Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A good mother is someone who would sacrifice everything for her children. It is common to hear parents saying, “How could you do this to me after all the sacrifices that I have made for you?,Most parents are driven by love. It is equally common to find children answering, "When did I ever ask you to sacrifice fbr me?,There is often a grain of truth in children's words.The truth usually hurts.Parents often confuse selfless love with sacrifice. In fact, the former is a self-serving act driven by one's desire to live up to one's standards. To sacrifice means to relinquish things of high value for the sake of another thing that one considers being of great value. That sounds so negative. However, self serving isn't necessarily negative. It is human to act out of their desire to seek pleasure and avoid pain. To love one's children essentially means accepting them unconditionally. It follows that full acceptance of the children is usually possible only when parents fully accept themselves. It is no secret that loving the children begins with loving themselves.The sacrifices they make fbr their children are countless, and I've tried to put some of those sacrifices here. After becoming a parent, a couple's life is centered on their little kids. Suddenly the baby tops the list of all relationships. Some friends and family members drift apart from parents emotionally. A kid demands undivided attention till he or she becomes independent.Many parents suffer relationship issues because they spend most of their time either working or caring for kids, whichcauses a fading emotional connection between couples. In terms of career, most of the time, a mother makes sacrifices. Many parents take up jobs that allow them to spend more time with their kids. Some parents usually give up on their favorite foods just to buy foods for their kids. Holiday plans are decided by kids' education.Parents have unconditional love for kids. A parent never retires. As a daughter, and a mother, the more I go through parenting, the more I owe an apology to my parents because of their selfless love.1、According to Paragraph 1, what can we know from children's answer?A. They don't feel grateful to their parents.B. They, don't know how to satisfy their parents.C. They hide their true feelings from their parents.D. They are not old enough to understand their parents.2、What does the underlined word “relinquish“in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Clear.B. Protect.C. Give up.D. Find out.3、There are sometimes some problems between parents because.A. they just think about themselvesB. they don't care about each other at allC. they spend little time looking after kidsD. they are less connected to each other emotionally4、What is the main idea of the passage?A. Many kids don't treat their parents well.B. Parents make great sacrifices for their children.C. Children and parents should respect each other.D. Couples have many problems after having kids.Text 2Time Out New York, your ultimate guide to life in the city, helps you discover the best events and things to do in MarchMar 3-15.

Procrastinating, as putting things off like this is called, is in our character we have naturally since birth; we avoid dull or difficult jobs until it's too late to do anything else.“We often put things off although we know it will make life more stressful/9 says Dr. Steel, an authority on the science of motivation. cif these tasks were fun, we'd just do them now. We put off what is difficult or unpleasant, such as the paperwork that needs doing before leaving the office or cleaning the bits of your home that people can't see. But the fact is, the less people procrastinate, the more money they have, the better relationships they have, and the healthier they are." This is obvious when you look at the couples who don't argue about whether anyone has cleaned the kitchen, and the people who simply go for a run instead of endlessly rescheduling it in their heads.Of course, there are the rest of us, who feel the small jobs piling up around us daily. "We've evolved to respond to the moment, and not to set our sights too far in an uncertain world,Dr. Steel adds. "We are not set up to appreciate long-term rewards, whether ifs the benefit of a four-year degree, doing exercise or dieting. We usually feel the cost now and the reward comes much later." According to Dr. Steel, we have two decision-making systems. They are the limbic, which is responsible for the short term, and the prefrontal cortex, which deals with the future. We bounce between long-term goals and short-term temptations, so we need goals that will translate our plans for the limbic system.Lefs take the example of students9 writing essays. They should set themselves targets and word counts per day. These are thus turned from seemingly endless tasks into something concrete with measured progress. Dr. Steel recommends such techniques, or "pre-commitments, adding that leaving you a month before the “deadline“ makes it more likely a task will be completed. The benefit is that you'll avoid the embarrassment of not following up on something people are expecting you to do-telling everyone you are going to take up jogging makes you more likely to do so.Overcoming procrastination finally comes down to planning, which, if you're not carefbl, becomes procrastination in itself. But it is worth making sure you have everything in place. "Successful people don't pretend they don't procrastinate/9 Dr. Steel says. "People who pretend they have willpower are less successful.Instead, plan for procrastination: make your work environment a temple of productivity by cutting out what stops you paying your attention, so you can really focus on moving forward.1、What does the author say about procrastination in Paragraph 1 ?A. It is something many people can't help.B. It is an excuse people often use in public.C. It is caused by the technology in people's life.D It is more common when people have small jobs to do.2、 In paragraph 3, Dr. Steel believes that people who procrastinate should.A. attempt to overcome their natural tendenciesB. take the advice of others in the same situationC , be aware that their problem is relatively smallD. find out more about the way they make decisions3、Why does Dr. Steel recommend making "pre-commitments“ in Paragraph 4?A. They are an alternative to impossible goals.B. They make challenges feel more manageable.C , They are an effective way of impressing others.D. They allow people to achieve their aims sooner.4、What does the author do by saying the underlined sentence?A. Encourage the reader to develop plans effectively.B. Advise the reader to deal with complex tasks quickly.C. Warn the reader against spending too long getting organized.D. Remind the reader to take the time to focus properly on a task.Text 4Language learning apps are very popular now and offer opportunities to learn vocabulary and practice grammar. But there has been a discussion about just how effective such apps can be.Among the most popular apps are Duolingo and Busuu. A previous research found positive results on the use of them. But it mainly concentrated on studies with learners who had signed up to language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the results were not always reliable. A recent study of 4,095 Busuu users has been carried out aimed to find out if users can actually learn a language with an app.Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special model where some content is available for free while some content is not. We find that its users are an even mix of men and women. More than half consider themselves to be at the beginner level as there is a decrease in users as their language levels go up. Most people use the app because of personal interest, or because they want to study or live abroad. Female users tend to use it less often but for longer periods of time than male users.Getting any feedback on Busuu depends on whether your answer is correct or not. While it is helpful, this is not the sort of feedback language teachers prefer, as it does not explain why the answer is right or wrong. In spite of this, feedback in the app is very highly rated.More than 92% of respondents state that the app has met their expectations and 86% rate the app as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language they are learning.Besides, language learning apps also create an environment where mistakes are only known to the users, and this can addiess the performance anxiety that many learners suffer from when asked to s
