Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET._Where one stage of child development
13、 has been left out, or not sufficiently experienced, the child may have to go back and capture the experience of it. A good home makes this possible, for example, by providing the opportunity for the child to play with a clockwork car or toy railway train up to any age if he still needs to do so. Th
14、is principle, in fact, underlies all psychological treatment of children in difficulties with their development, and is the basis of work in child clinics. The beginnings of discipline are in the nursery. Even the youngest baby is taught by gradual stages to wait for food, to sleep and wake at regul
15、ar intervals and so on. If the child feels the world around him is a warm and friendly one, he slowly accepts its rhythm and accustoms himself to conforming to its demands. Learning to wait for things, particularly for food, is a very important element in upbringing, and is achieved successfully onl
16、y if too great demands are not made before the child can understand them. Every parent watches eagerly the childs acquisition of each new skillthe first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural lear
17、ning rate, but this can set up dangerous feeling of failure and states of anxiety in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, t
18、hough, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural zest for life and his desire to find out new things for himself. Learning together is a fruitful source of relationship between children and parents. By playing together, parents learn more about th
19、eir children and children learn more from their parents. Toys and games which both parents and children can share are an important means of achieving this cooperation. Building-block toys, jigsaw puzzles and crossword are good examples.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness or indulgence
20、 towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters; others are severe over times of coming home at night, punctuality for meals or personal cleanliness. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the childs own
21、happiness and well-being.(分数:10.00)(1).The principle underlying all treatment of developmental difficulties in children_.(分数:2.00)A.is to send them to clinicsB.is in the provision of clockwork toys and trainsC.offers recapture of earlier experiencesD.is to capture them before they are sufficiently e

Yet their
25、 march into the world of paid work continues to cause suspicion. One recent survey found that 48 percent of Americans believe that preschoolers suffer if their mothers work, while another found that 42 percent of employed parents think that working mothers care more about succeeding at work than mee
26、ting their childrens needs. The kids are all right. Studies conducted by the University of Michigan have consistently demonstrated that a childs social or academic competence does not depend on whether a mother is employed. In my research four out of five children told me that having a working mothe
27、r was their preferred arrangement. My study found that children with working mothers are no more likely to drop out, take drugs, break the law, or experiment with sex prematurely than children with non-employed mothers. Children have taken their mothers example to heart. Ninety percent of the young
28、women I interviewed said they hoped to combine work with motherhood, while two-thirds of the men said they wanted to share parenting and work. Sadly, children support working mothers more than we do as a society. Parental leave and child-care benefits in the United States remain inadequate, particul
29、arly when compared to whats offered in other countries. Children thrive when their mothers have satisfying, well-paid jobs when they can count on other caretakers to share the load. The challenge facing us is thus not whether good workers can also be good mothers, but whether we can create the condi
30、tions that enable working mothers and fathers to be good parents.(分数:10.00)(1).From the first paragraph, we can see that_.(分数:2.00)A.more American mothers work than ever before, but this problem of working mothers has not been solved satisfactorilyB.more than half Americans think that before going t
31、o school, children need their mothers wholehearted careC.a majority of Americans believe that once working outside home mothers think of their own work more than their childrenD.now more American mothers are working than any time in American history and anywhere else in the world(2).From the passage
32、, we can not find the proof of the fact that_.(分数:2.00)A.mothers do their household work today just as well as they did beforeB.lack of mothers care, children like to go astrayC.with their mothers working, children are better offD.in single-parent families, most children like their mothers to go out
33、 working(3).In the last paragraph, “Parental leave and child-care benefits in the United States remain inadequate“ actually refers to_.(分数:2.00)A.parents should not leave and pay more care to their childrenB.parental leave and child care is contradictedC.in the United States, parents enjoy inadequat
34、e child-care leave and allowanceD.children have inadequate care from their parents(4).What do the Americans need in solving the problem of working mothers?(分数:2.00)A.They need the support of males.B.They need the understanding of other members of their families.C.They need young people to be well-pr
35、epared to work both in and outside their homes.D.They need especially the powerful support, of the society for working mothers.(5).What is the main idea of the passage?(分数:2.00)A.It is better for mothers to stay at home.B.We should let mothers work without worries.C.We should work hard, especially m
36、others.D.Like mothers, like children.Ten years ago, when environmental lawyer Kassie Siegel went in search of an animal to save the world, the polar bear wasnt at all an obvious choice. Siegel and Brendan Cummings of the Center for Biological Diversity in Joshua Tree, Calif. , were looking for a spe
37、cies whose habitat was disappearing due to climate change, which could serve as a symbol of the dangers of global warming. Her first candidate met the scientific criteriait lived in ice caves in Alaskas Glacier Bay, which were melting awaybut unfortunately it was a spider. You cant sell a lot of T-s
38、hirts with pictures of an animal most people would happily step on. Next, Siegel turned to the Kittlitzs murrelet, a small Arctic seabird whose nesting sites in glaciers were disappearing. In 2001, she petitioned the Department of the Interior to add it to the Endangered Species list, but Interior S
39、ecretary Gale Norton turned her down. Elkhorn and staghorn coral, which are threatened by rising water temperatures in the Caribbean, did make it onto the list, but as iconic species they fell short insofar as many people dont realize theyre alive in the first place. The polar bear, by contrast, is
40、vehemently alive and carries the undeniable charisma of a top predator. And its dependence on ice was intuitively obvious; it lives on it most of the year. But it took until 2004 for researchers to demonstrate that shrinking sea ice was a serious threat to the bears population. On Feb. 16, 2005the d
41、ay the Kyoto Protocol to curb greenhouse gas emissions took effect, without the participation of the United StatesSiegel petitioned to list polar bears as endangered. Three years later her efforts met with equivocal (不明确的) success, as Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne designated the bears as “threa
42、tened“ (not endangered) , a significant concession from an administration that has stood almost alone in the world in its reluctance to acknowledge the dangers of climate change. The Endangered Species Act (ESA), whose odd lists of snails and bladderworts sometimes seemed stuck in the age of Darwin,
43、 had been thrust into the mainstream of 21 st-century environmental politics. Break out the T-shirts!(分数:10.00)(1).Siegel and Cummings hoped to choose an animal to_.(分数:2.00)A.call on people to take actions against global warmingB.make people aware of the danger of environmental damageC.introduce to
44、 people a new concept of environmental protectionD.remind people of the importance of protecting endangered species(2).The problem with elkhorn and staghorn corals lies in that_.(分数:2.00)A.they were not much-liked by many peopleB.they were not well-known enough to be an iconC.they were not added to
45、the list of Endangered SpeciesD.they were not considered animals by many people(3).It can be learnt that the polar bear_.(分数:2.00)A.was first considered by Siegel to be the iconic animal in 1998B.was first proposed by Siegel to be the endangered species in 2004C.was not qualified scientifically as t
46、he endangered species until 2005D.was not officially under the government protection until 2008(4).Which of the following is chosen by Siegel as the symbolic animal?(分数:2.00)A.The murrelet nesting in glaciers.B.The polar bear in the North Pole.C.The spider in Alaskas Glacier Bay.D.Staghorn corals in

48、mail has been in widespread use for more than a decade, simplifying the flow of ideas, connecting people from distant offices and eliminating the need for meetings, but e-mail should be carefully managed to avoid unclear and inappropriate communication. As time goes on and more people surf the Net, the amount of unsolicited e-mail grows. Some folks reasonably assume that cy
