questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage：
the ordinary family in colonial north america was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond that，its own economic prosperity.thus，children were valued in terms of their productivity and they assumed the role of producer quite early.until they fulfilled this role，their position，in the structure of the family was one of subordination，and their psychological need and capacities received little consideration.
as the society became more complex，the status(地位)of children in the family and in the society became more important.in the complex technological society that the united states has become，each member must fulfill a number of personal and occupational roles and be in constant contact with a great many other members.consequently，viewing children as potentially acceptable and necessarily multifaceted(多方面的.)member of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian(功利的)organisms .this acceptance of children as
equal participants in the contemporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social and public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being.
this new view of children and the increasing contact between the members of society has also resulted in a surge of interest in child-rearing techniques.people today spend a considerable portion of their time conferring on the proper way to bring up children.it is now possible to influence the details of the socialization of another person's child by spreading the gospel(原则、信条)of current and fashionable theories and methods of child rearing.
the socialization of the contemporary child in the united states is a two-way transaction between parent and child rather than a one-way parent-to-child training program.as a consequence， socializing children and living with them over a long period of time is for parents a mixture of pleasure，satisfaction，and problem.

a)the place of children in united states society

questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage：
on june 17，1744，the officials from maryland and virginia held a talk with the indians of the six nations.the indians were invited to send boys to william and mary college.in a letter the next day they refused the offer as follows：
we know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges，and that the costs of living of our young men，while with you，would be very expensive to you.we are convinced that you mean to do us good by your proposal and we thank you heartily.but you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things，and you will therefore not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours.we have had some experience of it.several of our young people were formerly brought up at the colleges of the northern provinces ;they were taught all your sciences;but when they came back to us they were bad runners，ignorant of every means of living in the woods，they were totally good for nothing.
we are，however，not the less obliged by your kind offer，though we refuse to accept it，and to show our grateful sense of it，if the gentlemen of virginia will send us a dozen of their sons，we wi1l take care of their education，teach them in al1 we know and make men of them.

questions 31 to 36 are based on the following passage：
the focusing or sharpening of the image is performed by a special apparatus.in every camera，the farther the object is from the eye，the farther forward—and the nearer the object is to the eye，the farther backward—is its image thrown.in photographers'cameras，the back is made to slide，and can be drawn away from the lens when the object that casts the picture near， and pushed forward when it is far.the picture is thus kept always sharp.but no such change of length is possible in the eyeball，and the same result is reached in another way.the lens， namely，grows more convex(凸面的)when a near object is looked at，and flatter when the object recedes.this change is due to the antagonism of the“ciliary muscle(睫状肌).the ligament(韧带)，when the ciliary muscle is at rest，assumes such a spreadout shape as to keep the lens rather flat.but the lens is highly elastic;and it springs into the more convex form which is natural to it whenever the ciliary muscle，by contracting， makes the ligament relax its pressure.the contraction of the muscle，by thus tendering the lens more refractive，adapts the eye for near objects(“accommodates?it for them，as we say)：and its relaxation，by rendering the lens less refractive， adapts the eye for distant vision.accommodation for the near is thus the more active change，since it involves contraction of the ciliary muscle.when we look far off，we simply let our eyes go passive. we feel the difference in the effort when we compare the two sensation of change.
31.in order to focus on distant objects，the lens of the eye ____ .
a)becomes more convex b)becomes more active
c)becomes more refractive d)flattens
32.the ligament，when not acted on by the contraction of the ciliary muscle，____ .

a)the lens of the camera with the lens of the eye
b)the lens of the camera with the ciliary muscle
c)the lens of the eye with the sliding of the back of the camera
d)the sliding of the back of the camera with the adaptability of the eyeball

questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage：
are you aware that you actually possess six senses?the sixth is a muscular sense responsible for directing your muscles intelligently to the exact extent necessary for each action you perform.for example，when you reach for an object，the sensory nerves linking the muscles to the brain stop your hand at the correct spot.this automatic perception of the position of your muscles in relation to the object is your muscular sense in action.
muscles are stringy bundles of fibers varying from one five thousandth of an inch to about three inches.they have three unique characteristics： they can become shorter and thicker;they can stretch;and they can retract to their original po- sition.under a high-powered microscope，muscle tissue is seen as long，slender cells with a grainy texture like wood.
more than half of a person's body is composed of muscle fibers，most of which are involuntary，in other words，work without conscious direction.the voluntary muscles，those that we move consciously to perform particular actions，number more than five hundred.women have only 60 to 70 percent as much muscle as men for their body mass.that is why an average woman can't lift as much，throw as far，or hit as hard as an average man.
