Child development

People live much longer than most other animals, so human childhood also lasts a long time. Unlike baby animals, human children need many years to learn how to live on their own as adults. As children’s bodies grow, so do their minds. 1.

There are several stages of child development. Infancy (嬰兒期) is the most helpless stage. Over their first year infants gradually learn to roll over, sit up, crawl (爬), and take their first steps with someone helping them. As they grow out of infancy, babies begin to make sounds similar to words.

The toddler stage (學步期) begins when a baby starts to walk, usually at about the age of 1. Most children also start saying words at about this time. As toddlers grow they become stronger and have more control of their bodies. Their thinking skills also improve. 2. They like to copy what other people say and do.

Between the ages of 3 and 5, children are in the preschool stage. Children learn many important skills during this stage. They learn to share and to take turns. 3. Playing with others helps them learn how to get along with all kinds of people.

Starting school marks a new stage. Children’s minds develop quickly as they learn reading and writing. They also learn more about cooperating with others.

Between 9 and 12 years old, children are preteens. 4. They become better at controlling their behavior. Preteens also understand how to be helpful to others.

Many people believe that that dogs should not be kept in large cities.They say that pet dogs should be banned because they are dangerous to man since they carry diseases and that they attack people especially young children.__ 1.__ For example,they eat large quantities of food that could go to feed the poor and the starving of the world.

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學年江蘇丹陽高中高二下期中考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：書面表達

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。

As we all know, life is full of dreams and having a good dream is of great importance in our daily life. Without a good dream, people can’t make progress; without a good dream, countries can’t develop; without a good dream, the world can’t become so beautiful! And I hold the strong belief that everyone, whether he is old or young, poor or rich, junior or senior, does have a good dream! After all, dreaming is certainly a positive part of our life, and wishing for good things, however, costs nothing!

What’s more, it is important to fly our dreams, especially for those who are Senior 3 students. It is high time for them to fly their dreams. If they can’t let their dreams fly, the dream would just die!

Therefore, it is no wonder that so many people have a dream since their childhood. With a nice dream, China succeeded to host the 29th Olympic Games in 2008; with a nice dream, Hong Kong returned to the motherland peacefully in 1997; with a nice dream, Yuan Longping rids the world of hunger; with a nice dream, Michael Jordon becomes the most popular basketball star; with a nice dream I can stand on this stage to compete in the final English speech contest. And with an aim of achieving success, I must do the best!

So my good friends, if you want to realize your dream, please do not be afraid in face of difficulties or give up in face of failure nor lose your dream in face of pains. You must keep going forward bravely! Just fly your dream highly above the sky!
