　　Ⅱ.阅读理解en,

　　I joined a volunteer group with my dad. I went on my first volunteer project in West Virginia. On the night we arrived,

　　we discovered that “our family” was living in a trailer(拖车) that was in poor condition. A crew had been working on it for two weeks,

　　but every time they finished one problem,

　　another surfaced.

　　We decided the only reasonable solution was to build a new house梥omething unusual but necessary under these circumstances. The family was overjoyed with their new house that was twenty by t hirty feet with three bedrooms,

　　a bath and a kitchen.

　　On Tuesday of that week,

　　while we were eating lunch together,

　　I asked the family's three boys,

　　Josh,

　　Eric and Ryan,

　　“What do you want for your new room？”Expecting toys and other gadgets that children usually ask for,

　　we were astonished when Josh responded,

　　“I just want a bed.”

　　The boys had never slept in a bed! They were accustomed to plastic mats. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night,

　　a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding.

　　When we saw the delivery truck coming,

　　we told the family about the surprise. We could hardly contain ourselves. It was like watching excited children on Christmas morning.

　　That afternoon,

　　as we fitted the frames of the beds together,

　　Eric ran into the house to watch us. Too dirty to enter his room,

　　he observed with wide­eyed enthusiasm from the doorway.

　　As my father slipped a pillowcase onto one of the pillows,

　　Eric asked,

　　“What is that？” ” he replied.

　　“What do you do with it？” Eric continued to ask.

　　you put your head on it,

　　” I answered softly. Tears came to my eyes as my father handed Eric the pillow.

　　“Oh…that's soft,

　　” he said,

　　hugging it tightly.

　　Now,

　　when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems urgent,

　　my dad gently asks,

　　“Do­you­have­a­pillow？”________.

　　A．working on a poor trailer

　　B．helping a poor family

　　C．donating beds and bedding

　　D．dealing with a housing problem

　　17．On hearing Josh's answer,

　　the writer was shocked because________.

　　A．the family lived in a trailer

　　B．he expected to get some toys

　　C．he didn't know what a bed was

　　D．the boys had no bed to sleep in

　　18．From the passage,

　　we can learn that Eric had never seen________ before.

　　A．a trailer

　　B．a truck

　　C．a pillow

　　D．a house

　　19．By saying “Do­you­have­a­pillow？”，

　　the writer's father means that________. sary

　　B．they should not waste money on small things

　　C．they should do more volunteer work for the poor

　　D．what he will buy is not what they want but a pillow

　　B

　　Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior.

　　One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards. Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.

　　They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Prisoner's Dilemma. The game is based on the tension between the interests of an individual and a group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group,

　　so they would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players,

　　at a cost to the punisher. Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation. The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded it the least. And the more a group punished itself,

　　the lower its earnings. The group with the most punishment earned twenty­five percent less than the group with the least punishment. The study appeared last month in the journal Science.

　　The other study involved children. It was presented last month in California at a conference on violence and abuse. Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More than eight hundred children were aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children were aged five to nine. The two groups were retested four years later,

　　and the study compared the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not.

　　The study says the IQs of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were. In the older group,

　　the difference was almost three points. The more they are spanked,

　　the slower their mental development is.

　　20．According to the first study,

　　we mainly infer that________.

　　A．the game is called Prisoner's Dilemma

　　B．the less a group punished itself,

　　the lower its earnings　nd study?

　　A．Children's IQs have much to do with physical punishment.

　　B．The study is about violence and abuse of children.

　　C．The children tested were divided into groups of four.

　　D．Children's mental development only relies on their IQs.

　　22．What does the underlined word “spanked” refer to?

　　A．Punished.

　　B．Blamed.

　　C．Tested.

　　D．Praised.

　　23．What might be the best title for the text?

　　A．The Best Way to Correct Misbehavior

　　B．Punishment Is the Best Way of Education

　　C．Cooperation Is the Most Successful Behavior

　　D．Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?
