More and more often we heard of people talking about Karaoke (卡拉OK). But what on earth it is about still remains a question for many people. Karaoke is a sort of acoustic (听觉的) equipment which was invented in Japan around the middle of the 1970"s. It means "a band without people" in Japanese. In fact, it is just a music tape without words. This equipment first appeared in some public houses and snack bars, and mainly for the customers to enjoy themselves. Most of the music in Karaoke was popular music. Therefore, at times, when anyone felt like it, he might sing songs to the accompaniment (陪伴) of the music that came from the equipment. Shortly after its invention, Karaoke was spread to the whole world. It was introduced to China and was welcomed by many people. Although you are not a good singer, or even sometimes you may sing out of tune, you can always enjoy yourself by singing Karaoke.

Do you enjoy reading? Do you read newspapers or magazines? Chances are, if you do any of these activities, your pre-school child is on his way to becoming a reader.
The process of learning to read is complex, and one of the most important things to know is that parents can help their children learn to read. As children have conversations with adults, they hear both new and familiar words and their vocabulary grows.
There are many opportunities for adults and children to talk together, such as when riding in the car or in a bus, doing housework like fixing dinner, or bathing and getting ready for bed. A major part of conversation is listening. When children talk, adults listen and respond. Then children listen and respond, and so the flow of conversation happens.
Have you watched you pre-school child pretend to read to his younger sisters or brothers? Have you read his favorite story over and over? These experiences tell children that reading is fun. And when things are fun and they are repeated, your child will see letters. He begins to connect them to familiar words, especially the letters that make up his name. A natural next step for him to take is to write the letters.
When children see parents make a grocery list, they want to use a pencil and paper to make their own list. To encourage these beginning writing activities, have pencils, markers, crayons and scrap paper within your children’s reach.
The more children get connected with talking, listening, reading and writing, the easier it is for them to become active readers. While you as a parent have a big influence on these early behaviors, it is important to remember that opportunities for literacy experiences happen when you and your child share in the basic routines(日常生活)of everyday life.

A.during daily routinesB.only in quiet places
C.in their spare timeD.when they are eager to walk

A.copy the action of the adults.
B.prefer to talk with those of their own age.

小题3: When do children want to learn to write?
A.When their parents ask them to do so.
B.When they believe they can write well.
C.When they know what they want to know
D.When they can connect letters with familiar words.
小题4:The passage is written to _____________.
A.talk about parents’ influence on their children’s behavior
B.encourage parents to set a good example to their children
C.advise parents to make reading a part of their children’s daily life
D.make parents believe in the importance of early reading

Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance. Parents often give their children an amount of money that they may spend as they wish. The purpose is to let the children learn from experience at an early age when financial mistakes are not very costly.
A child may receive an allowance each week or each month. The amount is not so important.  But parents should make clear what the child is expected to pay for with the money.
At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents should not offer more money until the next allowance is to be given.
Older children may be responsible enough to budget larger costs like those for clothing. The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving.
Many people who have written on the subject say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the home, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
Allowances give children a chance to experience three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving it to organizations. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice: you have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowance can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer free savings accounts for young people with small amounts of money.
小题1:The functions of allowances given to children are the following EXCEPT ______.
A.they can save more money for their future business
B.they can give them to charities
C.they may spend them on what they like
D.they can learn to deal with money
小题2:The underlined word "sacrifice" in the last paragraph means "_____".
A.牺牲B.计划C.选择D.放弃
小题3:What"s the main idea of the passage?
A.Children should save part of their allowance.
B.Don’t pay your child for work around the home.
C.Allowance helps teach children early about money.
D. Parents should allow children to spend money as they wish.
小题4:How many advantages of saving has the passage mentioned?
A.2 B.3 C.4D.5
小题5:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? 
A.Children are advised to buy anything they wish to with the allowance.
B.Parents should offer children more money if they spend all of their allowance soon after they get it.
C.It can be useful to pay children to do extra work around the home.
D.It is unnecessary for the children to save part of the allowance.
