It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible for housework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.
　　If you give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent.
　　My daughter Carla’s fifth - grade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students received less than a prefect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and declared firmly they could learn what they had missed.
　　You can use the same technique when you evaluate （评价）your child’s work at home. Don’t always scold and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasn’t done. If your child completes a difficult task（任务）, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.
　　Learning is a process（过程）of trying and failing and trying and succeeding. If you teach your children not to fear a mistake of failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.
4．The whole passage deals with ________.
　　 A. social education　　　　　　　 　B. school education
　　 C. family education　　　　　　　 　D. pre - school education
5．The article gives us a good suggestion about how to evaluate（评价）your child’s work at home. That is to _____.
　　 A. praise his success　　　　　　　 B. promise him a trip
　　 C. give him a punishment　　　　　 D. promise him a ball game
6．The author advises readers to________.
　　 A. learn from himself, for he has a good way of teaching
　　 B. take pride in Carla’s fifth - grade teacher
　　 C. do as what Carla’s teacher did in educating children
　　 D. follow Carla’s example because she never fails in the test
7．Having read the last paragraph, we can conclude that ________.
　　 A. pride goes before a fall B. practice makes perfect
C. no pains, no gains D. failure is the mother of success

Good afternoon, and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Today, I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws.

　　Although English is not as old as Chinese , it is spoken by many people around the world every day. English speakers are always creating new words and we are often able to know where most words come from.
Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They didn’t speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round piece of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans didn’t understand the question and answered, “We come from Hamburg.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round piece of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”. Today, “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.
Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too. This reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary.
12. Hamburg is ____________
A. a kind of food B. a round piece of beef
C. the name of a village D. a city in Germany
13. According to the passage, ___________.
A. few Americans like hamburgers
B. hamburgers are made with beef
C. hamburgers are made with ham
D. hamburgers were first sold about a century ago
14 According to the writer, which of the following can often be found in any large English dictionary?
A. Where all the new words come from.
B. Where those Germans came from.
C. The reason why a word has a certain meaning.
D. The reason why English is spoken around the world.
15. From the story, we can know that the word “hamburger” comes from ___________.
A. China because it has a long history
B. English because Germans don’t speak good English
C. The round piece of beef which those people from Hamburg were eating
D. English speakers because they always create new words
