18.A.What do you think of the competition between China and the US?
B.What do you think of the image of"tiger mom?"
C.How do your daughters take the criticism about you after your book was published?
D.You said you would not get her Christmas gifts or anything when your daughter refused to repeatedly practice the music.How did your husband respond?
E.What do you think makes a good mother?
F.What does your husband think of your method of bringing up kids?

61.E
Chua's answer:Well,actually I think there are many ways of being a good mother.In my book my focus is just a memory about my own family story,me trying to raise my own children in a kind of traditional Chinese way.I make mistakes and I make fun of myself.It's amazing the way the book has been received internationally,because.I didn't intend my book to be telling other people of view and I am a proud strict"tiger mom".But I'm not trying to tell other people what are the best ways to teach or raise their children.
62.B
Chua's answer:Well,the title may sound a little frightening.Let me tell you why I chose the title.I was born in the year of the tiger.And"battle Hymn"in the United States comes from"The Battle Hymn of the Republic".The book is really about finding some sort of balance:how can we find the balance between the eastern way of parenting and the western way of parenting.In mays the book as been misunderstood maybe because of the title.
63.A
Chua's answer:I didn't write this book to have any foreign policy implications.But it's been taken into the foreign policy realm.It is of course true that there is a connection between child-raising and the future of nations.We are raising,as parents,the next generation.So I think Henry is right.We tapped into this thing of insecurity,American's fear about the rising power of china.A friend of mine told me that if the book hasd been called The Battle Hymn of an Italian Mother or The Battle Hymn of a Mexican Mother,nobody would have cared.It's really"China".you know.
64.F
Chua's answer:I don't think he opposes my idea of raising children.I'd like to think we have a combination,which is the right solution.You need a balance.From my perspective,what I give my kids is something that I thought was lacking in the US educational system.You know,they hate memorization,while in China you have too much of it.In the US,learning should be fun,a lot of games,.So I b rought hard work and disciplines.My husband and I think this is a great thing always teaching them to question the authority and to ask why.Don't accept everything just because somebody tells you.Figure it out yourself.I really think you need to combine both these qualities if you want creativity and dynamism.
65.C
Chua's answer:They both are stronger than I am.I am really proud of them.Their friends and communities supported them.At a time,I couldn't even look at the Internet because there are so many negative comments.And they would find the good ones and text them to me,saying"here's a good one mommy,hang in there."This experience has actually brought my family together.Believe it or not,not just my kids,also my parents and my three younger sisters have supported me.

16.Many little girls like flowers,watching butterflies and riding small horses.A lot of them also like cars,robots and spaceships.But most girls'clothing only has pictures of flowers,butterflies or horses.
Two mothers decided to make clothes that include all the things that little girls do and love.
Six-year-old Bella loves to play with cars.So her dress has pictures of cars on it.
"We haven't found this type of dress in the store,"Cathy,Bella's mother,says.
The car dress is from a new girl's clothing line called Princess Awesome.Rebecca Melsky set up the business.She says its products for girls have some designs normally found on boys'clothes.
It all started two years ago when Rebecca was hoping to buy clothing for her two-year-old,who liked robots,trucks and spaceships.
"One day when I walked through a girls'store,I thought to myself I wish they'd make one of those beautiful dresses that also have a robot on it because she will love that.And I thought someone should do that.Maybe I should do that,"Rebecca,said.
Her friend Eva St.Clair believed she should,and their business was born.The women sold the first 70 dresses they made at a market.So they decided to expand their business online.Their products sold very well there,too.
"They sold out so fast that I could not make them fast enough.We decided it was time to think about a factory,"Rebecca said.
So they started to raise money from people over the Internet.The women raised more than 215,000 within days,far more than the 35,000 they expected.
"Our biggest challenge is going to be how we expand as rapidly as people seem to want us to,"Rebecca said.
The women hope Princess Awesome will expand into products for girls of all ages and all interests.

3.A student has produced a series of vivid photographs that reveal what the networks that keep us connected to the web look like.
The images,created by Luis Hernan from Newcastle University,show mystery of Wi-Fi sweeping and swirling(旋转)around in bright beams.They were produced as part of Hernan's Digital Ethereal project,which aims to bring the invisible world around us to life.Luis,who is studying for a PhD in Architecture and Interaction Design,said he is fascinated with the idea of being able to see the hidden wireless networks which surround us.He said,"I call the images‘specters (恐怖之物)'because wireless networks remind me of ghosts.They are there but you can't see them with the human eyes.""The fact that we are becoming increasingly reliant on something that we can't see inspires me.I want to find a way to show the wireless which is around us and also to show how it changes."
Hernan created the photographs using a custom-made instrument designed to reveal them.It scans continuously for wireless networks,and transforms the signal strength to colour LEDs.The results are multi-coloured lines of light which spin and wrap in spaces,showing how they surround objects and people.
Hernan has also created an app which can be downloaded for free,and for Android devices called Kirlian,which allows people to see the strength of Wi-Fi around them.He said"I would love other people to get involved and to create their own images using the app.""I used it as an important part of an exhibition of my work,where we hung mobile phones from the ceiling and it showed how signal strength was varying as people moved around the room."
28.The purpose of Hernan's Digital Ethereal project is toB.
A.produce a series of photos            
B.visualize what cannot be seen
C.reveal the images of Wi-Fi           
D.bring bright beams to life
29.Which of the description about Hernan's invention is WRONG?C
A.It scans for wireless signals and transforms them into color LEDs.
B.Colorful beams of light are shown to reveal invisible Wi-Fi.
C.Hernan's app Kirlian is just for Android's download system.
D.People can download an app to see the strength of Wi-Fi around them.
30.What does the underlined word"it"in the last paragraph mean?A
A.An app.B.An Android device.C.Wi-Fi.D.The ceiling.
31.Which of the following can best describe Hernan?A
A.Creative.B.Honest.C.Modest.D.Tolerant.

The past six years have been filled with adventures.My children and I have gone swimming with dolphins,watched whales and hiked around the crater rim (火山口边缘) of the volcano.We wake up every morning with the ocean in front of us and the volcano behind us.
The dream I had more than 40years ago is now reality.I'm living freely and happily ever after.
