【题目】阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。

Mom and dad are two of the most important people in your life. You probably see at least one of them every day and, over your lifetime, they influence you more than anyone else you meet.

Moms and dads need to care for their kids from the minute they're born. It's a parent's job to love and help kids — and most parents will do this as possible as they can, even when the 'kids' grow up and have children of their own. That means you have many years ahead to share with your mom and dad.

Here are some ways you can stay close, get along, and build a strong relationship (关系):

Spend time together. Don't play a computer game or watch TV by yourself. Ask your mom and dad to play with you, go outside together, play a game, or read a book out loudly. Try to spend more time together.

Share your feelings and ask for help. Many kids say they'd like their parents to help them when they're unhappy. So if you're sad or have a problem, tell your parents and ask for help. They'll be happy to help you.

Be kind and caring. Little things might mean a lot to your mom and dad. You can brighten a parent's day with a hug, a card or a joke. It's also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. It's important to show that you care for each other. Kids and parents show their love by respecting (尊重) each other, and being caring, polite and thoughtful.

Do your best at whatever you do. You don't have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you're turning into such a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know you're doing a good job.

1Do kids' parents inuence them more than anyone else?

2What can kids do if they are sad or have a problem?

3How do kids and parents show their love?

4What do kids' parents feel when they do their best?

5What does the passage mainly talk about?

【题目】 Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失败). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame (责备) themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk (风险) taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difcult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget — if you are shy, you are not the only one.

A.Most little babies are born shy and quiet.

B.If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.

C.Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.

D.Many shy children have older brothers and sisters.

2What can cause shyness according to the passage?

A.Genetics, grow-ups and birthplace.B.Family size, grow-ups and failure.

'Sara, you can't sit there all day,' her mother said. 'We'll have your party for you next weekend.'
