Making mistakes
It’s good to make mistakes．And here’s why．
First of a11．mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things．It’s always good to try new things because when you’re trying new things you are growing．If you never try anything new,how can you improve and develop?The simple answer is,“You can’t.”
Another good thing about mistakes is this：When you are making mistakes，you are learning．Consider this：Edison failed 1 0,000 times— before he perfected the light bulb．When he was asked how it felt to fail that many times，he replied that he hadn’t failed 1 0,000 times，but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work．
Finally,when you make a mistake，you are much closer to success．Why?Because every time you make a mistake，you are one step closer to success．But it doesn’t mean that you can make mistakes without thinking．Instead，when you try something new,you have to think it over，so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes．
There is an old saying that goes．“If you are not making mistakes．you are not trying hard enough.’’ So go forward and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．
【小题1】According to the passage，when you are making a mistake，that means ．
| A．you’re thinking | B．you’re growing |

Hi, Louis!
I’m writing to tell you something about the customs(风俗) and festivals.
Everyone loves holidays since one doesn’t need to go to school or work. Although all holidays mean no school and work, but not all of them are the same. On some of them you go out with friends; on others you stay home to eat, talk, and have fun with your family. For example in the USA, everyone thinks New Year’s Eve and New Year are both for playing with friends. Christmas is the time to stay home and exchange gifts with family members. The opposite (相反) is true in Japan though. For example, in Japan, New Year is for spending time with the family to eat, talk, have fun, and go to the temples. But Christmas is for boy and girl friends to go out and exchange gifts. Originally Christmas should be to celebrate(庆祝) the birth of Christ.
I have been interested in foreign customs since I was little. If you learn these different holiday customs, you will learn about different histories and cultures. This is much more interesting than learning them at the library from morning to evening.
Loves,
Judge the following sentence true(T) or (F)
【小题1】Usually, nobody goes to school or works during holidays.
【小题2】Christmas is the time to stay home to eat, talk and have fun with the family.
【小题3】All the countries have the same way to celebrate the holidays.
【小题4】Being interested in foreign customs means being interested in different histories and cultures.
【小题5】This passage is about the customs and holidays in Japan.

Two students started quarreling at school. One student shouted dirty words at the other, and a fight began.
What can be done to stop fights like this at school? In some schools, disputants ( 争执者 ) sit down with peer mediators (同龄调解员). Peer mediators are usually students with special training in this kind of problem.
Peer mediators help disputants to talk in a friendly way. Here are some of the ways they use.
Express what you think clearly but don’t say anything to hurt the other. Begin with “I feel” instead of “You always”.
Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. Don’t stop the other person’s words.
Keep looking at the other person’s eyes when he or she is speaking.
Try to see the problems on the other person’s side.
Never put anyone down . Saying things like “You are foolish” makes the talk difficult.
Try to find a result that makes both people happy.
Peer mediators never decide on the winner. They don’t decide who is right or who is wrong. Instead they help disputants find their own“win-win” result. A “win –win” result can make everyone feel good.
Peer mediators’ work is often successful just because it gets disputants to talk to each other. And getting disputants to talk to each other is the first step in finding a “win-win” result.

Going to a friend’s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. So remember to be polite.
When to arrive: The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come “around 3:00”, that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.
What to bring: Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little present is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.
How to greet: When you visit your friend’s house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. or Mrs. Smith. This will show them more respect(尊重) and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to show respect is to call them Madam or Sir.
It is a cool thing to visit a friend’s house. Be polite to your friend and your friend’s parents, and you will be invited again!

Recently a specialist(专家) in teenager studies does some research on teenage problems. He thinks parents shouldn’t be blamed of themselves because there is nothing they can do to deal with the teenage problem. Whatever they do, sometimes a wonderful, kind and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, should stand up, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman whenever anyone entered the room. I saw him last week when I visited them. Lying on the sofa, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in. His mother was angry. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”
He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She said that she would like to throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress, it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
“Where did we go wrong?” Her parents are now very sad. Probably nothing is wrong with the parents.
【小题1】This text is most probably written by________.
| A．A specialist in teenager studies |
| B．a headmaster of a middle school |
| C．a parent with teenage children |
| D．a doctor for mental health problems |
| A．the change of the children from good to bad |
| B．the way that parents often blame themselves |
| C．the opinion that a child has of his parents |
| D．the advice that parents want their children to follow |
| A．lazy | B．quiet |
| C．unusual | D．rude |
| A．Parents have no choice but to try to accept it. |
| B．Parents should pay more attention to the change. |
| C．Parents should work more closely with school teachers. |

Most kids hate doing housework. However, not all hope is lost. There are some things that you can do to get your kids to help you clean your house. If you are struggling with the chores (家务)and need your kids to help you, take a look at some of the creative ways in this article.
If you are dealing with older kids, you may want to try the allowance deal. You can give your kids a list of chores that need to be done each week. If they complete these chores, you can give them some money. You can also break the list down and tell them they will get so much for each chore that is finished. Older kids , who like to do things on weekends or buy things like video games, will work hard to complete their chores and earn their money. This is also teaching them responsibility. This is teaching them that they must work for what they want.
If you are dealing with younger kids, you may want to go with the rewards chart(奖励图表）. This is where you design a chart and list their chores on the chart. For each chore they complete, you can put a red flower beside it. For the rewards, you canalso do a number of things ,such as going to the park, going out to eat, buying a DVD or something similar. The rewards would be up to you because you know what your kids like.
For real small kids, you can turn it into a game. When kids were much younger, you can teach them to dance around and sing as you cleaned. The kids loved it and would do a wonderful job at picking up their toys. So, consider turning cleaning into a game for the real small kids.
【小题1】What does the underlined word “allowance” in Paraph 2 mean ?
| A．Good words given by parents | B．Business that needs studying |
| C．Explanation of responsibility | D．Small change given by parents |
| A．To know what your kids like. |
| B．To know how many chores the kids have done. |
| C．To encourage younger kids to do more chores. |
| D．To go out to eat or do something similar they like. |
| A．Kids should help parents do more chores. |

To write a great news story, you have to make sure it is correct, relevant (相关的) and fresh.
For a start, all the information in a story must be correct. Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts.
Any mistakes that appear in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.
For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasn't the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake
A news story is not only correct , but also relevant to its readers. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them. That is why you care more about what happens at your school than at American schools. It is also why newspapers in Beijing don't talk about much news in Shanghai or Hong Kong .
Finally, news must always be fresh. When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happens that day. You don't want to read about news from last week!
So, now you know what makes a good news story. Have a good look at our newspaper and see if it is full of good news .You can try writing a news story for our newspaper like a real reporter.
【小题1】The writer mentions main factors (因素) to make a news story really great.
| A．two | B．three | C．four | D．five. |
| A．Nanchang | B．Hong Kong. |
| C．Shanghai. | D．Beijing. |
| A．A small mistake can't get a newspaper into trouble. |
| B．A lot of people like reading about news from last week. |
| C．The passage doesn't tell us who was the first man to go into space. |
| D．People are mostly interested in news that happens far away from them. |
| A．why to be a good reporter. |
| B．where to find interesting news. |
| C．when to choose a good newspaper. |
| D．how to write a great news story |
