IV. 阅读理解

A

　　It is not only praise or punishment that determines a child’s level of confidence. There are some other important ways we shape our kids—particularly by giving instructions and commands in a negative or positive choice of words. For example, we can say to a child “Don’t run into traffic!” or “Stay on the footpath close to me. ” In using the latter, you will be helping your kids to think and act positively, and to feel competent in a wide range of situations, because they know what to do, and aren’t scaring themselves about what not to do.

　　Why does such a small thing make a difference? It is all in the way the human mind works. When we think, we automatically rehearse. For example, if someone offered you a million dollars not to think of a blue monkey for two minutes, you wouldn’t be able to do it. When a child is told “Don’t fall off the tree,” he will think of two things: “don’t” and “fall off the tree”. That is, he will automatically create the picture of falling off the tree in his mind. A child who is vividly imagining falling off the tree is much more likely to fall off. So it is far better to use “Hold on to the tree carefully. ”

　　Clear, positive instructions help kids to understand the right way to do things. Kids do not always know how to be safe, or how to react to the warning of the danger in negative words. So parents should make their commands positive.  “Sam, hold on firm to the side of the boat” is much more useful than “Don’t you dare to fall out of the boat?” or worse still “How do you think I’ll feel if you drown?” The changes are small but difference is obvious.

　　Children learn how to guide and organize themselves from the way we guide them with our words, so it pays to be positive.

1. Positive choice of words helps kids to_______.  

A. do things carefully

B. build up their confidence

C. improve their imagination

D. learn in different situation

2. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?

A. A child will act on what is instructed.

B. One can’t help imagining what is heard.

C. A child will fall off the tree when told not to.

D. One won’t think of a blue monkey when given money.

3. The main idea of the passage is that _______.  

A. praise makes kids confident

B. right instructions keep kids safe

C. clear commands make kids different

D. choice of words can make a difference

B

　　The clothes you wear. The food you eat. The color of your bedroom walls. Where you go and how you get there. The people you hang around with. What time do you go to bed?What do these things have in common?You’re asking. They’re just a few examples of many hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child.

　　As a kid,you didn’t have a say in everything;your parents made decisions about everything from the cereal(谷物) you ate in the morning to the pajamas(睡衣) you wore at night. And it’s a good thing,too—kids need this kind of protection on their own.

　　But finally,kids grow up and become teens. And part of being a teen is developing your own identity—one that is separate from your parents’. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes your own decisions,your parents have a difficult time adjusting(调整).

　　In many families,it is this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. And issues like the type of friends you have or your attitudes to partying can cause bigger arguments,because your parents still always want to protect you and keep you safe,no matter how old you are.

　　The good news about fighting with your parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teens have a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles,though. In the meantime,focus on communicating with your parents.

　　Sometimes this can feel impossible—like they just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents.

　　Keep in mind,too,that your parents were teens once and that in most cases,they can relate to what you’re going through.

4. In the first two paragraphs,the writer _______.  

A. complains that parents control kids too much

B. proves that kids have no right to give their opinions

C. describes how carefully parents look after kids

D. explains that it is necessary for parents to control kids

5. A lot of fighting breaks out between teens and parents because _______.  

A. parents aren’t used to losing control of kids

B. teens like to have everything decided

C. parents blame teens for not respecting them

D. teens are eager to develop their own identity

6. In the writer’s opinion,parents control teens in order to _______.  

A. prevent them from having their own ideas

B. protect them from being hurt

C. make them respect parents in the family

D. make sure that children have a good future

7. What might be the most suitable title of the passage?

A. What Do Parents Control Their Children for?

B. How Parents Take Care of Children?

C. How to Get Rid of Your Parents’ Control?

D. Why Do I Fight with Parents So Much?

V. 七选五

　　根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　　Much has been made about the need for teachers to develop healthy relationships with the parents of their students. Similarly, headmasters who hold the opportunity to build the relationships with parents will find it to be a worthwhile investment (投资).

　　As is known, headmasters spend much time on after-school activities. 　1　Great headmasters are good at finding common interests with almost any parent. They can talk about anything from the weather to politics to sports. Having these talks helps parents see you as a real person for the school. 　2　Knowing something personal about you will make it easier to trust and respect you.  

　　One simple strategy for building relationships with parents is to call 5—10 parents each week and ask them a sum of questions about the school, their children’s teachers, etc. Parents will love that you took the time to ask them their opinion. 　3　 A headmaster can invite a small group of parents to join them for lunch to talk about key problems the school is dealing with. These lunches can be scheduled every month or as needed. 　4　 

　　Finally, schools are almost always forming committees on different school-related topics. These committees should not be limited to school personnel. Inviting parents and students to serve on a committee brings a different viewpoint that can be beneficial for everyone. 　5　And they provide their stamp (印记) on their child’s education. Headmasters are able to use this time to continue to build relationships and ask for a viewpoint.  

A. Another strategy is a parent’s lunch.

B. Parents may not always agree with your decisions.

C. Parents get to be a part of the inner workings of the school.

D. This is a great opportunity to build informal relationships with parents.

E. The relationships between headmaster and parents are more distant.

F. They see you in part as the person who really likes their kids.

G. Adopting these strategies can really strengthen relationships with parents.

VI. 完形填空

　　As a child, I got angry quite easily and was not good at communicating with others.

　　One day, as I was getting ready for school, my mother 　1　 handed me my father’s vest (背心) instead of mine. At that time, I was getting to have a larger size than my father, so as I 　2　 the vest, I felt as if I wasn’t able to breathe! I realised that it was a small 　3　 on my mother’s part, but somehow the breathless feeling was so 　4　 that it made me very angry. My mother said sorry with a smile, but I 　5　 at her without thinking much. I got it off my body so wildly that I made a 　6　 in it. I put on my own vest and rushed out of the house 　7　 she could stop me.  

　　Later, my mother 　8　 her sadness with my father, “See what your son has done. ” Instead of saying he would scold (责骂 ) or 　9　 me, my father calmly asked my mother to mend the vest. He then wore it to 　10　.  

　　When my mother 　11　 me about my father’s response (反应) — much later, when I had recovered from my anger — I felt sorry for my bad behaviour. What a bad boy I was. Just 　12　 that he was wearing that torn vest in his office the whole day made me feel bad. At the same time, my father’s 　13　 taught me a lesson which I will never 　14　.  

　　On that day, I decided not to let anger control me any longer. 　15　, there are times when I get angry. However, whenever　that　happens, I　will　try　to remember my father’s vest.
