They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future.In August, Song sent his 17-year-old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in Pennsylvania. And he is far from alone, even though it takes a lot of money - around $48,000 per year to send a child to a strict military school.Statistics shows that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies.A few years ago, there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge. Today, there are 28.All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families, some of them were spoiled, said Jennifer Myers, director of marketing and communications at the school.Songs only son, Song Siyu, had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school. The teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult.Now, three months late r，he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35 seconds, finishing a meal without looking at his food, and making his bed with precision. He can even take criticism, no matter how unreasonable.The training is hard but I know it is good for self-development of individuals, said Song Siyu .The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character, they are not personal.But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy this year have transferred to other schools.But for those who stick with it, there is a reward for all the hard work.26.From the second paragraph, we can know the old Chinese saying _.A. is out of date in modern times.B. is disagreed by rich parents.C. is still worth trusting.D . is deeply believed by better educated parent.27.The underlined sentence means that _A.Song sent his only son to military school, so he feels lonely.B.Song is the only one who sends his child t to military school.C.There are other people sending their children to military school besides Song.D.The fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it.28.Song Siyu got some achievements in the military school except _.A .taking a bath in a short timeB having his meal with his eyes closedC. taking unreasonable criticism D . improving his character29.How many Chinese students are there at Valley Forge before this year?A.10B.13C.15D .2530.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A.Its likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA.B.most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays.C.Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA.D.Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.BYou know eating fruit and vegetables does good . But do you know it can also make you look good? People who increased their intake over just six weeks developed a healthy glow and appeared more attractive, researchers found . Scientists at St Andrews University found eating them slightly increased yellow and red pigments in the volunteers skin. They monitored the food intake of 35 people and took pictures of their faces, arms and hands using a sensitive camera at the start, and after three and six weeks. Increasing their intake of greens by 2.9 portions a day was found to make the person look more healthy and an extra 3.3 portions could enhance their attractiveness, when their photographs were rated by others.Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids (类胡萝卜素)，which are known to protect against cell damage from pollution and UV rays, and can also prevent age-related diseases including heart disease and cancer. But while it was known eating extreme amounts of certain vegetables such as carrots could turn skin orange ，it was not known a small increase was perceptible(被觉察）to others - and was seen as appealing.A camera measured changes to the skins redness, yellowness and lightness, and found it significantly changed in people who naturally increased their intake. These changes were not evident in three weeks. Using light sensors, the researchers showed these red and yellow hues were linked with the levels of carotenoids in their skin. There are hundreds of carotenoids but those thought to have the most dramatic effect are lycopene(番茄红素)-which gives tomatoes and red peppers their red colour - and beta-carotene found in carrots as well as broccoli, squash, and spinach. Skin colour is also affected by chemicals called polyphenols（多元酚)，found in apples, blueberries and cherries, which cause blood rush to the skin surface.31.What do we know from the research?A.If you take in a little more fruit and vegetables, you will obviously look more attractive in three weeks.B.The researchers took the pictures of the 35 people in the research at different stages.C.Increasing your intake of greens by 2.9 portions a day can greatly improve your health.D.People who increased their intake of greens by 3.3 portions a day were found the most attractive after six weeks.32.Which of the following is NOT the function of carotenoids ？A.They can protect against cell damage from pollution and UV rays.B.They can prevent heart disease and cancer.C.They can prevent age-related diseases.D.They can keep you in good health.33.Which of the statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.Weve already known eating extreme amounts of carrots can turn skin orange.B.We knew in the past that eating a few more carrots could make us look appealing.C.The research showed the improvement in skin is linked with the levels of carotenoids in itD.Among hundreds of carotenoids, lycopene is thought to have the most dramatic effect on the skin.34.We can infer from the passage that _A.Skins redness, yellowness and lightness make a person look more healthy and attractive.B.Carotenoids have the same effect as lycopene.C.It is carotenoids that give tomatoes and red peppers their red colour.D.Both beta-carotene and polyphenols affect skin colour by causing blood rush to the skin surface.35.Which can be the best title of the passage?A. Eating fruit and vegetables does good . B. Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids. C. How to become attractive.D . Eating fruit and vegetables makes you look goodCMy hate for my mother caused me a lot of years of pain, but I finally realized that I was not hurting her. I was hurting myself and I was in bondage to her because I held her in my heart full of hate. God set me free from this when I forgave her. A couple of years ago I came face to face with my mother at my grandmothers funeral. I told her about the changes in my life and I told her that I forgave her. I was able to tell her that I loved her. I am still separated from my oldest daughter, but she knows that I love her and that I made some wrong choices. I am now raising three of my own children and my sisters child . When I look into the eyes of my sisters, babywho is now the same age as my oldest child was when I left herI can see myself at that age. I know that Jesus forgives, as I am allowed to be the mother I never knew.Take a look at your life. There are things we dream of doing one day, there are things we wish we could forget. In the Bible, it says that Jesus came to make all things new. What would your life look like if you could start over with a clean slate?Live with hope. If you are looking for peace, there is a way to balance your life. No one can be perfect, or have a perfect life. But every one of us has the opportunity to experience perfect grace through a personal relationship with God through his son, Jesus Christ.You can receive Christ right now by faith through prayer. Praying is simply talking to God . God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as he is with the attitude of your heart.
