One of the biggest problems is when someone becomes a parent，he/she likes worrying about things.They worry about everything about you from the time you were born.They do a lot for you，though something would make you angry，because they care about you and worry about you.They worry about your choice of friends，food you eat，your work at school，how much sleep you get，etc.All these things are part of your life.They want you to grow up healthily and happily.

26、These days, more and more students in the UK are taking a “gap year”between their graduation from school and their university studies. This means they can take a year off to do something else, before they start their studies.

For most students, spending time in foreign countries is the favorite activity --- and Australia is the favorite place to go.

Many parents, teachers and business people agree that travelling can teach important values.

“After a year of travelling, I felt I’d grown up. I had learnt the importance of relationships with people, on all kinds of levels.”

There are many companies around the world that welcome these students on their projects---helping people in poorer countries, or even in your home country. Although you don’t get paid for your work, this kind of work can teach important skills---decision making and finding answers to problems, for example---that will help many students in a job one day.

Finally, getting some knowledge and experience in an area you hope to study or work in one day will always be very useful.

If several university graduates are applying(申请) for the same job, gar year work experience allows you to say,

“ I’ve already had some experience of this kind of work.” And that can get your job.

27、   Cats don’t seem very friendly. Unlike dogs, they don’t often play with people. They stay alone for hours. However, a new study shows that cats are just as strongly bonded(建立联系的) to us as dogs.

Researchers at Oregon State University, US, studied cats’ relationships with their owners. They invited the owners of 117 cats to take a test that is often used to test the bonds dogs have with their caretakers.

In the six-minute test, cat owners walked into an unfamiliar room with their pets. After two minutes, the owners left the room, leaving the cats alone. This made the cats feel stressed out(焦虑不安的).

When the owners returned two minutes later, the researchers looked to see what the cats would do. About two-thirds of the cats came to greet their owners when they returned. The cats then went back to looking around the room, but still returned to their owners now and then.

These cats, the researchers said, saw their owners as a source(来源) of security in an unfamiliar place. The findings are similar to those found in a study of dogs. Fifty-eight percent of dogs acted just like the cats.

“This idea that cats like to stay alone or don’t really care about people isn’t holding up,” said KristynVitale, a scientist who led the study.

【1】People usually think that cats ________.

A.are friendly toward people

B.like to be alone

C.are strongly bond to dogs

D.cannot remember their owners

【2】Researchers did the test to learn about ________.

A.the difference between cats and dogs

B.the reasons why cats don’t care about people

C.the relationship between cats and their owners

D.the ways in which cat owners take care of their pets

【3】What is true according to the story?

A.Like dogs, cats have strong relationships with their owners.

B.Cats are not afraid in unfamiliar places.

C.Dogs are more loved by their owners than cats are.

D.Cats don’t need much security as dogs.

28、   Everybody wants success. Some people work hard at it, others just talk 【1】 it. There are many successful people around us, so we all know what success looks like. Sometimes it just 【2】 (seem) like something too far to get.

But the truth is that success is 【3】 (close) than you think. It's just over there. You must want it enough, and be willing to(愿意)get it.

Success has no excuses. If you have a reason that you can't make it, you'll not be 【4】 (success). Success comes after many failures. Not e【5】 is suitable for you, even if it's fit for others. What we need to do is to let the failures become our 【6】 (teach). Then we can learn something 【7】 them.

Success is like a ladder(梯子). You need to climb it. But it's not an escalator. You can't just stand there and let it 【8】 (do) the work for you. You must do the work 【9】 (you). Sometimes it will be 【10】, other times it'll be difficult. It's necessary for you to keep climbing. Just start, you'll be on the way to success.
