C

    China has ended its long﹣lasted one﹣child policy,all Chinese couples now are allowed to have two children,which means that many Chinese children,including you,may have siblings (兄弟姐妹) in the future.

    Like many only children in China,Pan is happy and confident,except when she feels lonely every now and then."It's not fun,especially when I travel with my parents.How I wish I could have a brother or a sister,"she said.Now it could be time for Pan to realize her dream.But what would it be like growing up with a sibling?

    Having a sibling can prevent children from bad feelings such as loneliness and fear,according to Laura Walker from Brigham Young University,US."Siblings give kids something that parents can't,"she said.

    You may not feel lonely because there is someone else to play with.You can also talk about various things and share secrets with each other.

    But children with siblings also have to control their feelings and learn to compromise,said Laura.You need to share things with your siblings,including attention from parents,toys,the bathroom and even the TV.There is also unpleasant competition which you have to deal with.

    It's also said that the birth order decides how parents treat their children.Parents are usually very nervous and strict with their first child.So firstborns (including only children) have more sense of responsibility because parents set high goals for them.When the couple has a second child,they are more relaxed,less strict and have fewer rules.So late﹣born kids are usually funny and creative.

Have you ever heard the phrase "You never get a second chance to make a first impression(印象)"? It may sound like an unusual piece of advice,but it is true﹣the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future.

    What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds.When you meet someone for the first time,by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands,the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are.

    So how do you make a good first impression?All things grown up tell you such as being polite,and being well﹣dressed are very important.However,the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face.

    Smiling,being responsive,and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive(积极的)impression on people,especially those who do not know you.Most people,generally speaking,are ready to smile back when they are smiled at.

    Furthermore,smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things.This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly.So if you ever need a reason to be happy,think about the wonderful people you might meet and impress with a cheerful smile.

Birth order﹣﹣﹣does it matter? Are you different because you are the first, second, or third child in your family﹣﹣﹣or maybe the last of nine?

    A study found that first﹣borns have an average(平均的)IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order, perhaps because first﹣borns often help younger brothers and sisters, which improves their own skills. In 2007, an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of CEOs are first﹣borns ,33% are middle children, and 23% are last﹣borns. First﹣borns are more likely (可能的)to be doctors and astronauts and get higher pay.

    If first﹣borns are more successful, last﹣borns are generally more agreeable. They are also more likely to be funny, possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table. Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families, and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four. According to a 2007 Time magazine article, "The power of Birth Order," last﹣borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen.

    Then there are the middle children; we have not ignored(忽视) them! Many middle children are short of one﹣on﹣one time with their parents. They often feel shortchanged: the oldest gets more rights, and the youngest is "spoiled(宠坏的) ".Though they may be ignored, middle children are more likely to grow into easygoing adults.

    Many factors(因素)make us who we are, but if the research is correct, birth order may be one of the most important factors.

(1)Who is most likely to be a CEO?  

A. A first﹣born.

B. A second﹣born.

C. A third﹣born.

D. A last﹣born.

(2)What can we learn about Jim Carrey?  

A. He was likely to be given low pay.

B. He was likely to be agreeable.

D. He was a middle child.

A. has no influence on IQ

B. matters a lot at the dinner table

An elephant and a crocodile were once standing beside river. They were disputing which was the better animal.

    "Look at my strength, "said the elephant. "I can pull up a tree, roots and all, with my trunk."

    "Ah! But your skin is not nearly so thick as mine, "replied the crocodile. "No knife or tooth can cut through it."

    Just as they were coming to blows, a lion happened to pass.

    "My dear friends !" said the King of all animals, going up to them. "Let me know the cause of your disagreement."

    "Will you kindly tell us which is the better animal? "cried both at once.

When he was forced to turn sharply to avoid a floating tree branch, the elephant dropped the hat and it fell to the river bottom. The crocodile noticed the accident, so down he dived, and brought it up in his huge mouth. They then returned, and the crocodile laid the metal hat at the lion's feet. The King took it up, and turning to the elephant, said:"You, because of your size and trunk, were able to reach the hat on the wall but, having lost it,you were unable to get it back.

Birth order﹣﹣﹣does it matter? Are you different because you are the first, second, or third child in your family﹣﹣﹣or maybe the last of nine?

    A study found that first﹣borns have an average(平均的)IQ that is three points higher than people who fall into a different place in the birth order, perhaps because first﹣borns often help younger brothers and sisters, which improves their own skills. In 2007, an international organization of CEOs found that 43% of CEOs are first﹣borns ,33% are middle children, and 23% are last﹣borns. First﹣borns are more likely (可能的)to be doctors and astronauts and get higher pay.

    If first﹣borns are more successful, last﹣borns are generally more agreeable. They are also more likely to be funny, possibly to get attention from all the bigger people at the dinner table. Mark Twain and Stephen Colbert were both the youngest in large families, and Jim Carrey was the youngest of four. According to a 2007 Time magazine article, "The power of Birth Order," last﹣borns are more likely to be artists and successful businessmen.

    Then there are the middle children; we have not ignored(忽视) them! Many middle children are short of one﹣on﹣one time with their parents. They often feel shortchanged: the oldest gets more rights, and the youngest is "spoiled(宠坏的) ".Though they may be ignored, middle children are more likely to grow into easygoing adults.

    Many factors(因素)make us who we are, but if the research is correct, birth order may be one of the most important factors.

A. A first﹣born.

(4)We can learn from the research that birth order  

A. has no influence on IQ

B. matters a lot at the dinner table

    Today we can do everything with apps: pay bills, order food and shop for anything.Mobile technology means we can hold the world in our hands, However,when it comes to technology and health care,opportunities and challenges come together.

    Let's start with the ways to get health care.Telemedicine can allow a patient to use technology to see the doctor online and get a diagnosis (诊断) and instructions without leaving home.

    In addition, there are many patient websites. These allow for different kinds of interactions about our health needs without involving the medical team.Setting a date with doctors and reading lab results are readily achieved by technology.

    A whole new age of medical care seems likely (可能的) to come in the future.But every coin has two sides. What might be on the other side of techno﹣health care?

    Firstly, we should think about the health care experience as a whole.A usual visit to a doctor begins with a receptionist (接待员) ,who can see and tell how a patient is doing, This may influence the treatment effect. It's unlikely that a patient website will have such intuition

    Next, sharing the details of one's life requires trust, which takes time to build. This is certainly true in health care, where some of life's best and worst moments involve doctors. The human touch should not be undervalued and is unlikely to be there over the smartphone.

    Lastly, test results can be difficult to understand. When someone without a medical degree sees a flagged result with no explanation on the website, there's room for all kinds of stories to form in their minds﹣and also great worry.

    So how does medicine adapt (适应) to the new technology age? Very talented companies are working on it. There is medical equipment(设备) that can be used at home to send necessary signs and heart sounds through telemedicine.It seems likely that some companies will find a way to explain test results.

    But what it will not achieve is the warmth of human interaction and touch. Patients often need someone to listen to ﹣and care about﹣their journey story, which will never be realized through a human﹣less technology.Technology should be a tool,but depending on it totally will most certainly have unexpected effects. Let's not allow our humanity to be one of them.

(1)According to the passage, how does technology help health care?  

A. It encourages doctors to voice their needs on the websites.

B. It offers the patient a convenient way to get a diagnosis.

C. It improves relations between doctors and patients.

D. It provides an opportunity to build a medical team.

(2)The word "intuition" in Paragraph 5 probably means  

A. an ability to understand

B. an interesting experience

C. a chance to win

D. a fair decision

(3)What do you know about techno﹣health care from the passage?  

A. Patient websites require trust from doctors.

B. Talented companies can give medical advice.

C. Flagged results may cause worry for patients.

D. Medical equipment collects patients' stories.

(4)The writer probably agrees that  

A. technology can deal with unexpected effects.

B. telemedicine can take the place of usual health care.

C, it is difficult for patients to adapt to the new technology age.

D. techno﹣health care should take humanity into consideration.
