35、g prehension (12%)Chimps(黑猩猩)will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their territory. But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings, they have little instinct (本能) to help one another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly d

36、ecline to share food with their children. Who are able from a young age to gather their own food.In the laboratory, chimps dont naturally share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or, with no great effort, a plate that also provides food for a

37、neighbor to the next cage, he will pull at randomhe just doesnt care whether his neighbor gets fed or not. Chimps are truly selfish.Human children, on the other hand are extremely corporative. From the earliest ages, they decide to help others, to share information and to participate a achieving mon

38、 goals. The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of expensive with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18months see an worried adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.There are several reasons to believ

39、e that the urges to help, inform and share are not taught. but naturally possessed in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train children to behave socially. Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children a

40、re remanded. A third reason is that social intelligence. Develops in children before their general cognitive（认知的）skills, at least when pared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomasello, the children did no better than the chimps on the physical world tests, but were considerably better at understan

41、ding the social world.The cure of what childrens minds have and chimps dont in what Tomasello calls what. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking. But that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a “we”, a g

42、roup that intends to work toward a shared goal.66.what can we learn from the experiment with chimps?A.Chimps seldom care about others interests.B.Chimps tend to provide food for their children.C.Chimps like to take in their neighbors food.D.Chimps naturally share food with each other.67.Micheal Toma

43、sellos tests on young children indicate that they A.have the instinct to help others.B.know how to offer help to adults.C.know the world better than chimps.D.trust adults with their hands full.68.The passage is mainly about .A.the helping behaviors of young children.B.ways to train childrens shared

44、intentionality.C.cooperation as a distinctive human nature.D.the development of intelligence in children.BEvery man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone, not in features but in footsteps. As he grows you also age, and your ambitions bee more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in yo

45、ur footsteps, could probably acplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions.My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until thelast moment. Book reports werent written until the final threat.Ive been a ne

46、wspaperman all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working toward her masters degree in English. But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a “votech” student（技校学生）. Theyre called “motorheads” by the rest of the student body.When a secretary in my office first called him “mot

47、orhead”, I was shocked. “Hey, hes a good kid, ”I wanted to say. “And smart, really. ”I learned later that motorheads are, indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they dont often make school honor rolls（光荣榜）.But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an ex

48、perience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices dont have the abilities that motorheads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to repair it was estimated at $800. “Hey, I can fix it, ”said Jody. I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose.My

49、son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got parts（零件） from a junkyard, nontoasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbours and coworkers trust their car repair to him.Since that first repair job, a broken airconditioner, a nonfunctioning washer and a nontoasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbor

50、s and coworkers trust their car repairs to him.These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes.I have learned a lot from my motorhead：publishers need printers, engineers need m

51、echanics,and architects need builders. Most important, I have learned that fathers dont need clones in footsteps or anywhere else.My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made mine.69. What used to be the authors hope for his son?A.To avoid being his clone.B.To resemble him in appearance.

52、C.To develop in a different direction.D.To reach the authors unachieved goals.70. In the authors eyes, motorheads are _.A.tidy and hardworkingC.lazy but brightB.cheerful and smartD.relaxed but rude71. What did the author realize in the end?A.It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path.B.It

53、 is important for one to make the honor roll.C.Architects play a more important role than builders.D.Motorheads have greater ability than office workers.CIn the United States alone,over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year.Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste l

54、ike puters and personal digital assistants.The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster than traditional garbage as a whole.Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver.A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious meta

55、ls was relatively small in parison to total waste,the concentration(含量)of gold and other precious metals was higher in so-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals.Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed,the re

56、cycling process often is carried out in poor countries,in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material, up to 100 times more, than the material contained in the finished prod

57、ucts. Consider again the cell-phone, and imagine the mines that produced those metals, the factories needed to make the box and packaging (包装)it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in t

58、hat “ the production, distribution, and use of productsas well as management of the resulting wasteall result in greenhouse gas release.” Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste at the startfor instance, buying reusable products and recycling.In many countries the concept of

59、 extended producer responsibility is being considered or hasbeen put in place as an incentive(动机)for reducing waste. If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products, would they reduce the packaging in the first place?Governments incentive to require producers to take

60、 responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money. Why, they ask, should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap(气泡垫)that encased your television?From the governments point of view, a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibilit

61、y is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.72.By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that _.A.the weight of e-goods is rather smallB.e-waste deserves to be made good use ofC.natural minerals contain more precious metalsD.the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste73.The responsibility of e-waste treatment should be extended_ .A.from producers to governmentsB.from governments to producersC.from individuals to distributorsD.from dist
