to prepare for these tryouts. however, i didnt make the team. it was a heavy blow to me. i cried all night.kids today wont experience that kind of rejection. theyre growing up in “everybody gets a turn” world where every child gets a chance to kick the ball, sing the song, and win the award. but thats not always such a good thing.parents have become fearful of letting kids fail, thinking that our children are easily hurt and will never recover from anythingthats a serious problem. last week, my 7-year-old daughter didnt get into the school play. at first, i was upset by it. how would she react? when i gave her the news, i was ready to hug her and cry with her. she looked at me, made a slight face and said, “ thats too bad. whats for dinner?”it clearly wasnt the end of her world. maybe if we let our kids experience rejection once a while, wed realize they are much stronger than we think. kids need to be able to handle disappointments; doing so helps them to prepare for real life. most importantly, rejection carries the possibility not only for growth and can also motivate kids to try harder the next time.rejection is pain. there is no way around that. how will our kids ever discover their true talents if we dont let them? instead of complaining, maybe we should consider rejection an opportunity.21. the author shared her childhood story with readers to _. a. show how her parents attached importance to her education b. suggest how difficult it was for her to join a cheerleader squad c. introduce the topic of how to let kids face rejection in life d. explain why

smiths house to babysit（照看婴孩） three-year-old max. when mrs. smith invites you into the house, you find max sitting on the floor with an ipad. you look around for a book, and then you realize the ipad is teaching him how to read through a series of songs and games. mrs smith looks as though she couldnt be prouder of her son for playing such educational games.technology is becoming more important in our everyday lives. from playing a game to asking siri for directions to a restaurant, we are depending heavily on our handheld device. companies such as fisher-price and open solutions are making apps (应用程序) such as “laugh and learn”, “baby hear and read” and “babys first puzzle.” these apps are marketed to parents and their babies. some companies say that their apps will help the baby learn to read while others promise skills such as identifying shapes and sounds. many parents say that these games have helped their children a lot.recently the campaign for a commercial-free childhood, a boston-based group, has been accusing companies, who make these supposedly educational games, of false advertising. the campaign believes that these games are doing very little to improve the education of young children.“what babies need for healthy brain development is active play, hands-on creative play and face-to-face interaction.” says susan linn, the groups director. this means that when you are babysitting little max, you should play board games with him or games that require him to use his own imagination. this will help him to learn not only skills that the games teach him, but he will learn social skills. the american academy of pediatrics agrees with linn, discouraging any electronic time for babies under 2, while older children should be limited to one to two hours a day.25. we can learn that many parents think the apps such as “laugh and learn” are _.a. dull to use b. complex to operate c. expensive to buy d. beneficial to possess26. which of the following may susan linn agree with?a. the ipad will soon take the place of babysitters.b. babys first puzzle is a good choice for parentsc. babies should stay away from these learning appsd. the apps from fisher-price can teach children a lot.27. what a babysitter really needs to do is to _.a. buy more educational apps from marketsb. turn to commercial-free childhood for helpc. create more activities that children can take part ind. encourage more kids to discover more electronic games28. which of the following can be the best title of the passage?a. fun educational apps for educationb. learning apps: do they really help?c. is modern technology improving our lives?d. the campaign for a commercial-free childhoodca team of scientists from university of freiburg in germany are developing a shoe with a sensor to automatically tie its laces(鞋带)that could be taken off when users click their heels(鞋跟) togetherits been 26 years since we saw them magically tightening marty mcflys nike boots in the film back to the futurenow，self-tying shoelaces could actually become a reality this year，proving right one of the films fantastical predictions for what 2015 would be likeengineers have designed a shoe that can automatically lace up，adjusting itself to the shape of your footsimply slip the controller on and pressure sensors will tell the smart shoe when your foot is in position，triggering(触发)a tiny motor in the heel that pulls the laces tight.when you want to take off the shoes，you click your heels together twice and the motor will release a spring(弹簧)in the shoes tongue，which loosens the laces enough for you to slip them offand the invention doesnt even need to be plugged in to charge or have its battery replaced because it runs on power generated by the swing of your foot as you walkengineer klevis ylli，of the institute for micromachining and information technology in southern germany，said the shoes could help a variety of different people. “one focus is that it could be used in shoes for elderly people who have mobility problems,” he said“but it could also work for children，or as a lifestyle product.”the design，which is still in a prototype(雏形)stage，cleverly gets the energy of the foots swing when opposing magnets (磁铁)in each shoe move past each other. it then uses that power to charge a batteryan hour of walking is enough to tighten the laces once，and it requires no energy to undo the shoes because that relies on the spring alone.29which of the following can be the best title of the text?aa fantastical prediction ba great invention in germanyca shoe with self-tying laces da popular lifestyle product30what can we learn about the shoes?athey can automatically take offbthey can adjust themselves to your foot cthey need to be charged oncedthey have been

christmas eve isnt getting any longer. here are a few suggestions. note: we are not being paid to promote（促销）these products. 32 1. a 3d printer manufacturing is a tough business, so santa must be very

something of _65_ expert on apologies. a quick temper has provided me _66_ plenty of opportunities to make them. in one of my earliest _67_ (memory) ，my mother was telling me, “ dont watch the ground when you say, im sorry. hold your head _68_ and look at the person in the eye, so hell know you mean it.” my mother thus made the key point of a _69_(succeed) apology: it must be direct.another important thing we should do for an effective apology is to bear the responsibility for our careless mistakes. we are used to _70_(make) excuses, _71_ leaves no room for the other person to forgive us. since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling _72_ (good) about themselves. that, after all, is the purpose of every apology. it matters little _73_ you are wholly or only partly wrong: answering for your mistake _74_(encourage) others to take their share of the blame.第三节
