31、ds found in school would be confiscated(没收).He wrote, We do not wish to see any Valentines Day cards in school this year.

What she saw there made her stop dead in her
40、tracks.Being a busy college student just one year removed from her teenage years, she wasnt exactly obsessive-compulsive(有强迫观念和行为的) about the neatness of her clothes. But her boss at the restaurant where she works saw things a little differently. He had recently lectured the entire staff on the impo
41、rtance of appearance, and had specifically mentioned the need for servers to wear clean, unwrinkled blouses. As an assistant manager, Janelle felt it was important to set an example for the other employees. But if she stopped to iron the blouse normally, she would be late and work without delay was
42、an area of even greater concern to her boss.So she grabbed her iron and plugged it in and set it for low heat. Carefully holding her blouse away from her body, she continued to iron it while she was wearing it. It seemed like a logical answer to an urgent problem.And it seemed to be working until Ja
43、nelle tried to iron the collar and accidentally ironed her neck by mistake. Then it suddenly seemed like a really stupid idea and a really painful one as well. It took more time to treat her burn than it would have taken to iron her shirt properly. And she spent a miserable shift dealing with the pa
44、in of the burn.Weve all been there, havent we? For me it was cutting my own hair. For a former roommate it was trying to pull his own wisdom teeth.

BDo things right.CA bad beginning makes a bad ending.DStick to old ways.D篇A team of researchers in the UK has shown that children who are taken to the library more often and own more books at two years old achieve higher scores in school tests when they begin primary school. The research also show
50、ed that although social background has a noticeable effect on a childs readiness for school attending preschool and having their parents teach them a wide range of activities have a positive effectwhile extended exposure to television lowers their scores.One message coming through loud and clear is
51、that how a child learns in his very early years is critical (至关重要的) for a smooth transition into the educational system said Professor James Law. This is a very positive message * as it gets us away from the belief that a childs educational future is predetermined by standard measures of socioeconom

These children go on to achieve higher scores in language reading and maths tests when they
53、enter school.

54、nd academic skills throughout their schooling. This project set out to uncover what factors contribute to these problems.Professor Sue Roulstone said These findings are an encouragement to all parents to provide a positive communication environment for their children from the very start of their liv
55、es. The project did identify particular aspects of the communication environment such as having childrens books around and not having the television on too much. But the main message is that as parents we can have an impact on how our children learn to talk by providing a range of communication expe
56、riences. And the better our children are at talking by the age of two years old the better they will do when they start school. 66. According to the passage,which of the following does NOT have a positive effect on childrens success at school?A. Attending pre-school. B. Being taken to a library as e
