When you turn on the television, put on your shoes or drive to a store, you're using energy.Energy is one of the most fundamental forces in the world. Animals use energy, to walk and rim.Trees and plants use energy to grow. People use it to work and play. Energy is everywhere,where in nature-in the light of the sun, in the wind, in the forest, in water currents and erupting volcanoes.Without energy, there is no life. We use our own energy constantly and we continually make use of all kinds of energy.
Energy can be divided into two different types: stored energy and dynamic energy. Stored energy is called potential energy, and the latter refers to energy in motion. K you stretch out a rubberband, this produces potential energy. If you let it go, it moves and produces the dynamic energy.

Passage Olie
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage．
“Most parents make well—meant efforts to set high goals to motivate and stimulate their children's learning and good behavior，”obsenres Sam Goldstein，a psychologist specializing in child development at the University of Utah. \child's limitations or strengths. \
In fact, many potentialities and limitations--in intelligence, character and mental health are laid down prior to birth. We may want our son or daughter to do better than we did at the same age, but if it's not in the cards, or genes, no amount of coaching or coaxing (诱导) wilt move them much beyond their natural gifts. In fact, the pressure may have the opposite effect.In most cases, the parents' urge only adds to their children's anxiety.
Trouble arises when we ignore the signs that a child isn't ready or able to live up to our expectations. If a child is not really good at what his parents are pushing him to do, he will be confronted with failures. And repeated failures may cause some children to set the bar too low for themselves, withdrawing from new experiences and missing out on opportunities to guarantee they won't fail again. When a child doesn't meet expectations, the parents may feel anger, which shows up as annoyance or frustration. Children may see their parents' disappointment as rejection,and these feelings can lead to hostility, emotional withdrawal, lack of ability and conduct problems or immoral behaviors.
The bottom line is that we must accept our children for who they are a.nd allow them to become what they will be. But don't misinterpret acceptance as permissiveness. Let children do what they want when they want to ; homework must be done, and family rules respected. It comes down to a delicate balance of control and acceptance.
Often kids will give us the clue we need to help them set and achieve realistic goals. The benefits of taking a realistic view of your child may surprise you. When parents are accepting,loving and supportive, children are often motivated to exceed your expectations.

A. permit children to do what they want B. overestimate their children's strengths
C. set goals beyond children's natural ability D. motivate their children all the time

23. Parents not only allow their children to becmne what they want, but also __【 】 A. keep a balance of control and acceptance B. help their children to discipline themselves C. urge their children to exceed their expectations
D. make well-meant efforts to stimulate their children
24. 'Children can do better than expected if their parents __ 【 】 A. accept their children as they are B. read child-development books
C. set high goals for their children D. teach family rules to their children
25. The best tide for the passage would be __ 【 】

D. The More You Demand, the Better Your Children Will Be Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Danger is waiting for you every time you step out of your front door. The hidden danger,however, is not a robber, but merely the sidewalk beneath your feet. Ahhough a short walk down the read may not normally be considered a dangerous activity, a recent government study suggests otherwise.
Pedestrian's (行人的) danger tripping up on uneven or damaged sidewalks occurs twice every 100 meters, causing injuries which can match those suffered in a car crash. At least 600,000 trips on sidewalks require medical treatment across the country every year, according to the Pedestrians Association; the government says the figure for serious injuries is a small part of that,though.
Although the elderly and disabled are the most likely victims of uneven sidewalks, it has caused injuries among thousands of pedestrians of all ages, according to one analyst of the Pedestrians Association's London Office. \
life-changing injury for older people, which leaves them wheelchair-bound or having to walk with a stick,\he said. \fall can also make people lose confidence, forcing them to stay indoors. \
According to Pedestrians Association director Ben Mark, the hidden dangers of walking along a sidewalk are not clear by a tack of comprehensive data, concerning the true extent of the problem. He said, \受伤人员) as far as tile National Road Casualty Statistics are concerued--it only counts if you've been hit by a car or a lorry on the road. It's really bad that we don't know how many people are injured by sidewalks. Nobody keeps track of the data. \26.

Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
America's election day is 7 November. On that day citizens who wish to will cast their ballots(选票) for the presidential candidate they prefer. The result of this process is called the popular vote. However, not one of the votes cast on election day actually goes directly to a particular candidate. Why? It has to do with the electoral college.
The electoral college was created in response to a problem encountered during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, where delegates (代表) were trying to determine the best way to choose the president. If Congress were to elect the president, he would be too easily controlled by the legislature. If all the citizens were to vote direcdy for the president, there might be too many local candidates and none representing a wide body of opinion ; or it might be difficult to count the votes cast over a vast country.
The framers of the Constitution (宪法制定者) intended that the electors, chosen for their wisdom, should come together and choose on behalf of the people. In fact, the swift rise of political parties guaranteed that the electoral system never worked as the framers had intended; instead, national parties quickly came to dominate the election campaigns. The electors became mere figureheads representing the state branches of the parties who got them chosen, and their votes were predetermined and predictable. But anyhow, America has retained the electoral college to choose its president and vice-president.
There is some variation among states in how electors are appointed, yet generally they are chosen by tbe popular vote. Each political party in a state chooses a llst of local worthies to be members of the electoral college if the party's presidential candidate wins in the popular vote in the state. Members of the electoral college have the moral obligation to vote for the candidate who won the popular vote in their state. This moral duty, plus the fact that electors are members of the same political party as the presidential candidate, ensures that the outcome in the electoral college is a valid reflection of the popular vote in 7 November.
31. The term ' the electoral college' in the passage means __ [ ] A. a body of persons voting out the president B. a body of persons voting out the voters
C. a body of scholars for study on presidential election
D. a body of persons counting the votes over a vast country
32. The framers of the Constitution intended that the electors should [ ]
A. be chosen among ordinary people
B. choose the president on behalf of the people
C. choose the president on behalf of the political parties D. be chosen among famous persons from each political parties
33. In the third paragraph, the word \ A. political figures B. nominal electors
C. constitutional leaders D. state representatives
34. Members of the electoral college are supposed to_______ [ ] A. east their ballots for the candidate they like B. carry cut the presidential election on 7 November C. attend the Constitutional Convention on 7 November
