    Clothes can make phone calls, play music, dial your pal’s number, keep you warm during cold weather and operate your computer?
    This is not a fantasy. A British company, called Electrotextiles, has created a wide range of clothes — clothes that have minds of their own! Scientists, working for the company, have invented a kind of fabric that can be blended(混合) with flexible electronic materials to create intelligent clothing. The result are electronic garments.
    If you think the wearer has to be wired to different devices, think again. These designer clothes are wire-free, soft to touch and washable!! Like any electronic device, these high-tech clothes have to be powered. Currently, a tiny nine-volt battery serves the purpose. But the researchers hope that in the near future the clothes will generate electricity by using body heat. These clothes are 100 percent shock proof, they say.
    The Electrotextiles team has also created the world’s first cloth keyboard. This keyboard can be sewn into your trousers or skirt. To use this device, you will have to sit down and tap on your lap! These ‘lap- tap’ gadgets(器具) are all set to take over laptop computers!
    Another useful garment is the shirt-cum-mobile phone. This handy invention enables drivers to chat comfortably with others at the wheel! Other popular electronic wear include the denim(牛仔布) jacket with flexible earphones sewn into the hood(风帽) and the electronic ski jacket with a built-in heater. The ski jacket is also programmed to send signals to a satellite. This technology is known as global positioning system and can be used to track lost skiers and wandering kids.
    Having completed the cloth keyboard, scientists have already started to work on a new project—a necktie that can be used as a computer mouse. What is the next? Do you have any idea?
    小题1:. The electronic garments are similar to other electronic devices in that ______.
    A．they feel smooth and soft
    B．they use electricity as power
    C．they can be washed in water
    D．they are made from flexible materials
    小题2:. How will researchers improve these high-tech clothes?
    A．Body heat will be used as power.
    B．The wearer will not get shocked.

    The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills that they need to be confident, happy and clever.
    Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.
    Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and lots of self-confidence.
    Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.
    小题1:          Generally speaking, children’s skills __________.
    A．come from their parents
    B．have nothing to do with their education
    C．may be different from child to child
    D．have something to do with their marks in the exams
    小题2:          The writer of this passage does not seem to be satisfied with_______.
    A．the parents’ ideas of educating their children
    B．the education system
    C．children’s skills
    D．children’s hobbies
    小题3:          Doing some cooking at home helps children_________.
    A．learn how to serve their parents
    B．learn how to become strong and fat
    C．benefit from it and prepare themselves for the future
    D．make their parents believe that they are clever
    小题4:          According to the passage, which of the following is True?
    A．Chinese are not very generous on educating their children.
    B．All Parents know how to teach their children well.
    C．Teaching a child to cook can improve the skills that he will need in the future.
    D．Poor parents cannot buy a computer for their children.
    小题5:           Cooking_____
    A demands patience  B demands time.

    Here are six steps to better studying.
    Pay attention in class
    Do you have trouble paying attention in class? Are you sitting next to a loud person? Tell your teacher or parents about any problem that is preventing you from paying attention.
    Take good notes
    Write down facts that your teacher mentions or writes on the board. Try to use good handwriting so you can read your notes later. It’s a good idea to keep your notes organized by subject.
    Plan ahead for tests and projects
    Waiting until Thursday night to study for Friday’s test will make it hard to do your best. One of the best ways to make sure that doesn’t happen is to plan ahead. Write down your test dates. You can then plan how much to do after school each day, and how much time to spend on each topic.
    Break it up
    When there’s a lot to study, it can help to break things into several parts. Let’s say you have a spelling test on 20 words. Instead of thinking about all of the words at once, try breaking them down into five-word groups and work on one or two different groups each night.
    Ask for help
    You can’t study effectively if you don’t understand the material. Be sure to ask your teacher for help. If you’re at home when the confusion occurs, your morn or dad might be able to help.
    Sleep tight
    So the test is tomorrow and you’ve followed your study plan—but suddenly you can’t remember anything! Don’t panic. Your brain needs time to digest all the information you’ve given it. Try to get a good night’s sleep and you’ll be surprised by what comes back to you in the morning.
    小题1:We know from the passage that a loud person is       .
    A．a student who always answers questions loudly in class
    B．someone who likes to talk with others in a loud voice
    C．a student who likes speaking with others in class
    D．a person who makes a lot of noise in public places
    小题2:According to the author, which of the following is an effective studying method?
    A．Don’t try to review everything you have learned in one go.
    B．Try to review what you’ve learned in one go.
    C．To read all your notes the night before the test.
    D．Try to remember everything on the first try.
    小题3:If you don’t understand what you have learnt, you can       .
    A．read your notes over and over again
    B．turn to people around you for help
    C．put aside the material for later review
    D．ask your teacher to explain it the next day
    小题4:By saying “Sleep tight”, what does the author mean?
    A．Sleep again after waking up.
    B．Sleep holding your breath deep.
    C．Get a good night’s sleep.
    D．Go to sleep early every night.

    Let children learn to judge their own work. A child who learns to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If corrected too much., he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the differences between the language he uses and the language those around him. Little by little, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things without being taught-to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle-compare their performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes.
    But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them himself. We do it all for his act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says , what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.
    If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine(daily) work? Our job should be to help the children when they tell us that they can’t find the way to get to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.
    小题1: According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by ______.
    A．listening to the advice of grown-ups.
    B．asking adults many questions.
    C．making mistakes and having them corrected.
    D．doing as other people do by themselves.
    小题2: Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do?
    A．Give children correct answers.
    B．Allow children to make mistakes.
    C．Tell the children what is wrong with their work as often as possible.
    D．Let children judge their own work.
    小题3: According to the writer, teachers in school should ______.
    A．encourage children to learn from each other.
    B．point out children’s mistakes whenever they are found.
    C．correct children’s mistakes as much as possible.
    D．teach children more knowledge from book.
    小题4:The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are ______.
    A．different from learning other skills.B．the same as learning other skills.
    C．more important than other skills.D．unnecessary skills.
    小题5:. Which of the following may serve as the best title of this passage?
    A．Let Us Teachers Stop Working.B．Let Children Alone.
    C．Let Children Correct Their Exercises.D．Let Children Learn by Themselves.

    About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene. Although our “act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.
    We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in “snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.
    The next scene was a complete contrast (对比). The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures in front taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen (幕). An actor and actress stood of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees(棕榈树), sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!
    Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "stars"!
    小题1:Who is the author?
    A．A cameraman.
    B．A film director.
    C．A crowd-scene actor.
    D．A workman for scene setting.
    小题2:What made the author feel cold?
    A．The heavy snowfall.
    B．The man-made scene.
    C．The low temperature.
    D．The film being shown.
    小题3: What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned in the last paragraph?
    A．A new scene would be filmed.
    B．More stars would act in the film.
    C．The author would leave the studio.
    D．The next scene would be prepared.

    Sitting on a chair all day in school can make anyone want to move around. So, more and more teachers are letting students have a ball. By sitting on exercise balls instead of chairs , teachers find students’ posture(姿势) and attention improve.
    Dottie Pownall, a fifth-grade teacher in West Virginia, USA, has been using balls as chairs since December 2008. “The students love them”, she says. Pownall took a survey(调查) of her students. She found that 80% of the students thought sitting on the balls helped them pay more attention to what they were learning.
    The teacher, Pisa Witt, felt so strongly about the use of balls as chairs, she started Witt Fitt. This company encourages the use of the balls. And the company educates not only teachers but also students on how to use them. “Our products are used in 24 states, three provinces in Canada, Puerto Rico (波多黎各) and Japan,” says Witt, “ Research shows that sitting on the balls makes them sit up straighter（直的）. You can slouch(低头垂肩地坐)on a ball,” says Witt, “but it feels bad.” Because the students are moving, their blood (血液) increases. That carries more oxygen( 氧气) to the brain , so the kids have more energy and can pay attention longer.
    “Besides, they’re fun.” says Pownall.
    小题1:What will happen if a student sits on a chair all day in school? The student will_________.
    A．pay more attention to his lessonsB．be fun
    C．like to move aroundD．sit up straighter
    小题2:How long has Dottie Pownall used the balls?
    A．About four years.B．Only one year.
    C．In 2008.D．Since he was a fifth-grade teacher.
    小题3:In how many countries are the balls used as the students’ chairs?
    A．Four.B．Three.C．Two.D．One.
    小题4:Teachers choose balls instead of chairs because sitting on balls helps the kids _________.
    A．improve the students’ posture and attention
    B．slouch on the chairs
    C．have fun
    D．Both A and C are correct answers
    小题5:Which is better for kids to study in class, sitting on a chair or sitting on a ball?
    A．Sitting on a chair.B．Sitting on a ball.
    C．They are the same.D．We don’t know.

    Dear editor,
    I am writing to ask what has happened to our young people.They are not as polite or hard-working as my generation（一代人I will give you two examples.
    Last Friday, I got on the underground at 9:15 a.m. It was very crowded so there was no free seat.There were some boys sitting on the seats near me.I didn't know why they were not at school.They were talking and laughing loudly. It was difficult for me to read my newspaper with all the noise.At the next stop, a pregnant（怀孕的）woman and her daughter got on with lots of shopping bags.I expected the boys to let them sit down.They saw the woman but they did nothing.I had to ask them to give the woman and her daughter seats.   They did so but gave me a rude look.
