25、ke plans in advanceCShe founded Preschool Mastermind DShe gained confidence by sharingCIt may not be as easy as you think to build a foundation for your child of family values. Often we believe that our child will pick up on our values if they live in thesame home. While they may pick up many of our
26、 values, parents need to remember they are not the only influence in their childs life. These outside values often compete with family values for your childs attention. If we do not make a conscious effort toinstill our values intoour children, they may not get instilled at all. I wish I had learned
27、 that lesson a little earlier. I thought if I lived my values for my children they would pick them up and make their own. Sometimes this happened and sometimes it didnt. I often see twenty-something “kids” who have no faith in many of the values of their family in favor of the values of their friend
28、s. Children will often pick up the negative you show quicker than the positive, so the positive things need extra focus to set them.Some of the influences your children face every day include their church, their school, their friends, any clubs or sporting groups they are part of and more. Kids spen
29、d many hours a day at school and with their friends. Sometimes in the business of life, we suppose our children will obtain that foundation we want for them.Instilling a foundation of family values to sustain(维持) your child requires more than living it in front of them. That is important, but buildi
30、ng up your child with this important foundation must become intentional.That means we plan times to gather as a family. We plan activities together that show the values we want to pass on. We talk about our values; we live our values; we discuss the values of others and how they differ from ours; we
31、 constantly look for opportunities and make our own opportunities to share these values in word or deed with our children.Family values give our children a foundation to build upon. It helps them know they are loved and gives them a sense of belongings. Upon this sure foundation, they can spread the
32、ir wings and grow to become parents who share these same values with their own children.28. The underlined word “instill our values into” in the 1st paragraph probably means “_”.A. get our ideas out of B. impress our ideas onC. collect our ideas for D. force our ideas upon29. We can learn from the p
33、assage that children _.A. sustain their family values easily B. will hold their family values with ageC. often discuss family values of others D. accept negative values more quickly30. Family values can be passed on if _.A. we live with our children B. parents show positive thingsC. parents foster t
34、hem intentionally D. we plan times to gather with other families31. The passage mainly tells us about _.A. the importance and the way to pick up family valuesB. a lesson the writer learned in educating his(her) kidsC. the influences the children face while growing upD. some negative and positive fam
35、ily values DCan technology improve your trip? Meet Judy Williams. When she and her husband recently checked into Blu Hotel in Zurich, a clerk asked them to sign the dotted line on a room rate hundreds of dollars higher than their online offer. “It was not a cheap stay,” says Williams, a lawyer from
36、Billings, Mont. But it became more of one after her husband fired up the B app hed used to book their room on his smart phone. “As soon as we showed him the cost, he honored it,” Williams says. Technology may create challenges for travelers but it can also solve them. Its more than making sure of a
37、hotel cost. The latest B can help users select hotels by location, make a secure booking and view the confirmed (已确认的) cost so they never need to re-discuss their hotel price. Another pain point for travelers is traffic that eats away precious vacation time. Theres a new app called Commute which is
38、aimed at users who have to make the same trip every day. But if youre headed to Los Angeles or Honolulu, where visitors can easily get stuck in hours of heavy traffic, Commute can help. Just input basic information about your destination and expected leaving time, and the app will start sending you
39、traffic information 15 minutes before you leave. Testing Commute proved to be a challenge for me, because my home address is about 900 miles from my place of work. But if you have only a short distance to travel through a heavily populated area, you can use Commute to avoid traffic jams. Another sou
40、rce of travel-related problems is money. Thats particularly true when youre dealing with a foreign currency. The latest Travel Money Tracker helps travelers prevent currency mix-ups. It immediately changes a countrys native currency to yours, so you know exactly how much that Espresso (浓咖啡) in Milan
41、 costs in dollars. It can also warn you when youre overspending, which can sometimes be a problem when youre on vacation. The only catch, of course, is that you have to remember to record all your purchases. Taken together, these apps solve some of the most common travel problems. But not all of the
42、m. Some things, no smart phone can fix, which means I get to keep my job for now at least.32. What does the writer want to tell through the example of Judy Williams? A. The cost of Blu Hotel was higher than that of others. B. The clerk was very friendly and patient. C. The smart phones have many fun
43、ctions. D. Technology can make our trips better.33. Commute is not suitable for those who_. A. have a long journey B. go on the same trip every day C. can easily get stuck in traffic jams D. travel a short distance downtown34. What is the function of Travel Money Tracker? A. It tells people how much
44、 Espresso costs. B. It warns people when they are shopping. C. It changes the native currency to yours. D. It records all peoples purchases.35. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To encourage people to travel. B. To introduce some new apps. C. To help people with technology problems. D. To prov
