Tail Spin
Two dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park. The smaller dolphin, Grace, shows off a few of her tricks, turning around and waving hello to the crowd. The most amazing thing about her, however, is that she's even swimming at all. She doesn't have a tail.
Grace lost her tail as a baby when she got caught up in a fish trap. When the dolphin arrived at the Ocean Park in December 2005, she was fighting for her life. “ Is she going to make it?” Her trainer, Abbey Stone, feared the worst. Grace did make it—but her tail didn't. She ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her peduncle.
Over the past six years, she has learned to swim without her tail. Dolphins swim by moving their flukes and peduncle up and down. Grace taught herself to move another way—like a fish! She pushes herself forward through the water by moving her peduncle from side to side.
The movements put harmful pressure on Grace's backbone. So a company offered to create a man?made tail for her. The tail had to be strong enough to stay on Grace as she swam but soft enough that it wouldn't hurt her.
The first time Grace wore the artificial tail, she soon shook it off and let it sink to the bottom of the pool. Now, she is still learning to use the tail. Some days she wears it for an hour at a time, others not at all. “The new tail isn't necessary for her to feel comfortable,” says Stone, “but it helps to keep that range of motion (動作) and build muscles (肌肉).”
Now, the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending. This month, Grace will star in Dolphin Tale, a film that focuses on her rescue and recovery. Her progress has inspired more than just a new movie. Many people travel from near and far to meet her. Seeing Grace swim with her man?made tail gives people so much courage.
1.When Grace first arrived at the Ocean Park, her trainer worried about her ________.
A.physical build
B.potential ability
C.chance of survival
D.a(chǎn)daptation to the surroundings
2.A man?made tail is created for Grace to ________.
A.let her recover faster

C.a(chǎn)djust her way of swimming
D.help her perform better tricks
3.The story of Grace inspires people to ________.

A. Help your children get organized B. Help your children set a schedule C. Give children the responsibility for their own homework D. Provide your children with a study area E. Praise your children for working hard F. Offer your children information if necessary |
Once children reach the grades where homework and tests are part of the curriculum, there are many things parents can do to encourage good study habits.
1. _____________
Parents should decide with their children what time each day homework is to be done. While children are in the lower grades, one hour a day will probably enough. As homework and responsibilities increase, more time will be needed. It is important that children take part in these decisions. Children need to know that they are able to make decisions about their studying. Once children and parents have decided on a schedule, they should stick to it. If there is no home work to be done on a given day, parents can have their children use this time as quiet time to read or work on long term projects. It’s important for children to get used to studying every day.
2. ______________
Parents should offer their children a quiet, comfortable place to study in. It’s a good idea that studying is done in the same place every day. Parents should make sure their children have the supplies they need (for example, paper, pencils, a pencil sharpener). Sometimes children’s bedrooms are not the best place to study in. There are often lots of distractions in children’s rooms.
3.______________
Parents should give their children a calendar on which to record assignments and to check them off when they are completed. Parents can also show their children how to keep their work and materials organized and how to prioritize assignments.
4.______________
Parents should be available to answer any questions that might come up. They should try to provide information without actually doing the homework for their children.
5._______________
Parents cannot force their children to study. Nagging (嘮叨) and threatening don’t work. Children need to know that they are responsible for doing their homework and for studying. Parents should give their children the responsibility, and let them suffer the consequences if they, for example, fail to turn in an assignment. The parents’ role is to provide support.
Remember, children must learn that they are responsible or their own learning. Parents can make the difference by giving their children the tools to do so.
