Unit 2 The Olympic Games.阅读理解A(2018山西运城模拟)You signed up for soccer, and played every game of the season. Sure, youre not the best player on the team, but most days you gave it your all. Do you deserve a trophy (奖杯)?If the decision were up to Carol Dweck, the answer would likely be no. Shes a psychology professor at Stanford University, California. She says a player doesnt have to be the best to get a trophy. But those who receive an award should have to work for it. She suggests trophies go to the most improved player, or the one who contributed most to the team spirit, as well as to those who play the best.“The trophy has to stand for something,” Dweck told TFK. “If we give a trophy to everyone, then the award has no value.” Dweck argues that giving kids trophies for particular reasons, such as improving in a sport, teaches kids that adults value hard work. Others say that theres no harm in giving awards to all kids who play a sport, regardless of how they played or whether or not they improved.“I think we should encourage kids participation in sports,” says Kenneth Barish, a psychology professor at Weill Cornell Medical College, in New York City. “A trophy is one way to encourage kids efforts.”Barish argues that when we single out only the best or even the most improved players with a trophy, we are teaching kids the wrong lesson. We are sending the message that winning is everything. “Winning is only part of the equation (等式),” Barish told TFK. “Playing sports also teaches kids something about teamwork and the importance of exercise.”There will be plenty of opportunities for kids to learn about competition as they get older, says Barish. Theyll soon realize that only one soccer team wins the World Cup and only one football team wins the Super Bowl. For now, he thinks theres nothing wrong with letting all kids who play a sport feel like winners. That means trophies for everyone. 1.According to Carol Dweck, which player should receive a trophy?A.Tony, the most attractive player of the soccer team.B.David, a soccer player who is both clever and funny.C.Peter, who is ready to help his partners to score goals.D.Jim, a soccer player who tries his best to win the game.2.Which of the following statements would Kenneth Barish agree with?A.There is no sense in giving a trophy to everyone.B.Kids fond of playing sports should be rewarded.C.Kids should be given trophies for trying their best.D.It is necessary to encourage kids participation in sports.3.The underlined phrase “single out” in Paragraph 6 probably means “”.A.honour B.chooseC.value D.stress4.Which shows the correct structure of the text?B(2017四川成都经济技术开发区实验中学月考)Parents can do anything for their children. Whether it should be their food, clothes or the places they live in,parents will always make sure their children have the best. One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their children. Choices include private schools, charter schools, public schools and home schooling.Fortunately for parents,there are a variety of strategies that they can adopt in order to increase their childrens overall intelligence. According to Ross A. Thompson, PhD at the University of California, a childs brain will actually reach 90% of its full size by the time he/she starts kindergarten.Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago concluded that playing a musical instrument directly affected the brainstem, the central part of the brain. Moreover, children who learn an instrument at an early age tend to continue to play it when they are older. And numerous studies show that a well-balanced meal is essential for a childs mental as well as physical health. Some researchers recommend that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. They state that three or four years of age is the perfect time and that any age under four will be good for a childs brain development.The average child will learn how to read between kindergarten and the second grade. Many parents can give their children a jump start by teaching them to read before they start school. Children can have an adequate background of the alphabet and pronunciations of words before attending school. This can be done by simply reading to them whenever you want.5.From the first paragraph, we can infer that.A.parents find it hard to satisfy their kids various demandsB.parents meet a new challenge when raising their kidsC.parents have more choices when offering education to their kidsD.parents get actively involved in the process of their kids growth6.What suggestion may the researchers in the passage make?A.To train kids as early as possible.B.To try as many means as possible.C.To help kids develop as fully as possible.D.To use as many available resources as possible.7.What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?A.The proper time to teach children to learn languages.B.The effective ways to help develop childrens brains.C.The vital factors in having a great effect on childrens health.D.The practical steps to arouse childrens interest in study.8.We can replace the words “jump start” in the last paragraph with.A.inspiration B.introduction C.suggestion D.promotion.语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Both the British and Americans like playing football.
