  Once upon a time,a doting mother asked Albert Einstein what she should read to her son to help him grow up as brilliant and intelligent as the famous scientist. "Fairy-tales," he said,wisely nodding his head.

  Why? Why would Albert Einstein the Nobel Prizes winning physicist recommend reading fairy-tales? Was he joking? All the evidence suggests he was deadly serious. He also said, "When I examine myself and my methods of thought,I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.”

  Childhood is one of the factors that blur(使变模糊) the distinctions between the self and oth?er objects. Thus fantasy stories appeal to children and appear to make sense to them.

  There are several commonly accepted genres(流派) of fantasy, "Animal Fantasy" which centers around the lives of lovable talking animals and "Modem Fantasy" which focuses on ad?ventures in other worlds and magical events. I am inclined to add a third genre "Human and An?imal Fantasy" , which mixes human and animal characters. Another genre of fantasy may be "High Fantasy" which features heroes who combat evil and save the world from destruction.

  Fantasy feeds a child's imagination and encourages creativity. The enjoyment that the genre engenders(产生) promotes reading and enhances literacy. Moreover, the fantasy genre may be used for teaching purposes. For example:A story about cruelty to animals would limit appeal to a child:however a fantasy celebration of closeness between the children and their pets may give an element of excitement as the children are able to save animals from someone with cruel inten?tions.

  Children love the Harry Potter series,and if they only see the movies they miss a great op?portunity to develop their reading skills by spending time with the lovable young wizards and witches(巫婆) of the Hogwarts community.

 While many of us use the Internet to enhance life through online shopping,bill paying,and surfing our interest areas,there is a "dark" side to the online world. It is common knowledge that many suffer from Internet addictions related to gambling and video games, blow,however,there is research indicating that social media use could lead to depression—Facebook may be harmful to your health.

  The online universe can be an intense emotionally-charged world and many may measure their own self-worth through unrealistic cyber perceptions. Pictures of partying peers and online postings can harm self-esteem if one is not included in the fun. Many teens that view these pages feel their life is comparatively inadequate. Additionally, a lot of kids think of Facebook as a popularity contest of who can have the most connections and post the coolest pictures.

  Facebook is also a place for teens to announce their accomplishments and receive accolades from their friends and family. This is an excellent way to use Facebook, and encouraging loved ones to participate in this manner is highly appropriate. On the opposite side of the spectrum, think about the kids who think they have nothing to post and nobody to comment about their suc?cesses.

  Lastly, cyber bullies(网络暴力) can sink victims to a new low. Bullying behavior can have the long lasting emotional effects. Online harassment(賸扰) is public and can potentially remain in cyberspace forever,often making it difficult for kids to recover or escape from an incident.

Using social media is one of the most common activities that kids engage in today. Re?search has also indicated that online interactions can have many benefits,including better techni?cal skills, enhanced communication abilities, and stronger social connections. If,however, you are not part of the "in-crowd",it could lead to depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns.

 Rising temperatures, rising sea levels and other trends are having an effect on the world's sea turtles. All female turtles come ashore at nesting beaches, dig nests in the sand,lay their eggs and then return to the sea. Erosion of nesting beaches caused by rising sea level and more intense storms adds the potential for further dangers to nesting beaches where people,dogs and rats already prey on the eggs of marine turtles.

  Climate change directly affects the reproduction of sea turtles in three ways. First, sea level rise will affect significant nesting beach areas on low-level sand beaches such as Bonaire, the Maldives and the Great Barrier Reef. Second, rising temperatures increase the chance that sand temperature will exceed the upper limit for egg incubation(姅化) ,which is 34t. Third,rising temperatures bias(使偏向) the sex ratio toward females because temperature during incubation determines the sex of the egg. Loggerhead turtle nests in Florida are already producing 90 per?cent females owing to high temperatures,and if warming raises temperatures by an additional

or more,no males will be produced there.

  Adult feeding patterns are also affected by climate change. Sea grass beds are in decline, water temperature is higher on inter-tidal sea grass fiats, and coral reefs, typically feeding grounds for green turtles, are affected by bleaching(漂白) .

  Sea turtles have existed for more than 100 million years and have survived ice ages. As a result, they may be able to respond to unfavorable nesting temperatures, by seeking out new nesting sites. It may however take decades or centuries for sea turtles to re-establish and stabilize their habitats,and steady human development of coastal areas makes the availability of new hab?itat for them very limited.

(   ) 1. What will happen if sand temperature is higher than 34^3?

    A. More females will be born.   B. Turtle eggs will not hatch.

   C. Females will lay fewer eggs.   D. Newly-born turtles will die.

(   ) 2. In what way does climate change affect adult turtles?

    A. They can't find enough food.   B. They have lost their habitat.

   C. Their feeding patterns are affected.   D. Their living habits are changed. 

(   ) 3. What can we learn about Loggerhead turtle nests in Florida?

    A. They already have an imbalanced sex ratio.

    B.They can hardly survive the high temperature.

   C.No more males are produced now.

   D.Most of them die young.

(   ) 4. We can infer from the last paragraph that______ .

   A.human development constantly threaten the survival the of sea turtles

   B.climate change can't threaten the survival of sea turtles

   C.sea turtles can get used to cold climate

   D.it's easy for sea turtles to find new habitat
