At RateMyProfessors. com, students all over the country rate their professors on quality, helpfulness, and how hard their classes are.

Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone, not in features but in footsteps. As he grows you also age, and your ambitions become more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions.
My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports weren't written until the final threat.
I've been a newspaperman all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English. But Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a "vo-tech" student （技校学生）.They're called "motorheads” by the rest of the student body.
When a secretary in my office first called him ''motorhead", I was shocked. "Hey, he's a good kid," I wanted to say. “And smart, really.”
I learned later that motorheads are, indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they don't often make school honor rolls （光荣榜）.
But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices don't have the abilities that motorheads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to repair it was estimated at $800. "Hey, I can fix it," said Jody. I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose.
My son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got parts from a junkyard, and ability from vo-tech classes. The cost was $25 instead of $800.
Since that first repair job, a broken air-conditioner, a non-functioning washer and a non-toasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repairs to him.
These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes.
I have learned a lot from my motorhead: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics, and architects need builders. Most importantly, I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else.
My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made mine.
24. What used to be the author's hope for his son?
A. To avoid becoming his clone. B. To resemble him in appearance.
C. To develop in a different direction. D. To reach the author's unachieved goals.
25. What can we learn about the author's children?
A. His daughter does better in school. B. His daughter has got a master's degree.
C. His son tried hard to finish homework. D. His son couldn't write his book reports.
26. The author let his son repair the car because he believed that .
A. his son had the ability to fix it. B. it would save him much time.
C. it wouldn't cause him any more loss D. other motorheads would come to help.
27. What did the author realize in the end?
A. It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path.
B. It is important for one to make the honor roll.
C. Architects play a more important role than builders.
D. Motorheads have greater ability than office workers.
C
The crocodile （鳄鱼）is an amazing animal. Why are they amazing? Crocodiles are experts
at survival. Scientists say they first appeared 200 million years ago and have lived longer than the dinosaurs by some 65 million years. One reason why they are such good survivors is that they can go for a very long time without eating. And they are expert hunters! They use their strong jaws to bite their prey (猎物)and then they swallow food whole. Another amazing fact about crocodiles is: When they lose a tooth, they grow one right back. A crocodile can go through 8,000 teeth in one lifetime!
While these facts are interesting, they really do not help to explain today's expression: crocodile tears. Simply put, crocodile tears are fake sadness. You pretend to cry and feel bad or something when in fact you could not care less. A great word to describe crocodile tears is insincere.
The expression "crocodile tears” comes from an old story that crocodiles would cry tears as a fake show of guilt or sorrow to trick their prey. The prey would come closer and then become dinner. We know now that the story is not true. Scientists explain that crocodiles do produce tears. That is because while eating, they swallow too much air; which gets in touch with lachrymal glands (glands that produce tears) and forces tears to flow. But they're not actually crying. Crying is purely emotional and is reserved for us humans.
When you use it, take some advice. You do not have to have actual tears flowing down your face to have "crocodile tears”. Sometimes, crocodile tears are worse than insincere. Those are the times when you are showing sadness but actually in your heart, you are quite happy about the situation.
28. How does the author mainly show that crocodiles are amazing?
A. By telling stories. B. By giving examples.
C. By conducting experiments. D. By making comparisons.
29. "Crocodile tears" is often said to a person who .
A. has some insincere friends B. faces sorrowful situations
C. shows unreal sadness D. cares little about others
30. Why does a crocodile produce tears according to scientists?
A. The flow of its tears makes it appealing. B. It pretends to be guilty to trick its prey.
C. It wants to show its emotional feelings. D. The way it eats forces its tears to flow.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. An Expression—"Crocodile Tears" B. What Crocodiles Actually Cry for
C. Unknown Facts About Crocodiles D. How Crocodiles Show Sadness
D
Young sunflowers turn and swing every day. New findings add to evidence that the plants are animal-like.
Harmer, a professor in the University of California at Davis' Department of Plant Biology, carried out a series of experiments on sunflowers in the field, in pots outdoors and in indoor growth rooms.
By staking plants so that they could not move, Hanner showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun. He also noticed that sunflowers prevented from moving were not as tough and leafy as those that were free to move. When plants were moved indoor with a settled overhead light, they continued to swing back and forth for a few days.
The indoor plants did start tracking the “sun” again when the apparent source of lighting was moved across the room. The plants could reliably track the movement and return at night when the artificial day was close to a 24-hour cycle, but not when it was closer to 30 hours.
When sunflowers track the sun, the east sides of their stems grew more rapidly than the west sides. At night, the west sides grew faster as the stem swung the other way. The team identified a number of genes that were expressed at higher levels on the sunward side of the plant during the day, or on the other side at night. A plant growth-regulating hormone （荷尔蒙）， called auxin, appears to be a key driver.
The "dance” to the sun cycle obviously slows when the sunflower matures and its flowers open up. At that point, the plants stop moving during the day and settle down facing the sun in the east.
"Bees like warm flowers?" Harmer said, adding that the bees are cold-blooded, so landing on a warm flower saves them energy and perhaps feels really good.
"The morning warmth changes the flowers in a way to make them more appealing to insects, perhaps causing them to release more attractive scents （香味）earlier in the day.** he said. "We're currently testing this idea."
32. Why did Harmer do the experiment on sunflowers?
A. To see how sunflowers grow up.
B. To show what sunflowers' genes are.
C. To study why sunflowers track the sun.
D. To check if sunflowers swing in cloudy days.
33. What does the underlined word "staking" probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Tracking. B. Fixing. C. Growing. D. Researching.
34. What is the result of sunflowers being stopped from moving?
A. They won't grow well.
B. They will grow faster than usual.
C. They won't swing back though set free.
D. They will produce a number of new genes.
35. What is the advantage of sunflowers’ dance to the sun?
A. They save more energy. B. They produce more flowers.
C. They mature more rapidly. D. They attract more insects.

How to Put on a Medical Mask
Medical masks are mainly used by health care professionals to protect themselves and others. The masks can prevent the spread of infectious diseases. During a bad disease outbreak, that the public wear masks to protect themselves is also recommended. Here are some steps to wearing a mask properly.
Clean your hands. Before touching a clean medical mask, wash your hands thoroughly with both soap and water. Once you've applied soap, you should rub your hands together to wash them for at least 20 seconds. Always use a clean paper towel to dry your hands. 36
Check the medical mask for imperfections. Once you've taken a new medical mask from the box, check it to ensure it doesn't contain any imperfections, holes or tears in the material. 37.
Orient （确定方向）the top of the mask properly. In order for the mask to fit as close to your skin as possible, the top portion of the mask will have a bendable, but stiff edge that can be shaped around your nose. Ensure this bendable side is facing upwards before applying the mask to your face.
38 The inside of most medical masks is white in colour, while the outside has a colour of some sort. Before applying the mask to your face, make sure the white side is facing towards your face.
Place the mask on your face. There are many types of medical masks available, each with different methods of attaching the mask to your head. 39 Pick up this type of mask by the loops （环）,put one loop around one ear and then put the other loop around your other ear. If it is a mask with ties, pick up the mask by the upper ties, place the ties around the back of your head and attach them together with a bow.
40 Now that the medical mask is in place on your head and face, use your fingers to make the top edge of the mask around the bridge of your nose. If it is big enough, cover it over your chin.
A. Hold the mask in front of your face.
B. These masks are generally somewhat loose fitting.
C. Ensure the proper side of the mask faces outwards.
D. Adjust the nose piece and fit the mask to your face.
E. Don't forget to place that paper towel into a dustbin.
F. Some masks have 2 ear loops on either side of the mask.
G If the mask has something wrong, throw it away and select another new mask from the box.

The Green City, the Healthy Life
As a citizen of Huludao City, it’s our duty to help protect our city’s environment and make it a greener place to live in. Here are some small things we all can do and should do:
First of all, we can ride bicycles to and from school as much as possible to reduce air pollution. Secondly, wherever we go, we should throw rubbish into rubbish bins to keep our city clean and tidy. Last but not least, we should plant more trees to protect our city’s natural environment.
In my opinion, a green city is the key to a healthy life. If everyone makes a contribution to building a green city, Huludao will become a more beautiful place. Let’s take action now!
