Some people collect postage stamps -- the small pieces of paper you place on letters or postcards before mailing them. Other people collect works of art or musical instruments. But a man in the American state of Maryland collects secrets.
For the past 10 years, people from throughout the world have been sending Frank Warren postcards and other objects with secrets written on them. He now has a million secrets. Mr. Warren lives in Germantown, Maryland, near Washington, D.C. Ten years ago, he created an art project he calls“PostSecret.”
“I invited strangers from all around the world to write down their deepest confession（自白） on a postcard, something they’d never told anyone else before, but something that was true. And I asked them to mail it to my home anonymously(匿名地).”People send him postcards, other objects and emails telling their secrets. Every Sunday, he chooses 10 secrets and puts them on the PostSecret website.
Mr. Warren says he created PostSecret so people would have a safe place in which to share their secrets.“I was struggling with secrets in my own life. And it was by creating this safe place where others could share their secrets with me without judgment -- anonymously -- I think that space was something I needed just as much as they did.”
He has published six books full of the secrets people have shared with him. One secret in each book is his. The project itself was once one of Mr. Warren’s secrets. His wife Jan did not know exactly what he was doing until the first book was published.
Some people tell Frank Warren of their secret desire to kill themselves. So he and the PostSecret community have raised more than $1 million to help prevent suicides.

My parents are amazing. I had the most wonderful childhood, and it’s not because I had everything I wanted or because I was a cool kid. I have learned a lot about parenting from what my parents did. Here are a few gems (珍宝) that I use now or plan to use in the future with my two boys.
Here’s how a conversation often went when I was a kid. Usually it was around 4:30 p.m. I said, “I’m hungry. Can I have a cookie?” My mom answered, “No. Have a banana.” “I don’t want a banana.” “Then you’re not hungry.” Sometimes I was angry about it, but I knew that was good for me. Thanks mom for not letting me eat junk food (垃圾食品). Now I agree with my mother and I have this same conversation with my three-year-old son. I hope it helps him form healthy diet habits.
I know many of us heard this as children. “If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you do it, too?” If our kids asked for something just because everyone else had it or was doing it, we often got this response. It was the perfect response, and we soon learned not to ask for things because everyone else had it, but because it was something we wanted.
I will always be thankful that my parents let us try the things that interested us, not the things they wanted to push us into. This helped me try swimming, dance, and the piano before second grade. I found a love — singing — and kept up with that through my college years. It drives me crazy, as a mom and teacher, when I see kids who are pushed into their parents’ favorite activities, even when they don’t have a passion for them.
29. What are the gems in the writer’s mind?
A. Her parents’ knowledge.
B. Her parents’ educational methods.
C. Her parents’ love.
D. Her parents’ personalities.
30. Why does the writer mention the conversation with her mother in Paragraph 2?
A. To show her mother was so strict with her.
B. To stress the importance of healthy diet habits.
C. To show her mother was not concerned about her.
D. To show how her mother helped her develop healthy diet habits.
31. The response from the writer’s parents in Paragraph 3 is mainly used to .
A. refuse their kid’s same request
B. meet their kid’s right request
C. tell their kid not to be in danger
D. tell the good from the bad
32. Which of the following may be supported by the writer?
A. The children must do what their parents want them to.
B. The children can do anything that they want to.
C. The children must do what is useful to society.
D. The children can try the things that interest them.
D
Picture this scene, a 6-year-old girl is alone on a raft, with no lifejacket, 200 yards from the shore with the winds whipping up the water. She is pointing at her cousins, and yelling out, “They are drowning!” Your eyes scan left only to see a three-year-old above the surface of the water and you realize two hands are holding her up, the hands of 14-year-old Mallory, who is struggling below the surface of the water.
