On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues turned to me and said, "Graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life." At my inquiry, he answered, "Because the students you have gotten to know have to leave."As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleague's words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I have had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously isn't the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my current one, though I have more education and have worked for over a decade. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired. I thanked him, but declined his kind offer. A few days before this current graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my classnot about math, but about lifewould be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher. Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with renewed dedication (奉献) and a deeper sense of satisfactionI will always be grateful that I am a teacher. 51. Hearing his colleague's description of graduation for the first time, the author _. A. quite agreed with his colleague B. was very puzzled C. thought it very funny D. was very sad52. The computer science student called up the author because he_. A. wanted to inform the author of his present job B. tried to persuade the author to work with him C. wanted the author to share his joy and satisfaction D. thought the author wasn't fit to be a teacher53. The underlined part “blue hats and gowns” refers to_. A. university colleagues B. graduates' clothes C. life memories D. decorations in the hall54. The author wrote this passage to _. A. express his devotion to being a teacher B. compare two different graduation ceremonies C. talk about the meaning of graduation D. give advice on how to be a good teacherBRegular child care provided outside home or by someone other than the mother does not in itself undermine (削弱) healthy emotional connections between mothers and their 15-month-old infants(幼儿), according to a long-term national study. The finding holds even if care begins during the first 3 months after birth and runs for 30 hours or more per week. Among infants who receive unkind and unresponsive care from their mothers, however, the mother-care relationship may be damaged. " This research helps us put apart complexities regarding child care that have not previously been studied in detail," contends (主张) Jay Belsky, a psychologist at Pennsylvania State University. Belsky and several of his colleagues announced their findings last week at the international conference. The investigation consists of 1,153 children and their families living in or near Boston. The youngsters, no more than 1 month old when entered the study in 1991, will be tracked until the age of 7. Experimenters gave questionnaires to mothers in their homes and videotaped baby caretakers interacting with the kids at ages 1, 6, and 15 months. Independent observers rated the quality of each child care efforts and noted infant nervousness. Unlike most previous studies, this one allows researchers to observe each caretakers personality at child nursing, and kids emotional reaction by the equipment. After taking family factors into consideration, other psychologists state that the researchers found no relation between the quality of child care and infants response. But the experimenters contend that the boys who spent more than 30 hours per week in child care exhibited more emotion for their mothers than other boys who didnt, and the girls who spent the same hours per week in child care showed a modest (适度的) rise in this emotion. Therefore, quality of child care outside home plays an important role in the connection between mothers and infants.55. From the first paragraph we know that _. A. mother care is the best according to a national study B. child care outside home is the best in accordance with the study C. regular child care outside home may play a role as a mother D. connections between mothers and infants are damaged by outside care56. According to the passage, unresponsive care from a mother may _. A. ruin a kids growth B. harm the mother-child tie C. injure a babys emotional reaction D. spoil childs personality57. Jay Belsky implies that the study of child care _. A. was not much done in detail in the past B. was never carried out in the past C. was greatly ignored by psychologists and researchers D. was interesting, but very difficult to make discovery58. The main difference between the investigation and the previous ones is that _. A. the researchers started with only one month old infants B. the researchers could rate the quality of child care efforts and analyzed them soon C. the researchers were able to give the questionnaires to mothers in their homes D. video equipment enabled researchers to observe what was happening directly59. The girls who received the same hours of child care outside home as the boys show _. A. more emotion for their mothers B. less emotion for their mothers C. a modest rise in mental development D. a slight decline in the personality developmentCBelow is adapted from an English dictionaryfigure/fg / noun, verb noun 1.
