Despite gains in recent years，women still fall behind men in some areas of math achievement，and the question of why has caused heated argument. Now，a study of first and second graders suggests what may be part of the answer：Female primary school teachers who are concerned about their own skills could be passing that along to the little girls they teach.
Young students tend to model themselves after adults of the same sex，explained Beilock，an associate professor in psychology at the University of Chicago. Little girls may learn to fear math from the women who are their earliest teachers. Beilock and her colleagues studied 52 boys and 65 girls in classes taught by 17 different teachers. Ninety percent of the US primary school teachers are women，as was all of those in this study.
Students’ math ability was not related to teachers’ math anxiety at the start of the school year，but at the end of the year，the more anxious teachers were about their own skills，the more likely their female students—but not the boys—were to agree to that “boys are good at math and girls are good at reading”．In addition，the girls who answered that way scored lower on math tests than either the classes’ boys or the girls who had not developed such a belief，the researchers found.
After seeing the results，the researchers recommended that the math requirements for obtaining a primary education teaching degree should be rethought. “If the next generation of teachers，especially primary school teachers，is going to teach their students more effectively，more care needs to be taken to develop both strong math skills and positive math attitudes in these educators,” the researchers wrote.
“Girls who grow up believing females lack math skills wind up avoiding harder math classes. It keeps girls and women out of a lot of careers，particularly in science technology,” Beilock said.
1.We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ______.
A. teachers in US primary schools are mostly females
B. the students involved in the study are starters at primary school
C. young students usually follow example of their female teachers
D. it’s true that boys do well in math while girls do well in reading
2.We can we infer from the text?
A. Beilock’s study will bring about a primary education revolution.
B. Girls’ lack of confidence in math skills affects their future jobs.
C. The performance of the students changed little during the process of the study.
D. The researchers argued that current primary school education needed improving.
3.What’s the suggested solution to the phenomenon mentioned in the text?
A. Using different approaches to excite students’ interest in math.
B. Reducing the number of situations that make teachers anxious.
C. Creating more chances for boys and girls to work together in class.
D. Improving teachers’ math skills and changing their math attitudes.
4.What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Girls may learn math anxiety from female teachers.
B. Boys are free from the math anxiety of female teachers.
C. Primary school teachers have a far-reaching influence on students.
D. Students should learn how to hold positive attitudes towards math.

My grandparents believed that you were either honest or you were not. They had a simple saying hanging on their living-room wall: “Life is like a field of newly fallen snow. Where I choose to walk every step will show.” They didn’t have to talk about it; they showed this truth by the way they lived.
They understood that honesty is an inner(內(nèi)部的) standard for judging your behavior. Unfortunately, honesty is in short supply today. But it is the real bottom line in every area of society and a discipline (自制能力) we must demand of ourselves.
There’s a story told about a surgical nurse’s first day on the medical team at a well-known hospital. She was responsible(負(fù)責(zé)) for all surgical instruments and materials during an operation. At the end of the operation, the nurse said to the doctor, “ You’ve only removed 11 sponges（海綿）, and we used 12. We need to find the last one.”
“I removed them all,” the doctor assured her. “ No, you didn’t , sir,” insisted the nurse. “ Think of the patient.”
Smiling, the doctor lifted his foot and showed the nurse the twelfth sponge.
So when you know you’re right, you can’t yield. Don’t be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be more intelligent than you are.
Self-respect and a clear awareness (意識)of right and wrong are powerful parts of honesty and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others. Honesty means you do what you do because it’s right and not just fashionable or politically correct. A life of principle, of not easily yielding, will always take you forward. My grandparents taught me that.
1.From the first two paragraphs, we can infer that ______.
A. the author’s grandparents liked snow
B. the author’s grandparents didn’t like chatting
C. the author is worried about the issue of honesty in today’s society
D. Honesty is the most important standard for judging one’s behavior
2.The nurse insisted there was still a sponge because_____
A. she saw the doctor hide the twelfth sponge
B. she believed she was right
C. she thought the doctor was not responsible
D. she knew the patient well
3.What does the underlined word “yield” mean in the text?
A. admit B. give in
C. stop D. look forward
4.How does the text mainly develop?
A. By providing an example of honesty.
B. By making a comparison between honesty and dishonesty.
C. By explaining the author’s grandparents’ belief in detail.
D. By following the order of importance.

If you've not heard that the decade-old princess-culture is causing problems—especially if you're a parent—you must be actively working to avoid it.
The latest study adding fuel to the fire comes out of Brigham Young University and finds that the Disney princess obsession can be harmful to girls.
“I think parents think that the Disney princess culture is safe. That’s the word I hear time and time again—it’s safe.” Lead study author Sarah M. Coyne of the Mormon institution in Utah noted in a press release. “But if we’re fully jumping in here and really embracing (accepting) it, parents should really consider the long-term impact of the princess culture."
So, what’s the problem this time around? Same as always, confirmed the study, published in the journal Child Development, which involved the assessment of 198 preschoolers: Lots of engagement with princess culture (whether through moves or toys) can lead to gender-stereotypical(性別定性) behavior as well as self-critical body image.
The strict gender stereotypes can hold girls back. “They feel like they can’t do some things,” Coyne said, “They’re not as confident that they can do well in math and science. They don’t like getting dirty, so they’re less likely to try and experiment with things.”
On the other hand, “Disney princesses represent some of the first examples of exposure to the thin ideal,” Coyne said. “As women, we get it our whole lives, and it really does start at the Disney princess level, at age 3 and 4.”
So, what should a parent do? Try his or her best to avoid all princesses for the entire of a girl's childhood? I'd say, have moderation in all things, have your kids involved in all sorts of activities, and just have princesses be one of many, many things that they like to do and engage with." Coyne suggested. “This study has changed the way I talk to my daughter, the things I focus on, and it's been really good for me as a parent to learn from this study,” Coyne said. “I usually can't say that my research findings have such a personal impact on my life."
1.What do we know about the study?
A. It proved that the Disney princess obsession is harmful.
B. Sarah M. Coyne is the first one to do the research.
C. It started a heated discussion among people.
D. It suggested watching TV programmes of I lie Disney is safe.
2.How many problems can the Disney princess culture cause according to the study?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
3.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 6 refer to?
A. The Disney princess culture.
B. The idea that girls can't do some things.
C. The idea that girls should be thin.
D. The problem the Disney culture causes.
4.What advice does Coyne give to parents?
A. Actively work on the old princess culture.
B. Change their way they talk to their daughter.
C. Avoid girls to watch any princesses.
D. Have girls involved in all kinds of activities.

It all began with a stop at a red light.
Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter,Hannah,back from a sleepover in 2006.While waiting at a traffic light,they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other.
"Dad,if that man had a less nice car,that man there could have a meal," Hannah protested.The light changed and they drove on,but Hannah was too young to be reasonable.She pestered（糾纏）her parents about inequity,insisting that she wanted to do something.
"What do you want to do?" her mom responded. "Sell our house?"
Warning!Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager.Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds（收入）to charity,while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home.
Eventually,that's what the family did.The project—crazy,impetuous（魯莽的）and absolutely inspiring—is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month: The Power of Half.It's a book that,frankly,I'd be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it.An impressionable child reads this,and the next thing you know your whole family is out on the street.
At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere,when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes,the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference—for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help.In a column a week ago,it described neurological（神經(jīng)生物學(xué)的）evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction.The Salwens' experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness.
Mr.Salwen and his wife,Joan,had always assumed that their kids would be better bigger house.But after they downsized,there was much less space to retreat to,so the family members spent more time around each other.A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house.
1.What does the underlined word "inequity" most probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Unfairness. B. Satisfaction.
C. Personal attitude. D. Reasonable statement.
2.What is suggested in the underlined sentence "Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager." in Paragraph 5?
A. Never give a quick answer to an idealistic teenager.
B. Unless a child is realistic,never give an answer immediately.
C. Give an answer if the child is reasonable.
D. Don't respond to a child's demands firmly without consideration.
3.Which of the following statements is IRUE according to the passage?
A. Mercedes Coupe is only an ordinary car which is quite cheap.
B. Unselfishness has nothing to do with people's primary satisfaction.
C. Hannah asked her parents to do charity and they sold their house.
D. The writer's children asked him to sell their house.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The Salwens regretted selling their house.
B. The family members get much closer.
C. Small houses can bring happiness.
D. The Salwens intend to buy another big house.
