Passage 6 Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Arthur Morel was growing up. He was a quick less, impulsive boy, a good deal like his father. He hated study, made a great moan if he had to work, and escaped as soon as possible to his sport again. In appearance he remained the flower of the family, being well made, graceful, and full of life. His dark brown hair and fresh colouring, and his exquisite dark blue eyes, together with his generous manner and fiery temper (急脾气),made him a favourite. But as he grew older his temper became uncertain. He flew into rages over nothing, seemed unbearably raw and irritable. His mother, whom he loved, wearied of him sometimes. He thought only of himself. When he wanted amusement, all that stood in his way he hated, even if it were she. When he was in trouble he moaned to her ceaselessly. “Goodness,boy!” she said,when he groaned about a master who, he said,hated him, “if you don't like it,alter it,and if you can't alter it,put up with it.” And his father, whom he had loved and who had worshipped him, he came to detest. As he grew older, Morel fell into a slow ruin. There came over him a look of meanness and of paltriness (微不足道).And when the mean-looking elderly man bullied or ordered the boy about, Arthur was furious. Moreover, Morel's manners got worse and worse, his habits somewhat disgusting. “Dirty nuisance!” Arthur would cry,jumping up and going straight out of the house when his father disgusted him. And Morel persisted the more because his children hated it. He seemed to take a kind of satisfaction in disgusting them, and driving them nearly mad, while they were so irritably sensitive at the age of fourteen or fifteen. So that Arthur, who was growing up when his father was degenerate and elderly, hated him worst of all. Then,sometimes,the father would seem to feel the contemptuous (藐视的)hatred of his children. “There's not a man tries harder for his family!” he would shout. “He does his best for them,and then gets treated like a dog. But I'm not going to stand it,I tell you!” As it was, the battle now went on nearly all between father and children, he persisting in his dirty and disgusting ways, just to assert his independence. They hated him. Why did the father persist in his way of treating his children?

Passage 6 Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Getting a good night's sleep tonight could guard children against weight gain in the future. According to a new study, putting preschoolers in bed by 8 p.m. could reduce their chances of becoming overweight or obese(肥胖的) later in life by half. Preschoolers are children around the age of 4 or 5. The term "obese"refers” to calculations of your Body Mass Index, what doctors call BMI. They use person's height, weight and age to assess their amount of body fat. BMIs help tell whether a person is underweight, normal, overweight or obese. The World Health Organization says obesity can lead to serious long-term health problems like diabetes (糖尿病), heart disease and stroke. Researchers from the Ohio State University's College of Public Health have found that young children who go to bed after 9 p.m. are twice as likely to be obese later in life. The lead author of the study is Sarah Anderson. She is an associate professor of epidemiology(流行病学). She studies how diseases spread and how they can be controlled. Anderson says that, for parents, the results of the study support the importance of creating a bedtime routine. She says that having a usual bedtime routine is something "families can do to lower their child's risk"of becoming overweight. A usual, early bedtime, Anderson adds, "is also likely to have positive benefits on behavior and on social, emotional and cognitive development." Researchers used data from 977 children for the study. These children are part of a larger project called the Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development. The project follows healthy babies born in 1991 in 10 U.S. cities. The children were 4.5 years old when their mothers reported their usual weekday bedtime. Researchers then divided the children into three groups: A) those who went to bed by 8 p.m. or earlier;B) those who went to bed between 8 p.m. and p.m. and C) those whose bedtimes were after 9 p.m. When these children turned 15 years old, the researchers looked at their rates of obesity. Of those with the earliest bedtimes only one out of 10 was obese. Of those who went to bed between 8 and 9 p.m., 16 percent became obese. And out of those with the latest bedtimes, 23 percent became obese. Anderson said putting children in bed early does not mean they will immediately fall asleep. But,she adds, it makes it"more likely that children will get the amount of sleep they need to be at their best." What does the first paragraph tell us?
