  As a parent you might never guess all the ways a good imagination benefits your child.It helps a preschooler:

  Develop social skills

  As children play pretend, they explore relationships between family members, friends and co-workers and learn more about how people interact.Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients.Playing house, they learn more about how parents feel about their children.Imaginative play helps develop empathy for others.If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet, they are better able to help those in need.They become more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate.

  Build self-confidence

  Young children have very little control over their lives.Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child.It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.

  Boost intellectual growth

  Using the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought.Children who can see a king's castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically.This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on.

  Practice language skills

  Kids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking.This helps boost their vocabulary, improve sentence structure and enhance communication skills.

  Work out fears

  Playing pretend can help children work out their fears and worries.When children role-play about the big, bad monster under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesn't seem quite so big or so bad.Imaginative play also helps kids vent confusing feelings they might have, such as anger toward a parent or rivalry(竞争)with a new sibling(兄弟姐妹).

  To encourage your youngster's imagination, read to him every day.Books offer children the opportunity to visit other worlds and create new ones of their own.

  For generations children have enjoyed reading the story of Peter Pan because Peter takes them on fascinating adventures.Reader's Digest Young Families offers a beautiful vintage Disney edition of Peter Pan, which is an iParenting Media Award winner.Click here to find out how you can get this classic story along with 2 free books-Bambi and Pinocchio.

  Here are some tips we've put together to help you learn English well.

  Ⅰ.SPEAK! SPEAK! SPEAK! Practice speaking as often as you can---even speaking to yourself is good practice.Try recording yourself whenever you can.Compare your pronunciation with the master version(原版).See how you can do better and have another go.If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.

  Ⅱ.WHY NOT LEARN WITH SOMEONE ELSE? It helps you a lot if you can learn with someone else.If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working.

  Ⅲ.DON'T GET STUCK BY A WORD YOU DON'T KNOW.Practice improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地), even if you don't know the exact words or phrases.Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time.Use facial expressions, hand movements, and anything to get your meaning across.

  Ⅳ.LANGUAGE LEARNING IS ALSO ABOUT INTUITION(直觉).Guesswork is an important way to learn a new language.When listening to recorded material, you aren't expected to understand everything the first time around.If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time.

  Ⅴ.BUILD YOUR VOCAVULARY.A wide vocabulary is the key to understand language learning but don't try to learn too much at once.It's best to study frequently for short periods of time.Take at most six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them every day.Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later.

  Ⅵ.AND ABOVE ALL, HAVE FUN!

(1)

The purpose of recording themselves when practicing speaking is _________.

[  ]

A.

to improve their speaking

B.

to record their own progress

C.

to encourage others to follow

D.

to compare themselves with others

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

  The interview had been going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well.Then, suddenly, the interviewer asks an unexpected question, "Which is more important, law or love? "

  Job applicants in the west increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.

  Employers want people skilled, enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response, employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant's true personality.

  The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called Kiersey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems, rather than what they know.This is often called aptitude(能力)testing.

  According to Mark Baldwin of Alliance many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.

  This is sometimes called the prisoner's dilemma(窘境).Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don't understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test, the correct answer is always the honest answer.

(1)

The writer wrote the passage to ________.

[  ]

A.

give you a piece of advice on a job interview.

B.

tell you how to meet a job interviewer

C.

describe the aptitude test.

D.

advice you how to find a job

(2)

Why do the interviewers ask such questions?

[  ]

A.

they want to discover what the interviewees know.

B.

they are curious about the answers.

C.

they try to discover the ability of the interviewees' solving problems.

D.

they just ask questions without thinking much.

(3)

According to the writer, in an aptitude testing, Chinese job applicants should ________.

[  ]

A.

not tell the truth

B.

learn to tell what they really think

C.

be more enthusiastic

D.

try to find out what the examiner really want to know

(4)

From the passage we know that ________.

job applicants are always asked such questions

more Chinese applicants fail to find a job
