　　people say teenagers are no good. they make too much noise in shopping malls; they drive carelessly up and down america’s main streets. and at least some of the time those things are true. but we shouldn’t forget that there are hard moments in the life of a teenager too.

　　i watched such a moment not long ago at a woman’s funeral（葬礼） which happened in a church. a teenage grandson stepped forward. softly he began:“i want to share a few values that nana taught me. she never failed to see light in any situation. when our family dog would attack her, what would nana say? ‘oh, what beautiful markings that dog has.’ that was nana.

　　“she was a strong woman who often lived in the shadow of my grandpa, who was a successful businessman in this city. but she was the one behind the scenes who provided the strength and support for grandpa’s career,” he said, with a voice now trembling. “that was nana’s way.” finally, in a voice breaking free of sorrow, he looked up and said, “nana taught me courage. she put up a fight to the end, when she died peacefully, which is how she lived her life. that was nana’s way, and i hope i can carry on in the same manner.”

　　there are no hearts as sensitive（敏感的） as those of teenagers, because everything is happening to them for the first time. the trouble with teenagers is that they haven’t learned to be controlled. when that boy rose to speak about the woman who had been his dearest friend, his honest voice dragged each of us out into the open where we could no longer hide. i was moved and learned a lot.

　　a new study has been carried to test the role of story telling in lowering blood pressure.dr.thomas houston, a professor of the university of massachusetts medical school, led a group of scientists that investigated how pre-recorded videos of hypertension （高血压） patients' talking about their medical histories helped another group of patients with high blood pressure to control their condition over several months.

　　houston was surprised by their studies that suggested that communication can be a powerful tool in medicine.they showed that those who had had similar experiences, when talking to someone with a similar background, could help change their behavior to become healthier.hypertension is difficult to control, since it is dependent on diet, exercise and mental state.medical treatments with drugs, and lifestyle therapies（疗法） have been relatively ineffective because people find it hard to follow those medical requirements.

　　in the test, his team carefully chose their story-tellers from 230 members of a patients' community with whom they could most easily relate.next, they divided their study population into two groups.one received three interactive （互动） dvds containing the tellers' stories of their experiences in living with and treating their hypertension.the other were given educational discs on an unrelated health topic.the study volunteers reported that they had listened to the dvds, and after three months, those who heard the stories of the hypertensive patients lowered their blood pressure.

　　while the study did not address how the story-telling influenced the patients' behavior, houston suspects that watching patients of similar backgrounds who had a similar medical experience helped to motivate them to seek medical help to their hypertension.they found that after six months the difference in blood pressure between those who watched the story-tellers and those who observed the unrelated videos remained, suggesting that the story-telling continued to have an effect.

　　1.we can learn from the text that the pre-recorded videos _________.

　　a.tell medical histories of hypertension patients

　　b.introduce some medical treatments of hypertension

　　c.introduce a good lifestyle for hypertensive patients

　　d.tell scientific discoveries of the scientist group

　　2.houston was surprised to find that _______.

　　a.hypertension is really difficult to control

　　b.communication has some medical effects

　　c.medical treatments have no effect at all

　　d.people don't follow the medical requirements

　　3.which of the following is true about the study?

　　a.the scientists chose 230 patients from a hospital.

　　b.both the groups used the same videos about health topic.

　　c.the two groups lowered blood pressure in different degrees.

　　d.the story-tellers were hypertension patients as well.

　　4.which of the following could be the best title of the text?

　　a.the stories of some hypertension patients. b.medical treatments of blood pressure.

　　c.storytelling may help lower blood pressure.

　　d.suggestions about how to lower blood pressure.

　　have you ever been to the beautiful country of holland and its capital amsterdam? anyone who has traveled to amsterdam would probably agree on one thing: amsterdam's story is a tale of two cities -- one during the day and a completely different one at night.

　　during the day, the largest city in the netherlands sits quietly on the amstel river.you can rent a bicycle, visit the van gogh or anne frank museum, or take a water taxi.but when the sun goes down, the partying begins.in the big clubs and in coffee shops, tourists gather to hang out, talk politics and smoke.

　　several areas of the city clearly show the two worlds that rule amsterdam.and they're all within a short cab ride of each other.for example, dam square attracts daytime sightseers to its festivals, open markets, concerts and other events.several beautiful and very popular hotels can be found there.and there's the royal palace and the magna plaza shopping mall.

　　but at night party-seekers come to the square.hip hop or funk music is heard there..so if you come, be ready to dance.the clubs don't shut down until 4 am.

　　and while you're there, check out the various inexpensive ways to tour the city.don't worry about getting lost.although dutch is the official language, most people in amsterdam speak english and are happy to help you with directions.and you'll notice that half the people in the streets are on bicycles they rent.

　　amsterdam also has a well-planned canal system.for about 10 dollars, you can use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise（巡游） the "venice of the north".

　　the city has a historic past.one impressive place to visit is the anne frank house on nine streets.it was there that the young jewish girl wrote her famous diary during world war ii.visitors can view anne's original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the room where she and her family hid from the nazis for two years.

　　5.what means of transport is not available to visitors in amsterdam?

　　a.a carriage. b.a bicycle. c.a canal bus. d.a water taxi.

　　6.when getting lost, a visitor can ask natives for directions in _______.

　　a.only dutch b.dutch or english c.only english d.spanish and english

　　7.what can you learn about by visiting the anne frank house?

　　a.the experience of a beautiful girl survivor. b.the glorious past of amsterdam.

　　c.the life of jewish during world war . d.the suffering of the dutch in wars.

　　8.the passage is intended to _______.

　　a.call up people’s memories of world war

　　b.tell readers what a tale of two cities is about

　　c.instruct visitors what to do and see in holland

　　d.offer readers some information about amsterdam

　　teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools.but relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake.many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven ineffective.the staying power of the “look-say” or “whole-word” method of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.

　　the whole-word approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of letters, thinking over decoding, developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words.it fits in with the self-directed, “learning how to learn” activities recommended by advocates of “open” classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading.before 1963, no major publisher put out anything but these “run-spot-run” readers.

　　however, in 1955, rudolf flesch touched off what has been called “the great debate” in beginning reading.in his best-seller why johnny can’t read, flesch indicted（控诉）the nation’s public schools for miseducating students by using the look-say method.he said and more scholarly studies by jeane chall and rovert dykstra later confirmed that another approach to beginning reading, founded on phonics, is far superior.

　　systematic phonics first teaches children to associate letters and letter combinations with sounds; it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words.rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words, it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the english language can be learned.phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences; it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step.

　　9.the author indicts the look-say reading approach because ________.

　　a.it overlooks decoding b.rudolf flesch agrees with him

　　c.he says it is boring d.many schools continue to use this method

　　10.one major difference between the look-say method of learning reading and the phonics method is _________.

　　a.look-say is simpler b.phonics takes longer to learn

　　c.look-say is easier to teach d.phonics gives readers access to far more words

　　11.the phrase “touch-off” （para 3, line 1） most probably means _________.

　　a.talk about shortly b.start or cause

　　c.compare with d.oppose
