In a time of low academic (學術的) achievement by children in the United States, many Americans are turning to Japan,a country of high academic achievement and economic success,for possible answers. However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction.In one investigation, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education. Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents (答問卷者) listed "to give children a good start academically" as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices.Toprepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond,Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as persistence, concentration, and the ability to function as a member of a group. The majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.
In the recent comparison of Japanese and American pre??school education, 91 percent of Japanese respondents chose providing children with a group experience as one of their top three reasons for asociety to have preschools. 62 percent of the more individually oriented (強調(diào)個性發(fā)展的) Americans listed group experience as one of their top three choices. An em??phasis on the importance of the group seen in Japanese early childhood education continues into elementary school education.
Like in America, there is diversity (多樣性) in Japanese early childhood education. Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential (潛力) development. In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools.
Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children's chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities. Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.
25. We learn from the first paragraph that many Americans believe ________.
A. Japanese parents pay more attention to preschool education than American parents
B. Japan's economic success is a result of its scientific achievements
C. Japanese preschool education emphasizes academic in??struction
D. Japan's higher education is better than theirs
26. Most American respondents believe that preschools should also attach importance to ________.
A. problem solving B. group experience
C. parental guidance D. individually oriented development
27. In Japan's preschool education, the focus is on ________.
A. preparing children academically B. developing children's artistic interests
C. tapping children's potential D. shaping children's character
28. Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university-based kindergartens?
A. They can do better in their future studies.
B. They can gain more group experience there.
C. They can be individually oriented when they grow up.
D. They can have better chances of getting a first-rate edu??cation.

When talking about French literature, Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) is often the first name that comes to mind for Chinese readers.
The master of short story-telling was brought in Normandy(諾曼底) in northwest France. In 1869, he went to study law in Pairs but one year later, aged 20, he volunteered to serve in the army during the Franco-Prussian War(普法戰(zhàn)爭).
Returning to Pairs in 1871，Maupassant worked as a civil servant for eight years. His rich experience offered good subject matter for his writing. And he learned a lot through spending time with other French literary masters such as Gustave Flaubert. By 1880, Maupassant had established himself in the literary world with his first short story, “Ball of Fat”.
Over the course of his life, he wrote 300 short stories and six novels, using sad tales of Norman peasant life, the Franco-Prussian War and the fashionable life of Pairs as his subject matter.
He presents his characters in a simple and objective way, describing them as unhappy victims(犧牲品) of their greed(貪婪), desire or vanity(虛榮).
During his final years of life, Maupassant suffered from mental illness. He died in 1893 at the age of 43.

I take the firm position that parents do not owe their children a college education. If they can afford it, they can certainly send them to the best universities. But they must not feel guilty if they can't. If the children really want to go, they'll find a way. There are plenty of loans (貨款)and scholarships for the bright and eager ones who can't afford to pay.
When children grow up and want to get married, their parents do not owe them a down payment on a house. They do not have the duty to baby-sit their grandchildren. If they want to do it, it must be considered a favor not an obligation.
Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.
One of their obligations is to give their children a personal worth. A child who is constantly made to feel stupid and unworthy, constantly compared with brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins will become so unsure, so afraid of failing that he (or she) won't try at all. Of course they should be properly corrected when they do wrong, but it's often better to let children learn their mistake by themselves in time. All our parents should do is to trust them, respect them, tolerate(寬容) them and give them chances to try and fail. They must learn to stand failure. When criticisms(批評) are really needed, they should be balanced with a smile and a kiss. That is the way children learn.
Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means being respectful to elders, to teachers, and to the law. The best way to teach such values is by deed. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have difficulty laughing and loving.
No child asks to be born, If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something.
9. According to the author, ________.
A. parents must support their children even after they married as a duty.
B. if they don't afford, parents should take loans to send their children to go to college.
C. parents needn't feel guilty if they are unable to send them to university.
D. parents should give their children a down payment on a house.
10. The author mainly talks about in this massage________.
A. the duties of the parents
B. the best way to teach their children.
C. the reason why children feel stupid and unworthy.
D. why parents owe their children something.
11. What does the underlined word “obligation” mean in the second paragraph?
A. duty B. debt C. right D. blame
12. According to the author what should parents do when children make mistakes?
A. criticize and correct them immediately.
B. let children learn their mistake by themselves in time.
C. tolerate them and tell them not to do that again.
D. compare them with brighter brothers, sisters.
答案與解析：
9. C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第1段第 2 句 If they can afford it, they can certainly send them to the best universities. But they must not feel guilty if they can't 可知如果父母能送孩子上大學，他們當然送孩子上最好的大學，如果不能，他們也不必有負罪感。因此可推知答案 C。
10. A 主旨大意題。文章前兩段說父母沒有送孩子大學教育的義務、沒有支付房子定金的義務，也沒有看孫子的義務。然后第3、4段闡述父母應盡的責任和義務。因此可推斷本文主要談論的是父母的義務。故答案為A。
11. A 猜測詞義。根據(jù)第2段第 2 句 They do not have the duty to baby-sit their grandchildren 可知父母沒有責任照顧孫子。因此可知下句 If they want to do it, it must be considered a favor not an obligation 如果他們想照顧孫子，要把它看成是恩惠而不是義務。故答案為 A。
12. B 事實細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第4段中的 Of course they should be properly corrected when they do wrong, but it's often better to let children learn their mistake by themselves in time 可知答案為 B。

Millions of women use cosmetics, often called “make-up”. The cosmetics industry is one of the biggest in the world. Most large stores sell cosmetics, and there are always shops at airports selling them cheaply.The word “cosmetics” refers to anything that people put on their faces to make them look better. Lipstick, face powder and cream, and eye make-up are the most popular. Although more women than men use cosmetics, there are cosmetics for men as well as women.
Some people even have cosmetic surgery to make their faces look different. They have the shape of their noses and eyes changed.
The most widely used cosmetic is probably lipstick, as many women who do not wear any other make-up will often put on a little lipstick.
Lipstick is made by mixing together different oils and colors. This mixture is then allowed to get hard and is cut into the shape of a small pencil. When a woman presses the lipstick to her lips, the end of it becomes soft, and some of it sticks to her lips, giving them extra color.
Cosmetics were probably first used in India, but it was the Egyptians, six thousand years ago, who made the most use of them. Rich Egyptian women painted their eyes green and black. They used a red color to paint pretty designs on their fingernails, the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet. Pictures of Cleopatra always show her wearing a lot of make-up.
The Romans also used cosmetics. They liked to make their skin very white and to paint their eyes. They also used a kind of lipstick.
In England at one time, very rich women had baths in milk to make their skin beautiful. They also used a lot of sweet-smelling powder to stop people smelling their bodies, which were often very dirty because they did not wash very often or change their clothes.
At one time, some cosmetics were not safe. They were bad for the skin, and some of the lipsticks and powders that people used were even poisonous. Nowadays, people in the cosmetics industry take great care to make sure that everything they use is completely safe.
5. What does the word “Cosmetics” refer to ________.
A. lipstick B. make-up C. creams D. surgery
6. According to the passage people use cosmetics ________.
A. only at airports
B. only to color their feet
C. to make themselves look better
D. instead of surgery
7. From the passage we know that in earlier times ________.
A. cosmetics were never used in milk baths
B. cosmetics were never used on the eyes
C. cosmetics were never used on the skin
D. sometimes cosmetics were harmful to the skin
8. Which of the following statements is true?

B
How long can a person live without breathing? Probably for only four to six minutes. The air we breathe in supplies the oxygen(氧) that is necessary for keeping every part of the body alive. And the brain, which itself controls breathing, is the first to suffer(受苦) if oxygen is lacking(缺乏). If no air enters the lungs(肺), the heart will continue to beat for a little longer, supplying the blood to the brain and other parts of the body. But soon, the supply of oxygen already in the blood is used up.
First, the patient loses conciousness(知覺), because the brain is no longer getting enough oxygen to work. Then lack of oxygen in the heart causes it to stop beating. Without oxygen ,the brain can survive(持續(xù)) undamaged for only about four minutes. The heart may survive for as long as 12 minutes. But within six minutes the person will almost certainly be dead.
1.The oxygen that our body needs comes from________.
A. the air we breathe in B. the moving blood
C .the beating heart D. the working brain
2.If no air enters the lungs,________.
A. the heart will stop beating immediately
B. the brain is the first to suffer
C. the blood can continue to move a long time
D. a person will stop breathing
3.According to the passage we can conclude________.
A. the heart is more important than the brain
B. the brain can continue to work a little longer than the heart without oxygen
C. the brain stops working before the heart does without oxygen
D. if a person stops breathing it means he is dead
4.In which order will the following happen without oxygen?
a. The heart stops beating. b. The brain stops working.
c. A person is dead. d. A person loses conciousness .
A .b, a, d, c B. a, b, d, c
C. d, a, b, c D. d, b, c, a
