AOne Sunday，my family had gathered at my parents，house to feast upon Mom，s wonderful cooking. During the normal dinner chatter, I noticed that my father was slurring (说话含混）his words. No one mentioned this during dinner, but I felt compelled to discuss it with my mother afterward.We decided that there was something seriously wrong and that Dad needed to see the doctor.Mom phoned me two days later. “The doctor found a brain tumor (肿瘤）•It，s too large at this point to operate. Maybe they can do something then，but the odds are long. ”Even with the treatment, my father’s condition worsened, and the doctor finally informed us that this condition was terminal. During one of his stays in the hospital, we brought our baby daughter Chelsey with us when we visited him. By this time he had great difficulty speaking. I finally figured out that he wanted Chelsey to sit on his stomach so he could make faces at her.Watching the two of them together, I realized I was living an experience that would stay with me forever. Though grateful for the times they could share，I couldn，t shake the feeling of a clock ticking in the background.On the visit to my parents，home during what we all know was my father，s last days, my mother took Chelsey from my arms and announced, “Your father would like to see you alone for a minute. ”I entered the bedroom where my father lay on a rented hospital bed. He appeared even weaker than the day before.“How are you feeling, Dad?”I asked. “Can I do anything for you?”He tried to speak, but he couldn’t make out a word.“I，m sorry，but I can’t understand you，”I said.With great difficulty he said, “I love you. ”We don' t learn courage from heroes on the evening news.

The children observed were shown to focus on tasks up to 20% to 30% more when teachers were required to consider the number of praise statements given, compared to the number of criticisms.Dr. Paul Caldarella and his team sat in 151 classes, in 19 elementary schools across Missouri, Tennessee and Utah. In half of the classrooms, teachers followed a behavioral intervention (行为介入）program called CW-FIT, where students are told about the social skills they are expected to show in lessons and rewarded for doing so. In the other half of the classes, teachers used their typical classroom management practices.The study showed a relationship between the ratio of praise to criticism (PCR) used by the teachers and the extent students focused on class activities. In other words, the more teachers praised and the less that they scolded, the more students attended to the teacher, or worked on assigned tasks.The difference was such that children in classes where the PCR was highest, the pupils spent 20-30% longer focusing on the teacher or task compared to those in classes where the praise to reprimand ratio was lowest. This relationship was present across both CW-FIT and ordinary classes."Unfortunately, previous research has shown that teachers often tend to scold students for problem behavior as much or more than they praise pupils for appropriate behavior, which can often have a negative effect on classrooms and student behavior," says Dr Caldarella, from the School of Education at Brigham Young.The results suggest that praise is a powerful tool in a teacher's toolbox, inspiring students to work harder –particularly those difficult to reach children who may struggle academically or be troublesome in class. Previous studies have shown a clear link between the time spent by students attending to lessons and their academic achievement, suggesting that praise could boost learning and improve children's grades too.5. Which of the following is true of Dr. Paul Caldarella’s research?A. Students showed equal focus in class activities.B. Students were divided into two groups for observation.C. There were more 6th graders than kindergarten students.D. Students in the study were observed for the same behaviors.6. What is the main finding of Dr. Paul Caldarella’s study?A. 20-30% students liked their teachers.B. Students’age and their attitude were related.C. Older students pay more attention to their teachers.D. Praise from teachers increased students’attention in class.7. According to this passage, what did earlier research find about teachers’practice in class?A. Teachers used more criticism than praise.B. Teachers used as much praise as criticism.C. Teachers corrected students’mistakes in time.D. Teachers used praising and criticizing equally.CA local grocery store here is remodeling（改造）and not a single one of the changes is good for thoseof us who shop there. The grocery aisles（通道）have been rearranged with some going in one direction andothers going in another. The aisles have been pushed closer together too making it harder to get through them.All of the items have been moved from their usual spots as well. It seems like all of these changes have beenfor the purpose of slowing the shoppers down so they will make more impulse buys and give the store biggerprofits. As I walked through the store today, no one was smiling and everyone was unhappy about it.The change that bothered me the most, however, was in the checkout（付款台）aisles. Only a fewcashiers were left working with huge sections being changed into self-scanning checkouts. It saddened me tosee this. I knew that people were probably going to lose their jobs because of this change. I got in a cashieraisle and patiently waited while I saw some other people struggling to find out how the self-scan machinesworked. I vowed（发誓）at that moment never to use one myself even if I had to wait longer every time Ishopped there.When I finally arrived at the front of the aisle, I saw the cashier was someone I knew. I smiled and askedher how her family was doing. She smiled back with a warmth and kindness that touched my soul. We chattedhappily while she scanned and bagged up my groceries. I felt a friendship and a connection with her thatwarmed my heart. I wished her well before I left and said a little prayer to God for her and all the other hardworking cashiers there.Machines can do a lot for us, but there are many things they cannot do. They can’t smile. They can’tlove. They can’t touch a heart. Only we can do that. Only we can make life worth living. It is time we realizethat profits aren’t more important than people and machines aren’t more important than us. It is time we seethat we are here not to conquer the world but to be a part of it. It is time we learn that Loving God, each other,and this world are what life is all about.8．The grocery store is remodeling ______________.A．to make more money B．to compete against othersC．to force shoppers to buy more D．for the convenience of customers9．While shopping in the store, the writer felt most upset at______________.A．the checkouts aisles B．the narrow grocery aislesC．the decrease of the number of cashiers D．the longer time to wait in line for payment 10．What can serve as a suitable title for the text?A．Progress or standstill?

I devoted myself to touching their hearts softly and learned that shouting and blasting would lead to a dreadful consequence that they would get hurt more awfully and even developed a real desire to hide themselves in the darkness ing up against their behavior could only make it harder to walk into their hearts and more tough to grab their feelings.I found something literally worked.There was a very naughty boy in my working place, and a teacher who was generally very confident with the children was asked to take charge of him. One day,the boy struggled into his fight against the session in the room next to mine,running around, hitting and kicking, almost destroying property. His appearance created an atmosphere of tension.The teacher, after all, burst into sobs of frustration and deep despair.I was asked to control the circumstance.As we were talking, the boy strode in.I assured my co-worker that I'd care about him,.I closed the door with a gentle and soft sound. Noises broke harmony, the boy was full of energy, carrying on throwing things high and low and turning the room upside down.It seemed that he would never be exhausted unless his action had to be stopped.I saw him doing this to annoy me. He needed imitate connection and Only in this way could he knew how to pray for it. Accordingly I sat back down and kept quiet.My words couldn't calm him down but my sight could make it.I just stared at him,stunning stars in my eyes. He began to slow down and also gazed at me in awe. I slipped into the conversation:“So what occurred？”It was purely a simple question without any blame or anger, I assume if I had criticized him, the gate that was slowly opening would have shut firmly closed, he told me in a nearly complaining tone that the teacher didn't let him do what he knew well due to safety, but ask him to do what he hated. He admitted that he had enjoyed making the poor teacher chase after and considered it as a funny game.I explained that the teacher had not seen it as a trick, and was exceedingly upset and heartbroken.This again was stated simply as a factI suggested that if the next time he had a session,he talked about what he hoped to do at the beginning which might be easier for everyone to accept.He agreed and was quiet for a few seconds, he looked at me with grateful tears in his eyes before quietly and sincerely asking if he could go to find his teacher to apologize in an attempt to compensate for his stupid mistake.Such is the power of care.11.The boy made trouble for the teacher because he ?was blamed for creating an air of tension.was forced to lose his opportunity to do things that he desired for.wanted to a play a trick on the teacher.was accused of destroying property.12.What do you think of the boy ?naughty and desertedShabby and optimisticBad-tempered and self-centeredGrateful and honest.13.What can you learn from the whole passage?The author did nothing at first because he dared not to be hurt by the boy.The author managed to get the boy to talk to her by avoiding making critical remarks.It is no exaggeration that the author played another trick on the boyThe author didn’t mind the terrible mess at all because she couldn’t do anything to help.14.Why did the boy have tears in his eyes?He was upset for the author’s misunderstanding and discrimination.He was criticized and abused by the authorHe was sorry about his reputation.He was more than regretful for his silly and rude behavior.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
