13．Believe it or not.he will stop showing off in no time if is taken of him．( )A．no attentio——青夏教育精英家教网—

12．A child sits at his desk waiting for the teacher to hand back his test and praying that it is not sprayed with red marks．Fellow students in the classroom know a paper that has several red markings on it will usually receive a lower grade．The child with many red markings on his test will quickly fold the paper and stuff it into his desk in the hope that no one will see his test．
There is an education movement to retire the reds for softer colors of purple，green，and blue pens to mark students'work．Many educators understand the psychological harm the constant red markings on the paper do to a child's self-esteem．After a child receives his test back with countless red markings there is a rare chance that he will bother to find out his errors．It is too embarrassing in the classroom to examine his errors and also many children do not want to show their parents their red stained test．
The purpose of grading a paper or test is to identify the child's weakness and offer suggestions to improve their ability in a specific subject．Red markings are too bold for the student to calmly understand their errors； instead they become upset and begin their self-critical dialogue．No student wants to fail； they just do not know how to excel．
All colors have an influence on our state of mind．Red is a powerful color that gives us energy．Colors such as blues and greens are calming colors to the body．Hospitals often have doctors wear blue or green scrubs because it relaxes the patient on a subconscious level．I have never seen a doctor wear red scrubs because it will stress the patient．Remember this when you decide to mark a child'paper with red，the color of blood．

11．Do you suppose Darwin，one of the greatest scientists of all time，really did fools'experiments？Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish？
Sometimes，people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution（解决办法）to a problem．Sometimes，they really do know an answer or a solution，but without thinking they are important．
Charles Darwin didn't settle for（满足于）just thinking he knew something．And，he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be．
Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape．If you drop them at the same time in the same place，they will fall in the same way．Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight（紧的）little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets．What happens？You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn't be worth anything．
But this simple experiment is important．It explains part of our present day understandings of physics ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton．And these understandings set aside some of ancient Greek physics．
Scientist sometimes stops to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them．Even the simplest idea，which we might think is foolish，can shake the foundations of science．

7．One Sunday，my family had gathered at my parents'house to feast upon Mom's wonderful cooking．During the normal dinner chatter （闲聊），I noticed that my father was slurring （说话含混） his words．No one mentioned this during dinner，but I felt compelled to discuss it with my mother afterward．
We decided that there was something seriously wrong and that Dad needed to see the doctor．
Mom phoned me two days later．"The doctor found a brain tumor （肿瘤）．It's too large at this point to operate．Maybe they can do something then，but the odds are long．"
Even with the treatment，my father's condition worsened，and the doctor finally informed us that this condition was terminal （晚期的）．During one of his stays in the hospital，we brought our baby daughter Chelsey with us when we visited him．By this time he had great difficulty speaking．I finally figured out that he wanted Chelsey to sit on his stomach so he could make faces at her．
Watching the two of them together，I realized I was living an experience that would stay with me forever．Though grateful for the times they could share，I couldn't shake the feeling of a clock ticking in the background．?
On the visit to my parents'home during what we all know was my father's last days，my mother took Chelsey from my arms and announced，"Your father would like to see you alone for a minute．"
I entered the bedroom where my father lay on a rented hospital bed．He appeared even weaker than the day before．
"How are you feeling，Dad？"I asked．"Can I do anything for you？"
He tried to speak，but he couldn't make out a word．
"I'm sorry，but I can't understand you，"I said．
With great difficulty he said，"I love you．"
We don't learn courage from heroes on the evening news．We learn true courage from watching ordinary people rise above hopeless situations．In many ways my father was a strict，uncommunicative man．He found it difficult to show emotion．The bravest thing I ever saw him do was overcome that barrier to open his heart to his son and family at the end of his life．

4．Beginning college is exciting：new ideas to explore，new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made； your future begins here．
However，you will find college life is different from your previous school environment．Many of us can be easily defeated by the details of running a well-balanced life．While some of us may have the know-how，I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you．
The following you may find useful about life on campus：
•Plan well．There are so many new things to do at a new college or university．Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus，but don't forget why you are there．Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely．
•If you don't have a"system"for planning your time now （like a day timer，a computer data book），get one．Most of all，don't depend on your memory．
•Don't miss the guidelines．The restrictions，rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student's handbook．Consider them well-balanced food for thought．What dates are important？What pieces of paper need to be handed in？What can/can't you do in your student residence（住处）？Who has the right for what？What do you need to complete to graduate？
•Write the word"STUDY"on the walls of your bedroom and bathroom，and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone，TV and the kitchen table．Consider this-you are paying thousands of dollars for your course．You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course．
•Build your identity．This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do．Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas．Do not be afraid of the beyond．This is learning to make good choices．
