阅读下面短文并回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。 When your toothbrush is at the end of its days, don’t just throw it away, as a survey has revealed many other uses for an old toothbrush. The survey was carried out by the Dental Health Foundation to promote National Smile Month and more than 1, 000 people participated in the survey. It found that more than four in every five people re-use their toothbrush for another purpose. Four in ten people use an old toothbrush to brush bathroom tiles (瓷砖), and almost a third use it to clean kitchen appliances. More than a quarter of those questioned use old toothbrushes to clean jewellery, and roughly one in every five use them for shining shoes. Some other uses for toothbrushes include cleaning bikes, computer keyboards, toilet seats, fish tanks and finger nails. The survey also found that the age of the owner can determine what happens to a toothbrush after it is not suitable to be used to brush teeth any more. People over 75 are three times more likely to re-use their toothbrush for a different purpose than those between the ages of 16 and 34 and twice more likely than those between 35 and 44. Additionally, to reuse their toothbrush for chores (日常琐事) and other uses than their male counterparts. Some women admitted to using their toothbrush to apply hair dye (染料)while some men said they used an old toothbrush to clean their dog’s teeth. Chief Executive of the British Dental Health Foundation, Dr Nigel Carter, said, “We all should get through around four toothbrushes every year if we are to keep our oral health in great condition. Generally people don’t change their toothbrushes often enough, but there are still plenty of toothbrushes lying around the house.

If you see someone drowning, speed is very important. Once you get him out of the water, if he isn"t breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is completely destroyed. Support his neck, move his head back and press his chin upwards. This stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometimes enough to get him breathing again. If that doesn"t work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. Press his nostrils (the two holes at the end of your nose, through which you breathe and smell things) together with your fingers. Open your mouth and take a deep breath. Blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. Repeat twelve times a minute. Keep doing until professional help arrives. To bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and gently blow into his mouth. Give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. If, in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue-grey colour, and you can feel no pulse(脉搏), then pressing is the last chance of saving his life. With arms straight, rock forwards, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. Don"t be too hard or you may break a rib. Check how effective you are by seeing if his colour improves or his pulse becomes independent to your chest pressing. If this happens, stop the pressing. Otherwise continue until rescue arrives. 小题1:If you want to save someone drowning, you __________.

“Sixteen,” I said. I have forgotten the math question my second-grade teacher, Joyce Cooper, asked that day, but I will never forget my 36 . As soon as the number left my mouth, the whole class started 37 . I felt like the 38 person in the world.. Mrs. Cooper fixed them with a firm look. Then she said: “We’re all here to 39 .” Once Mrs. Cooper asked us to write a 40 about what we hoped to do in the future. I wrote: “I want to be a 41 like Mrs. Cooper. She wrote on my report, “You would 42 an outstanding teacher 43 you are determined and you try hard.” I was to carry those 44 in my heart for the 27 years. After I graduated from high school, I got married and had children. We needed every penny just to 45 . College and teaching were out of the question. Then one day I thought of my 46 of how I wanted to help children. I talked it over with my family and 47 to attend college classes in the 48 before work. And when I got home from work, I would 49 . Finally, after seven years, my dream had been realized and I became a teacher. Not long after I started 50 , something happened that brought the 51 rushing back to me. I had written a sentence with grammatical errors on the blackboard. Then I asked students to come and 52 the mistakes. One girl got halfway through, became 53 and stopped. As the other children laughed, 54 rolled down her cheeks. I gave her a hug and told her to have a drink of water. Then, remembering Mrs. Cooper, I fixed 55 of the class with a firm look. “We are all here to learn,” I said.

阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。 [1]Everyone makes mistakes. How do you react when a family member, friend, or a classmate makes a mistake? Some of us may shout out , complain, or punish. Unfortunately, these reactions to mistakes sometimes greatly hurt both sides. In fact, there is a better way to deal with a mistake. [2]Reframe(***) "MISTAKE": Change "MISTAKE" into "MIS-TAKE." Doesn"t that have a different feeling? Therefore, a mistake is not so bad as expected. We can learn from it and it is likely to lead to success in the end. [3]Use mistakes as an opportunity for learning. Most of us want to hide our mistakes, but we may be more willing to share our "MIS-TAKES" and let others learn from them. Either an individual or a family can benefit by openly recognizing and correcting mistakes, rather than pretending that they didn"t happen. In fact, a mistake, if corrected quickly and in a creative way, can become ___________for learning. [4]Think of mistakes as opportunities to prove yourself. A mistake becomes an opportunity to create a close friend or customer. For example, in business, studies show that one of the things all customers want is recovery when the organization has made a mistake. They want us to apologize sincerely. With creative thinking, we can make them satisfied with the way we deal with a mistake. [5] We have learned to allow people around us to make mistakes. Now give them “protection” when they make a mistake. If you give people both permission and protection, you will get along well with them. Show them how they can turn a mistake into learning something about themselves so they don’t make the same mistake again. 小题1:What is the passage mainly about?

(no more than 3 words) ___________________________________________________________ _ 小题3:Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words.(no more than 4 words) __________________________________________________________ 小题4:Complete the following statement with proper words.(no more than 3 words) If we think creatively, we are able to make people feel pleased with the way in which a mistake is_________________. 小题5:Why should you show people how to turn a mistake into learning something about themselves ?

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 .

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.

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.
