Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have 36 how difficult it is to write a 37 children's book. Either the author has aimed too 38. , so that the children can't follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 39 the story seems to be talking to the readers.
The best children's books are 40 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 41 who hears the story and the adult who 42 it. Unfortunately, there are in fact 43 books like this, 44 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 45 to solve.
This may be why many of books regarded as 46 of children's literature were in fact written for 47 . “Alice's Adventure in Wonderland” is perhaps the most 48 of this.
Children, left for themselves, often 49 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or 50 and he will more willingly choose the books 51 in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children's comics (连环画), full of the stories and jokes to which both teachers and right-thinking parents 52 .
Perhaps we parents should stop trying to persuade children into 53 our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so 54 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the 55 books. So I suppose we'll just have to compromise(妥协) over that bedtime story.

C
Have you ever heard the story of the four-minute mile? Many years ago, people believed that it was impossible for a human being to run a mile in less than four minutes until Roger Banister proved it wrong in1954.
What happens if you put an animal in a pond? Any animal, big or small, will swim its way through. What happens when someone, who does not know how to swim, falls in deep waters? They drown. If an animal who has not learned swimming could escape by swimming, why not you? Because you believe you will drown while the animal does not.
Have you ever wondered why the letters are organized in a particular order on hour keyboard? You might have thought it is to increase the typing speed. Most people never question it. But the fact is that this system was developed to reduce the typing speed at a time when typewriter parts would jam if the operator typed too fast.
These three cases show the power of our beliefs. There is no other more powerful directing force in human behavior than belief. Your beliefs have the power to create and to destroy. A belief delivers a direct command to your nervous system.
I used a snake in my workshops for children to show them how unrealistic some of their beliefs are. Students of a school in India, said snakes were slippery, slimy (黏糊糊的) and poisonous. After doing an exercise for changing beliefs, they handled my snake and found it to be dry and clean. They also remembered that only three types of poisonous snakes exist in India.
Did this story end the way you thought? Review your beliefs now and find out which ones you need to change.

Perhaps a parent’s most important contribution toward raising a trustful child is to develop a relationship founded on trust. A child of any age will feel proud and grown-up if parents frequently show their trust. In court a defendant(被告) is innocent until proved guilty. But in the family, a teenager “defendant” is too often assumed guilty.
Even when the child is caught in a complete lie, this should not be the end of trust. A parent can tell a child that a single lie is forgivable. Yet it should be clear that if lies continue, the child, like the boy who cried wolf, will suffer loss of trust.
When my wife and I discovered that our son Tom, then 13, had lied about throwing a party while we were away, we grounded him for a month. We also told Tom that we could no longer trust him, and we could not allow him to stay alone overnight again. This loss of freedom was an important lesson; he learned how hard it is to live with people when they don’t trust him. As a result, now more than three years later we can again trust Tom to stay alone overnight.
Parents must always remember there is no easy answer to this universal problem of lying. We can set a good example, allow for privacy, monitor friendship, develop trust and punish wrong doing, but still we discover our child has lied to us. Finally that’s why there is a need for trust on both sides of a parent-child relationship. Lying destroys closeness and friendship. For that reason, parents should always try to give a child the feeling that they can be trusted with the truth. Parents may start with a child’s trust, but as the child grows older, parents must earn it.
【小题1】When the writer and his wife discovered that their son had lied, they _________.
A.took all his freedom from him |
B.decided never to trust him again |
C.forbade him to stay alone overnight |
D.arranged him to stay at home. |
A.parents don’t trust their child as they should |
B.defendants are usually proved not guilty in court |
C.parents have too much trust in their child |
D.some children are founded guilty in court |
A.parents shouldn’t punish their children even if they lie |
B.it is not easy to deal with the problem of lying as parents |
C.there are effective ways to prevent children from lying |
D.children will stop telling lies as they grow up |

阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。(请注意问题后的字数要求)
[1] Learning to save money when you’re young is an important lesson. All good lessons and habits begin early, and saving is a skill that everyone needs. Many people---adults included-- do not have a good sense of saving for the long run.
[2] Make sure you save and don’t spend too much, which is a good way to build up wealth. I have put my earnings in a bank. Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow. Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving.
[3] At high school many parents pay for almost everything, so your expenses can be small. If you have a lot , you should have fun with some of the money. But you should also save some so that it will grow. Then you can begin planning for your future.
[4] After high school, college is expensive and then “real” life begins, with expenses such as food and rent. You can hold on to a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen. The earlier , the more time the money has to grow. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle. The earlier you begin saving, the easier it is to create a nest egg.
[5]Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills. If you want to buy a house and have a family, you need money to start with, which comes from saving.
[6]Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older. It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to do. In addition, it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying.
