To keep your family time creative and enjoyable, below is a list of helpful family time tips.

1. Eat together & listen to each other

communication and unity built during this time is necessary to a healthy family life. Sharing a meal together allows parents and their children the opportunity to talk about each others lives. 2 .

试题分析:

【1G考查对上下文语境的理解。根据第一段中的“Nowadays parents and their children are spending less and less time communicating with each other.”可知,现在父母和孩子们在一起交流的时间越来越少。结果会怎么样呢?因为在一起的时间少,所以双方交流就少,孩子从父母那儿得到的指导和关爱就少了,不如以前多了。“As a result, many children are getting less love than their parents once got.”符合语境。选择G项。

【2】F考查对上下文语境的理解。根据第二段的标题“Eat together & listen to each other”和段中的“Sharing a meal together allows parents and their children the opportunity to talk about each other’s lives.”可知,父母和孩子在一起吃饭,让他们有机会谈谈彼此的生活,这也让父母有时间听听孩子的心里话,并给孩子一些指导意见。“This is also a time for parents to listen and give advice to their children.”符合语境。选择F项。

【3】D 考查对上下文语境的理解。根据第三段中的“It’s important for parents to read to their children. The latest research shows that reading to your children develops an interest in knowledge and contributes to language development. It also increases their concentration on things and helps them become more curious.”可知,父母给孩子读书是很重要的,这有助于培养孩子对知识的兴趣和孩子的语言能力的发展,同时也能增加孩子对事物的注意力和好奇心。既然给孩子读书这么有意义,那么就应该多找些孩子喜欢读的书。“Look for books that your children would enjoy reading.”符合语境。选择D项。

【4B考查对上下文语境的理解。根据第四段中的“Choose a fun activity that your children are interested in. Activities like cooking, fishing or biking can be their great hobbies.”可知,父母要选择孩子感兴趣的趣味活动。对孩子来说,烹饪、钓鱼和骑车等活动就是不错的爱好。孩子有了这些爱好,全家人在一起的时间就会增多,这些活动爱好为活跃全家人在一起时的气氛打开了一道门。“They can open the door to exciting family time.”符合语境。选择B项。

【5】C考查对上下文语境的理解。根据第五段的标题“Plan a family outing”和段中的“Jump into the family car and go for a drive.”可知,可以安排全家人一起外出,钻进汽车,驾车出游。为什么要这样做呢?因为要增进家人之间的情感,偶尔从家里出来一下透透气也是很重要的。“Sometimes getting out of the house is important.”符合语境。选择C项.

A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation early on were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible .Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn’t show up on an IQ test.

The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists’ concerns. But brain theory can’t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.

Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people’s success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.

EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one’s ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put ntelligence to use. Among the elements for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.

While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.

【1】The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that______ .

A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment

B. emotional intelligence won’t show up until adolescence

C. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success

D. candy can be used to measure a person’s emotional intelligence

【2】The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means______ .

A. kind B. floating C. excited D. cheerful

【3】Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?

A. To amuse both the children and readers.

B. To prove the scientist’s wisdom.

C. To introduce the topic of the text.

D. To show us how to do an IQ test.

A stress ball is a small ball designed to help relieve stress by exercising the muscles in the hand. Actually, a stress ball does not necessarily have to be shaped like a ball. 【1 The main characteristic is that it can fit easily in a hand, and it is changeable, allowing a user to squeeze it out of shape while providing some resistance to force the muscles of the hand to work.

2 Squeezing a stress ball while imagining a reduction in stress is a frequently-recommended stress management tool for people in demanding jobs. Stress balls are often given away at conferences and other corporate events as promotional tools, reflecting their widespread use.

In addition to this, a stress ball can be useful for physical strain. Physical therapists use a very similar tool to help people flex and stretch the muscles in their hands. Squeezing a stress ball can reduce the amount of strain associated with repetitive tasks like typing. 3 .

A variety of things can be used to fill a stress ball. The filling should be firm, with a bit of give to it, forcing people to work to deform the stress ball. You can make your own basic stress ball by filling a balloon with corn starch(淀粉). Beans and plastic granules(颗粒) may also be used. 4 .

Using a stress ball doesn’t require any particular instructions or skills. 5 Repeated use of a stress ball can, of course, cause the same problems that other repetitive motions are associated with, but taking breaks from typing and other repetitive tasks to squeeze a stress ball a few times can be beneficial.

A. However, these fillings are less smooth.

B. Also, it can help to develop hand strength.

C. All you need to do is pick the ball and squeeze it.

D. A wide variety of shapes can be found on the market.

E. One of the best handmade gifts for men is a stress ball.

F. Stress balls are supposed to be very useful for mental stress relief.

G. This can be easily cured by keeping something like a stress ball in the hand.

注意:每个空格只填一个单词。

Commercial advertisement was once thought of as a technique of the marketers to inform the potential buyers about the availability of certain products. It was seen more as a medium to inform the buyers rather than persuade them to buy. The present day marketers see advertisement as a medium to damage the image of their competitors and their products. This indeed, is an undesirable and an immoral practice. Instead of speaking about their own products, these marketers speak about the drawbacks (often without any basics) of the competing products.

People watching TV advertisements would notice that there has always been an advertisement war between the marketers of different consumer goods. A few such cases are given below.

1. Parachute Coconut Oil vs. V.V.D. Gold

Some time back, the producer of V.V.D Gold Coconut Oil claimed in their TV advertisement that only their products was superior and the one sold in blue colour bottles (the reference was to Parachute coconut oil) was suitable only for un-natural hair.

2. Tata Salt vs. Captain Cook

Tata salt was first iodised (碘处理) salt marketed by an Indian Company. It has been enjoying a good and steady market. Captain Cook, another producer of iodised salt, who entered the market later, had to adopt some strategy to get control of the market. The TV advertisement of Captain Cook stressed on ‘Free flow’ of their salt when transferred to a container. The producer of Tata Salt retaliated (报复) by saying that the claim of Captain Cook was a trick and those who were quality conscious should deal with it with caution.

3. Pepsi vs. Coco Cola

Coca Cola was selected as the official soft drink for the Wills World Cricket 1996. When the cricket series was on, the marketers of Pepsi constantly advertised on TV. Their advertisement gave the idea that the cricketers preferred only Pepsi and as a matter of fact there was nothing official about it.

4. Horlicks vs. Complan

Sometime back, the TV advertisement of Complan, a health drink directly attacked Horlicks, which has been in the market for several decades. The claim of Complan was that their brand (which according to them was Brand C) has a higher percentage of ingredients (材料) compared to Brand H (reference was nothing but to Horlicks).

The above examples clearly show how the technique of advertisement is misused by some marketers to ruin the image of their competitors. This, certainly, is not a healthy trend.

Any marketer should only speak about his products and not about his competitors’ products. The awareness of consumers has certainly increased over the years and they are no longer easily taken in. There are many consumer products like salt, oil shaving blades etc. But one thing for sure is that offering the same product in a different container will not make the product different.

Mass media like Radio, Television and newspaper should not allow advertisements that tell lies. Legal regulations, in this regard, should also be made stricter.
