Ashcombe Primary School in Weston super Mare Somerset has told parents that cards declaring love can be confusing for children under the age of 11 who are still emotionally and socially developing In his February newsletter 简讯 Peter Turner head teacher warned that any cards found in school would be confiscated He wrote We do not wish to see any Valentine s Day cards in school this year Some children and parents encourage a lot of talks about boyfriends and girlfriends We believe that such ideas should wait until children are mature enough emotionally and socially to understand the commitment involved in having or being a boyfriend or girlfriend Mr Turner said any families wanting to support the Valentine s Day concept should send cards in the post or deliver them to home addresses by hand His views were supported by Ruth Rice 46 who has twins Harriet and Olivia 9 at the school She said Children at that age shouldn t really be thinking about Valentine s Day and they should be concentrating on their schoolwork They are at an age when they are easily influenced and most parents including myself are with Mr Turner She added The cards caused too much competition If someone gets a card and another doesn t then he or she will be disappointed However Rajeev Takyar 40 who sells newspapers and has two children Jai 11 and Aryan 5 at the school said he was genuinely outraged He said There are schools that have banned conkers 康克戏 and snowballs and now Valentine s Day cards I think banning the cards stops children from having social skills How are they going to learn about relationships otherwise It s ridiculous Alec Suttenwood founder of the Anti Political Correctness Group said of the ban It s totally ridiculous Young children just send the cards to each other as friends and to their parents It s just a bit of harmless fun There is no difference between this and Mother s or Father s Day 16 Valentine s Day cards may cause confusion among young children because 用心 爱心 专心 A they are too young to understand what love is B teachers haven t taught them how to make friends C children shouldn t learn about social relationships D students talk too much about boyfriends and girlfriends 17 The underlined word confiscated in Paragraph 3 can probably be replaced by A collectedB destroyed C taken awayD burnt away 18 Ruth Rice was in favor of Mr Turner s view in that A children like to compare Valentine s Day cards B children should focus their mind on their lessons C sending holiday cards wastes both time and money D making friends has a negative influence on children 19 Which statement is TRUE according to the text A Most of English parents want children to have fun B Children should learn how to develop social skills C English schools don t allow students to play games D Some parents think it unreasonable to ban the cards 20 What is the best title of the text A School Bans Valentine s Day Cards B Shall We Send Valentine s Day Cards C Different Opinions on Valentine s Day Cards D Parents Concern About Valentine s Day Cards B B Children are often far more gifted than what their parents or teachers can realize IQ tests do not measure creative talents By depending on them to measure intelligence therefore we miss out on the talents of many of our most gifted youngsters Most children start life with valuable creative potential Unfortunately many of them have it knocked out of them so to speak by the time they reach the 4th grade It is not that parents and teachers deliberately squelch 限制 creativity or rather they fail to recognize it By simply observing the child at work or at play you may detect creativity if you 用心 爱心 专心 look for the following key signs Curiosity The child s questioning is persistent and purposeful He is not content with given explanations and he would rather dig under the surface Flexibility If one approach doesn t work the child quickly thinks of another Sensitivity to Problem He is quick to see gaps in information He is sensitive to contradictions between prior rules and what he hears or reads Self feeling He has a feeling of being somebody in particular He is self motivated self directed and can work alone for long periods provided it s on his own project Originality He has surprising uncommon interesting ideas His drawings and stories have a style that marks them as his own Insight He has easy access to realms 领域 of the mind that non creative people visit only in their dreams He toys with ideas that easily come to him Qualities like these count very little in IQ tests which measure memory vocabulary mathematical ability and general reasoning These abilities are valuable and the creative child does usually have them However the child with a so called genius IQ of 180 is in reality no more likely to be a genius than the child with a slightly above average IQ of 120 In fact evidence suggests that some children with high IQs may develop memory and logical reasoning powers at the expense of insight imagination and adventurous qualities that are essential to geniuses 21 The main purpose of the passage is to tell us A why IQ tests are not accurate B to encourage creativity in children C no to squelch creativity in children D the difference between intelligence and talents 22 The author believes that IQ tests mainly measure A creative potentialB talents C intelligenceD general reasoning 23 The passage doesn t clearly state but implies that A the education nowadays does
