15．Tips for Teaching Kids Responsibility
Your best friend has a teenager who helps with housework without being asked．Your cousin has a one-year-old child that puts her bottle in the sink when she finishes the milk，but no reminders are needed．（36）D Raising helpful，good kids who know how to make a sandwich is not a fantasy!The following tips can give you a better chance of raising a responsible child who then grows into a responsible adult．
（37）E You can't suddenly spring responsibility on a teenager and expect he will know how to follow through．He needs time to practice and totally understand what responsibility means．
Let kids help you．Don't complain when it's time to do housework．Smile and invite your son to help．（38）F He will take these good feelings and learn to take ownership of his home and feel pride in keeping it up．
（39）C Make responsibilities age-appropriate．You can show how to complete small tasks in daily life and perform them at a child's skill level．For example，if your kid wants a snack，show him where the apples are and how to wash one off．
Teach your child consequences．Learning to take care of his things also helps a child develop a sense of responsibility for his actions．Get your son to clean up after an art project，and inform him that he won't be able to play with his crayons the next day if he leaves a messy table．（40）GThe more you carry out the rules，the more likely he is to clean up without being asked

A．Have a sense of responsibility．
B．Why do they make a sandwich for kids？
C．Show kids how to perform responsibility．

If ever a drink were invented to satisfy the thirst of social media, this may be it.

With its fantastic name, bright pink and blue twist topped with a pillow of whipped cream, Starbucks’ new Unicom Frappuccino(獨(dú)角獸星冰樂) practically asks to be posted on social media.

And a glimpse at Twitter shows Unicom Frappuccino is indeed gaining attention.

So what's in it? As Starbucks describes it: “A sweet dusting of pink powder, mixed into a Frappuccino with mango syrup and layered with a pleasantly sour blue drizzle. It is finished with vanilla whipped cream and a sprinkle of sweet pink and sour blue powder topping.”

A look at the ingredients reveals a list less fantastic. The pink powder is actually sugar and "Fruit and Vegetable Color.”

Starbucks advertises the drink “,as rare as a unicorn." But unicorn food is actually a thing. The BBC reports, it's fashionable to post pictures of rainbow colored food which reminds of the fairy tale creature.

Rainbow sushi, anyone?

As for the Unicorn Frappuccino, Lori Aquino said the drink caught her eye on social media. Then people at work were talking about it. “I saw it was coming out today, so I decided to try it,” Aquino said at a Washington D.C. Starbucks. “I'll probably put it on Snapchat or Instagram.”

She bought one to share with her two coworkers.

And the opinion?

“It’s kind of nasty,” Aquino said.

Letitia Winston agreed: "Nope. That will not be something I come looking for."

But Moriam Animashaun was more forgiving. "It's not bad,” she said, “It's just really sweet.”

A 16-ounce medium, or a grande in Starbucks speak, comes in at 410 calories, 59 grams of sugar and 16 grams of fat.

One thing the women agreed on was the drink’s appearance. “It’s pretty," said Animashaun.

“It looks nice," agreed Winston.

And in the age of likes, snaps and tweets, the fantasy image may be all that matters.

The Unicom Frappuccino is available April 19 through April 23 at participating stores in the United Stales, Canada and Mexico.

1.What do we learn about Starbucks’ new Unicom Frappuccino from the passage?

A. The customers are attracted to try it by its fantastic name only.

B. Lori Aquino first learned about the drink from her coworkers and then saw it get popular on social media,

C. You can purchase a Unicom Frappuccino at any Starbucks store in North America from April 19 to April 23.

D. The author may agree that the fantasy image helps the Unicorn Frappuccino gain great popularity.

2.What was Lori and her co-workers’ reaction after they tasted the Unicom Frappuccino themselves?

A. They thought it was good value for the money.

B. They thought it lived up to their expectations,

C. They agreed that the look of the drink was attractive.

D. They thought it was the very drink they were looking for.

3.Which do you think is most probably the title for this passage?

A. Unicom Frappuccino is Coming Soon

B. Unicorn Frappuccino is Getting Popular

C. Unicom Frappuccino: A Digital Age Drink

D. Unicorn Frappuccino: An Eye-catching Healthy Drink

科目：高中英語 來源：2017屆湖南省衡陽市高三實(shí)驗(yàn)班第一次模擬考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

In a class this past December, after I wrote some directions on the board for students about their final examination, one young woman quickly took a picture of the board using her smart phone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized, “Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture?”

“I can’t read my own handwriting,” the young woman explained. “It’s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.”

That remark started a class-wide discussion about taking a picture instead of taking notes. For those in the photo-taking camp, reasons extended(擴(kuò)展) beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, but they wouldn’t lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly the way in which I had noted information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively.

Yet the use of cameras may be convenient, it does raise questions for the classroom. Is a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking?

Teachers encourage students to take notes because the act of doing so is more than just recording necessary information—it helps prepare the way for understanding. Encouraging students to take notes may be an old-fashioned method, but just because a method has a long history doesn’t mean it’s out of date. Writing things down engages a student’s brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic(觸覺的) learning. The act of writing down information enables a person to begin to memorize, to process and combine it, helping learning new knowledge.

Taking a picture does indeed record the information, but it lacks some of the necessary mental activities that taking notes employs. So can the two be equally effective?

1.The woman apologized in the class because she_________.

A. took a picture of the board B. missed the teachers’ directions

C. had the bad handwriting D. disturbed other students’ learning

2.According to the passage, which of the following may NOT explain students’ unwillingness to take notes?

A. They believe smart phones are much safer for storing notes.

B. They want to listen more attentively in class.

C. They lack proper techniques for taking notes.

D. They want to have the exact version of the notes on the board.

3.According to the passage, taking notes by hand__________.

A. requires students to think independently

B. seems unsuitable for students to learn new ideas

C. proves to be an old and useless learning method

D. helps students actively participate in learning

4.What is the main idea of this passage?

A. The traditional way of note-taking should be replaced.

B. Note-taking by hand is not out of date.

C. A modern way of note-taking is catching on.

D. A picture is worth a thousand words.
