Before
I introduce our cultural programs, I want to tell you one thing first about
2008. You're going to have a great time in
Many people are fascinated by China’s Sport legends（传奇）in
history. For example, back to Song Dynasty, which was the 11th century, people in our country
started to play a game called Cuju, which is regarded
as the origin of ancient football. The game was so popular that women were also
participating. So now, you probably will understand why our women football team
does so well today.

I am afraid I can not

My son. The phrase felt awkward and strange the first time I said it, and I had to practice it a thousand times. I started saying the words to myself the day the ultrasound （超生波）told me we were having a baby.
Finally, my son was born.
The nurse came out of the delivery room, holding a tiny, howling human being wrapped in a white sheet, his small hands and delicate fingers shaking nervously. "Baby Sanchez?" she asked, looking at the room full of expectant fathers.
I stood up, holding my breath. She showed me my baby. "My son," I whispered. The little guy screamed, "waaaaaaah"
But in my heart I heard him cry out, "Daaaaaaad!" I don't care if everyone in the room will swear they didn't hear my baby say that. I called him "My son," and he called me "Dad," and that's that.
People ask me, "What did you feel at that moment?" I can't even begin to answer. I'm a writer yet I grope for the right words. Joyful isn't powerful enough. Bliss isn't sweet enough. Peaceful isn't calm enough. Happy isn't tense enough.
After my son was whisked away to the nursery, I sat down and shut my eyes. But tears escaped them anyway. Then out of the blue, my 80-year-old father entered, and we embraced. "Dad," I whispered.
"My son," my heart heard him saying.
Suddenly the past 33 years folded into the present and I was now the baby bundled in white, with my father standing over me.
"My son," I imagined him saying.
"Daaaaaaad!" I cried my little lungs out.
At that point, I knew I was going to be a great father. The old man in front of me seemed to agree. He smiled and we walked out of the room in search of the tiny human being that would change our lives for ever.
59. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. His son called him "Dad" when the writer called him "My son"
B. All the people didn't hear the baby say except the writer.
C. Sanchez is the writer's family name.
D. The baby was whisked away because the nurse found there was a mistake.
60. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. When My Son Was Born. B. Father and Son
C. Two Words from the Heart D. My Son
61. Why was the writer sure he was going to be a great father?
A. Because his son is so gifted.
B. Because he had much experience in bringing up children.
C. Because his father promised to help him.
D. Because his father had already set him a good example.

（D）
In bringing up children．every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition(学
会)of each new skill----the first spoken words，the first independent steps，or the beginning of reading and writing．It’s common that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate．but this can set up dangerous“feelings of failure and states of worry in the child．This might happen at any stage．A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early，and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads．On the other hand，though，if a child is left alone too much，or without any learning opportunities，he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself．
Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children．Some may be especially strict in money matters；others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality(准时)for meals．In general ,the controls imposed(强加的)represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child’s own happiness．
As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child，consistency is very important in parental teaching．To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality．Also，parents should realize that“example is better than precept．If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教)，their children may grow confused，and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves，and realize they have been to some extent fooled．”
A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment．
66．Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills_______.
A．should be avoided
B．is universal among parents
C．sets up dangerous states of worry in the child
D．will make him lose interest in learning new things
67．When children are learning new skills，parents should_______.
A．encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read
B．not expect too much of them
C．achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own
D．create as many learning opportunities as possible
68．The second paragraph mainly tells us that_________．
A．parents should be strict with their children
B．parental controls satisfy only the needs of the parents and the values of the community
C．parental restrictions vary，and are not always enforced for the benefit of the
children alone
D．parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation
69．The underline word “precept”(in Paragragh 3) probably means“_______”.
A．idea B．punishment C．behavior D．instruction
70．In moral matters, parents should ______.
A．observe the rules themselves
B．be aware of the marked difference between adults and children
C．forbid things which have no foundation in morality
D．satisfy their children’s needs

Dear friends,
Here are my points .We students of today have to pay much attention to our lessons and know little of society though it’s not our fault .A holiday is the best time to make up for that. Taking a part―time job is a good form of social practice. What is learned in books can’t have the same deep effect on us as what is learned through experience. In social practice, we can surely make progress in both knowledge and ability. Besides, taking a part-time job, we may get paid more or less to help our family. Thus ,I will say a senior school student should take a part-time job in holidays, if possible ,of course.
