At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, and asked, "Are those things true or not? Jane, didn't you ever think about what you're really like?" Then he added, "Well, you have that girl's opinions. Make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true."

25、

The post-1990s generation is often described as self-centered and always asking for help. However, research results have painted a rather different picture: The post-1990s generation is independent, strong- minded and hard-working, according to a Peking University report.

When it comes to learning and working, over 60 percent think their own interests are more important than others’ opinions. Most of them see successful businessmen as their idols (偶像). But it’s not because they are rich. “Their strong belief in themselves and never-give-up spirit have won the hearts of the generation.” said the report.

In addition, the post-1990s generation has a strong sense of social responsibility. Many of them have taken part in volunteer work. They also try to be responsible by studying hard and behaving well.

In the UK, many of the post-1990s generation have given up the drinking habits that the past generations had, The Telegraph noted. Most of them now have healthier hobbies, such as gardening and cooking.

It’s hard to find time for a hobby if you are going out drinking, Kate Payne, author of The Hip Girl’s Guide to Homemaking, told The Telegraph.

Changes in their hobbies have also helped them learn good manners. The Youth Justice Statistics report in the UK showed that young people are less rude and noisy in public.

However, a generation’s trails (轨迹) don’t belong to every single person in it. “It’s what you do that can make you the kind of person you want to be.” said Cheng Dongfeng, director of West Anhui University.

【1】People thought the post-1990s generation was ________ according to Paragraph 1.

A．self-centered and dependent

B．independent and strong minded

C．strong-minded and hard-working

D．responsible and hard-working

【2】The post-1990s generation admires successful businessmen for their ________.

A．experience

B．devotion

C．wealth

D．will

【3】Which of the following best describes young people in the UK?

A．They are sociable.

B．They are hard-drinking.

C．They have healthier hobbies.

D．They behave more impolitely.

【4】What can we infer (推断) according to the text?

A．The post-1990s generations behaved gently in public.

B．Each post-1990s generation gets good education.

C．The post-1990s generation is successful in business.

D．Be yourself, and everyone can make a difference.

【5】What’s the text mainly about?

A．What the post-1990s generation is really like.

B．How the post-1990s generation learns good manners.

C．Why the post-1990s generation likes successful businessmen.

D．When the post-1990s generation has a strong sense of social responsibility.

26、   We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there’s always something staring at us right under our nose but we don’t see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst.

When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult.

The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视) it.

Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so, but because we realize it’s for our own good.

Happy people don’t just accept change; they embrace (拥抱) it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change.

Jane always tells everyone that she doesn’t have the courage to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!

Self-improvement may not be everybody’s favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we’re beginning to take things light and become happy.

【1】The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that ________.

A.we learn our lessons when we experience pain

B.we are responsible for the problems we meet

C.life fails us when we get into the wrong way

D.life is a long journey full of ups and downs

【2】What is the key to solving Jane’s problem?

A.She needs to remember why she started.

B.She has to know how to get on with people.

C.She has to realize she is not what she is in her story.

D.She needs to understand the importance of confidence.

【3】The writer probably agrees that ________.

A.the world tells us how to improve ourselves

B.people change when they find it easy to do that

C.welcoming change in life is a drive to become better

D.enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life simpler

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Is it important to take things light?

B.Is it necessary to embrace challenges?

C.To hold on to the last moment or to give up?

D.To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?

27、As kids， we learn how to write， maybe play a musical instrument and draw. So why don’t we learn to code(编码) computer programs too? What coding has in common with writing， playing music and creating art is that it lets you bring your ideas to life. Coding is all about creativity and that’s why I love it.

Creating with code

CoderDojo helps young people around the world to learn computer programming for free. When I went to my first CoderDojo class in Dublin City University in Ireland， at age nine， I didn’t know anything about coding or even  such a thing. It was a great feeling that I think every young person should experience!

By going to CoderDojo every week， I learned how to make websites， apps and games. One of my apps is called Auto-Journalist. It can help journalists(记者) and interviewees do interviews even if they are both really busy or live in different time zones. It is still in development， and it first appeared at an event called Coolest Projects Awards， where young people get to show the public what they have created with code. It’s so much fun to share one’s creations， and to see what everyone else has made too.

Learning environment

For the past three years I have also been helping to teach other young people at CoderDojo DCU. In recent years I have also noticed many more girls attending CoderDojo DCU to try out coding. This has a lot to do with the CoderDojo girls’ classes—girls and young women take part in it with their friends， and it doesn’t feel like coding is a “boy thing”. It is really wonderful to see this， because we need more girls and women in STEM (Science， Technology， Engineering and Math). It’s a good way to learn more about technology.

Start early

One of the main things I have learned in the last few years is that coding is not only for adults， coding is for young people， too. And when you are a child， it is a great time to start coding， because your imagination is the limit(限制) for what you can create!

Want to learn more? Find out if there is a CoderDojo near you at www.coderdojo.com or set one up yourself! Also check out Code.org which has lots of fun drag-and-drop coding games.

【1】In the writer’s first coding class， she_________.

A. made apps and games   B. created a web page

C. wrote for newspapers   D. did some interviews

【2】Why do more girls begin to learn coding?

A. There are coding classes for girls.

B. Girls want to learn a “boy thing”.

C. There are more girls in STEM.

D. Girls can meet cool boys there.

【3】What does the writer think of coding?

A. It is better than playing music.

B. It limits children’s imagination.

C. It stops people from learning fast.

D. It helps children with their creativity.

【4】What is probably the best title for this passage?

A. Start Coding as Early as Possible

B. Come for Fun in CoderDojo Class

C. Kids Should Have Chances to Learn to Code

D. STEM Is Calling for More Girls and Women
