5．The teacher often tells me that nothing isimpossible（不可能的）．

4．Almost two-thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before bed．Most of these kids like Mum's storytelling more than Dad's，researchers said．
They carried out a study that showed younger children aged 3-4 were most hungry for more stories．Over three-quarters of them said they wished their parents to read to them more often．
More than half of all children aged 3-8 said story time was their favorite pastime with their parents．
"The results of our research reveal the traditional activity of storytelling continues to be a powerful learning and emotional resource（資源）in children's lives，"said child psychologist Richard Woolfson．
Storytelling ranked before television or video games among pastimes for kids.82 percent of them said reading a story with their parents helped them sleep better．This finding came from a survey of 500 children aged 3-4 in Britain．According to the research，there are two ways for mothers to become best storytellers．They can use funny voices to show different characters in a story．They can also make their own special sounds to keep the story interesting and attractive．When mum and dad are not at hand，celebrities will do：over 30 percent of children said they would like to hear a bedtime story from famous people like Harry Potter，star Daniel Radcliffe．Other movie stars like Zac Efron，Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson also welcomed by children．
"It can be very difficult for parents to find the time to read with their children．But these moments can help build close relationship between parents and children，and also can play an important part in their child's development，"said Woolfson．

51．What do the children want most according to the studyC？
A．Stories from Daniel Radcliffe．
B．Stories from Dad．
C．Stories from Mum．

A．depend more on stories from parents
B．become less thirsty for bedtime stories
C．show more interest in playing outdoors
D．become better storytellers to other children
53．If a mother wants to be a better storyteller，she'd betterA．

C．it really pays to spend time reading with our children

3．How quickly can you count from one to ten？Do you use ten different words to do it？Can you do it in English，or do you have to use your first languages？Do you count on your fingers？Many people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world．But scientists have discovered that it is not true．
People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers．In the United States，people think begin counting with their first fingers，which they extend or stick out．They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb（拇指）to count to five．Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten．In China，people count by using different finger positions．In this way，a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand．
Besides ways of finger counting，scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers．Some languages have only a few words for numbers，and others have no words for numbers．A group of scientists studied aboriginal（土著的）people in Australia．These people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers．They don’t even have word for numbers．However，they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers．
In a similar study，researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe（部落） in northwestern Brazil don’t have words for numbers such as“one”or“three．”．They are not able to say“five trees”or“ten trees”but can say“some trees，”“more trees，”or“many trees．”Professor Edward Gibson said that mist people believe that everyone knows how to count，“but here is a group that does not count．They could learn，but is’t not useful in their culture，so they’ve never picked it up．”
Although all humans are able to understand quantities（數量），not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting．Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives．Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math，too．

51．The writer begins with the four questions in order toB．
A．make a survey
B．interest readers
C．tell a story
D．solve math problems
52．What do we learn from the difference in finger counting between the U．S．and ChinaC？
A．People from China count much faster than people from the U．S．
B．People from China need two hands to count from one to ten．
C．People of different cultures may use different ways of finger counting
D．People of different cultures use the same way of finger counting．
53．Which of following is true about aboriginal AustraliansD？
A．They have only a few words for numbers
B．They have hand movements to stand for numbers
C．They can only count to five on their fingers
D．They can understand different ideas about numbers
54．The study of the Piraha tribe shows thatD
A．people all over the world know how to count
B．People of the tribe have words for number
C．Some groups of people are not smart enough to count
D．Counting is not useful in the culture of the tribe
55．What is the main idea of the passageA？
A．people from different cultures have different ideas about numbers and math
B．Chinese people can count more easily on their fingers than Americans
C．In some aboriginal culture，people don’t even know how to count
D．Some languages don’t have number words because people don’t need numbers．

2．[1]We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others．
[2]Photographers use cameras，artists use brushes，musicians use songs and writers use stories．
[3]Spencer Johnson's story Who Moved My Cheese？shows changes exist in（存在于） our life．Life changes and so we do．We must change ourselves to face the changing environment，or we will fail．
[4]Just look at the cycle（循環(huán)） ofthe seasons/nature．．Trees bud（發(fā)芽） in spring and in summer their leaves turn green．In autumn，their leaves start to fall onto the ground．When winter arrives，there are no leaves on trees．Next spring the cycle begins again．Since we know there are cycles in nature，we can prepare for them．We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer，so we can dress properly．
[5]Since we accept the cycles of nature，we should also accept the changes in our life．
[6]We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible（靈活的）．We can regard the changes in our life as chances．As we keep changing ourselves，we can keep up with the changes in our life．
