It was in our school hall where our school held a variety show last week. Filling with enthusiasm, all the teachers and students were attended the show, which proved lively and fantastic. The hall was beautiful decorated. There were twenty shows at all, including singing, dancing and role play. The shows were such wonderful that we all enjoyed it very much.

Campuses should be safe places for children to learn and develop. However, the movie, Better Days, released on Oct 25 , highlights a serious issue—school bullying. Some experts say people should treat bullying seriously and not regard it as a joke. School bullying involves hurtful words, physical attacks, even sexual violence.
1.In quite a few cases, a child is bullied merely because another sees him/her as being weak in strength or character, and he or she is singled out for violence.
That the offenders are just children does not mean bullying is simply high spirits or that the children are just being naughty. 2.and it does not matter how old the perpetrator（施暴者）of the violence is or what form it takes.
It is not helpful for parents and teachers to ignore the matter by saying it is a private affair between the children and they can solve it by themselves. 3.All violence should be prevented, and the most effective way of preventing bullying on campus is to call the police and let the professionals deal with it. 4.
Bullying is a serious offense. While there may be no visible harm, it can leave invisible scars and wounds that can prove fatal over time. According to data from the United Nations Education, Science, and Culture Organization, over 32 percent of male pupils and 28 per-cent of female pupils suffer from campus violence with many suffering serious emotional and psychological problems as a result. 5.
A. Whether verbal or physical, violence is violence.
B. The bullying is only verbal insults and not threats.
C. That doesn't happen； instead the bullying becomes worse.
D. People even in their 50s or 60s may still suffer the hurt of childhood bullying.
E. Sometimes bullying can arise out of a quarrel or conflict, but often it arises out of nothing.
F. Bullying causes injury to health and makes you ill. How many of these symptoms do you have?
G. Especially, in China the role of the police is not only to enforce the law, but also to educate the public about punishments for violations.
It's natural for parents to praise their children, but offering this praise could actually backfire, according to new science.
In the study, researchers at Michigan State University looked at 123 children who were about 7. The team assessed the children to determine whether they had a “growth mindset" (believing that you can work harder to get smarter), or a “fixed mindset" (believing that your intelligence is unable to change). They then asked the children to complete a fast-paced computer accuracy task while their brain activity was recorded.
Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with a growth mindset were much more likely to have a larger brain response after making a mistake, and in turn were more likely to improve their performance by paying closer attention to the task after making an error.
While previous research has shown that people with a fixed mindset didn't want to admit they had made a mistake, this study found that children with a fixed mindset were able to — “bounce back” after making an error, but only if they gave their full attention to the mistakes. “The main implication here is that we should pay close attention to our mistakes and use them as opportunities to learn study author Hans Schroder told Science Daily.
For parents, the lessons are clear—if a child hands you an A+ test, don't say “You're so smart! ”
Instead, say “Wow, that studying really paid off!" or “You clearly mastered this material — way to go!" Note the effort, not the intelligence.
Second, focus on using errors to work together and learn. Many teachers and parents avoid addressing children's mistakes, telling them “It's OK. You'll get it next time. . . ” Without giving them the opportunity to figure out what went wrong. Dr. Schroder says, "Instead, it's better to
reassure children that mistakes happen, and to pay attention and work to figure out where and how they made the mistakes. ”
1.The underlined word “backfire" in Paragraph 1 probably means “ ” .
A.make a loud noise B.leave a good impression
C.have an opposite result D.produce an explosion
2.According to the text, which one belongs to the group who has a “growth mindset" ?
A.Tom manages to correct every mistake by heart.
B.Mary believes her mistakes are made by chance.
C.John keeps an idea that he has a good gift for studying.
D.Lily thinks she can get A+ without any effort.
3.If your child gets the best mark in the test, you should .
A.praise him with some delicious food and money
B.comment him to be cleverer than other students
C.confirm his effort that he has made for the test
D.believe that he is an honest and smart child
4.What should parents do with the child's mistakes from Dr. Schroder?
A.Parents should avoid talking with child about his mistakes.
B.Parents should compare his mistakes with others' and criticize him.
C.Parents should ignore the mistakes and believe he will do better.
D.Parents should analyse the mistakes with their child patiently.
