1.Curiosity
Your children need to be deeply curious.(37)A Ask kids,"What ingredients (配料) can we add to make these pancakes even better next time?"and then try them out.Did those ingredients make the pancakes better?What could we try next time?
2.Creativity
True creativity is the ability to take something existing and create something new from it.(38)C There are many different things you can do with them.Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity.
3.Interpersonal Skills
Understanding how others feel can be a challenge for kids.We know what's going on inside our own head,but what about others?Being able to read people helps kids from misreading a situation and jumping to false conclusions.(39)F"Why do you think she's crying?""Can you tell how that man is feeling by looking at his face?""If someone were to do that to you,how would you feel?"

19.When we think about the dreams we have,it is surprising to see how many people failed even if they could have succeeded.So today I'm going to tell you five ways to kill your dreams.
•Believe in overnight success.
Everyone knows the story of a tech guy who built a mobile app and sold it for a lot of money.(31)C If you investigate further,you will find that he is well educated and has been working on the project for 20years.Therefore,your overnight success is always a result of what you've done in your life.
•(32)G
Constantly,people around you always have opinions on which path you should take.But whichever way you choose,there are other ways you have to pick as well.And one day you need to solve those problems yourself.
•Decide to rest when success is guaranteed.
When your life is going great and everything is set-time to rest.Actually,when you're growing towards a peak,you need to work even harder and find yourself another peak.If you were content with what you've accomplished,it would stop you from a greater success.(33)F
•Believe the fault is someone else's.
I constantly see people saying,"I created this great product,but the market is so bad."If you have dreams,it's your responsibility to make them happen.Yes,the market may be bad.But if no one bought your product,surely there is something there that is your fault.(34)D
•Believe that the only thngs that matter are the dreams themselves.
Achieving a dream is a short moment,but your life is not.(35)E And the only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey.

A.When we ace difficulties,believe in ourselves.
B.The overnight success inspires so many people.
C.The story may seem real,but I bet it's incomplete.
D.Be responsible for your own dreams.
E.Life is never about the goals themselves.
F.There's no time to settle down.
G.Believe someone else has the answers for you.
13.One of the most important things in the world is friendship.In order to have friends,you have to be a friend.But how can you be a good friend at school?
Listen-Listen when they are talking.Don't say anything unless they ask you a question.Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.
Help them-If your friend is ever in need of something,be there to help them.You should try to put them first,but make sure you don't do everything they want you to do.Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one.Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.
Be there for them-Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times.Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend.Marilyn Monroe,a famous U.S.actor,once said,"I often make mistakes.Sometimes I am out of control.But if you can't stay with me at my worst,you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best."Always remember this!If you don't want to stay with your friends when they're in hard times,then you don't deserve to be with them when they're having a good time!
             -Try to make plans with your friends.Go shopping,go for ice cream,have a party,go to a movie and so on.Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy.By planning things together,you both can have a good time.And you'll remember these things when you're all old!

20.Snow can be very beautiful.When snow covers everything around you,the world looks like a"Winter Wonderland".That is the name of a very popular song about winter.Richard Smith and Felix Bernard wrote the song in 1934.
But winter is not always such a beautiful and happy time.It is cold outside.The wind blows and makes it even colder.The days are shorter and darker.The sun rarely shines.The leaves on the trees are brown or have fallen to the ground.The flowers are mostly gone.It is not surprising that some people are sad in winter.And some people dream about being somewhere else where it is warm and pretty--like the state of California.The Mamas and the Papas recorded their famous song,"California Dreaming"in 1965.
During the 1960s,many other famous rock groups sang songs about winter.Here is a song by Simon and Garfunkel called"A Hazy Shade of Winter".They sing about life and hope.
In 1968,the group Blood,Sweat and Tears recorded this gentle,sad song about winter.They sing about a lost love and forgotten memories in"Sometimes in Winter".
Gordon Lightfoot wrote and recorded another sad and lovely song about winter in 1975.Sarah McLachlan recorded"Song for a Winter's Night"for an album in 2006.She sings about reading a love letter and wishing the writer were with her.
Finally,on a lovely note,we leave you this sad song by Wayne.

17.What are American high schools like?Well,I'm happy to tell you what I know.
    When I started school here,it had already been a week since the school opened.At this school,freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school.Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip,which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates.I was really sad.I wished I'd known about it earlier.
    Despite the disappointment,however,I gradually adapted to my new life and school.
    There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other.As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates,the school wants us to get to know each other there.Students usually come to school early,sit in that space and have fun.Around the space,there are many lockers for students to leave their books in,so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere.
    It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks.We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra (代数) and they are big and heavy,like bricks.For other classes,we only need binders (活页夹) with paper in them.Without textbooks,students learn things freely and actively.For example,my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time.We never know what we will learn.
    Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students'morality more than their academic studies.For example,if you do not finish your homework,you will just be asked to do it later,but if you cheat or lie,you will get a warning or even be kicked out.
    I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well,but compared to Chinese students,they can make learning a more joyful experience.I think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying.

34.What was the writer sad for?B
   A.He was late for school.  B.He missed the trip at the beginning of school.
   C.He didn't know anyone.  D.American students looked down upon him.
35.Why do students go to the basement of the teaching building?C
   A.To attend class. B.To share a classroom.
   C.To have fun.     D.To meet teachers.
36.How do teachers in the US teach the students?C
   A.However they want to.                    B.They use bricks.
   C.Some use textbooks; some teach freely.  D.They always teach as required.
37.According to the passage,in American high schools,A.
   A.you are likely to be kicked out if you cheat
   B.you'll be punished if you do not finish your homework
   C.students are better at school work than Chinese students
   D.students care much about the grades they get.
