D.Liz Payne.BA big challenge facing children who are seriously ill is keeping up with schoolwork. One moms high-tech solution: having kids being treated in hospital attend classes via robots
17、(the robots screen displays a live video to feed the childs need), allowing them to almost join in discussions, go on field trips, and generally feel connected.After Leslie Morissette lost her son, Graham, to cancer of the blood in 1997, she honored him by founding Grahamtastic Connection, a non-pro
18、fit organization that provides free electronic equipment for other sick kids. Since its foundation shes helped over 1,600 kids. “He was really into communication and keeping in touch, always asking the doctors and nurses for their e-mail addresses,” she says.Though Leslie was an art director for 12
19、years and ran Grahamtastic Connection on the side, she now puts her mind into her organization full-time. Offering sick children free technology whether its a robot, an iPad, a laptop, or Internet access helps first and best with education.“When a child is in hospital, parents want to do anything to
20、 allow him or her some normalcy (常态),” she says. “We connect kids to their normal world when its out of reach.” Some kids who have missed an entire school year can now go by robot and actually pass onto the next grade level without stepping foot inside the building. The equally important thing, thou
21、gh, is the social connection. “It stops the feeling of loneliness not just from the classroom, but from friends and family too,” she adds.24. What problem do children have to do with when in hospital?A. They may fall behind in learning. B. They have no friends to play with.C. They need more money fo
22、r treatment. D. They have no chance to go on field trips.25. For what purpose did Leslie Morissette found Grahamtastic Connection?A. To cure the sick kids. B. In memory of her son.C. To communicate with doctors. D. In search of the cause of blood disease.26. What is Leslie Morissettes job now?A. She
23、 works as an art director. B. She focuses on preschool education.C. She devotes herself to helping others. D. She helps look after patients in hospital.27. What is the main idea of the text?A.

24、 history of the development of children groups.D.

Theyve worked hard during the school year and this is their t
25、ime to relax, but they should continue communicating with their friends and meeting new people,” said Dr. Jin Han. Hes a professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.Spending time with friends and meeting new people by doing fun and educational activities such as music, arts and sports program
26、s in summer help with their development. “If children spend a lot of time alone on their electronic equipment, then they will fail to communicate with others,” Han said. “In todays world, its very easy for kids to stay indoors all day and keep in touch with others, but that is not a good way to conn
27、ect with others. Face-to-face communication is necessary and important. Parents should restrict the time their children spend on electronic equipment. For example, the time they spend on their phones cannot be more than one hour a day.”Its also important for children to spend quality time with their
28、 parents and sisters or brothers. “Its not the length of time, but the quality of time that families spend together that is really valuable,” Han said. “This type of communication is not something that you can get from anywhere else. It doesnt matter how old the child is, because family bonding (人与人
29、之间的关系) experiences can happen at any time.”Having children spend time with friends and families doesnt have to spend money in the wallet, either. For example, going to the neighborhood swimming pool or having a picnic is a great way to spend quality time together.28. What does Dr. Jin Han think abou
30、t the summer holidays according to the first paragraph?A. It is necessary for children to have a rest during summer holidays.B. Children should relax as much as possible during summer holidays.C.

How long children spend with families matters.B. What to do with families depends on the parents.C. When
32、 to spend time with families makes a difference.D. How to enjoy the time with families is of great importance.31.What is the main idea of the text?A. The importance of friends and families.B. The introduction of some social activities.C. The suitable ways to spend summer holidays.D. The necessity of
33、 face-to-face communication.DGiving children music lessons wont just introduce them to musicit could also greatly improve their language skills.While many studies have shown that learning an instrument can affect things like the language ability, it isnt understood if this is a side effect of a gene
34、ral improvement of cognitive (认知的) skills, or something that directly affects language processing.Now, wearegetting closer to an answer, thanks to a study of 74 Chinese kindergarten children, led by Robert Desimone from MIT. For the study, Desimones team chose children from the Chinese education sys
35、tem, with the support of education officials who wanted to see how it might improve their learning.The 4- to 5-year-old Mandarin-speaking children in the study were divided into three groups. One group received a 45-minute piano lesson three times a week, while another received extra reading instruc
36、tion classes. The third group acted as controls, taking no extra lessons beyond their usual classes.The classes lasted for six months, after which the children were tested on their ability to tell words based on differences in tones, consonants (辅音), or vowels (元音). The test results showed that the
37、children who had taken piano lessons performed better at telling the difference between words that differ by a single consonant, when compared with the children who took extra reading lessons. Compared to the control group, both the music learners and the extra reading group did better in telling th
38、e difference between words based on vowel differences.“It looks like for recognising differences between sounds, including speech sounds, its better than extra reading. That means schools could pay more attention to music,” Desimone says. “Its not worse than giving extra reading to the children, whi
39、ch is probably what many schools are trying to doget rid of the art education and just have more reading.”32.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Learning a musical instrument. B. A study of childrens schooling.C. The Chinese education system. D. Improvement of cognitive ski
40、lls.33.What did the third group learn in the study?A. Ways to improve their study. B. Three extra piano lessons a week.C. Extra lessons about reading tips. D. Nothing except their usual studies.34.What conclusion did researchers draw at last?A. Learning music improved learners memory.B. Children tak
41、ing piano lessons didnt perform well.C. The extra reading group were good at telling vowels.D. The piano turned out to be better than other instruments.35.What can we learn from what Desimone says?A. Children who learn music perform better at school.B. It isnt wise to cut back on music lessons.C. Sc
42、hools will increase reading classes.D.
