第3题

Summer is almost here, which means it is time to sign(报名) your children up for swim cl
asses again at the Community Pool. Classes begin on Monday, May 1, and will continue throughout the summer. Fifteen swim classes are being offered. Each class lasts ten hours. A new class starts each week of the summer. Each class costs $20. The pool is big enough for six students per class.

Classes will increase in difficulty each week. The first week is for children up to six years old. The last week is for advanced swimmers who want to improve their race and endurance skills.

Students can sign up for as many classes as they like, but they must pass the skills level test. For example, students who sign up for Level 4 (Stroke Readiness) must show their certificate(证书) for completing Level 3 or must demonstrate the front crawl and backstroke. Children cannot sign up for a level they are not ready for. Children who have never attended Community Pool classes must show up April 29 or 30 for a swim skills evaluation(评估). Instructors will rate the students and assign them to a particular skill level.

Swim classes are fun for all. Children learn new skills and make new friends. Parents get to meet other parents in the community. Swimming, like bicycling, is a healthy and valuable skill that, once learned, is never forgotten.

“It's a joy to teach young children,” said Ginger, the lead instructor for swimming programs. “More than half of them are terrified when we put them into the water the first time. Two months later, they're begging their parents to go to the pool every day.”

Passage Four Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. If you want to teach

Passage Four

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.

If you say to your children “I’m sorry I got angry with you, but …” what follows that “but” can render the apology ineffective: ” I had a bad day” or “your noise was giving me a headache ” leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior. in expecting an apology.

Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say “I’m sorry you’re upset” ; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.

Then there is the general, all covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that was particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying “I’m useless as a parent” does not commit a person to any specific improvement.

These pseudo-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness, Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies.

But even when presented with examples of genuine contrition, children still need help to become a ware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology. A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children’s expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that raiding the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent’s clothes without permission is not.

36.If a mother adds ”but” to an apology,________.

A.she doesn’t feel that she should have apologized

B.she does not realize that the child has been hurt

C.the child may find the apology easier to accept

D.the child may feel that he owes her an apology

Television has opened windows to everybody. Young men will never again go to war as they d
id in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.

Television has also changed politics. The most remote can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, he is more likely to vote, and so to make his opinion count.

Unfortunately, television's influence has been greatly harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe and want to practise what they see. They do believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the "television generations" are more violent than their parents and grandparents.

Also, the young are more impatient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures, to read a book that requires thinking, to listen to a teacher who doesn't do funny things like the people on children's pro- grams. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That's the time it takes on the screen.

At present, many young people ______.

A.know the effects of war

B.go in for politics

C.are willing to be soldiers

D.like to save the wounded in wars

Penguins live together in large and busy colonies. Every pair has a little piece of ground
. When a penguin wants to walk through his neighbor's ground he must ask for permission. If he does not, he will have to fight.

Penguins come and go all day. They fight, fish and look after their children. (33) All penguins are good parents--the emperor penguins are perhaps the best parents in the world. They walk in from the sea in the middle of the dark Antarctic winter. They choose their wives in the dark. They can only hear them--not see them. Then the females lay their eggs and go away for two months. The males look after the eggs. They hold them on their feet inside a fold of skin. If the eggs get cold there will be no chicks. There is no food. The snow falls. The wind blows-sometimes at 150 kilometers an hour. The penguins do not move. When the females return from the sea they will not remember their husbands. It does not matter. Only one thing matters-the eggs. Emperor penguins never fight-unless a penguin leaves a chick for a minute. Then they fight because they all want it. They are strange and wonderful birds.

Each pair of penguins lives together with______.

A.their parents

B.some good children

C.many other penguins

D.their chicks

听力原文: We may think that an amusement park is designed and set up only for children and teenagers. As far as I can tell, adults can also find the delight in visiting and on most occasions are eager to enjoy the amusement park. Adults visit an amusement park for several reasons. For one thing, an amusement park is a place where it is acceptable to pig out on junk food. At the park, everyone including the adults is drinking Soda and eating popcorn, ice-cream and hotdogs, Nobody seems to be on a diet. So buying all the junk food you can eat in an amusement park is guilt free experience. Another reason why people visit an amusement park is to prove themselves. They want to visit the park that has the newest, scariest and most frightening ride in order to say they went on the parachute drop, the seven story elevator, the water shoot, or the guest slide. They think that going on a scary and frightening ride is a way to feel courageous and adventurous without taking too much of risk. A final reason that people visit an amusement park is to escape from their everyday pressures. When people are placed at the top of the gigantic roller coaster, they are not thinking of their bills of work or personal problems. A scary and frightening ride from a high place can empty an adult's mind of all worries except making it to the bottom: safe and sound. Adults at an amusement park may claim that they have come for their children. But they are there for themselves as well.

(35)

A.They are built only for children or teenagers.

B.They provide scary and frightening experiences.

C.They never allow adults to participate.

D.They seldom help adults to reduce weight.

Should A Kid Be Guided to Tell a White Lie?It's my family's tradition to exchange girls on

Should A Kid Be Guided to Tell a White Lie?

It's my family's tradition to exchange girls on Christmas Eve. Before we did so, I whispered to my uncle and his wife, "Just want you to know: I think what I got you is really cool, so just tell me you like it, no matter what, okay?"

I know that sounds rude, but there's another Christmas custom in my family: we give each other weird gifts.

There is a sweet reason for this. My grandparents grew up during the Depression, and there were years when they had no gifts at all. So my grandmother and her siblings(兄弟姐妹) would gift-wrap their old socks and clothes, just so they had something to open on Christmas. Pretend presents were better than none at all.

My grandmother never really got over those early years, so, for the rest of her life, she went a little crazy at the holidays. She'd start buying gifts in October. It didn't matter what it was. Socks, toothbrushes, used paperbacks she'd read but didn't like, all went under the tree. Contents of catalog "mystery boxes" meant we spent another hour unwrapping presents. One of my more memorable gifts: a single piece of clear plastic labeled "face shield." I was apparently to hold it in front of my eyes when I used hair spray.

We all thanked Grandma greatly no matter what we got. As a little kid, this pattern of gratitude for the terrible presents puzzled me; it took a long time for me to understand it was all right to laugh at some of her gifts. Now I don't really know if my aunt and uncle actually liked the gift I gave them. They said they did, but since I coached them to tell me they love it, I'll never really know if that was the truth.

All of these make me think of the work of McGill professor Victoria Talwar. As an expert in children's lying behavior, Talwar has been studying how kids respond to unwanted gifts. When they get a gift they hate, can they still thank someone and pretend to love it?

Talwar tests kids' ability to do this, by asking kids to pick a toy they want; if they win a game, they get the chosen toy. There are plastic horses, a small car, a few other items, including an unwrapped, dirty, worn, used bar of soap. At some point in the game, there's a switch in the adults who play with the kids. So, instead of giving the child her chosen toy, the late-arriving adult gives the child the soap.

Then, the researchers watch what happens. 68% of kids, aged 3 to 11, will spontaneously say they love the gift of old ugly soap. The older they are, the more likely they are to say a white lie about the gift. And if parents encourage the children to say how much they like the present, the percentage of kids lying about the gift increases to 87%.

At this point, some may be saying that a white lie isn't a lie. That's because you are looking at lying from the adult perspective--that lies are acceptable, when told with the intent of helping someone, or protecting another's feelings. But kids don't think of lying in the same way. For them, the intent behind a lie--for good or for ill--is irrelevant. It is so irrelevant that, for very young kids, you can't even lie by accident. Someone who gives out wrong information, but believed it to be true, is still a liar in these kids' book.

Kids just don't believe that lying comes in shades of white or gray. Lying is much simpler than that: lying is telling somebody something that isn't so; lying is really bad; and lying gets you punished. And if it gets you punished, you shouldn't do it. In Talwar's lab, parents have literally cheered to hear their kids lie about how great it is to have received the old soap. The parents have pride over their children's knowing the socially appropriate response.

Talwar's regularly amazed by this. The parents never even seem to realize that the child told a lie. They never want to scold the child afterwards,

A.They earned money to buy gifts for each other.

B.They made pretend presents with old things.

C.They started buying gifts in October.

D.They gave each other weird gifts.
