Homework is a great way for kids to develop independent, lifelong learning skills, so here are some general homework tips for parents: ● Make sure your child has a quiet, well-lit place to do homework. Avoid having your child do homework with the television on or in places with other distractions, such as people coming and going. ● Make sure the materials your child needs, such as some paper, pencils and a dictionary, are available. Ask your child if special materials will be needed for some projects and get them in advance. ● Help your child with time management. Establish a set time each day for doing homework. Don"t let your child leave homework until just before bedtime. Think about using a weekend morning or afternoon for working on big projects, especially if the project involves getting together with classmates. ● Be positive about homework. Tell your child how important school is. The attitude you express about homework will be the attitude your child acquires. ● When your child asks for help, provide guidance, not answers. Giving answers means your child will not learn the material. Too much help teaches your child that when the going gets rough, someone will do the work for him or her. Cooperation with the teacher. It shows your child that the school and home are a team. Follow the directions given by the teacher. ● Reward progress in homework. If your child has been successful in homework completion and is working hard, celebrate that success with a special even (e.g. pizza, a walk, a trip to the park) to reinforce the positive effort |

You exercise your body to stay strong, and you should exercise your mind to stay sharp. An English idiom says, "You can"t teach an old dog new tricks." But scientists have discovered that isn"t true. Older people can learn, and they should, in order to keep their brain active. Now a new trend has begun in several states in the US that encourages learning. Adults can attend One Day University. They can spend a Saturday or Sunday hearing four 70-minute lectures. Each one is given by a top university professor. One of the original participants said, "It"s like a health club for the brain." Also, universities like MIT have made all of their courses and lectures available online for free! Libraries offer learning programs too. With so much available, there is no excuse not to learn! Learning is a habit.Don"t leave it behind after you leave school. On the website lifehack.org, author Scott Young mentions several things to help you. Always have a book. It doesn"t matter if you read fast or slow. Just read.If you read just one book a week, you"ll read 52 over the course of a year. Think of the knowledge you"ll gain! Practice it. As you read, do something with what you"ve learned. Don"t just enjoy the mental exercise. Use the knowledge. If you read about painting, try it! Make a "to learn" list. Compose a "to learn" list for yourself. Maybe you want to speak better English, play the piano, or cook French food. Whatever interests you, put it on your list and then make the time to do it. Teach others. Whatever you learn, teach someone else. You"ll not only help others but also understand what you"ve learned. | 1. What"s the best title for this passage? | A.

When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child. There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong. One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his child"s leg. He never did that again. One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing. Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion(宗教)tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts (法院) say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave. Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the child"s level and taking a more child-friendly approach (方法) can help as well. | 1. According to the passage, when children do something wrong, one thing that parents usually do to punish them is to ________. | A. strike them on the bottom B. try to help them do the right thing C. teach them what to do D. take them to court | 2.

Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything. D. It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right. | 3. Which of the following can best describe the writer"s attitude towards spanking? | A. favorable (赞同的) B. indifferent (不关心) C. interested D. unfavorable | 4. From this passage, we can conclude that ________. | A. Good children always do the right thing. B. Parents should try their best to avoid spanking their children. C. Parents have no choice but to spank their children when they do something wrong. D. Children can have more than one choice to avoid being spanked. |
