Many parents have learned the hard way that what sounds like open communication is otfen the very thing that closes a youngster’s ears and mouth, One common mistake is the Lecture, the long monologue that often starts with “When I was your age……”Eighteen –year –old Kelly calls lectures “Long , one-side discussions in which I don’t say much.”
Kids reflexively(條件反射地)shout down in the face of a lecture , Their eyes glaze over(呆滯),and they don’t register any incoming information , Listen to 13-year –old Sarah describe her least favorite times with her mom and dad, “First, they scream, Then comes the“We’re so disappointed’ speech , Then the ‘I never did that to my parents’ lecture begins , After that, even if they realize how ridiculous they sound, they never take it back’”.
Lines like “When you have children of your own, you’ll understand” have been seriously said by parents since time immemorial, But many of our expert parents, like Bobby , a registered nurse and mother of three, feel that by falling back on cliches(陳詞濫調)to justify our actions, we weaken our position.
Since kids are creatures of here and now, the far-off future has no relevance to them, Therefore ,good communicators like Bobby suggest, “Give specific reasons for your actions in present language:‘I’m not letting you go to the party because I don’t think there will be enough adult supervisions(監(jiān)護)”。
Betty, who lives in Missouri ,uses and indirect approach, “I find that warnings are accepted more readily if I discuss a news article on a subject I am concerned about, My husband and I talk about it while our children absorb the information, Then they never think I’m preaching(布道)”.
This really helped when Betty’s kids began driving , Instead of constantly repeating “Don’t drink; don’t speed”, She would talk about articles in the paper and express sympathy for the victims of a car crash, Betty made no special effort to draw her kids into the conversation, She depended on a teenager’s strong desire to put in his opinions—especially if he thinks he isn’t being asked for them.
小題1:The purpose of the passage is to       
A.compare two ways of parents’ communicating with their kids
B.give parents advice on how to communicate with their kids
C.explain why kids won’t listen to their parents
D.introduce kids’ reaction to the communication between them and their parents

B.Many kids think they have no right to express their own opinions
C.Some kids think their parents should apologize when they are wrong
D.Kids don’t like any discussion at all.

小題4:Which of the following topic may appeal to kids?
A.Parents own experience
B.Kids possible life in the future
C.Something related to kids’ present life
D.What parents have done to their own parents
小題5:In order to make kids follow their advice, parents should       
A.tell their kids to listen carefully
B.set out their warnings directly
C.list out as many examples as possible
D.arouse kids’ desire to express themselves

小題1:B
小題2:D
小題3:A
小題4:C
小題5:D

試題分析:文章主要講了父母對孩子談話需要注意的事項,他們常會說一些讓孩子認為無趣的陳詞濫調,而孩子也無法完全接受需要傳達的信息。
小題1:主旨大意題。文章主要是給家長一些可行的交流建議,讓他們在與孩子談話時能取得理想的成果,所以選B
小題2:細節(jié)題。D項說孩子不喜歡任何形式的談話過于絕對,是不正確的,ABC項都能在文中找到根據,所以選D
小題3:詞義理解題。根據上下文,這里的名詞monologue強調的是只有家長一方在說話的狀態(tài),所以是獨白,選擇A
小題4:細節(jié)題。根據文章第五段I find that warnings are accepted more readily if I discuss a news article on a subject I am concerned about,可知孩子更能接受與他們現實生活有關的話題,所以選C

Today, there are many chances for those who wish to continue their education. However, nearly all require some break in one’s career in order to attend school full time.      
Part-time education, that is, attending school at night or for one weekend a month, tends to drag the process out over time and puts the completion of a degree program out of reach of many people. Additionally, such programs require a fixed time commitment which can also impact negatively on one’s career and family time. 
Of the many approaches to teaching and learning, however, perhaps the most flexible (靈活的) is that called distance learning. Distance learning is an educational method which allows the students the flexibility to study at his or her own pace to achieve the academic goals which are so necessary in today’s world. The time required to study may be set aside at the student’s convenience. Additionally, the student may enroll in distance learning courses from actually any place in the world, while continuing to pursue their chosen career. Individual assistance may be available via regular airmail, telephone, fax machine, teleconferencing and over the Internet.
Good distance learning programs are characterized by the inclusion of a subject evaluation tool with every subject, so a student doesn’t need to travel away from home to take a test. Another characteristic of a good distance learning program is the equivalence (等同) of the distance learning course with the same subject materials as those students taking the course on the home campus. The resultant diploma or degree should also be the same whether distance learning or on-campus study is employed. The individuality of the professor/student relationship is another characteristic of a good distance learning program. In the final analysis, a good distance learning program has a place not only for the individual student but also the company or business that wants to work in partnership with their employees for the educational benefit, professional development, and business growth of the organization. Supporting distance learning programs for their employees gives the business the advantage of retaining (留住) career-minded people while contributing to their personal and professional growth through education.   
小題1:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a disadvantage of part time education?
A.It requires some break in one’s career.   
B.It tends to last too long for many people to complete a degree program.  
C.It affects one’s career.  
D.It gives the student less time to share with the family.
小題2: Which of the following is NOT an advantage of distance learning?   
A.The student may choose his or her own pace. 
B.The student may study at his or her convenience.  
C.They can pursue their chosen career while studying.  
D.Individual assistance comes through regular airmail, telephone and fax machine.

Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low that you can see their underwear? What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today’s teenagers are big fans of such a look. But recently this trend has been at the center of an argument in Italian middle schools. The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans that expose underwear and parts of the body. His request came after a class trip, when he saw one boy's baggy trousers slide to his feet. He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school. But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the headmaster's request will limit students' freedom— or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual. A parents' group praised the move in favor of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings. “We do not want to kick fashion out,” the headmaster explained, “but extremes of fashion like this are not right in school.” Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers. Most students have simply ignored the request. Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf. Another 14-year-old said she would probably respect the request, simply for practical reasons. “I don't really feel comfortable in those sort of jeans,” said Sarah Lattanzi, “in winter, when dressed like that, it's quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.”
小題1:What led to the argument in Italian middle schools?______
A.Students' craze for fashions.B.Clothes that are too exposing.
C.Students' ignoring dress codes.(規(guī)則)D.Students' underwear.
小題2:Which of the following supports the headmaster's request?___
A.Fashion should be taken seriously.
B.Fashion should not be followed in school.
C.Students should have their freedom in choosing what they wear.
D.Students should be encouraged to have good taste in clothes.
小題3: The argument against the headmaster's request is that ______.
A.dress in Italian schools is too casual
B.fashion should not be followed in school
C.schools should pay attention to things more important than students' clothes
D.low-rise jeans can do harm to youngster's health
小題4:The purpose of this story is to ________
A.show Chinese students that wearing very fashionable clothes in school is under attack in other countries, too.
B.show that dress code is necessary even in a country like Italy
C.let us see that Italian students react differently to schools' requests.
D.tell us that a debate started in Italian middle schools over the way students dress in School

At the beginning of this century, medical scientists made an interesting discovery; we are built not just of flesh and blood but also of time.

The        of “a body clock” should not be too        since the lives of most living things are controlled        the 24 hour night-and-day cycle. We feel        and fall asleep at night and become        and energetic during the day. If the 24 hour-cycle is        , most people experience unpleasant        . For example, people who are not        to working at night can find that        of sleep causes them to        badly at work.

Teachers and parents usually pay attention to the pictures when they read storybooks to preschool children. But a new study suggests that paying attention to the words and letters on the page may lead to better readers.
The two-year study compared children who were read to this way in class with children who were not. Those whose teachers most often discussed the print showed clearly higher skills in reading, spelling and understanding. These results were found one year and even two years later.
Shayne Piasta, an assistant professor of teaching and learning at Ohio State University, was an author of the study. She says most preschool teachers would find this method manageable and would need only a small change in the way they teach. They already read storybooks in class. The only difference would be increased attention to the printed text.
Ms Piasta says if you get children to pay attention to letters and words, it makes sense that they will do better at word recognition and spelling. But she says research suggests that very few parents and teachers do this in a systematic(系統的) way.
More than 300 children aged four and five were observed in classrooms in Ohio and Virginia. The children came from poor families and were below average in their language skills. This put them at risk of reading problems later. For 30 weeks, the children took part in a program called Project STAR. It tests the short-term and long-term results of reading regularly to preschool children in their classrooms.
There’re different ways that adults can talk to children about print. They can point to a letter and discuss it, and even trace the shape with a finger. They can point out a word, “This is a ‘dog’.” They can discuss how the words tell the story. And they can talk about the organization of the print—for example, showing how words are written left to right in English.
小題1:According to the text, Shayne Piasta _______.
A.worked in a middle school
B.didn’t attend the research at all
C.liked kids to be educated through words
D.hoped to increase kids’ interest through pictures
小題2:According to the text, Project STAR ____.
A.focused on adults’ education
B.was to study reading results
C.was mainly conducted at home
D.tested kids with good reading skills
小題3:What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A.Why words have meanings.
B.Different expressions of words.
C.How words are spelled differently.
D.Ways of teaching about print.
小題4: The text may appear in ____.
A.Child Development
B.Daily Technology
C.International Affairs
D.Health Development

About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man can not see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green - a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes (蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible (看不見的) colors around.
小題1:Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?
A.Women are more careful.
B.There are few color-blind women.
C.Women are fonder of driving than men.
D.Women are weaker but quicker in thinking
小題2:This passage is mainly about ________.
A.color and its surprising effects
B.women being luckier than men
C.danger caused by color blindness
D.color blindness
小題3:According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can ________.
A.tell orange from yellow
B.see in weak light
C.kill mosquitoes
D.tell different shapes
小題4:We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a ________.
A.red lightB.yellow lightC.blue lightD.green light

Dan Bebber is a senior research fellow at the University of Exeter in Britain. He says research has shown that wild plants and animals are moving toward Earth's North and South poles as the planet warms.
Mr Bebber wanted to know if the same thing was happening with organisms that attack agricultural crops. He examined reports of first sightings of new insects and diseases around the world. The records came from CABI - the Centre for Agricultural Bioscience International. He says the group began collecting information from developing and industrialized countries years ago.
Dan Bebber and his research team studied 612 different organisms - from viruses and bacteria to insects like beetles and butterflies. They found that since 1960, crop pests and diseases have been moving toward the poles at an average rate of about 3 kilometers each year. Mr Bebber says this puts the most productive farmland in the world in danger.
"As new species of pests and diseases evolve and potentially the environment for them becomes more amenable at higher latitudes, the pressure on the breadbaskets of the world is going to increase."
Farmers face other threats. Invasive species passed through trade are also causing problems. Gene Kritsky is an Entomologist at the College of Mount St. Joseph in Ohio. He specialises in the study of insects. He says climate change may improve conditions for some invasive species.
“It means that species in other parts of the world that might do well in warmer temperatures can now do well in the breadbasket of America.”
Another Entomologist Christian Krupke of Purdue University says the effects of these changes will depend very much on the crop, the insect and the disease. But he says the research is a warning sign that people should care about climate change and do something about it.
小題1:The purpose of Dan Bebber’s research was to find ______.
A.if farmland could be moved to colder places thanks to global warming
B.if diseases and insects harmful to crops were going towards colder areas
C.if organisms were moving to the north and south poles
D.if the number of crop pests was increasing
小題2:According to Dan Bebber, if crop pests keep moving towards the poles, ______.
A.it will be hard for farmers to kill them
B.the most productive farmland will produce more crops
C.the earth will not produce enough food to support the world
D.the conditions for some crops may be improved
小題3:Which of the following is not a threat that farmers have to face?
A.Climate change helps crop pests to adapt to new environment.
B.Foreign species are brought in by trade.
C.Invasive species doing well in warmer places might do well in America.
D.The impacts of the climate and species changes on crops are not easy to determine.
小題4:The underlined word “amenable” in the fourth paragraph most probably means ______.
A.agreeableB.terribleC.unfriendlyD.changeable

Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out,which is thought to be responsible for global warming.
Thanks to special bacteria in the stomachs,kangaroo flatulence(腸胃氣脹)contains no methane(甲烷)and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep which produce large quantities of the harmful gas.
While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a huge factory chimney pushing out carbon dioxide,farm animals’ passing wind contributes to a surprisingly high percentage of total emission(排放物)in some countries.
“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia is from methane from cattle and sheep,’’said Athol Klieve,a senior research scientist with the Queensland state government.
“And if you look at another country such as New Zealand,which has got a much higher agricultural base,they are actually up around 50 percent,”he said.
Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.
But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate the bacteria before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.
Another group of scientists,meanwhile,has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.And about twenty percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.
“It’s low in fat,it’s got high protein levels and it’s very clean in the sense that basically it’s the free-range(放養(yǎng)的)animal,”said Peter Ampt of the University of New South Wales’s institute of environmental studies.
小題1:The passage mainly talks about ________.
A.a better way to prevent air pollution
B.the danger of methane from farm animals
C.possible solutions to protecting environment
D.a recent research on global warming
小題2: Scientists intend to put the bacteria into cattle and sheep in order to ________.
A.prevent them from sending out harmful gases
B.promote Australian farming
C.protect Australian ecosystem
D.make the most of the special bacteria
小題3:Another possible solution to the problem is ________.
A.to reduce the number of animals raised on farms
B.to eat more kangaroos rather than keep more sheep and cattle
C.to eat more plants rather than beef and mutton
D.to grow more trees to absorb carbon dioxide
小題4:From the passage we learn that ________.
A.it is easy to transfer the bacteria to cattle and sheep
B.farm animals are to blame for global warming in some countries
C.cattle and sheep produce more methane than kangaroos
D.less cattle and sheep are raised in New Zealand
