She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(資格證書(shū))if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school.

【題目】Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.

The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We couldn’t see his face and he was approaching us very rapidly. The man’s actions made my dad very nervous. Dad warned us that we’d better try to make it to our hotel room as quickly as possible. I didn’t like my dad’s voice; I could hear fear in it. It was late and we were all alone. We didn’t have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong. The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me. We had had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.

We could hear the man’s footsteps getting closer. Dad’s face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending (自動(dòng)販賣(mài)) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all. Not a soul.

It’s one vacation I will never forget.

Rules on how to be a fit kid

Being fit is a way of saying a person; a person eats well, gets a lot of physical exercise, and has a healthy weight. 1 . If you're a kid who wants to be fit, here are three rules to live by.

(1) Eat a variety of foods.

You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety. 2 . Taste new foods and old ones you haven’t tried for a while. Some foods, such as green vegetables, are more pleasing the older you get. Shoot for at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day—two fruits and three vegetables.

(2) 3

What does it feel like to be full? When you’re eating, notice how your body feels and when your stomach feels comfortably full. Sometimes, people eat too much because they don’t notice when they need to stop eating. 4. And over a period of time, overeating can lead to unhealthy weight gain.

(3)Limit screen time

What’s screen time? It’s the amount of time you spend watching TV or DVD5, playing video games, and using the computer. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the less time available for active stuff, like basketball, bike ridin g and swimming. 5

These rules aren’t magic. However, follow them most of the time and you can become a fit kid sooner or later.

A. Drink water and milk.

B. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen time.

C. Eating too much can make you feel uncomfortable.

D. If you eat different foods, you’re more likely to get the nutrients your body needs.

E. Listen to your body.

F. Ask your parents to help you do your favorite activities regularly.

G. There’re a lot of discussions these days about fit kids.

They Just Can't Help It

My theory is that the female brain is mainly built for empathy the ability to understand other people and that the male brain is mainly built for building systems. __【1】_ For example, women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting, while men will choose magazines that feature computers and sport.

You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave when they are growing up. However, this is not the case. A new study carried out at Cambridge University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face, and newborn boys look longer at a mobile. __【2】_ It has also been observed (that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other people's feelings. Boys, however, seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys which have clear functions. __【3】_ People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male. Math and engineering, which require high levels of systems-thinking, are also male-chosen disciplines. Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain neurons (神經(jīng)) that connect the right and left part of their brains. Because of it, women have a better ability to multitask than men. __【4】_ Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time. They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another.

Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender (性別) is better than the other, but this is not the case. My theory says that males and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy, but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. __【5】_ It is not true. The study simply looks at males and females as two groups, and asks what differences exist, and why they are there.

A. Generally speaking, there are clear differences.

B. Their preference for building systems may change over time.

C. You can see the same kind of pattern in the adult workplace.

D. They will consider many sources of information at the same time.

E. It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy.

F. That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological.

G. Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like.
