want them to be confident and content. what can parents do to help their kids grow up to lead happy lives？ experts advise：1.helping them find their talents. in order to succeed，children need to feel theyre good at something. so expose your children to as many interests as possible， then let them choose those they like best.2.applauding their achievements. a study found that students whose parents paid attention to their abilities were far more likely to do well in school and in lifethan students whose parents didnt show such support. so celebrate your kids achievements， no matter how small they are.3.praising their efforts. kids wont always come out on top. still， they deserve kudos (赞誉) for trying their best. ten-year-old april cutler， for example， has had trouble with math since second grade. “she usually gets cs on her report card， but last year she was determined to get as and worked hard at it，”says her mom.“when the first grading period ended， april was disappointed when she got a b minus in math，”lueille continues.“but my husband and i told her we were very proud that shed improved. that inspired her to try even harder. she got a b plus for the next period！”4.letting them make decisions and mistakes. making his/her own decisions increases a childs sense of control and builds his/her self-esteem (自尊心). and allowing kids to make wrong decisionsso long as doing so wont harm themhelps kids learn from their mistakes.5.encouraging them to solve their own problems. as they grow, children need practice in communicating，standing up for themselves and compromising. one of the best places to learn these skills is at home. so the next time your child runs to you complaining that her brother is blaming her， step back and let them work it out.46.what is the purpose of the passage？a. to encourage parents to admire their kids.b. to show how to praise kids.c. to help kids study harder.d. to give advice on how to help kids become mature.47.the passage is mainly intended for_.a. kids b. parents c. teachers d. educators48.from the example of april cutler， we can learn that_.a. praising kids efforts can help them make greater progressb. setting a high goal makes kids feel discouragedc .solving problems by themselves helps kids feel confidentd. interest is the best teacher49.why should parents allow kids to make mistakes？a. making mistakes is a normal thing for a kid.b. adults also make mistakes now and then.c. kids can learn something valuable from their mistakes.d. making mistakes wont harm kids.bmy grandmother was from a town in michigan. summer after summer， i enjoyed staying with my grandparents as a young child. i was from the city and loved the small town they lived in. people knew everyone， their kids， their pets， their ancestors. the bond with them continued to grow as i grew and they got older. grandma was always using her hands for something exciting. she would make little sandwiches and wed have tea parties. shed make beautiful quilts for each one. i remember the small thimble(顶针)she would use while doing her needle work.a few years ago，when grandma left this earth，i bid farewell to a loving grandmother. how quickly our lives can change. we had just had tea together a couple of months earlier，on her 91st birthday.i missed her very much. on one particular birthday，when i was feeling a little low，something happened to make me feel like she was sharing that special day with me. i was arranging some colorful pillows that she had made， and suddenly i felt something inside one pillow. it was small and hard. i moved the object to a seam (接缝) that i carefully opened， and to my delight out came a tiny silver thimble！ how happy i was to find something that had been a part of her. not realizing it had fallen off her finger， i pictured her sewing it in that little pillow that i just happened to place on my bedspread that day. i carefully laid the thimble alongside the others ive collected over the years， where i could continue to see the gift god chose to reveal to me. what a precious memory of a very special lady who somehow， i knew，was laughing in delight at sewing her thimble inside my pillow.i made some tea， using my best china， as grandma always did， and enjoyed my tea and grandmas thimble. what a wonderful birthday that was！50.the author wrote this passage to_.a. show she missed living with her grandma b. express a desire to lead a simple lifec. call on people to care for the old d. recall her happy childhood51.the author liked staying with her grandparents because _.a. they often bought her some gifts b. she was curious about people and things therec. she could have tea parties and eat sandwichesd. she could learn to sew quilts52.how did the author feel when she found the silver thimble？a. sad. b. proud. c. lucky. d. cheerful.53.it can be inferred from the passage that the silver thimble _.a. was the item the author had been trying to findb. was the most treasured possession of grandmac. was very precious to the authord. was a birthday gift grandma had given the authorci am a good mother to three children. i have tried never to let my passion stand in the way of being a good parent.i no longer consider myself the center of the universe. i show up. i listen. i try to laugh. i am a good friend to my husband. i have tried to make marriage vows (誓言) mean what they say. i am a good friend to my friends， and they to me. without them， there would be nothing to say to you today.so heres what i want to tell you today： get a life. a real life， not a desire of the next promotion， the bigger paycheck， the larger house.get a life in which you are not alone. find people you love， and who love you. and remember that love is not leisure； it is work. pick up the phone. send an e-mail. write a letter. and realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.its so easy to waste our lives， our days， our hours， and our minutes. its so easy to exist instead of to live. i learnt to live many years ago. something really， really bad happened to me， something that changed my life in ways that， if i had my choice， it would never have been changed at all. and what i learned from it is what， today， seems to be the hardest lesson of all.i learned to love the journey， not the destination. i learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because i believed in it， completely and totally. and i tried to do that， in part， by telling others what i had learned.by telling them this： read in the backyard with the sun on your face. learn to be happy. and think of life as a deadly illness， because if you do， you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.54.it can be inferred from the passage that _a. the author is a success in personal lifeb. the author didnt try her best to work wellc. the author spent all her time caring for her childrend. the author likes traveling very much55.how did the author form her view of life？a. through social experience.b. by learning from her friends.c. through an unfortunate experience.d. from her children and husband.56.by the underlined sentence “its so easy to exist instead of to live” in the fifth paragraph， the author really means that people tend to _.a. make a living rather than live a real lifeb. work rather than enjoy lifec. waste a lot in lifed. forget the most important lessons in life57.whats the authors attitude toward work？a. do it well to serve others.b. earn enough money to make life better.c. try your best to get a higher position and a pay raise.d. dont let it affect your real life.dhappy leap day！ leap day， you ask？ yes， its february 29. you may notice this date didnt appear on last years calendar， or the year before that， or the year before that .thats because leap day happens once every four yearsand 2008 is a leap year. a leap year has 366 days instead of the usual 365 that an ordinary year has. an extra day is added to the calendar in a leap year， and heres why：the 365 days of the calendar are meant to match up with the solar year. a solar year is the time it takes the earth to complete its orbit around the sunabout one year. but the earths yearly trip around the sun takes a bit longer than 365 days. the orbit takes 365 days， 5 hours， 48 minutes， and 46 seconds， to be exact. that time equals roughly one quarter of a day， so the calendar and the solar year dont match exactly. after a few years， that extra time in the solar year begins to accumulate. after four years， for example， the four extra quarter days would make the calendar fall behind the solar year by about a day.according to the honor society of leap year day babiesa club for people born on leap daythere are an estimated 4 million people whose birthdays come but once every four years. but who wants to wait four years to celebrate your birthday？ most celebrate yearly on february 28 or march 1.there was a time when strict rules prevented women from proposing marriage to their beloved.in most cultures， thats not the case anymore. in fact， female pioneers who thought this rule was clearly unfair managed to get leap year established as an acceptable time for women to “pop the question” to unmarried men. so on february 29one day every four years a man could be surprised with an offer he couldnt refuse. the first documentation of this day of ladies choice was in 1288 in scotland. officials then decided to pass a law that allowed women to propose marriage to the man of their choice in that year. they also made it law that any man who said no to a proposal in a leap year had to pay a fine. the fine could range from a kiss to payment for a silk dress or a pair of gloves.58.according to the first two paragraphs， we can conclude that _.a. february 29 never appears on the calendarb. february 29 comes once every 4 years， every leap yearc. 2008 has 365 days， 5 hours， 48 minutes， and 46 secondsd .an ordinary year has one day more than a leap year59.what does the underlined phrase “pop the question” probably mean？a. propose marriage. b. refuse marriage. c.ask questions. d.give directions.60.which
