School of Witchcraft and Wizardry have aroused passion, creativity, and interest in reading throughout the world.
But have you ever considered why you are a fan of the Harry Potter series?
JK Rowling has created a list of characters and an environment for them to inhabit that appeals to both
adults and children.
The fantasy aspect of the wizarding world expands the imagination, and takes the mind to new and exciting places. Anything could happen there. Her stories contain parts of the believable and unbelievable, changing the predictability that readers commonly come across and bear in fiction.
The main theme of the series, including good versus evil, prejudice, love, death, sacrifice, friendship and
loyalty, in actuality contributes to the ever-lasting nature of the stories. At the same time, these themes
remind us of classic literature, offering mature readers tales that wear like a comfortable pair of shoes,
while introducing younger readers to concepts they will meet throughout their lives.
Much of the appeal also comes from the characters. In each book, JK Rowling introduces and
describes the characters in such a way that we wonder not only about their futures, but also about their
pasts. Even supporting characters are suddenly more than just extras in the background. And what of
Harry Potter himself? We care about Harry, because we watch him grow from an innocent boy to a
powerful wizard. We see him as both Hero and Victim. He experiences endless love and extreme pain,
and as readers, we experience them with him.
This perfect combination of emotion, suspense and fantasy, together with the fact that JK Rowling is a
superb storyteller is the reason why we are Harry potter fans. People are fond of Harry Potter series.
With books like these, it"s hard not to be.
B. they take us to a world beyond our imagination and expectation
C. they offer us ever-lasting nature of the stories
D. they set an example of hero for us to follow
B. Readers care only about Harry but not those supporting characters.
C. Even the supporting characters are attractive in the story.
D. Those supporting characters only appear all of a sudden.
B. good and evil
C. death and sacrifice
D. safety and peace
B. they find different experiences from theirs on Harry
C. they share the experiences with Harry
D. they like JK Rowling"s description very much

Parents should help their children understand money. 1 So you may start talking about money when
your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.
1.The basic function of money
Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or
services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he
wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员). 2 When
your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more
complex ways of using money.
2. Money lessons
Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. 3 If you must say no to a child"s request to
spend money, explain, "You have enough toy trucks for now." Or, if the request is for many different
things, say, "You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy."
3. 4
Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product-a name-brand butter and a
generic(无商标产品),for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different
brands of a product so that you can save money. 5 If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make
another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves
less money for other purchases.
A. Wise decisions.
B. The value of money.
C. Permit the child to choose between them.
D. Tell your child why he can-or cannot-have certain things.
E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you.
F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.
G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.
World, a free application for the iPad that helps people learn a new language by connecting them with
native speakers through social networking.
The application lets users complete language lessons and connect with Hello-Hello"s global community of language learners with members in almost 100 countries to help each other in the learning process.
Hello-Hello World is available in 11 different languages and allows users to submit both oral and writing
exercises for their friends and Hello-Hello"s language experts to review. Users are also able to provide
written feedback on their friend"s exercises directly from their mobile devices.
"The most effective way to learn a new language is through total immersion (沉浸),"said Sarah Gontijo, founder and CEO of Hello-Hello. "However, not everyone has the opportunity to live in another country. Hello-Hello World brings the convenience of connecting with native speakers anytime, from anywhere.
This can help users not only learn the language but also understand the culture."
Hello-Hello World lets users synchronize (使同步) their information with the Hello-Hello Cloud and
then access the content from any mobile device or computer. The application is first being released for the
ipad and will become available on a variety of platforms, including the iPhone, Android and Blackberry.
The application arrives at a time when tablet (平板电脑) computing is driving the creation of new
educational tools, such as Hell-Hello World. Many schools and colleges are finding ways to adapt mobile
technology for classroom learning. "The market is hot for such pioneering in education and social
networking," said Gontijo. "Hell-Hello promises to be the invention that will set the ball rolling and bring
innovation to an industry that has seen little change over the years."
Technology research firm Gartner predicts that app-store downloads worldwide will double to $17.7
billion as the year closes, and that app-income will hit $15.1 billion, tripling the impact of last year"s sales. App-downloads are expected to continue to jump to 185 billion by 2014, at which point worldwide
tablet sales are projected to surpass (超过) 208 million units.

according to a study published last week in the US.
For Years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2011 holiday season 58 percent of those making online purchases (购买) were women.
"It shows how mainstream the Internet is becoming", said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study.
Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because
women traditionally make decisions about spending.
Users were more likely to shop online to save time. Internet users between the ages of 18 and 29 were responsible for some of the most dramatic increases in the online gift-buying population this time around.
However, three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2011. They worried about credit card security(安全), or just compared online prices with off-line prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.
"But even if shoppers don"t buy online, websites are becoming promotion tools for stores," said Dan Hess, vice president of Comscore Networks Inc. Hess said that actually most stores" websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers. And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive
on time. "It"s all about making the shopping experience more efficient, more reliable and more
comfortable." Hess said.
B. There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2011.
C. Most of the Internet users between the ages of 18 and 29 are women.
D. People in the US were more likely to buy gifts online.
B. women usually decide what to buy in the family
C. the Internet is used in all the shops.
D. more and more shops will sell their goods online.
B. convenient
C. a waste of time
D. cheaper
B. Shopping online is fun for women.
C. Shopping off-line provides better service.
D. Young people like to do gift-shopping online.
with or does your attention keep jumping around the room to all the other people there? General1y, if the
person is someone you really want to talk to, you will focus on him. Most other people will only get about half of your attention.
You may think that this is OK, because if you don"t really want to talk to him, then what does it matter
if you don"t give him your full attention? Consider two things. First, you may just not realize the importance of that conversation. If you are at a networking meeting and you hope to meet the CEO of Company X,
but you end up talking to someone who has a low-level job at a different company, then you may let your
attention wander (走神) as you speak to him. But maybe you don"t realize that this person has already
met the CEO and could introduce you. Do you think he will do that if he feels you don"t really care about
speaking to him? This doesn"t mean you need to spend the whole time talking to him. Five or ten minutes
of real attentive (专心的)conversation can be worth 30 minutes to an hour of partial attention.
Second, whether you want to speak to someone is based on the situation. You can love your wife, but
if she tries to talk to you while you are watching something you like on TV, where is your attention going? Make your own decision, but if you want her to feel valued, give her your 100% attention. The nice thing
is that in many cases you can give her your attention for a few minutes and then return to what you were
doing. You miss very little, she feels valued, and all is good.
B. giving examples
C. asking questions
D. description
B. you can refuse to talk to someone you don"t like at a party
C. you should focus on whoever you are talking to
D. you should be patient with everyone at a party
B. is well worth focusing on
C. wants to make friends with you
D. is the one you"re looking for
B. go on with what you are doing
C. stop doing anything immediately
D. finish what you are doing with her
B It is important for you to be active at a party.
C You should respect your wife at any time.
D Improve your communication skills by focusing on others
