I think you should stop! Your wallet is going to break! However, the beggar said he wanted one more handful. Fortune added one more handful and the wallet split.

They cut wood, carried water or heavy things, washed clothes, worked in the fields, etc. Now we have washing machines, cars and buses. Most of us dont grow vegetables, and parents usually drive their kids wherever they want to go.

Walk or run with the dog(If you havent got one, borrow one from a neighbour). Make and fly a kite. What other ideas can you come up with? You can do a lot of these things by yourself.

A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other peoples. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things: they learn to do without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle, compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not. If it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine(常规)work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he cant find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, and how to know what they know or do not know. （1）According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by . A . listening to skilled peoples adviceB . asking older people many questionsC . making mistakes and having them correctedD . doing what other people do（2）Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do? A . Give children correct answers.B . Allow children to make mistakes.C . Point Out childrens mistakes to them.D . Let children mark their own work.（3）According to the writer, teachers in school should . A . allow children to learn from each otherB . point out childrens mistakes whenever foundC . give children more book knowledgeD . correct childrens mistakes as soon as possible（4）The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are . A . different from learning other skillsB . the same as learning skillsC . more important than other skillsD . not really important skills四、 任务型阅读(共10分.每小题2分) (共1题；共10分)18. （10分）阅读理解 Long long ago，the youngest daughter of Emperor Yan went boating on the Eastern Sea. At first she had a good time，but later on she was too tired to swim when a strong wind rose on the sea and turned her boat upside down. She was thus drowned, but her spirit turned into a beautiful bird crying sadly in the sound “Jingwei, Jingwei”.Because she wanted to see her beloved father again and hated the sea so much，she put some stones into the sea day after day, without a rest, in order to change the sea into the land. From this story comes the saying “The bird Jingwei trying to fill the sea”. The story was a little sad. But it tells us something important. When we do anything, we have to work hard. Learning English is difficult but if you study hard, you can learn it well.（1）Why was the youngest daughter of Emperor Yan drowned? A . Because she was t
