S the experiment being conducted by a number of schools in Virginia Beach and so far,the results have been quite encouraging However,before you get your hopes up,the encouragement is not being offered to kids in every gradeOnly high school students who are motivated enough to register for Advanced Placement(AP)courses and,take the tests Also,not everyone who takes the test is qualified for the cashOnly students with a score of 3 and above maximum is 5),the level at which they are exempt(豁免)from taking the course in college,are rewarded And while100 seems like a lot of money,most of it is used for paying to take the examsThe students usually end up getting about20 per test The funding for this program,which is being tested in about a dozen high schools,has been obtained from The National Math and Science Initiative,a public-private partnership set up to encourage high-school students to take up more challenging courses While this is a rather unusual way of encouraging students to step up to the challenge,it seems to be working Salem High School,which is participating in the program,is experiencing a large increase in the number of students registering in AP coursesThe teachers are also quite pleasedFor not only are they receiving additional training,but also,funding in a large sum rather than piecemeal,enabling them to acquire the class materials all at one timeSounds like a 第 5 页 共 10 页 winwin for everyoneDo you think paying students to study is a good idea?56Who can get the cold hard cash according to the text?AKids in every grade BStudents getting

Bunconcern Cobjection Dapproval B A Blog as Therapy for Teenagers In the days before the instantly typed OMG Where R U?the first words many teenagers wrote during their worried moments were“Dear Diary”After several paragraphs of writing adolescent anxiety onto paper,the diarist often felt betterResearch has long backed the thera peutic(治疗的)value of diary-keeping for teenage girls and boysBut according to a new study,when teenagers detail their troubles onto a blog,the therapeutic value is even greater.To track teenagersexperiences with blogging,the researchers randomly surveyed high school students in Israel and selected 162 of them(124 girls and 38 boys)who exhibited some level of social anxiety or stressThe teenagers,who averaged 15 years oldsaid they had difficulty making new friends or relating to their existing friends The teenagers were averagely divided into six groupsThe first two groups were asked to blog about their social difficulties,with one group asked to open their posts to commentsThe second two groups were asked to blogabout whatever struck their adolescent fancy;againwith one group allowing commentsAll four groups were told to write in their blogs at least twice a week.As a control,two more groups were told to keep either an oldfashioned print diary or to do nothing at all All of their blog entries were then gone Over by four psychologists to determine the authorsrelative social and emotional stateIn all the groups,the greatest improvement in mood occurred among those bloggers who wrote about their problems and allowed commenters to respond.Interestingly,the commenters on the blogs were almost supportive The only kind of surprise we had Was that almost all comments made by readers were very 第 6 页 共 10 页 positive and constructive in trying to offer support for suffering bloggers,”Dr Barak wrote in an email The findings may hold in the real virtual world as well“I definitely write posts in which I talk about trouble,and it helps me to relax,”said Royar Loflin,a 17-year-old blogger from Norfolk,Va 61.What is better to reduce adolescent anxiety according to a new study?A.Composing a poem BKeeping a diary CWriting a blog

CAmusedDWorried 65.It can be inferred that Royar Loflin could get very_.Adestructive comments from readers B constructive comments from psychologists Cdestructive comments from his family Dsupportive comments from readers C Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowanceThe purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family Timing is another consideration Some children get a weekly allowance Others get a monthly allowance In any case,parents should make clear what,if anything,the child is expected to pay for with the money At first,young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it If they do this,they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budgetParents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and savingOlder children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs,like clothing or electronics Allowances give children a chance to experience the things they can do with moneyThey can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause111ey can spend it by buying things they wantOr they can save and maybe even invest(投资)it Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice:you have to cut costs and plan for the futureRequiring children to save part of their allowance Can also open the door to future saving and investingMany banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal financeA savings account is an excellent way to learn abo ut the power of compound interest(利息)That may not seem like a lotBut over time it adds up 66Parents give their children allowance to_ 第 7 页 共 10 页 Ashow off their wealth B1et them make more money C1et children manage family finance D1earn the value of

to offer young children more money in advance?ATo show them how to make a budget BTo save money for larger costs CTo let children make fewer mistakes DTo give them more allowance next time 69What can we learn from the last paragraph?AChildren need not save their allowance BSaving can help children plan future finance CChildren can buy everything with their allowance DAll children must have a savings account 70The author intends to _ Amake parents aware of the childrenS allowances Bshow the methods of investing Cgive advice on how to save money Dintroduce the advantages of allowances D In my first week as a graduate student at Cambridge University in 1 964 I came across a fellow student,two years ahead of me in his studies;he was unsteady on his feet and spoke with great difficultyThis
