Some time ago, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping (包装)paper.
Money was tight and he became more upset when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box to her father next morning and said, “This is for you daddy. "
The father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box empty. He spoke to her in a harsh manner, “Don't you know young lady, when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside
the package?”
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, “Oh Daddy, it is not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was full." The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his little girl and he begged her to forgive his unnecessary anger.
An accident took the life of the child only a short time later and it is told that the father kept the golden box by his bed for all the years of his life and whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems, he would open the box and take out a(n) imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given a golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family friends and God. There is no more precious possession anyone can hold.

Fear is an emotion like others such as happiness, anger, hurt, sadness. We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond. Being afraid of fast cars, for example, is something that might protect us from harm. Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.
Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs. Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others, and at times, the media. Many normal fears during the early years, like men with beards, or large dogs, disappear with age. Those relating to personal failure and ridicule (嘲笑) remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.
Children’s fears are often trivial, but that doesn’t mean they should be ignored. They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child. Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them.
Research shows that as a child grows up, the center of his fears changes a lot. Things like divorce, a teacher who “shouted at me”, people with guns, bullies, big boys,
or “making fun of me” top the list of childhood fears.
We cannot always prevent these experiences from happening, but it’s essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment. Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease the pain of these fears. Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears. This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to cope. With all emotions, fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is normal and can be dealt with.
27. The underlined word “trivial” in the third paragraph probably means “_______”.
A. small B. serious C. harmful D. common
28. In dealing with children’s fears, the final goal of the parents is to _______.
A. stop unpleasant experiences happening to children
B. let children know about the nature of fear
C. create an environment where there is nothing to fear
D. develop children’s ability to treat their fear on their own
29. From the passage we can learn that ________ .
A. some childhood fears may have a lasting influence
B. children should avoid the media to reduce their fear
C. fears can be judged according to the environment
D. children with similar fears can communicate easily
30. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. How to Overcome Children’s Fears B. Children’s Fears
C. The kind of Children’s Fears D. The Bad Effects of Fears

Today’s the day of a big test at school, and you feel awful.___31____. Maybe your muscles feel tense and you feel shaky or sweaty. You may have a case of the jitters, also known as test anxiety.
___32_____. Performance anxiety is when a person feels worried about how they will perform, especially when it’s really important. For instance, you might feel
performance anxiety when you’re trying out for the school band or for the basketball team.

Sound familiar?___34____. Ask other people and you’ll find that just about all people---adults and other kids---feel some anxiety before a test. In fact, a small dose of anxiety can be helpful, keeping you sharp and focused. But when your symptoms(症状) take over so that you can’t function or when you’re so anxious that you feel sick, you might not be able to do it.
Of course, if you didn’t study for the test, you might be worried---- and for good reason. That kind of anxiety isn’t as easy to tackle because even if you find a way to calm down, you still might not know what the right answers are.____35_____, you’ll be able to let your knowledge shine and score a good grade.
A You’re not alone.
B Surely you have test anxiety
C If you are not well prepared for the exam
D Your stomach hurts and you have a headache
E Test anxiety is actually a type of performance anxiety

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
There are some very good things about open education. This way of teaching allows the students to develop their own interests in many subjects.
Open education allows students to be responsible for their own education. Some students do badly in traditional classroom. The open classroom may allow them to enjoy learning. Some students will be happier in an open education school. They will not have to worry about grades or rules.
But many students will not do well in an open classroom. For some students, there are too few rules. These students will do little in school. They will not make good use of open education. Because open education is so different from traditional education, these students may have a problem of getting used to making so many choices. For many students it is important to have some rules in the classroom. They worry about the rules even when there are no rules. Even a few rules will help this kind of students. The last point about open education is that traditional teachers do not like it. Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their school.
You now know what open education is. Some of its good points and bad points have been explained. You may have your own opinion about open education. The writer thinks that open education is a good idea, but only in theory. In actual fact, it may not work very well in a real class or school. The writer believes that most students, but of course not all students, want some structure in their classes. They want and need to have some rules. In some cases, they must be made to study some subjects. Many students are pleased to find subjects they have to study interesting. They would not study those subjects if they did not have to.
