Kids are far better than adults at learning how to speak multiple languages. Research now shows that very young infants might have some of the best language skills of all．

A new study suggests that babies between 4 and 6 months old can tell the difference between two languages just by looking at the speaker's face．They don't need to hear word．Sometimes between 6-8 months of age, babies raised in homes where just one language is spoken lose this ability．Babies from bilingual(雙語的) homes, on the other hand, keep the face-reading ability until they're at least 8 months old．
Researchers in Canada studied 36 babies from English-speaking families．Twelve of the babies were 4 months old,12 were 6 months old, and the rest were 8 months old．Each baby sat on his or her mother's lap and watched video clips(電影片斷) of a woman talking．The woman was fluent in both English and French．In some clips, she read from a storybook in English．In other clips, she read in French．In all of the videos there was no sound．
【小題1】What is mainly discussed in the passage ?

A．Language teaching．
B．Language learning
C．Babies and language learning
D．Parents and language teaching
【小題2】What do the underlined word in the second paragraph refer to ?
A．Two or more．B．Foreign.C．difficult.D．At least one.
【小題3】We can know from the passage that    .
A．a(chǎn)ll the babies in the study are of the same age．
B．the babies could hear the woman's voice while watching the videos．
C．the stories the woman read were written in either French or German．
D．it's still unknown how babies could tell the difference between languages．
【小題4】Why did the 8-month-old pay no attention when the language was changed ?
A．They had lost the ability to distinguish different languages．
B．They were too tired to open their eyes and fell asleep．
C．They couldn't hear what the speaker was talking about．
D．They had lost the interest in bilingual speakers．

Why Exercise Is Cool?

1. Exercise Strengthens Muscles

Did you ever do a push-up or swing across the monkey bars at the playground?    1.    By using your muscles to do powerful things, you can make them stronger. For older teens and adults, this kind of workout can make muscles bigger, too.

2.    2.  

Can you touch your toes easily without yelling ouch? Most kids are pretty flexible, which means that they can bend and stretch their bodies without much trouble. Being flexible is having “full range of motion,” which means you can move your arms and legs freely without feeling tightness or pain.

3. Exercise Keeps the Balance

       3.  Your body needs a certain amount of calories every day just to function, breathe, walk around, and do all the basic stuff.   4.    If you’re not very active, your body won’t need as many calories.

Whatever your calorie need is, if you eat enough to meet that need, your body weight will stay about the same. If you eat more calories than your body needs, it may be stored as extra fat.

4. Exercise Makes You Feel Good

It feels good to have a strong, flexible body that can do all the activities you enjoy—like running, jumping, and playing with your friends. It’s also fun to be good at something, like scoring a basket, hitting a home run, or perfecting a dive.

But you may not know that exercising can actually put you in a better mood.   5.   It’s just another reason why exercise is cool!

A. So you want to do some aerobic (有氧的) exercise right now?

B. Food gives your body fuel in the form of calories, which are a kind of energy.

C. When you exercise, your brain releases a chemical, which may make you feel happier.

D. Those are exercises that can build strength.

E. Exercise Makes You Flexible

F. Exercise Makes Your Heart Happy

G. But if you’re active, your body needs an extra measure of calories or energy.

Kids' health: Four steps for fighting stress

Everybody gets stressed from time to time. 1 Some ways of dealing with stress

- like screaming or hitting someone - don't solve（解決）much. But other ways, like talking  to someone you trust, can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.

Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed:

(1)   Get support. When you need help, reach out to the people who care about you. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a parent or other relatives. 2 They might have had similar problems, such as dealing with a test, or the death of a beloved pet.

(2)   Don't take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves. Oh, dear, that's not a good idea. Remember that there are always people to help you. Don't take it out on yourself. 3

(3)   Try to solve the problem. After you're calm and you have support from adults and friends, it's time to get down to business. 4Even if you can't solve it all, you can solve a piece of it.

(4)   Be positive. Most stress is temporary (暫時的). Remember stress does go away, especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it.

These steps aren't magic, but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time, you'll help yourself feel better even faster. 5

A．Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation.

B． Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them.

C． Different people feel stress in different ways.

D．Ah, it feels so good when the stress is gone.

E.  You need to figure out what the problem is.

F.  And don't forget about your friends.

G. Then, find a way to calm down.
