The implication(含义) of saying “You are the prettiest girl in class,” or talking about the goals she scored but not her overall effort, is that you love her only when she looks the best, scores the highest, achieves the most. And this carries over to the classroom.
Social psychologist Carol Dweck, PHD, tested the effects of over-praise on 400 fifth graders while she was at Columbia University. She found that kids praised for “trying hard” did better on tests and were more likely to take on difficult assignments than those praised for being “smart”.
“Praising attributes(品质) or abilities makes a false promise that success will come to you because you have that quality, and it devalues effort, so children are afraid to take on challenges,” says Dweck, now at Stanford University, “They figure they’d better quit while they’re ahead.”
1.
A. tired of being praised B. worthy of being praised
C. very proud of being praised D. extremely fond of being praised
2.
A. better-known B. better-organized
C. more persuasive D. more interesting
3.
A. praise for efforts should be more encouraged
B. praise for results works better than praise for efforts
C. praising a child’s achievements benefits his or her success in life
D. praising a child’s abilities encourages him or her to take on challenges

Whenever we see a button, we want to press it because we know that something will happen. This is true in most cases, for example, on a doorbell. But some buttons are actually fake(假的), like the “close” button on a lift.
Many people are in the habit of pressing the “close” button because they don’t have the patience to wait for the lift doors to shut. But lifts’ “close” buttons are a complete trick, at least in the US － the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press.
It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US, making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter. Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.
But to normal lift riders, the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists, fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control.
“A sense of control is very important. It reduces stress and increases well-being,” said Ellen J. Langer, a psychology professor at Harvard University. Experts also added that a lot of buttons that don’t do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose.
For example, pedestrian crosswalk buttons don’t live up to their names either. Pressing them used to help make the traffic signals change faster, but that was before computer controlled traffic signals were introduced.
But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little “white lies”, they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be worth the effort.
1.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To explore the functions of fake buttons.
B. To describe different fake buttons.
C. To analyze various habits of pushing buttons.
D. To explain the disadvantages of fake buttons.
2.What can we learn about the “close” buttons on a lift in America?
A. They work when people press them hard.
B. They were designed for a sense of control.
C. They never speed up the door-closing process.
D. They take the safety of the disabled into account.
3.What can we infer about pedestrian crosswalk buttons?
A. They can make people feel better.
B. They help computers work faster.
C. They can control the traffic signals.
D. They help pedestrians cross safely.
4.Which may be the best title for the passage?
A. Buttons in the USA. B. Buttons Always Lie
C. Buttons May not Work D. “Close” Buttons on Lifts

My name is Jake. I’m brown, and rather short, standing just a little past my master’s knees. My friend Andy once took me to a dog show. I’ve never seen so many different-looking dogs in my life! They all looked pretty and handsome, and their masters were very proud of them when they jumped and ran across so many barriers at that dog show. Andy promised that he’d let me join a dog show, too, if the organizers opened a division for my “breed”.
While I was watching that show, I remembered my friends at the pound（走失猫狗的待领处）， where I spent two long weeks. We were kept in cages, and although we were well-fed, every day during those two weeks, I hoped to have someone touch my head and play with me.
You could just imagine how glad I was when, one day, Andy came in with his dad and pointed in my direction. I stood up on my hind legs and did a little jig （一种快步舞）, and then I wagged my tail and tried to chase it. The father and his son kept laughing at what I was trying to do, and in a few minutes, I was riding on their car on the way to my new home. I was Mr. Archer’s gift for Andy’s eighth birthday. I heard him shout that I was the best gift ever!
My favorite amusement is hanging my tongue out of the car window and letting the wind blow on my face. I just love long drives! It is during these times that I think of all my friends whom I left behind at the dog pound. I hope that soon, little boys or girls would also pick them and give them new homes, so they would be able to enjoy walks in the park and trips to the beach, as I do now.
1.Why didn’t Jake join the dog show?
A. Because he wasn’t handsome enough.
B. Because his “breed” was not included.
C. Because Andy didn’t allow him to join in.
D. Because he couldn’t jump and run across barriers.
2.What can we learn about Jake when he was at the pound?
A. He couldn’t get enough food. B. He couldn’t enjoy full freedom.
C. He had to stand all the time. D. He was satisfied with his life.
3.Why did Mr. Archer come to the pound that day?
A. To donate some food. B. To volunteer at the pound
C. To find his son a gift. D. To spend his holiday
4.According to the last paragraph, what wish does Jake have?
A. Having more long drives with Andy.
B. Meeting his friends at the pound again.
C. More boys and girls coming to play with him.
D. His friends at the pound being adopted.
5.What did Jake feel after it got a new home?
A. happy B. terrible C. dissatisfactory D. blue

Most people who took vacations were happier than non-vacationers. So why not start planning your next trip right now? Here are the 4 places you can visit in 2017.
New Zealand
No doubt, many readers—particularly those who love outdoor recreation—will have dreamed of visiting beautiful New Zealand. Now may be the time to do it. The number of airline seats available to travelers going to New Zealand has roughly doubled in the past year, which means you can get relative deals on airfare to the country.
United Kingdom
It won’t be cheap to visit the U. K., but, it will be cheaper than it has been in years, experts say. The pound has fallen significantly against the dollar in recent months, and airfares are good deals now, too. One of the best ways to get deals is to book a hotel-and-airfare package.
The Gulf Coast of Florida
The western edge of the Sunshine State includes such cities as Clearwater, Tampa and St. Petersburg and is known for blue waters and sugar-sand beaches—and, more recently, for relaxing beach vacations on a budget. Seven new hotels opened in that area in 2016, offering extra value of consumers.
Iceland
This country has been on budget travelers’ radar for a number of years, but it’s still offering plenty of deals. Hotels in the country are reasonable. Three-star hotels in May coast about $130 per night and in January $180 per night. One thing not to miss in Iceland: seeing the Northern Lights, best done from October to March.
1.Which destination is especially recommended for tourists who prefer outdoor activity?
A. New Zealand. B. United Kingdom.
C. The Gulf Coast of Florida. D. Iceland.
2.In which month should you go to visit Iceland if you want to save money?
A. January. B. March. C. May. D. October.
3.What benefits can the four places offer tourists?
A. Nice food and goods.
B. Cheap airlines or admission fees.
C. Convenient service and transport.
D. Economical flights or accommodations.
