1、【助力】高考英语任务型阅读专项特训1How is it that siblings(兄弟姐妹)can turn out so differently? Each sibling grows up in a different family. The first-born is, for a while, an only child, and therefore has a completely different experience of the parents than those born later. The next child is, for a while, the younge

2、st, until the situation is changed by a new arrival. The mother and father themselves are changing and growing up too. One sibling might live in a stable and close family in the first few years; another might be raised in a family crisis, with a disappointed mother or an angry father.Sibling competi

3、tion was identified as an important shaping force as early as in 1918.But more recently, researchers have found many ways in which brothers and sisters are a lasting force in each others lives. Dr.Annette Henderson says first-born children pick up vocabulary more quickly than their siblings. The rea

4、son for this might be that the later children arent getting the same one-on-one time with parents. But that doesnt mean that the younger children have problems with language development. Later-borns dont enjoy that much talking time with parents, but instead they harvest lessons from bigger brothers

5、 and sisters, learning entire phrases and getting an understanding of social concepts such as the difference between “I and “me.A Cambridge University study of 140 children found that siblings created a rich world of play that helped them grow socially. Love-hate relationships were common among the

6、children. Even those siblings who fought the most had just as much positive communication as the other sibling pairs.One way children seek more attention from parents is by making themselves different from their siblings, particularly if they are close in age. Researchers have found that the first t

7、wo children in a family are typically more different from each other than the second and third. Girls with brothers show their differences to a maximum degree by being more feminine than girls with sisters. A research paper studied adolescents from 185 families over two years, finding that those who

8、 changed to make themselves different from their siblings were successful in increasing the amount of warmth they gained from their parents.Title: Reasons for the (71)_ betweeen siblingsDifferent family situationsThe first child lives in a stable and close family, (72)_ things differently from later

However, its definition is difficult for

22、many people. The meaning of the term is confusing, but everyone should understand its meaning and objectives (目标). Just to make the explanation as simple as possible,suppose science is defined as classified knowledge or facts.Even in the true science, distinguishing fact from fiction is not always e

23、asy. For this reason great care should be taken to distinguish between beliefs and truths. There is no danger as long as a clear difference is made between temporary and proved explanations. For example, hypotheses(假设) and theories are attempts to explain natural phenomena. From these positions the

24、scientist continues to experiment and observe until they are proved or discredited. The exact status of any explanation should be clearly labeled to avoid confusion.The objectives of science are primarily the discovery and later the understanding of the unknown. Man cannot be satisfied with recogniz

25、ing that secrets exist in nature of that questions are unanswerable; he must solve them. Toward that end, specialists in the field of biology and related fields of interest are directing much of their time and energy.Actually, two basic approaches lead to the discovery of new information. One, aimed

26、 at satisfying curiosity, is referred to as pure science. Sometimes practical-minded people miss the point of pure science in thinking only of its immediate application for economic rewards. However, one should remember that the construction of the microscope had to come before the discovery of the

27、cell. The host of scientists devoting their lives to pure science are not apologetic about ignoring the practical side of their discoveries; they know from experience that most knowledge is eventually applied.The other is aimed at using knowledge for specific purposes-for instance, improving health,

28、 raising standards of living, or creating new consumer products. In this case knowledge is put to economic use. Such an approach is referred to as applied science.The (71) of science(72) _ of science To define science, we may (73) call it classified knowledge or facts. It is essential, though not (7

A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your healt

31、h, which should at least come as good news to people who cannot afford to buy expensive medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis.Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective a

32、nd scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Yoga. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain, x-rays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors (肿瘤).We must admi

33、t that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some “everyday complaints such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thi

34、nking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and become addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Yoga, you do not ne

35、ed anything except your energy so it is very economical. Its popularity has spread particularly throughout America and Western Europe. In quantum (量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance (物质) which the universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our bodies. It is a

36、 simple and effective way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it is scientifically explained. Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the

37、 rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy (化疗), losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, i

38、t is common knowledge that except for when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, drugs also cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energ

39、y to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late. Title: Health and Healing at Your Fingertips(71) to a new theory A new theory argu

40、es that doing Yoga (72) can keep people healthy while medicine might do (73) to peoples health. Support of medical treatment People should (74) medicine as it is very useful for killing pain. Medicine is effective and scientifically proven while Yuga is a kind of spiritual method and doing Yoga is o

Most of the medicines that patients with some (78) diseases use are to ease their pain and their sufferings but can not cure them. Yoga has no

It can restore the energy flow in peoples bodies, which can (80) our emotions, control thoughts, overcome the hardships of life, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries.71.
