I have two kids, a boy and a girl. I don’t worry about my girl; I’m sure she’ll be well trained in mixed martial arts. I worry about my son. I’m pretty sure he’s going to be feminine (女性化的). Sorry to say that, but let’s face it. No dad wants his son to go feminine.
At the rate we’re moving in a couple of years you won’t be able to tell the difference between boys and girls. Sound extreme? Think about this. In every movie where advanced time-traveling beings come to our planet, there’s one constant: You can’t tell the male aliens from the female aliens!
But that’s the future. Kids today are soft and fat. People ask why. Is it junk food? No. Junk food has been around for fifty years. Is it video games? No. Video games have been around for thirty years. None of the kids playing them back in the day were terribly obese. We’re all scratching our heads trying to figure out what we’ve introduced to society to ruin our kids. But it’s not anything we’ve added that has ruined our kids. It’s stuff we’ve gotten rid of.
Take the gym rope for example. Remember that thing that stretched from the floor to the ceiling in your gym class that you could never climb? Most of the kids couldn’t make it to the top. But that wasn’t the point; the point was you had to try while some middle-aged guy who couldn’t make it up a flight of stairs shouted at you. We should have put our son on that rope, and given him a head start. But we didn’t want to shame the boy, so we took it down.
Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But they’re everywhere. You just can’t see them. They’re in every goal unrealized and expectation not met. The point everyone missed about the rope is you weren’t supposed to make it to the top. It was there to create a fire that burned in the oversize belly of every kid.
1.What is the example of aliens used to show?
A．Girls are growing like boys.
B．Boys are going feminine.
C．There are really time-traveling beings.
D．Alien movies are popular with children.
2.What causes kids today to be soft and fat?
A．Junk food.
B．Video games.
C．Stuff introduced to society.
D．Things removed from society.
3.How does the author find teenagers today?
A．They have too much dignity.
B．They are overprotected.
C．They are less independent.
D．They are thought too highly of.
4.What does the rope probably symbolize?
A．Goals.B．Expectations.C．Competition.D．Assistance.

In eighth grade, I decided to try out for my school musical. I only made it through the first verse(节) before the drama teacher stopped me. It goes without saying that my Christmas song didn’t get me any role.
Am I embarrassed? NO. Not just because it was ten years ago, but also because it’s such a great story to share. Why? I think the main reason is that admitting mistakes makes you easier to relate to. Interestingly enough, science confirms this theory.
Researchers have conducted many studies and have concluded that when someone makes a mistake or acts in a clumsy way, they are found to be more likeable. In other words, if you’re able to do well and then you mess up, it shows your human side. This allows others to connect and relate to you, which in turn makes them like you more.
Growing up, I was type of student who had to get straight A’s and the type of athlete who always had to perform at the top of the game. The problem was that my standards were so ridiculously high that I was never happy. It was only when I learned to let go and forgive myself for my mistakes that I truly felt relaxed.
When one of your close friends or family members makes a mistake, are you quick to forgive and forget? Sadly, many of us often express more sympathy for others than ourselves. With each mistake coming a lesson, you will be better equipped to handle life’s challenges going forward.
More importantly, if you are always worried about looking silly, you will never be able to get improved. Even if you make a fool of yourself, it isn’t the end of the world. Think about it: What’s the worst that can happen? In many cases, the reward often outweighs the risk.
1.By writing the passage, the author wants to tell us ________.
A. it is time to forgive others
B. everyone may make mistakes
C. it’s okay to make mistakes
D. what can be done to forgive our mistakes
2.What does the underlined part “this theory” probably refer to?
A. A mistake makes you more likeable.
B. An embarrassed person tends to act clumsily.
C. People mess up in life at times.
D. It’s good to share a great story with others
3.According to the passage, we know the author ________.
A. is pleased with her hard work
B. was once a person who wants things to be perfect
C. was happy with her high standard
D. never forgives herself for the mistakes she made
4.What message is delivered in the last two paragraphs?
A. Making a fool of yourself.
B. Viewing mistakes as learning opportunities.
C. Admitting mistakes is risky.
D. People tend to feel sorry for themselves.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多途选项。
It is necessary but difficult for English beginners to memorize new words, and long lists of words seem to make the task impossible. They are puzzled why they try to memorize words with great efforts but forget them easily. That's why there are often inquiries about how to memorize new words. 1. Here are some tips to help.
2. We too often separate the process of new words memorization from pronunciation. In fact these two can be combined and each will enhance the other. Saying the word to ourselves helps activate hearing memory, which helps the memory. 3. The more familiar we are with the word, the greater chance we will have to keep it for the rest of our life.
Never memorize single English words. 4. Relate the word to terms we already know, either as synonym（同义词） or antonym（反义词）. For example, the word "gargantuan" is similar in meaning to words "gigantic", "huge" and "large". Make a order of words: "small, medium, large, gigantic, and gargantuan".
Create a mental image of the word that involves strong emotions. Think, "The gargantuan whale is going to swallow me whole".
Learning English words requires action. Complaining how difficult it is to memorize new words will be of little help. 5. Have a try with ten words a day and you will see what a difference you will make in our English learning.
A. So take action right now.
B. Speak the word while memorizing it.
C. Memorizing new words is very important.
D. Actually, some have given up learning new words.
E. In fact, learning new words needn't be that difficult.
F. Make as many associations and connections as possible.
G. The sound of word helps us recall the spelling and familiarizes us with the word.
