Increasing numbers of parents in the U.S. are choosing to teach their children at home. In fact, the U.S.Department of Education has estimated that in 1999, about 850,000 children were being homeschooled Someeducational experts say that the real number is double this estimate, and the ranks of homeschooled childrenseem to be growing at the average rate of about eleven percent every year.At one time, there was theory accounting for homeschooling: it was traditionally used for students whocould not attend school because of behavioral or learning difficulties. Today, however, more parents are takingon the responsibility of educating their own children at home due to their dissatisfaction with the educationalsystem. Many parents are unhappy about class size, as well as problems inside the classroom. Teacher shortagesand lack of funding mean that, in many schools, one teacher is responsible for thirty or forty students. Thechildren are, therefore, deprived of the attention they need. Escalating classroom violence has also motivatedsome parents to remove their children from school.Although there have been lot of arguments for and against it, homeschooling in the U.S. has become amulti-million dollar industry, and it is growing bigger and bigger. There are now plenty of websites, supportgroups, and conventions that help parents protect their rights and enable them to learn more about educatingtheir children. Though once it was the only choice for troubled children, homeschooling today is an acceptedalternative to an educational system that many believe is failing.Question 31 The past participle homeschooled in the first paragraph is best equivalent to “_____at home”.A. taught B. self-learned C. untaught D. self-studiedQuestion 32 This estimated number was presented by _____.A. governmental office B. school teachers C. the parents D. homeschooled childrenQuestion 33 According to some experts, the exact number of homeschooled children in the US in the last year of the 20 th century must be _____.A. 1,600,000 B. 850,000 C. 1,900,000 D. 1,700,000Question 34.

You can usually tell when your friends are happy or angry by the looks on their faces or by their actions. This is usefulbecause reading their emotional expressions helps you to know how to respond to them. Emotions have evolved to help usrespond to important situations and to convey our intentions to others. But does raising the eyebrows and rounding themouth say the same thing in Minneapolis as it does in Madagascar? Much research on emotional expressions has centeredon such questions. According to Paul Ekman, the leading researcher in this area, people speak and understand substantially the same"facial language". Studies by Ekman's group have demonstrated that humans share set of universal emotionalexpressions that testify to the common biological heritage of the human species. Smiles, for example, signal happinessand frowns indicate sadness on the faces of people in such far- flung places as Argentina, Japan, Spain, Hungary, Poland ,Sumatra ,the United States, Vietnam, the jungles of New Guinea, and the Eskimo villages north of Artic Circle. Ekmanand his colleagues claim that people everywhere can recognize at least seven basic emotions: sadness, fear, anger, disgust,contempt, happiness, and surprise. There are, however, huge differences across cultures in both the context and intensityof emotional displays the so called display rules. In many Asian cultures, for example, children are taught to controlemotional responses especially negative ones while many American children are encouraged to express their feelingsmore openly. Regardless of culture, however, emotions usually show themselves, to some degree, in people's behavior.From their first days of life, babies produce facial expressions that communicate their feelings.The ability to read facial expressions develops early, too. Very young children pay close attention to facial expressions,and by age five, they nearly equal adults in their skill at reading emotions on people's faces. This evidence all points to abiological underpinning for our abilities to express and interpret basic set of human emotions. Moreover, as CharlesDarwin pointed out over century ago, some emotional expressions seem to appear across species boundaries. Cross -cultural psychologists tell us that certain emotional responses carry different meanings in different cultures. For example,what emotion do you suppose might be conveyed by sticking out your tongue? For Americans, this might indicate disgust,while in China it can signify surprise. Likewise, grin on an American face may indicate joy, while on Japanese face itmay just as easily mean embarrassment. Clearly, culture influences emotional expressions.Question 38:Unlike American children, Asian children are encouraged to display their emotions openly conceal their positive emotionsC control their emotions change their behaviourQuestion 39 The word " evolved " is closest in meaning to ________.A. increased B. reduced C. developed D. simplifiedQuestion 40: Young children ________.A. make amazing progress in controlling their emotionsB. take time to control their facial expressionsC. are sensitive towards others' emotionsD. spend long time learning to read others' emotionsD. spend long time learning to read others' emotionsQuestion 41: According to the passage, we respond to others by ________.A. watching their actions B. observing their looksC. observing their emotional expressions D. looking at their facesQuestion42: The biggest difference lies in ________.A. how often positive emotions are shown B. how emotional responses are controlledC. how intensive emotions are expressed D. how long negative emotions are displayedQuestion 43: Paul Ekman is mentioned in the passage as an example of ________.A. investigators on universal emotional expressions B. researchers on universal languageC. researchers who can speak and understand many languages D. lacked many main ingredientsQuestion 44: The best title for the passage is ________.A. ways to control emotional expressions B. cultural universals in emotional expressionsC.
