Life today can be very stressful. Children need a break from the pressures(压力) and demands of their busy schedule (日程安排). But instead of letting children relax in front of the TV, parents should encourage them to do something else. A hobby is the perfect answer.

There are all kinds of different hobbies. One example is chess. It is a very enjoyable game and it helps children develop their thinking skills too. There are many other “thinking” games, such as word games.

Another good hobby for children is collecting something. A child can collect almost anything: key rings, stamps, comics, postcards, old coins, etc. Many of these collections can be both educational and fun. They teach children a lot and broaden their minds greatly.

Some hobbies can offer several benefits. For example, gardening is a useful hobby because it involves physical activity and it also teaches children about nature.

A hobby can be a very effective learning tool. Children may become experts in something if they really love their hobbies. Children will also learn about organizing themselves and making plans. Hobbies will also teach children a lot about responsibility.

There are some possible problems with hobbies, though. Children sometimes focus (关注) too much on their hobbies and forget about other things. Parents should remind their children that a hobby can be fun, but it should not get in the way of school work or other important things. As long as children understand this, their hobbies will be an enjoyable and valuable part of their lives. 

71.Watching TV is a good hobby for children.

72.Parents should encourage children to get a hobby.

73.Collecting things is a good hobby because children can make money from it.

74.If a child has a hobby, he is certainly an expert.

75.Children can learn a lot of things from hobbies.

76.Children who pay too much attention to a hobby might forget about their school work.

77.From the passage we know that keeping a hobby properly is good for children.

    It is said that one man’s misfortune(不幸) is another man’s passport to glory(荣誉). The words were proved during last year’s Davis Cup tennis final, when Spanish(西班牙的) teenage star Radael Nadal surprisingly beat world No.2 Andy Roddick from the US.

    The 18-year-old’s achievement helped the Spanish team finally win the Davis Cup, on December 5. He also became the youngest winner of the cup in history. “I did play brilliantly today. But I could have played better.”

    Radael is 1.85 meters tall, left-handed, though he still has a boyish face, the young star shows an energetic power and strong will to succeed on court. His fans love him for his long hair and good looks but especially for his powerful kicks on court after winning his big points. After beating Roddick, he fell on his back and rolled in the dusty red clay in the Seville’s Olympic Stadium. “I have to learn to control my feelings,” he said. “I celebrate too much.”

    Radael began to play tennis at very young age. Perhaps his first toy was a tennis ball. After all his uncle used to be a professional player and now his coach (教练). “I don’t remember when I first started playing. I was three or four and I picked up the ball in my uncle’s club, ” he said. He won his first local championship at eight, and at the age of 11 he appeared in a Spanish schoolbook as a little star. But success at such a young age didn’t go to his head and he continued to train every day. His other uncle Miguel Angel Nadal, provided inspiration with his success in playing professional football for Barcelona and Spain. 

    The Spanish press(报刊) has described Radael as a star or a pearl, but he doesn’t think of himself as a teenage star. “I am only concentrating (集中精力于) on my tennis. That’s the only thing I am interested in,” he said. Besides tennis, he likes English. Although he speaks Spanish during most interviews with the media, he always tries to improve his English! All of the attention has not changed Radael’s life. He usually spends hours and hours on the court training. “My only aim is to continue to improve. I am still very young and there are lots of things I can do better,” he said.

  Anne White studied at Colorado University. She first had a problem taking tests when she began college. “I was always well prepared for my tests. Sometimes I studied for weeks   85   a test. Yet I would go in to take the test, only to find I could not answer the questions correctly. I was unable to think properly because of nervousness and fear. I couldn’t think of the answer. My low grades on the test did not show what I know to the teacher.” Another student had the same   86  . He said, “My first chemistry test was very difficult. Then, on the second test, I sat down to take it, and I was so nervous that I was  87  . My hands were moving up and down so quickly that it was hard to hold my pencil. I knew the material and I knew the answers. Yet I couldn’t write them down.”

  These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety (焦虑). Because a student worries and is uneasy about a test, his or her mind does not work as well as it  88   does. The student cannot write or think clearly because of nervousness. Although poor grades are often a result of poor study habits, sometimes test anxiety causes the low grades. At present, test anxiety has been known as a real problem, not just an excuse or false explanation of lazy students.

  Experts are trying to help those students by teaching them how to manage test anxiety. At some university, students take tests to measure (测量) their anxiety. If the tests show their anxiety is 89   , the students can take short courses to help them deal with their nervousness. These courses teach students how to  90   their bodies. Students are trained to become calm. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds work  91  . Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.

  85.A) after          B) during            C) before            D) in

86.A) experiences     B) tests            C) things           D) sayings

87.A) standing       B) running          C) shaking           D) striking

88.A) usually        B) always           C) often            D) sometimes

89.A) low         B) enough           C) average          D) high

Hi Mary,
    Thank you for writing to me and I will try to give you some ideas about improving your written English. The bad news, of course, is that there is no e  92  way to do this. It takes work.
    Improving your English, like getting better at anything else, means lots of practice. I think you already know enough words and grammar in English to make sentences and to understand English, and the problem you have is as the problem all Chinese students have when they learn English. You go to English class a couple of times a week and the r  93  of the time you speak Chinese. If you come to Canada, your English would improve very q  94  because you would use it all day, every day. It’s just practice.
    To improve your writing in English, you should do t  95  things. First, you should try to read English as much as possible. It doesn’t matter what you read, so pick something that interests you. Reading English will show you how English words are used together, how English speakers express themselves and so on, so you can learn a lot from that. Then you should practice writing. Ask your teacher if you can get extra assignments and write things like short stories. Your teacher can show you where you make mistakes and how to c  96  them. You can also write more letters to English speakers on the Internet (I will be happy to exchange letters with you if that will help). Don’t worry if you make mistakes b  97   that is how you learn.
    You say you can not obey your plans. In English we say, “Plan the work, work the plan.” You need a plan and then you need to follow your plan to improve.
I hope these ideas are u  98  . I wish you luck, and if you want to write to me I will be happy to try to help you. We can talk about China, about Canada or anything else you like.  
Best wishes,
Brad Flankin
 

E.Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题):(14分)

  He almost didn’t see the old lady stand on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he stopped his car and got out, walked towards her.

Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe.

He said, “I am here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it is warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”

Well, all she had was a flat tire (爆胎), but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for the jerk, and changed the tire. But he had to get dirty, and his hands hurt.

As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She was grateful(感激的) for his help.

Bryan just smiled as he finished the work. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened if he had not stopped. Bryan never thought about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.

He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give the person the assistance he or she needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”

He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed home, disappearing into the twilight.

     He crawled under the car                         .

                                        .
