Shaping a child is like shaping clay（粘土）— you have to start from the beginning and work your way to the end with extreme caution but with gentle and loving 16 . However, unlike clay, you don’t get a second 17 with a child. You can put all the clay back together and start again but with a child, what is done is done. 18 it’s even more caution with care.
Building a child’s esteem is no small play; it makes your black hair 19 , steals away years of your life and still will not look done. Therefore you have to learn how to build self-esteem and 20 your child from the beginning. After all, parenting begins from babyhood.
Small case could leave large 21 on your child’s mind. Reason why you should not overlook something that went wrong. If another child 22 your kid, everyone laughed and you told your son to 23 it, that’s the first wrong step. You have to teach your child to 24 up for himself. Don’t let your child fall down inside. Tell him to ask the child why he is hitting him or 25 to the nearest adult he can reach.
Most of all before you speak to a child you have to be a 26 example. If you go around laughing at people, your kids will do the 27 . If you are a coward（懦夫）yourself and do not stand up to situations, do not 28 your child not to follow you. Children are like monkeys—they copy every 29 , from how you eat to how you handle situations.
Building self-esteem begins at home. Small self-confident acts make a(n) 30 impact on your child.

举一反三
The US government has started a website, Admongo, to help children think critically about the advertising aimed at them. It claims to provide visitors with an “education” through games and other amusement.
A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo. “Call me Haiz”, he says upon arrival in a rocket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it. Spacey dance music plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising.
Its inventors say eight to twelve years old is the age kids develop their critical thinking abilities. Kids that age are also a big market for advertisers.
The idea behind Admongo is to teach children three things: To identify the advertiser. To know what the advertiser is really saying. And to know what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do.
Children learn these things through a video game. They create their own game character. They can choose different skin colors, hair styles, eye and mouth shapes. Then they begin a trip through ad-land, where there are ads on buses and billboards. The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level.
The Admongo game takes players inside a home, to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found. It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing.
One such area is food marketing. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) says it is a big business. The FTC estimates that food, drink and fast-food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2010.
The FTC says children are important for three reasons. They buy products. They influence parents and caregivers to buy. And they are the future adult buyers of the products.
A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value. First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children.
小题1:What is the best title of the text?| A．The guide of Admongo | | B．An education website for children | | C．A popular online video game | | D．A website aimed at children |
小题2:Why did the government start the website?| A．To attract the biggest market of buyers. | | B．To sell the products of its company. | | C．To help children know about advertising. | | D．To advertise the video game for children. |
小题3:The underlined word “identify” can be replaced by _________.| A．recognize | B．inform | C．persuade | D．forbid |
小题4:What can players do in the website game?| A．Choose hair styles for their character. | | B．Travel to a supermarket. | | C．Eat in a fast-food restaurant. | | D．Play video games during the trip. |
小题5:Children are important for advertising because they are _________.| A．important for the society | B．the most potential buyers | | C．easily influenced by ads | D．easily affected by poor products |

Every year, British newspapers report on the stranger questions asked in Oxbridge (Oxford & Cambridge) interviews. Often, though, these questions are not as strange as they first seem. And they are all designed to give applicants (申请者) a chance to think.
Arriving for her first Oxford interview, my sister Jen saw that there was only one chair in the waiting room. On the chair was a large fork. Jen had heard about the strange things in Oxbridge interviews, and believed that this was a test. “What if they’re watching me?” she thought. “If I move the fork, it will show initiative (主动性); if I don’t move it, it will show that I can easily fit into new situations.” In the end, she sat uncomfortably on the edge of the chair!
Applicants must be prepared for the unexpected. Now it was Jen’s turn. She was handed a monkey skull (颅骨) and asked to talk about it. At first, this seemed unfair --- what could she say? But she soon calmed down, started thinking, and found that there was plenty to talk about.
Oxbridge interviews are designed to find out how you think, not just what you think. And there are no wrong answers. Jen learnt that, and she passed the interview. What advice does she give? “ Don’t be nervous, and be prepared for the unexpected!”

The southwest of Australia has been named as one of 25”hot spots” for future species extinction(灭绝)because of global warming.A new study says global warming will become a top cause of extinction across the world,with thousands of species of plantsand animals likely to be wiped out in the coming decades.
According to the study,global warming ranks among the most serious threats to the planet’s biodiversity and,under some conditions,may be more than that due to deforestation.This study provides even stronger scientific evidence that global warming will result in catastrophic(灾难性的)species losses across the planet.Last month,a UN study said humans were responsible for the worst extinction and urged extra efforts to reach a UN target of slowing the rate of losses by 2010.
Scientists disagree about how far global warming is to blame compared with other human threats such as deforestation,pollution and the introduction of some species to new habitats.But the new study looks at the 25 “hot spots”—areas that contain a big concentration of plants and animals—and predicts that 11.6 percent of all species,with a range from 1 to 43 percent,could be driven to extinction if levels of heat trapping gases in the atmosphere were to keep rising in the next 100 years.
The range would mean the loss of thousands of species.The study gave a wide range because of uncertainties, for instance, about the ability of animals or plants to move towards the poles if the climate warmed. Rare plants,tortoises or birds found only on the southern tip of Africa cannot move south because the nearest land is thousands of miles away in Antarctica.
小题1:According to the passage,which of the following about Australia is TRUE? | A．Australia possesses the richest species in the world. | | B．Australia is the country with the highest rate of extinction. | | C．The species in the southwest of Australia will be easily affected by global warming. | | D．Australia will have the highest temperature in the world. |
小题2:According to the passage,all the 25”hot spots”-------- . | A．are rich in plants and animals | | B．are lacking in natural resources | | C．lost most of their plants in 2010 | | D．will be much hotter than the rest of the world |
小题3:We can infer if the climate warms,the animals in Australia will most probably move to the ______ . | A．north | B．east | C．west | D．south |
小题4:What would be the best title for the passage? | A．Australia Named as Extinction”Hot Spot” | | B．Global Warming and Species Extinction | | C．Global Warming is Number One Killer | | D．Australia on the Edge of Extinction |
