Today, we're sending Sally away for a week of summer camp.She never actually asked to go.It was all my idea to sign her up ．She's nearly 12, and I notice that I'm with my child nearly 24 hours a day.

Living on a farm without any neighbors, I've chosen a life that is quieter than a typical family's.But rather than longing for space away from me, Sally has become increasingly dependent on my presence.

What frightens me most is that she has become a “mini­me”．She pursues my hobbies, my dreams and my opinions.And that's why I pulled her to the summer camp：a nearby wilderness camp called Hawk Circle.

After we ate, we drove to Hawk Circle.once there, we got a tour of the grounds and were  introduced  to Sally's fellow campers.Sally stood by the group of children, holding my hand, horror in her eyes, trying to work up the courage to join in a game of soccer.

“I need you for a few more minutes，” she told me, holding my hand tightly.

I pulled away and walked up to one of the camp workers.“Excuse me，” I said loudly.“I'd like to introduce my daughter to you.Maybe you could help her meet a few of these kids.” He came over to talk to Sally, and I kissed on her cheek and then my husband and I disappeared before Sally realized we were gone.

It was not until I drove home that I finally felt it.A piece of my soul had been taken from my body.I began to shake.Tears streamed down my face.It took every bit of my strength to keep driving forward.

When we arrived home, I calmed down and reminded myself why I chose this path.I want Sally to have a chance to find herself out of my shadow.I don't want to see only myself in my child.I want to learn who she is.After 12 years of constantly being together, I want to finally meet my daughter for the first time.

Tea, the most typical English drink, became established in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess, Catherine of Braganza, the queen of Charles【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】

 Ⅱ.As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal, she brought tea­drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for _____________________ in the 17th century.The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility to the middle classes, and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day.Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning, thus inventing a lasting British institution, the “tea break”．However, drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people.It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well.21·世纪*教育网

Around 1800, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, Anna Maria Russell, began the popular practice of “afternoon tea”， a ceremony taking place at about four o'clock.Until then, people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner.At  approximately  the  same  time, the  Earl  of  Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread — in thin slices, with something like jam or cucumbers between them.Before long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon, involving tea and sandwiches, became part of the British way of life.

As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century, its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society.Thus, tea became  Britain's favorite drink.In  working­class households, it was served with the main meal of the day, eaten when workers returned home after a day's labor.This meal has become known as “high tea”．Today, tea can be drunk at any time of the day, and accounts for over two­fifths of all drinks consumed in Britain — with the exception of water.

Some scientists will say it is impossible to read minds.They will also tell you that you can make educated guesses on what a person might be thinking or feeling.Perhaps there really is nothing mysterious about the power to read minds.Perhaps it is simply human sense based on observation and educated guesses after all, but that's really a useful ability to learn.www-2-1-cnjy-com

Learn body language.How a person moves and holds their hands, and even what their eyes are doing are actually telling about what is going on inside their head.For example, pupils tend to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something.If you are talking to someone and making eye contact, finding their pupils are large and round, chances are that they are not __________ interest in the conversation.Someone biting their nails is probably nervous.Someone who folds their arms across their chest when they are not cold is probably trying to put a barrier between you and themselves.

Learn to mentally put yourself in another's place.Scientists have recently discovered that your brain has neurons that become active when you watch someone do something the same as we did the action ourselves.So when you are able to open yourself to understand how other people are feeling, you can figure out reasons and predict future actions, reactions, even thoughts.

Sometimes you can use Extrasensory Perception to read someone's mind.This does not mean you will literally be able to read their mind like a book.Instead, you will receive impressions or feelings, which are difficult to explain.

To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation ．Because meditation helps enable you to purposely put your brain in a state of relaxed awareness where you will be more successful in reading people and receiving impressions.

Practice and combine all of these steps.You will soon find yourself able to read people's minds.

32．What is the passage mainly about?

A．The ways of reading people's minds.

B．The steps of learning body language.

C．The necessity of learning to read people's minds.

D．The relationship between minds and body language.

分析：选A主旨大意题。依据最后一段“Practice and combine all of these steps.You will soon find yourself able to read people's minds.”并结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲的是了解别人的心思的办法和方案，故选A。

33．What does the underlined word “feigning” mean?

A．Expressing. B．Pretending.

C．Finding. D．Declaring.

分析：选B词义猜测题。依据第二段第三句“For example, pupils tend to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something.”并结合“finding their pupils are large and round”可知，瞳孔放大说明大家真的而不是假装对某事有兴趣，由此可推知画线词表示“假装”的意思，故选B。

34．Why can you read someone's mind when you mentally put yourself in his/her place?

A．Because you suddenly have the ability to understand his or her feeling.

B．Because your imagination ability and your past experience are combined.

C．Because some neurons in your brain improve your observation ability.

D．Because your past similar experiences make some neurons in your brain active.

分析：选D细节理解题。依据第三段第二句“Scientists have recently discovered that your brain has neurons that become active when you watch someone do something the same as we did the action ourselves.”可知，当你看到某人和你有一样的历程时，你大脑中的神经元会活跃起来，故选D。

35．How does meditation help with mind reading?

A．By making educated guesses on minds.

B．By learning to make eye contact.

C．By changing ESP abilities for the better.

D．By strengthening impressions received.

分析：选C细节理解题。依据倒数第二段第一句“To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation ．”可知，冥想可以提升大家的超感知觉，故选C。
