9、newly published children booksBOn my table sits a photograph of a young man with thick black hair and eyes dark with the depth of understanding. It is Andy, who never hurt people. If he was angry, you knew it. If he was sad, he showed it. However, being the middle son, Andy always seemed to play the

10、 role of the mediator. The way he behaved could make people calmer and there was something mature about his judgment.He was an activist all of his life. At age 15, he traveled to Washington, D.C., to take part in a Youth March for Integrated (综合的) Schools. At 17, he journeyed to West Virginia by bus

11、 to examine the poverty of Appalachia. At 19, he worked at a camp for children who lacked money and education. Then, in the spring of 1964, at age 20, he said, “Mom, Id like to go to Mississippi.”The Mississippi Summer Project was to flood the state with hundreds of northern college students. The vo

12、lunteers would form “freedom schools” to teach African-Americans about their voting rights. It was called “one of the most ambitious civil rights projects yet.”The violence against blacks had never stopped. In the previous seven decades, nearly 600 known killings had taken place in the state. But th

13、e reasons why part of me wanted Andy to stay were the same reasons he wanted to go. Only five percent of Mississippis half-million African-Americans were registered to vote in 1960. I had fought for what I believed in all my life. I found a husband who had done the same. How could I say no to Andy?A

14、s Andy was preparing to leave, I threw some bandages into his bag. I thought he might get pushed around. Never in my wildest dreams did I think Id never see him again.There are 40 names written on the Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama. Of the 40 victims, 19 were killed in Mississippi. One

15、 of them is my son. I allowed him to go to Mississippi because that is who he was. And it is who I was, too.4. The first paragraph is mainly about Andys _.A. appearance B. behavior C. character D. background5. We know from the text that the Mississippi Summer Project _.A. aimed to help educate Afric

16、an-AmericansB. fought for African-Americans voting rightsC. attracted college students from all over the countryD. tried to protect African-Americans from being killed6. The underlined words “the reasons” in Paragraph 4 probably refer to _.A. the whole family had a spirit of adventureB. blacks were

17、in a disadvantageous positionC. it was the most dangerous civil rights projectD. Andy may become a hero at the cost of his life7. How did the author feel about allowing Andy to go to Mississippi?A. Guilty but proud. B. Ashamed but calm.C. Regretful but satisfied. D. Painful but sympathetic.CThe pace

18、 of todays working life blurs (使模糊) the line between personal time and work time, and it increasingly mixes ones personal lifestyle and work style. And as companies are trying hard to attract and keep young people for their technical skills and enthusiasm for change, office culture is becoming an ex

19、tension of youth culture. This may be no bad thing. For most of human history the middle-aged have ruled, but in the future, they will have to share power with fresh-faced youths.There have been a number of reasons for this change and the most dramatic of these is technology. Children have always be

20、en more expert than their parents at something, but usually a game or a fashion, not the centurys most important business tool. The Internet has started the first industrial revolution in history to be led by the young. Though there have been youth revolutions before, none of them made a big change

21、the way the Internet has. Throughout the 20th century, if a young person wanted to enter an American company, they needed to leave their youth behind. They got a haircut, and probably a suit or at least a tie. Now the same hair, same clothes, even nearly the same hours apply to office and home.Had i

22、t not been for the Internet, this change could not have happened. However, it did not happen because of the Internet only; the corporate restructurings (公司重组) of the 1980s and 1990s broke down traditional hierarchies (等级制度). In many companies, seniority-based (基于资历的) hierarchies have been replaced b

23、y hierarchies based on performance. The abilities to please your superiors are no longer the most valued skills. Todays employees stay with companies only as long as they feel challenged and rewarded; moving from job to job is now a sign of ambition.The rise of the young is a good thing, because it

24、gives them more opportunity to put their ideas and energy into practice at their most creative stage in life. Nowadays youth and youth qualities seem to dominate, but the experience and maturity of older employees should be put to good use, too.8A company tries to attract young people for their_.A.

25、office culture B. modern lifestyle C. changing attitude D. technical abilities9In the 20th century, to enter an American company, a young person needed to_.A. work in the office and at home B. have an eye-catching hairstyle C. dress in the business style D. leave the business tool behind10Why is the

26、 rise of the young a good thing?A. They become more energetic in life. B. They have taken over the companies. C. Their creativity can be put to good use. D. Their ideas appeal to a great many people.11What can be inferred from the passage?A. Young people will lead in fashion. B. Young people will ha

27、ve more power. C. Older people will step off the historical stage. D. Older people will continue to be the main force.D Dragonflies (蜻蜓) eat a lot, and they constantly hunt for food. Whats more, they usually catch it in the air. Zig! The dragonfly catches a small fly. Zag! It seizes a mosquito. Very

28、 few insects can outfly the dragonfly. No matter how fast they go, no matter which way they turn, the dragonfly is usually able to follow.Two engineers at the University of Tennessee Space Institute have been studying the way that dragonflies fly. Dr. James Wu and Dr. Ahmad Vakili are studying ways

29、to design a fighter plane that can change direction as quickly and easily as dragonflies can. Why is that important? If you are in a fighter plane, and another plane is after you, you want to be able to fly more quickly than the other plane, Dr. Vakili says.A dragonflys wings are the key to its flyi

30、ng ability, Dr. Wu and Dr. Vakili say. If you look closely, you will see that a dragonfly has two wings on each side of its bodya long front wing and a slightly shorter back wing. During flight, small but powerful winds of air move along each of the dragonflys front wings. Thus, the pressure of air

31、keeps the dragonfly up in the air. A dragonflys back wings help keep the winds from breaking up.Dr. Wu and Dr. vakili are studying ways to make fighter plane wings use air flow as efficiently as dragonfly wings. Does this mean that someday well have fighter planes that look like dragonflies? Dr. Wu

32、and Dr. vakili say no, because that would not be practical. They dont want wings that look like a dragonflys. Rather, they want wings that work like a dragonflysdesigned to help fighter planes change course quickly and outfly their enemies.12. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to show_.A. the flying abilities of dragonflies B. how dragonflies search for food C. the food
