题目内容

A woman's home is her castle.She cleans,cooks,decorates,repairs,works,plays and relaxes within the walls of her home.Sometimes women choose to stay at home to raise their children instead of working outside of the home. So you think she must be bored.I was one of those women.

After finally getting pregnant,and giving birth,I found my home to be the best place.During the nine months I carried my daughter,my body had been broken and back.Being able to relax was just what my weak body needed. Besides,nursing was a rest because I was unhurried and very comfortable.Staying at home certainly cured my broken body.

Watching other families grow one child after the next was a horrible dream,when I didn’t think I would ever be able to have my own child.But after having Alyssa,my own cute little baby girl,I was able to let my heart recover from the wounds.I watched and I valued every small change of her body and personality.Nothing was more exciting than time spent with my child.I loved to stay at home.

Mentally I remained challenged with new opportunities every day.I learned to be perfect and organized. Everything worked like a clock.By 9:00 in the morning,the house was clean—beds made,bathrooms cleaned,house cleaned,and windows cleaned.I enjoyed finishing them quickly so that I could devote most of the day to my daughter. Between nursing,short breaks and staring at her,I thought of ways to improve my home and myself.Even with all the housework,every day was filled with so much fun!

Blind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their own unique worth, imitation appears attractive; to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.

In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else’s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child’s bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.

In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地）hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.

In the field of entertainment, our culture praises and admires celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.

Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.

Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve you. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors’ tragedies and declare victory, and know that they are cheering me on.”

1.Imitation proves useful when you _______.

A. know you are unique B. lose the balance of life

C. begin to learn something new D. get tired of routine practice

2.To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should _______.

A. forget daily fear and pain B. choose the right role models

C. ask others for decisions D. stay away from stars

3.According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are _______.

A. desperate to influence others with their knowledge

B. ready to turn their original ideas into reality

C. eager to discover what their ancestors did

D. willing to accept others’ ideas

4.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?

A. To highlight the importance of creativity.

B. To criticize the characters of role models.

C. To compare imitation with creation.

D. To explain the meaning of success.

When trying to learn some skills of doing homework, you need help from parents or other grown-ups. 1. Someday, you’ll be older and you’ll need to do things without their help.

As you grow up, you will be responsible for more and more of the work yourself. If you pay attention to how your parents or teachers help with your homework, you’ll be able to do it by yourself when the time comes. And that time is soon. Good grades aren’t the only benefit.2..

Sometimes students take too long to get started, put off the homework, or have trouble focusing. 3. Sometimes they don’t think they can do it well. You need help from teachers and parents for this. It’s normal to be worried about what will happen if you fail, but try to trust yourself and give it your best.

4. Tell parents or teachers what the problem is. Some kids have problems with attention, which can make it tougher to organize, focus and get it done. But they, too, can and should use this 1-2-3 method to get better at completing tasks.

Help from grown-ups can be a little boost (提升)that helps you get ready to do it on your own. Who knows? 5. Many grown-ups struggle with doing complicated tasks like how to plan a whole week’s dinners. If your parent is faced with such tough tasks, you know what advice to give:1. Get organized. 2. Stay focused. 3. Get it done.

A.You might even be able to help your parents.

B.In fact, their help will do you harm instead of good.

C.Perhaps they wait for adults to tell them what to do.

D.If you’re struggling, don’t be afraid to keep asking for help.

E.But remember that it’s not good for them to do the work for you.

F.That is because they don’t understand what they’re supposed to be doing.

G.The more tasks you can do well on your own, the better you’ll feel about yourself.
