1.Friends become a child’s chosen family. If his social life is going well, he gains confidence. If he hastrouble connecting, it hurts and can make him feel sad and withdrawn and lonely.1.Help your child communicate. Naturally outgoing kids have an easier time expressing theirinterest in other children than shy ones do. But you can help build this skill through practice. Askyour child about his favorite games and toys. Praise him for specifics when he shows interest inother people:” You were so nice to let Roger talk about his little dog. I am proud of you.”2.Keep play short and sweet. Parents should keep early play date short, so no one gets too tiredand everyone has fun. Schedule the next one soon after that, so kids can quickly build on their comfort foundation.3.Know your child. If your child is bossy, tale with him and agree beforehand on which toys will be shared and which ones should be put away because your child just can’t seem to share them. If you have a shy child, match him with a younger child so he has a chance to be the leader.4.Help your child help others. Encourage your child to be a better friend by helping him includeothers in play. If you see someone being excluded, don’t ignore it. This is an opportunity to work on your child’s ability to understand others. “Rachel is being left out. That must make her feel very sad. Can you think of a way to include her in the game?”5.Help your kids help themselves. If your child is the one who’s being ignored or treated badly,teach him to speak up.The phrase” left out” in Para.5 is closed in meaning to____.

3.根据以下资料，回答103-106题。 　　The world's oceans have warmed 50 percent faster over the last 40 years than previously thought due to climate change, Australian and US climate researchers reported Wednesday．Higher ocean temperatures expand the volume of water, contributing to a rise in sea levels that is covering small island nations and threatening to destroy the low-lying, densely-populated low regions around the globe. 　　The study, published in the British journal Nature, adds to a growing scientific chorus of warnings about the pace and consequences rising oceans．It also serves as a corrective to a massive report issued last year by the Nobel-winning UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), according to the authors. 　　Rising sea levels are driven by two things: the thermal expansion of sea water, and additional water from melting sources of ice．Both processes are caused by global warming．The ice sheet that sits atop Greenland, for example, contains enough water to raise world ocean levels by seven meters, which would bury sea-level cities from Dhaka to Shanghai. 　　Trying to figure out how much each of these factors contributes to rising sea levels is critically important to understanding climate change, and forecasting future temperature rises, scientists say．But up to now, there has been a puzzling gap between the projections of computer-based climate models, and the observations of scientists gathering data from the oceans. 　　The new study, led by Catia Domingues of the Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research, is the first to reunite the models with observed data．Using new techniques to assess ocean temperatures to a depth of 700 meters from 1961 to 2003, it shows that thermal warming contributed to a 0.53 millimeter-per-year rise in sea levels rather than the 0.32 mm rise reported by the IPCC. 105 What was the main finding of the study?

4.He has___books in his study.

Passage Three

Thousands of years ago, ten of our very distant ancestors were hungry. They went out and picked berries or dug up roots to eat. Four of them chose poisonous food and died. The remaining six noticed that their food was safe to eat. They told their children, who, in turn, passed the message on to their descendants. In this way, habit became a vital factor in the survival of mankind: if you ate the right plant, you lived; if you wanted to make your own experiments, you would probably die.

The importance of habit on the survival of the human species is an interesting matter. Even today, most of us hesitate when we are invited to eat a new type of food or drink something we have not tasted before. Even if the food or drink is offered by a friend, we are usually not at all anxious to experiment and accept the offer.

When you get up tomorrow morning, notice which shoe or sock you put on first. Then notice which one you put on first on other days. You may discover that (a) you tend to put on one shoe or sock first every day, and (b) if you are right-handed, you usually deal with your left shoe or sock first. If you try to change this habit, you may find it uncomfortable or annoying, and you will soon return to your old habit. When it comes to other matters, we often follow a fixed pattern. We sleep in one or two favorite ways. We often follow familiar routes even when they are not the shortest or best. We often wear a watch on the same wrist even when there is no real reason for doing so. (83) In hundreds of other ways, we show that we are creatures of habit, following fixed patterns of behavior. This characteristic can help us to survive but it can be a barrier to progress too. We must be alert and not let a beneficial factor become a harmful one.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

14.A hundred years ago, the game we now call football did not exist．American football started during a game between two colleges．The teams had got together to play what they called "football", but each team played by different rules．One team played what we now call soccer．The other played what we now call rugby (橄榄球) . 　　Both games had been invented a thousand years before．In the first kind of football game ever played, all the men from one village tried to kick a ball into another village．The men of the second village tried to kick the ball into the first．Hundreds of people joined in, running everywhere, running crops and knocking down fences．In time, people agreed on some rules to keep order, but many rules were left open to change．Different rules developed in different places. 　　When the two colleges met to play football, each followed its own rules．They mixed the games together and invented a new game．A hundred years 1.ater we call that game American football. 　　In what ways do you suppose the game we know now will have changed in another hundred years?[单选题] "Both games" at the beginning of the second paragraph refers to __.

15.Key James, Secretary of Health and Human Resources in the Virginia State government, loves to turn the tables on those who don't think it's possible to be middle-class, conservative, educated and still be truly black．Once, during an abortion debate, a woman in the audience angrily told James she was so middle-class she didn't have a clue about real African American life．"If you understood what these women go through," the woman said, "you would realize that abortion is their only choice." 　　James then asked the woman to consider a poor black mother on welfare．She already has four children and an alcoholic husband who has all but abandoned the family．Now she discovers another child is on the way．"How would you counsel that woman?" asked James. 　　"Have an abortion," the woman responded．"That child would have a very poor quality of life." 　　"I have a vested interest in your answer," James said．"The woman I described was my mother．I was the fifth of six children born into poverty．And, in case you're interested, the quality of my life is just fine!"[单选题] James' family led a __ life when she was born.

Most parents,I suppose,have had the experience of reading a bedtime story1their children.And they must have realized how difficult it is to write a2children'sbook.Either the author has aimed(定目标）too3,so that children can't follow whatis in his(or more often,her)story,4the story seems to be talking to the readers.

The best children's books are 5very difficult nor very simple,and satisfy(令人满意的）the6 who hears the story and the adult(成年人）who 7it.Unfortunately（不幸的是），there are in fact few books like this,8 the problem of finding the rightbedtime story is not 9to solve.This may be why many of the books regarded as10of children's literature(文学）were in fact written for11 “Alice in Wonderland"is perhaps the most obvious(明显）of thisChildren,left for themselves,often12the worstpossible interest in literature just leave a child in a bookshop or a13and he will morewillingly choose the books written in an unimaginative(开非想象的）way.orhavelook at the most children’s comics(连环图书），full of the stories and jokes which ate the rejectionsof teachers and righting-thinking parents.Perhaps we parents should stop14 to brainwash(洗脑）children into accepting（接受）our taste in literature.After all,children and adults are so15 that we parentsshould not expect that they will enjoy the same books.So I suppose we'll just have to compromise(妥协）over the bedtime story.3（单选）

In china, it is relatively usual to ask people their age, but in the west, this question is generally regarded as impolite. This is particularly true 61 women, and even more 62 if the inquirer is a man. However, it is 63 to ask children their age, and some adults may not mind 64 either. In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to 65 their age, especially if they feel they look young 66 their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 67 question like ―How old are you?‖if elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they may easily 68 the topic themselves, and ask the other person to 69

how old they are. 70 such a situation, it is quite acceptable to discuss age 71.They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than 72 that they look very old! 73 westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not 74 that they are not interested to know how old other people

are. They may ask 75 for the information, 76 they may try to 77 the topic indirectly. Sometimes discussions about educational 78 and the number of years of working experience may provide some 79 , but this is not always the 80 .70.

19.There's a time to get angry,and it's best for your child if you do.Let's say your childhit a playmate with a toy-hard enough to make the other child cry.How can you teachyour child to feel sorry so he or she won't do it again?Researchers say the best way forParents to react(反应）is to show their anger and to let the child know exactly why theyare mad.Many parents believe that it is best to control their feelings and to wait until they'recalm before scolding their children.But the mother or father who explains reasonably to achild,"Peter was crying because you hit him."is not likely to attract much attention.Young children need to be scolded immediately,and strongly,before they'll take criticism（批评）to heart.When your young child does something wrong,scold him or her seriously at once.Atthe same time be sure to tell the child clearly what he or she has done wrong.An angry reaction without an immediate explanation does little good,Forbidding a child to play outsideor not allowing him to watch TVas a punishment works well-but only when taken together with an explanation,Make certain your child understands that although his or herwrongdoing has made you angry,you still love him or her.Use simple,direct words suchas,"You hurt Peter.How would you feel if he hit you?You must never,never hurt people."If your voice expresses strong feelings clearly,your message will carry enoughweight.What could be the best title for the text?（）
