We’re raising children!
A famous research scientist was being interviewed why he was so much more creative.
小题1: He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his balance and it fell, spilling its contents all the kitchen floor—a veritable sea of milk!
When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of yelling at him, she said , “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk.小题2:Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?”
Indeed, he did. After several minutes, his mother said,“You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. 小题3: We could use a sponge, a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?” He chose the sponge and they cleaned up the spilled milk.
His mother then said, “You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle. Let’s fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it.” The boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. 小题4:
This scientist remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes. 小题5:
Wouldn’t it be great if all parents would respond the way Robert’s mother responded to him?
A.Instead, he learned that mistakes were just opportunities for learning something new. |
B.Well, the damage has already been done. |
C.What set him so far apart from others? |
D.What a wonderful lesson! |
F. Such an opportunity of experiencing was delightful to him.
G. He responded that it all came from an experience when he was about two years old.

The children don’t just plan any city. They map and analyze (分析) the housing, energy, and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years. With the aid of an architect (建筑师) who visits the classroom once a week, they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations. “Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,’’ says the teacher who developed this program. “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame, because there are no wrong answers in a future context. In fact, as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program, an elected ‘official’ and ‘planning group’ make all the design decisions for the model city and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser.
CBEP is a set of activities, games and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving: observing, analyzing, working out possible answers, and judging them based on the children’s own standards.
小题1:The program is designed to_________.
A.direct kids to build solar collectors |
B.train young scientists for city planning |
C.develop children’s problem-solving abilities |
D.help young architects know more about designing. |
A.find out kids’ creative ideas | B. help kids with their program |
C. discuss with the teacher | D. give children a lecture |
A.An official. | B.An architect. | C.A teacher. | D.A scientist |
A.they can design future buildings themselves |
B.they have new ideas and rich imagination |
C.they are given enough time to design models |
D.they need not worry about making mistakes |
The iPhone 4 has been the most successful product in Apple’s history. It is the best smartphone ever, and most users have told that they love it. So we were surprised when reading reports of reception (信号接收) problems, and we immediately began researching them.
To start with, holding tightly(紧紧地)almost any mobile phone in certain ways will reduce its reception by 1 or more bars of signal strength. This is true of iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, as well as many other phones. But some users have reported that iPhone 4 can drop 4 or 5 bars when tightly held in a way. This is a far bigger drop than normal, and as a result some have said the iPhone 4 has a faulty antenna(天线) design.
Upon research, we find that the formula(公式) we use to calculate how many bars of signal strength to display is totally wrong. Our formula usually mistakenly displays 2 more bars than it should for a given signal strength. The big drop in bars is because the high bars were never real in the beginning.
We will give a free software update to correct the formula. This software update (软件升级)will also be available for iPhone 3GS. If you are not fully satisfied, you can return your undamaged iPhone to any Apple Retail Store or the online Apple Store within 30 days of buying and get all your money back.
Thank you for your patience and support.

小题1:The iPhone 4 drops more bars than normal when tightly held because of .
A.a wrong antenna design | B.wrong usage |
C.weak signal strength | D.a wrong formula |
A.2 | B.3 | C.4 | D.5 |
A.The software update is fit for all cellphones produced by Apple. |
B.The iPhone 4 has been the most successful product in history. |
C.If a user is not satisfied with his iPhone 4, he will get ten times his money back. |
D.The Apple company didn’t expect the reception problems of iPhone 4. |
A.from Apple about iPhone problems | B.to Apple about iPhone 4 problems |
C.to introduce the new iPhone 4 | D.on how to pay back buyers for the faults |
The product, called Speed Alert, links real-time location data and speed obtained with the help of GPS to a database of posted speed limits stored in a driver’s PDA or programmable mobile phone. The setup of the product does not need to be hooked up to a car’s speedometer. In fact, it is entirely portable. It will also work with newer phones and PDAs that have built-in GPS receivers. If a driver exceeds the speed limit, the speed is shown and an alert sounds.
Michael Paine, an Australian vehicle design engineer and traffic safety consultant, was hired to analyze the product. He told Live Science that his colleagues in the road safety field are “very enthusiastic” about what they’re now calling “intelligent speed alert.” Other research, according to Paine, shows that 40 percent of all traffic deaths involve speeding. There is also a potentially controversial future use: “Since the system is so portable, it would be easy to make it a requirement for teenage drivers to always use a speed alert device when driving,” Paine said. “The system even has the capability to record speeding violations, so parents can monitor their teenage drivers.”
The product will soon go on sale in Sydney.
小题1: What’s the purpose of the new product?
A.To inform us of the new car system. | B.To introduce some improvement in cars. |
C.To limit certain drivers to safe driving. | D.To popularize the built-in car system. |
A.the project of the built-in product | B.why the system becomes popular |
C.the functions of GPS in cars | D.how the product is programmed |
A.Most of the traffic deaths can be avoided. | B.Speeding violations can be easily found out. |
C.The system will excite some teenage drivers. | D.The product will not be available for adults. |
A.Speed Alert and Its Future Use. | B.Progress in Car-making Science. |
C.Warning for Adventurous Drivers. | D.New In-Car Device against Speeding. |
At CareerPlanner.com we believe that each individual, regardless of (不管) race or religion, has a purpose in life, and until you discover what your purpose is, you will not find true happiness, nor true job satisfaction.
This doesn’t mean you won’t be successful. It just means you won’t be happy until you are moving towards your true purpose.
Unfortunately, our school system does very little to help students discover their true career. This is where online personality tests and career tests can help.
Online personality tests and career tests can help you better understand what type of work you should be doing to achieve job satisfaction, happiness, and success.
Personality tests are most useful in giving you insight into “how” your personality compares to others and “how” you like to work.
In particular, if you frequently experience difficulty working with others, or getting their support and cooperation, a really good personality test would show you how to get along better.
While personality tests are very useful at showing you how you like to work and how you like your work environment, they are not really designed to show you “what” type of work is right for you.
That is where Career Interest Tests come in. Online Career Tests, such as the CareerPlanner.com offers will help you discover what your true interests are, and what type of work you will be passionate (热诚的) about.
But back to personality tests. The most well-established personality tests are the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator R, and the Enneagram.
小题1:The underlined word “insight” in the first paragraph means _____.
A.theory | B.demand | C.understanding | D.term |
A.find your true purpose in life | B.choose the best work |
C.get along well with others | D.adapt to the work environment |
A.to recommend some popular online personality tests |
B.to inform readers of online personality and career tests |
C.to tell the differences between some popular online tests |
D.to persuade people to take online personality or career tests |
A.The differences between personality tests and career tests. |
B.The similarities between personality tests and career tests. |
C.The reasons why personality and career tests are popular. |
D.The details of the two most well-established personality tests. |
The first is called the " tank(贮水池) test". A modem airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure (结构)of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin of the plane inside. The pressure (压力) on a small window is like a huge foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane would explode (爆炸)in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, the plane is lowered into a huge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. The pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.
The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flights in the air. The pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines (发动机) are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot’s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again. These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.
小题1:By doing the "tank test", the engineers can find out _______.
A.the amount of air in the plane | B.the strength of the plane structure |
C.the pressure inside and outside the plane | D.the power of the airplane engines |
A.It will be broken. | B.It will be made stronger. |
C.It will be filled with water. | D.It will be tested by pilots, |
A.The plane may explode in the air. | B.The pilot may lose control of the plane. |
C.The engines may be damaged. | D.Too much air may get into the plane. |
A.Two Important Tests on Airplanes | B.The Importance of Flying Safely |
C.The Danger of Testing Airplanes | D.How Airplanes Are Made and Tested |
