     According to some researchers, you should not praise children for everything that they do. It does not
help them build self-confidence.
     Most parents and teachers agree that praise can help increase children's self-confidence -the more, the better. However, according to some researchers, only proper praise is good for children. If adults praise
everything children do, it makes children look for praise all the time, not trying to do their best. "Teachers
should not say things like 'good job' or 'nice work' whenever a child does anything. They should encourage them to continue to improve," some researchers advise.
     Another idea is that children with high self-confidence are happier, and do better at school. About this, Marshall Duke, a researcher in children, says, "High self-confidence brought in by too much praise does
not make children happier, get more, or become able to do more. Finding a child's advantages (强项) and developing them can help build confidence more than too much praise can." Praise also loses its effect
(影响) if it is given equally to all students.
     "It's important to tell children the truth about what they've done. Honest feedback (反馈) is far better
than empty praise," Duke adds. "People have got into the habit of not telling children when they're wrong. That makes it hard for them to deal with difficulties when they grow up. That's just how the world is."
1. According to some researchers, if parents praise their children too much, their children will ______.
A. always look for praise
B. increase self-confidence
C. become strong
D. do better in their studies
2. In order to help children build self-confidence, some researchers advise parents to ______.
A. make them live more happily
B. let them do more difficult work
C. help them do better in school
D. encourage them to improve
3. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?
A. Praise makes children become successful.
B. Children don't know what they're really good at.
C. The same praise for all children has no meaning.
D. Duke thinks praise is more important than finding children's strengths.
4. What is the last paragraph about?
A. It's important to have the habit of praising children.
B. Children should know their mistakes as soon as possible.
C. We should praise children honestly and tell them their mistakes.
D. What children with high self-confidence are like.

     A disheveled (头发凌乱的) man appeared in court Thursday on charges of murdering a Chinese
woman whose fight with her attacker was seen on webcam (摄像头) by her boyfriend in China. Police
refused to release any details about the crime or its possible motive.
     The body of York University student Liu Qian, 23, of Beijing, was found Friday in her apartment in
Toronto a few hours after her boyfriend witnessed the attack, police said.
     She was found undressed from the waist down but there were no obvious signs of sexual attack or
trauma (创伤) severe enough to kill her. Police say it may be weeks before the results of an autopsy (尸
体解剖) are known.
     Brian Dickson, 29, stood before the court in a wrinkled white shirt and blue jeans as a charge of
first- degree murder was read out. He did not enter a plea. His case was held over until April 26.
     Dickson was arrested Wednesday. Police only announced his name and his age and asked the media
not to publish any photos of Dickson, saying it could compromise the investigation. Toronto police spokesman Tony Vella declined to respond to the request further.
     Liu's father, Liu Jianhui, who arrived from China after being informed of his daughter's death, thanked
authorities for their quick action.
     "I sincerely thank the people concerned with my daughter's case," he told reporters after the arrest.
"Our daughter was studying very hard."
     Police released no motive or details about Dickson, but one friend described the Toronto man as an
aspiring actor
.
     Patricia Tomasi, a friend of Dickson's, told The Associated Press that she acted in a play at a local
theater in Toronto with Dickson in 2007.
     "He doesn't seem like the type but that's what they always say," Tomasi said. "He's tall with boyish
good looks. I don't know much about him except that he wanted to be an actor."
     Dickson attended York University where he studied global politics, but did not earn a degree from
there.
     He later worked for the Atlantic Council of Canada (ACC), where he served as an assistant to the
president Juilie Lindhout. According to his biography on a newsletter from the Atlantic Council of
Canada, Dickson has also been a running instructor and has been involved with Developments in
Literacy, a Pakistani aid organization that raises money for children in Pakistan.
     A statement from the Atlantic Council of Canada on Thursday said it was not council policy to
comment on staff, but it confirmed that Dickson had been an intern(实习生) with the council from
September 29, 2008, until March 27, 2009.
     Liu was chatting with her boyfriend, Meng Xianchao, by webcam at about 1 am. Friday when a man
knocked on the door, police said.
     Meng reported seeing a struggle break out between the two before Liu's webcam was shut off. Meng
contacted other friends in Toronto who in turn called police.
   The victim's father, Liu Jianhui, said his daughter studied at Beijing City University before moving to
Canada, where she met Meng.
     Liu Qian's laptop computer, webcam and mobile phone were taken from the apartment the night of
the attack, police said. Police said the online chat was on a live streaming camera and was not recorded,
though investigators were trying to figure out if there was any way they could recover it.
     York University, whose campus is located near one of Toronto's rougher neighborhoods, is one of
Canada's largest universities with more than 53,000 undergraduate and graduate students. About 3,200
of York's students come from more than 150 foreign countries, the university's website says.
1. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. York University students come from over 150 foreign countries.
B. Dickson was a graduate of York University where he studied global politics.
C. The passage does not mention the reason why Dickson murdered Liu Qian.
D. ACC wouldn't make any comments on staff even if they committed a crime.
2. The underlined word in paragraph 8 probably means ______.
A. a successful actor    
B. a gifted actor  
C. a common actor
D. an ambitious actor
3. Why did police ask the media not to publish any photos of Dickson?
A. Worrying about bad influences on the investigation.
B. Not intending to give out any information about Dickson.
C. Not confirming whether Dickson had killed Liu Qian.
D. Wanting to protect their citizen for fear of losing face.
4. What can be inferred from the text?
A. Developments in Literacy raises money for all children
B. Seeing the struggle, Meng contacted Toronto police.
C. Dickson had no bad records before the murder.
D. Investigators could recover the chat record online.
