Ⅰ.阅读
Recently, a scientist did some experiments. He left a group of 4yearolds in a room with a bell and a candy. If they rang the bell, he would come back and they could eat the candy. If, however, they didn't ring the bell and waited for him to come back on his own, they could then have two candies.
In the videos of the experiments, he could see the children hiding their eyes, trying to exercise selfcontrol so they could wait and get two candies. The results were different. Some broke_down and rang the bell within a minute. Others lasted 15 minutes.
The children who waited longer went on to get higher SAT scores. They got into better colleges and had better adult success. The children who rang the bell quicker were more likely to have received worse teachers and parental evaluations (评价) 10 years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age 32.
The experiments are worth noting because people spend a lot of time thinking about how to improve education, and how to become rich. But when the result is not good, they will come back to ask “How do we get people to get the sort of selfcontrol that leads to success？” This is to enter the world of human nature.
So these experiments, along with everyday experience, tell us that selfcontrol is very important. Young people who can sit through boring classes to get a degree can work hard in order to learn a language well. They can avoid drugs and alcohol. For people with
out selfcontrol skills, however, school is a series of ordeals. No wonder they drop out and their later life is a group of foolish ideas, such as drug use and stealing.
1．What is the purpose of these experiments by the scientist?
A．To find good ways of training children to learn.
B．To show that children's education is important.
C．To test children's selfcontrol and later success.
D．To test children's intelligence of ringing the bell.
2．What do the underlined words “broke down” probably mean?
A．Failed to wait. B．Kept waiting.
C．Hid the candy. D．Ate the candy.
3．How long did the scientist's experiments last according to the text?
A．Just 15 minutes. B．Within 10 years.
C．Less than 14 years. D．About 28 years.
4．What will the children without selfcontrol do at school according to the text?
A．They will improve their education.
B．They will suffer a lot from boring lessons.
C．They will become very rich and successful.
D．They will work hard to catch up with others.声音设备
