It was my son Matthew’s last night at home before going to college. I knew that this was good news. After all, Matthew would go to a great school, something he had worked hard at for years. But looking at the suitcases on his bed, I went out of the room to a hidden corner where I couldn’t stop crying. “Pull yourself together!” I told myself. There were parents sending their kids off to battle zones. How could I feel so upset?
One of the great gifts of my life has been having my boys, Matthew and Johnowen. Through them, I explore the mysterious and complex bond between fathers and sons. “Do you think it’s cold in the dorms in the winter?” Matthew asked in a voice that seemed smaller than it had been before. “No!” I lied, having no idea what his new room for the next four years would be like.
Matthew’s clothes were put into the bags and his bed was tidy and spare. I thought of all the recent times I had been annoyed at how late he had been sleeping. I would never have to worry about that again, I realized.
On the plane, I stared at Matthew. The light from his window was cutting across his face, making him look handsome and grown-up. I remembered what I whispered to him when his eyes opened for the first time, “Hello. I’m your Daddy. And I will always be there for you.”
While we stood in front of Matthew’s dorm, the welcoming students did crazy dances. Matthew asked, “Dad, what if it’s too hard for me here?” I said seriously, “You came from a very tough academic school. You took the tests and got the scores. This won’t be any different. This school chose you because they knew you could succeed here.”“ None of the other kids look scared at all,” he said. For the first time I could remember that he was still a baby. I wanted to hug him, but I didn’t. Instead, I looked him in the eye. “Never compare your insides to someone else’s outsides.”
【1】How did the author feel at his son’s last night at home before going to college?
A.He felt extremely happy. B.He was a little embarrassed.
C.He cried sadly for a long time. D.He had very complex emotions.
【2】The author lied to Matthew because ________.
A.he knew what Matthew’s new dorms would actually be like

D.he was annoyed at Matthew’s sleeping late

A.When he came into the world. B.When he woke up on the plane
C.When he left his home for college D.When he saw his new classmates
【4】What kind of father do you think the author is?

For many of us, good friends are the next closest thing to family. According to a new study, good friends are actually the next closest thing to family from the aspect of genes (基因).
U.S. researchers have found that we are more genetically similar to our friends than to any stranger. The study suggested that genes may affect how we choose our friends, reports the BBC.
The study looked at the gene information of nearly 2,000 people, who were chosen from a small U.S. town as part of a larger heart study. Nearly half a million single-letter markers from the genome (基因组) were studied, showing that friends share about 0.1 percent more DNA, on average, than strangers do. While that might not sound like much, it’s as if they shared a great-great-great-grandparent in common.
Except for providing DNA information, participants (参与者) in the study were also asked who their closest friends were. Because all of the participants were chosen from such a small community, it made this group particularly suitable for such studies.
However, the fact that all of the study was based on such a small community has also led to argument. Friendships in small communities might be more likely to be genetically related, because such communities have fewer types of genes in general.
“I wonder whether the methods used in the study can fully explain the causes known to drive friendships,” said Oxford’s Dr. Rory Bowden.
There was one interesting finding from the study. Some of the genes that friends are most likely to have in common are about smell. “You may really love the smell of coffee. And you’re drawn to a place where other people have been drawn because they love the smell of coffee too,” Fowler explained. “And so that might be the opportunity space for you to make friends. You’re all there together because you love coffee and you make friends because you all love coffee.”
【1】What did the participants do in the study?
A.They named their closest friends.
B.They made friends from a small community.
C.They changed the methods of making friends.
D.They provided DNA information of their friends.
【2】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Coffee helps strangers come together.
B.Good friends will love the smell of coffee.
C.Genes about smell among friends are similar.
D.Smell may influence people in making friends.
【3】What is the text mainly about?
A.A study on the relationship between making friends and genes.
B.The methods of carrying out different studies.
C.A way to choose participants in a study.
D.The similar genes between good friends.

A serious attack on the fantasy story for children comes from those who do not wish children to be frightened,” writes C.S. Lewis in an essay named Three Ways of Writing for Children. Those who say that children must not be frightened mean two things. Firstly, they mean that we mustn’t do anything likely to give children fears, and secondly, they want to keep out of their minds that they are born into a world of death, violence, wounds, good and evil (邪恶). C.S. Lewis says he agrees with the first reason, but not the second.
He goes on to remark, “Since it is so likely that they will meet cruel enemies, let them at least hear of brave fighters and heroic courage. By limiting your child to perfect and nice stories of child life in which nothing alarming ever happens, they would fail to face fears and hardships.” “It would be nice,” he continues, “ if no little boy in bed ever hears a frightening sound. But if he is to be frightened, I think St. George, or any bright hero in armor, is a better comfort than the idea of the police.”
Bruno Bettelheim, a well-known child psychologist, also points out that fantasy stories provide children with a valuable education about good and evil. He believes that all children have many personal fantasies filled with fears and fantasy stories comfort them and offer solutions. Happy endings tell them that solutions and hope are real and model the kind of happy life children want to find.
A good fantasy suggests rather than teaches possible answers to life. It’s believed that reading fantasies quickens the ability to get and put ideas from books to reality. It’s what good literature does — it makes life larger.
【1】According to the first paragraph, C.S. Lewis thinks that______.
A.children shouldn’t read any fantasy story because it is bad
B.adults shouldn’t do things that may frighten their children
C.death and badness should be kept out of children’s minds
D.writing a fantasy story is the best way of writing for children
【2】What probably is St. George according to the text?
A.He is a policeman in real life.
B.He is a murderer caught by the police.
C.He is a brave man in a fantasy novel.
D.He is a frightening person in a story.
【3】Why should children read fantasy literature according to Bruno Bettelheim?
A.Because it encourages children to have a lot of fantasies.
B.Because it helps children overcome fears and find solutions.
C.Because it teaches children to write their own fantasy stories.
D.Because it gives children a happy memory when they grow up.
【4】It can be inferred from the text that ______.
A.good literature can give readers more valuable stories
B.fantasies can improve one’s ability to solve problems
C.personal fantasies can help children get away from danger
D.most children can understand what fantasy literature is
