CMy granddaughter, 10, was very happy the day before yesterday because her mother and the mother of one of her classmates took them to a park and a Pizza Hut （比萨饼屋）to celebrate Children’s Day. For a whole day, the two girls played heartily – no homework, no extra-curricular(课外) skills training. The happy life lasted only for one day. Yesterday, everything returned to normal: doing homework till late at night and going over lessons learned at last weekend’s English and “ Olympic mathematics” (数学奥赛) courses.Every time I went to my daughter’s house in the evening, I saw my granddaughter sitting by the small desk in her room doing math exercises or writing a compositions given by her teacher. On the white wall behind the desk are some words she wrote. One sentence reads: “ Why is the exercise endless?”Poor girl!Although teachers have stopped giving after-school homework to primary school children, parents have been forcing their kids to take part in different kinds of extra-curricular training courses-learning English, painting, music instrument (乐器), weiqi, “ Olympic mathematics” and so on, every Saturday and Sunday.Are these extra-curricular courses really necessary in children’s education? The answer is certainly “ No”. Take the so-called “ Olympic mathematics” for example. These courses are very difficult for the children to understand. Often, they are difficult even for adults (成年人).( ) 61. The writer’s granddaughter celebrated her Children’s Day by _____.A. playing all day B. doing nothingC. having a party D. going over lessons
Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to theinformation given in the passage.Secret SantasOn Christmas morning, Linda wakes up, and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them. Linda has never met the children, but that’s all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says."It's an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous (匿名的) basis," says Linda."It brings a whole new meaning to the holidays."Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as a member of the American Women's Club of Toronto. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and community service.To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that's struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning lady in a nursing home."The list is always heartbreaking. They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite, asking for basic clothes or simple toys," she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents.Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list--one that didn't include the basics. "Every child should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children and a video game system for the youngest."I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this," says Linda. "Pay attention to what's going on in your own backyard--no matter where you live."The joy of giving as secret Santas is much sweeter when the gift is anonymous.81. What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have?(No more than 5 words) (2 marks)
AMany children feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends．They be- lieve that their family members don-t know them as well as their friends． In large families， it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for some ideas．It is very important for children to have one or more good friends．Even when they are not with their friends， they usually spend a lot of time talking on the phone with their friends．This communication is very important to children’s growth， because friends can discuss some-thing， but it's difficult to discuss it with family members． However， most parents like to choose friends for their children Some parents even don-t allow their children to meet their good friends．Who chooses your friends? What do your parents think of your friends?Your answers are welcome．( )21． Many children think ________ can understand them better．A． friendsB． brothersC． teachersD． parents

共用题干Early or Later Day Care The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby maintains that separation from the parents during the sensitive “attachment”period from birth to three may scar a child's personality and predispose to emotional problems in later life.Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlby's work that children should not be subjected to day care before the age of three because of the parental sepa-ration it entails,and many people do believe this. But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion. Firstly,anthropologists point out that the insulated love affair between children and parents found in modern societies does not usually exist in traditional societies.For example,in some tribal societies,such as the Ngoni,the father and mother of a child did not rear their infant a-lone—far from it .Secondly,common sense tells us that day care would not be so widespread to-day if parents,care—takers found children had problems with it. Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out,and even if they were,the results would be certain to be complicat-ed and controversial.Thirdly,in the last decade there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care,and they have uniformly reported that day care had a neural or slightly positive effect on children's development. But tests that have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue. But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects.The possi- bility that such care might lead to,say,more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be explored by the use of statistics.Whatever the long-term effects,parents sometimes find the immediate effects difficult to deal with.Children under three are likely to protest at leaving their parents and show unhappiness.At the age of three or three and a half almost all children find the transition to nursery easy,and this is undoubtedly why more and more parents make use of child care at this time.The matter,then,is far from clear-cut,though experience and available evi- dence indicate that early care is reasonable for infants. Which of the following statements would Bowlby support?A: Children under three get used to the life at nursery schools more readily than children o-ver three.B: The first three years of one's life is extremely important to the later development of per-sonality.C: Early day care can delay the occurrence of mental illness in children.D: Statistical studies should be carried out to assess the positive effect of day care for chil- dren at the age of three or older.

A number of parents prefer not to send their children to school.______(46)There are about 300,000 home-schoolers in the United States today.Some parents prefer teaching their children at home because they do not believe that public schools teach the correct religious values;others believe they can provide a better educational experience for their children by teaching them at home.______(47)David Guterson and his wife teach their three children at home.Guterson says that his children learn very differently from children in school.______(48)For example,when there is heavy snowfall on a winter day,it may start a discussion or reading about climate,snow removal （去除）equipment , Alaska , polar bears（北极熊）,and winter tourism.
