[1] The kids get home from school—tired, hungry and looking for entertainment. The last thing they want to do is to get on with their homework. However, at this very time, parents often remind the kids to do their homework by nagging(唠叨)and cajoling(哄骗). If that doesn’t work, homework wars break out. But with some basic rules and good habits, they can be avoided.

[2] When it comes to preparing your kids for homework success, one of the first things to begin is the environment they are working in. Not all children will like working alone in their bedrooms. Some children might prefer to study at the kitchen table, and providing that location works for the family, there’s no reason to force them into another room.

[3] Try to keep the house relatively quiet and free of distractions. If you’re worried you can’t provide the right equipment or environment at home, see whether the local library could offer an alternative place to study. Also, some schools will offer homework clubs, where students can complete homework and seek help from a supervising teacher(指导老师)if needed.

[4] Once you’ve got the study environment sorted, think about when is _____ for homework to be done. If children are old enough to make plans, it can be worth sitting down together and breaking projects into smaller tasks to be completed on different nights. This can stop kids form feeling overwhelmed(被压垮)and it also teaches them time management skills.

[5] If you follow the above rules, you can avoid homework wars down the track. And if tensions are rising at home around homework, remember that a little bit of kindness can go a long way.

科目:高中英语 来源:2013届浙江省杭州四中高三第九次教学质检英语试卷(带解析) 题型:填空题

下面文章中有5处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(  A、B、  C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

A. Find a fiction book.
B. Learn how to read your card.
C. Find your non-fiction book.
D. Decide if you want to search by author, title or subject.
E. Learn to find the card you need.
F. Understand the Dewey Decimal System.
 
The card catalog was once found in every library. Most libraries have now replaced the card catalog with a computerized cataloging system. However, some libraries still have the set of drawers with thousands of cards inside, and some library patrons still prefer the hands-on approach to researching the information they need. Cards are set up alphabetically in long drawers. Different types of cards are kept separate from each other so you may search by author, title or subject. Learning to use the card catalog can help you find the book you want without waiting for a computer terminal.
Instructions:
1______
Once you have found the card for the book you want, write down the numbers and letters at the top of the card and the title and author of the book. The numbers at the top are how the book is cataloged using the Dewey Decimal System, and the letters are the first three letters of the author's last name. Your library will have the numbers at the end of the stacks (the shelves of books), so find the stack your book is located in, then scan the shelves of that stack until you locate the number on the card. More than one book can have the same number, so you will narrow down your search if you have the first three letters of the author's name.
2______
The cards in a card catalog reference other cards. An author card will also have a book title and subject, a title card will have the author and subject, and a subject card will have author and title. This is handy for cross-referencing, so if you want to read a book on beekeeping, you can look that up in the subject cards and find an individual card on each book the library carries on beekeeping.
3______
If you want to look up a book by Stephen King, find the author cards in your library's card catalog, and look under "K". The cards are organized by last name and are broken down into the individual drawers. Sometimes a letter will take up more than one drawer, so you may find drawers that have "Ka-Ke" and then "Ki-Kr." Stephen King will be in the drawer with "Ki-Kr." You would find a card in a similar manner by title or by subject by finding the drawer with the corresponding letters such as "Be" for beekeeping in the subject cards or "Wr" for "The Writer's Market" ("The" is not considered part of titles).
4______
This isn't required to use the card catalog, but it can make searching for your book a little easier. The numbers range from 000 to 999; 000-099 are general subjects, 100-199 are psychology and philosophy, 200-299 is religion, 300-399 is social science, 400-499 is language, 500-599 are natural science and math, 600-699 is applied sciences, 700-799 is art, 800-899 are literature and plays, and 900-999 are geography and history.
5______
The author card will have a call number at the top, a line with the author's name with last name first, then lines for the title of the book, its publisher, a brief summary and subject listings. For an author with many books like Stephen King, there will be a card for each of his books in alphabetical order. Title cards are similar but have the title first, then the author in the following line. Subject cards have the subject in all capital letters at the very top of the card and the same information as on an author's card. Many cards on the same subject will be organized by the authors' last names.

Poor families in some countries spend as much as eighty percent of their money on food. Rising prices in recent months have created the worst food crisis(危机) in more than thirty years. The United Nations World Food Program says high food prices could push one hundred million people into hunger.

Nathan Childs is an expert on rice markets. He notes that the harvest for the latest growing season was the largest on record. But India, Vietnam and others have restricted exports(限制出口) to keep prices down at home and protect supplies.

Thailand’s agriculture minister says his country will never restrict rice exports. He told the Reuters news agency Thursday that Thailand has enough supplies to meet demand at home and for export.

Thailand is the world’s largest rice exporter. Recent signs of an increase in supplies have helped ease record prices for Thai rice. Prices rose last week above one thousand dollars a ton.

Vietnam, the second biggest exporter, has banned(禁止) exports until June. And Vietnamese officials have now warned that non-food traders who buy rice for speculation(投机活动)will be severely punished.

Some experts say speculation is a necessary part of market activity. But the head of the U.N. Environment Program blames it for the high food prices. “We have enough food on this planet today to feed everyone.” Achim Steiner told the Associated Press.

Earlier, a member of the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission didn’t accept the idea that speculators are the main cause. Bart Chilton blamed reduced harvests and grain supplies and the falling value of the dollar.

U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called heads of major international agencies to a meeting this week in the Swiss capital, Bern. He says high food prices could harm world trade, economic growth, social progress and political security.

1.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.Vietnam has banned rice exports to other countries.

B.Thailand is the largest rice exporter in the world.

C.Some families are too poor to afford enough food.

D.Rising prices of food have led to the world food crisis.

2.Which country restricted food exports according to the passage?

A. Thailand.    B. Switzerland.    C. Vietnam.    D. The USA.

3.All of the following are the results of rising prices of food EXCEPT ____.

A.the worst food crisis

B.reduced harvests and grain supplies

C.people spending more money on food

D.pushing one hundred million people into hunger

4.What is the reason for the speculation according to the head of the U.N. Environment Program?

A.High food prices.

B.The falling value of the dollar.

C.Enough rice supplies in some countries.

D.Restricted food exports in some countries.

     If international leaders were as united as the scientific community on climate change, global warming might
be a thing of the past. "The world's scientists have spoken clearly and with one voice," UN Secretary General
Ban Ki Moon said, "I expect the world's policymakers to act the same."
     Unfortunately, the global political community is a long way from speaking with one voice on anything, and
climate change is no exception. We'll know for sure next week,when environment and energy ministers from
around the world meet on the Indonesian island of Bali for the UN's climate change conference. The summit
(首脑会议) has been held nearly every year since 1992, when the UNFCCC (《联合国气候变化框架公约》)-
the document that has since guided international work on global warming-was agreed on. It was at the 1997
conference that the Kyoto Protocol was passed, but since then, there has been little progress.
     This year's talks will be the most important international environmental discussions in over a decade. The
Kyoto Protoco-which requires developed nations who have agreed on the solution to cut their greenhouse gas
emissions (排放) to about 5% below their 1990 levels by 2012-comes to an end in just five years. The world
needs to begin immediately at Bali the process of preparing another document like Kyoto to be ready by the
end of 2012. Otherwise, we'll be faced with a global vacuum (真空状态), just at the very moment when
greenhouse emissions must begin falling in order to avoid dangerous climate change.
     The good news is that, just last week,150 top global corporations approved a request calling for necessary
cuts in greenhouse gas emissions, a business position that was unthinkable just a year ago. Australia-a Kyoto
holdout, like the U.S.-has just elected a new prime minister with a strong environmental record who says he'll
support the protocol. The U.S. Congress and representatives have also stepped in and taken their own steps
on climate change.
     "There is a building sense that enough time has been wasted and that it is time to act," said Jennifer
Haverkamp, international counsel for Environmental Defense.
1. The passage was written to tell us that _____.
A. developed countries should cut their greenhouse gas emissions
B. international leaders should be united to work on climate change
C. greenhouse emissions are beginning to fall to avoid global warming
D. there has been little progress since the Kyoto Protocol was passed
2. This year's talks will be the most important international environmental discussions in over a decade
    because _____.
A. no such summit will be held again before the end of 2012
B. people in the world have been faced with a global vacuum
C. the solution in the Kyoto Protocol isn't practical and it isn't in effect now
D. a new document needs to be prepared before the Kyoto Protocol ends
3. The underlined word "holdout" in paragraph 4 probably means _____. 
A. one supporting to do something
B. one saying something may happen
C. one keeping on doing something
D. one keeping refusing to do something
4. Which is the correct order,according to the events in the passage?
    a. The Kyoto Protocol was passed.
    b. The Kyoto Protoco1 will come to an end.
    c. The first summit was held and the UNFCCC was agreed on.
    d. The UN's climate change conference will be held on the island of Bali.
    e. 150 top global corporations approved a request calling for cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.
A. c-a-e-d-b
B. e-d-c-b-a
C. c-a-b-d-e
D. a-c-d-e-b
5. What we can infer from the passage is that _____.
A. the ex-prime minister of Australia was against the Kyoto Protocol
B. leaders will soon unite in acting and no time will be wasted in talking
C. Ban Ki Moon expects the world's policymakers to act like scientists
D. international leaders will speak clearly with one voice at the Bali summit
