I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare (兔子) and the tortoise (烏龜). At the end I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady (鎮(zhèn)定的), and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (堅忍不拔), by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.

Mrs Bennet, Pride and Prejudice
Jane Austen described Mrs Bennet as “a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper(脾氣)”: she topped your list of the least favorite female family heads. With her single-minded devotion to marrying off her daughters, she is one of literature’s parents involving themselves in their sons’ or daughters’ private lives. And at least she pays attention to her daughters. Whatever one might lay at her daughters’ door, she defends them.
Helen Graham, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
The second and final novel by Anne Bront was so shocking that after Anne’s death, her sister Charlotte prevented its re-publication. Published for the first time in 1848, it told the story of a woman who escapes her alcoholic husband to protect her young son. In fleeing her husband, Helen was not just challenging social structures, she was breaking the law: at the time, a married woman had no independent legal existence, and by taking her child with her she was likely to be punished for kidnapping(誘拐). Helen’s actions didn’t just establish her as a good mother; they helped to cause a movement.
Marilla Cuthbert, Anne of Green Gables
The adoptive mother of orphan Anne makes herself known as a softy through the course of the 1908 novel: so much so that Margaret Attwood has claimed that Marilla is the true central character: “Her growing love for Anne, and her growing ability to express that love – not Anne’s duckling-to-swan act – is the real magic transformation. Anne is the catalyst(催化劑) who allows the strict Marilla to finally express her long-buried softer human emotions.”
Mrs Waterbury, The Railway Children
The Railway Children’s female family head is “a very real mother, strong but also easily hurt.” Presenting an idealized(理想化) vision of childhood, yet the novel contains a tension between appearance and reality – which some have said reflects its author E Nesbit’s personal life. Her husband had an ongoing affair with her best friend, who bore him two children that Nesbit raised as her own. Jenny Agutter has said: “Nesbit’s life was always unstable. What saved her was her belief that things would work out in the end … Against the background of her own tense and complex family life, she wrote stories about families that were joined perfectly together.”
1.The passage mainly discusses _____________ in literature.
A. families
B. mothers
C. emotional life
D. parent-child communication
2.Which of the following is TRUE about the four characters in the novels mentioned in the passage?
A. Mrs Bennet is a most controlling person.
B. Helen Graham is a person to give up easily.
C. Marilla Cuthbert is hard to get along with .
D. Mrs Waterbury is poor at holding together a family
3.According to the writers mentioned in the passage, we can infer that ____________________.
A. Jane Austen was good at writing detective stories
B. Anne Bront wrote three novels altogether all her life
C. E Nesbit was looking forward to having one harmonious family
D. Margaret Attwood was very popular with readers of the early 20th century
4.Which of the following can we recommend if anyone wants to read a novel about the sweetest expression of family love.
A. Pride and Prejudice.
B. The Railway Children.
C. Anne of Green Gables.
D. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall.

Toy Fair is the largest toy trade show in the Western Hemisphere (西半球). Toy-store buyers go to the event to decide which toys they may want to sell during the holiday season. Members of the media, like TFK, go to the fair to report back on all the cool trends. Unfortunately, Toy Fair is not open to the public.
This year’s Toy Fair was the biggest in its 111-year history. More than 1,000 toy companies showed products from simple card games to high-tech robots. “Larger Than Life” was a Toy Fair favorite. This trend is all about big toys with a big play value.

This trend includes word games. And of course, we saw some super cool, high-tech games. “Technology is always going to influence toys,” says Appell. “This year we saw lots of 3D games, and robots.”

A survey said the average Asian dad spent one minute a day with his children.I was shocked. I mean, a whole minute? Every day? Get real. Once a week maybe. The fact is, many Asian males are terrible at kid—related things. In fact, I am one of them.
Child—rearing (養(yǎng)育) doesn’t come naturally to guys. My mother knew the names of our teachers, best friends and crushes. My dad was only vaguely aware there were short people sharing the apartment. My mother bought healthy fresh food at the market every day. My dad would only go shopping when there was nothing in the fridge except a jar of capers and a bay leaf.Then he’ d buy beer. My mother always knew the right questions to ask our teachers. My dad would ask my English teacher if she could get us a discount on school fees.My mother served kid food to kids. My dad added chili sauce to everything, including our baby food.
The truth is, mothers have superpowers. My son fell off a wall once and hurt himself all over. I demanded someone bring me a computer so I could google what to do. My wife ignored me and did some sort of chanting phrase such as “Mummy kiss it better,” and cured l7 separate injuries in less than 15 seconds.
Yes, mothers are incredible people, but they are not always right. Yet honesty forces me to record the fact that mothers only know best 99.99 percent of the time.Here are some famous slip-ups.
The mother of Bill Gates: “ If you’ re going to drop out of college and hang out with your nerdy friends, don’ t come running to me when you find yourself penniless.” The mother of Albert Einstein: “When you grow up, you’ ll find that sitting around thinking about the nature of time and space won’ t pay the grocery bills.” The mother of George W.Bush: “You’ll never be like your dad, who became President of the United States and started his own war.”

You have to decide what it is you want the most. But do not make a list of wishes. 1. . If you’re not sure about where you want to go, you’d better think it over first and not hurry to perform.
2. .This will be your map for getting from ''where you are now'' to ''where you want to go''. You know what you want, and what steps you are going to take to get it. For example, if you want a better job, start with a skill assessment and maybe some extra training. You’ll need to sell yourself and your skills to your new employer.
Other goals will require a bit more thought. Some will really get you lost and you don't know how to get there. 3. . For reading is a valuable source of inspirations.
The final step is to carry it out. 4. .Take the steps you outlined on your road map and keep going on all the time. If you run into some people who are against you, simply ignore them.
