A

An interesting study posted on Facebook recently shows how men and women develop new interests as they mature(成熟).While women tend to take exercise seriously from the age of 34, men will wait until their 45th birthdays before working hard to get in shape. The average woman spends more time talking about sports, politics, career and money as she gets older. Women’s interest in books reaches its peak(顶峰) at the age of 22, while that of men does so when they are in their 50s.Men start to change their focus from the workplace to other things after age 30, while women do not do so until eight years later. Both, however, care most about fashion at age 16.The research used anonymous(匿名的) data donated by thousands of Facebook users, recording the statuses, ‘likes’ and ‘interests’ they had posted on their profiles. It found the average woman talks about television most at 44, while men peak much younger, at age 31.Men are also most likely to see a film in a cinema at age 31, while women go out to see films most when they are only 19.Men are most interested in travel at 29, women at 27, while women talk most about food and drink at 35, and men at 38.And if you are middle aged, a safe topic for any audience is the weather, which is a key interest for many as they approach 60.Stephen Wolfram, the British scientist who carried out the research, says, “It’s almost shocking how much this tells us about the chan ges of people’s typical interests.

“People talk less about video games as they get older, and more about politics.”

didn’t noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. S he smiled at me. “Thanks.”

Have you ever been sad because of failure? Please remember, for quite often achieving what you set out do is not the most important thing.

A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house. As he was working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answere d excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a while, the boy picked up a jar. He showed it to the visitors. It was full of all kinds of stones and insects. Then he said calmly and confidently, “Maybe I can’t finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I’ve found during this period!”

The boy’s goal was far too difficult, but it did cause him to go on. And that is what a goal is for－to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to cause us to keep working! Not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you fall short of your aim, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look at what I’ve found along the way! There are so many wonderful things having come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really makes sense.

12. The older boys laughed at the boy because he was thought to be______.

A. brave

B. impolite

C. foolish

D. warm-hearted

13. Why did the boy show the jar to the older boys?

A. To drive them away.

B. To show what he had found in digging.

C. To show how beautiful the jar was.

D. To attract them to join him in the work.

14. What can be learnt from the fourth paragraph of the text?

A. No dream can come true.

B. All work will end successfully.

C. Goals shouldn’t be set too high.

D. Goals will make us work harder.

15. The best title for the text should be______.

A. A Boy Dug a Hole

B. Joy in the Journey

C. No Pain, No Gains

D. Failure Is the Mother of Success
