【题目】Many Americans are turning to Japan, they think, a country of high academic(学术的) achievement and economic success, for possible answers.However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to findIn most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction.In one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education.Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents(答问卷者)listed “to give children a good start academically” as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools.In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices.To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as determination, concentration, and the ability to work as a member of a group.The huge majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.

Like in America, there is diversity(多样性) in Japanese early childhood education.Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential(潜力的) development.In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools.Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children’s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities.Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.

【1】We learn from the first paragraph that many Americans believe ________.

A. Japanese preschool education emphasizes academic instruction

B. Japanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parents

C. Japan’s economic success is a result of its scientific achievements

D. Japan’s higher education is superior to theirs

【2】In Japan’s preschool education, the focus is on ________.

A. preparing children academically

B. shaping children’s character

D. developing children’s artistic interests

【3】Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university-based kindergartens?

A. They can do better in their future studies.

B. They can make more group experience grow there.

C. They can be individually oriented when they grow up.

D. They can have better chances of getting a first-rate education.

Too many of us are waiting too long to live our best lives. We keep putting everything off until tomorrow. Then, before we know it, we find ourselves asking, "How did it get so late so soon?"

So we’d better make today the beginning of our new life. Take time to realize what we want and need. Take time to love, laugh, cry, and learn. ____【1】___ Here are five things we should start doing today:

Accept ourselves. The secret to happiness and success is the acceptance of ourselves. We will never become who we want to be if we rely on everyone else to qualify us. __【2】____ So always go with ourselves, never against ourselves. Be who we were created to be and we will set the world on fire.

Make ourselves a priority. To tell the truth, there are only a few people in this world who will stay 100% true to us, so we should stay true to ourselves. Put our own needs into the list of things to do.

___【3】____ Don’t sit back and let things happen to us. Go out and make things happen. We are what we do, not what we say we’ll do. Stop saying "I wish" and start saying "I will". Turn our dreams into plans.

Do the work. We can’t underestimate(低估) a person who always works hard. Be that person. __【4】___ Always remember that the task ahead of us is never greater than the strength within us. Do what’s right, not what’s easy. Our dreams are worth it.

____【5】____ We can’t force things to happen; we can only drive ourselves trying crazily. There’s a time and place for everything. So don’t force what’s not yet supposed to fit into our life. When it’s meant to be, it will be. Work hard, and be patient.

A. Take positive action.

B. Enjoy every moment of life.

C. Life is shorter than it often seems.

D. Everyone has a different way of life.

E. Accept ourselves just the way we are.

F. Allow life to happen like it’s supposed to.

【题目】My students often tell me that they don't have "enough time" to do all their schoolwork.

My reply is often a brief "You have as much time as the president." I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that "not enough time" is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.

Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, "That's irrelevant (无关的). What's important is the quality of your work." Since then I have had time to think carefully about the "hard worker" dodge (诀窍), and I have come to some conclusions- all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.

If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of "time", which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the problem of "work" during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it's not how hard one works but the quality of the product that's important.

That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone's office: "Don't work harder. Work smarter." There is a lot of sense in that idea.

If you can't get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since "work" for students usually means "homework", the expression "work habits" should be read as "study habits".

Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.

A. a poet B. an engineer

C. You can't improve the quality of the work if you can't get more time.

D. You'll try to improve your skills in reading and writing if you're a clever student.

Hi Grace,

How’s it going? Sorry I haven’t emailed for a while, but I had so much to do!

I had told you about my decision to take up a sport. I knew I wasn’t fit and I wanted to get some exercise. But that wasn’t the only reason that I decided to do a sport. Students who play sports do better at school. 【1】 Exercise also helps learning and memory.

2 First, I tried soccer. I had played a bit of soccer before and I thought it wouldn’t be too bad. I knew I couldn’t run for very long without feeling tired. On the first day, I was able to run for the first ten minutes, but then I was so tired that I couldn’t even kick the ball!

Then, I tried volleyball. 3 I was able to run for the first twenty minutes and I wasn’t the slowest runner in the team! After a few weeks, I could run faster and longer. I was doing better and feeling better. 4 Maybe I’m not a team sport person after all!

Finally, I tried Kung fu. It’s a great sport that exercise the body and the mind. You learn to follow instructions carefully and do what you are asked to do. This is the right sport for me! 5 I feel so confident that I even showed some moves to the class last week! Can you believe it?

I hope you’re OK! Write and let me know what you’ve been doing!

Bye for now!

Kristie

A. I got very excited about soccer.

B. But I couldn’t decide on a sport.

C. Running helps me to keep fit.

D. Things were a bit better this time.

E. Then I found volleyball terribly boring.

F. They are more confident and less stressed.

G. I practice twice a week and I haven’t missed a class.

Fondly called ‘tiny houses,’ these houses have all living necessities in a small package, including kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.Generally under 50 square meters, most tiny houses2 just one or two people though some claim the space for more.What’s lost in size is not lost in design as these homes are often quite unique and modern in design.
Besides an attractive appearance, tiny houses can also 3unique practical features.Making the best of urban space, the 72-to 122-centimeter-wide Keret House in Warsaw, the world’s narrowest home, filled in an alley(小巷).The sample home Ecocapsule uses solar power, wind power and rainwater collection to enable its owner to live practically anywhere.A system of rails allows the DALE micro-home to 4 room size and number as well as adding the option of an open or5 courtyard.
As visually 6 as micro-homes are, there are a few disadvantages to consider before getting comfortable on a minicouch.Moving into a tiny house requires the 7 of most non-essentials, no matter the emotional connection to them.Guests will also mostly be out of the question as the limited space may even cause a(n) 8 individual to experience some cabin fever.And finally, a mico-home is likely a temporary living option for most people since they will probably start families and acquire more 9.
Though the limitation will scare some, there is usually a benefit.A small size results in a small price tag and small bills, making tiny houses easier to save up for and 10.And though you won’t have much stuff around the house, this can provide the comfort of simple living and maintenance.Micro-homes are also practically mobile and claim eco-friendliness that can’t be matched by other homes.They probably aren’t for everyone or forever, but when it comes to your next (or first) home, they could be just what you need.
A. accommodate
B. alternative
C. boast
D. budget

F. enclosed
G. maintaining
H. possessions
I. regulate
