30、anize activities D. gives members discounts for their purchase B My fifteen-year-old son has just returned from abroad with rolls of exposed film and a hundred dollars in uncashed travelers checks, and is asleep at the moment. His blue duffel (粗呢) bag lies on the floor where he dropped it. Obviously
31、, he postponed as much sleep as he could: when he walked in and we hugged, his electrical system suddenly switched off, and he headed directly for the bed, where I imagine he beat his old record of sixteen hours. It was his first trip overseas, so weeks before it, I pressed travel books on him, and
32、a tape cassette (录音带) of useful French phrases; drew up a list of people to visit; advised him on clothing and other things. At 6 the luggage store where we went to buy him a suitcase, he headed for the duffels, saying that suitcases were more for old people. During the trip, he called home three ti
33、mes: from London, Paris, and a village named Ullapool. Near Ullapool, he climbed a mountain in a rainstorm that almost blew him off. In the village, a man spoke to him in Gaelic, and, too polite to interrupt, my son listened to him for ten or fifteen minutes, trying to nod in the right places. The F
34、rench he learned from the cassette didnt hold water in Paris. The French he talked to shrugged and walked on. When my son called, I sat down at the kitchen table and leaned forward and hung on every word. His voice came through clearly, though two of the calls were like ship-to-shore communication.
35、When I interrupted him with a “Great!” or a “Really?”, I knocked a little hole in his communication. So I just sat and listened. I have never listened to a telephone so attentively and with so much pleasure. It was wonderful to hear news from him that was so new to me. In my book, he was the first m
36、an to land on the moon, and I knew that I had no advice to give him and that what I had already given was probably not much help. The unused checks are certainly evidence of that. Youth travels light. No suitcase, not much luggage and a slim expense account, and yet he went to the scene, and came ba
37、ck safely. I sit here amazed. The night when your child returns with dust on his shoes from a country youve never seen is a night you would gladly turn into a week. 43.

39、 important to listen to your childs story. B. Its easy to interrupt the chat with your child. C. The author is proud of her son landing on the moon. D.

40、ial dangers. B. The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. C. Communication between parents and children is extremely important. D. Its a win-win choice to give a child space to experience and explore. 7 C Runners who encounter visual and auditory (听觉的) distractions may be m
41、ore likely to suffer leg injuries, according to a research by the Association of Academic Physiatrists in Las Vegas. Runners often seek distractions from the task at hand. Whether it is music, texting, daydreaming, taking in the sights, or propping a book up on the treadmill (跑步机), more often than n
42、ot a distraction is welcome. But, researchers from the University of Florida have recently discovered that those distractions may lead to injury. Daniel Herman, MD, PhD, assistant professor at University of Florida, and his team conducted a research on the effect of visual and auditory distractions
43、on 14 runners to determine what effect, if any, these distractions would have on things such as heart rate, how much a runner breathes per minute, how much oxygen is consumed by the body, the speed in which runners apply force to their bodies, and the force the ground applies to the runners bodies w
44、hen they come in contact with it. The runners were all injury free at the time of the study and ran 31 miles each week. Dr. Hermans team had each participant run on a treadmill three separate times. The first time was without any distractions. The second time added a visual distraction, during which
45、 the runners concentrated on a screen displaying different letters in different colors with the runners having to note when a specific letter-color combination appeared. The third time added an auditory distraction similar to the visual distraction, with the runners having to note when a particular
46、word was spoken by a particular voice. When compared to running without distractions, the participants had faster application of force to their left and right legs, called loading rate, with auditory and visual distractions. They also experienced an increased amount of force from the ground on both
47、legs, called ground reaction force, with auditory distractions. Finally, the runners tended to breathe heavier and have higher heart rates with visual and auditory distractions than without any distractions at all. “Running in environments with different distractions may unfavorably affect running p
48、erformance and injury risk,” explains Dr. Herman. “Sometimes these things cannot be avoided, but you may be able to minimize potentially cumulative (累积的) effects. For example, when running a new route in a noisy environment such as during a destination marathon, you may want to skip listening to som
49、ething which may require more attentionlike a new song playlist.” Dr. Hermans team will continue to investigate the potential relationship between distracted running and leg injuries, and any effect this relationship has on different training techniques that use auditory or visual cues. 47. Paragrap
50、h 2 tells us the research _. A. process B. results C. questions D. reflection 48. Based on the research, runners with auditory distractions tended to _. A. breathe heavier and have lower heart rates B. get an increased amount of ground reaction force C. apply more force with less oxygen consumption
