One night Peter received a call from his social worker asking， “Can you take in an 11-year-old boy just for the weekend？” It was just a few days after he had said goodbye to two brothers he was fostering （收养）. He told the social worker that he was deeply sad for the loss of the two boys that had just been reunited with their birth parents. Peter thought he didn’t have enough energy left to care for another child at the moment. But the worker convinced him.

The social worker arrived at Peter’s home with the boy at 3：00 am after driving four hours from another county （县）. There are few foster families in Oklahoma， so when a child enters the foster care system， it’s difficult for social workers to place him or her. Those older children， in fact， are much more difficult to place.

Peter decided to ask why Anthony， the boy， was in foster care. Then he knew that the boy was abandoned by his mother when he was 2. He was then placed with a family. But almost ten years later， the same family abandoned him at the hospital. Peter was shocked， “It’s like my life！”

The two have been together ever since. And on the 12th of November， Anthony finally got to share Peter’s last name officially. However， Peter didn’t stop fostering kids. “It’s hard to be a single foster dad but it’s worth every minute of it. We are about to have another child next month and we are excited.”

24. What word can best describe Peter according to Paragraph 1？

A. Kind. B. Rich. C. Busy. D. Serious.

25. When did the social worker leave for Peter’s home with the boy？

A. In the morning. B. In the afternoon. C. At night. D. At noon.

26. What can we infer from Peter’s words in Paragraph 3？

A. He needed a brother. B. He disliked the boy.

C. He worked at the hospital. D. He also had a terrible childhood.

27. What will Peter do a month later？

A. Take in another child. B. Find Anthony’s birth parents.

C. Help more children go to school. D. Take Anthony to visit the social worker.

C

Do you have a younger brother？ Does he always get in trouble？ Well， there might be some science behind that.

According to a report from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology， second-born boys are more likely than firstborns to behave badly， which could be why you from time to time consider your younger brothers or sisters sprites.

Researchers， who explored data from tens of thousands of sibling （兄弟姐妹） pairs from Denmark and Florida， found second-born boys are 20% to 40% more likely to have behavioral problems. If you’re the second-born child， you may want to have a little chat with your parents. The reason why second-born siblings may be worse behaved than firstborns is that parents tend to pay less attention to them.

“Second-born children tend to have less attention from the mother than their older siblings because first-born children experience their mother’s maternity leaves. Firstborns enjoy the rewards of not only their own time with Mom following their birth， but the time Mom takes off with younger siblings， too，” the authors explain.

It’s not just about the parents， however. Co-author Joseph Doyle said， “The first-born has role models， who are adults. And the second， later-born children have role models who are slightly unreasonable 2-year-olds， you know， their older siblings. The difference of parental investments （投入） and the sibling influences probably contribute to these differences we see in the labor market and what we find in behaviors against regulations， even against laws. It’s just very difficult to separate those two things because they happen at the same time.” The results， the authors argue， have an important effect on social policy （政策）.

28. What does the underlined word “sprites” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？

A. Losers. B. Troublemakers. C. Close playmates. D. Parents’ pets.

29. According to the report， what influences the second-born children’s behavior？

A. Challenges of their older siblings. B. Fewer chances of talking with others.

C. More family problems they face. D. The amount of attention from parents.

30. What does Doyle think of the older siblings？

A. They have different role models. B. They are good examples of the younger ones.

C. They affect the parental investments. D. They contribute to the younger ones’ problems.

31. What can be the best title for the text？

A. Parents Prefer First-born Kids B. Social Policy Guides Family Education

C. How Parents Improve Family Relationships D. Why the Second-born Tend to Be Misbehaved

D

It is often said that you can’t have too many friends. But it seems that there is a natural limit （限制） to the number of people we stay in touch with. A study found that when we make new friends， by starting a new job or going to university， we downgrade or even drop old ones. And while the friends may change， the number stays almost the same.

Oxford University researcher Felix Reed-Tsochas asked 24 students in the final months of school to list all their friends and relatives and say how close to them they were. The pupils filled in the questionnaire twice more after starting work or going to university. They were also given free mobile phones and agreed that researchers could use their bills to work out who they called， when and for how long.

Putting the two pieces of information together showed， unsurprisingly that most people have a small circle of close friends， who they spend most of their time talking to. This inner circle is surrounded by group after group of ever more distant friends. As the volunteers’ lives changed， this overall pattern， including the number of best friends， remained almost the same， meaning that some close friends from childhood were dropped or downgraded as new friendships were built.

Dr Reed-Tsochas said， “Maybe my best friend is no longer the same person but the amount of time I allocate （分配） to my best friend is still the same.” He added that this finding suggests that even with the coming of modern technology we are only capable of forming a limited number of true friendships.

Chester University researcher Dr Sam Roberts said， “Our results are likely to reflect limitations in the ability of humans to keep emotionally close relationships both because of limited time and because the emotional capital （情绪资本） that individuals can allocate between family members and friends is limited.”

32. What does the first sentence of the text suggest？

A. Having too many friends is not necessary. B. We should make a limited number of friends.

C. The more friends we make， the better. D. We can have many different friends.

33. What did Reed-Tsochas do to the volunteers in his study according to Paragraph 2？

A. Check their call records. B. Learn about their hobbies.

C. Track their job performance. D. Interview their schoolmates.

34. What did the researchers find from their study？

A. People value friendships a lot. B. People dislike dropping their old friends.

C. One’s attitude to friendship remains the same. D. The number of one’s best friends seldom changes.

35. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph？

A. To add background information. B. To give a possible explanation.

C. To offer some suggestions. D. To introduce a new topic.

Studies continue to show how important strong friendships are to our overall health. Here’re the rules you are supposed to know to keep strong and healthy friendships.

36 Everyone needs a support network. When you consider yourself the friend of another， you’re implicitly offering to be a part of his or her support network. What’s more， without trust and honesty， there is no authenticity （真实性） to the friendship.

Be all ears to your friends. Too often， we only “half hear” what others are telling us， and have a hard time making space for caring about others’ conditions. 37 If we don’t truly know what our friends need or can’t clearly express how we feel or what we need， friendships won’t survive or continue.

Throw away the judgment. 38 Good friends are able to realize that everyone is human. Friends don’t have to necessarily “like” or “approve” of their friends’ choices， but good friends will accept their friends’ choices no matter what.

Forgive （原谅） where you can—and seek forgiveness when you make a mess of something. No one promises to bring perfection to a relationship， so being willing to accept and forgive the weaknesses of others makes you more likely to build a lasting friendship. 39

Respect your friends and their boundaries （界限）. Everyone has a right to set up personal boundaries to feel safe and respected. Some friends may have a difficult time letting people get close to them for fear of being hurt. 40 Give them the space they need to feel comfortable， and let the relationship deepen over time.

A. Don’t crowd your friends.

B. Offer them what they need.

C. Support， trust， and honesty are given.

D. But friendships don’t need to be perfect.

E. True friends don’t judge each other’s choices.

F. However， friendships require attention and care.

G. It’s also important that we’re able to recognize when we make mistakes.

Whenever we are faced with problem， friendship plays an important part in help us out of trouble. There was time when I was too proud that I ignored my friends and refused to communicate with them. Therefore， there was no doubt that I was leaving alone， suffering from lonely and failure. Fortunate， a teacher impressed on me the value of friendship. From then on， I learned to communicate with friends or turn to them for help whenever I had difficulty finishing a task. Surely friendship had made a great difference.
