    It is good to get in touch with your inner child from time to time，and obviously some people are willing to pay big money for the chance to do so in a proper environment．A Brooklyn-based adult preschool is charging customers between $333 and $999 for the chance to act like a kid again．

    At Preschool Mastermind in New York adults get to participate in show—and—tell，arts—and—crafts such as finger paint，games like musical chairs and even take naps．The month-long course also has class picture day where the adults are expected to have a field trip and a parent day．

    30-year-old Michelle Joni Lapidos，the brain behind the adult preschool，studied childhood education and has always wanted to be a preschool teacher．She’s always on the lookout for new ways to get people in touch with the freedom of childhood．A friend encouraged her to start the mastermind course instead．

    According to Candice，her blogger friend，Preschool Mastermind gives adults a chance to relearn and master the things that they failed to understand as children．“I realized all the significances of what we learn in preschool，”said founder Michelle Joni，“People come here and get in touch with their inner child．It’s magical．We are bringing ourselves back to another place，another time with ourselves when we are more believing in ourselves，more confident and ready to take on the world.”

    “One person’s here because they want to learn not to be so serious．”Michelle said．“Another's here to learn to be more confident.” She explained that most of the classes were planned．However，Joni added that while the planned activities were fun，it was often the spontaneous(自发的)moments that attracted students．“It’s the things you don’t plan for，the sharing between friends and learning from each other.’’

    1.What is the purpose of Preschool Mastermind?

    A. To give adults a chance to return to childhood．

    “Heaven is where the police are English,the cooks are French the mechanics are German,the lovers are Italian and everything is organized by the Swiss.Hell is where the.police are German,the cooks are English,the mechanics are French,the lovers are Swiss,and everything is organized by the Italians.”

    Obviously the national stereotypes（模式化的思想）in this,old joke are generalizations,but such stereotypes are often said to "exist for a reason".Is there actually a sliver of truth in them?Not likely,an international research team now says.

    "National and cultural stereotypes do play an important role in how people see themselves and others,and being aware that these are not dependable is a useful thing,"said study author Robert McCrae of the National Institute on Aging."These are in fact unfounded stereotypes.They don't come from looking around you,"McCrae said.

    If national stereotypes aren't rooted in real experiences,then where do they come from?One possibility is that they reflect national values,which may become known from historical events.For example,many historians have argued that the spirit of American individualism has its origins in the experiences of the pioneers on the Old West.

    Social scientists such as psychologist Richard Robins have given several other possible explanations for stereotypes and why they may be incorrect.Robins notes that some stereotypes may have been correct at one point in history and then remained unchanged while the culture changed.

    We may be "hard-wired",to some degree,to keep incorrect stereotypes,since we are less likely to notice and remember information that is different from our stereotypes.Generally,according to Robins,when we meet people who are different from our stereotypes,we see them as unique individuals rather than typical national or cultural groups.

    1.What is the function of the first paragraph?

    A. To introduce the topic of national stereotypes.

    B. To make a comparison between the characters of different countries.

    C. To exemplify the argument against stereotyping.

    D. To analyze the strengths and weaknesses of people in different countries.

    2.Which of the following best describes McCrae's attitude towards national stereotypes?

    A. Supportive. B. Indifferent.

    C. Critical. D. Uncertain.

    3.According to social scientists,why aren’t national stereotypes always correct?

    A. Because they are formed by individual historians.

    B. Because people tend to have false idea about other cultures.

    C. Because generalizations are made through personal experience.

    D. Because what was true in the past may not be true at present.

    4.What does the underlined word "hard-wired" in the last paragraph probably mean?

    A. Forgetful. B. Fixed.

    C. Anxious. D. Helpless.

    How to Improve Vocabulary Fast

    Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. We should learn some ways to expand it.

    Read every day. 1. Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.

    2.If you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one.

    Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.

    Elaborate(阐释)on the meaning of the word. Use imagery and personal relevance. If you have just learned that the word “stubborn” , think about the neighbor who will not lend you his car. 3.

    Use your new word in speech and in writing. E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow.  4.But the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.

    Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is 5..The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.

    A. Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used.

    B. Your vocabulary contains the words you understand.

    C. The vocabulary can be increased.

    D. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as “stubborn in his refusal”.

    E. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem strange.

    F. Find a new word every day.

    G. The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow.
