that can keep them busy and develop their imagination. when you encourage children to use their imagination, you are giving them confidence in themselves, in their own creative abilities; by suggesting they put on a play you are encouraging them to work together and develop teamwork skills.the best way to help your kids have fun when it is rainy outside is to let them come up with some ideas. when you feel that they are old enough, let them write their ideas on a piece of paper and you can pick an idea that you find practical. that way, every day can be fun!56.kids are most likely to be unhappy in winter because . a. it is very cold and windyb. they lead a miserable life c. they like spring very muchd. they cant enjoy themselves outside57.the indoor treasure hunt is an activity in which kids . a. would like to get much treasureb. are eager to find something c. are forced to stay indoorsd. try to help each other.58.dressing up can help kids to develop their . a. confidence, creation and teamwork skills b. creation, interest and determination c. teamwork skills, hobby and creation d. imagination, hobby and braverybafter mom died, i began visiting my father every morning before i went to work. he was weak and moved slowly, but he always had a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice on the kitchen table for me, along with an unsigned note, reading, drink your juice.” such a gesture, i knew, was as far as my father had ever been able to do in expressing his love. in fact, i remember, as a kid i had questioned mom, “why doesnt father love me?” mom frowned, “who said he doesnt love you?” “well , he never tells me,” i complained. “he never tells me either.” she said, smiling. “but look how hard he works to take care of us, to buy us food and clothes, and to pay for this house. thats how your father tells us he loves us.”i nodded slowly. i understood in my head, but not in my heart. i still wanted my father to put his arms around me and tell me he loved me. he owned and operated a small scrap metal (废旧金属) business, and after school i often hung around while he worked. he fed scrap steel into a device that chopped it as cleanly as a butcher chops a rack of ribs. the machine looked like a giant pair of scissors, with blades thicker than my fathers body. if he didnt feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. “why dont you hire someone to do that for you?” mom asked him one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. “why dont you hire a cook?” my father asked, giving her one of his rare smiles.many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me, i walked over, hugged him and said, “i love you, father.” from then on i did this every morning. my father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when i gave them.59. the authors father always prepared a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice for him because . a. that was the authors favoriteb. he was sure the author would be thirsty c. the author was always complainingd. that was a gesture of love60. the authors father didnt hire a helper because . a. his job was too dangerousb. his job required high skills c. he wanted to save moneyd. he was not good at working with others61. we can infer from the passage that . a. the authors father lacked a sense of humor b. the author quite understood his father as time went on c. the authors father didnt love him very much d. the authors father was too strict with him62. whats the passage about? a. the proper attitude towards life.b. the importance of education. c. silent fatherly love.d. ways to live happily.ci walked down the hall heading to see my 88-year-old grandma who had been in hospital. each member of the family was taking turns sitting with her because of her dementia (痴呆). as i did i looked very carefully at some of the rooms on this wing of the hospital, and it seemed that almost every bed held an elderly person. some appeared to be confused, and some just looked lonely. i couldnt help but notice that there was no family there, no one to care them, and no one to reduce the ache of loneliness. my heart broke inside me.they are aging, with withered (萎缩的) skin on their faces and hands, their eyes look tried, and yet no one notices them. could it be that we are far too busy to slow down and give a moment of our time to anyone that may swerve (使突然转向) us off the course we are traveling on? are we afraid of those who have come before us to pave the way, afraid that they carry some awful disease that if we get too close we might catch it?whatever the case may be, one day we will be those same people that we long to avoid. we pay thousands of dollars for staying young, and we may turn up the music to forget the thoughts of getting older. but, try as we might, time and age will catch up with us.we seem to have come to detest (嫌恶) the elderly. while we once held them in high regard and honor, always enjoying their stories of history, we now see them as a pain, always in our way. isnt it time we wake up?so, next time you see a withered hand extended in need, or peer into the eyes of a lonely aging face, dont run or look away. remember, it might just be you in that place one day.63. what made the author deeply sad? a. the poor food for the patients.b. the sight he saw in the hospital. c. the hopeless patients in the hospital.d. the bad service of the hospital.64. whats peoples excuse for not visiting the old? a. they are too busy.b. they cant afford it. c. they live too far away.d. they usually travel abroad.65. what can we learn from the passage? a. time will tell the truth.b. people are afraid of being old. c. a doctor is important to old people.d. respecting elderly people is a good tradition.66. what does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph? a. respect the old.b. get along well with the old. c. help and pay attention to the old.d. spend more time with our parents.dbaby girls make their way to dolls as son as they can crawl(爬), and boys will head for the toy cars, a study has shown. the findings-the first t o show consistent differences in very young babies-suggest there is a biological basis for their preferences.psychologists dr brenda todd carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged 9 months to 36 months. they were allowed to choose from 7 toys. some were boys toys-a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy. the rest were girls toys; a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. they were placed a meter away from the toys, and could pick whichever toy they liked. their choice and amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded.of the youngest children (9 to 14 months), girls spent much longer time playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and the ball than the girls did. among the two and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. the boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars, which the girls barely touched. there was no link between the parents views on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls, and the childrens choices.dr brenda todd said, “children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. boys may be given toys that go while girls get toys they can care for, which may help shape their preferences. but these findings are consistent with the former idea that children show intrinsic(内在的) interest in particular kinds of toys. there could be a biological basis for their choices. males through evolution have been adapted to moving objects, probably through hunting instincts (本能), while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink, the color of a newborn baby.”67. baby boys and girls have different toy preferences probably because . a. baby boys are much more active b. baby girls like bright colors better c. their parents treat them differently d. there is a biological difference between them68. what can we infer from paragraph 3? a. nine-month-old baby boys dont play with dolls at all. b. two-year-old baby girls sometimes play with cars and balls c. the older the babies are, the more obvious their preference is. d. parents should teach baby boys and girls to share each others toys.69. what conclusion did dr brenda todd draw from the results of the study? a. adults purposely influence the preference of babies. b. babies preference isnt affected by social surroundings.(环境) c. baby boys preferring moving toys will be good at hunting. d. baby girls preferring warmer colors will be warmhearted.70. which column of a newspaper does the passage probably appear in? a. science.b. health.c. education.d. entertainment.v. 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。a hobby is an activity we can do in our free time, so that we can keep ourselves busy with something that makes us happy. different people pursue (追求) different kinds of hobbies, according to their personal likes and dislikes. hobbies are activities we choose to do, but not activities we have to do. there is a lot of difference between wanting to do something and having to do it. we only want to do those thing
