     However important school life may be, we can't ignore the fact that children spend more time at home
than in the classroom.Therefore the great influence of parents can't be ignored or discounted by the teacher.  They can become strong supports of the school or they can consciously or unconsciously prevent the
school from accomplishing its aims.
     Administrators have been aware of the need to keep_parents_apprised_of the newer methods used in
schools.Many principals have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness
program and developmental math.
     Moreover, the classroom teacher can also play an important role in explaining to parents what they
should do.The informal tea and many interviews carried on during the year, as well as new ways of
reporting pupils' progress, can significantly aid the interchange of ideas between school and home.
     Suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night. In a friendly
intervie w, the teacher can help the parent change his method.He might be persuaded to let Junior
participate in discussing the family budget, buying the food, using a measuring cup at home, setting the
clock, calculating mileage on a trip and engage in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis.
     If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making
satisfactory progress in math and at the same time, enjoying the work.
     Too often, however, teachers' conferences with parents are devoted to unimportant accounts of
children' s wrongdoing, complaints about laziness and poor work habits, and suggestions for punishments
and rewards at home.
     What is needed is a more creative approach in which the teacher, as a professional advisor, plants
ideas in parents'minds for the best use of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom.In
this way, the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngsters'
competence.
1. The underlined phrase"keep parents apprised of"in Para.2 probably means to let parents________.

A. judge
B. know
C. design
D. develop

2. What is the purpose of the schools' informal tea and interviews?

A. To improve the relationship between teachers and parents.
B. To explain to parents the change of the school curriculum.
C. To report students' misdoings and suggestions for punishments.
D. To help develop good communication between school and home.

3. Why does the author provide the example in Paragraph 4?

A. To help parents know the importance of home activities.
B. To show how the teacher can guide in home training.
C. To prove parents are nonprofessional advisors.
D. To advice parents to teach kids math at home.

4. From the passage we learn that the author________.

A. thinks teachers should do better as professionals
B. is worried about children' s performance at home
C. is satisfied with the present state of school education
D. believes time spent out of the classroom has been wasted

How to beat nerves

　　Do you blank out, freeze up(呆住)or feel so nervous in exams that you have trouble writing answers to questions that you knew just last night?

　　If so, you likely have a case of test anxiety．

　　But, don’t panic．By recognizing the problem, you are taking the first step towards overcoming it．

　　Believe it or not, a touch of nervousness can sharpen your mind, allowing you to perform more quickly．This is because under stress, the body releases the hormone adrenaline(肾上腺素), which prepares it for something important that will happen．However, too much anxiety can result in sleeplessness, loss of appetite before tests, and poor performance．Some people might feel shaky(weak), hot, or even sick．

　　If you worry a lot or are a perfectionist, you are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety．Those who have prepared poorly for a test or have had negative experiences taking tests may also experience test anxiety．

　　When you feel a storm of anxiety coming on, stop what you're doing and make your mind a blank．If possible, actually tell yourself to ‘STOP!’ This will get your mind off the stress．Then think of being at a place of comfort and let your body relax．As you continue the test, find questions you know the answers to and answer them first．This will help restore your confidence．

　　Talk to yourself using positive language．Make it a habit to replace each negative thought with a logical reason．For example：“I've studied hard and I know the material, so I’m ready to do the best I can．”Another thing you can do is to learn to accept mistakes．In fact, they can be valuable learning opportunities．

　　Last but not least, start test preparation early three to five days ahead of the quiz or test．After all, good study habits and skills．for example, time management and note-taking will give you the feeling that you are in control．

How Room Designs Affect Our Work and Feeling

　　Architects have long had the feeling that the place we live in can affect our thoughts, feeling and behaviors．But now scientists are giving this feeling an empirical(经验的，实证的)basis．They are discovering how to design spaces that promote creativity, keep people focused, and lead to relaxation．

　　Researches show that aspects of the physical environment can influence creativity．In 2009, Joan Meyers-Levy at the University of Minnesota, reported that the height of a room’s ceiling affects how people think．Her research indicates that higher ceilings encourage people to think more freely, which may lead them to make more abstract connections．Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook．

　　In addition to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence an occupant’s ability to concentrate．Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Cornell University result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of attention．

　　Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it seems to, according to a study led by C．Kenneth Tanner, head of the School Design & Planning Laboratory at the University of Georgia．Tanner and his team found that higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than did students whose classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots．

　　Recent study on room lighting design suggests that dim(暗淡的)light helps people to loosen up．If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner, or at parties could increase relaxation．Researchers of Harvard Medical School also discovered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitors relax．

　　So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings．“We have a very limited number of studies, so we are almost looking at the problem through a straw(吸管)”architect David Allison says;“How do you take answers to very specific questions and make broad, generalize use of them?”That is what we are all struggling with”

(1)

What does Joan Meyers-Levy focus on in her research?
[　　]
A．	Light
B．	Ceilings．
C．	Windows．
D．	Furniture

(2)

The passage tells us that ________．
[　　]
A．	the shape of furniture may affect people’s feelings
B．	lower ceilings may help improve students’creativity
C．	children in a dim classroom may improve their grades
D．	students in rooms with unblocked views may feel relaxed

(3)

The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean that ________．
[　　]
A．	the problem is not approached step by step
B．	the researches so far have faults in themselves
C．	the problem is too difficult for researchers to detect
D．	research in this area is not enough to make generalized pattems

How Much to Tip

　　You're out to dinner．The food is delicious and the service is fine．You decide to leave a big fat tip．Why?The answer may not be as simple as you think．

　　Tipping, psychologists have found, is not just about service．Instead, studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiter's choice of words, to how they carry themselves while taking orders, to the bill's total．Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pocket by the end of the night．

　　“Studies before have shown that mimicry(模仿)brings into positive feelings for the mimicker,” wrote Rick van Baaren, a social psychology professor．“These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimics them．”

　　So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups．He requested that half serve with a phrase such as, “Coming up!” Those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers．Rick van Baaren then compared their take-home．The results were clear－it pays to mimic your customer．The copycat(模仿者)waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group．

　　Leonard Green and Joel Myerson, psychologists at Washington University in St．Louis, found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill．After research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters, cabdrivers, hair stylists, they found tip percentages in these three areas dropped as customers' bills went up．In fact, tip percentages appear to plateau(达到稳定水平)when bills topped ＄100 and a bill for ＄200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for ＄100．

　　“That's also a point of tipping,” Green says．“You have to give a little extra to the cab driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you．If they weren't there, you'd never get any service．So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there．”

(1)

Apart from service, how many other factors affecting the customers' tipping are mentioned in the passage?
[　　]
A．	1．
B．	2．
C．	3．
D．	4．

(2)

These studies show that ________．
[　　]
A．	tipping can be affected by physical reactions to many different waiter's factors
B．	people who are being mimicked usually tip less to the person who mimics them
C．	the mimic waiters can get almost twice as much money as the other group
D．	mimicry makes the mimicker feel bad

(3)

According to the passage, which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip percentages?
[　　]
A．
B．
C．
D．

(4)

We know from the passage that the writer seems to ________．
[　　]
A．	object to Mr Green's idea about tipping
B．	think part of Mr Green's explanation is reasonable
C．	give his generous tip to waiters very often
D．	support the opinions of Mr Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping
