When I was in the third grade, I was chosen to be the princess in the school play. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines(台词). But once on the stage, every word      from my head. Then my teacher asked me to change my role to be a narrator(解说者)for the play.        I didn’t tell my mother what had happened that day, she noticed my       and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.
It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions(蒲公英)popping(炸开)     the grass in bunches(束). I watched my mother bend down by one of the bunches. “I think I’ll dig up(挖光)all these weeds(野草),” she said. “From now on, we’ll       have roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,” I protested(抗议). “All the flowers are        -- even dandelions!”
My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn’t it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. “And that is        of people, too.” She added.
When I       that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth. “But you will be a wonderful narrator,” she said,       me of how much I loved to read stories aloud.
Thanks to my mother’s encouragement, I got to know everybody had his or her own      in the world, I felt proud of the role in the play.

Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
  If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart.When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
  Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and take no notice to anyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.
  If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达)of information, correspondence (通信), means of communication: a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.
  When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse.
  Here is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
  Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, telling the other person how you feel-------listening is the key to communication.
小题1:In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is __________ than with children.
A.more difficultB.much easier
C.less interestingD.more interesting
小题2:The underlined phrase “ drift apart” in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A.keep up with othersB.move along smoothly
C.distance yourself form othersD.come closer to each other
小题3:The example in Paragraph 6 shows that ___________.
A.Sophie is very polite to her parents  
B.Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her
C.Sophie did well in explaining her being late
D.communication is the solutionto misunderstanding
小题4:All the following statements are correct except “_______”.
A.Communication is a two-way matter  
B.It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing
C.If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them know
D.When dealing with parents, you only need to listen to them


“Yes, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard NASA’s Space Elevator. We’re going to leave soon. The entire ride will take about five hours, so sit back and enjoy the trip. As we rise, be sure to look out the window. You’ll see the sky change from deep blue to black. It is one of the most wonderful views(景色)you will ever see! ”
Does this sound like the Sci-Fi Channel? Well, it’s not. Scientists are thinking that a “space elevator” will be possible toward the end of the 21st century. A space elevator will consist of a long cable (电缆) from the Earth’s surface into space to an altitude(高度) of about 35,786 km. “Elevators” will travel along the cable and move people and loads between Earth and space. One of the greatest advantages is that the cost will be much less. Researchers estimate (估计) that a passenger with baggage at 150 kg might cost only $222! Compare that to today’s cost of around $3.3 million for the same weight. It would make “cheap” space travel possible. Scientists believe carbon nanotubes (纳米管) may be used to make high-strength materials for the cables, although they are still being studied.
It was Arthur C. Clarke who brought this idea to the general public. In his science fiction novel Fountains of Paradise, engineers build a space elevator on top of a mountain peak on an island. One day, Clarke was asked a question by a student during his speech. The student asked when the space elevator would become a reality. Clarke answered, “Probably about 50 years after everybody stops laughing.” He’s got a point. When we stop thinking of something as impossible, then we start working on its development.
小题1:Why should passengers in a space elevator look out the window while they are moving into space?
A.Because the blue sky is very beautiful.
B.Because the view outside is wonderful.
C.Because the sky changes from black to blue.
D.Because the trip will take about seven hours.
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Scientists haven’t used carbon nanotubes to make the cables.
B.Traveling in space elevators will cost much less in the future.
C.Passengers will be able to travel in space elevators with baggage.
D.Space elevators will travel for 35,786 km around the Earth’s surface.
小题3:What is the best title for this passage?
A.Possible Now: Space TravelB.Cheap Space Travel
C.Going into Space in an ElevatorD.Space Travel — Impossible
Try reading the following sentences as fast as you can. “She sells seashells by the seashore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I’m sure she sells seashore shells.”
Not very easy, was it? What you’ve just read is called a tongue twister (绕口令). It is an exercise made up of sounds that are hard to pronounce(发音,读) in order to help people pronounce words faster and more correctly. Try the next example.
“Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper. Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers? If Pete Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?”
Tongue twisters usually do not have much meaning. They are just designed to improve people’s ability  to pronounce words. Although they may be very difficult, these exercises are very important to people who are trying to speak English correctly. This is because tongue twisters help people to tell the differences between similar sounds.
So if you wish to pronounce words more smoothly, you’d better try picking out some tongue twisters and practicing them.
小题1:Tongue twisters are helpful in improving ___________ skills.
A.listeningB.writingC.pronunciationD.communication
小题2:The first tongue twister is hard because ___________.
A.it is very boring to readB.it teaches us a lot of knowledge
C.we don’t know who “she” isD.the sounds of “s” and “sh” are similar
小题3:The passage is probably taken from _________ in a school newspaper.
A.Story Time B.Study Garden
C.Latest NewsD.Lost and Found
