22．（8分）A simple wooden box attached to 8-year-old Alex Benitez-Alvarez’s walker made it easier for the boy to carry school supplies and allowed him to do more things on his own.
“Now if he wants to go to the library and get a book out, he can.” said Tommy Johnson, one of three high school students who helped Benitez-Alvarez.
Their idea came from an engineering project that pairs young engineers with people from local special education programs. Engineering teams from Shakopee East and West junior high schools designed models of several devices to make their disabled partners’ lives easier. Some of the simplest ideas were the most useful, such as an adjustable chair to help a child put his or her shoes on. They also came up with special building blocks that can help blind babies learn by touch.
In an education system driven by exams, engineering teacher TJ Hendrickson said the project gave students the chance to create something they could actually see for themselves. “Students stopped worrying about their grades and started worrying about failing their clients,said Hendrickson, a teacher at Shakopee West Junior High.
Group projects encourage teamwork and motivate students differently from independent projects. In this case, the project also taught a much-needed lesson in developing people skills. The meetings also helped engineers add special touches to their finished products. Benitez-Alvarez, who loves soccer, got the Minnesota United logo and a soccer ball printed on his wooden storage box.
The project encouraged students with special needs to describe their physical disabilities while also teaching engineers about the struggles of living with a disability.
“Everyone in the world should do this.” said Stephanie Betley, a teacher at Shakopee who hopes to see the project spread to other schools. “It’s for someone else rather than yourself.”
1、What was the purpose of the engineering project?
A．To show how special education helps disabled kids
B．To try out engineering knowledge learned in class.
C．To improve the life of disabled kids.
D．To provide jobs to a group of young engineers.
2、How did the project influence the engineers in Hendrickson's opinion?
A．It helped them pass their exams more easily.
B．It caused them more stress than their exams.
C．It helped them put their knowledge into use.
D．It improved their communication skills.
3、What did Betley think of the engineering project?
A．It did a lot of good to people in need of help.
B．It reminded people not to look down on the disabled.
C．It made more students interested in engineering.
D．It reminded people to care more about themselves.
4、What is the best title of the passage?
A．Practice makes perfect B．Helping others out
C．Living with a disability D．Challenging oneself

24．（8分）Culture can affect not just language and customs, but also how people experience the world on surprisingly basic levels.

Researchers, with the help of brain scans, have uncovered shocking differences in perception（感知）between Westerners and Asians, what they see when they look at a city street, for example, or even how they perceive a simple line in a square, according to findings published in a leading science journal.
In western countries, culture makes people think of themselves as highly independent individuals. When looking at scenes, Westerners tend to focus more on central objects than on their surroundings. East Asian cultures, however, emphasize inter-dependence. When Easterners look at a scene, they tend to focus on surroundings as well as the object.
Using an experiment involving two tasks, Dr Hedden asked subjects to look at a line simply to estimate its length, a task that is played to American strengths. In another, they estimated the line’s length relative to the size of a square, an easier task for the Asians.
The level of brain activity, by tracking blood flow, was then measured by Brain Scanners. The experiment found that although there was no difference in performance, and the tasks were very easy, the levels of activity in the subjects’ brains were different. For the Americans, areas linked to attention lit up more, when they worked on the task they tended to find more difficult — estimating the line’s size relative to the square. For the Asians, the attention areas lit up more during the harder task also — estimating the line’s length without comparing it to the square. The findings are a reflection of more than ten years of previous experimental research into East-West differences.
In one study, for instance, researchers offered people a choice among five pens; four red and one green. Easterners were more likely to choose a red pen while Westerners were more likely to choose the green one.
Culture is not affecting how you see the world, but how you choose to understand and internalize(使内化) it.
But such habits can be changed. Some psychological studies suggest that when an Easterner goes to the West or vice versa, habits of thought and perception also begin to change. Such research gives us clues on how our brain works and is hopeful for us to develop programs to improve our memory, memory techniques and enhance and accelerate our learning skills.

A．more emphasize independent thinking
B．always focus more on their surroundings
C．focus on the context as well as the object

2、We know from the passage that people’s brains will be more active when ________.
A．the task is much easier B．the blood flow is tracked

A．Culture has a great impact on the way people talk and behave.
B．Easterners and Westerners perceive the world differently.
C．People's perception of the world can be changed.
D．Americans are better at calculating than the Asians.
4、It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A．Easterners prefer collectivism to individualism
B．East Asian cultures lay more emphasis on independence
C．it took over ten years to find out how to improve our brainpower
D．Americans will change their habits of perception when they’re in Britain
