17、 computer. I waited patiently for ideas to come to me, thinking about exam questions for a school test I would give to my English students tomorrow. My wife was off to a reunion somewhere, but I wasnt alone. Our two children kept me company. Ten-month-old Edward spent most of his day looking at some
18、 cards and other different pieces of paper. But Meghan was different from her younger brother.She followed a daily routine that needed much time and was difficult. It included certain basic tasks: watching the fish, sweeping the carpet in her room, sitting for a few minutes on the bottom shelf of th
19、e bookcase to determine whether she still fitted there, checking regularly on Edward or jumping on the sofa.I could do my own work fairly well during most of these chores. Unfortunately, I had not counted on the “Bib-bibs, bib-bibs”. “Bib-bibs, bib-bibs” shrieked Meghan, and her eyes were alive with
20、 expectation. She insisted that I go with her to the window. “No, Meghan,” I answered irritably. “Not now. Go away and leave me alone.”She left without any attempt to bother me. I could finish the test easily without interference. However, I saw her standing quietly with tears running down her cheek
21、s. She had two fingers of her right hand in her mouth and watched me type. She caught sight of the birds from time to time.At this moment, only for a moment, I saw a little girl crying because I didnt have time for her, realizing somehow it was the sitting next to each other that meant everything. I

24、ughter.D. To stop his daughter from making noise.CI often wonder how people can get so angry, so deep in their own belief that they become deaf to anything that may differ from their beliefs. Ive often been told that Im too open-minded, listening to others viewpoints so openly that they become my ow
25、n. Maybe that comes from my practice of actively listening to others. It means that I do really hear them instead of responding only out of politeness. Maybe its because I was brought up by parents who didnt necessarily speak to me about respecting others but modeled it for me through their own acti
26、ons. They treated everyone equally, from what I remember, never looking down upon others because they were different from us.As I raise my daughters, I try my best to show them love and understanding in all situations. When they misbehave, talk back, or break the rules, Ill lovingly analyze the reas
27、ons behind their behaviour. Ill be tolerant (宽容的) towards their differing opinions and become open and curious about their ideas. And Ill be mindful of how I treat and speak to others, showing equal respect to everyone.My expectation is that if I show my daughters unconditional love and acceptance,
28、theyll learn to show the same love to others. I hope that they will not see difference as a threat, but as a way to add richness to their very existence. Its beautiful to live in a world filled with so many differences.So, as I write this, welcoming my second daughter to my family, Im fully aware th
29、at change begins with how I act and what decisions I make. Every generation carries its own set of problems. All we have control over is how we respond to those problems. This is what I will teach my girls: how to control their own emotional world; how to hold onto love as well as their beliefs and
30、values; how to remember that hate and anger are never the answer and that tolerance and love will always take them further in life.8. What makes the author different from other people?A. Her deep understanding of belief.B. Her negative views on social politeness.C. Her reaction to different opinions
31、.D. Her confusing attitude towards her parents.9. What does the author intend to do as for raising her kids?A. Encourage them to have different opinions.B.

What can be the best title for this text?A. The Importance of Love and ToleranceB. The Art of Social CommunicationC. The Ways to Effec
33、tively Listen to othersD. The Positive Attitude towards Hate and AngerD“ Go ahead,” I told Linda. “ Pick up the rock, and see whats under it.”Her 4-year-old arms struggled with the rock buried in the stream bed. Her eyes got big as she examined the worms after their nest was uncovered. She watched q
34、uietly, as they walked past her foot. She gently put the rock back and said,” Are there worms under all the rocks?”This wasnt school it was a nature-based summer camp in New Yorks Hudson Valley that I ran when I was 17. When I turned the kids over to their parents at the end of the day, they were ti
35、red, inspired by nature and knowledge.Finlands “forest kindergartens” use the natural world as a jumping off point for early academic instruction to make them enjoy learning. Finland is following in the footsteps of other European countries including Denmark, where outdoor education has been common
36、for many years.In the Finnish program, kids spend four days of a week, from 8:30a.m. to 6:30p.m., outside with a teacher. Built into the program is quite a bit of playtime. Kids get a lot of exercise and lesson plans are freely made so teachers can use whats at hand and in season in their lessons.Wh
37、ile all this sounds less strict than a classroom-based kindergarten program, the results show that these types of programs have better results for overall physical health as well as academic performance and social development. But arent the kids who do this coming from wealthy, educated communities
38、so, of course they score better on tests? In fact, the greatest gains from spending time outdoors can be found in kids who are coming from less advantageous background. At a school near Atlanta, where kids spend 30 percent of their day outside, students have improved scores more than students from a
39、ny other school in their area, and most of the kids there come from poor families.12. Why did the author ask Linda to turn over the rock?A. To help Linda be independent.B. To see if Linda had enough courage.C. To give Linda a chance to study nature.D. To teach Linda how to protect animals.13. Whats
40、the purpose of Finlands “forest kindergartens”?A. To help kids learn about forests.B. To popularize outdoor education.C. To show the importance of play.D. To develop kids interest in study.14. Compared with classroom-based kindergartens, “forest kindergartens”_.A. seem to be less tiringB. have no fi
41、xed lesson plansC. set many strict rulesD. have no teachers around15. What is an advantage of outdoor programs according to the last paragraph?A. Kids joining them score higher on tests.B. They help change poor kids families.C. They do good to communities.D. Kids meet people who are different from t

43、.Use “I to communicate how you feel, what you think and what you want or need. _17_For example, telling your parents “You always remind me about my housework when you know I have much homework” has a very different tone from “Im feeling pressured because I have a lot of homework tonight. Can I do th

When the other person is talking, try to stop yourself from thinking about why you disagree or what youll say next._19_This is the important thing you can do to keep a conversati

Of course, its a huge challenge to stay calm when you feel angry about something, especially if their person youre talking to gets heated._20_If youve ever been on the receiving end of someones put-downs (贬损的话), you know how valuable using respectful language and behavior can be. So ins
46、tead of saying what you might be thinking (Thats a stupid idea!), try saying “I dont agree, and here is why.”Respect goes beyond difficult conversations, of course. Being helpful and considerate towards family members, teachers or coaches in our everyday actions helps us establish a foundation for t
