Most recently, it’s very common in students who need a parent present for job interviews. Naturally, it’s easy to blame the students in these situations, but the bigger problem is us. We—as parents—are so eager to shelter our kids that we fail to realize that this in itself is harming them.As the mother of two young sons, I have to remind myself constantly that the biggest responsibility I have as a parent is to help them develop the skills needed to live in, to live without me.So, I’ll let them fail.
I’ll let them fail because as long as they are safe and warm inside their comfort zones, they will never grow.And failure — along with loss, heartbreak, disappointment, etc.— will be part of growth for them.Call me the anti-tiger mom, but leaving them alone, is my way of helping them become equipped to fit in this world as we know it today.From terrorism and seemingly endless natural disasters, to our national debt and beyond, if we expect the next generation to stand up to the very real problems of our time, we need to stop feeding them and start teaching them how to fish.
My children now are becoming little masters of compromise, but they try to negotiate (協(xié)商) everything now.It’s a small price to help them learn a skill they’ll use for the rest of their lives, including when I don’t accompany them on job interviews.
小題1:Why do parents accompany their kids on job interviews?
A.Because they want to protect their kids from difficulties.
B.Because they think they can help them on the questions.
C.Because their kids are too shy to attend interviews.
D.Because their kids strongly request them to do so.
小題2:According to the author, what is beneficial to kids’ development?
A.Sheltering them.B.Keeping them safe.
C.Leaving them alone.D.Blaming them.
小題3:Why does the author stress failure in kids’ life?
A.To make them stronger than other kids.
B.To help them grow in this tough world.
C.To help them develop all social skills.
D.To make them learn to compromise.
小題4:Which of the following might be the best title for die text?
A.Never Shelter Your KidsB.Let Your Kids Fail
C.Be Eager to Grow UpD.Live Without Parents

If you look for a book as a present for a child, you will be spoiled for choice even in a year when there is no new Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling’s wizard is not alone: the past decade has been a harvest for good children’s books, which has set off a large quantity of films and in turn led to increased sales of classics such as The Lord of the Rings.
Yet despite that, reading is increasingly unpopular among children. According to statistics, in 1997 23% said they didn’t like reading at all. In 2003, 35% did. And around 6% of children leave primary school each year unable to read properly.
Maybe the decline is caused by the increasing availability(可利用性)of computer games. Maybe the books boom(繁榮)has affected only the top of the educational pile. Either way, Chancellor Gordon Brown plans to change things for the bottom of the class. In his pre-budget(預(yù)算) report, he announced the national project of Reading Recovery to help the children struggling most.
Reading Recovery is aimed at six-year-olds, who receive four months of individual daily half- hour classes with a specially trained teacher. An evaluation earlier this year reported that children on the scheme made 20 months’ progress in just one year, whereas similarly weak readers without special help made just five months’ progress, and so ended the year even further below the level expected for their age.
International research tends to find that when British children leave primary school they read well, but read less – often for fun than those elsewhere. Reading for fun matters because children who are keen on(熱衷) reading can expect lifelong pleasure and loving books is an excellent indicator(指示物)of future educational success. According to the OECD, being a regular and enthusiastic reader is of great advantage.
小題1:Which of the following is true of Paragraph 1?
A.Many children’s books have been adapted from films.
B.Many high-quality children’s books have been published.
C.The sales of classics have led to the popularity of films.
D.The sales of presents for children have increased.
小題2:Statistics suggested that ___.
A.the number of top students increased with the use of computers.
B.a(chǎn) decreasing number of children showed interest in reading.
C.a(chǎn) minority of primary school children read properly.
D.a(chǎn) large percentage of children read regularly.
小題3:What do we know about Reading Recovery?
A.An education of it will be made sometime this year.
B.Weak readers on the project were the most hardworking.
C.It aims to train special teachers to help children with reading.
D.Children on the project showed noticeable progress in reading.
小題4:Reading for fun is important because book-loving children ____.
A.takes greater advantage of the project.
B.shows the potential to enjoy a long life.
C.is likely to succeed in their education.
D.would make excellent future researchers.
小題5:The aim of this text would probably be ____.
A.to overcome primary school pupils’ reading difficulty.
B.to encourage the publication of more children’s books.
C.to remind children of the importance of reading for fun.
D.to introduce a way to improve early childhood reading.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red?  小題1:Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.  小題2: If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly
 小題3: A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.  小題4: A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自殺) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
小題5: It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray.
A.On the other hand, black is depressing.
B.They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as grow up—we are born with our preference.
C.The rooms are pained in different colors as you like.
D.If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colors.
G. Colors do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it.

The 47-year-old singer talks about the new album Symphony(交響樂) that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. And so I am going to put it to one side. After a while not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming, to parents especially, but I have never known anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”
Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhamsted (father a property developer who later committed suicide), she says: “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5,I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.
Brightman led the saucy dance troupe(辣妹三人舞) Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probably in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.
Brightman says she felt hostility(敵意) “from the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live, I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”
小題1: The first paragraph tells us that _____.
A.Brightman is very popular around the world except in America
B.Brightman’s musical style is a mixture of opera, pop and jazz
C.the British people don’t like her for her style of music
D.Brightman is much older than Andrew Lloyd Webber
小題2: Brightman decided to give up having children because _____.
A.she could adopt one
B.her life and career were unbelievably rich without children
C.she felt it normal not to have children
D.she was too busy
小題3:The following statements are true except ______.
A.Brightman first appeared in a West End musical at 5
B.Brightman disliked life on the campus
C.Brightman was very gifted when she was young
D.The saucy dance troupe made Brightman famous
小題4:The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means _____.
A.locatedB.a(chǎn)dmiredC.followedD.found
小題5: What does the author try to say in the last paragraph by quoting Brightman’s words?
A.Brightman has to accept the fact that she is not liked in Britain
B.Brightman lives in America but she loves her own country
C.The British coldness towards Brightman led to her hatred to her homeland
D.Brightman was at a loss why she was not welcome in Britain

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, intermediate and long-term goals. Short-term goals are those that usually deal with present activities. Such goals can be achieved in a week or two, or possible months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation (基礎(chǔ)), our long-term goals cannot be achieved without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the time and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school years, or they could extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you never allow yourself to become discouraged. As you complete each step, you will have more belief in your ability to grow and succeed.
Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static (靜態(tài)的) thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
小題1: The long-term goals mean______.
A.something static and easy to get if we complete our short-term goals
B.something easy to reach if we complete a short-term goal in time
C.nothing but our dreams of future
D.a(chǎn) lot, such as a dream, and aspiration (熱望) or a wish in our life
小題2:When we complete each step of our goals, ______.
A.we will win final successB.we become down-hearted
C.we should encourage ourselvesD.we should think about changing our goals
小題3: It is the most important for us students to have ___________ first.
A.long-term goalsB.intermediate goals
C.short-term goalsD.dreams of future
小題4:Which of the following titles is best for this passage?
A.Three Kinds of GoalsB.How to Reach Goals
C.Changeable GoalsD.Moveable Goals

I went on line to check if my pay was in my bank account(賬戶). To my amazement I discovered that not only had I been paid, but a company I’d never worked for had also paid me! I know I would have been beside myself (情緒失控) if my own salary was not in my account, so I tried to get the money back to the right person. Easier said than done.
The bank couldn’t help as it “wasn’t a bank problem.” The human-resource department at the company that paid me was unable to help as I didn’t have enough details. I rang the bank again. Thankfully I had a sympathetic call operator who gave me a name, so I again rang the company “Daniel” worked for.
I expected the bank would contact me to arrange to take the money from my account and repay Daniel. I heard nothing for a month and the money remained in my account when Daniel called, explaining he’d tried to get back his money but had been unsuccessful as neither the bank nor his company felt it was their error. He had rung to ask if I could speak to the bank, but after chatting for a few minutes we realized we could probably fix this problem ourselves.
We decided I would take the money from my account and he would pick it up from me. Due to my busy job I was unable to meet Daniel personally but he left me a lovely bottle of wine in exchange for what was rightfully his. I never had any intention of keeping Daniel’s pay but red tape(繁瑣手續(xù))made it difficult to do the right thing. It all came down to two people being able to do what a huge bank and a large company couldn’t do — admit a mistake has occurred and fix it.
小題1:What was the attitude of the author towards the extra money in his bank account?
A.He didn’t know what to do with it.B.He felt lucky to get it.
C.He thought of keeping it for himself.D.He wanted to return it to the right person.
小題2: How was the problem solved in the end?
A.The author and Daniel solved the problem themselves.
B.It cost Daniel a lovely bottle of wine to get back his money.
C.The author gave the money back to the company.
D.The call operator offered to solve their problem.
小題3:From the passage we can infer that _________.
A.the bank could solve the problem soon and easily with the red tape
B.some large organizations usually have troublesome official rules
C.Daniel didn’t know the error until he contacted the author
D.it was easy for a company to have a mistake which had occurred fixed
