What am I doing with my daughter at home? Rather than read aloud from books, we go to dinner and have a very good time. This is usually when her Mom isn’t around, and this is when my little girl and I relate better. They’re alone together so much. We’re learn about each other. She learns that I’m her father. I learn that she’s my daughter. It’s a strange feeling, but any parent knows what I’m talking about when I say that I often look at my daughter and wonder just whose kid she is. Where’d she suddenly come from? And why on earth did she pick Laura and me for parents?
When my daughter and I are alone she’ll hold my hand and say, “I just love you so much, Daddy!” She gets this great look on her face and says, “We’ve got so much to do, Dad!” There’s nothing like it in the world.
I want my relationship with my daughter to keep growing, so I’ve been giving my wife a couple of hundred dollars each week and making her go to the shopping center with her girlfriends, or something-anything!
But this closeness is not without its problems. When I’m sitting there playing with her Barbie doll(巴比娃娃), washing her hair, a voice in me suddenly says, “I’ve got to get a drink and get out of here.” Right in the middle of all this pleasantness, the voice goes, “Look at yourself! You’re washing dolls!”
1. Why does the husband give his wife xo much money each week”
A. He wants her to buy more things for the family.
B. She can do whatever she likes with the money.
C. He can spend more time with his daughter.
D.She can spend more time with her friends.

B. The daughter is happy when the father tells her he will be away.
C. The father is happy, hearing “We’ve got so much to do, Dad!”
D.The father is sure that the daughter is not his own.
3. What does the last paragraph tell us about the father?
A. He doesn’t enjoy being with his daughter.
B. He doesn’t like washing his daughter’s hair.
C. He likes to enjoy himself by going out for a drink.
D.He has mixed feelings when he is with his daughter.

The quest for success always begins with a target. As Berra once said, “You got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there.”
Too many people wander through life like sleepwalkers．Each day they follow familiar routines, never asking, “What am I doing with my life?” and they don’t know what they’re doing because they lack goals．
Goal-setting is a focusing of the will to move in a certain direction．Begin with a clear conception of what you want．Write down your goals and date them—putting them into words clarifies them．Rather than concentrating on objects to acquire and possess, focus on fulfilling your desires to do, to produce, to contribute—goal-setting that yields the true sense of satisfaction we all need．
It’s important to visualize（想象）yourself accomplishing your goal．While losers visualize the penalties（不利）of failure, winners visualize the rewards of success．I’ve seen it among athletes, statistics contrasting air and highway safety, but it made no difference．I had read too many articles describing crash scenes and imagined these scenes vividly．I had programmed myself, without realizing it, to stay off planes．
Then one summer I had the opportunity to fly on a private plane with friends to a resort；I didn’t want to miss out on a great vacation．So I spent two weeks imagining a smooth flight on a beautiful sunny day and an easy landing．
When the day arrived, I was eager to go．To everyone’s surprise, I got on the plane and I loved every minute of it, and I still use the techniques I employed that day．
【小题1】According to the passage, if you want to be successful, the first thing for you to do is ________．
| A．find the right methods | B．be careful about everything |
| C．know your ability | D．have a clear goal |
| A．wander like a sleepwalker |
| B．know well what you are doing |
| C．do the same work every day |
| D．put it into words |
| A．he didn’t know air travel is safer than highway travel |
| B．he couldn’t imagine himself accomplishing his goal |
| C．he read too much about plane crashes and tried to avoid flying |
| D．he wanted to take a private plane instead of a public one |
| A．Define Your Coal |
| B．Visualize Rewards of Success |
| C．Overcome the Fear of Air Travel |
| D．Sleepwalking Through Life |

Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can
remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, “In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence”. Given that this is the case, why aren’t students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?
First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult. For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn’t in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution: stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or slid should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fire. On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.
After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution: listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker’s position. Then the two people should change roles.
Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. This doesn’t mean trying to figure out what’s wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn’t, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.
There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn’t mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, “64% of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75% of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92% of the students felt better about themselves”. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
1.This article is mainly about .
A. the lives of school children
B. the cause of arguments in schools
C. how to deal with school conflicts
D. how to analyze youth violence
2.From Paragraph 2 we can learn that .
A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
B. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
C. students tend to lose their temper easily
D. a small conflict can lead to violence
3.Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?
A. To make clear what the real issue is
B. To get ready to try new things.
C. To find out who is to blame
D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.
4.After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that .
A. more teachers felt better about themselves in schools
B. there was a decrease in classroom violence
C. there was less student cooperation in the classroom
D. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved
5.The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to .
