Polly Townsend
PART THREE  READING COMPREHENSION
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. (20%)
A
“Mummy, I don’t know what to play with. ” Steve interrupts his mother, who is talking to a friend, for the fourth time. “You’ve got a room full of toys!” his mother says, impatiently, In fact it is the jumble of toys which is to blame for four -year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed (packed)animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother’s desk or following her into the kitchen saying: “Mummy, I am bored.”
A family therapist(治疗专家)explains why children lose interest when they have a whole “toy shop” at home : “According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest is left lying about.” What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child’s knowledge. If he/she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and holds the toys and books that are the current(at present)favorites. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired from a cupboard in another room. The box of “old” toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is “bored”, they also get something from her cupboard—it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn’t seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.
  Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the comer, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something “fresh” to play with.
66. Steve interrupted his mother several times because________.
  A. he felt uninterested in his toys              B. he disliked his mother’s guest
  C. he didn't have enough toys to play with        D. he hoped his mother would play with him
67. According to the therapist, children often complain that they have nothing, to play with because________.
  A. they can’t play alone for a long time
  B. they are too young to play with so many toys
  C. they are too lazy to pick out their favorites
  D. they lack the ability to value too many things at a time
68. Which of the following can be used in place of the underlined word “jumble ”?
  A. Simple choice.                          B. Mixture in disorder.
  C. Ordinary appearance.                    D. Same shape.
69. Which is the advice given to parents in the text?________.
  A. Buy fewer toys for their children        
B. Form good habits for their children
  C. Spare some time to play with their children   
D.Put some toys away without telling their children
