3.For many years there's been a debate about rewarding our children.Does it work?Is it effective?
Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward.Punishment is given out in much the same way,but it's used when certain standards of performance,behavior,etc.have not been met.Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment,and work harder when promised a valuable reward.The problem is what happens when you aren't around.
To develop responsible,self-disciplined(自律的)kids,parents need to promote certain ideas.One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in(努力投入)and helps in your family,even if someone is not crazy about helping.Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so.When a task is for a worthy cause(our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clean it),and when parents are cheerful about their chores,this message can have a big impact.
This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility.When our children develop this responsibility,they'll be more disciplined,and they'll control their emotions better.When we give rewards to our kids,we reduce the sense of responsibility.We also create children who may temporarily(临时)perform to a certain standard,but who aren't likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them.
"Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while,but they cannot change the person who engages in the behavior,at least in the way we want,"said AIfie Kohn,author of Punished by Rewards."Good values have to be grown from the inside out.''Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a lifetime.The real rewards that your children receive wiiI be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them---a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline responsibility.So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself,and let your kids find their own rewards.

51.According to the passage,when children are threatened with punishment,B.
A.they may lose interest in their work    B.they may appear to be well-behaved
C.they may change to another person       D.the results will be worse than usual
52.What can we know from Paragraph 3?A
A.Parents should promote certain ideas to help children develop.
B.Children should be responsible for their discipline.
C.Children should help build a good family atmosphere.
D.No children will adapt to society without their parents'help.
53.The underlined part"the carrot"in Paragraph 4probably refers toA.
A.rewards    B.aims    C.apologies   D.doubts
54.According to the passage,Alfie Kohn would agree that parents shouldD.
A.pay no attention to the way their children do things
B.show their children how to behave by example
C.never punish their children
D.help their children establish good values
55.What's the best title for the passage?B
A.Do You Often Reward Your Children?
B.Should Parents Reward Their Children?
C.When Should Parents Reward Their Children?
D.What Can Parents Reward Their Children with?

54.D 细节推断题.文章第五段说Good values have to be grown from the inside out好的价值观是来自内心的;Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a lifetime父母应该帮助孩子养成有责任感和自律的品格,这些可以让他们收益终身.故选D.

点评 阅读理解是考查语篇理解能力.常考的题型有:推理判断题;主旨大意题;细节理解题;猜测词意题.近几年又出现了两种新的考查方式:写作态度判断题和文章结构题.解题时,在读懂文章的基础上,还有特别注意掌握题型的特征,尤其是细节题和推断题不可混淆:细节题是文章信息的再现;推断题是文章信息的提取.本题是广告类文章,考查主要是以细节题为主,细节题要注意常用的出题陷阱有:夸大,缩小,张冠李戴,偷梁换柱,无中生有等,做题时要看清看准.

8.About 6 percent of luxury hotels in three major Chinese cities have stopped serving shark fin(鱼翅),a survey has found.Although the controversial(有争议的)dish remains on the menu at most hotels,Green Beagle Environment Institute,a Beijing-based non-government organization that was the main sponsor of the survey,said the results are encouraging and reflect increased awareness.
The survey was carried out in Beijing,Shenzhen and Fuzhou,which were selected as representative cities to collect basic data on shark fin consumption nationwide.In Beijing,132 hotels completed the phone questionnaire between Nov.20 and Dec.12.Only 12 hotels,9 percent,said they do not serve shark fin.A similar survey of 131 Beijing hotels conducted a year ago found only one hotel that did not serve shark fin,Wang Xue,chief coordinator(协调人)of the survey,said on Saturday.In Shenzhen,four out of the 85 four and five star hotels surveyed had stopped serving shark fin,accounting for about 5 percent.In Fuzhou,only one of the 40 hotels surveyed did not serve shark fin.On average,about 6.61 percent of the hotels in the three cities did not serve the food.
"The survey reminded us there is still a long way to go to remove shark fins from Chinese hotels and restaurants,but the improved situation in Beijing is encouraging,"said Wang."We found more hotels and restaurants were willing to take action over the past year."International hotels are more active in the"shark-fin-free"project,she noted.China is the world's biggest importer and consumer of shark fin,which has been used in luxurious Chinese dishes for 500 years.Dishes made from shark fin are still regarded as a symbol of honor and respect,especially at business dinners,according to Wang.
Research has also found that shark fin contains poisonous elements,but the nutritious value is less than that of chicken or pork."We hope hotels and restaurants remove shark fin products from their menus,"Wang added.
