In the sea there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones. We call them “Coral Islands”.

A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land with tress, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is open to the water. There is a little round lake inside the island.

If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You may think they are flowers.

If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each of these holes a very small sea animal has lived . These sea animals make the coral.

They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher and higher.

At last it grew out of the water.

Then the sea brought to it small trees and something else. After some years, these things changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds to this earth. Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island.

The little seeds grew. In a few years there were plants all over the island. In a few more years there were trees growing there.

So you see, these islands were built little by little. The workers were very small. Do they not teach us a lesson? Can you think what the lesson is?

Fear is an emotion like others such as happiness, anger, hurt, sadness. We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond. Being afraid of fast cars, for example, is something that might protect us from harm. Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.

Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs. Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others, and at times, the media. Many normal fears during the early years, like men with beards, or large dogs, disappear with age. Those relating to personal failure and ridicule (嘲笑) remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.

Children’s fears are often trivial, but that doesn’t mean they should be ignored. They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child. Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them.

Research shows that as a child grows up, the center of his fears changes a lot. Things like divorce, a teacher who “shouted at me”, people with guns, bullies, big boys, or “making fun of me” top the list of childhood fears.

We cannot always prevent these experiences from happening, but it’s essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment. Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease the pain of these fears. Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears. This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to cope. With all emotions, fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is normal and can be dealt with.

1.The underlined word “trivial” in the third paragraph probably means “_______”.

A. small B. serious

C. harmful D. common

2.In dealing with children’s fears, the final goal of the parents is to _______.

A. stop unpleasant experiences happening to children

B. let children know about the nature of fear

C. create an environment where there is nothing to fear

D. develop children’s ability to treat their fear on their own

3.From the passage we can learn that ________ .

A. some childhood fears may have a lasting influence

B. children should avoid the media to reduce their fear

C. fears can be judged according to the environment

D. children with similar fears can communicate easily

4.What’s the best title for this passage?

A. How to Overcome Children’s Fears B. Children’s Fears

C. The kind of Children’s Fears D. The Bad Effects of Fears

How to Create a Mind Map

Most of us think visually but we write textually. 1. It also makes the information we list more difficult to process, remember, and share.

2. It combines the brain’s visual nature with our tendency to write down words. We end up with a diagram that combines logic and order in a less structured manner. This promotes clearer thinking and better comprehension. 3.

So, how do you create a mind map? The most basic method is to just use a pen and paper, or a marker and whiteboard. It begins with a central topic or idea, then flows outward. 4. The next level of topics is represented by branches extending from it.

There aren’t really any rules for creating mind maps. While most flow outwardly from the central topic, some users prefer to build mind maps in one direction. 5. This can make groups of ideas easier to identify and remember. It also makes a mind map more enjoyable to create and use.

Mind maps are extremely effective for taking notes, planning a project, brainstorming an idea, presenting information to others, and many other uses. Take out your pen and have a try.

A. They help to clarify thinking.

B. This goes against how our minds actually work.

C. They help us save time by focusing on key issues.

D. A mind map is the perfect answer to this dilemma.

E. Think of it as a tree, where the central point is the trunk.

F. It’s also a lot more enjoyable than simply writing down lists.

G. Others like to add colors, pictures, or symbols in their mind maps.

Things An Air Hostess Won't Tell You

To make things a bit easier for them and ensure a smooth flight, many Flight attendants have little tricks under their sleeves. Here are some of them which they won't tell you out of sheer politeness.

1.

Contrary to what most people think, a flight attendant's primary job is to ensure your safety - the helping and serving part of their job are just add-ons. If they are assisting you with your luggage, it is to make sure it is stored properly and does not harm anyone. They are not required to lift your bags or help you take them elsewhere. All the other assistance, such as providing you with a drink, handing you hot towels, etc., are to make sure you stay calm and satisfied.

2.

As unfair as it may seem, the time that a flight attendant spends in getting the plane ready, settling you down, etc., is not included in their salary. They do, however, receive some expense allowance(津貼) for the entire time they clock in - it is a pretty small income though

3.

If a flight attendant feels a passenger is ordering too many drinks, and getting drunk, they might avoid serving him/her by avoiding eye contact. When that fails, they might just fill the glass half-way or give him/her a diluted (稀釋的) drink

4.

A number of training programs and workshops exist to train flight attendants in different aspects. As some people are using flights more and more to smuggle (走私), flight attendants are being regarded as the first line of defense against this heinous （邪惡的）crime. The benefits are already evident - a number of dangers are avoided, thanks to alert(警惕的) flight attendants on board.

5.

This is a bit unfortunate for those sitting at the back of the plane, but nevertheless true. As the attendants start serving from the front of the plane to the back, the variety of drinks or meals might go down. This is because a plane has limited space, only a certain number of items can be stored, and by the time they get to the back of the plane, they run out of at least a few of the options.

A. Sitting at the back means fewer food options.

B. Flight attendants get paid only for flight hours.

C. Flight attendants' job is to keep passengers safe.

D. Flight attendants might water down your drinks.

E. Flight attendants are trained to identify criminals.

F. The seat-belt sign is “on” far longer than necessary.
