first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting
to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states
of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young
child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other
hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural
enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.
Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in
money matters, others are sever over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the
controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child"s
own happiness.
As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in
parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also,
parents should realize that "example is better than precept". If they are not sincere and do not practice what
they preach (说教), their children may grow confused and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough
to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled. A sudden awareness of a marked
difference between their parents" principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.

D. will make him lose interest in learning new things

D. create as many learning opportunities as possible
B. parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of the community
C. parents should be strict with their children
D. it"s parents"and society"s duty to control the children
B. punishment
C. instruction
D. behaviour
B. be aware of the marked difference between adults and children

| National Family Week－an event that encourages families to spend more time together－carried out a study among 8－15 year olds. The study found 40% of girls thought Facebook was one of the most important things in their lives－compared with 6% of boys. Parents were found to underestimate (低估) the importance of Internet technology. The role of social networking was particularly important in families with a single mother as parent. The survey was carried out last month and based on 3,000 parents and 1,000 children across the UK. The survey shows that girls are using social networking as something central to their social and family life. Girls saw websites such as Facebook as much more influential (有影响力的) than television, magazines, famous people and even their own brothers and sisters. Asked to name the three most important things in their lives, the most popular choices for girls were friends, family and then Facebook and MSN. Girls are also more likely to believe that technology－in the form of social networking and mobile phones－plays an important role in their lives. While 41% of girls think technology is one of their biggest influences, only 17% of boys believe this. Girls see their big influences as parents, teachers and technology, while boys choose parents, friends and school as their big influences. The survey says that parents have failed to keep up with their children"s use of technology, overestimating (高估) their own importance in their children"s lives. The survey also looked at how children thought about their relationships with their parents. It found that both boys and girls would much rather have stories read to them by their mothers. However, girls felt closer to their fathers, while boys felt closer to their mothers. | |||
| 1.What can we know from the first paragraph? | |||
| A. The study was carried out by the government. B. The researchers studied more girls than boys. C. Boys liked to surf the Internet more than girls. D. Parents didn"t think the Internet was so important. | |||
| 2. How many people were included in the survey last month? | |||
| A. 1,000. B. 2,000. C. 3,000. D. 4,000. | |||
| 3. Which of the following is NOT among the three most important things for girls? | |||
| A. Teachers. B. Family. C. Facebook and MSN. D. Friends. | |||
| 4. According to the passage, the survey shows _____. | |||
| A. girls felt closer to their mothers B. children are better at using technology than their parents C. televisions are much more influential in girls than magazines D. more boys regard technology as one of the biggest influences than girls | |||

| Sheela spent three days memorizing a poem for an oral test, but her friend Nisha merely scanned a new poem twice before reciting it from memory! Why then was there a difference? Nisha just knew how to learn better than Sheela. She had increased the ability of her brain by using some skills. Here are some steps to better learning. Preview the matter first: That is, don"t plunge headlong into reading new, unfamiliar material. You can understand more if you first scan it or skim over it quickly. Read the first sentence of each paragraph, and glance at the table of contents and the preface. Slow down and read it aloud to yourself: Speed reading is fine for easy material but for more complex works, slower reading is much more effective. Good learners vocalize (发声), either loudly or in their minds, listening to each word as they read. They also actively think about what they read and take in it. Organize facts into categories: For instance, if you have to memorize a jumbled list containing names of animals, types of transport, items of clothing and kinds of jobs, it is easier if you divide them into groups or categories. Dividing it into smaller, meaningful parts makes it easier to learn. Be focused: To improve concentration (专心) and focus, fix a particular time and place for studying. Use a variety of methods, like writing down what you"ve read or taping it and then listening to it, or making an outline. Follow your own learning style: Each person has his own way of learning. lf given the pieces of an object to assemble (集合), each of us uses a different method to arrive at the same result. Analyze your approach and follow the method that you feel most comfortable with. | |||
| 1. The passage mainly tells us _____. | |||
| A. some ways to listen carefully B. some new memorizing skills C. some methods for reading complex works D. some good learning skills | |||
| 2. The example of Sheela and Nisha is used to _____. | |||
| A. show the difference between people in learning ability B. explain the difficulty in memorizing poems C. teach people how to memorize a poem quickly D. introduce the main topic - learning skills | |||
| 3. The underlined sentence in the passage probably means " _____". | |||
| A. don"t read new, unfamiliar material at all B. don"t read new, unfamiliar material without thinking carefully C. don"t read material with your head forward D. don"t read new, unfamiliar material that is too long | |||
| 4. The underlined word "jumbled" in the passage probably means "_____ ". | |||
| A. mixed B. detailed C. divided D. related | |||
| 5. Which of the following is advised by the author? | |||
| A. Listening to whatever you are reading. B. Reading all passages at slow speed. C. Taking an active part in your reading. D. Reading the last sentence of each paragraph | |||

| After a discussion last week. "Do SCHOOL Libraries Need Books?" the comments from readers included some first-hand views from students. Below are excerpts (摘录)from their observations on how studying has changed and how they use libraries. It makes little difference whether the books you are reading is electronic or paper. But if you want a place to read, a library is still the place to go. As a kid in school, I often avoid the study hall noises and go to the quiet school library. The library is a place. A learning place. Modern technology won"t change the library as long as things are learned. -Scott Being a student I am aware that many of us seldom look at the books in the library unless told to do so by a teacher as a requirement for an assignment. It takes time to find the very book you want at the library, and it may not be necessary to do so. More and more students, such as myself, use the internet for nearly every assignment. There are countless online resources for us to use with a click of the mouse. What"s more, books are very expensive and schools could put that money towards charities. -Hayley H I hope schools continue to have libraries. As a student, I know there is a difference between reading something on a screen and something printed. When I read something in a book that I do not understand or want to look further into. I record it and will research later or discuss with someone. With a screen (especially online) I will instantly access the information and look into the question at hand, which interrupts my reading and especially my imagination. -Allie To me, it depends on the purpose of the books. As a student, I prefer to do research online. Online research is faster and more efficient. But when I"m reading for pleasure, I absolutely refuse to give up a real book. The tactile sensation(触感)and freedom that real books give you really makes the reading experience more enjoyable. So my suggestion is that schools have more digital collections for research and scholarly work, and a good selection of interesting and age-appropriate fiction and nonfiction for pleasure reading. -CM | |||
| 1. In Scott"s opinion _____. | |||
| A. it"s necessary for a school to have a library B. there are many learning places better than a library C. the school library is noisy and crowded in most cases D. electronic books are totally different from paper books | |||
| 2. According to the text, Hayley H _____. | |||
| A. hopes school libraries can provide more books B. often searches for information at the library C. suggests schools spend less money on books D. thinks students rely on paper books to learn | |||
| 3. Allie believes that compared with book reading, screen reading _____. | |||
| A. takes more time B. interrupts (干扰) her imagination C. provides more information D. allows her to discuss with others | |||
| 4. Who prefers printed books when reading for fun? | |||
| A. Scott B.H ayleyH C. Allie D. CM | |||
| 5. Which of the following share a similar attitude towards online research? | |||
| A. Scott and HayleH B. HayleH and Allie C. HayleH and CM D. Allie and CM | |||

| [1] "Having a Sister Makes You Happier" was the headline on a recent article about a study finding that adolescents who have a sister are less likely to have such feelings as "I am unhappy, sad or depressed". But why? [2] The usual answer that girls and women are more likely than men to talk about emotions is somehow unsatisfying, especially to a researcher like me. Much of my work over the years shows that women"s styles of friendship and conversation aren"t better than men"s by nature, simply different. [3] My own recent research about sisters suggests a more subtle dynamic. Together with my students I interviewed more than 100 women about their sisters, but if they also had brothers, I asked them to make a comparison. Most said they talked to their sisters more often, at greater length and, yes, about more personal topics. This often meant that they felt closer to their sisters, but not always. One woman, for example, says she talks for hours by phone to her two brothers as well as her two sisters. But the topics differ. She talks to her sisters about their personal lives; with her brothers she discusses history, geography and books. And talking for hours creates and reinforces connections with both brothers and sisters, regardless of what they talk about. [4] So the key to why having sisters makes people happier-men as well as women - may lie not in the kind of talk they exchange but in the fact of talk. [5] So maybe it"s true that talk is the reason why having a sister makes you happier, but it needn"t be talk about emotions. When women told me more often, at greater length and about more personal topics, I suspect it"s that first element - more often - that is crucial rather than the last. | |||
