(A)你最喜歡什么顏色? Do you like yellow, orange and red? You do, you must be a person full of hopeful happy feeling about life.Do you like grey and blue? Then maybe you are quiet, and you would rather go after than go before.And sometimes you feel unhappy.If you love green, you are strong-minded.You wish to do(B)________ well and want other people to see you are successful.At least this is what psychologists tell us.They tell us that we don't choose our favourite colour as we grow up.If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
A yellow room makes us feel happier and more comfortable than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and gladness to the saddest winter day.(C)Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have few accidents when their machines and painted orange rather than black or dark grey.Remember, then, that(D)if you feel low, you can brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colourful things.Remember also that you will know your friends better when you(E)________ what colours they like and dislike.And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose something in different colours.

閱讀下面短文,然后根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。
Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy.They feel heavy pressures(壓力)from their parents to do well in school.Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life.Though this may be good ideas for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students because they are not gifted(有天賦的)enough.
As it is reported, a number of students killed themselves.Others try to get the feelings of taking drugs(毒品).Some join the groups of trouble-makers and turn to crime(犯罪).Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hopes.Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don't want to go to school any longer.They become dropouts(輟學(xué)學(xué)生).
It is surprising that most Japanese parents are worried about their children.They do not help them in any way.Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers' work to help their children.To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends.They only help students to pass exams and never teach students any real sense(判斷)of the world.It is a great surprise that almost three quarters of middle school students have been to such kind of schools.
Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students' hair to their clothes and the things in their school bags.Child psychologists(心理學(xué)家)now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students.Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from the wrong, how to show love for others, even for their parents.
1.Why are most students always being told by their parents to study harder?
_______________________________
2.Did many students failed in the exams?
_______________________________
3.Which school do parents send their children to?
_______________________________
4.How many students have been in such kind of schools?

5.Are strict rules harmful to the feelings of the students or helpful?

閱讀下面短文,然后根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。
What is the cleverest machine in history? If you're anything like nine out of ten people in the world, you'll say it's a computer, a machine with mathematical logic(數(shù)學(xué)邏輯)that can reason(推理)in the same way as humans.
Alan Mathison Turing never expected to be the father of a machine with such a title.
He was born in London in 1912, the second of his parents' two sons.His parents worked in India while Turing and his brother spent their childhoods in Britain.
Turing's loneliness during this time may have led to his lifelong interest in how the human mind works.He believed that the mind creates its own world when the real world is not acceptable to it.At 13, he already showed a talent for mathematics.He wasn't perfect though.His teachers said his work was hard to read.
After graduating from Cambridge University, he remained there as a teacher.At that time, his interest in the human mind led him to draw a machine.
In 1937, Turing wrote a report about his machine.However, few people understand what he was talking about.But the report changed Turing's whole life.After the start of World War Ⅱ, the British Government ordered him to serve in a special department.The task was to break codes used by the Nazis(納粹).
Turing's talent shone in this top-secret work.He played a major role in designing an early computer like machines that could decipher(破譯)Nazi codes at high speed.After the war, he returned to Cambridge, and built a machine based on his ideas from 1937.
1.Where does Alan Mathison Turing come from?
_________________________________
2.What did Turing do in 1937?
_________________________________
3.What does the sentence‘If you're anything like nine out of ten people in the world mean’?
_________________________________
4.What was Turing interested in after he graduated from university?
_________________________________
5.What could the machine that Turing helped to do during World War Ⅱ?

閱讀下面短文,然后根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。
Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them.Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there's no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment.You only have to share your children's curiosity(好奇).Finally, listen to their questions.I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job.The children asked me“textbook questions”about schooling, salary(薪水)and whether I liked my job.When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence.Finally I said,“Now that we've finished your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”
After a long pause, a boy raised his hand,“Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢)eat? When I try eating leaves like that.I get a stomachache.Why?”
This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.
Secondly, give them time to think.Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think.When adults increase their“wait time”to three seconds or more, children give more logical(符合邏輯的), complete and creative answers.
Thirdly, watch your language.Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don't jump in with“That's right”or“Very good”.These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior(行為).But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over.Instead, keep things going by saying,“That's interesting”or“I'd never thought of it that way before”, or coming up with more questions or ideas.
Never push a child to“Think”.It doesn't make sense, children are always thinking, without your telling them to.What's more, this can turn a conversation into a performance.The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target for your disagreement.
Lastly, show; don't tell.Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program.Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大鏡), and they'll understand why you want them to wash before dinner.Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸發(fā)), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.
1.What's the most important thing for adults to do when children are natural scientists, and to raise their interest?
________________________________
2.What can replace the word“l(fā)ist”in the last sentence of the first paragraph?
________________________________
3.How long should adults wait so that children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way?
________________________________
4.What can we say to encourage children in a science discussion?
________________________________
5.Which is a better way for adults, tell their children or encourage their children to ask questions of their own?
________________________________
