I have found that when dealing with grown-ups, it is wise to remember two things:Always use your head.Never use your head.For instance, one day just before supper, my mother sent me to the store for a loaf of whole-wheat bread. They didnt have any. When I told my mother, she said, “Well, what kind did you get? I told her I didnt get any. She looked as if I had just announced that I was leaving home for good. “For goodness sake! Said, “if they didnt have whole-wheat, you should have got something else! Why dont you use your head?Not long after that, she sent me to the store for red oilcloth. They didnt have any, so I bought seven yards of purple. I thought it was pretty. Mother didnt. She said, “who ever heard of purple oilcloth in a red kitchen? I told her I was only trying to use my head. She said, “Well, dont! And in the future, if you cant get what I send you for, dont get anything.See what I mean?There are other things that seem a little strange, too. If my father goes out for the evening, he tells me to “look after my mother and sister. But if the family goes out, and I want to stay home, my father wont let me. He doesnt feel comfortable if I am home alone. That means I am old enough to “look after my mother and sister but not old enough to “look after myself. Another problem is what to do when you trip over (绊倒) the cat and land with your head in the refrigerator, causing a large lump to appear just over the right eyebrow. In that case, your father could feel free to say with a few choice words. Your sister could shed enough tears to dampen the whole room. Your mother could, and probably would, do both. But you? You are thirteen and cant do anything! You are too young to curse (诅咒), and “big boys dont cry. So you just stand there looking more stupid than usual. But in spite of all this, I still think thirteen is a wonderful age!51. The main idea of the passage is that _. A. young children are a nuisance (讨厌的人)B. being thirteen involves (包括) too many responsibilities C. a thirteen-year-old boy is the sun of the familyD. thirteen-year-olds have special problems52.

The promoters(推销员) of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to beauty or desirability.Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoter. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug, FDAFood Drug Administrationcan require proof under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that it is safe and effective before it is put on the market. But if the product is a device, FDA has no authority(=right) to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily(主动地), or it can take legal action, including seizure (查封) of the product.One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life. Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings (法律诉讼), and new devices appear continually. Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.56. It can be inferred that ads mentioned in the text are _.A. objective B. costly昂贵的 C. unreliable D. illegal57. Which of the following is true according to the text?A.

The Relaxacisor is mentioned as _.A. a product which was designed to produce electricityB. a product whose distributor was involved in a legal caseC. a successful advertisement of a beauty productD. an example of a quality beauty product60. The author intends to _.A. make consumers aware of the promoters false promisesB. show the weakness of the law on product safetyC. give advice on how to keep young and beautiful D. introduce the organization of FDA C What is the color of the universe? Astronomers had not answered this question, until two months ago. That is when two American astronomers reported on their study of all the light in the universe. They said that the universe would appear to the human eye to be a light greenish color, called turquoise(青绿色).Karl Glazebrook and Ivan Baldry of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, reported their finding in January. They presented the research at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society. They said that finding the color of the universe was not part of their serious s
