  A common concern we often hear with regard to single children is whether one child necessarily means a lonely child.Many single-child parents feel a dilemma associated with their decision to have only one child.There are no other children in the family for the child to associate with, and this may lead to the child feeling lonely at times, especially during vacations.

  Another common argument against having just one child is that an only child may be more spoiled than one with brothers or sisters.Many people believe that a single will not have learned to negotiate with others, and respect the give-and-take involved in many relationships.Some think this may leave the child less able to interact well with people his or her own age than one who has been raised with brothers or sisters.

  However, for some single-child parents, particularly those with busy careers, the pressures of giving time and energy to a second child can seem too great, resulting in them electing to have no more children.For other parents, the financial burden of having a second child may be the prime consideration.Still others believe that, ________, the parents can give, and the child can receive, more quality time and attention.This often leads to increased self-respect which, combined with increased independence, can lead to the child being more confident.

  One thing Britain is famous for is pubs, and no trip to the UK would be complete without a visit to one of the thousands of pubs across the country.

  Pubs play an important part in the social structure of the country.They are places where all ages and social classes mix to talk, do business, or just spend a couple of quiet hours before heading home in the evening.

  There are many different types of beer available in pubs.Traditional British beer is called bitter, or ale, and is usually served at room temperature.As a result, the British are famous for their“warm beer”! If you prefer a cold beer, ask for lager.This beer is a light yellow in colour whereas bitter is usually a darker brown.All beers are served as pints(500 ml)or halves(250 ml).To order, you need to ask for a pint or half, and then name the beer.So, you could say “________.”

  Wine, red or white, is normally available in all pubs, as are spirits such as whisky, gin or vodka.

  It is not, however, necessary to drink alcohol.Non-alcoholic drinks are called soft drinks.You can have juice, lemonade or cola, among others.

  If you visit a pub in a group, it is important to pay for your “round”.This means that you buy a drink for everyone in your group.Not buying your round is a big social mistake! Remember that you need to order and pay for your drinks at the bar.

  So, follow these tips if you want to get the most out of visiting a pub, and, “cheers!”

  My father was a keen baseball fan.Whenever he could, Dad took me out to the park and pitched balls for me to hit.

  One day at the park, a woman pushing a young boy in a wheelchair stopped to watch us play.My dad was over to them in a flash to ask if the child could join our game.The woman explained that her son had polio(小儿麻痹症)and wouldn't be able to get out of the chair.That didn't stop my dad.He placed the bat in the youngster's hand, pushed him out to home plate and assisted him in holding the bat.Then he yelled out to me, "Anne, pitch one in to us."

  I saw the delight in the boy's eyes, so I aimed at the bat and let the ball fly.The ball made contact with the bat(球拍)with an assist from my dad and the child screamed with joy.As I turned, I heard my dad singing Take Me Out to the Ball Game

  An hour later we all left the field, very tired but very happy.Dad told the mother to bring the boy back next Saturday and we would play another game.

  "Jeff, protect your base," one coach yelled.I cheered the runner on when the ball was hit far into the outfield.The coach turned and smiled, "I never thought I’d ever be a coach playing on this field.You see, I had polio as a child and was restricted to a wheelchair.Thanks to a man's assistance, I was able to hit the ball and hear him singing the song Take Me Out to the Ball Game.I believe that experience gave me the desire to walk again.I hope that some day I'll look up in the stands and see that man and his daughter again.I sure would like to thank him."

  [1]Sending text messages from your mobile phone while driving is more dangerous than driving after drinking, which is found by the Transport Research Laboratory(TRL).

  [2]The reaction time of people who sent text messages as they drove slowed by 35%, while the reaction time of those who had drunk alcohol slowed by 12%.“This research shows how dangerous it is to text while driving,” researcher Nick Reed said in a statement.He said drivers who texted were distracted by trying to read small texts on the phone and by thinking about how to write their messages.And using the phone requires them to put their hands off the wheel.The combination of factors caused the slowness of reaction and the impairment(减弱)of vehicle control.

  [3]One conclusion researchers made about why texting while driving is so dangerous is the length of time it takes to write a message.The TRL said that writing a text message behind the wheel took 63 seconds, in which a car travels nearly a mile within town centre speed limits and over a mile within motorway speed limits.

  [4]Nearly half of the 18-to 24-year-olds admitted texting as they drove, another survey discovered.

  [5]The TRL study selected 17 people from the 18-to 24-year-old age group to take part in a simulated(模拟的)road test, in which they were ________ on a variety of roads.“The participants in this study were almost unanimous(一致同意的)in their view that texting while driving was the most dangerous action on the road,” RAC Director Stephen Glaister said.

  [6]“We need to ensure that drivers who love texting understand that texting is one of the most dangerous things that can be done while in charge of a car,” Glaister said in a statement.

1.What’s the main idea of the passage?(no more than 10 words)

2.Give two factors which caused the slowness of reaction of a driver while texting.(no more than 20 words)

①________.

②________.

3.Complete the following statement with proper words.(no more than 4 words)

The researchers inferred it’s the time a driver spends reading and writing a message that ________.
