24、   Parents of very young children know this：You catch your child in the act of stealing the cookie—the evidence（证据）of candy written on his or her face. However, the kid often gives a denial, "I didn't do it!"

Learning to tell the truth, even at the risk of punishment, is an important part of moral（道德）development, and new research suggests it can take seven or more years for kids to get there.

Early in 2017 Professor Craig E. Smith published a study. He and his workmates chose 48 children between four and nine years of age. They told the kids a story about a boy or girl doing something wrong，such as taking a classmate's toy or candy, and then either lying about the wrongdoing to a parent or confessing（承认错误） it. In each case, they asked the children, "How would the child feel? How would the mother feel?"

The children's answers were generally divided according to age, which is in agreement with the above research, showing a gradual growth of moral understanding in early childhood. More of the four-to-five-year-olds thought the child in the story would feel better keeping the stolen candy, lying and getting unpunished. They imagined the parent in the study would be angry with the child who confessed. However, the seven-to-nine-year-olds were more likely to think the child would feel better confessing the wrongdoing and that the parent would have positive（积极的） feelings towards a confessor.

Smith says, "Kids of all ages who expect that a parent would feel happy about a child's confession are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie. Reward the honesty even if you feel you must punish the wrong action." He adds, what parents can learn from these studies is to listen calmly without getting angry right away when their child confesses.

Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting. It is easier when they are young. The potential（潜在的） mistakes carry greater risks, and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children.

【1】What does the expression "gives a denial," in Paragraph 1 mean?

A.refuses to tell the truth B.decides to blame the parent

C.prepares to accept the truth D.begins to shout at the parent

【2】What did Smith and his workmates find in their study?

A.Kids of all ages are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie.

B.Younger children would feel better confessing the wrongdoing.

C.Older kids thought parents would be angry with their confessions.

D.Older kids are more likely to confess to an act than younger children.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A.It's easy for kids to confess their mistakes.

B.Parents should at once punish the kids who lied.

C.It takes time for children to learn to tell the truth.

D.Parents should never get angry after kids' confessions.

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A.Why children like telling lies when they are young.

B.How children feel when they confess their mistakes.

C.Why parents must punish their children's wrong actions.

D.How parents should treat their children when they make mistakes.

27、

Shenzhen is well known for having a lot of different kinds of local birds as well as some visiting birds. Sometimes our city receives special and unexpected animal visitors, such as the lovely green magpie (鹊) from Southeast Asia.

The beautiful green bird, which is 35cm long, will take anyone’s breath away. The green magpie has a very loud call that will catch any wild animal’s attention quickly; however, its green color makes the bird quite difficult to be found, as it has perfectly the same color as the vegetation (植被) around it. In fact, this lovely bird has a lot of different color types that go from being totally blue to having a yellow belly (腹部) and a green back.

Green magpies are known for being social birds, usually flying together in a large number. Male and female green magpies also like to build their home together. The female bird will lay up to four eggs each time and it usually lasts three weeks before baby magpies come out of the eggs. These beautiful birds feed on almost any animal they can find and that they can eat, including insects, frogs, and even snakes.

It is quite unbelievable to have these amazing creatures visiting Shenzhen since this kind of bird is not a bird that will always come here. So it is lucky to have them around and enjoy the new visitors to our city. If we continue protecting Shenzhen’s green areas, it is very likely that in the near future we may have even more kinds of animals not only passing by, but staying among us forever.

B．The female bird can lay more than four eggs once.

C．It takes green magpies 21 days to come out of eggs.

D．Male green magpies build homes and female ones lay eggs.

28、在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其通顺。

I’m not normally a lucky person, but I entered a competition last month to win tickets for a rugby match at Twickenham. Two weeks ago, I was finishing my homework when my phone rang. I was one of the competition w【1】. No way! I couldn’t believe it! A few days later, I was sitting on a train with my dad. We were on our way to London.

When we arrived, I was amazed. I knew Twickenham was the largest rugby stadium in the world, but it’s h【2】-there’s enough room for 8,200 supporters. At the entrance we met Martin-our guide for the day. He showed us around the stadium and the museum. We learnt that the stadium is over 100 years old.

Before there was a stadium there, people g【3】 cabbages on the land, so it’s also known as “the Cabbage Patch”.

Next, Martin took us to our seats and the view was amazing. While we were waiting for the match to start, a band started playing and a group of dancers appeared. At 2:30, the match started. There are several different ways of getting points in rugby, so it’s a【4】 exciting to watch. After 40 minutes, it was half-time. The Australians were playing really well and they were winning 13-6. The England coach didn’t look p【5】. His team was losing by 7 points.

England began the second half well. Then Dad grabbed my arm and pointed at one of the England players. He was running with the ball and the Australians were trying to s【6】       him. He scored and the crowd went crazy! At full-time, England beat Australia 20-13. I was really happy!

From that moment, I knew I wanted to play rugby, but there’s only a boys’ team at my school. With my dad’s help, I found a girls’ team nearby and next week I will begin rugby training. My friends Ali and Matt think I’m mad, but I think they are old-fashioned. More and more w【7】 are beginning to take up sports like rugby, football and golf. Who knows? Maybe one day I’ll play for England at Twickenham.
