It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible for housework,    31   with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.
If you give your children the    32    (impress) that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard    33   as unfit or unable persons.    34   children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent.
My daughter Carla’s fifth grade teacher got every child in her class   35   (feel) special. When students received less than a perfect test score, she would point out    36   they had mastered and declared firmly they could learn what they had missed.
You can see the same technique when you evaluate your    37   work at home. Don’t always scold and give lots of praise    38   . Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasn’t done. If your child completes a difficult task, reward him    39    a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad. Learning is a process of trying and failing and trying and   40   . If you teach your children not to fear a mistake of failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.

The US government has started a website, Admongo, to help children think critically about the advertising aimed at them. It claims to provide visitors with an “education” through games and other amusement.

A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo. “Call me Haiz”, he says upon arrival in a rocket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it. Spacey dance music plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising.

Its inventors say eight to twelve years old is the age kids develop their critical thinking abilities. Kids that age are also a big market for advertisers.

The idea behind Admongo is to teach children three things: To identify the advertiser. To know what the advertiser is really saying. And to know what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do.

Children learn these things through a video game. They create their own game character. They can choose different skin colors, hair styles, eye and mouth shapes. Then they begin a trip through ad-land, where there are ads on buses and billboards. The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level.

The Admongo game takes players inside a home, to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found. It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing.

One such area is food marketing. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) says it is a big business. The FTC estimates that food, drink and fast-food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2010.

The FTC says children are important for three reasons. They buy products. They influence parents and caregivers to buy. And they are the future adult buyers of the products.

A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value. First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children.

1.What is the best title of the text?

A．The guide of Admongo

B．An education website for children

C．A popular online video game

D．A website aimed at children

2.Why did the government start the website?

A．To attract the biggest market of buyers.

B．To sell the products of its company.

C．To help children know about advertising.

D．To advertise the video game for children.

3.The underlined word “identify” can be replaced by _________.

A．recognize B．inform C．persuade D．forbid

4.What can players do in the website game?

A．Choose hair styles for their character.

B．Travel to a supermarket.

C．Eat in a fast-food restaurant.

D．Play video games during the trip.

5.Children are important for advertising because they are _________.

A．important for the society B．the most potential buyers

C．easily influenced by ads D．easily affected by poor products

During the years when I was a teacher, I learned a lot of things. Perhaps the most important one was the life-changing 16 of encouraging words.

I 17 what Leo Buscaglia had done with his students in University of Southern California. In one class Leo Buscaglia and his students had made two lists of 18 , one positive and one negative. Then they 19 the negative words in the trash and tried to use only the 20 words for one month. They were 21 at how much better their lives became just by using words full of 22 .

I decided to try this as well by 23 something good to write on each paper my students 24 . No matter how many mistakes a student’s paper 25 , there was always a 26 sentence, beautiful thought, or a great idea that I could 27 on. I remember glancing over my desk and 28 some of the students reading those encouraging words 29 . It was a joy seeing their eyes shine a little brighter, their 30 sit up a little straighter, and their learning climb a lot 31 .

I recently saw one of my 32 students and we talked for a while. He has got married, and has two children now. As I was saying goodbye, he said, “You know I 33 have a few of those old papers. I look at them from time to time. I just 34 my kids have a good teacher like you.” I was amazed at the 35 those few positive words had on his life.
