As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was the strange 36 things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that 37 me so much. There was never total 38 , but a streetlight or passing car lights 39 clothes hung over a chair take on the 40 of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my 41 , I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no 42 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My 43 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would 44 very still so that the "enemy" would not discover me. zxxk
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 45 on the way home from school. Every morning I get on the school bus right near my home--that was no 46 . After school, 47 , when all the buses were 48 up along the street, I was afraid that I'd get on the wrong one, and be taken to some 49 neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or museum, I wouldn't 50 the leaders out of my sight.
Perhaps one of the worst fears 51 all I had as a child was that of not being liked or 52 by others. Being popular was so important to me 53 , and the fear of not being liked was a 54 one.
One of the processes of growing up is being able to 55 and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that frightened us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had “seven fathers,” because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she retreated(躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.
In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the university’s Writers’ Workshop, however, she felt lonely----a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “Creative voice.”
“It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn’t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That’s when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn’t write about.”
Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street, when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children’s book, and a short-story collection.
1.Which of the following is TRUE about Cisneros in her childhood?
A．She had seven brothers. B．She felt herself a nobody.
C．She was too shy to go to school. D．She did not have any good teachers.
2.The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance to _____.
A．work for a school magazine B．run away from her family
C．make a lot of friends D．develop her writing style
3.According to Cisneros, what played the decisive role in her success?
A．Her early years in college. B．Her training in the Workshop.
C．Her feeling of being different. D．Her childhood experience.
4.What do we learn about The House on Mango Street?
A．It is quite popular among students.
B．It is the only book ever written by Cisneros.
C．It wasn’t success as it was written in Spanish.
D．It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.

I was painfully shy as a child. In high school I would avoid participating in class discussions. I was too afraid to talk to anyone but my closest friends~ I would think about being less shy, wanting the courage not only to ask a girl out, but to speak up in class and say what I was thinking. Yet, it never happened. Fears showed themselves in such self-conscious questions as, " What will other people think? What if she says no?" I felt a dark presence in my mind holding me back.
This shyness continued into college. One day, the question occurred to me: Is life shy?
The thought surprised me ! Think of the leaves bursting out in the spring time, the bird singing at dawn, the sheer number of different forms of life, all expressing the wideness and scope of divine life. There's nothing shy about it. Life is everywhere and attention-grabbing (引人注意的). So, if my creator isn't shy about all the life that needs expressing, I don't need to be either.
I realized that if I wanted to overcome fear and shyness, I would have to put this law of life into practice~ Shyness, fear, and loneliness were hindering me from living my life as life: God wanted me to live it. Therefore, I decided to live how life saw me.
One example: I wrote a note to a girl, asking her out on a date. Even as I was writing it, the fears of disaffirmation and unworthiness came to me. This time however, instead of shrinking back and hiding from the fear, I put the note in the campus mail in spite of myself. I thought: whether she says yes or no, it's still right for me not to be shy. I can live with the confidence sent from the source of my life. The girl saw me in class the next day and told me that she would love to go out with me. I should not have been so surprised!
Bit by bit, I was proving that the limited view of myself no longer had control over me. After college, I worked as a newspaper reporter, earned an advanced degree in theater, became a productive writer (a lifelong dream), met a special woman whom I married, and even got a job teaching at a university.
1.The writer was shy as a child because of______.
A．a(chǎn)wareness that life is shy
B．lack of courage to speak out in public
C．fear of others' attitude and reaction
D．failure in his participation in class discussion
2."The law" in Paragraph 4 refers to the fact that______.
A．life is attention-grabbing and divine
B．God treats everything and everyone fairly
C．everything in nature is in the favour of God
D．the creator of life which needs expressing isn't shy
3.It can be learnt from Paragraph 5 that the writer______.
A．didn't hesitate before sending the note
B．wouldn't regret sending the note despite the result
C．was not surprised when the girl agreed to go out
D．believed in God and felt encouraged by the wideness of life
4.The underlined word "disaffirmation" in Paragraph 5 probably means______.
A．rejection B．laughter C．regret D．horror
5.The purpose of writing the text is to______.
A．blame those who are shy and unconfident
B．persuade people to have confidence in their career
C．share the personal experience with the readers
D．prove that the overcome of shyness helps achieve success

How to Teach a Child Respect
As a child grows out of being an infant（嬰兒）and begins to notice and react to the world around them, you may find yourself wondering how you possibly pass all of the things that they need to become a responsible, respectful adult. 1 A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others in kind, but learns to respect himself as well.
Instructions
★1 Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to respect others. Listen to your child by giving her your full attention and she will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in relationships.
★2 2 The more you say "please" and "thank you" to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
★3 Agree to disagree. 3 Explain your decision so that she will understand your reasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you aren’t equal to disobedience.
★4 Control your impulse to overreact. When a situation arises between you and your child that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior. 4
★5 Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough. 5
A．Teach manners by using polite requests and responses.
B．Try to remember that a child won’t always agree with you.
C．Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.
D．If he sees you lose your temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.
E．A child may act like he pleases, but will respect being given limits.
F．When you see you child exhibit respectful behavior, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.
G．Signs such as sudden poor performance in school, behaviors like fears and threats accompany behavior problems in children.

People fell in love with Elizabeth Taylor in 1944, when she starred in National Velvet-the story of Velvet Brown, a young girl who wins first place in a famous horse race, At first, the producers of the movie told Taylor that she was too small to play the part of Velvet. However, they waited for her for a few months as she exercised and trained—and added three inches to her height in four months! Her acting in National Velvet is still considered the best by a child actress.
Elizabeth Taylor was born in London in 1932. Her parents, both Americans, had moved there for business reasons. When World War II started, the Taylors moved to Beverly Hills, California, and there Elizabeth started acting in movies. After her success as a child star, Taylor had no trouble moving into adult(成人)roles and won twice for Best Actress: Butterfield 8(1960) and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf ? (1966)
Taylor’s fame(名聲)and popularity gave her a lot of power with the movie industry, so she was able to demand very high pay for her movies. In 1963, she received $1 million for her part in Cleopatra—the highest pay received by any star up to that time.
Elizabeth Taylor is a legend (傳奇人物) of our time. Like Velvet Brown in National Velvet, she has been lucky, she has beauty, fame and wealth. But she is also a hard worker. Taylor seldom acts in movies any more. Instead, she puts her time and efforts into her businesses, and into helping others — several years ago, she founded an organization that has raised more than $40 million for research and education.

A. was small in size B. was too young
