I can still remember clearly the day after I had my first exam in Senior High. I didn’t pass them. I was so scared that I even don’t want to go to school any more. My parents looked my test paper calmly but said, “My child, we’re very glad you has finished half of it and you can do better next time. We never expect you to do the best at a very beginning. We strong believe you can make progress gradually.” What they said made me to feel I could do things well. From then on, I have concentrated much on my studies. Now I’m always filling with confidence in my studies because I know my parents are always behind me.

Young children learn by being shown actions, by watching others, and through trial and error. The job of parenting has many hard things to teach: respect, kindness, honesty and responsibility. 1. If you take the time to think about what you are doing and reflect on your action, you might succeed.
One of the ways that young children learn is by observing and imitating your behaviors and actions. They get a clear understanding of what is right and wrong at a very young age. 2. They learn honesty and kindness through your encouragement. What you do and how you encourage your child will help your child learn about what to do and what not to do.
Begin to teach your child about the feelings and ideas of others early. Find time each day to talk about this. Repeat the messages you want your child to know. Remember to recognize and praise respectful actions. Express your disappointment and your disapproval when your child shows disrespect. 3. Teach your child to show respect for differences and preferences.
4. Fairy tales, folk tales and religious stories all help children understand the lessons you might want to teach. 5.
A. If you just leave it up to chance, it might not happen.
B. Children can help balance work and family demands.
C. Another way that they learn is through your approval and disapproval.
D. Help your child learn that everyone has different likes and dislikes.
E. When you educate a child’s mind, you also educate the child’s heart.
F. Encourage your child to learn how to end a fight and remain friends with others.

You have most likely heard of renewable energy or even used it in your home, or office to do your part for the environment. Renewable energy is energy from natural resources including the wind, sunlight, and water. This form of energy is always renewed and cannot be exhausted. The most popular modern day form of this energy can be seen in solar paneling(电池板). Renewable energy can produce electricity and plays a major role in reducing greenhouse emissions(排放) and fossil fuels (化石燃料).
A study by the Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory predicts that renewable energy resources can soon provide up to 80 percent of the electricity in the United States. The study was conducted to decide how renewable energy can meet the needs of a rapidly increasing population. Using the current solar panels, wind turbines, geothermal(地热), and hydropower, this 80 percent increase is a promising possibility for our future.
Increasing this renewable energy will provide practical benefits for our economy, climate, and health. Not only will it greatly reduce global warming, but it will improve public health, and provide many economic benefits. In a future with 80 percent fewer renewables, our carbon emissions will also be reduced by 80 percent, and water use will be cut in half.
This future is both possible and affordable, and we already have the tools in place to begin. However, we need to make improvements to our current electricity grid(电网) first. Additionally, the United States needs to carry out a clean energy policy for renewables.
1.The passage is mainly about _______.
A. protecting the environment
B. the use of renewable energy
C. reducing global warming
D. the form of renewable energy
2.What is the closest meaning to the underlined word “exhausted” in the first paragraph?
A. Tired. B. Removed.
C. Created. D. Used up.
3.Which of the following is not renewable energy?
A. Solar. B. Geothermal.
C. Hydropower. D. Fossil fuels.
4.What will the renewables bring us?
A. Doing good to our economy, climate, and health.
B. Partly increasing global warming.
C. Increasing our cost.
D. Improving current electricity grid.
Dreams are expressions of thoughts, feelings and events that pass through our minds while we are sleeping. People dream about one to two hours each night. We may have four to seven dreams in one night. Everybody dreams. But only some people can remember their dreams.
The word “dream” comes from an old word in English that means “joy” and “music”. We dream in color. Our dreams often include all the senses—smells, sounds, sights, tastes and things we touch. Sometimes we dream the same dream over and over again. These repeated dreams are often unpleasant. They are bad dreams that sometimes frighten us.
Artists, writers and scientists sometimes say they get ideas from dreams. For example, the singer Paul McCartney of the Beatles said he awakened one day with the music for the song Yesterday in his head. The writer Mary Shelley said she had a very strong dream about a scientist using a machine to make an animal come alive. When she woke up, she began to write her book about a scientist named Frankenstein who made a frightening monster(妖怪).
In China, people believed that dreams were a way to visit with family members who had died. Some native American tribes(部落) and Mexican civilizations believe dreams are a different world we visit when we sleep.
