Germany.But it seems that my parents dontunderstand me now.They expect me to be the same person I was before I went abroad,but Im not!Why cant they let me be myself?JimmyHi,Jimmy,As far as I know,people who have lived abroad often find that the adjustment（调整）to returninghome is more difficult than their adjustment to living in a foreign culture.Why?We expect to havesome problems when we go to a new place,speak a different language and learn the rules of a differentculture.But home?.we know that place!Your parents expect that the same person who boarded the airplane one year ago will be returning.Especially if they have never been abroad themselves,your parents probably wont understand thechanges that living abroad can cause in a person.On the other hand,you may have maintained（保持）an ideal mental image of your loved ones while abroad,an image that is broken into pieces when youreturn.Remember you have been living a different lifestyle in your host country,and you have probablybecome very independent while staying there alone.Now that youre home,you will be expected toconform（顺应）again to the lifestyle of your family.As a result,you may be upset about your parents*involvement in your life.Communication is the key to overcoming this problem.Tell your parents how you are feeling.Share with them information about cultural re-entry（重 归）,and ask them to be patient.This does notmean that you have to forget your experience and give up everything youve learned!Learn to find abalance between the old and new,just as youdid when first adjusting to your host

problem.A.patience and trustB.patience and politenessC.better communication between family membersD.a deeper understanding of the host countrys cultureCLike people,plants experience stress.And also,like people,the response to that stress candetermine success.Bad environmental conditions,such as drought,flood,heat and other stresses,affect yields（产量）more than crop pests and diseases.We are trying to find a way to equip plants with the ability to tolerateenvironmental stress and maintain high yields,said Stephen Howell,a professor of genetics and cellbiology.Plant cells produce proteins（蛋 白质）and ship them to different parts of the cell.U nder normalconditions,these proteins are folded into their normal,healthy structures as they are produced.When aplant is under stress,its cells produce poorly folded or unfolded proteins.Then a built-in system sensesthis and sets off an alarm in the cell,said Howell.In response to the alarm,another protein（IREI）starts working and creates a different processwhich activates（激活）the stress response genes whose products bring about defensive measures thathelp the plant survive.“As it turns out,responses that are activated under stress conditions actually inhibit the growth ofplants J said Howell.This allows them to preserve their energy to survive the stress conditions.For plants in the wild,this response is a help for survival,he said.In production of agriculture第6页（共12页）优点英语crops,however,this response reduces yields.“You dont want crop plants to stop growing/9 Howell said.You want them to continue to growand produce even though they are under stress.”With the new understanding of this stress response,the next step may be to silence the alarmsystem,said Howell.What may be important is to disable some of these stress responses.That maymake the plant more productive under stress conditions.”28.According to the text,an alarm in the plant cells is caused by.A.the folded proteinsB.the changed proteinsC.the defensive measuresD.the stress response genes29.The energy preserved in the plants under stress c o n d i t i o n s.A.helps the plants to surviveB.helps to maintain high yieldsC.keeps the plants growingD.helps to produce proteins30.The underlined word“inhibit”in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by 4 _.A.prevent B.start C.continue D.promote31.How does Howell intend to make crop plants maintain high yields under stress conditions?A.By making crop plants keep more energy.B.By making crop plants stop growing.C.By making the alarm system stop working.D.By making the alarm system respond quickly.DCleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice.Gifts are easy-theyre given after all.Choices canbe hard.一 Jeff Bezos.I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago.I came across the
