Writing this passage，the writers main purpose is to A. explain the possible causes of foreign accent syndromeB. warn people not to be at the risk of experiencing a strokeC. introduce foreign accent syndrome and some related informationD. tell a story of an injured woman during the Second World WarBIn the school term many parents take on the role of drivers as they drive their children from one lesson to another. It can be understood that many of us want our children to have a little taste of everything, from organized sports to music, dance and more. But we overdo it, leaving our children feeling a little tired, and according to parent educator Diane Loisie, its their school work that suffers the most. “After school, if theyre busy in a number of sporting events, and besides they need to do their homework, then the time theyll feel sleepy is in the classroom. Your child needs free time. So if youre filling up that after school time, then its during the day that theyre going to be taking a break. ” Professor Claire McDermott agrees that theres a lot to be gained from sometimes putting those planned lessons and activities away. “Relaxing time is important for children. Its time just to do the things they want to do. A child can go up to their room, or they can play around. It doesnt look like useful time; parents certainly wouldnt be saying Wow, are they ever learning things now? But this relaxing time gives both the body and the brain just a wonderful chance to relax after a day. It helps a child prepare for sleep, but it also helps to understand the learning thats gone on that day. ” Its hard to prevent signing our kids up for some activities and lessons. After all, many of us want our children to have a head start in life and the chance to join in great activities in the arts or sports is a part of that. However, Loisie feels that in the long run most children feel better with just a few key activities because it gives them an opportunity to master them. “When we get our children in too many activities because we want our children to experience everything, then what were doing is setting them up not to be good at one thing or gaining a skill. ” So choose your childrens activities wisely. It may be one of the best things youve ever done for your kids and for the family driver!60. What should we think of childrens playing around aimlessly? A. It is simple. B. It is helpful. C. It is a bad habit. D. It is a waste of time.61. What is the biggest disadvantage for children to attend too many lessons after school? A. They can get bored easily about everything. B. They might have no time to do the homework. C. They might not pay much attention to learning. D. They cannot easily focus on learning during the day.62. Why should parents limit the activities our children attend? A. Because children have no time.B. Because children cannot learn many things. C. Because children do not have enough sleep. D. Because children cannot focus on too many activities. 63. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Dont be childrens drivers after school. B. Choose activities for your children wisely. C. Make your children learn as much as possible. D. Let children learn something from various subjects.CInsurance(保险) companies provide a service to the community by protecting it against expected and unexpected disasters. Before an insurance company will agree to insure anything, it collects accurate figures about the risk. It knows, for example, that the risk of a man being killed in a plane accident is less than the risk he takes in crossing a busy road. This enables it to quote(报价) low figures for travel insurance. Sometimes the risk may be high, as in motor-racing or mountaineering. Then the company charges a much higher price. If too many climbers have accidents, the price rises further. If the majority of climbers fall off mountains, the company will refuse to insure them.An ordinary householder may wish to protect his home against fire or his property(财产) against burglary(入室行窃). A shopkeeper may wish to insure against theft. In normal cases, the company will check its statistics(数据) and quote a premium(保险费). If it is suspicious, it may refuse to quote. If it insures a shop and then receives a suspicious claim, it will investigate the claim as a means of protecting itself against false claims. It is not unknown for a businessman in debt to burn down his own premises so that he can claim much money from his insurance company. He can be sure that the fire will be investigated most carefully. Insurance companies also accept insurance against disaster in the air or on the sea. Planes and ships are very expensive, so a large premium is charged, but a reduction is given to companies with an accident-free record.Every week, insurance companies receive premium payments from customers. These payments can form a very large total running into millions of dollars. The company does not leave the money in the bank. It invests (投资) in property, shares ,farms and even paintings and stamps. Its aim is to get the best possible return on its investment. This is not as greedy as it may seem since this is one way by which it can keep its premiums down and continue to make a profit while being of service to the community.64. The main idea of the first paragraph is that _. A. insurance companies protect the community against disasters B. insurance companies often collect accurate figures about the risk C. insurance companies base their decisions on the risk involved D. insurance companies charge different prices in the same cases65. The insurance company will usually investigate a suspicious claim to _. A. refuse to quote the insurance fee B. make sure that the claim is reasonable C. decide how much the company should pay D. find out when the accident happened66. The underlined word premises in Paragraph 2 most probably means “_.” A. land and buildings B. insurance contract(合同) C. debt papers D. financial papers67. The purpose of this passage is to _. A. explain how insurance companies operate B. encourage people to invest in insurance companies C. persuade people to insure against unexpected disastersD. advise people how to insure their life and propertyDBe careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think.A border collie named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩).In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldnt see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words.In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew
