阅读理解阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c、d）中，选出最佳选项。athe life-long benefits of teaching children how to take care of their money make it well worth the effort. children who are not taught these lessons pay the consequences for a life time. some parents dont teach children about money because they think they shouldnt talk about money with children, dont have the time, or think they dont have enough money. parents should take the time to teach children about money regardless of their income and should start when children are young. most people have strong feelings and opinions about money, based on childhood experiences and the values and beliefs of their families. most often, these experiences, values, and beliefs are different for each parent. parents should talk about these feelings and opinions and establish an unchanging approach（方式） to teaching children about money. this is important for the healthy development of children. here are some tips that parents can keep in mind as they begin teaching their children to manage money: guide and advise your children how to spend their money, rather than tell them what they can and cannot do. encourage and praise children rather than criticize their actions. allow children to learn by mistakes and by successes. be consistent（前后一致的） while taking childrens differences into consideration. include all family members in money management discussions, decision making, and activities that are suitable for their age. as children get older include them in discussions of limits and consequences. expect all family members to do some everyday chores based on their abilities without being paid. express your desire to have things you cant afford. children need to know that parents say “no” to themselves, too. 56. it is _ for parents to teach their children about money management in their childhood.a. easy b. useless c. too early d. beneficial57. 15-year-old harry isnt good at managing his money. his mother is advised to _.a. explain to him how to manage his money betterb. pay him more money to deal with his chores c. praise him for what he has doned. allow him to buy what he wants58. when parents discuss how to manage the family finances, they should _.a. include their children in the discussionb. express their desire to have some valuable thingsc. pay more attention to their childrens differences d. try to meet their older childrens needs firstb on september 22, 2007, 108 chinese cities took part in car-free day, a global event held every year, for the first time. china became the worlds second-largest auto market and third-largest car-maker in 2006. it has also become the second-largest greenhouse gas producer in the world, and is rapidly catching up with the united states. in this sense, chinas participation will greatly promote the car-free day movement. the number of cars on the road is going up rapidly in china. in beijing, about 1,000 new cars are added to the streets on an average day. cars certainly offer people plenty of freedom to move around. but in many chinese cities, appearance of too many cars has turned into a major problem. getting stuck in traffic jams is an everyday experience for drivers. even worse is the environmental impact（影响）caused by cars. according to a national report, on a“smog day”, 79 percent of the air pollution is caused by cars. the growing number of traffic accidents is another problem. over 100,000 people die from traffic accidents every year in china, which is by far the highest number of road deaths in the world. 108 cities participation in car-free day shows growing public concern about the traffic and environmental problems caused by cars. on this day, all cars were banned from running in selected areas of the participating cities. people were encouraged to walk, cycle and use public transport. according to experts, the carbon monoxide in the atmosphere produced by cars was reduced by 3,000 tons on car-free day. with cleaner air and smoother traffic flow on the day, more cities will hopefully want to join the event next year. and more people might share the hope that car-free day is not just on september 22, but a possibility 365 days of the year.59. from the passage, we can know that china _.a. has the worlds highest number of road deaths b. has the worlds largest auto marketc. is the worlds largest greenhouse gas

cars c“our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,” said david belle,the founder of parkour(跑酷).do you love running? it is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. but what if making your morning jog a creative one? like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls? just like the james bond in the movie casino royale? bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill(窗台) and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. it is just because of bonds wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.yes, thats parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. parkour is considered an extreme sport. as its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop. parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念) behind parkour. this is the same as life. you must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully. a parkour lover said, “i love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.”another philosophy weve learnt from parkour is freedom. it can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. it is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence. 63. parkour has become popular throughout the world because of _.a. its founder, david belle b. the varieties of participantsc. its
