任务型阅读理解

Taking kids to the movies sounds fun. Now we recommend that you read about our suggestions.

Choose the right movie

(1)Be sure that you’ve chosen a suitable film for your __________ and that the running time(持续时间) isn’t too __________. Avoid (避免) opening days, especially with younger children, as too many people can mean long lines and more noise.

Pre-purchase(预购) the tickets, and bring your own snacks

Save your time at ticket counters (售票处) and snack bars, and get organized before you leave the house. (2) You can buy your tickets online, and bringing snacks from home saves money as well as time. You can bring a family-sized box of popcorn to share. Also, bringing small drinks can help to avoid toilet-trips.

Let the kids know the rules (规则)

It’s time to talk about a few rules. Make sure your children know the usual cinema rules about being quiet, staying in their seats and not disturbing other movie-goers. Ask them to remind you of the rules before you go into the cinema — that’ll make sure they remember. Make sure the kids (and you) are well-rested.

Save the attention span (注意力的持续时间) for the movie

Trying to get your children to sit still through two hours of anything can be difficult. Make it easy on them by skipping the endless previews (预告片) and advertisements at the start of a film. Ask about the exact (确切) time the main feature will start and don’t get into the theatre until then.

Luke almost always keeps his brown eyes on his owner Kathy. When she raises her right thumb (大拇指), Luke knows he’s been good. When Kathy holds her right hand in front of Luke, he sits. Kathy uses hand signals(手势) to train Luke because he cannot hear.

Training a deaf dog can take more time than teaching a hearing dog. An owner must use signs to give commands (命令). Some owners use American Sign Language, and others make up their own signs. Like hearing dogs, deaf dogs should first learn to sit, lie down, stay, come, and stop. Other commands can then be added one at a time. Luke is just one year old, and he knows 20 commands!

To get Luke’s attention in the house, Kathy stomps (跺) her foot. Outdoors, during daylight hours, Kathy waves at Luke until he notices her. If Luke is in the backyard at night, Kathy calls him by turning the porch light off and on. Luke also wears a bell so that Kathy can know where he is.

It’s also important to know how to wake up a deaf dog. To wake Luke, Kathy holds her hand in front of his nose. She lets her smell wake him up so that he won’t be frightened. If Luke is sleeping when people visit, Kathy asks them not to wake him.

Like most deaf dogs, Luke gets nervous if he doesn’t know where his owner is. He’ll walk with quiet steps from room to room, looking for Kathy. Before leaving a room, Kathy makes sure to get Luke’s attention. Sometimes Luke follows her, but other times he just sighs and goes back to sleep.

Kathy and Luke spend about 15 minutes every day working on old and new commands. With his tail wagging (摇摆) and nose wiggling, Luke looks as if he’s playing instead of working.

Dear Amy

How are you? Mum, Dad and I went to Thailand last week. We had a great time!

We arrived at the airport early on Friday morning. I chose a window seat on the plane. I could see the clouds clearly from the window. They looked soft and shiny. Four hours later, we landed in Thailand.

We stayed at a hotel in Pattaya on our first day. We went to the beach. We played different water sports there. We had so much fun! We were tired when we got back to the hotel.

On the next day, we went to Bangkok. We visited two temples there. They looked like golden bells with pointed tops. We took some photos outside the temples and had a walk in the gardens. In the evening, we had dinner at a restaurant next to a lake. The food was very spicy so I kept drinking cold water!

On the last day, we went to a shopping mall. Mum bought a beautiful tea set. Dad bought some T-shirts and I bought some dried mangoes (芒果干). We went to the airport after lunch. I was lucky because I got a window seat again. This time I could see the beautiful sunset (日落).

We enjoyed the trip very much. I hope we will go on another trip again soon.

Love

Polly
