In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs. Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night light, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she’s gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. I miss her most at night.In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar melancholy. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared forthe college drop-off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And i t’s not just“first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn’t get any easier. “You feel like something has been taken away from inside you” said one of them.I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cell phone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think that messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.24.

The machine makes the clothes turn round quickly, heats them to remove the sweat, and then passes the steam through a kind of special material to make purified water.Since it has been brought into use, its creators say more than 1000 people have drunk others’ “sweat” in Gothenburg. They add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.The device was built for the United Nations’ child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water.The machine was designed and built by the engineer Andreas Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech show “Mekatronik”. He said th e key part of the sweat machine was a new water purification part developed by a company named HVR.“It uses a technique called membrane distillation (膜蒸馏),” he told the BBC. “We use a special kind of material that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other things out. They have something similar to the International Space Station, but our machine is cheaper to build. The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is, but one person’s T-shirt typically produces 10ml, about a mouthfu l.”The device has been put on show at the Gothia Cup-the world’s largest international youth football tournament. Mattias Ronge, chief executive of Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo, said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations.“People haven’t produced as much sweat as we hoped – right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy,” Mattias Ronge said. “So we’ve equipped the machine with exercise bikes and volunteers are cycling like crazy. Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never be produced in large numbers, since there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills.”28. Which of the following is the disadvantage of the sweat machine?A.The amount of water the machine produces is rather limited.B. It takes too long for the machine to produce water.C. It costs a large amount of money to build the machine.D. The water processed by the machine is not clean enough.29. UNICEF is mentioned in the text to ________.A. show how the sweat machine worksB. show the importance of the United NationsC. explain why the sweat machine was inventedD. tell us who invented the sweat machine30. What did Mattias Ronge think of the sweat machine?A. It could only be used in summer.B. It was not worth popularizing.C. It did not work at all.D. The water it produced tasted sweet.31. The text is written mainly to tell us that ______________.A. 780 million people in the world lack access to clean waterB. a machine which turns sweat into drinking water is inventedC. a better solution to purifying dirty water is discoveredD. the pill which turns dirty water into clean water is producedDYesterday night, over a dinner with my elder brother’s family, a topic of happiness came up. My wife, Marla, a psychologist, was sharing Csikszentmihalyi’s concept of “flow” with us. Marla explained that according to the research on flow, people are happiest when they are absorbed in a task that is just challenging enough for them to experience a sense of mastery(熟练).A few moments later my brother, Yuri, offered the following opinion: “The first and only, necessary and sufficient factor for happiness is to stop associating happiness with pleasure. The two — happiness and pleasure —have nothing to do with each other.” This morning, with my cup of coffee, I searched through a pile of books on my bedside table and—at the bottom—found a book by Bertrand Russell, I star ted reading but didn’t finish. In it, I found the following thought:“The human animal, like others, is adapted to a certain amount of struggle for life, and when 【…】his whims (突发奇想) 【are satisfied】 without effort, the mere absence of effort from his life removes an essential ingredient of happiness.”The conversation came full circle: people are happiest when they are in a state of flow ( Csikszentmihalyi’s language )…which is the effortful devotion in a moment…which has n othing to do with pleasure.Indeed, as Yuri insisted : happiness–as–pleasure is a myth; the association between happiness and pleasure is nothing but a semantic(语义的) habit; psychologically, the two—happiness and pleasure—are arguably different; and breaking up this association between pleasure and happiness might, in fact, be a powerfully first step in pursuit of happiness.As I look back on that exchange, I recall that there was an effort, a struggle to find a common understanding about this seemingly difficult idea—a struggle that made me happy.32. The author wrote this text mainly to_______.A. look back on the happy nightB. advise readers to read Bertrand RussellC. tell readers how to be happiestD. show different opinions on family gathering33. According to Marla, people feel happiest when they______.A. get what they want without effortB. master the happiness around themC. involve themselves in a challenging taskD. experience things that can bring pleasure34. What writing style is used by the author to explain happiness?A. Giving examples.B. Using quotes.C. Making comparisons.D. Offering arguments.35. The best title of the text may probably be______.A. The struggle for lifeB. Happiness as pleasureC. A topic over the dinnerD. The effort for happiness第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分50分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
