When you enter a supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk between the shelves. You carry a shopping basket w
ith your food in it.
You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk between the shelves. If you hear fast music, you walk quickly. The supermarket plays slow music. You walk slowly and have more time to buy things.
Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk by all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.
The department selling milk and milk products such as butter and milk powder is called the dairy department. Many customers like milk that has only a little butter fat in it. One store has three different jars of low fat milk. One says “1 percent fat” on the jar. The second says “99 percent fat free”, the third says “Low fat” in big letters and “1%”in small letters. As you can see, all the milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same. However, in this store the three jars of milk cost three different amounts of money. Maybe the customers will buy the milk that costs the most.
Most of the food in supermarkets is very pleasing. It all says “Buy me!” to the customers. The expensive meat says “Buy me” as you walk by. The expensive milk jar says “Buy me! I have less fat.”

It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible (有责任的)for housework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.
If you give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent.
My daughter Carla’s fifth - grade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students received less than a prefect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and declared firmly they could learn what they had missed.
You can use the same technique when you evaluate (评价)your child’s work at home. Don’t always scold and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasn’t done. If your child completes a difficult task, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.
Learning is a process(过程)of trying and failing and trying and succeeding. If you teach your children not to fear a mistake of failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.
The whole passage deals with ________.
A. social education B. school education
C. family education D. pre - school education
The author thinks that________.
A. there is no way to get children to help at home
B. the more encouragement and praise you give, the more responsible and helpful children will become
C. it is very difficult to make children responsible for housework

The article gives us a good suggestion about how to evaluate(评价)your child’s work at home. That is to ________.

D
Build the highway and watch the town grow.At first a few shops appear and maybe a restaurant.Then a hotel opens. Eventually new house are built. A village is born.
This is also how the virtual world has developed. Think of the Internet as the road carrying information between two computers.Think of the World Wide Web as the village. At first it is just a place on the virtual road where travelers meet. More travelers come bringing new kinds of information. New travelers come bringing new kinds of information.New villages are started.
Every willage has a founder.Tim Berners-Lee is the man who wrote the software programme that led to the foundation of the Word Wide Web.How did he get the idea? He tells us on his own web site. "One of the things computers were not able to do was store in formation from different sources. The dream behind the Web is of a common space in which we communicate by sharing information."
In 1991 his programmmes were placed on to the Internet.Everyone was welcome to use them.
Tim Berners-Lee could have followed the Microsoft route by forming a company to sell the programmes he invented. Or he could have joined another company. But in his view the Web is a language,not a pproduct. Charging a gee for using his programmes would have slowed the growth of the Web.And other companies would make similar products to compete. Instead of one World Wide Web there would be several smaller Webs. Each would use incompatible (不相容的) software. They Web is valuable because it uses a common computer language to reach people and share information. Competing webs would lose this value.Imagine if somebody sent you a bill every time you spoke a world of English.
In 1994 Tim Berners-Lee formed the World Wide Web Consortium,or W3C.More than 200 leading companies and laboratories are represented by W3C. Together they make sure that everyone, no matter what their equipment or solftware,can work equally on the Web.
"The Web can help people to understand the way that others live and love. It helps us understand the humanity of people," he says.

“Imagine you are walking along the road. Suddenly you fall over and all the passers-by burst into laughter. You feel very 36 and think the world is laughing at you . But in fact, five minutes later, they have 37 it ever happened.” The other day when I came across these words in an article, I didn’t agree with the 38 .
The author thinks the best thing to do in this kind of 39 is to pretend nothing has happened, and so avoid 40 trouble.
I admit that we should keep 41 because “Your tears will only remind others of what happened, while your 42 can let them forget it.” But this is far from satisfactory. We should do 43 to make things better.
I used to be a(n) 44 girl and not very good at maths. Our new maths teacher asked me a question and I still remember how I hung my head in 45 when I couldn’t answer it.
“If you don’t know the answer, just tell me.” the teacher said, “If you don’t how can I know 46 you know the answer or not?” All of my classmates burst into laughter. My face turned red but the teacher 47 me to go to the blackboard and 48 what I knew. If I had 49 the words in the article, I would have given up. But I tried my best. And to everyone’s 50 , I succeeded! The teacher smiled and said, “Well done! I 51 you could do it!”
Since then, I have become active in maths as 52 as in other subjects. I used to think doing maths exercises was a waste of time. But now, I know 53 I do can make things better. Everyone is the 54 of his own fate.
If we make mistakes, we should take on an active 55 . Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep(哭泣), and you weep alone.

Taxis
Taxis are in the streets 24 hours a day.Simply raise your hand, and a taxi will appear in no time.They are usually red, and they display the price per kilometre on the window.You should check whether the cab has a business permit, and make sure you ask for a receipt.
Buses and trolleybuses
Public transport provides a cheap way to get around in Beijing.There are 20,000 buses and trolleybuses in Beijing, but they can get very crowded.It’s a good idea to avoid public transport during the rush hour(6∶30 a.m.~8∶00 a.m.and 5∶00 p.m.~6∶30 p.m.).Fares are cheap, starting at 1 yuan.Air-conditioned buses cost more.Buses numbered 1 to 100 are limited to travel within the city centre.Higher numbers have destinations in the suburbs.Tourists shouldn’t miss the 103 bus which offers one of the most impressive routes, past the Forbidden City and the White Pagoda in Beihai Park.If you get on a double-decker bus, make sure you sit upstairs.You’ll have a good view of the rapidly changing city.
Most buses run from about 5∶00 a.m.to midnight.However, there is also a night bus service, provided by buses with a number in the 200s.
Minibuses
Minibuses with seats for 12 passengers offer an alternative to expensive taxis and crowded public transport in some areas.They run regular services and follow the same routes as large public buses.And in a minibus you always get a seat even in rush hours.
Underground
There are four underground lines in Beijing, and several lines are under construction.Trains are fast and convenient, but rush hours can be terrible.A oneway trip costs 3 yuan.Station names are marked in pinyin.The underground is open from 5∶00 a.m.to 11∶00 p.m..
Pedicabs
Tourists like these human-pedalled“tricycle taxis”, but they can be expensive.You should talk to the driver, and make sure you know the price before you begin the journey.For example, if it is per person, single or return.Tricycles are worth using if you want to explore the narrow alleys(hutong)of old Beijing.
Questions:
1.What’s the problem with buses?
2.What are the advantages of the underground?
3.What can you visit in a pedicab?
