In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition she won last year.
　　As a writer I know about winning contests, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.
　　A revelation (啟示) came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”
　　I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自發(fā)地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.
　　Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting (借用) my daughter’s experience.
　　While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.
【小題1】What did the author say about her own writing experience?

A．She was constantly under pressure of writing more.
B．Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers.
C．Her way to success was full of pains and frustrations.
D．She did not quite live up to her reputation as a writer.
【小題2】Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?
A．She wanted to share her stories with readers.
B．She had won a prize in the previous contest.
C．She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.
D．She believed she possessed real talent for writing.
【小題3】The author took great pains to refine her daughter’s stories because ________.
A．she wanted to help Rebecca realize her dream of becoming a writer
B．she believed she had the knowledge and experience to offer guidance
C．she did not want to disappoint Rebecca who needed her help so much
D．she was afraid Rebecca’s imagination might run wild while writing
【小題4】What’s the author’s advice for parents?
A．Children should be given every chance to voice their opinions.
B．Children should be allowed freedom to grow through experience.
C．Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.
D．A writing career, though attractive, is not for every child to pursue.

Teachers and parents usually call attention to the pictures when they read storybooks to pre-school children. But a new study suggests that calling attention to the words and letters on the page may lead to better readers.
The two-year study compared children who were read in this way in class with children who were not. Those whose teachers most often discussed the print showed clearly higher skills in reading, spelling and understanding. These results were found one year and even two years later.
Shayne Piasta, an assistant professor of teaching and learning at Ohio State University, was an author of the study. She says most pre-school teachers would find this method manageable and would need only a small change in the way they teach. They already read story-books in class. The only difference would be increased attention to the printed text. “If you get children to pay attention to letters and words, it makes sense that they will do better at word recognition and spelling.” But she says research suggests that very few parents and teachers do this in a systematic way.
More than 300 children aged four and five were observed in classrooms. They came from poor families and were below average in their language skills. For thirty weeks, the children took part in a program called Project STAR--- Sit Together and Read. The project is based at Ohio State. It tests the short-term and long-term results of reading regularly to pre-school children in their classrooms.
There are different ways that adults can talk to children about print. They can point to a letter and discuss it, and even trace the shape with a finger. They can point out a word and discuss the meaning of the print or how the words tell the story. And they can talk about the organization of the print--- for instance, showing how words are written left to right in English.
【小題1】 What do we know about the ways pre-school children are usually taught?

A．More attention is paid to the pictures ,with words and letters being ignored.
B．Preference is given to the shape of letters and the organization of the print.
C．The focus of the teaching is on bringing them up to be good readers.
D．Equal attention is paid to the texts and the pictures.
【小題2】What does Shayne Piasta suggest pre-school teachers should do in class?
A．Teach children how to draw pictures to get an idea of what they mean.
B．Change the way they teach and pay more attention to words and letters.
C．Adopt different methods according to the students’ difference in reading skills.
D．Read storybooks to children rather than explain the meaning of the pictures.
【小題3】 Which of the following is TRUE about the study on language skills of pre-school children?
A．Many teachers want to change their way of teaching pre-school children.
B．Attention on the pictures has made the children uninterested in reading.
C．Project STAR aims to research into the results of reading books to pre-school children in the classroom.
D．Teachers are often prevented from taking different approaches to language teaching.
【小題4】Which section of a magazine does the passage probably come from?
A．Fashion.B．Economy .C．Entertainment.D．Education.

Rae and Bruce Hostetler not only work very hard,they also relax just as well. Numerous vacations help the couple to maintain their health and emotional well-being一and it’s no surprise to health care professionals.
“Rest, relaxation, and stress reduction are very important for people’s well-being and health. This can be accomplished through daily activities, such as exercise and meditation, but vacation is an important part of this as well,” said primary care physician Natasha Withers from One Medical Group in New York. Withers lists a decreased risk of heart disease and improved reaction time as some of the benefits from taking some time off. “We also know that the mind is very powerful and can help with healing, so a rested, relaxed mind is able to help the body heal better,” said Withers.
Psychologists confirm the value of vacations for the mind. “The impact that taking a vacation has on one’s mental health is great,” said Francine Lederer, a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles who specializes in stress and relationship management. “Most people have better life perspective and are more motivated to achieve their goals after a vacation, even if it is a 24- hour time-out.” The trips could be good for their health, good for their family and good for their businesses.
The online travel agency Expedia conducted a survey about vacation time in 2010, and according to their data the average American earned 18 vacation days一but only used 14 of them. France topped the list, with the average worker earning 37 vacation days and using all but two of them. Americans’ responses may not be surprising in a culture where long hours on the job often are valued, but that’s not always good for the individual, the family or the employer.
Psychologists have also found that people who don’t take enough time to relax may find it harder to relax in the future. “Without time and opportunity to do this, the nerve connections that produce feelings of calm and peacefulness become weaker, making it actually more difficult to shift into less-stressed states,” Mulhem said.
【小題1】How did the author introduce the topic of the text?

A．By making comparisons. B．By giving an example.
C．By raising questions. D．By providing data.
【小題2】Expedia’s survey shows that Americans _____.
A．dislike family gatherings
B．have the shortest vacation
C．enjoy as many vacations as the French
D．think much of spending long hours on the job
【小題3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．One should never wait to relax.
B．Work and rest go against each other.
C．Time and opportunity wait for no man.
D．A relaxed mind determines everything.

If you hear the sound of running water the next time you call a co-worker on his or her mobile phone, don’t be surprised. Three-fourths of Americans with mobile phones say they use them in the bathroom, a new study shows.
Approximately the same number of men and women have used the phone in the bathroom, according to a survey of 1,000 Americans by 11mark, an integrated marketing agency, although men seem more attached to IT in the toilet: 30 percent of men versus 20 percent of women agreed with the statement, "I don't go to the bathroom without my mobile phone."
More than half the surveyed users (63 percent) said they have answered a phone call in the bathroom, and almost half (41 percent) reported initiating a phone call. That's not all, however. What goes on behind the walls of the stalls is anything a mobile phone is capable of. Sixty-seven percent said they have read a text, and 39 percent have surfed the Web. Men work more from the bathroom — 20 percent said they have participated in work-related calls, versus 13 percent of their female colleagues.
As expected, Gen Y respondents are the pacesetters in the "mobile everywhere" movement, with 91 percent using their phone in the bathroom. Still, older generations are not far behind. Eighty percent of Gen X(1961-1981) reported using the phone in the bathroom, as did 65 percent of Baby Boomers and 47 percent of the Silent Generation.
While online, they are doing more than just surfing; 16 percent of Gen Y report they have made an online purchase while in the bathroom. Users of iPhones are particularly likely to browse and buy in the bathroom – 22 percent have made a purchase, versus 10 percent of Americans with mobile phones overall.
"The writing is on the stall," said 11mark principal Nicole Burdette. "This study confirms what we all know: that the last private place is no longer private."
In the process, high-tech hygiene(衛(wèi)生) is taking a hit, the survey found. While 92 percent of mobile phone users said they wash their hands after using the bathroom, only 14 percent said they wash their phones.
【小題1】59.Which is the best word to replace the underlined word "initiating"?

A．receivingB．experiencingC．endingD．beginning
【小題2】60.According to his words, Nicole Buedette mainly wants to tell us that       .
A．no wonder mobile phones are used in the bathroom
B．the bathroom is a private place for people
C．it makes people have no privacy at all
D．more men have used the phone in the bathroom
【小題3】61.What does the last paragraph of the passage imply?
A．Using phones in the bathroom has a bad effect on hygiene
B．Mobile phones should not be allowed to use in the bathroom
C．Most people care about the hygiene after using the bathroom
D．Few people wash their phones after using the bathroom
【小題4】62.The attitude of the author to the use of phones in the bathroom is ______
A．supportiveB．disapproval
C．subjective(主觀的)D．objective(客觀的)

Medicine comes in lots of different packages. Painkillers in a tablet can make your headache go away. Antibiotic cream (抗菌素膏) from a tube can prevent your cuts from becoming infected. But can medicine come packaged in chicken eggs?
A team of scientists from Scotland say “yes”. They’ve engineered special chickens that lay eggs with disease-treating drugs inside. 
These eggs come from chickens that have been engineered to produce certain drugs inside their egg whites.
These drugs are made of molecules called proteins(蛋白質(zhì)). Animals make thousands of proteins — they’re the main element in skin, hair, milk and meat. Since animals can make proteins easily, they’re good candidates (候選者) for making protein drugs.
Researchers have already made cows, sheep and goats produce protein drugs in their milk. But chickens are cheaper to take care of, need less room, and grow faster than these other animals. Those qualities could make chickens a better choice to become living drug factories, says Simon Lillico of the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh, Scotland.
Lillico and a team of researchers changed chickens’ DNA — the code that tells cells how to make proteins — so that the birds’ cells made two protein drugs. One drug can treat skin cancer, and the other treats a nerve disease called multiple sclerosis (多發(fā)性硬化).
The scientists changed the chickens’ DNA so that the birds made these drugs only in their egg whites. This protects the chickens’ bodies from the drugs’ possible harmful effects and makes it easy for scientists to collect the drugs.
【小題1】If you cut your finger, you may use ________ to cure it.

A．painkillers in a tabletB．a(chǎn)ntibiotic cream from a tube
C．chicken eggs D．protein drugs
【小題2】Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．Scientists from Scotland have succeeded in packing medicine into chicken eggs.
B．The drugs are made of molecules called proteins.
C．Scientists chose chickens for their experiments because chicken eggs taste delicious.
D．The animals are good candidates for making protein drugs.
【小題3】The drugs in special chicken eggs can ________.
A．treat lung cancer B．help reduce headache
C．change people’s DNA D．treat multiple sclerosis
【小題4】We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．eating eggs is the best choice for the patients now
B．scientists changed the chicken’s DNA and put all the drugs in chicken eggs
C．we may eat special eggs as drugs when we are sick in the future
D．the drugs produce harmful effects on the chicken’s bodies
【小題5】The best title for the passage is ________.
A．Chicken Eggs to Replace MedicineB．Chicken Eggs as Drug

Walt Disney is credited for creating such wonderful things as Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse. However, he cannot take the credit for creating other well-loved characters, such as Cinderella and Snow White. They are almost automatically associated with Disney because Disney turned old fables(寓言) into cartoon movies.
The original Cinderella varies very much from the Disney version we know today. It started off with the girl mourning her mother’s death and going to her tomb three times a day. In addition, there were only birds that helped Cinderella; there was no such thing as a fairy godmother or helpful mice, nor was there mention of a horse and carriage.
The stepsisters were cruel: they always threw Cinderella’s food into the ashes of the fire and made her sleep on the ashes on the floor, hence（因此）her name.
In the original story, the king’s ball actually lasted for three days. With the help of the birds, the girl, beautifully dressed, danced with the prince on all three nights and the prince fell in love with her. However, she broke away from him to rush back home each night. On the last night, the prince placed soothing sticky on the stairs; as Cinderella made her escape, a shoe got stuck on it.
Here now is where the story becomes unpleasant: when the prince went to the house looking for the girl whose foot fit the shoe, the wicked(邪惡的) stepmother told one of her two daughters to cut off her big toe to fit into the shoe. The daughter did as told. So the prince took her away to be his bride. But when they passed the tomb of Cinderella’s mother, the birds called out to the prince,
“Turn and peep, there’s blood in the shoe;
the shoe is too small, the true bride waits for you.” ZXXK
Realizing he had been tricked, the prince returned the daughter to her mother. The other then had to cut off part of her heel in order to fit into the shoe, with the same result. Only Cinderella’s foot fit perfectly and so the prince chose to marry her. The story ends with the wedding day: as Cinderella’s two stepsisters followed her, pretending to be devoted to her so that they could enjoy the king’s riches, two birds flew by and plucked(啄) out their eyes. Because of their wickedness and falsehood, they had to spend the rest of their days blind.
The original Cinderella is so different from the Disney version. Thank goodness Disney made such changes; it indeed was a wise move.
【小題1】What dose the underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refer to?

A．Such wonderful things.
B．Other well-loved characters.
C．Old fables.
D．Cartoon movies.
【小題2】How did Cinderella get her name?
A．The Birds came up with it.
B．It was given by Disney.
C．It came from the word “ash”.
D．She got it from her mother.
【小題3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the original story?
A．Helpful mice got Cinderella a beautiful dress.
B．The ball was held to celebrate the prince’s wedding.
C．Cinderella left her shoe on the stairs on purpose.
D．The birds told the prince that he had been cheated.
【小題4】The moral of the original story is that ____________.
A．a(chǎn) wicked person cannot escape punishment.
B．a(chǎn) devoted person certainly deserves respect.
C．a(chǎn) well-behaved child earns a great reward.
D．a(chǎn) dishonest child cannot get mother love.
【小題5】What does the author think of the Disney version?
A．Excellent.B．OrdinaryC．Dull.D．Ridiculous.
