26、Scientists find that they are able to see the future by offering each four-year-old child a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly (急切地) for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident（自信的） and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑)early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible(顽固的).

Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional(情感) intelligence which doesn’t show up on an IQ test. The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists’ concerns. But brain theory can’t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant(抵制的) soul.

Here comes the opinion of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence：When it comes to predicting people’s success, brain ability measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.

Emotional quotient (EQ) is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together；how one’s ability to handle stress, for example, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients(要素)for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20％；the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.

While this relatively new field of emotional intelligence is taken seriously now, some researchers still fear that EQ invites misuse.

【1】The experiment （实验）with the four-year-old kids shows that ________.

A．the age of four is a good time for scientific experiment

B．the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success

C．emotional intelligence won’t show up until adulthood

D．candy can be used to measure a person’s emotional intelligence

【2】The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”

A．kind

B．grateful

C．optimistic

D．excited

【3】Which of the following is true of EQ and IQ according to the text?

A．The higher a person’s EQ is, the higher his or her IQ is.

B．The higher a person’s IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.

C．Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.

D．Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together

【4】What is most likely to be written in the next paragraph that follows?

A．Information about famous people with high EQ.

B．Examples showing the bad voice about EQ.

C．Some reasons why EQ is relatively new field.

D．Strong demands for basic emotional education.

27、While inventions like the wheel and the Internet have changed the way the world works today, there are some creations that never quite got off the ground. Let’s look at the strangest inventions from across the globe.

THE TOMATO-FEEDING ROBOT

Japanese juice seller, Kagome, invented a robot that will feed you tomatoes with its long metal arms extended on either side of your face while you run. Originally created for the Tokyo Marathon, the robot even has a timer so that tomato-eating runners won’t use up their supply too quickly.

THE ROLLING BENCH

It’s lunchtime and many people may be looking for a park bench to sit on, but the rain has made every surface humid. This is when the rolling bench comes in. When one side is too wet, a handle on the side can roll up another dry side for better sitting conditions. The inventions come from designer Sung Woo Park, from Seoul in South Korea.

THE LED SLIPPERS(拖鞋)

We all hate hurting our toes in the dark, but a revolutionary footwear design can prevent this from happening again. The slightly strange LED slippers are designed to be comfortable, yet shine your path at night. With two in-built LED lights at the top of each slipper, the users can direct their toes at any area that needs light.

THE FOOT-POWERED BICYCLE

It’s the unusual invention of German designers Tom Hambrock and Juri Spetter. Besides an unusual appearance, its function is also slightly strange, as the user must run to get the bicycle moving. As soon as the riders have enough momentum(动力), they’re able to rest their feet on the back wheel and use the handlebars to control its direction.

C. They are powered by electricity.

D. They can serve us in different ways.

The Bregenz Festival is held every year from July to August in Vorarlberg, Austria. It has the world's largest stage on the water. The performances are different every year but they are usually united by one theme. The decorations （装饰）are very impressive and are worth seeing.

29、Running can be a polarizing (两极分化的) subject. Most people fall into one of two camps: those who love running every morning, and those who would sooner do anything to avoid it. For most of my life, I was planted in the second camp.

I always hated running. At age 12, I remember entering a neighborhood 5K with my dad; I also remember placing dead last, followed by only the police car driving patiently behind me. Three years later, I didn't make the junior volleyball team because I couldn't run a mile in under 10 minutes. Every time I ran, I felt as though failure — in some form or another — was the only possible result.

The summer after my freshman year, though, I took a job at a summer camp in Connecticut, where I got paid to be a kid again. I spent my days keeping an eye on different camp activities. When it came to exercise, running was my only choice. So, I made myself a promise: Every day, I would run for a while. By most runners' standards, it wasn't far; I guessed it was only about a mile. But I decided to do it every day, no matter how long it took. The exercise lasted for 61 days — the entire time I spent at camp that summer.

I started to feel better about myself. But to my great surprise, I learned to love running, too. I went from fearing the sport to loving it. I've finished seven marathons (马拉松) and more shorter races than I can remember, and now I am a running coach. These were the secrets I discovered to changing my way of looking at life.

【1】What was the author's attitude to running at first?

C．He didn't do well in running­related sports.

D．He didn't join in the volleyball team on purpose.

【3】What decision did the author make in the camp?

A．To run every day.

B．To do a part­time job.

C．To fully relax himself in the camp.

D．To take part in different activities.

【4】How does the author look at running after the camp?

A．It is a difficult thing to do.

B．It has become a boring sport.

C．It makes no difference to him.

D．It has changed his life in a good way.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

One day my grandfather gave me a gift—a piggy bank. It had an opening through which one could put money in. But the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out.

"That's the whole idea," my grandfather explained. "The piggy bank will help you save your money so that, at the end of the year, you might have enough for that bike you dream about." He added, "Will you put some of the money given by me in the following days into the piggy bank?" I said “yes" and promised.

Whenever he gave me a little bit of money, he would say, "This is for spending. But you can save some and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts, it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank. For some time, this worked fine. I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins. As it became heavier, I grew excited, dreaming about what I could do with my savings.

One day my friend and I visited the new ice-cream shop in town. but we didn't have enough money to buy just one ice cream. So my friend asked me to take some money out of my piggy bank. "No, I can't." I replied. "There is an opening for putting the money in, but no way for taking any out. Besides, my grandfather told me that I need to save money until the end of the year."

"Come on…" said my friend. Finally, I gave in. We took the piggy bank to the park and tried our best to shake out the money. We succeeded. From then on, I became good at taking money out of my piggy bank. Soon, it became a habit. And I started taking out money whenever I wanted it.

One day I was doing that again when my grandfather walked in. I was frightened.

注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右；

The piggy bank fell out of my hands and broke.
