2、 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
In American culture, I am noticing a lack of respect, especially among children. This should be treated1 since disrespectful children will become disrespectful teenagers, and then disrespectful adults. American culture is2 the ways of teaching respect, while other cultures have methods that Americans could learn from.
In 1995, I spent a couple of months in Kenya where I lived with a pastor's family. This pastor was a part of the Maasai tribes that have some unique customs. One of them is the 3 that the children give the adults. When an adult approaches a Maasai child, the child will4 and tilt their head slightly saying "Suppa". The adult responses by saying "Ippa" touching the top of their heads. This simple act shows respect for the adult. The children 5 that they are their elder and that the adult deserves respect.
In my early 20's, I worked at a children's home in South Carolina where the children from 4 to 19 years old were taught to respect their elders. They 6 me as "Mr. Vince" and every adult worker there with a "Mr, Mrs, or Ms.". However, as I counsel and talk to teachers and other professionals who work with children now, there seems to be a 7 in such as friendly behavior that children give adults. Fewer students treat teachers with respect: Children frequently talk back to their teachers, parents or seniors, interrupt conversations, and disregard their 8 . Children casually speak with other adults like waiters, store clerks, postmen, cashiers, etc. in the way as if they are children's 9 .
Immanuel Kant expressed two 10 attitudes in Europe that are still dominant today. One is that only humans are persons because they have autonomy—they freely choose to act on principles by 11 laws on themselves, and not on desires. It is this mind based on 12 that gives humans special status. Second, to learn to follow principles instead of desires, a human child needs to learn 13 to the laws of adults. They must practice 14 regulation before they are able to practice autonomy. Kant said that "act in the way you want others to act in the situation, taking other people as persons, not 15 you use for your own goals". Only in this way can you become a real person with intrinsic values.

Who can imagine life today without an Automated Teller Machine(ATM)? They are available in considerable numbers throughout the world.
The first ATM was the brainchild of an enterprising Turkish-American inventor Luther George Simjian. When the idea of an automated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents before any bank agreed to give it a trial run. It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank. Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance.
It was not until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rolled out a self-service machine in London, England, which proved successful. The first cash machine relied on customers' use of prepaid tokens(代币)to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside.
The banks' principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Ban k accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance of ATMs counted on convenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better. Now, roughly 75percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines..
Public acceptance of deposits(存款)by machine was significantly slower than customers' usage of ATMs for withdrawals. In general, it seems that customers sometimes still prefer and trust an over-the-counter transaction(交易)for deposits.
A.Location, in particular, was a key factor.
B.His cash machine, however, didn't prove durable.
C.The device was relatively primitive, at least by today's standards.
D.However, cash machines posed some interesting, unanswered questions.
E.An interesting factor was the issue of bio-statistics for customer identification.
F.Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions.
G.Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine.

Minimizing the environmental damage that new roads cause is generally regarded as a good thing. But to do that, it helps to understand just how new roads cause the damage of which they are accused. Recently, a group of researchers led by Dr. Gonzalez conducted an experiment and proved that immigration is good for the health of animal populations. A road destroys only a small part of the habitat, thus destroying just a few local population s of creatures. So the argument that road-building itself is bad for biodiversity is not self-evidently correct. Those who nevertheless hold this view say that apparently separate local populations of animals are, in fact, parts of much larger populations connected via migration.
According to this theory, when a local population struggles to move about —because of an epidemic, for example — individuals from neighboring communities can fill the gaps. The implications of the theory are straightforward. Cut local populations off from each other and each is more likely to disappear. And roads are good at doing just that. Testing the theory with experimental roads, however, would be expensive. Dr. Gonzalez's brainwave was to do the whole thing on a much smaller scale.
The team studied moss-covered rocks. On some rocks the researchers left the moss untouched; on others they made "roadways" across to leave the moss isolated. After waiting six months, they found that in the disturbed habitats nearly all the bug population had declined compared with undisturbed moss, and 40% of the species had become extinct.
The real test came in the second part of the experiment. In this, the researchers removed moss much as before, but they left narrow moss paths to bridge the no-bug's-land between islands. The islands with bridges did far better than isolated islands —a result that supports the notion that population exchange is necessary to keep an ecosystem healthy.
Whether these results can be translated to large-scale ecosystems remains uncertain. But if they can, they would cause more, not less, concern about the ecological effects of road-building. On the other hand, they also suggest a way out. In Britain, tunnels are often built under roads for animals of regular habits, such as badgers(獾), to be able to travel their traditional routes without having to fight with traffic. Extending that principle, perhaps special bridge s might be a cheap way of letting man and nature rub along a bit better.
(1)、What's the main idea of the passage?A、Calling on us to stop building roads for a healthy ecosystem. B、Warning us of potential dangers of animal immigration. C、Informing us of the environmental damage caused by new roads. D、Suggesting a new way to avoid the damage caused by new roads.(2)、Dr. Gonzalez's experiment found that ____.A、building roads is expensive B、immigration is good for animals C、roads cut off animal immigration D、tunnels should be built under roads(3)、How does the author present his point?A、By analyzing facts. B、By giving examples. C、By providing scientific findings. D、By comparing possible effects.(4)、According to the passage, which of the following statements will the writer agree with?A、The impact of road-building is not as serious as we thought. B、Road-building is beneficial to animal immigration. C、Environmental damage caused by road-building is still uncertain. D、Environmental damage caused by road-building might be lessened. -

Is forgiveness against our human nature? To answer our question, we need to ask a further question: What is the essence of our humanity? For the sake of simplicity, people consider two distinctly different views of humanity. The first view involves dominance and power. In an early paper on the psychology of forgiveness, Droll(1984)made the interesting claim that humans' essential nature is more aggressive than forgiving allows. Those who forgive are against their basic nature, much to their harm. In his opinion, forgivers are compromising their well-being as they offer mercy to others, who might then take advantage of them.
The second view involves the theme of cooperation, mutual respect, and even love as the basis of who we are as humans. Researchers find that to fully grow as human beings, we need both to receive love from and offer love to others. Without love, our connections with a wide range of individuals in our lives can fall apart. Even common sense strongly suggests that the will to power over others does not make for harmonious interactions. For example, how well has slavery worked as a mode of social harmony?
From this second viewpoint of who we are as humans, forgiveness plays a key role in the biological and psychological integrity of both individuals and communities because one of the outcomes of forgiveness, shown through scientific studies, is the decreasing of hatred and the restoration of harmony. Forgiveness can break the cycle of anger. At least to the extent the people from whom you are estranged accept your love and forgiveness and are prepared to make the required adjustments. Forgiveness can heal relationships and reconnect people.
As an important note, when we take a Classical philosophical perspective, that of Aristotle, we see the distinction between potentiality and actuality. We are not necessarily born with the capacity to forgive, but instead with the potential to learn about it and to grow in our ability to forgive. The actuality of forgiving, its actual appropriation in conflict situations, develops with practice.
(1)、What is Droll's idea about forgiveness?A、People should offer mercy to others. B、People who forgive can have their own welfare affected. C、Forgiveness depends on the nature of humanity. D、Aggressive people should learn to forgive.(2)、What does the example in Paragraph 2 illustrate?A、To forgive is to love. B、To fight is to grow. C、To dominate is to harm. D、To give is to receive.(3)、What is the writer's attitude toward forgiveness?A、Objective. B、Reserved. C、Favorable. D、Skeptical.(4)、What is message of the last paragraph?A、Forgiveness is in our nature. B、Forgiveness grows with time. C、Actuality is based on potentiality. D、It takes practice to forgive. -

I know next to nothing about baseball. When in the right field during P. E. as a boy, I prayed the ball wouldn't come to me. It took a miracle(奇迹)for me to catch it. Yet I later became the father of two boys, Will and Tim(8 and5), who were both interested in baseball. On Saturday mornings, I'd take Will out to the playground and play catch with him. Thanks to my weak arm, the ball dropped before he could catch it. After many misses one day, he said, "How am I ever going to make the major leagues?" "You got the wrong dad, kid," I thought. Baseball isn't my thing.
Still, I wanted to give my kids confidence on the field. There was an official Little League in our area, but it was super-competitive and primarily targeted older boys. What if we had something more low-key, something that welcomed boys and girls, and younger ones?
I shared the idea with some neighbors. "That would be great!" they said. Now who could organize such a thing? Not me. I tried to put the idea aside, but it wouldn't leave me. I finally decided that I must do something about it, So I called the city's recreation department, explaining that some families wanted to start a baseball league in our neighborhood. Were there any fields for that? They bounced me around. Finally, I spoke to the official in charge. I got butterflies in my stomach. What if he said no? "Yes, we have something for you," the man said, hearing my request. We got two fields for four hours every Sunday morning. Our league was founded. What a joy it was to sit on the benches, watching Will and Tim playing baseball! How grateful I was for other parents who did the coaching! And I became the most unlikely baseball commissioner(专员)ever.
Many years have passed. Now Will and Tim are new dads, and I can't wait to see what they'll have to do. I know better than anyone: Parenthood calls you to do the most unlikely things.
(1)、Why did the author think his son Will got the wrong father?A、He lacked confidence. B、He had poor baseball skills. C、He had little energy or time. D、He didn't know Will's dream.(2)、What special feature did the author expect the baseball league had?A、Being easy to join. B、Having its own fields. C、Focusing on training kids. D、Having professional coaches.(3)、How did the author probably feel while talking to the official?A、Confident. B、Peaceful. C、Nervous. D、Hesitant.(4)、What does the author want to stress in the text?A、The need to challenge oneself. B、The greatness of parental love. C、The responsibility of parenthood. D、The role of sports in kids' growth. -

There was a beaver(河狸) living in the forest, who had a big flat tail and large teeth. Beaver went grocery shopping for food every day. The Animal Grocery Store was a big hole in the biggest tree of the forest, where many animals went to get food that they needed. There were three store assistants serving customers: Goat, Squirrel and Rabbit.
One day Beaver came into the Animal Grocery Store. "What should I eat today, Goat?" Beaver asked Goat, who was sweeping the floor.
Goat stopped and answered, "I recommend that you should buy some big, red apples and a pear. They are fresh."
Beaver bought two red apples and a pear. When Beaver got home, he ate the apples and pear. But he was not happy. He was sad but he did not know why. He felt like something was missing.
Beaver went to the grocery store the next day.
"Hello, Beaver. How are you?" asked Squirrel, another shop assistant who was working behind the counter that day.
"I'm good now, but when I got home from your store last time, I was sad. I don't know why," said Beaver, "I just felt very depressed."
Squirrel was worried about the food that Goat had sold to Beaver the day before. He asked, "Did you buy any bad food last time?"
"No. The food was good. I like apples and pears, but I just wanted something different. I don't know why. What do you recommend?"
Squirrel smiled and said, "Oh, I recommend that you should buy a bag of nuts and some corn. They are healthy."
Beaver bought a bag of nuts and some corn. When he got home, he ate all of the nuts and corn. But he was not very happy again. Beaver did not know what was wrong. Why was he always sad when he came home from grocery shopping? He had bought good fruits, nuts and corn, but he felt like something was missing.

In the popular dance style, performers show off some dance moves, such as swinging their knees sideways as they perform series of fast hand actions, including fast wrist-twisting moves.
