As children grow, so does their desire to become independent. 1. . As parents, our job is to find the right balance between kids’ desire for independence and the need to keep kids safe.
Kids need to be allowed, in fact encouraged; they like to be given certain risks. 2. . The right risk level for your child will depend on their age, developmental level, and character. It will change over time, and there are few hard and fast rules that apply to every child.
3. Every time you put your kids in the car you are putting them at risk. It is a fact of life.
So what is a parent to do ? We must encourage them to explore their world while setting clear limits where safety is an issue. 4. . We must let them run, but be prepared to catch them when they fall. We can’t take their steps for them; we can only point out the path.
It’s hard to imagine when they are small, but someday very soon they will be walking , riding a bike, even driving ! 5. .
A. Children do not often want to become independent.
B. It is impossible for any of us to live completely risk-free.
C. The goal for parents is to determine how much risk is appropriate.
D. Often they will become more willing to take risks and try new things.
E. Sometimes it is really tough for parents to encourage their children to be independent.
F. Someday they must face the world without us, and part of our job is to prepare them for that.
G. If we are overprotective, they are likely to grow up ill-prepared to meet and overcome the challenges they must inevitably(不可避免地) face.

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth...So I decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,”I said, “OK,”he said. “I'll give you twenty pounds.” “It's got a slightly broken leg,”I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.”
Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I'11 buy it.” I said. “What do you mean?” “You've just sold it to me.” he said. “Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.”“You must be crazy. ”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You're right.”I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you mend this chair for me?’” “I wouldn't have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I'll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?" He was a very nice man and was greatly amused(感到有趣) by the whole thing.
1.We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer ________.

B. The writer didn’t want to offer enough money.

“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’ than ever before,” says Patsy Rowe, “ Manners have fallen off the radar (雷达).” Due to our strong attachment to electronic equipment it is a wonder that more people don’t wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.
Some people prefer to do almost everything over the Internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary (进化的) step backward. It feels very slow because humans don’t work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so making calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous (匿名的) rude messages by email.
However, rudeness is never acceptable. Don’t assume it is OK to be rude if the person you’re in touch with won’t recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.
We shouldn’t blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us, but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be better if we’d publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.
1.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?
A. People can tell good behavior from bad behavior.
B. Radar is able to observe human behavior.
C. People care little about their behavior.
D. Radar can be used to predict human behavior.
2. Some people are less willing to deal with humans because _________.
A. they are becoming less patient
B. they are growing too independent
C. they have to handle many important messages
D. they have to follow an evolutionary step backward
3. The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is _________.
A. ridiculous B. disgusting
C. acceptable D. reasonable
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. We should applaud good behavior.
B. Technology can never be blamed.
C. We should keep pointing out mistakes.
D .Technology will take over our lives one day.
