My 8-year-old son, Kevin, has made friends with some boys in the neighborhood. He has been      with them after school. My wife,Qugen, and I are       he has other kids to be with and we have      and encouraged him to play with his friends. We also want Kevin to learn    _,so we have asked him to tell us       he's going and to come home at a specified time.
The      started when Kevin didn't come home on time. On one occasion,I asked Kevin to be back at 6 pm. By 6:30,I needed to go       him. I found him at a friend's house,and he looked       that he couldn't continue playing. After we came home,I sat Kevin down for a talk about the       of keeping his word. I told him I was not worried about him arriving a few       late,but after half an hour,I’m going to be    . He told me he understood.
The next day,I came home from work at about 6:30 p.m. and Qugen asked me to go and get Kevin        she said he should be back home at 6. I walked to his friend's house and a look of     appeared on Kevin's face when he came to the door.
At     ,Qugen and I spoke to Kevin about why he didn't come home on time again. He said he just wanted to       playing. This was      ,so Qugen and I decided to ground(罰不準出門)him for a week. This      no playing with his friends.
For the next week,whenever his friends came to ask for Kevin,we let him       to them that he was grounded. We felt this would help him be responsible for his      .
As a      ,I believe one of the most important things we can teach our kids is self-responsibility and that actions have consequences.

【小題5】C 連詞辨析。A何時;B為什么;C何地;D無論何時;我們想要他學(xué)會有責(zé)任心,所以我們要求他告訴我們?nèi)チ四抢,并要求他在一個特定的時間回來。

It has been argued by some that gifted children should be grouped in special classes. The     __  __ has been on the belief that in regular classes these children are held back in their intellectual (智力的) growth by learning situation that has designed for the         children.
There can be little doubt that         classes can help the gifted children to graduate earlier and take their place in life sooner. However, to take these         out of the regular classes may create serious problems.
Many are concerned that gifted children become         and lose interest in learning. However this concern is more often from parents and teachers than from students, and some of these         simply conclude that special classes should be set up for those who are talented. Some top students do feel bored in class, but why they         so goes far beyond the work they have in school. Studies have shown that to be bored is to be anxious. The gifted child who is bored is an         child.

Kids have their own ideas about money---some are sensible and others are not so wise.
Twelve-year-old Amanda thinks it’s        to save and not blow your money right away  “ so you can         other things”.
When it comes to credit cards, eight-year-old Jeremie says when the monthly        comes in “ you sign it and then you give it back” ---leaving out the part about actually        it.
These kids are        far away from the working world, but the ideas they’re forming about        could affect how much they save, how they use credit cards and how much debt they finally take on in later life.
High school business teacher Jeff Balch said his students had        knowledge about money other than spending. “ They don’t know most things because        talks to them about them---as in their parents,” said Balch, “The discussions tend to be in terms of kids        too much money, but no one tells them why, where their money goes.
Mitch Murphy said students’ message to the task force was to “ make it       ”. “ It may be difficult to have a 14-or 15-year-old student get too        about retirement planning, ” Murphy said, “ But if you want to talk about a cellphone contract or a debt card,they will be engaged in.” Murphy said learning financial literacy (能力)     ,  well        getting into the work force, should stay with Canadians for life and        the country as a result.
Sandra Martin said children can start learning about money when they learn to       . “ Sit down with the flyers and look at how much things cost,” Martin said. Babysitting and birthday money could be        and there would be a(n)        as to how much could be debited(借) every month, she said.
“ The reality is that we’re not spending with cash anymore. If you’re always in         of your child’s money, then they’re never going to learn what it means to save for something that’s      .”
Balch said he tries to make his students realize the differences between needs, wants and priorities(優(yōu)先權(quán)). If they haven’t learned self-control and if they haven’t learned how to        money, they can easily spiral(螺旋上升) out of control.

       positive through the cold season could be your best         against getting ill, new study findings suggest.
In an experiment that         healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus, researchers found that people with a         sunny characteristic were less likely to         ill. The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a “positive emotional style” can help         the common cold and other illnesses.
Researchers believe the reasons may be both objective as in happiness increasing immune(免疫的) function and subjective as in happy people being less         by a scratchy throat or runny nose. “People with a positive emotional style may have different immune         to the virus,” explained the lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. “And when they do get a cold, they may         their illness as being less severe.”
Cohen and his colleagues had found in a         study that happier people seemed less likely to catch a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional tendency itself had the effect.
For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults with complete standard measures of personality tendency, health-consciousness and emotional “style”. Those who         be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style,         those who were often unhappy, tense and unfriendly had a negative style. The researchers gave them drops through their noses         either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the         reported on any aches, pains, sneezing they had, while the researchers collected         data, like daily mucus(黏液) production. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes(鼻部的不適), happy people were less likely to develop a cold.

“Show them the money!” That’s what some people are saying for college athletes. They say students who play sports for their school should receive salaries.
Top athletes should be paid because many of them practice full time, Mark Jameson argues. Rico Cannon, a former college football player, agrees. “Nonathletes can get a job for extra spending money, but many student athletes spend so many hours in training that they don’t have time to work,” he explains. “Shouldn’t athletes be able to earn extra money too?”
The students also make money for their schools when people buy tickets to their games. The players should receive some of that cash, supporter Robbie Pokora reasons.
College athletes are about honor and tradition, but they’re also a business. Thanks to ticket sales, there’s money for schools to build new athletic stadiums and give the coaches high salaries. The cash should be shared with athletes. They’re the ones out on the field or court working hard for their school.
The money matter has others crying foul, though. Kaitlyn Rentala argues that colleges should not pay their athletes. Students are in school to get an education. Playing a sport is an extracurricular(課外的)activity, not a job. If athletes need extra money, they can apply for college scholarships(獎學(xué)金). Michael Massett is a middle school teacher and a football and a basketball coach. He agrees. “Athletes should be paid with scholarships, like nonathletes are,” Massett explains.
In addition, if colleges pay their athletes, those students might focus more on sports than on their education. “Most students do not become professional athletes after college. If they focus too much on sports, they may not learn the skills they need to get good jobs,” Kate Macrae reasons. Plus, she says, many athletes have schoolships that help them pay for school.

B.Training leaves them no time to work and they should be paid.
C.Playing a sport at school is not a job and they shouldn’t be paid.
D.They can apply for scholarships and should not be paid.

A.Kaitlyn RentalaB.Robbie Pokora
