You may be surprised to see “making sure children never suffer” as a mistake. The following may help you understand how rescuing children from all suffering weakness.
A little boy felt sorry for a butterfly struggling to from its chrysalis. He decided to the butterfly. So he peeled the chrysalis open for the butterfly. The little boy was so to watch the butterfly spread its wings and fly off into the sky. Then he was horrified he watched the butterfly fall to the ground and die because it did not have the muscle to keep flying. In fact, the butterfly’s struggle to the chrysalis helps the butterfly become stronger.
Like the little boy, too often want to protect their children from struggle in the of love. They don’t realize that their children need to struggle, to experience , to deal with disappointment, and to solve their own problems. Only in this way can children their emotional strength, become and develop the skills necessary for the even bigger struggles they will meet throughout their lives. Children experiencing sufferings can the ups and downs of life.
However, it isn’t helpful either in this case when parents lectures(训斥), blame and shame to what the child is experiencing. Mothers to say, “Stop crying and acting like a spoiled boy. You can’t always get what you want.” These words should be avoided.
Instead, parents can offer loving support. You can say, “Don’t lose . Be brave! You will succeed if you try again.” Then comes the tough part—no a no lectures. Simply allow him to discover that he can get over his disappointment and what he can do to get what he wants in the future.

The splendid aurora light displays that appear in Earth’s atmosphere around the north and south magnetic(磁的) poles were once mysterious phenomena. Now, scientists have data from satellites and ground-based observations from which we know that the aurora brilliance is a massive electrical discharge similar to that occurring in a neon sign.
To understand the cause of auroras, first picture the Earth enclosed by its magnetosphere(磁层), a huge region created by the Earth’s magnetic field. Outside the magnetosphere, rushing toward the earth is the solar wind, a speedily moving body of ionized(离子化的) gases with its own magnetic field. Charged particles(粒子) in this solar wind speed earthward along the solar wind’s magnetic lines of force. The Earth’s magnetosphere is a barrier to the solar winds, and forces the charged particles of the solar wind to flow around the magnetosphere itself. But in the polar regions, the magnetic lines of force of the Earth and of the solar wind gather together. Here many of the solar wind’s charged particles break through the magnetosphere and enter Earth’s magnetic field. They then rush back and forth between the Earth’s magnetic poles very rapidly and ionize and excite the atoms of the upper atmosphere of the Earth, causing them to produce aurora radiations of visible light.
The colors of an aurora depend on the atoms producing them. The leading greenish-white light comes from low energy excitation of oxygen atoms. During huge magnetic storms oxygen atoms also undergo high energy excitation and produce pink light. Excited nitrogen(氮) atoms contribute bands of color varying from blue to violet. Viewed from outer space, auroras can be seen as dimly shining belts wrapped around each of the Earth’s magnetic poles. Each aurora hangs like a curtain of light stretching over the polar regions and into the higher latitudes. When the solar flares(闪光) that result in magnetic storms and aurora activity are very strong, aurora displays may extend as far as the southern regions of the United States.
1.What is it that directly gives off aurora light?
A. The Earth’s magnetic field.
B. The solar wind’s magnetic field.
C. The Earth’s ionized particles.
D. The solar wind’s charged particles.
2.What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?
A. The appearance of auroras around the Earth’s poles.
B. The periodic change in the display of auroras.
C. The factors that cause the variety of colors in auroras.
D. The covering area of auroras based on their colors.
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. The magnetosphere increases the speed of particles from the solar wind.
B. The color of greenish-white appears least frequently in an aurora display.
C. Earth’s magnetic field contributes to the variety and difference of aurora’s colors.
D. The strength of the solar flares has a positive effect on the extending distance of aurora.

I was in a charity shop looking at the second hand books.It just so happened that the book shelves were next to the toy section.After a few minutes I became aware of a group of women standing behind me.They were poorly dressed and spoke in what sounded like an eastern European language.As they looked through the clothes rails a little girl,about three years old,came over to the toy section.Immediately her attention was caught by a toy pram(婴儿车). What is it about little girls and toy prams? I don't know,but whatever it is its incredibly cute! She spoke to her mother and,in halting English her mother asked the shop assistant how much it cost.Three pounds was the answer---about five dollars.The mum looked down at her child,perhaps calculating what she still had to buy and how much money she would have left.Then she simply shook her head. The child didn't react badly as some might.Being told“no”was obviously not a new experience for her.But she couldn't keep the disappointment from her face. I had the grand total of four pounds in my pocket,two two-pound coins.A moment later I tapped the mother on the shoulder,pointed to the coins which I had left in the pram and said,“Buy her a dolly too.” I didn't hang about to see the end result.After all,it's not about being thanked.I made my way out of the shop and into the sunshine. The money was an investment in the happiness of the world.Was there any better way,I wondered,to get so much happiness for so little money than to buy a little girl a toy pram?

December 15,2014
Dear Alfred,
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150+ at 17, I’m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADHD(注意力缺陷多动障碍).Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep for more than an hour at a time.
However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant precollege courses.
While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldn’t. So I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.
Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your videos. This has given me a purpose.
Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public, I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.
Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel whole.
This is why you’re saving my life.
Yours,
Tains
1.Why didn’t Tains go to college after high school?
A. She had learned enough about computer science.
B. She had more difficulty keeping focused.
C. She preferred taking online courses.
D. She was too slow to learn.
2.As for the working environment,Tanis prefers ________.
A. working by herself B. dealing with the public
C. competing against others D. staying with ADHD students
3.Tanis wrote this letter in order to ________.
A. explain why she was interested in the computer
B. share the ideas she had for her profession
C. show how grateful she was to the center
D. describe the courses she had taken so far

My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.
Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电)noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉)shaking my set.
When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.
1.Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?
A. He got an older model than he had expected.
B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.
C. He could have bought it at a lower price.
D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.
2.Which of the following can best replace the phrase” signed off” in Paragraph 1?
A. ended all their programs B. provided fewer channels
C. changed to commercials D. showed all-night movies
3.How did the author finally get his TV set working again?
A. By shaking and hitting it. B. By turning it on and off.
C. By switching channels. D. By having it repaired.
4.How does the author sound when telling the story?
A. Curious. B. Anxious. C. Cautious. D. Humorous.
