Every child should have a solid science education whether they want to be the next Albert Einstein or Michael Jordan.Science is all around us，it is everywhere，reaching everything that we do.The “we” in that last statement includes children.Children that understand how science plays a role in our everyday lives have a wonderful foundation (基础) for success in life.
Children can learn science at any age really.The earlier they start the better.The best way for kids to learn is through play and repetition.There are wonderful science toys for preschool science activities.With play being the best way kids learn，it only makes sense then to introduce toys to them that encourage understanding science.Children love to use their imagination to have fun and to help them understand the world around them.So play is a wonderful time to be introducing science to them.Think of the games that we used to play：Don’t Spill the Beans，Don’t Break the Ice，the Telephone Game，Lincoln Logs，each of these games has science behind it.
Children are by nature curious (好奇的) as they feel out the world，trying to make sense of what is around them.Science feeds that curiosity that they have.It is a hunger that needs to be encouraged and satisfied.Finding these toys is not as hard as one would think.To make sure that you get good quality toys，visit science toy shops online.These are the best places to find unique (独特的) science toys such as 3D space projectors，or Hydro Greenhouses.
Help your children appreciate the world around them by understanding the world around them.This way，they understand how we are all connected together.Children will not only question the world，but be able to come up with answers to those questions on their own.Science is life.

English teenagers are to receive compulsory (必修的) cooking lessons in schools. The idea is to encourage healthy eating to fight the country’s increasing obesity (肥胖 )rate. It’s feared that basic cooking and food preparation skills are being lost as parents turn to pre-prepared convenience foods.
Cooking was once regarded as an important part of education in England---even if it was mainly aimed at girls. In recent decades cooking has progressively become a minor activity in schools. In many cases the schools themselves have given up cooking meals in kitchens in the schools. But the rising level of obesity has led to a rethink about the food that children are given and the skills they should be taught.
“What I want is to teach young people how to do basic, simple recipes like a tomato sauce, a bolognaise, a simple curry, a stir-fry---which they can use now at home and then in their later life”, said Ed Balls, the minister responsible for schools.
The new lessons are due to start in September, but some schools without kitchens will be given longer to adapt. There is also likely to be a shortage of teachers with the right skills, since the trend has been to teach food technology rather than practical cooking. Also the compulsory lessons for hands on cooking will only be one hour a week for one term. But the well-known cookery writer, Pru Leith, believes it will be worth it.
“If we’d done this thirty years ago we might not have the crisis we’ve got now about obesity and lack of knowledge about food and so on. Every child should know how to cook, not just so that they’ll be healthy, but because it’s a life skill which is a real pleasure”.
The renewed interest in cooking is primarily a response to the level of obesity in Britain which is among the highest in Europe, and according to government figures half of all Britons will be obese in 25 years if current trends are not stopped.
【小题1】The passage mainly talks about .
| A．the reason for obesity | B．the lost cooking skills |
| C．the healthy eating | D．the compulsory cooking classes |

| A．They will be healthy and enjoy the pleasure of such a life skill as well. |
| B．They will be able to do some basic, simple recipes like a tomato sauce. |
| C．They will be able to make food experiments with the knowledge and skills. |
| D．They will be able to control the level of obesity in the whole country. |
| A．difficult | B．necessary | C．funny | D．timely |

In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition she won last year.
As a writer I know about winning contests, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.
A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”
I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.
Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting (借用) my daughter’s experience.
While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.
1.What did the author say about her own writing experience?
A．She was constantly under pressure of writing more.
B．Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers.
C．Her way to success was full of pains and frustrations.
D．She did not quite live up to her reputation as a writer.
2. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?
A．She wanted to share her stories with readers.
B．She had won a prize in the previous contest.
C．She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.
D．She believed she possessed real talent for writing.
3. The author took great pains to refine her daughter’s stories because ________.
A．she wanted to help Rebecca realize her dream of becoming a writer
B．she believed she had the knowledge and experience to offer guidance
C．she did not want to disappoint Rebecca who needed her help so much
D．she was afraid Rebecca’s imagination might run wild while writing
4. What’s the author’s advice for parents?
A．Children should be given every chance to voice their opinions.
B．Children should be allowed freedom to grow through experience.
C．Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.
D．A writing career, though attractive, is not for every child to pursue.

For children with cancer(癌),the facts of life include the facts of death.
There is always the fear that they might not live to grow up．Yet they realize that fighting cancer is the only way of beating it. So they fight．And sometimes, they win.It may take years．It certainly takes support from parents and doctors.
Unfortunately, many parents can't deal with their child's illness．And doctors, no matter how caring, have other patients to care for. At times like these, the Children's Cancer Foundation can help. We are a group of Hong Kong doctors, nurses, psychologists, parents of children with cancer and concerned persons (有关人士).All of us are volunteers (offer one's help without payment).We're with the children every day, listening to, and encouraging them.
We also advise parents, educate the public and send doctors overseas to study new cancer treatments. Our funding (providing money) has brought better equipment to the wards (large rooms of a hospital), and paid for special flats where the children can recover.
We want to do even more．But to do it, we need your help. It will be money well spent．One who looks at our past achievements should prove that．
To the children, your contribution （贡献）will also be a show of support.A sign that you're behind them is just the sort of news that a six-year-old chlid with cancer needs to hear.
1.This passage is likely_________.
A. a story B. an advertisement
