Playing is serous business for children. In fact, it’s what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids will probably say, “Because it’s fun!” But it’s much more than that. It’s also good for them.
Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get know their new world. Touching allows them to discover how different things feel. Brightly colored toys and clothing help develop a baby’s sense of sight. 
When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions. 
Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination. Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech toy. That’s because a box can become anything a child imagines it to be. 
Crayons, paints and Play-Doh(彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to create. Traditional building blocks teach important pre-math skills like problem-solving. 
Playing doesn’t become any less important once children start school. Many valuable lessons about life are learned on the school playground. Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules.

Many people think of guys as being carefree when it comes to their appearance. But in fact, a lot of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror. They care just as much as girls do about their body image.
Body image is a person’s opinions and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearance.    71    . You appreciate your body for its capabilities and accept its imperfections.
72    . Here are some ideas:
Recognize your strengths. Different body types are good for different things. What does your body do well? Maybe your speed, strength, or coordination makes you better than others at a certain sport. That may be basketball, table tennis, mountain biking, dancing, or even running. Or perhaps you have non-sports skills, like drawing, painting, singing, playing a musical instrument, writing, or acting,      73    .
Exercise regularly. Exercise can help you look good and feel good about yourself. Good physiques (體形) don’t just happen.     74    . A healthy habit can be as simple as exercising 20 minutes to 1 hour three days a week. Working out can also lift your spirits.
Respect your body! Practicing good habits ---- regular showering; taking care of your teeth, hair, and skin; wearing clean clothes, and so on ---- can help you build a positive body image.
75    . Your body is just one part of who you are. Your talent for comedy, a quick wit (智慧), and all the other things make you unique. So try not to let small imperfections take over.
A.Use this as an opportunity to discover what you’re good at.
B.Be yourself.
C.Having a positive body image means feeling satisfied with the way you look.
D.Just explore talents that you feel good about.
E. They take hard work, regular workouts, and a healthy diet.
F. The good news is that self-image and body image can be changed.
G. So, what can you do to develop a positive body image?

三、閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)
A
What exactly is a lie? Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you. You say, "I wish I could help you but I'm short of money myself." In fact you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you don't want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this really a lie?
Professor Gerald Gullion of the University of Southern California has made a scientific study of lying. According to him, women are better liars than men, particularly when telling a "white lie", such as a woman at a party telling another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks awful. However, this is only one side of the story. Other researchers say that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liars hopes to profit or gain in some way.
Research has also been done into the changes of people’s behavior in a number of small, clearly unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. To the trained observer they are saying “I wish I were somewhere else now”. They also tend to touch certain parts of the face more often, in particular the nose. One explanation of this may be that lying causes a slight increase in blood pressure. The nose is very sensitive to such changes and the increased pressure makes it itch (癢).
Another gesture which gives away is what the writer Desmond Morris in his book Man Watching calls “the mouth cover”. He says there are several typical forms of this, such as covering part of the mouth with fingers, touching the upper-lip or putting a finger of the hand at one side of the mouth. Such a gesture can be understood, as an unconscious attempt on the part of the liar to stop himself or herself from lying.
Of course, such gestures as rubbing the nose or covering the mouth, or moving about in a chair cannot be taken as proof that the speaker is lying. They simply tend to occur more frequently in this situation. It is not one gesture alone that gives the liar away but a whole number of things, and in particular the context in which the lie is told.
41.According to the passage, a “white lie” seems to be a lie _______.
A.that other people have interest in
B.that other people cannot believe
C.told in order to avoid offending(冒犯) someone
D.told in order to take advantage of someone
42.Research suggests that women _______.
A.a(chǎn)re better at telling lies than men do     B.generally lie far more than men
C.often make promises they later break    D.lie at parties more often than men do
43.Researchers find that    when a person tells lies.
A.his or her blood pressure increases greatly
B.he or she looks very serious and moves about more
C.he or she tends to make small changes in his behavior
D.he or she uses his unconscious mind
44.One reason people sometimes rub their noses when they lie is that_______
A.1ying causes a slight increase in blood pressure
B.the nose is sensitive to physical changes caused by lying
C.they want to cover their mouths
D.they are trying to stop themselves from telling lies
45.Which of the following may best betray (出賣) a liar?
A.The touching of the tip of one’s nose.  B.The change of one’s behavior.
C.“The mouth cover” gesture.           D.The situations in which his lies are told.

C
The questions of what children learn, and how they should learn it, is continually being debated and reheated. Nobody dares any longer to defend the old system, the parrot – fashion (way of learning by repeating what others say) of learning lessons, the grammar with a whip system,which was good enough for our grandparents.The theories of modern psychology have stepped into argue that we must understand the needs of children.Children are not just small adults;they are children who must be respected as such.
Well,you may say,this is as it should be,and a good idea.But think further.What happens?
‘Education’ becomes the responsibility not of teachers, but of psychologists.What happens then? Teachers worry too much about the psychological implications of their lessons,and forget about the subjects themselves.If a child dislikes a lesson,the teacher feels that it is his fault,not the child’s. So teachers worry whether history is ‘relevant’ to modem young children.And do they dare to recount stories about violent battles? Or will this make the children themselves violent? Can they tell their classes about children of different races,or will this encourage racial hatred? Why teach children to write grammatical sentences? Verbal expression is better.Sums? Arithmetic? No:real—life mathematical situations are more understandable.
You see.you can go too far.Influenced by educational theorists,who have nothing better to do than write books about their ideas,teachers leave their teacher—training colleges filled with grand,psychological ideas about children and their needs. They make complicated preparations and try out their ‘modern methods’ on the long – suffering children. Since one ‘modern method’ rapidly replaces another, the poor kids will have well been fed up by the time they leave school. frequently the modern methods are so complicated that they fail to be understood by the teachers, let alone the children; even more often, the relaxed discipline so necessary for the ‘informal’ feeling the class must have, prevents all but a handful of children from learning anything.
63.Under the old system, children were           .
A.made to learn passively                        B.good enough to their grandparents
C.made to learn actively                          D.understood and respected by teachers
64.What happens when teachers pay too much attention to the psychological implications during a lesson?
A.They find that children dislike the lessons.
B.They worry too much about history, stories, racial hatred, grammar and arithmetic.
C.They don’t pay enough attention to what students are learning.
D.They tend to blame students for their failure in teaching.
65.How do you understand the underlined sentence at the end of the passage?
A.Children will learn well in a relaxed classroom atmosphere.
B.Few children will actually learn when there is no discipline.
C.Relaxed discipline is necessary for children to develop.
D.No children will learn anything without strict discipline.
66.What is the author’s attitude toward the theories of modern psychology?
A.Indifferent (不關(guān)心的).                       B.Tolerant (容忍的).
C.Supportive (支持的).                           D.Critical (批評(píng)的).

He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his family's cabin on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.
On the day before the bass season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish and perch(鱸魚)with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure(魚餌)and practiced casting. The lure struck the water and caused colored ripples in the sunset, then silver ripples as the moon rose over the lake.
When his pole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully worked the fish alongside the dock.
Finally, he very gingerly lifted the exhausted fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass. The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish, gills playing back and forth in the moonlight. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 P.M.--- two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy.
"You'll have to put it back, son," he said.
"Dad!" cried the boy.
"There will be other fish," said his father.
"Not as big as this one," cried the boy.
He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could tell by the clarity of his father's voice that the decision was not negotiable. He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the black water.
The creature swished its powerful body and disappeared. The boy suspected that he would never again see such a great fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. His father's cabin is still there on the island in the middle of the lake. He takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.
He was right. He has never again caught such a magnificent fish as the one he landed that night long ago. But he does see that same fish---again and again---every time he comes up against a question of ethics(道德規(guī)范).
66. Why did the father ask his son to put the perch back?
A. Because the father disliked the perch.  B. Because the father was afraid of being fined.
C. Because the ethics must be observed.
D. Because the son was more experience in fishing than his father.
67. The underlined word “negotiable” in the passage refers to _________.
A. reasonable     B. transferable     C. acceptable    D. reliable
68. When does the architect (the father’s son) think of that perch put back?
A. When he takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.
B. When he builds many famous buildings.
C. When he pays a visit to his old father.
D. When he faces some problems about ethics.
69. Which word can not be used to describe the boy’s father?
A. honest    B. noble-minded      C. caring        D. generous
70. From the passage, we can learn _________.
A. how we do the right thing and are strengthened
B. how we have a chance to beat the system and take it
C. how we master some skills of going fishing
D. how we understand our parents’ words is very important

A
Mr. Brozina is a single father and an elementary school librarian who reads aloud for a living. When his daughter, Kristen, hit fourth grade, he proposed The Streak: to see if they could read together for 100 straight bedtimes without missing once.
When The Streak reached 100, they celebrated with a pancake breakfast, and Kristen whispered, "I think we should try for 1,000 nights."
Mr. Brozina was delighted, but what he was thinking was, a thousand nights?! "I thought, we'll never do it," he recalled. "And then we got to 1,000, and we said, 'How can we stop?' "
For 3,218 nights (and some mornings, if Mr. Brozina was coming home too late to read). The Streak went on. It progressed from picture books to middle-school classics to Harry Potter, Agatha Christie, Dickens and Shakespeare, continuing on, until Kristen's first day of college.
In those nine-plus years, they survived many close calls. When Kristen was still in elementary school, her father went to Washington. "The phone rang at 10:45 at the hotel and it was Kristen," Mr. Brozina recalled. "She said, 'Dad, we forgot The Streak!' Fortunately, I always traveled with several books and we read right then and there."
This spring, Kristen graduated from Rowan' University. She has performed as you'd expect for a product of The Streak, an English major with a 3.94 average. She also won two national writing contests, was an editor of the humor arid literary publications and won the annual English department award.

A. 100 bedtimes                           B. 1000 nights                          C. over nine years                           D. nearly 3000 nights and some mornings

A. She has grown closer to her father.        
B. She has become a school librarian herself.

D. She has won many reading awards.
