they are about 18 weeks old. In his experiments, Bower used a toy train that went behind a screen. When 16-week-old and 22-week-old babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to reappear. If the experimenter took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies seemed surprised not to see the train. This seems to show that all the babies had a sense of object permanence. But the second part of the experiment showed that this was not really the case. The researcher substituted a ball for the train when it went behind the screen. The 22-week-old babies seemed surprised and looked back to the left side for the train. But the 16-week -old babies did not seem to notice the switch. Thus, the 16-week-old babies seemed to have a sense of “something permanence,” while the 22-week-old babies had a sense of object permanence related to a particular object. 60.

In the early part of the twentieth century, racism was widespread in the United States. Many African Americans were not given equal opportunities in education or employment. Marian Anderson (1897-1993) was an African American woman who gained fame as a concert singer in this climate of racism. She was born in Philadelphia and sang in church choirs during her childhood. When she applied for admission to a local music school in 1917, she was turned down because she was black. Unable to attend music school, she began her career as a singer for church gatherings. In 1929, she went to Europe to study voice and spent several years performing there. Her voice was widely praised throughout Europe. Then she returned to the US in 1935 and became a top concert singer after performing at Town Hall in New York City.

Racism again affected Anderson in 1939. When it was arranged for her to sing at Constitution Hall in Washington, DC, the Daughters of the American Revolution opposed it because of her color. She sang instead at the Lincoln Memorial for over 75 000 people. In 1955, Anderson became the first black soloist to sing win the Metropolitan Opera of New York City. The famous conductor Toscanini praised her voice as “heard only once in a hundred years”. She was a US delegate to the United Nations in 1958 and won the UN peace prize in 1977. Anderson eventually triumphed over racism.

阅读短文，根据所读内容在表格的空格处填上适当的单词或短语，每空不超过3个单词。 Happy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy ? Of course they do．Birthdays celebrate the day when we were born．Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity（成熟）—or so we hope．We all like to imagine that we are getting wiser and not just older．Most of us enjoy seeing the wonder of growth in others, as well．For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud．For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process．But growing old? That is a different story．ks5u

Growing old is not exactly for people in youth-oriented（ 以 年轻人为 中心）American culture．Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young．As the old saying goes, “You’re young as you feel．” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old．People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom．But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least “young at heart”．

Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden．Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get by．Retirement at the age of 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income．Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference．Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care, and housing．Some even experience age discrimination（歧视）．American sociologist Pat Moore once dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets．She was often treated rudely--even cheated and robbed．However, dressed

as a young person, she received much more respect．

Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast．Why? People are living longer．Fewer babies are being born．And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the group of the elderly．America may soon be a place where wrinkles（皱纹）are “in”．Marketing experts are ready noticing this growing group of consumer． Title: Different Opinions About 71._____________ ks5u 72________ General idea Descriptions / Details Growing older, being mature and wiser A wonderful process: children75.__________ new things, 74.________ enjoying another birthday party Positive attitude About the old Being respected by the young 76._______ as a source of experience and wisdom Living happily in the “golden years” Never being young again Feeling lonely in a youth-oriented culture 77.___________ problem: personal income 78.___________ 73.__________ Health problem: suffering from poor nutrition and other diseases Housing problems: poor and simple 79._________ problems: being ill-treated --- experiencing age discrimination, cheating and robbery Improving 80._________________ benefits Solution The young caring for and respecting the old

My dear Classmates, we each are thinking about the future. What is mine? I've made up my mind to become a middle school teacher. Does it sound surprising? No, I began to have this dream when I was only a child. I love children. Imagine how happy we are together! I don't think that it is just waste of time to deal with them all the year round. On the contrary to me it would mean happiness. As we all can see, teachers are badly needed in our country, but not many of us want to become teachers. The main reason for this is that teacher's work is too hard and they get too little. In spite of that, I'm determined to give all my life to the cause of education.
