阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Once kids hit the teenage years, parenting becomes more difficult than ever. Establishing effective house rules is one of the best ways to educate teenagers. House rules must respect teenagers’ desire to be independent and make sure they behave responsibly.
How can effective house rules be established?
First of all, get your teenager to take part in making the rules, which can help keep them motivated to follow them. Ask their opinion about what sorts of things they think are important when creating the rules and try to include some of their ideas.
When creating the list of rules, don’t list every single rule imaginable. Instead, try to limit it to the ten most important rules. I’ve seen some parents come up with several pages of rules which turn out to be more like a rule book rather than a list. Remember, it is important to make the list easy to remember and to be a basic guide.
Then, it is important that you write out the list of rules and hang them in a prominent (显眼的) location. Keeping the rules on the refrigerator or displayed somewhere where everyone can see them is a good reminder. Revise the rules whenever there’s a need, not very frequently though.
Explain clearly in advance what negative consequences will be in store when a rule gets broken. But ensure that none of your consequences are equal to abusive parenting. For example, take off the rule that says — “if you don’t get home by 11 at night, make arrangements to stay elsewhere until morning”. Let helping with small household chores like cleaning up their own rooms serve as consequences for disobeying rules.
Following these tips on establishing effective house rules accompanied by constant positive reinforcement (执行) will help improve your teenager’s behavior. Hope you can direct your teenager to become a responsible and independent person with the help of house rules!

阅读下面短文和问题,根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求,在答题纸相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息,完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思清楚,结构正确,书写工整。
When the Nintendo Wii went on sale, people around the country stood in line for hours to get one. The popular video-game system isn’t just for fun and games. People such as Billy Perry, 64, are using Wii games to recover from pain and injuries. Perry plays Wii boxing and he says the game is helping him regain strength and feeling in his left arm. It is actually helping him recover from a stroke he had last year. A stroke is the sudden loss of consciousness and voluntary movement caused by a blocked artery (受阻碍的动脉)in the brain.

Across the country, hospitals are having patients try their hands at the Nintendo Wii. Playing the games can improve a patient’s strength and coordination (协调能力). It is especially useful for people who are trying to recover from strokes and broken bones. The Wii console (控制台)has a unique wireless controller. The controller requires players to move their bodies to play Wii games such as tennis, golf and baseball. Experts say the arm and hand movements Wii players make are similar to traditional exercises performed in physical therapy (treatment).
Physical therapy is often painful. Some medical experts say playing games on the Wii takes patients’ attention away while giving them the exercise they need. Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington D.C., offers Wii games for soldiers injured in the war. Doctor Daugherty says the practice is great for young soldiers who are interested in video games. “They think it’s for entertainment, but we know it’s for therapy. ”she says. Some experts want more proof that the Nintendo Wii helps the injured recover. Researchers in Minneapolis are doing a study to measure patients’ functions before and after using a Wii.
按具体要求回答下面问题,在答题纸相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息。
小题1:What is the Nintendo Wii? (不多于4个词)
小题2:Who might be able to benefit most from Wii games? (不多于8个词)
小题3:Why isn’t playing Wii games so painful as physical therapy? (不多于6个词)
小题4:What is the main idea of the whole passage? (不多于7个词)

根据短文内容,从A-F选项中选出能概括每段主题的最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余项。
A. Be yourself.
B. Be humorous.
C. Have a big heart.
D. Don’t try to be popular.
E. Reduce your sense of your own value.
F. Think of others more than yourself.
Secrets of Being Popular
To be honest, most people liked to be respected and admired by other people. These are some suggestions which can help you win popularity naturally:
小题1:__________
It is a big mistake try to be liked by all people. When you want to impress other people and please them, it is impossible to avoid insincere praise. This will impress people for a short time, but it can not be continued for a long time. You have to base friendship on being your natural self and avoid always trying to win other people’s respect and admiration.
小题2:__________
People appreciate those who are considerate of others. If you only talk about yourself and your achievements, people will try to avoid you. People naturally respect those who are willing to spend time listening to others. Only when we put other people’s needs before our own can we become well received by them.
小题3:__________
There is no need to pretend to be someone you are actually not. If you are satisfied with who you are, you will allow your natural qualities to be noticed by other people, and this is what will naturally attract them. All real happiness and success come from inside. Besides, people will like you only when you accept yourself.
小题4:__________
Learn to be generous and forgiving when you deal with other people. Forget their small mistakes, but appreciate their good points. If you go out of your way to appreciate the good qualities of others, then people will begin to like your generous spirit and be friendly with you.
小题5:__________
Some people try to impress people by appearing to be wise and talking all about their own achievements. But when you enlarge your sense of your own value, you only increase your popularity with yourself. If you really do good things, there is no need for you to make your wonderful performance known to the public yourself. Others will do it for you.
