I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang.It was an eccentric(怪僻的)farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was, but I obviously had to go .
It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. "She meant more to me than anyone…even my own wife!" he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn(厩)."I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!" he said.
Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door .He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground." She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!" he said, and burst into tears again.

The so-called post-90s generation has become even much “cooler” than the 1980s group, for they can speak “Martian language”, a difficult code-like language created by themselves. And they probably think it very original and smart.
The idea of this language is to prevent the authorities----parents and teachers from understanding what is said.
Ms. Li, mother of a 15-year-old girl, logged (登录) onto her daughter’s online space and found lines of codes, mixed English, Japanese and half-finished Chinese characters, which looked completely meaningless to her. Her daughter told her that it was “Martian language” and her peers all used it.
The new language is becoming very popular in online spaces--- so much that even some translating software has been created to translate the normal language into “Martian language”.
A 14-year-old netizen, nicknamed “S. Tangguo”, explained that the language could be created by anyone. “At first, I just copied the language from other people’s articles. Later, I began to create some words by myself. I split (拆分)some Chinese characters, or use words that have similar pronunciations to interchange with each other, or even add some English, Japanese or Korean words into my article, and that makes the new language. My classmates all chat in ‘Martian language’. It’s in style and can help us hide our secrets from our parents or teachers.”
Unlike the worried parents, some experts have found positive aspects in the spread of this unusual online language. Wang Haiyong, a psychologist, said that there’s no need to be too worried about the phenomenon. This so-called “Martian language” is just a little hobby of the post-90s generation. On the other hand, the new language can inspire children’s imaginations, which is a good thing. However, Wang also advised teachers and parents to give proper guidance to their children, helping them better distinguish between online language and the normative (规范性的)language of real life.
12. Which has the similar meaning to the underlined word “peers”?
A. authorities B. children C. experts D. classmates
13.Why does the post-90s generation create “Martian language” according to the passage?
A. Because “Martian language” can make them smart.
B. Because they want to practice their foreign languages together.
C. Because they just want to have fun by playing with the characters and letters.
D. Because they can hide their secrets from the authorities.
14. Which of the following statements is NOT one of the ways creating “Martian language” according to the passage?
A. Mixing some completely meaningless codes together.
B. Separating some Chinese characters into parts.
C. Interchanging words that have similar pronunciations.
D. Adding some foreign words into the original language.
15. What is the correct attitude we should take towards “Martian language” according to the psychologist?
A. Parents should worry about losing control over their children.
B. All generations should learn to be cooler by using the new language.
C. We should help children understand the difference between the language online and the standard language.
D. The authorities themselves should try to use the new language.

16 Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!
17 Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper.
18 Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse , hit their brothers or sisters. 19 However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things .Kids don’t want to act in this way , but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?
Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. 20 Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training.
