these three popular misquotes (戏谑的引语) are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature. to err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people dont want to accept the responsibility for having made a mistake. they naturally look for someone else who could be responsible for the problem. perhaps it is the natural thing to do. the original quote about human nature went like this:“to err is human, to forgive, divine (神圣的).” this saying mirrors an ideal:people should be forgiving of others mistakes. instead, we tend to do the oppositefind someone else to pass the blame on to. however, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a mark of great maturity. common sense is what we call clear thought. having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine. common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. people say that in a large company, “the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.and what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? one of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that its okay not to be totally honest all the time. there is a corollary (直接推论) to that:if a good excuse is“good” even if it isnt honest, then where is the place of the truth?1. according to the passage, which of the following seems the most human? a. to search for truth.b. to achieve ones ideal. c. to make fun of others mistakes. d. to criticize others for ones own error. 2. according to the author, what is a sign of a mans maturity? a. doing things his own way.b. bearing responsibility for his mistakes.c. making as few mistakes as possible.d. thinking seriously about his wrongdoings.3. which of the following is not based on common sense? a. a man tries to take charge of everything in a large company.b. a student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather.c. a companys next move follows a good plan. d. a lawyer acts on fine judgments.4. what is the authors opinion about a good excuse? a. making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.b. inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.c. a good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.d. bitter truth is better than a good excuse.5. what would be the best title for this passage? a. a mirror of human natureb. to blame or to forgivec. a mark of maturityd. truth of excuse【参考答案】64.1-5 dbada 阅读理解【2014临沂3月质量检测】it can be hard to encourage families of preschoolers to turn off the tv，but there are plenty of highquality shows that promote learning and positive relationships rather than violence，researchers noted.“although clearly kids watch too much，whats more worrying is that they watch poor quality shows，” said dr christakis，the lead researcher on the new study from the university of washington in seattle.his former survey of parents of threeto fiveyearold children showed the kids often watched violent cartoons and movies that are “totally inappropriate”for their study，he and his colleagues randomly divide 565 preschoolers into two groups.in one group，parents recorded notes about kids normal tv viewing，without receiving any guidelines to reduce or change those habits.in the other group，researchers made visits and calls and sent monthly newsletters encouraging parents to replace violent tv with educational programming.after six and 12 months，parents reported their kids angry，aggressive or anxious behaviors on a questionnaire.at both time points，children in the tv intervention (干预) program had slightly fewer problems than those in the comparison group.boys in lowincome families seemed to benefit most from the change in programming，the researchers found.“the point is，this is something that is as effective as other things we do to try to guide behavior in children，and its fairly simple，” christakis said.another study published in pediatrics found the more tv kids and teens watched，the more likely they were to have a crime or other problems in society.children may imitate violence they seeor more time in front of the tv could simply mean less communication with peers and families，and worse performance in school.the american academy of pediatrics recommends kids watch no more than one to two hours of highquality programming each day.researchers agreed parents should be mindful of what exactly their young kids are watching on tv as well.“its not just about turning the tv off，its about changing the channel，” christakis said.1what is the positive effect of highquality tv shows on kids?agood learning results and relationships.bbeing affected by violence.cspending less time on tv programming.dencouraging them to turn on the tv.2for christakis，what is more concerning?akids watching too much tv.btv shows being of poor quality.ckids watching too many cartoons.dparents receiving no guidelines.3we can learn from the survey mentioned in para.3 that_.achildren dont like being disturbed while watching tvbpreschoolers seems to like newsletters more than tvcpoor children prefer to watch educational programmingdkids watching highquality programs have fewer problems4. christakis thought the effect of educational programming on childrens behaviour was_.aunclear bslight cobvious dgreat5according to the researchers，_.agetting preschoolers away from tv is difficultbshows on tv in america are full of violencecparents should communicate more with their kidsdparents should keep an eye on what kids watch on tv语篇解读本文是一篇调查报告。研究人员通过调查研究发现：高质量的电视节目对学龄前儿童的学习和待人处事，有很大的促进作用。同时文中还提醒家长：关掉电视不是明智之举，关键要关注孩子观看的节目内容。1解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“.but there are plenty of highquality shows that promote learning and positive relationships”可知，a项正确。答案：a2解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“.whats more worrying is that they watch poor quality shows.”可知，b项正确。题干中的concerning与“worrying”同义。答案：b3解析：细节理解题。根据第三段倒数第二句“at both time points，children in the tv intervention (干预) program had slightly fewer problems than those in the comparison group.”可知，与对照组相比，所看电视节目受到干预的孩子的问题相对较少。答案：d4解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第三段和最后一段可知，christakis认为，教育类的电视节目对孩子行为的影响是显而易见的。答案：c5解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“researchers agreed parents should be mindful of what exactly their young kids are watching on tv as well.”可知，家长应该关注孩子所看电视节目的内容。答案：d。【上海市嘉定区】 directions: read the passage carefully. then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance（津贴）the purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costlythe amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to familytiming is another considerationsome children get a weekly allowanceothers get a monthly allowancein any case，parents should make clear what，if anything，the child is expected to pay for with the moneyat first，young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive itif they do this，they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budgetparents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowancethe object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and savingolder children m
