Suppose you want to bring home a new cat and are looking for a way to really make it feel at home. Actually, all you need to do is buy some nice cat furniture and have it in place by the time you bring it into your home.

The first thing that you should prepare is a cat house. Two to three feet off the ground is the best height. If you don’t have enough room for a cat house, a cat bed is also a nice choice.

Once you have a nice spot where your cat can go to feel safe, then it’s time to get cat furniture that offers your pet a nice place to play. One nice choice is cat trees. Scratching posts (猫抓板) are another great idea if you are short on space, but still want to give your cat a nice place where it can claw (抓) at instead of your own furniture.

If you’re looking for a great way to shop for cat furniture, simply turn on your computer and do some online shopping. In no time will you be able to browse (浏览) all the offerings from many online stores. What’s great is that you can easily compare products and their prices, so you can get what you want at the best possible price. And, probably the nicest thing about online shopping is that your purchases may be shipped right to you, so you don’t have to waste time making a trip to the store.

So, if you have brought a new cat into your home, make sure that home is an inviting one by buying some new cat furniture. Without it, your cat might feel lost and unsafe, which you definitely do not want to happen.

63. What should you do first before you bring a cat home?

A. Buy a cat house and some cat furniture.

Pushing children too hard is a really big social problem that seems to be getting worse．Now we have 6-month-olds in music classes and swimming classes．Parents fear that if other children are attending these classes，they will be holding their own children back if they do not enroll，too．

    The other extreme，simply taking a laissez-faire approach and letting children do—or refuse to do—whatever they want，is not the answer either，of course．

    Dr Taylor emphasizes that parents need to push their children based on what is best for the children，not what is best for themselves．If children understand that an activity is in their best interests，then they will accept it, he finds．

    Dr Taylor and other family experts remain pessimistic about the possibilities for widespread social change．“The force of our popular culture，driven by money and superficial（表面上的） values，cannot be resisted，” he says．But change can take place at a“micro-level,” in families and schools．

    When changes do occur，the rewards can benefit everyone in the family．One mother supporting this new approach toward parenting mentions the advantages her family experienced after her children cut back on activities．“The biggest thing is that since we have done this，we are rested,” she says．“Not only are our kids rested，because they're not in a ton of stuff, but my husband and I are rested，because we're not driving them everywhere．We weren’t living in the moment when we were always busy．We were living by the schedule．The return on our investment of spending time together has been enormous．”

49．One of the reasons why parents push children so hard is that they________．

A．believe in early development in children  

B．are too busy to take care of their children  

C．don't want their children to lag behind    

D．want to repeat what their parents did to them

50．The phrase“a laissez-faire approach”（in Line 1，Paragraph 2）most probably refers to______．

A．denying them what they need         

B．controlling children in a flexible way  

C．developing a keen interest in children    

D．letting children do whatever they want

51．The best way to encourage children to work hard is___________．

A．to make them believe it’s in their best interests

B．to consider the matter from parents' standpoint  

C．to emphasize the importance of hard work from time to time  

D．to make it interesting and enjoyable to them

52．The new approach toward parenting mentioned in the passage most likely refers to _______．

A．relieving children’s hard work and unnecessary activity  

B．resisting the superficial values of pop culture  

C．reducing more activity off their school schedule  

D．spending more time with their children
