注意:每个空格只填1个单词。

  When young children are learning to ride a bicycle, they require that their parents hold on to the back of the bike so that they gain confidence and won’t fall off.

  However, when children leave to go to college, or get married, parents must accept that their children are riding off into their own future.At this time, parents shouldn’t stand back and with the children gone, they are left with an empty nest.How can parents get through this period of life?

  The first thing you should do is nothing at all.You should actually take some time to rest since your child was born.Just relax and reward yourself for the work you put into your child.

  Taking some time for yourself will allow you to adjust to the change and figure out how you really feel about your child’s departure(离开).You shouldn’t compare how you feel with how other people feel, as everyone’s experience of an empty nest is different.

  Exercise is a great mood lifter.A physical fitness program may have been one of the first sacrifices(牺牲)you made when your child came along; now, with fewer duties, you’ll have time to hit the gym regularly.If you have a friend who also has become an empty nester recently, you may have found a new companion.Not only will you get the chance to share dealing with tips, you’ll also create social opportunities for yourself, which will get you out of that empty house if you need to.

  We all have those things that we say we’ll do or learn “someday”.If you’re an empty nester, the “someday” might just be now.

  If you’re not sure exactly what to do in all your spare time, take your time and think about it.It will, however, probably be easier to figure out your dream when you’re out.Try exploring a nearby museum or attraction you’ve never visited.

  Many parents may fear an empty nest because they worry that their little birds have flown away forever.Try setting up a regular phone date with your child.A once-a-week call may make you feel satisfied while giving your child a reasonable degree of freedom.

You might say that one reason why Barack Obama is president of the US is that he knows how to give a good speech.

Since 2004, Obama has written and delivered thousands of speeches. These are usually praised for two reasons: he treats the audiences like intelligent(有智慧的) adults, and he is able to express complicated ideas in an easy, natural way.

Before becoming president, Obama was a lawyer, a college professor, and a successful writer---his two memories have become best-sellers.

What’s more, he has some secret weapons.

Teleprompter: Obama doesn’t go anywhere without his Teleprompter. The textbook-sized panes of glass holding the president’s prepared remarks follow him wherever he goes to speak.

Writing team: Obama has a team of people who write his speeches. The writers chat with Obama for hours about what he wants to say. They listen to recordings of past presidential speeches and seek advice from advisers. Obama usually edits(编辑)and rewrites the drafts(草稿)several times.

Tricks for lighthearted speeches:

Make fun of the guests: Obama starts his speech by gently teasing his guests. His opening lines draw the audience’s attention while giving them an opportunity to relax and laugh at themselves and each other.

Make fun of yourself: A good rule for speechmakers: If you’re going to make a joke about someone else, be sure to make one about yourself, too. Obama mocks(嘲弄) his own poor choices for filling the position of Commerce Secretary, saying, “No president in history has ever named three Commerce Secretaries this quickly.” In fact, his first two nominees(被提名人)for the position withdrew(撤出) their names for different reasons. In a process that had otherwise gone smoothly, the Obama Administration found it hard to deal with the problem of filling the Commerce seat.

1.Obama made the poetic and inspiring speech in 2004 as________.

A. president                     B. a nominee for the presidency

C. a senator                     D. a secretary

2.What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?

A. Difficult to understand.           B. Easy to understand.

C. Different from others.             D. Interesting to say.

3.From the passage, we know that Obama’s secret weapons are all these EXCEPT ____.

A. a writing team                 B. a teleprompter             C. humor                   D. motivation

4.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Secrets of Obama’s successful speeches.  

B. Obama’s successful speeches.

C. Obama’s way of making speeches. 

D. Problems of Obama’s speeches.

When six the very best students from different cities in Guandong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best student of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment (录取)rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.

Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.

It’s no doubt to call this HK craze(狂热),which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.

How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?

First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.

Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual(双语)education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.

Further more, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.

Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.

The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.

At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees(学费)are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.

1.What is the passage mainly talking about?

    A.Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.

        B.Higher education in Hong Kong.

    C.The competition between HK University and Peking University.

        D.The fall of mainland universities.

2.Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because           .

    A.many students now would love to study aboard to get a better experience.

    B.they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities.

C. HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study.

        D.Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation.

3.What is the author’s attitude toward the competition brought by HK universities?

       A.The government should take relevant measures to stop this unfair competition.

B.Mainland universities had better lower their tuition fees and win back the top students.

C.Universities both in mainland and in HK would get an entire improvement during the competition.

       D.It may probably cause a complete loss both sides in the end.

4.From the passage we can see HK universities           .

       A.didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland

       B.didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular

 C.have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there

       D.are proud of their teaching staff and facilities

5.What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?

    A.Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.

        B.The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.

C.Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge mainland universities.

       D.Top students should be offered further education free of charge.
