You wake up in the morning,the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time.Then the telephone rings,you say hello, and the drama starts.The person on the other end has a depressing(令人沮喪的) tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to.Yon are still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!

   Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness.It may not change what you think,but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.

  Life brings ups and downs,but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer.They only feel glad when they make others feel bad.No wonder they can hardly win others’pity or respect.

    When you communicate with positive people,your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted.When the dagger(匕首)of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that all in all,brings you down.

    Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people.This could be a co-worker,or relative.In this case,say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out-your anger back to a negative person,but all this does is to lower you to that same negative level and they won’t feel ashamed of themselves about that.

    Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized.The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附著)you throughout the rest of your day,which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness.Life is too short to feel negative.Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.

Our particular parenting style reflects our own way of “l(fā)ooking”. Here’s a great piece of writing reflecting parent’s particular ways on the parenting style that have become known humorously as helicopter parenting and submarine parenting.

Helicopter parents hover over their children, managing every aspect of their child’s life. On the contrary, submarine parents remain “hidden” coming to the surface when guidance is needed.

While helicopter parents may have the best intentions, in reality, they are raising children with few problem solving skills. Children with hovering parents never get the chance to face disappointment and build up their ability to recover from misfortune.

Think about your typical submarine. Submarines usually remain underwater. In case of a need for emergency surfacing, submarines can rise so quickly. They are driven partially out of the water. Submarine parents also remain out of sight, yet able to appear in the case of an emergency.

I admit I’m a submarine mom. My job as a parent is to have fun with my daughters while letting them explore and learn natural consequences.

My older daughter found herself acting in commercials and making more than minimum wage as a teen. To give her a sense of the real world, I insisted she spend three weeks every summer, picking strawberries and earning $3.50 on a good day.

When my youngest daughter Sondra was six, she wanted a very expensive American Girl Doll. I cut the full color 18" picture out of the American Girl catalogue and had it laminated (壓膜). “Here’s your American Girl Doll.” I said “When you turn nine, I’ll buy you the 3D doll on your birthday.” Sondra played with her flat doll for months, making clothes and furniture for her. She learned creativity. I saved $88.00.

1.What is the text mainly about?

D. Different styles of parenting.

2.The underlined phrase “hover over” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_____”.

A. leave behind                  B. fly around               C. watch over             D. set aside

3.Which of the following can be learned about helicopter parents from the passage?

A. They give their children proper guidance. 

B. They try to do everything for their children.

C. They teach their children how to face failures.

D. They help their children explore by themselves.

4.The author supports her point of view mainly by _____.

A. stating facts and offering advice

B. using figures and giving evidence

C. analyzing data and drawing conclusions

D. making comparisons and giving examples

As China’s women’s gymnastics team enjoyed the glory of winning the country’s first team Olympic gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games,the young gymnasts took the opportunity to remind the world that they are old enough to compete.

Weeks before the Beijing Games, some international media raised questions about the ages of some of the members of China’s gymnastics team, particularly He Kexin and Jiang Yuyuan. They said the girls might be younger than 16, the minimum age for the Olympics. But the Chinese Gymnastics Association quickly provided copies of the gymnasts’ ID cards and passports, proving they are indeed old enough to compete.

In the final, He Kexin gave a clean performance on her favorite uneven bars(高低杠), earning the second highest score after falling from the bars during qualification. “Although I fell down in the qualification, I became more confident today to make up for my mistake and I finally made it.”She said. It was a great moment for head coach Lu Shanzhen. “Our team made history today and proved to the world that we are the best.” the coach said, “The gold medal is not only for the gymnastics team,but also for the whole Chinese delegation at the Beijing Games.”

The coach owed the team’s success to a series of reforms. The Chinese team used to train a 1ot, but competed less, which led to poor results in international competitions. To improve their ability to compete and to strengthen their psychological power, the Chinese team sent more team members to compete abroad, so they could bring a competitive spirit back to the team. All six gymnasts in the Olympic team final were selected from fierce competition, and they proved themselves today.

1. Before the Beijing Games started,some international media doubted whether ________.

A. Chinese women gymnasts could win the team gold medal

B. He Kexin would fall from the bars during qualification

C. Chinese women gymnasts could make history at the Beijing Games

D. some Chinese women gymnasts were old enough for the Games

2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. The international media’s doubts proved to be true.

B. He Kexin’s fall in the qualification had no bad effect on her performance in the final competition.

C. Chinese women gymnasts’ success at the Beijing Games proved that the reforms did work.

D. Each team is made up of 6 members to compete for the team gold medal in women gymnastics.

3. In the opinion of Lu Shanzhen, the key to achieving success for athletes is to________.

A. practice harder than ever                    B. experience more competitions abroad

C. have strong psychological power                    D. have a competitive spirit

4. The main purpose of the text is to________.
