【2011·山東淄博市模擬】A
This is a story that happened 15 years ago but it has always stayed with me since then．On the way back from work every evening,more often than not there would be a homeless man standing at the exit of the freeway．He always waved at every car,he was always happy and smiling and sometimes almost dancing．Every day after work when I got there，I would quickly roll down my window and give him the coins．Occasionally the red light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day．His answer would always be the same，“I’m blessed！”．
It amazed me that even in his situation of being homeless he was so positive，and his answer would remind me of how blessed I was．A single mother of four amazing kids,with a place to call home and with a job to provide for my kids．Then one day I was called into my boss’s office and was told that I was being laid off due to the economy．Needless to say that on my was home that day I was very sad and upset．I didn’t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did．I wasn’t feeling the joy as I got off the ramp where the homeless man would be．Yet there he was as alway，as l turned the ramp．He set his eyes on me，while still smiling and waving at others．
While I was waiting for the red light to turn，he strolled over to my car．He had a big smile he looked me straight in the eyes and said “today I will give you a dollar”．He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill．I was blown away．I burst into tears．I wanted to jump out of my car and hug him！

London has become a cycle friendly zone after the launch of a new bike hire scheme．It has been designed to encourage more people to cycle in and around central London．
So how does it work？First you have to sign up to the scheme to be sent a key．The key will unlock one of the bikes，which are kept at docking stations in and around central London．You have to pay an access fee for the key and then you pay as you go，for he length of time you use the bike．
Transport for London， which runs the scheme，are hoping to have 6，000 bikes and 400 docking stations in place by the end of the year．The new hire system is hoping to ease congestion in London and is expected to generate up to 40，000 extra cycle trips a day into the city centre．London Mayor Boris Johnston launched the scheme and said London had been “filled with thousands of gleaming machines that will transform the look and feel of our streets and become as commonplace on our roads as black cabs and red buses”．

Recently, university students around the world were asked to volunteer in a global experiment called Unplugged．It was designed to see how young people would react if they were asked to observe a total media ban by unplugging all forms of media devices for 24 hours．
Unplugged is being run by Dr Roman Gerodimos，a lecturer in Communication and Journalism at Bournemouth University．During the experiment，Dr Gerodimos said there were already signs of how much the exercise affected volunteers．He said：“They’re reporting withdrawal symptoms，overeating，feeling nervous，isolated and disconnected．”
During their 24-hour test，three of the experiment’s participants were followed around by a BBC reporter plus cameraman．They were asked to write down 100 lines about their day offline，but of course，they all waited until the next day when they had access to their laptops．
Elliot Day wrote：“Today, my whole morning routine was thrown up into the air．Despite being aware of the social importance of the media, I was surprised by how empty my life felt without the radio or newspapers．”
From Caroline Scott，we read：“I didn’t expect it，but being deprived of the media for 24 hours resulted in my day-to-day activities becoming so much harder to carry out than usual…I didn’t break out in a cold sweat like our lecturer expected us all to，but It’s not something l would like to do again！”
And Charlotte Gay wrote：“I have to say the most difficult item for me to be without has been my mobile；not only is it a social device，it’s my main access point of communication．”
Earlier in the year, a UK government study found that in the UK we spend about half our waking hours using the media, often plugged into several things at once．So, with technology continuing to develop at an alarming rate, how much time will you set aside for sleep in the future?

【2011·山東淄博市模擬】
From a very early age，some children exhibit better
self-control than others．Now，a new study that began with about 1，000 children in New Zealand has tracked how a child’s low self-control can predict poor health，money troubles and even a criminal record in their adult years．
Researchers have been studying this group of children for decades now．They observed the level of self-control the youngsters displayed．Parents，teachers，even the kids themselves，scored the youngsters on measures like“acting before thinking”and “Persistence in reaching goals．”
The study led by Moffitt of Duke University and colleagues followed 1，000 children from birth to age 32 in Dunedin,New Zealand．
“The children who had the lowest self-control when they were age three to ten，later on had the most health problems in their 30s，” Moffitt said，“and they had the worst financial situation．They were more likely to have a criminal record and to be raising a child as a single parent on a very low income．”Moffitt explained that self-control problems were widely observed，and weren’t just a feature of a small group of misbehaving kids．
Moffitt said it’s still unclear why some children have better self-control than others，though she said other researchers have found that it’s mostly a learned behavior,with relatively little genetic influence．But good self-control can be set to run in familles because children with good self-control are more likely to grow up to be healthy and prosperous parents．But the good news，Moffitt said，is that self-control can be taught by parents，and through school curricula that have been shown to be effective．
61．From the first two paragraphs we learn that ．
A．the research has been carried out for five years
B．self-control in kids tends to determine their future
C．self-control was assessed by children’s intelligence
D．children’s self-control is almost the same at early age
62．Children with low self-control are more likely to ．
A．become wealthy in later life B．get good school performance
C．have better financial planning D．adopt negative behaviors
63．According to Moffitt， ．
A．only good genetic factors can shape their lives in the future
B．scientists know well why some children have better self-control
C．self-control in childhood has nothing to do with criminal activity
D．willpower as a child really influences people’s chances of adulthood
64．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Self-control cannot be taught in schools．
B．The study is restricted within few participants．
C．It’s never too late to deal with self-control problems．
D．Good parenting can improve self-control and life success．
65．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage？
A．Child’s self control predicts future health，success
B．Kids are encouraged to take risks at an early age
C．Children’s development cannot be changed by teachers
D．How to teach the kids a bit of self-control in schools
