B
If our kids don’t fall, they don’t learn to get up. I still remember the day in high
school that my mom forgot to pick me up from school. I’m the oldest of four children, and
no doubt she’d had a long day with the other kids and she forgot it. After waiting at school
for an hour, I walked the three miles home, and when I got to my house, I shut our front
door with anger, stormed into the kitchen and screamed in my mom’s face that she’d
forgotten me.
Later that night, my dad told me I no longer had a ride to school the next day. I thought
my mom would still take me, but when the morning came, she refused. It was midterm, and
as a top student ready to start college applications, being late wasn’t proper. In my mind,
missing these tests means the end of my academic career. I begged my mom. But she held her
ground, and that day, I walked to school. And I missed my tests.
My mom didn’t rescue(营救) me from failure. She let me suffer from it. She let me figure
it out. She let me learn. Now, as a mom myself, I’ve realized that I want my kids to
experience failure because failure is how we grow, learn and think outside of ourselves.
It’s how we self-educate to learn what’s right and respectable, and what’s not. It’s
how we become responsible and enthusiastic.
Falling down makes us better, because we learn how to get up.
4. Why did the author shout at her mother?
A. Because she missed some important tests.
B. Because her mother had ruined her future.

C. Because she was tired after walking home.
D. Because her mother didn’t pick her up home.
5. What does the underlined phrase “held her ground” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Gave in to me. B. Said yes to me.
D. Insisted on her decision.

C. Stayed in the place.
6. How does the author feel about her experience now?
A. Angry.





B. Helpful.
D. Embarrassed. C. Disappointed.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Stop Rescuing Your Kids from Failure
B. Try to Meet Your Kids’ Requirements
C. Offer Your Kids Help if Necessary
D. Be Strict with Your Kids
C
Is that person really glad to see me? Or is he just being polite? Some people struggle
to tell an artificial smile from a truly happy-one. And computers have found this task even
more difficult. Recently, researchers have trained a program to detect when a smile is
genuine(真诚的).
Visual computing researchers at the University of Bradford in the U. K. started with
a software for analyzing a changing facial expression. This program can examine a video
clip of a human head and identify(确认) specific details around the eyes, cheeks and mouth.
Then the program tracks the details relative to each other as the face smiles.
Next，the scientists had their program evaluate(评估)two sets of video clips. In one
subjects performed posed smiles. In the other, they watched a film that inspired genuine
displays of emotion. The program calculated the differences among the subjects’ faces
during the two clips. And it turns out that one's mouth, cheeks and eyes move differently
when pretending to smile.
In particular, the muscles around the eyes shift 10 percent more for a real smile than
they do for a fake one. These results are in the journal
Advanced Engineering Informatics
.

distribution of human smiles across the face.” Hassan Ugail and Ahmad Al-dahoud say.
The researchers suggest their work could improve a computer's ability to analyze facial
expressions and thus to interact more smoothly with humans. But their real accomplishment
is in proving Tyra Banks right:
8. What's the purpose of the program?
A. To tell different smiles. B. To detect human heads.
C. To examine human faces. D. To record facial expressions.
9. What did the researchers do in the program?
A. They performed posed smiles. B. They analyzed different video clips.
C. They improved a computer's ability. D. They evaluated a very special software.
10. What result have the researchers found from the program?
A. Smiling with eyes is the most important.
B. Eyes reflect whether a smile is real or not.
C. Mouth，cheeks and eyes always move the same.
D. Muscles move more frequently when people do a faking smile,
第二节（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Farmers, especially in developing countries, are often criticized for cutting down
forests. But a new study suggests that many farmers recognize the value in keeping trees.
Researchers using satellite images found at least ten percent tree cover on more than
one billion hectares(公顷) of farmland. 11 .
The study found the most tree cover in South America. 12 North Africa and West Asia
have the least. And it also found that climate conditions alone could not explain the amount
of tree cover in different areas. 13 . There are areas with few trees but also few
people, and areas with many trees and many people. The findings suggest that things like
land rights, markets or government policies can influence tree planting and protection.
Dennis Garrity heads the World Agroforestry Center. 14 The problem, he says, is that
policy makers and planners have been slow to recognize this and to support such efforts.
The satellite images may not show what the farmers are using the trees for, but trees
provide nuts, fruit, wood and other products. They provide windbreaks and shade from the

sun. 15 Even under drought conditions, trees can often provide food and a way to earn
money until the next growing season.
A. Almost all of it is covered by trees.
B. Nor could the size of nearby populations, meaning people and trees can live together.
C. He says farmers are acting on their own to protect and plant trees.
D. He devotes most of his time to making people realize its importance.
E. Next comes Africa south of the Sahara, followed by Southeast Asia.
F. They also help prevent soil loss and protect water supplies.
G. That is almost half the farmland in the world.
