As a parent you might never guess how it can benefit your child. It helps your child:Develop Social SkillsAs children play pretend games, they explore relationships between family members, friends and coworkers and learn more about how people interact. Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients. Imaginative play helps of a game or to lose a pet, they are better able to help those in need. They bee more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate.Build Self-confidenceChildren have very little control over their lives. Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a super hero defending the planet is inspiring to children. It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.Promote Intellectual GrowthUsing imagination is the beginning of abstract thought. Children who can see a kings castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically(象征性地). This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numbers symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on.Practice Language SkillsKids who pretend with their friends do a lot of talking. This helps increase their vocabulary, improve sentence structure and develop munication skills.Get Rid of FearsPretending can help children get rid of their fears and worries. When children role-play the big, bad monsters under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesnt seem quite so big or so bad.21.

Skills in Playing pretend gamesBAlthough one might not think so as a result of the disadvantages, thousands and thousands of ads have shown advertising is of great importance to the society in which people live, either in the United Kingdom, or in many other parts of the world .Advertising is necessary as a means of municating with others, of telling them about the goods and services that are offered, and of which most of them would never get to hear at all if it were not for advertising. And advertising does a great deal to a rising standard of living conditions.In talking about advertisement, one should not think only a mercial on television, or an advertisement in the newspaper or magazines andin the sense of municationeven the spoken or written words of salesmen. After all, the roots of advertising are to be found in the market place in the ancient times.For many years it was thought that it was not enough to just produce goods and supply services. It is only more recently that people came to understand the production of goods would be a waste of resources unless those goods can be sold at fair price within a reasonable time period. In the petitive society in which we live, it is very important that we go out and sell what we have to offer, and advertising plays an important part, whether selling at home or in export market. Around 2 percent of the UK national product is spent on advertising. But it must be thought that this advertising tries to sell goods to customers who do not buy them. Of course, advertising does try to catch the eyes of the buyer, but if the product one has bought does not match what the advertisement had described, it is extremely unlikely that the goods will sell well.25. According to the text, advertising is important to_. A. every person in the worldB. people with a high standard of livingC. some famous paniesD. a large number of people in the world26.What is the earliest advertisement in history?A. Shop window show and wrapping of the goods.B Advertisements on TVC face-to-face talks between sellers and buyersD Products in many newspapers and magazines27. The writer tries to tell us that goods will sell well if _.A advertisements are well designedB enough money is spent on advertisingC. they are of high quality and well wrappedD advertisements mirror the true valueCWhen I was in the fifth grade and Mr. Gardner asked a question, my hand would often shoot up in enthusiasm. After giving me a few opportunities, he would try to give other students a chance. My hand, though, would remain in the air, and after some time, Id start waving it around. Then, there was the time I entered drumming classes. But all we were allowed to do in the first class was practice one beat over and over again. I never went back.I would have done terribly in the Stanford Marshmallow(果浆软糖) Experiment. In this classic study, researchers gave children a choice between one marshmallow right away and two later. The results showed that those who could wait 15 minutes ended up scoring 210 points higher on the SAT, an examination that American high school students take before they go to college. So clearly, delaying(延迟的) gratification or bearing up under pain have their benefits. It needs patience, which keeps us from being stuck to ideas formed previously, and helps us let go of our strong desire for consequences. We e to accept that we dont always or immediately know what is best, and learn to recognize that our reality is in constant changes. Patience improves our understanding of deeper truths and helps us expand our views.The journey of patience is rooted in knowing that our present reality will finally give way to changes. But changes wont always happen when we think they should, and patience with ourselves es from accepting that there are things we can control and things we cant. And though we must make great efforts to keep pushing the boundaries of our awareness and to improve our ability to rest in fort in the present moment, how fast we develop isnt up to us.That same fifth grader who couldnt wait to speak out answers now sees the value of meeting questions with a heart of patience. 28. Why did the author wave his hand around in class?A. He wanted to entertain himself.B. He tried to show his impatience.C. He was making fun of his fellow students. D. He wanted to give his fellow students a chance.29. Whats the purpose of the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment? A. To test childrens concentration levels.B. To test whether children have sweet teeth.C. To test patience and its potential advantages.D. To test the bond between patience and desire.30. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “gratification” in Para. 3?A. Progress. B. Patience. C. Assistance. D. Satisfaction.31. What is the main reason for people to have patience according to the text?A. Constant changes. B. Present reality.C. An absence of self-control. D. A strong desire for consequences.DNext time youre planning to go out for a relaxing walk with your MP3 player, be sure to check the weather forecast first. Summer is the prime time for lightning strikes, a fact that Jason Bunch, a teen from Castle Rock, Colo., learned the hard way. A couple of summers ago, he was mowing（割草）grass while listening to some Metallica on his iPod. Although there wasnt any rain falling on Bunch, he did hear distant thunder. Bunch was then struck by lightning, which seemed to travel through his music player, blowing out his eardrums and leaving him with burns where the device（设备）and its power lines were close to his body.Devices such as MP3 players dont attract lightning, says Dr. Mary Ann Cooper, an emergency room physician at the University of Illinois Medical Center in Chicago. However, they may change the pathway that lightnings energy follows in the human body. Lightning that might have passed rather harmlessly over the skin may react differently to the metal of these devices and cause damage.Rather than leaving your tunes at home, your best bet is watching out for lightning before it hits. Though people have been injured while using MP3 players in storms, Cooper says the devices main task “is keeping you from paying attention to thunder and the sky.” If youre caught in a storm, seek shelter.32. When does lightning happen most?A. Winter.B. Fall.C. Summer.D. Spring.33. What was the effect of this lightning strike on Jason Bunch?A. The lightning burned Bunch and blew out his eardrums.B. The lightning passed harmlessly over Bunchs skin.C. Bunch fell to the ground and couldnt move his upper body.D. Bunch was fine, but his iPod was burned by the lightning.34. What can you conclude about the safety of using MP3 players during a storm?A. MP3 players are desperately unsafe to use during a storm.B. iPods are safe to use during a storm, but other MP3 players are not.C. MP3 players increase your safety during a storm by directing lightning toward the ground.D. MP3 players bee unsafe to use if they keep you from paying attention during a storm.35. The primary purpose of this text is _.A. to describe the joy that Jason Bunch felt after he survived a lightning strikeB. to inform the risks of wearing an MP3 player during lightning strikesC. to tell a lighting emergency Jason Bunch met withD. to show that MP3 players are so popular among teenagers第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Teach kids About Setting Goals 36 It can bee an easy process for a lifetime if kids are taught goal setting at an early stage. They need to be offered a project to make them work on acplishing something personal.Set smart goals. A goal needs to be measurable, specific, realistic and timely in order to be effective. Kids prefer generalizing（泛化）when it es to goal setting. For example, one may want to be the best basketball player in the team. 37 What exactly does a goal like this mean? You need to ask them to be specific. Begin with scoring two baskets in each game (or however many; just something measurable!) so that they can continuously push the barriers to acplish greater goals.Write down goals. 38 Recent studies show that when goals are written down, the individual is likely to achieve them. 39 Kids have the habit of choosing goals that just seem impossible to achieve. You need to teach them the concepts of short and long-term goals and give your child reality checks.Set up review points. You can ask them to write their main goal on the poster and mention the steps they would take for attaining their goal. 40 It is important to help your children have their own checkpoint systems that actually work for them.A. Goals cant be acplished absolutely unless they are written down.B. This tip is supported by science as well.C. How is a goal like this measured?D. Ask them to track their progress once a week or month.E. Face goals that are not realistic.F. Is it a really big goal?G. It is essential for everybody, especially for kids, to set goals in life.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。An old man wanted to retire because of his poor healthThe 41 was in deciding which son would take his placeAs his children gathered to 42 his birthday, the father announced his 43 The old man took out two boxes and said to his two sons“Each of you take oneI want each of you to 44 it with what you believe to be the most 45 thing for our successful business 46 your choices, I will decide who will take 47 the business,” father saidThe next days the families and employees could sense the spirit of 48 between the boys.It was January 1st and the family 49 to celebrate again“Please 50 with me whats in your box!” father saidThe first son said, “Its outside on the truckThe box you gave me was much too 51 .” Father walked to the window and from that distance could see allWith a deep tone of 52 , he asked the other son，“What do you give?”The son 53 his father the boxThe old man looked inside and with great 54 looked up at his son .“Its 55 !” father said .“Are you telling me that you have found nothing valuable in our business?”“On the contrary,” he said“I could not place 56 I found most valuable in a boxHow does one measure the value of quality and honesty?
