He asked among his friends to see if anyone was particularly   to buy a cheap car,but they all knew that it was falling to pieces,so  5  of them had any desire to buy it.

The next morning,at ten quarter,Dave parked the car in the square outside his front door,  16  to wait there for the person who had   17  his advertisement.Even Dave had to   18  that the car really looked like a wreck.Then soon after he had got the car as   19  as it could be,a police car stopped just behind him and a policeman got out.He looked at Dave's car and then said,“Have you reported this   20  to us yet,sir?”

根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Early Childhood Education

  Early childhood education is the formal(正规的)teaching and care of young children.It primarily focuses on learning through playing to encourage the child's different kinds of development.  1  

  Studies with Head Start programs throughout the United States have shown some evidence that there are quite a few advantages to early childhood education, which can produce significant gains in children's learning and development.Compared to a child who does not attend pre-school, children completing their early education programs are found to be better at math and reading skills.They are excited to learn and have the tools to do so.  2   These children are more competent in their pre-school, kindergarten and school-age years, and they are usually reported as “friendlier” by parents and the children's peers(同伴).

    3   In studies with matched control groups, more students who had early schooling experiences were employed at the age of 19, fewer were on welfare, and fewer were involved with the criminal activity.What's more, some studies show that children attending pre-school are more likely to graduate and have higher education, and be well integrated(综合)as an adult.

  Early childhood education gives most children a jump-start on education for their kindergarten and primary school years.It is clear that early childhood education can have some great benefits for children.  4   If early childhood education is less effective, perhaps the best model is finding strategies for allowing a parent to stay home with his or her child for at least the first two to three years.Also important is considering a child's own personality.  5  

A.The long-term influence of early education is significant as well.

B.They can benefit greatly from encouragement in their early childhood.

C.Yet its quality must be assessed to see what kind of benefits it actually provides.

D.They are also able to relate to others in a superior way and that improves their social skills.

E.Many experts of education have concerned about what early childhood education means today.

F.Individual differences in children mean that not all children will get equal benefits from early childhood education.

G.It consists of activities that serve children in the pre-school years and is designed to improve later school performance.

  Read these two advertisements, and then answer the questions.

  When you stretch out in the sun you can do one of three things.

  You can use no sun tan oil. You can use an ordinary sun tan oil. Or you can use Bergasol.

  If you don't use any sun tan oil at all when you're in sun that is stronger than you're used to, you will burn surprisingly quickly.

  If you use an ordinary sun tan oil you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree. How much depends on the“protection factor(系数)number”on the bottle.

  Some of these oils block out so many of the sun's rays you can stay in the sun all day without burning--but you won't go very brown, either.

  Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary sun tan oil. But Bergasol oil also has a tan accelerator(加速剂) which comes from the oil of the Bergamot fruit.

  It speeds up the rate at which the sun activates(激活) the skin cells that produce melanin.

  And it is melanin which gives the skin its brown colour.

  So when you use Bergasol sun tan oil you go brown faster, and as the days pass the difference will become more and more obvious.

  Unfortunately this special formulation isn't cheap to prepare. So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tan oil.

  However the price looks more attractive as you do.

  Protection

  Many people imagine that“cover-up”means you don't get a tan. Nothing to show for your holiday. What a shame.

  Not so. With“cover up”, you can get brown if you want to. The point of cover-up is to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun--the ones which, according to the experts, make your skin look older.

  That's what Solex Cover-up is all about--protection for your skin. It has a Sun Protection Factor of 8, which makes it suitable for anyone.

  Find 0ut how it works for you by consulting(咨询)the Solex Sun Chart. On sale wherever Solex is.

  With Solex Cover-up, you can tan as slowly as you like. As gently as you like. And with much less chance of peeling.

  Your tan will look better. Your skin will stay young longer. Solex Cover-up.

  Gentle tan…full protection.

1.The underlined word“tan”is closest in meaning to _____.

A.brown    B.protection

C.light     D.health

2.Both Bergasol and Solex serve to _____.

[  ]

A.treat various kinds of skin disease
