She announced that my brother and I _40_ watch t
20、wo to three pre-selected TV programs during the week. With our free time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and _41_ to her written book reports. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a _42_. My mother was illiterat

One night my mother came home from _45_ her various jobs and I complained about not having enough Italian knit shi

With everything _47_, you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want. I was very _48_ with that arrangement but once I got through allocating mone
23、y, there was _49_ left. I realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to _50_ a roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, _51_ buy clothes. I also realized that immediate satisfaction wasnt going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation. I went back to my _

28、skill-the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is usual that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby mi
29、ght be forced to use a toilet too early, and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his des
30、ire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters, other are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed(强加的) represent the needs of
31、the parents and the values of the community as much as the childs own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parent teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is not foundation for morality. Also, parents should
32、realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教), their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a mark
33、ed difference between their parents principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.56. Eagerly watching the childs acquisition of new skills _.A. should be avoided B. is universal among parents C. sets up dangerous states of worry in the child D. will make him lose interest in learnin
34、g new things57. When children are learning new skills, parents should _.A. encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they readB. not expect too much of themC. achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD. create as many learning opportunities
35、as possible58. The second paragraph mainly tells us_.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB .parents controls satisfy only the needs of the parents and the values of the communityC. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children aloneD. parents vary
36、 in their strictness towards their children according to the situation59.

Their drivers wont have to stop at gas stations as often as usualThe technology is more th

Besides,driving around in these vehicles may even help the environmentGas-burning cars produce a lot of greenhouse gas,which causes globe warming.The first company-pr
39、oduced plug-in vehicles could hit the roads by 2010. But engineers still have a lot of work to do to make the technology practical and inexpensiveBatteries(电池) are the biggest challenge. In the plug-in-vehicle world,Li-ion(锂离子)batteries are getting the most attentionThese batteries can store a large
40、 amount of energy in a small package,and they last a longer time between chargesLi-ion batteries can fit laptops,cell phones,heart instruments and other similar pocket ones.But because cars are so big and heavy, it would still require a suitcase-sized Li-ion batteries to power about 12km of drivingW
41、hats more,the batteries are much expensive“A car filled with batteries could go a long distance,”says Ted Bohn, an electrical engineer in Chicago“But it couldnt pull any peopleand it would cost $100,000”So researchers need to work out how to make batteries smaller and cheaper,among other questions.“
42、The answers dont exist yet,”Bohn says,“As a kid,I thought someone someplace knows the answer to everythingAll of these questions havent been decidedThats what engineering is about-making a guess,running tests and getting fine results”60The passage mainly talks about_ of a new carAthe developing Bthe

46、ng about having to work on Christmas. Just then five bodies showed up at my desk, a pale woman and four small children.“Are you all sick?” I asked suspiciously.“Yes,” she said weakly and lowered her head.But when it came to descriptions of their presenting problems, things got a little vague. Two of
47、 the children had headaches, but the headaches werent accompanied by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still. Two children had earaches, but only one could tell me which ear was affected. The mother complained of a cough but seemed to work to produce it.Something was
48、wrong, but I didnt say anything but explained that it might be a little while before a doctor saw her. She responded, “Take your time; its warm here.”On a hunch (出于直觉), I checked the chart after the admitting clerk had finished registering the family. No address-they were homeless. The waiting room
49、was warm.I looked out at the family huddled by the Christmas tree. The little one was pointing at the television and exclaiming something to her mother. The oldest one was looking at an ornament on the Christmas tree.I went back to the nurses station and mentioned we had a homeless family in the wai
50、ting room. The nurses, grumbling about working Christmas, turned to compassion for a family just trying to get warm on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when theres a medical emergency. But this one was a Christmas emergency.We were all offered a free meal in the hospital cafeteria
51、 on Christmas Day, so we claimed that meal and prepared a banquet for our Christmas guests. We needed presents. We put together oranges and apples in a basket. We collected from different departments candies, crayons and other things available that could be presents. As seriously as we met the physi
52、cal needs of the patients that came to us that day, our team worked to meet the needs, and exceed the expectations, of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas Day.Later, as the family walked to the door to leave, the four year old came running back, gave me a hug and whispered, “Thanks for

In medici
56、ne as in law, government, and other lines of work, the requirements of honesty often seem dwarfed by greater needs; the need to protect patients from brutal news, to uphold a promise of secrecy or to advance the public interest.What should doctors say, for example, to a 46-year-old man coming in for
57、 a routine physical checkup just before going on vacation with his family who, though he feels in perfect health, is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months? Is it best to tell him the truth? If he asks, should doctors reject that he is ill, or minimize the gravit
58、y of the illness? Should they at least hide the truth until after the family vacation?Doctors face such choices often. At times, they see important reasons to lie for the patients own sake; in their eyes, such lies differ sharply from self-serving ones.Studies show that most doctors sincerely believ
59、e that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth about their condition, and that informing them of risks destroys their hope, so that they may recover more slowly, or deteriorate faster, perhaps even commit suicide.But other studies show that, contrary to the belief of many physicians
60、, a great majority of patients do want to be told the truth, even about serious illness, and feel cheated when they learn that they have been misled. We are also learning that truthful information, humanely conveyed, helps patients cope with illness; help them tolerate pain better with less medicine
61、, and even recover faster after surgery.There is an urgent need to debate this issue openly. Not only in medicine, but in other professions as well, practitioners may find themselves repeatedly in difficulty where serious consequences seem avoidable only through deception. Yet the public has every r
62、eason to know the professional deception, for such practices are peculiarly likely to become deeply rooted, to spread, and to trust. Neither in medicine, nor in law, government, or the social sciences can there be comfort in the old saying, “What you dont know cant hurt you.”Title: 1 Or NotDifferent

78、great benefit to interpersonal communication apart from self-improvement. It can also enrich our life and bring people pleasure. Books are to mind what food is to body. However, not every book is worthy of being read. So keep in mind that choosing a good book is like making a good friend. In additio
