2 . 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填如空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项
    1    You can find it on buildings, sidewalks, street signs and trash cans from Tokyo to Paris, from Moscow to Cape Town. Street art has become a global culture. Even art museums and galleries are collecting the works of street artists.
Street art started very secretly because it was illegal to paint on public and private property without permission.     2    Some think it is a crime and others think it is a very beautiful new form of culture. Art experts say that the street art movement began in New York in the 1960s. Young adults painted words and other images on the walls and trains. This colorful style of writing became known as graffiti(涂鸦), whose art showed that young people wanted to rebel against society.
Street artists do their work for different reasons.     3    They choose street art because it is closer to the people. Some artists try to express their political opinion in their works. Others like to do things that are not allowed and hope they can’t be caught. Advertising companies also use street art in their ads because it gives people the impressions (印象) of youth and energy.
    4    Artists can show their pictures to people all over the world. Many people, however, say that seeing a picture on the Internet is never as good as seeing it alive.
    5    There, it will continue to change and grow.

3 . The Value of Tears

Tears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. Tears leave you embarrassed and without energy. Still, crying is a fact of life, and your tears are very useful. Even when you’re not crying, they make a film over the eye’s surface.    1    

When tears fall, they reduce stress. But we tend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. “People worry about showing their emotions, afraid that once they lose control they’ll never get it back.”    2     After we cry, the feelings that caused the tears often disappear.

Sometimes people become much stressed and can’t cry. Whatever emotion they are feeling—shock, anger, fear, or sadness—is being held back.

But everyone has the need to cry. Psychologist Vera Diamond explains that her treatment often consists of giving people permission to cry.     3    Patients practice crying just to become used to expressing emotions. She suggests safe, private places to cry, like under the bedcovers or in the car. Crying is a way of reducing tension, but people don’t like it when others cry because it makes them tense.    4     And they’ll do just about anything to make you stop.

In certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. It’s good not to cry during a tense business discussion.    5    You should also act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angry as you like. It will help you feel better. “And,” she adds, “Once your tears have taken away the stress, you can begin to think calmly of ways to deal with the problem.”

Tears are a sign of our ability to feel. If you find yourself near someone crying, deal with it. And never be afraid to cry yourself.

A．They too may be holding back a need to cry.

B．They cry for different reasons.

C．She gives crying exercises.

D．It contains a chemical against infection.

E．The fact is that no emotion lasts forever.

F．It forms in response to the stress on the surface of the eye.

G．But once you’re safely behind closed doors, don’t just cry.

10 . Moral science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect. Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality is not a science, strictly speaking. It is too much of a social phenomenon, and also has too much of the personal and subjective things mixed within. Besides, morality itself changes with generations. So it is impossible to be defined in a textbook.
I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral lessons, which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness. It had little effect and left no impression on me, though.
If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools, it needs a participatory(参与其中的) approach. When you tell a child about morals, you also have to deal with social norms（规范）and cultural differences. You have to explain that morality can be subjective, and be able to co-exist in society. You will probably have to refer to the morals of the present time.
The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him what is valued. If a child likes his friend, you have to make the child think about why. Once the child notices and recognizes goodness in others, he or she is likely to develop it as well.
In fact, children learn most of their morals by watching people around them. They absorb behavior patterns from teachers and older students. They watch to see what is rewarded and who is punished. They learn on the sports field and through social work. Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact, and watch you support correct values and reward good behavior.
1. Which is NOT the reason that moral science is taught in schools but with little effect?

A．Morality doesn’t strictly belong to a science

B．Morality is more like a social phenomenon.

C．Different generations have different moral ideas.

D．Morality can’t be written down in textbooks.

2. The author describes his own experience of having moral lessons in order to _____.

A．explain telling lies is not moral for little children.

B．advise people should be rewarded for their goodness.

C．prove moral lessons in schools have little effect.

D．show he has no opinions about moral science.

3. When you tell a child about morals, you should________.

A．teach him to share personal moral ideas with others

B．tell him about social norms and cultural differences

C．explain that nobody can influence his moral ideas.

D．say that the present morals are likely to be changed.

4. What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A．The best way of teaching children about morals.

B．The value of teachers’ setting a good example

C．The influence of people’s behavior on morals.

D．The importance of rewarding good behavior.
