of them to see different things; when you are alone observing one behavior or a person at two different times, you may see different things. The followings are but some of the factors that lead to these varying perceptions(感知,認(rèn)識(shí)):
(1) Each person’s perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning, education, and personal experiences.
(2) Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what’ve observed. It is not necessarily true that person perception is based on observations of a particular person. Your observations may be totally controlled by what others have told you about this person; or you may focus primarily on the situation or role relationship. Most people do not use the same standard to measure their parents, their friends, and strangers.
(3) Sometimes we see only what we want to see or don’t see what may be obvious to others because of our own needs, desires, or temporary emotional states. This is a process known as selective perception. Selective perception is obviously more difficult when contradictory information is particularly obvious, but it can be done. We can ignore the stimulus——“He’s basically a good boy so what I saw was not shoplifting(入店行竊).” We can reduce the importance of the contradictory information ——“All kids get into mischief(頑皮). Taking a book from a bookstore isn’t such a big deal.” We can change the meaning of the contradictory information--- “It wasn’t shoplifting because he was going to pay for it later.”…
26. The first factor given by the author that affects our perception is _____.
A. our hearing and visual abilities
B. cultural background and personal experiences
C. the experience one learns from others
D. critical measures taken by other people
27. While observing a particular person,________.
A. one is likely to take all aspects into consideration
B. one pays more attention to his/her advantages
C. children often differ from grown-ups in perception
D. one tends to choose certain aspects to look at
28. Observation of the same person by two people at the same time may differ because _____.
A. they follow different standards
B. either of them may be slow to catch information
C. the time for observation is not long enough
D. each of them uses different language to express his/her impressions
29. The underlined word “stimulus” in Paragraph 4 refers to _____.
A. something attractive
B. selective perception
C. contradictory information
D. shoplifting
30. The worst thing in selective perception is that ______.
A. the information received runs against your desire
B. facts can be twisted or totally ignored
C. importance of the contradictory information can be overrated (估計(jì)過(guò)高)
D. misbehaved children may not be punished
