     It may happen sooner or later:when books, toys, songs, snacks, video games, and DVDs have lost
their charm, your child begins to say, "I"m bored!Tell me a story, please."Your mind goes blank and your
child looks at you with great expectation.What should you do?

the setting, characters, or plot.Make your child the main character in a funny adventure that fits his
interests.
     When did you lose your first tooth? Who was a favorite teacher of yours? Thinking about Mommy or Daddy as a little kid may excite the imagination.And there"s nothing more delightful than a story about the
time a parent did some tricks and their results.Kids delight in these short experiences of a past that are
connected to them.
     When you tell stories, you show how to put words together to make meaning.You share something
new about yourself that your kids may find interesting or exciting and that might be a starting point for
questions and discussions.Above all, you develop a love of words that kids will have for life.

READING COMPREHENSION
     Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.     Everyone has got two personalities — the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret
and real. You don"t show your secret personality when you"re awake because you can control your
behaviour, but when you"re asleep,  your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of
course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.

you"re always easily upset. You"re very stubborn(顽固的), but you aren"t very ambitious. You usually
live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.

yourself and so you"re often defensive. You"re shy and you don"t normally like meeting people. You
prefer to be on your own. You"re easily hurt.

and weaknesses. You"re usually careful.  You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious,

阅读理解     Betty and Harold have been married for years.But one thing still puzzles old Harold.How is it that he
can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa,talking,go out to a ballgame,come back three and a
half hours later,and they’re still sitting on the sofa?Talking?
     What in the world,Harold wonders,do they have to talk about?
     Betty shrugs.Talk?We’re friends.
     Researching this matter called friendship,psychologist Lilian Rubin spent two years interviewing more
than two hundred women and men.No matter what their age,their job,their sex,the results were completely clear:women have more friendships than men,and the difference in the content and the quality of those
friendships is “marked and unmistakable.”
      More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend.Those who
could were likely to name a woman.Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend,and almost always it was a woman.More married men than women named their wife/husband as a
best friend,most trusted person,or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress(感情危机).“Most women,”says Rubin,“identified at least one,usually more,trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment,and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives.”
    “In general,”writes Rubin in her new book,“women’s friendships with each other rest on shared
emotions and support,but men’s relationships are marked by shared activities.”For the most part,Rubin says,interactions(交往)between men are emotionally controlled-a good fit with  the social requirements of
“manly behavior.”
    “Even when a man is said to be a best friend,”Robin writes,“the two share little about their innermost
feelings.Whereas a woman’s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn’t unusual to hear a man say he didn’t know his friend’s marriage was in serious trouble until he
appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa.”

1.What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that_____.

A.he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband

A.a male friend   
B.her parents   
C.a female friend
D.her husband

3.According to the text,which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?

A.Ending his marriage without good reason.
B.Complaining about his marriage trouble.
C.Spending too much time with his friends.
D.Going out to ballgames too often.

4.Which of the following statements is best supported by the last paragraph?

A.Women are more serious than men about marriage.
B.Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves.
C.Men often take sudden action to end their marriage.
D.Women depend on others in making decisions.

5.The research done by psychologist Rubin centers around_____.

A.friendships of men and women
B.happy and successful marriages

阅读理解     An idea that started in Seattle’s public library has spread throughout America and beyond.The concept is simple:help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the
same time.
     In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit(追求) to be enjoyed by all,the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus,as well as promoting reading as an experience to be
shared in families and schools.The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched the “If All
of Seattle Read the Same Book” project in 1998.Her original program used author visits,study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book,but the idea has since expanded to many
other American cities,and even to Hong Kong.
     In Chicago,the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the
first book in the “One Book,One Chicago”program.As a result,reading clubs and neighborhood groups
sprang up around the city.Across the US,stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.
     The only problem came up in New York,where local readers could not decide on one book to
represent the huge and diverse population.This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities
or large towns,where a greater sense of unity can be achieved.Or it may show that New Yorkers missed
the point,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a
book itself.
     Ultimately,as Nancy points out,the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book ,but by how many people are enriched by the process,or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom
they would not otherwise have shared a word.

1.What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?

A.To invite authors to guide readers.
B.To encourage people to read and share.
C.To involve people in community service.
D.To promote the friendship between cities.

2.Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?

A.They were too busy to read a book.
B.They came from many different backgrounds.
C.They had little interest in reading.
D.They lacked support from the local government.

3.According to the passage,where would the project be more easily carried out?

A.In large communities with little sense of unity.
B.In large cities where libraries are far from home.
C.In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.
D.In medium-sized cities with a diverse population.

4.The underlined words “shared a word”in Paragraph 5 probably mean______.

A.discussed the meaning of a word
B.A.exchanged ideas with each other
C.gained life experience
D.used the same language

5.According to Nancy,the degree of success of the project is judged by____.

A.the number of people who benefit from reading
B.the careful selection of a proper book
C.the growing popularity of the writers
D.the number of books that each person reads
