Red envelops have related to the Chinese Lunar New Year for long. I myself have had plenty of experiences both receiving and giving our red envelops in the past and 1.I mean, who doesn’t love free money?

I’m truly surprised by the degree of people’s obsession(迷恋) with red envelops this year. In fact, everyone I know spent at least a day or two crazily shaking their smart phones2.Thanks to messaging app WeChat’s new feature that allows users to send money electronically, grabbing red envelopes has never seemed so easy.

Just in case you are one of the very few people who still can’t be involved in the game,3.Givers link their WeChat(微信) to their bank accounts, and then they can send specified amounts of money to their WeChat contacts through a personal message. They can also put the cash up for grabs in chat group full of friends, and anyone who acts fast enough will get a share. Later, receivers can transfer the funds from their WeChat back into their own bank accounts.

4.I’m always for some harmless fun in life, so my natural response would be: why not? Moreover, I’ve always believed that it’s human nature to want free stuff, regardless of whether you actually need it or not. This may not be a good quality, but it’s not against the law, so I won’t get all judgmental here.5.I really can’t blame anyone for their enthusiasm in grabbing red envelops. I would have done it too, had I not thought linking WeChat to my bank accounts was too much trouble.

A. Considering these reasons,

B. here’s how it works.

C. generally speaking, it’s been fun.

D. In theory, this sounds like a fun game.

E. In terms of all the advantages above,

F. mostly trying to get as much as lucky money as possible.

G. In fact, it does harm to our life.

Step into an American preschool classroom today and you are likely to fall into a so-called print-rich environment,every surface colorfully decorated with instructional posters,classroom rules,chedules,and mottos,few of which a 4-year-old can understand in fact.

Besides the confusing things on classroom walls,teaching methods and curriculums have changed recently,by which more time is spent on what’s called “seat work”一workbooks and worksheets—but less time devoted to music and art.School—readiness skills are essential for the youngest learners to move on to a subsequent stage. As a result, expectations that may arguably have been reasonable for 5-and 6-year-olds, such as bemg able to sit at a desk and using pencil and paper,are now directed at even younger children, who lack the motor skills and attention span to be successful.

However,parents of preschoolers tend to be on board with these changes,because they fear that the old—fashioned pleasures of unhurried learning have no place in today’s highly competitive world.The stress is obvious:Pick the “wrong” preschool and your child might not go to college.She might not be employable. She might not even be allowed to start first grade!

As preschoolers are learning so much academic knowledge at earlier ages,they seem somehow less curious and less engaged.Some teachers say that more children today seem to lack the language skills.The real focus in the preschool years should not be just on vocabularv and reading,but on talking and listening.By talking with adults, and one another,they pick up information,learn how things work and solve puzzles that trouble them.For our littlest learners,what could be more important than that?

1.Which of the statements does the author probably agree with?

A.Younger children can fully understand the instructional things in classrooms.

B.3-and 4-year-olds shouldn’t be expected too much in school readiness skills.

C.More time should be spent on“seat work’’ instead of music and art.

D.Even 5-and 6-year-olds have good motor skills and attention span.

2.The underlined phrase “be on board with” in the third paragraph most probably means “ ”.

A.accept B.reject C.doubt D.worry

3.Why are parents so picky when choosing a preschool for their kids?

A.Because some preschools are too old fashioned.

B.Because a wrong preschool might ruin kids’ future.

C.Because the competitions between kindergartens are fierce.

D.Because it is easy for them to choose a right preschool.

4.What’s the best title of the passage?

A.New Preschool Breaking down the Kids.

B.The Early Bird Gets the Worm.

C.Preschool,the Gatekeeper to Elementary School?

D.Seat work,a Better Choice for the Youngest Kids?

Clive Roberts.a director at ELS Educational Services,says English tests are changing greatly in response to the global growth in the use of English as a lingua franca—the common language used among people with I different native languages.For that reason,a lot of new tests are being developed while old tests are being improved to meet the needs of universities and employers worldwide.

Changes in language testing

“A lot of tests are now delivered online,all four skills are being tested,in some cases,by computer,in particular speaking and writing skills,which are the most difficult to assess on a computer environment,”says Mr.Roberts.

Computer testing will reduce the length of time required for testing,because the tests adjust to the test-taker’s ability.These computer-adaptive tests also increase accuracy in scoring.Computer-a- daptive tests change depending on the test-taker’s responses.They can become more or less difficult during the testing session.For this reason,the set of correct answers will be different for each test-taker.

Cultural sensitivity

Another change to language testing relates to cultural sensitivity.The term refers to material on a test that is based on a certain culture or is hard for test-takers from different cultures to understand.

Mr.Roberts says test development companies are now hiring people with intercultural communication backgrounds to review test items.The companies want to make sure the test does not upset test-takers.

Proficiency(精通程度)in language

Changes to English proficiency tests make them better at measuring the learners’ability.However,Mr.Roberts says the changes may mean the tests are more difficult for some students.

“The tests have become more proficiency-oriented.The items are being designed in such a way that they test real-world proficiency and not simply sort of an artificial environment or a specific set of skills that are taught in a classroom.So a lot of authentic texts,a lot of authentic listening passages are being used.”

The changes mean students have to be able to understand English the way it is used in everyday life,not just in textbooks.

1.Which of the following can best replace the underlined words“a lingua franca”in Paragraph l?

A. a universal language B.a second language

C.a native language D.a mother tongue

2.Which of the following is true about online English tests?

B.Online English tests need more time.

C.Online English tests make scoring more accurate.

D.Online English tests are more difficult.

3.Why is proficiency stressed in language testing?

A.To make the test more difficult.

B.To get learners to learn textbooks well.

C.To test learners’speaking ability.

D.To test learners’real ability to use the language.

4.which words can best describe the new English tests?

How to get teenagers to read

Getting teenagers to read sounds like a hard task. The latest Xbox or PSP has got them addicted, or the homework seems to last forever. 1. Here is a guide on how to get your teenagers to read.

2. You could look at their school homework timetable and work out which evening they have the least amount of work to do. Make sure that your teenager is not going to an out-of-school club that evening.

Buy your teenagers a new set of books. Research the book lists for teenagers. The Chaos Walking Trilogy and The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy are suited for both boys and girls. If your teenager will never sit down to read a book, consider buying them an electronic reader like an Amazon Kindle Paperwhite to encourage them to read. Make sure that the electronic reader you buy can only be used to read. 3.

Seize opportunities. If they seem unimpressed then whenever you see them not doing anything constructive, encourage them to pick up one of the books you bought. If they say they don’t want the book then take them out to buy some in a bookstore. 4.

Consider punishments. 5. This doesn’t work for everyone but some people find that when your teenager messes up, you can tell them to go to their room and read. They might start to really enjoy the book.

A. Don’t be afraid of wasting money.

B. Electronic readers are harmful to teenagers’ eyesight.

C. Figure out what time is best for your teenager to read.

D. If they still refuse then you could use reading as a punishment.

E. But getting them to pick up a book is a lot easier than it sounds.

F. You’re sure to pick out a book that they really want to read there.

G. You know they could pretend to read and actually play video games.
