5．English as a second language （ESL） websites for children can help build vocabulary，teach correct spelling and pronunciation of words，and assist．with basic grammar such as understanding sentence structure，parts of．speech，tenses，and singular and plural word forms．English learning websites for children include：
•ESL Kid is an organized website that serves as a comprehensive directory of English as a second language resources for children，teachers，and parents．There are categories for different subjects，such as ABC games，dictionary，spelling，literature and music．Since this is just a directory，parents should help children explore the sites linked to it．

1．Do you think telling lies，whether a little or a lot，isn't that big of a deal？Well，that depends on the situation．If someone asks，"Does this dress make me look fat？"we might all lie somewhat．We might say，"Of course not．You look great．"Lying to spare someone's feelings is one thing．Lying to destroy someone's character or fame is another．
"What's really terrible is that you can't undo a big lie，"says a minister we'll call Morgan．"I promise if you go house to house to say，‘I feel terrible I wrongly accused my neighbor of stealing，'the lie will spread like a fire fueled by gasoline．You can't call back a lie very easily．"
Morgan goes on to say that lies have hurt people more than guns．
"We have a grandfather in our church whose former son-in-law told people the man treated his own children cruelly，"Morgan says．"To this day，we don't know whether it is true or not．I would tend to doubt it，but I can't take a chance，especially if he is working with young people in our church．"
Disarming someone who lies is tough．It's like disarming someone who's prepared to fire．That's why our society is full of people who are forced to cover up the lies of other people．
"I worked with a man who was stealing money from our employer，"says a man we'll call Fred．"He was so good at lying and doctoring the books （做假账） that it would have taken an FBI agent to stop him．I worried，‘If I turned him in，and he got out of the trouble，my career at our company would come to an end．'"
Fred says he came up with a plan to drop hints （暗示） to the company owner．"I found printed materials on monitoring possibly dishonest employees．I started mailing them to the company owner without leaving my name．Then one day，over lunch，I told my boss he should have the books checked carefully．He got the hint．"
Fred told us that when the books were checked，the dishonest co-worker tried to blame him for the errors．However，Fred told the company owner he had been dropping hints for some time．The boss got the picture．Fred kept his job．The dishonest guy was fired．
Figuring out how to make a liar public takes work．It can be done，but you might have to move at the pace of a turtle．The slower you move，the more control you will have．You have to give others time to take in the truth．

20．These days we are all conditioned to accept newness，whatever it costs．Very soon，there is no doubt that Apple's tablet （平板电脑） will seem as a vital tool of modern living to us as sewing machine did to our grandparents．At least，it will until someone produces an even smarter，thinner and more essential tablet，which，if recent history is any guide，will be in approximately six months'time．Turn your back for a moment and you find that every electronic item in your possession is as old as a tombstone．Why should you care if people laugh just because you use an old mobile phone？But try getting the thing repaired when it goes wrong．It's like walking into a pub and asking for an orange juice．You will be made to feel like some sort of time-traveler from the 1970s．"Why not buy a new one？"you will get asked．
And so the mountain of electrical rubbish grows．An average British person was believed to get rid of quite a number of electronic goods in a lifetime．They weighed three tons，stood 7 feet high，and included five fridges，six microwaves，seven PCs，six TVs，12 kettles，35 mobile phones and so on．Even then，the calculation seemed to be conservative．Only 35 mobiles in a lifetime？The huge number of electronic items now regularly thrown away by British families is clearly one big problem．But this has other consequences．It contributes greatly to the uneasy feeling that modem technology is going by faster than we can keep up．By the time I've learnt how to use a tool it's already broken or lost．I've lost count of the number of TV remote-controls that I've bought，mislaid and replaced without working out what most of the buttons did．
And the technology changes so unbelievably fast．It was less than years ago that I spotted an energetic businessman friend pulling what seemed to be either a large container or a small nuclear bomb on wheels through a railway station．I asked．"What have you got in there？Your money or your wife？""Neither，"he replied，with the satisfied look of a man who knew he was keeping pace with the latest technology，no matter how ridiculous he looked．"This is what everyone will have soon-even you．It's called a mobile telephone．"
I don't feel sorry for the pace of change．On the contrary，I'm amazed by those high-tech designers who can somehow fit a camera，music-player，computer and phone into a plastic box no bigger than a packet of cigarette．If those geniuses could also find a way to keep the underground trains running on the first snowy day of winter，they would be making real progress for human beings．What I do regret，however，is that so many household items fall behind so soon．My parents bought a wooden wireless radio in 1947，the year they were married．In 1973，the year I went to university，it was still working．It sat in the kitchen like an old friend-which，in a way，it was．It certainly spoke to us more than we spoke to each other on some mornings．When my mum replaced it with a new-style radio that could also play cassette-tapes，I felt a real sense of loss．
Such is the over-excited change of 21st-century technology that there's no time to satisfy our emotional needs．Even if Apple's new products turn out to be the most significant tablets I very much doubt if they will resist this trend．

10．"All right then-Just one more piece…"Words every girl has said when faced with That ail-too delicious cheesecake．Of course，many of us know we may eat the whole thing in the end．
     It isn't just girls．Most of us find it hard to hold back．However，scientists now say that willpower （意志力） is the key to success and a happy life．
     Scientists in different countries have been studying the effects of willpower on people's lives for a long time．The results are alike，according to an article on February 7 in the Guardian．
     In one experiment，scientists told young children that．they could either have a marsh-mallow （圆形软糖）now，or two marshmallows in 15 minutes．Waiting obviously needed more willpower．Scientists then tracked the children as they grew up．They wanted to see if certain children always had stronger willpower．They also wanted to see how having stronger willpower affected their lives．
     Years later，scientists found that the children who had waited for two marshmallows were all healthier，happier and richer adults．In contrast，the children who had shown weaker willpower at that young age were more likely to be in low-paid jobs，to be overweight，to have drug or alcohol problems，to divorce or to commit crimes．
     But there is hope，Roy F Baumeister，an American social psychology professor told the Guardian．Baumeister says we can train our willpower just like we train our muscles．Even a little practice can strengthen our overall self-control as long as we do it regularly and frequently．
     You could start by making yourself stand up straight，speaking in complete sentences，or using a computer mouse with the other hand．Scientists have found that people who manage to change little habits often perform much．better in lab willpower tests．
     Like muscles，willpower can"get tired"．You should avoid trying to do too many things at the same time，or when you don't have enough energy for example when you are ill．If you already feel tired，you can try to recharge （恢复） your willpower with a good night's sleep and by eating well．
57•Thee example of a girl eating cheesecake is used toA．
     A•introduce the issue of willpower     
     B．show how easily people give in to their desires
     C．prove most girls lack willpower．
     D•indicate the connection between willpower an success
58．What can we infer from the experiment？B
     A•The scientists did not expect the results to turn out as they did．
     B•The children who chose to wait were likely to succeed in their future careers and lives．
     C•It indicated that willpower is the most important factor for success．
     D•The children who only accepted one marshmallow at that start had stronger willpower．
 59．Why can we say that willpower is like our muscles？D
     a．You shouldn't overuse it．．
     b．Rest and good food are good for it．
     c•Setting goals is good for it．
     d•It needs regular exercise．
     A．abc            B．acd               C．bcd             D．abd         
60．What is the article mainly about？C
     A•What the effect of willpower is．
     B•How willpower and muscles are similar．
     C•The significance of willpower and how we can strengthen it．
     D•How willpower is linked to success．
