D 2. A 3. B 4. D 5. CIf parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius (天才), they will cause a big problem. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which ambitious (雄心勃勃的) parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what the parent expects, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are ambitious in a reasonable way, the child may succeed in doing very well --- especially if the parents are very supportive of their child.Michael Lee Chao Tin is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50 kilometers a week for violin lessons. Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music, Michael’s father is a good trumpet (小号) player. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling.Micha el’s friend, Winston Chiu Fang Weng, however, is not so lucky. Although both his parents are successful musicians, they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. ―When I was your age, I used to win every competition I entered,‖ Winston’s father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.1. Which of the following mistakes are parents likely to make according to the passage?A) To neglect their child’s education.B) To help their child to be a genius.C) To make their child become a musician.D) To expect too much of their child.2. What should parents do in order to help their children succeed?A) They should understand and help their children in different times.B) They should try to have their own successful careers.C) They should arrange private lessons for their children.D) They should push the children into achieving a lot.3. Which of the following statements about Michael Lee’s parents is true?A) His father is a very poor player of trumpet.B) His parents help him in a proper way.C) His mother knows much about music.D) His parents are quite rich and have a car.4. Winston’s parents push their son so much that __________.A) he has already become a better musician than his fatherB) he has succeeded in a lot of competitionsC) he feels he cannot learn anything about music from themD) he is unhappy because he is not self-confident5. The two examples illustrate the principle that __________.A) parents who want their child to be musical should also be good musiciansB) successful parents often have unsuccessful childrenC) it is important to let children develop in the way they wantD) the more money spent on a child’s education, the better the child will do第 5 页共10 页第 6 页 共 10 页(二) 1. A 2. B 3. A 4. A 5. B The United States is full of automobiles. There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or even more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are a necessary part of life. Cars are used for business. They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they heave to drive in order to carry their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies. Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school buses are provided only when children live more than a mile from the school. When the children are too young to walk that far, their mothers take turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Monday, taking her own children and the neighbor’s children as well. Another mother drives on Tuesday, another on Wednesday, and so on. This is called forming a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work. More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer automobiles on the road and to use less gasoline. Parking is a great problem, and so is the traffic in and around cities.

Do you look in the refrigerator and the kitchen cupboards and make a list? Do you think about what you want to cook and then buy the food you need? Even if you do these things, the Supermarket make some of the decisions for you.Specialists in marketing have studied how to make people buy more food in a supermarket. They do all kinds of things that you don’t even notice. For example, the simple, ordinary food that everybody must buy, like bread, milk, flour and vegetable oil, is spread all over the store. You have to walk by all the more interesting—and more expensive –things in order to find what you need. The more expensive food is in package with bright-colored pictures. This food placed at eye level so you see it and want to buy it. The things that you have to buy anyway are usually located on higher or lower shelf. However, candy and other things that children like are on lower shelves. One study showed that when a supermarket moved four products from floor to eye level, it sold 78 percent more.Another study showed that for every minute a person in a supermarket after the first half hour, she or he spends $50. If some one stays forty minutes, the supermarket has an additional $5.00. So the store has a comfortable temperature in summer and winter, and it plays soft music. It is a pleasant place for people to stay – and spend more money.31.
