A

Best Gifts to Children This Season
Marble (弹珠游戏) Circuit
With brightly colored pieces and a seemingly simple layout, Marble Circuit doesn’t present as a tough logic game—but don’t underestimate (低估) its difficulty. After drawing a challenge card, players must arrange pieces and fill in holes on the game board to allow the right number of marbles to run through the channels and into each box at the bottom of the board. Because it requires more patience and abstract, special thinking skills than some other kinds of logic puzzles, Marble Circuit is recommended for the over -8 crowd. (Mind Ware, $ 24. 95)
Botzees

Kids can follow directions or use their imaginations to build a robot out of the 130 blocks, and then command it to dance, sing, drum and light up with the companion app on a smart device ( 设备) or tablet. Though the robot-building appealed to younger testers, kids aged 5 and up enjoyed the toy’s advanced features (特色). (Pai Technology, $ 99. 99)
How to Code a Rollercoaster

Just as coding can be used to tell stories, this is a story about coding. This picture book does a good job of introducing and explaining what code is, how computers understand it, and introducing common coding terms—variables, loops, if/then. The volume is part of the popular “Girls Who Code” series, but intended for the younger reader. (Penguin Random House, $ 17. 99)
Code Like a Girl

Miriam Peskowitz features women in the computer science field in this how-to book. It shows how people are working to make tech a more inclusive place to code. Written with a cookbook -like feel, the book provides encouraging, step-by-step tips and tricks for learning the Python computer language, and more.

(Penguin Random House, $ 21. 99)
21． What can we know about the gifts?
A． Botzees enables its players to build a robot as they want.
B． Marble Circuit is an easy logic game for those 7-year-olds.
C． How to Code a Rollercoaster is written by a famous writer.

B

I opened the big steel door to the school's front office. My hands were a bit sweaty, my heart was pounding in my chest, and my throat and tongue felt tense and dry. It was the first day of school. No, not for me as a student, but rather, for me as a first time reading tutor (助教) volunteering with the Experience Corps program.
I'm so proud to be part of such a worthwhile educational organization. The Experience Corps developed a research-based, statistically proven reading improvement program which consists of fun reading games. In the games, I'd play with each child and they didn't even realize that they were actually learning and improving their reading—we were having too much fun!
"Ms. R," (as they called me ) , "I read my book to my dog, Sunny, and she really liked it, too." Great! That's the idea—keep on reading to others at home to increase accuracy and fluency. "Ms. R, my mom has a baby in her belly. I'm going to be a big sister and will read to him when he comes out." That one made me feel all warm and sweet, and I told the student that she would be the best big sister ever. "Ms. R, why do you have gray hair?" I love the frankness of kids. I just laughed and told them it was better to have gray hair than no hair! We all giggled (傻笑) at that.
The students were tested throughout the year, and results showed that they were making progress in their reading. I hope I played at least a small part in their academic success. When I first volunteered to tutor, I was a bit anxious. I had no teaching experience, but I found out that you don't need any. All you need is the willingness to give of yourself and a desire to work one-on-one with these children who so desperately want to please you.
24． How did the author feel when first working as a reading tutor?
A． Curious. B． Nervous.
C． Satisfied. D． Pleased.
25． What's the main task of the author in the school?
A． Helping improve the reading program.
B． Teaching students knowledge of all the subjects.

C． Playing various outdoor games with the students.
D． Offering reading guidance under the program.
26． What's the purpose of paragraph 3?
A． To describe the pleasure of being a reading tutor.
B． To state how the Experience Corps program works.
C． To show how close the students are to the volunteer tutor.
D． To explain the difficulties and hardship of teaching.
27． In the author's view, what is the key to being a good reading tutor?

A． Experience.
C． Knowledge.

B． Devotion.
D． Diligence.
