The postmark w

12、as from Tuskegee, Alabama, so we all knew who it was from. We excitedly gathered around mother as she opened it.My Dear Mother,I didnt get the leave I expected for Christmas. Ill miss all of you. Please leave the Christmas tree up until I make it back. I hope to be home by March. Love from your son,

13、 CliftonMy heart sank. I felt profound sadness that my favorite brother wouldnt be home for Christmas. My mother, being the optimist she always was, said, “Well, it looks like well get to have two Christmases this year!”After Christmas, my sister and I worked together to make sure we kept that Chris

14、tmas tree looking as pretty as possible. This was no easy feat. By mid-January, the branches drooped so low to the ground. Each day, ornaments would come crashing to the ground and there were brand new sprinklings of pine needles all over the wooden floor. My sister and I took turns sweeping them up

15、. We repositioned the ornaments to the stronger branches on the tree, hoping they would stay on.Each time we freshened that tree up, my sister and I were full of thoughts about Clifton and how happy we would be to see him again. It made us feel that he was close by, even though he was hundreds of mi

16、les away.On March 5, the doorbell rang. We ran to the door and gave Clifton a big hug. As he hugged mother, I could see him peek over her head at the Christmas tree.“Its beautiful,” he said. “Thank you.” Clifton opened his presents and told us all sorts of stories about his work in Tuskegee. That ni

17、ght as we slept, we heard a crash in the living room. We all ran to see what had happened. The tree had toppled onto the sofa and there were needles and broken ornaments everywhere. We all had a good laugh. It was fortuitous（巧合(qiohé)的）Clifton got home when he did.21. How did the author feel wh

20、 which says that listening to music by the Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart can increase a childs intelligence. Some pregnant women have even gone so far as to play Mozart recordings on headphones pressed against their bellies. And its not hard to see how Mozarts name became associated with acceler

21、ated development. He was historys greatest child genius, performing astonishing music for kings and queens at an age when many of us were content with tuneless singing “Im a Little Teapot”.So, if you have kids or youre expecting to have them, how seriously should you take the Mozart effect? Will the

22、 child who doesnt listen to Mozart in the cradle (搖籃(yáolán) be limited to an ordinary life? Are you a bad parent if your kids dont know about any works of Mozart?Relax. There is no scientific evidence that listening to Mozart improves childrens cognitive (認(rèn)知(rèn zh) abilities. The wh

23、ole idea comes from a small study done in 1993, which found that college students who listened to Mozarts Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major (K 448) showed some improvement in a test of spatial (空間(kngjin)的) skills. This finding was later described as something extremely amazing by a musician, Don Cam

24、pbell, in a book. Campbells claims about the super powers of Mozarts music were repeated endlessly in the media and fueled a craze for Mozartbased enrichment activities. In 1998, for example, the governor of Georgia in the USA requested funds to send classicalmusic CDs to all parents of newborns in

25、the state.Since then, scientists have examined the claim that Mozart increases intelligence and found no evidence for it. The original experiment with college students was reviewed in 1999, and the increase in the students spatial skills was found to be insignificant. In 2007 the German Federal Mini

26、stry of Education and Research asked a team of experts to examine the scientific literature regarding Mozart and child development, and they found no reason to believe that it increased intelligence. 24Why do people relate Mozart to children's intelligence development?A. Because he was a royal A

27、ustrian composer.B. Because he owned extraordinary music talent.C. Because he could perform music as a little child.D.

They push their bodies to unsustainable (不可(bùk)持續(xù)的) extremes of physical stress.We tend to think theres no limit to human phy

30、sical achievements. But a new study, published in Science Advances, says there is a definite limit to human endurance (耐力(nai lì). Beyond that, our bodies begin to break down.To find the limit, a US research team tracked marathon runners over a five-month period, measuring competitors initial b

31、asal metabolic rates (BMR, 基礎(chǔ)(jch)新陳代謝率) the amount of energy they expend when they rest. Then they looked at how many calories(卡路里) each runner burned per day.The team found that the maximum amount of energy a human can expend is 2.5 times of BMR. It equals 4,000 calories of energy per day. These c

32、alories can help a trained athlete to run about 42 kilometers in a day.But people cant keep using this amount of calories all the time. “You can do really intense stuff for a couple of days, but if you want to last longer then you have to dial it back,” US evolutionary anthropologist Herman Pontzer

33、told the BBC.Pontzer explained that the problem is our guts (消化道). “Theres a limit to how many calories our guts can effectively absorb per day,” he said in the Daily Mail. At that point, the body is burning calories more quickly than it can absorb food and convert (轉(zhuǎn)化(zhunhuà) it into energy.T

34、hese new findings could help athletes to best work underneath this ceiling. For example, they could manage their daily exercise time based on their BMR, to get enough calories and keep going.However, Pontzers team cant rule out the possibility of someone breaking this limit. “So I guess its a challe

35、nge to elite endurance athletes,” said Pontzer. “Science works when youre proven wrong. Maybe someone will break through that ceiling some day and show us what were missing.”27. What did the US research team find in the new study?A. Ones endurance can be improved through exercise.B. A trained athlet

36、e can do intense activities for more than a week.C. The average BMR for athletes is 4,000 calories of energy per day.D. The energy one can expend is no more than 2.5 times of their BMR per day.28. What is the main purpose of Paragraph 6?A. To tell us the problem with our guts.B. To show how our bodi

The new findings could help athletes _.A. keep a more balanced dietB. save time and reduce stressC. arrange their training properlyD. improve their performance qu

They talk about topics such as ages, income or marital status, which Americans think is annoying and intrusive（侵?jǐn)_(qnro)的）.FamilyIn China, elders are traditionally treated with enormous respect a

If you achieve something in the US, it's because you were great. While in China, if you
