8．Finding the right school for your child is a process．You will want to read about the school，talk to any friends who are involved in the school and，most important of all，visit the school．
The first step in finding out about Indian Creek is to request an information packet．We will be happy to send you a packet containing a brochure（小册子），the fee structure and an application．The packet should answer most of your general questions about the school．
In order to get a true sense of Indian Creek School，you should come for an Admission Tour，which includes a personal meeting focusing on your child，a tour of the building and the classrooms，and a discussion of the curriculum（课程）．
This visit is no less important if the child for whom you are seeking admission is a teenager than if he or she is a three-year-old one．Every school has a different"school climate．"If you visit two or three schools，you will notice that each"feels"different．You know your child best and you will quickly develop a sense of whether a school is the right match or not．
The initial point of entry for Indian Creek Students is at the pre-kindergarten level for three year olds．
Children must be three years old by August 31st．
We also have major points of entry from grade six to grade nine．At each of these levels，we open new sections and accept students in addition to those moving up from our own lower grades．
There are scattered（零散的） openings available throughout the program due to attrition（学生流失）．Once an opening occurs，students spend a day at ICS，part of which includes admission testing．

Last summer，my parents and I had my holiday in Hainan．Before the trip we book plane tickets and hotels on the Internet and got some informations about the places we were going to visit．It was very hot in Hainan that neither of us could stand the heat．Lucky for us，it rained in the first afternoon．The next day，we went to the seaside and lay on the bench，enjoying the beautiful scenery．On third day，we went shopping together and buying lots of seafood for our friends．Although the trip was short，but we had great fun．
3．Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches（路沟） along the  highway I travel daily to work．
    There is one particular blue flower that has alwayscaught my eye．I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours，the afternoon sun is too warm for it．Every day for  approximately two weeks，I see those beautiful flowers．
    This spring，I started a wildflower garden in our yard．I can look out of the kitchen  window while doing the dishes and see the flowers．I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers．
    Every day I drove past the flowers thinking，"I'll stop on my way home and dig them．""Gee，I don't want to get my good clothes dirty…"I had wanted to stop and dig them but I didn't make it anyhow．My husband even gave me a folding shovel（钎）one year to be used for that expressed purpose．
    One day on my way home from work，I was saddened to see that the highway  department had mowed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone．I thought to  myself，"Way to go，you waited too long．You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring．''
    A week ago we were shocked and saddened to know that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor（脑瘤晚期）．She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately，because of age and distance，we haven't been as close as we all would have liked．
    I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us．I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us．
    And yes，if I see the blue flowers again，you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden．

13．Every afternoon hundreds of thousands of youth fill Internet cafes，switch on a game console （游戏机），or otherwise sit down to enter fantasy worlds．I'm talking about video games．These games can be fun and exciting，but we need to look out when this pastime becomes an addiction．
Games are often quite exciting and dramatic，but they generally aren't very intellectual．We don't learn as much from them as we would only reading a book．Spending too much time playing them can take away our study time．We need to remember that we are students first．Nothing should ever get in the way of proper studying．
Video games can also be a bad effect on younger children who may be watching．Many video games are violent and the object in most of them is to kill the other player（s）．This does not send the right message to the children who need to be told that violence is not acceptable and need to be taught how to deal with situations maturely．Even if we do need to sit down and play a violent video game，we need to make sure that it does not affect the younger people around us．
Playing a computer game in our spare time is not a bad thing．Games can be a great way to relax after studying，to connect to our friends，or just to help our creativity．However，games should not become the focus of our life．We need to make sure that playing games never interferes with our studies and that we aren't thinking about them all day．If we ever find ourselves playing them too much，we need to break the addiction．If that happens，we need to step away from the computer or television screen and learn to spend our time more productively．

60．The writer mainly tells the readersB．
A．to play computer games every afternoon
B．not to play computer games too much
C．not to affect other people while playing games
D．to spend more time studying
61．The writer thinks about computer games all of the following exceptC．
A．exciting           B．dramatic           C．intellectual          D．violent
62．Computer games may have bad effect on younger children becauseC．
A．these children often stay in Internet cafes all day long
B．children often forget to do their lessons
C．computer games are often violent
D．children don't have enough money to play computer games

A．not to affect younger people around

D．to teach younger children how to play computer games．
20．I remember a time I went shopping on my first visit to Macau．Coming from cold and cloudy England，I was prepared for the sun and dresssed in a T-shirt and a short skirt．Not having much chance to enjoy the sun in the UK and having naturally fair skin，my legs are very white．In the UK this is not a fashionable（时尚的） look at all．Most women spend every sunny day out in the sun trying to get darker skin．The darker the skin，the better the look．
As I walked around one shop，the two shop assistants didn't take their eyes off me the whole time，talking quietly in Chinese．I began to feel uncomfortable and asked my friend if we could leave．After we left the shop，she asked me what was wrong．I was embarrassed that they were talking about my white skin．My friend laughed．"They were not laughing at you．They were saying how nice your legs are．Many Chinese women want to have white skin like yours．In fact，there are many beauty products in the shops to make skin whiter and a lot of money is spent on them．"
It just goes to show that we always think what others have is better．The grass is always greener on the other side．If the women of the West and East thought the same way，Western women wouldn't spend so much money on cream that makes skin darker and women from the East wouldn't need to use cream that makes skin whiter．

81．What is the writer telling about？
her first shopping in Macau
82．What did the writer prepare to do during her visit？
She prepared to enjoy the sun and get darker skin
83．Why did the writer want to leave the shop at once？
Because she thought the shop assistants were laughing at her white skin．
84．Why did the writer think the shop girls were laughing at her？
Because they didn't take their eyes off her the whole time
85．What does the underlined sentence"The grass is always greener on the other side"mean？
It means people always think what others have is better．
17．Is there someone you hate？Well，maybe you don't really hate them．But you get really angry every time you think of them．If you don't let this anger go，it can turn into bitterness （痛苦）．
Bitterness appears when we can't forgive （原谅） someone who has hurt us or made us angry．Someone might say or do something that hurts us．But instead of controlling the anger，we keep it deep inside．Before long，a bitter feeling begins to grow．We may think we're hurting that person by criticizing （指责） him or her often，but we're really only hurting ourselves．
Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease，but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members．No one enjoys being around an angry person for very long．
If you see bitterness in your life，here are some ways to deal with it．
Accept it
Instead of trying to deny your anger，make it clear to yourself and accept it．See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it．
Stop making excuses for it
You may feel you have a right to be angry．You may think you're right and the other person is wrong．You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad．But in the end，bitterness hurts you much more than the other person．The bitterness will hold you back，and the other person will go on with his or her life．
Forgive and forget it
You probably can't completely put the anger out of your mind．But you can decide to forgive the other person．Forget it and move on．You'll enjoy better health and peace of mind．

36．According to the passage，we might get angry when someoneD．
A．holds us back       B．forgets us

11．Should parents ever hit their children？
Research suggests many of us are likely to respond"no"，and public support for spanking（打屁股） has been falling over the years．But surverys also show that 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to spanking their child at least once．
I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect，and my parents often turned to physical punishment．And，no，I don't feel I was damaged by it．
Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children．
But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer．
Two years ago，Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive．
Murray Straus，professor at the University of New Hampshire in America，has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades．He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers（同等的人）．It may be that children with lower IQqs were more likely to get spanked，but the punishment may have been counterpoductive（反作用的） to their mental development，as well．
Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks（用巴掌打） on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit．
Last year，Marjorie Gunnoe，a psychologist at Calvin College，studied teens who have never spanked．There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physi punished．Gunnoe's research suggests they don't turn out any better than those who were sometimes spank．
There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers（脾气）．But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical puishment．
57．According to the first three paragraphs，the author was probably hit by her parents whenB．
A．they were dissatisfied with her grade    
B．she showed no respect for the elder
C．they cannot control their temper   
D．their discipline turns out to be not strict enough
58．According to Murray Straus，children who are physically punishedD．
A．are less aggreesive toward others when they get older
B．have slower physical development
C．benefit from occasional spanking
D．may develop lower IQs than their peer
59．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article？D
A．40 percent of children grow up without ever being spanked
B．Children who suffer less physical punishment are better students
C．Occasional open-handed spanking on the bottom are mentally harmful
D．Researchers disagree over whether smacking is mentally harmful to children
60．The author seems to agree thatC．
A．parents should determine whether a child needs to be smacked or not
B．children who have been spanked tend to behave better than those who haven't
C．good parents discipline their children in a fair and reasonable way
D．physical punishment should be the last resort of any parent．
