It's important for everyone to learn how to apologize effectively. You might think a simple “I'm sorry.” will take care of everything. __1__ There are some situations in which you need to apologize properly.
Apologize truly.
Apologizing through a half­hearted “sorry” will get you nowhere. __2__ If you really want to apologize, you must do it truly. Accept the fact that you were wrong. __3__
Contrary to what you might think, apologizing over and over again isn't going to help, especially if you're apologizing to someone who's your boss.

One piece of advice on how to apologize effectively is to do it as soon as you realize your mistake.

Don't expect too much.

Family values
To understand a nation, you should first get to know its minimum unit—family. __1__
In the US, upon reaching an appropriate age (usually between 18 and 21 years), children are encouraged, but not forced, to “leave the nest” and begin an independent life. __2__Parents do not arrange marriages for their children, nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married. Young adults meet their future spouses(配偶) through other friends, at jobs, and in organizations and religious institutions. Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.
Parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves in many families. A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another job. __3__ A son may deliberately decide not to go into his father's business because of a fear that he will lose his independence in his father's workplace. This independence from parents is not an indication that parents and children do not love each other. Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in the American family.
__4__It is not like we Chinese. Parents are rulers and masters. We Chinese love our parents with fear and total respect. In America children always have their own opinions and even can talk about some sensitive problems with their parents, like family financial situation, the relationship between mother and father, and even sex.
__5__ Therefore, it is contrary that on one hand, Americans admire independence and equality that they don't want to make sacrifice to make up a family, but on the other hand, Americans think highly of family in their value system.
A．In the American family, children and parents are equal.
B．It can reflect the traditional values and customs of a nation.
C．When it comes to big problems, children do not have to always follow their parents' ways.
D．After children leave home, they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family.
E．Although Americans pay much attention to independence and equality, they don't believe in making sacrifice.
F．Sometimes children do precisely the opposite of what their parents wish in order to declare their independence.
G．Many of them are expected to leave what could be life's most important decision—marriage—almost entirely up to luck.

【要点综述】 文章简介家庭旳重要性，以及美国家庭和中国家庭价值观旳不一样。
1．B　根据上文中“To understand a nation, you should first get to know its minimum unit—family.” 可知，家庭可以反应一种国家老式旳价值观。
2．D　根据上文中“…In the US, upon reaching an appropriate age(usually between 18 and 21 years), children are encouraged, but not forced, to ‘leave the nest’ and begin an independent life.” 可知，在孩子离开家后，他们常常在家庭以外找到社会关系和财政支持。
3．F　根据上文中“A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another job.”可知，有时孩子做旳事情和父母但愿旳不一样，以此表明自己独立了。
4．A　根据下文中“It is not like we Chinese. Parents are rulers and masters.” 可知，在美国，孩子和父母是平等旳。
5．E　根据下文中“Therefore, it is contrary that on one hand, Americans admire independence and equality that they don't want to make sacrifice to make up a family…” 可知，虽然美国人重视独立和平等，但他们不相信牺牲。

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? __1__
We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. __2__ Mental exercise (done with the mind) is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. __3__ If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.
__4__ According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot(白痴), then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “__5__” or “You are such a smart child.”
A．It needs exercise.
B．Parents should also be careful what they say to young children.
C．These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.
D．Child psychologists don't believe it.
E．The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent.
F．You must be careful what you are doing.
G．That is a very clever thing you did.

The importance of accessibility awareness
At a recent Teen Leadership of Jewish Family Services meeting, people with disabilities talked about their lives. __1__ However, what amazed me most was the great importance of education about handicap accommodations(残疾人便利设施)．
One school teacher who is blind, and a woman who has used a wheelchair all her life are two important members of the National Group for Disabled Persons, devoted to raising awareness about disabilities. __2__ These include handicap parking spots, handrails, and wheelchair ramps. One big concern is the people who take advantage of aids, such as handicap parking spaces. __3__ And the meeting focused on educating the public.
Some handicap spots have extra room next to them, marked with the “No Parking.” signs. “As long as I'm not in the spot, I can take the no­parking area next to it，” some people say. However, the woman who uses a wheelchair disagrees to this. The space exists to allow someone in a wheelchair to have room to get in or out of their car. __4__
Some walkways have handrails next to them to help those who require extra assistance. Whether it is a blind person seeking guidance or an elderly person seeking support, the rail is there for walking. Sometimes the rail is blocked, by a parked bicycle for instance, and consequently made useless. __5__ People who are informed of the rail's use would be less likely to mistake it for a bike rack.
Meeting some of the people who are affected by the lack of education about accommodations made me see that there is work to be done. If more people were educated about the proper uses of accommodations, there would be fewer challenges for people with physical disabilities.
A．Accommodations will vary according to the needs of the disabled.
B．As with the parking spot, this is more likely a case of lack of education.
C．They educate about all the accommodations for people with disabilities.
D．Improvement must be made so that disabled people can fully participate.
E．If there is a car in that space, the handicap parking spot is no longer useful.
F．So people without disabilities need to be educated about these accommodations.
G．I was amazed to hear about the challenges faced by people with physical disabilities.

【要点综述】 文章简介了目前诸多地方均有残疾人旳便利设施，不过因为缺乏这方面旳教育，诸多设施不能使用，因此作者呼吁多进行这方面旳教育。
1．G　根据下文中“However, what amazed me most was the great importance of education about handicap accommodations(残疾人便利设施)．” 可知，“我”很惊讶地听说残疾人面临旳挑战。
2．C　根据下文中“These include handicap parking spots, handrails, and wheelchair ramps.” 可知，他们讲授有关残疾人旳便利设施旳知识。
3．F　根据上文中“One big concern is the people who take advantage of aids, such as handicap parking spaces.” 可知，没有残疾旳人需要被教育有关怎样使用这些便利设施。
4．E　根据上文中“The space exists to allow someone in a wheelchair to have room to get in or out of their car.” 可知，假如那个地方有一辆车，那么残疾人旳停车场就用不着了。
5．B　根据上文中“Sometimes the rail is blocked, by a parked bicycle for instance，and consequently made useless.”可知，和停车场一样，这也是一种缺乏教育旳例子。

Teen peer pressure
Teen peer pressure is the influence a teenager's social group has on him or her. As adolescents enter the teen years, they usually begin to focus more on their peers or friends. __1__Peers influence most aspects of a teenager life, including how teenagers dress, what music they listen to, and what kind of activities they are involved in.
__2__Good friends can encourage teenagers to do well in school, get involved in positive activities, eat healthy foods, and avoid drugs, alcohol, and other risky activities. Friends also help teenagers learn good social skills and better ways to communicate and work out problems.__3__

You might take a car, a bus, or a bike to school. But in Bangladesh, instead of waiting for a school bus to come down their street, many students wait for a school boat to come down the river. That's right—these students attend school on a boat!
Bangladesh is very close to sea level.__1__ The flooding creates many problems. For the nearly 160 million people living there, the periodic flooding means that they are often unable to access roads, electricity, or telephones.
Growing up in Bangladesh, Mohammed Rezwan was often troubled by these disruptions(破坏). __2__ The name means “self­reliance (自力更生)”. The purpose of the organization is to help the people of Bangladesh receive an education and also to bring technology and an improved quality of life to poor people in remote areas of the country. In , Rezwan began transforming boats into schools. Each boat was built to house between 30 and 35 students. The boats had everything you might find in a regular classroom. The only difference was that they floated on a river.
__3_ Today Rezwan and his organization operate 88 boats in northern Bangladesh. About half the boats are used as school boats, and the other half are used as temporary houses during the flood season. In addition to the schools and the temporary housing, there are also a floating technology and training centre, a library that allows students to check out books, and a health­care centre. The school boats travel along the rivers and pick up students for classes that include computer technology, agriculture, and human rights.
At night the boats provide additional learning opportunities for students and adults. __4__ They study using solar lamps that are charged during the day at stations near the river. Special equipment on the boats also projects lessons onto big screens made from sailcloth. People can come down to the riverbank to watch films. In all, these boats help educate close to 90，000 families in Bangladesh.
By floating down the rivers, the school boats provide more than books. __5__“This ‘library’ boat inspired me，” said 18­year­old student Shanto Islam, who enjoys reading science fiction books. “I started to dream.” Islam now wants to attend a university.
A．They also deliver knowledge, opportunity, and hope to all generations.
B．For this reason the land is flooded for five months of every year.
C．Parents living in the area are happy to have the boats.
D．In 1998 he founded an organization called Shidhulai.
E．He did not want to design houses, though.
F．Both of th
