云南师大附小一线名师提优作业系列答案During the school year many parents take on the role of driver as they drive their children from one lesson to another .Understandably so. Many of us want our children to have a little taste of everything, from organized sports to music, dance and more. But we can overdo it, leaving our children feeling a little burnt out, and according to parent educator Diane Loisie ,it’s their school work which suffers the most. “After school, if they’re busy in a number of sporting events, besides they need to do their homework, then the time they’ll feel sleepy is in the classroom. Your child needs free time. So if you’re filling up that after school time, then it’s during the day that they’re going to be taking a break.”
Professor Claire McDermott agrees that there’s a lot to be gained from sometimes putting those scheduled lessons and activities away. “Relaxing time is important for children. It’s time just to do the things they want to do. A child can go up to their room, or they can play around. It doesn’t look like productive time; parents certainly wouldn’t be saying ‘Wow, are they ever learning things now?’ But this relaxing time gives both the body and the brain just a wonderful chance to relax after a day. It helps a child prepare for sleep, but it also helps to understand the learning that’s gone on that day.”
It’s hard to prevent signing our kids up for some activities and lessons. After all, many of us want our children to have a head start in life and the chance to join in great activities in the arts or sports is a part of that. However, Loisie feels that in the long run most children feel better with just a few key activities because it gives them an opportunity to master them. “When we get our children in too many activities because we want our children to experience everything, then what we’re doing is setting them up not to be good at one thing or gaining a skill.” So choose your children’s activities wisely. It may be one of the best things you’ve ever done for your kids… and for the family drivers!

For many years, I was sure that my suffering was because of my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it.
Many obese（overweight）people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin means being loved, being special, and being cherished. We imagine what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.
But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally realize its promise of happiness, and of course, love.
It took me a long while to know that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards are different with culture. In Somoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us try hard to change our body, but with no result. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.

Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. You can get some idea of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance away from the starter, you can see smoke from his gun before the sound reaches your ears.
This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look at the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light rays left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reached you. The nearest star is so far away that the light that you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 2 million km. per minute. In some cases, the light from one of tonight’s stars had started on its journey to you before you were born.
Thus, if we want to be honest, we can’t say, “The stars are shining tonight.” We have to say instead, “The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago, but their light has only just reached the earth.”

|
A．as fast as |

|
C．the sound will reach you before the man fires |

The search for power begins when we were quite young. 36 children, we're told that the power of the good triumphs ( 战胜 ) over the power of the evil. But as we grow 37 older, we realize that 38 is that simple. The power of evil always remains.
39 , it means different things to different people. But whether to contest in a friendly way or fight to the death, the end of the result is the 40 . There will be winners and losers. Of course the key is to 41 which battles to fight. You see, no victory comes without 42 .
Trust is a fragile(脆弱的)thing. Once earned , it will 43 us with much freedom, but once trust is 44 , it can be impossible to be recovered. Of course the truth is we never know who we can 45 . Those we close to could betray( 背叛 ) us, while the total 46 could come to help us. 47 , most people decide to trust only themselves. It is 48 the simplest way to keep from 49 hurt.
Death is unavoidable. It is a promise made to each of us 50 birth. But before the promise is kept, we all hope something will happen to us. We all hope to experience something 51 makes our lives meaningful, but the sad fact is that not all lives have meaning. Some people spend their time on this 52 just sitting aside, 53 for something to happen to them 54 it is too late.
Sooner or later the time comes when we all must become responsible adults. Then we learn to 55__ what we want so that we can choose to do what is right. Of course a life time of responsibility isn't always easy. But still we try to do what is best, what is good, not only for ourselves, but for those we love.
