3."Mummy,I don't know what to play with."Steve interrupts his mother,who is talking to a friend,for the fourth time."You've got a room full of toys!"his mother says,impatiently.In fact it is the jumble of toys which is to blame for four-year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls,cars and stuffed (packed) animals.Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor,listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother's desk or following her into the kitchen saying:"Mummy,I am bored."
A family therapist (心理醫(yī)生) explains why children lose interest when they have a whole"toy shop"at home:"According to their brain development,little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once.There is always just one favorite toy for the moment.All the rest is left lying about."What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys?Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child's knowledge.If he/she takes no more notice of a toy,a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away.Be warned though the child will always say he/she wants it then!A talk with relatives and friends may also help.Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie,and we like her way.A small set of shelves in her child's room holds the toys and books that are the current (at present) favorites.When it seems to her that her daughter is tired of these toys,they put them away in a box together and select some other toys from a cupboard in another room.The box of"old"toys goes into the cupboard.When her child says she is"bored",they also get something from her cupboard-it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn't seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.
Some favorite toys stay out all the time,and there is collection of dolls which sits in the corner,but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something"fresh"to play with.

34.D 第二段中心理醫(yī)生所說的話"There is always just one favorite toy for the moment.All  the rest is left lying about",強(qiáng)調(diào)了孩子們不會(huì)一次同時(shí)喜歡很多玩具.   
35.C第二段中間明確提示:"What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys?Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child's knowledge"建議:把玩具藏起來.

14.There are two dangers to be guarded against in old age.One of these is undue(過度的) absorption in the past.There is no need to live in memories,in regrets for the good old days,or in sadness about friends who are dead.One's thoughts must be directed to the future,and to things about which there is something to be done.
It is unwise to be too attached to the youth in hopes of sucking vigor from their vitality (活力).When your children have grown up,they want to live their own lives,and if you continue to be as interested in them as you were when they were young.you are likely to become a burden to them,unless they are cold to you.
I think a successful old age is easier for those who have strong impersonal interests involving proper activities.It is no use telling children not to make mistakes,both because they will not believe you,and because mistakes are an essential part of education.But if you are one of those who are incapable of impersonal interests,and you only concern yourself with your children and.grandchildren,then you must realize that while you can still render them material services,such as making them an allowance,you must not expect that they will enjoy your company.
Some old people are afraid of death.But in fact the best way is to make your interests gradually wider and more impersonal.An individual human existence should be like a river-small at first,rushing passionately past rocks and over waterfalls.Gradually the river grows wider and the banks move back and in the end they become merged(混和)in the sea without any visible break.
The old man who can see life in this way will not suffer from the fear of growing old and death.

51.One of the dangers to be guarded against in old age isA  
A.the fear of getting old
C.to depend on themselves
B.to be lost in old memories
D.to be too impersonal
52.The author suggests that old people shouldA
A.develop impersonal interests with proper activities
B.tell their children not to make mistakes
C.concern themselves with their children
D.not give their children an allowance
53.The underlined word"render"in Paragraph 3 probably means"C".
A.give  
B.reward  
C.return   
D.demand
54.The author compares an individual human existence to a river becauseC
A.1ife is like a river,first small,and then it becomes wide
B.1ife is like a river finally flowing into the sea and disappearing
C.old age and death are both natural,just like a river
D.people get old and finally die naturally like a river
55.What's the main topic of this passage?B
A.Never be afraid of death.
B.How to grow old successfully.
C.Never be afraid of getting old.
D.Getting old is natural.
