They also asked these students’ parents what they wanted their children to do at the weekend. The results can be seen from the diagrams below. Students who choose to go back home to study believe that studying at home helps them relax and work better. And outdoor-activity lovers think that taking exercise is a great way to refresh (使恢复精力的) themselves so that they can study better at school. And students living far away from school want to stay at school to save every minute to study. For some parents, grades are the most important while some parents say students should have time to relax themselves when they are free. 21. The teachers at No.3 Middle School asked ________ questions. A. teachers and parents B. doctors and nurses C. parents and students D. workers and teachers 22. ________ eighth-grade students want to go back home to study on the weekend. A. 65. B. 18. C. 15.

Some students choose to stay at school to study because ________. A. their home is far from school B. they don’t like their homes C. they want to study with friends together D. They can study well at home 25. We can learn ________ at the weekend from the passage. A. teachers want their students to relax B. 100 students all like staying at school C. most students want to exercise at home D. 11% of the parents want their children to go shopping with friends B In Chinese, what word do you usually use to call your mother? It’s “Mama”, isn’t it? And as you know, in America, kids call their mother “Mom” or “Mommy”. In French, the word is “Maman” and in Arabic, it’s “Ummi”. Have you noticed what these words for “mother” have in common? Well, they all have a sound close to “m”. Similarly, the words for “father” almost all have the sound “b” or “p”. There are over 7,000 languages around the world. The words for other things are usually very different from one language to another. But why are the words for “mother” and “father” so similar? The answer lies in how babies start to talk. The easiest sound a baby can make is “ah”. A child can make this sound without the use of his tongue (舌头) or lips. Then, if he is going to change things a little bit, the easiest thing to do is to break up that sound by closing his lips for a while. The child, by this point, has long been doing this to suck (吸吮) milk. And so, the baby ends up with the sound “mah”. Babies “speaking” in this way are just playing. Adults, however, don’t hear them that way. When a baby says “mah mah”, it sounds as if he is calling someone. And the person that the child is calling upon so early in his life is most likely to be his mother. The mother takes “mah” as meaning her. When speaking to her child, she calls herself “mama”. The word “mama” starts to mean “mother”. This happens with human babies worldwide. After babies begin making “m” with their lips, they put their lips together and pick up the sound “bah” or “pah”. When they make this sound, they are thought to be calling their second closest caretaker (监护人): their father. That’s why you call your mother “mama” and your father “baba”. You have been doing this ever since you started to make sounds. 26. All over the world, the words for “father” almost all have the sound ________. A. “m” B. “b” C. “b” or “p” D. “m” or “p” 27. What is the easiest sound a baby can make? A. “Ah”. B. “Mah”. C. “Pah”. D. “Bah”. 28. According to the article, when babies make the sound “mah”, they are ________. A. playing B. calling their mother C. calling their father D. saying they are hungry 29. In order to make the sound “bah”, babies ________. A. bite their lips B. put their lips together C. close their lips for a short time D. use neither their tongue nor their lips 30. We can learn from the article that ________. A. some babies find it difficult to make the sound “mah” B. babies in ancient times did not call their mother “mah mah” C. babies all over the world call their father “bah ba” or “pah pah” D. babies pick up the sound “mah” before they pick up the sound “pah” C A group of old classmates, who have succeeded in their work, got together to visit their teacher. Their conversation soon turned to complaining (抱怨) about the stress in their work and life. The teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and many cups. Some of the cups are expensive and lovely, but some are cheap and not beautiful. The teacher told them to help themselves to the coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the teacher said, “Have you noticed all the nice-looking expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the cheap ones? It’s OK for you to want only the best for yourselves, but that is why you have the stress in your work and life even if you’re very successful now.” “All of you really wanted the coffee, not the cups, but you chose the best cups and were eyeing each other’s cups.” “Now think about this: life is the coffee, and money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold life. They do not change the quality (质量) of life. Sometimes, we just care about the cups, and we fail to enjoy the coffee. So, don’t let the cups drive you, enjoy the coffee instead.” 31. The students who visited the teacher ________. A. are satisfied with their work B. are successful in their studies C. are strict with each other D. are successful in their work 32. The teacher took out cups ________. A. for the students to have coffee B. to show to the students C. for the students to have a look D. to show his favorite coffee 33. The teacher noticed that the students ________.
