　　American students are usually active in class. They like to ask questions and enjoy discussions. A teacher's speaking may be nervous from time to time by questions. This does not make him angry because he is used to being asked in class, and also because questions show that students listening to him carefully and are using their brains. During a discussion, students often vie（竞争）with one another in showing their ideas, leaving very little time for the teacher to sum up what they have said.

(4) “To use one's brain”means to worry about something.

　　It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible for homework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.

　　You give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent(独立的).

　　My daughter Carla's fifth-grade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students receive less than a perfect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and declared firmly they could make up what they had missed. You can use the same technique when you evaluate(评价) your child's work at home. Don't always scold(责骂) and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he had done right, not about what he hasn't done. If your child completes a difficult task, reward(奖励) him with a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.

A man was walking along the street when he saw a woman carrying a large box. It was half in and half out of her car. So the man went up and said, “The box looks very heavy. Let me give you a hand.”

“That’s very kind of you,” the woman said, “I’m having a lot of trouble with it. Maybe it sticks (卡住) in the car door.”

“Together we’ll soon move it,” the man said. “I’ll get in and take the other end.” And he got in the car.

It’s a long-awaited day for China. The navy now has its first aircraft carrier(航空母舰), Liaoning.
It’s a unique experience to get to know the life in the carrier. The carrier is just like a small city on the sea. It has all the functions for daily life. There are 4 words to sum up its characters: big, small, much and high. The carrier Liaoning is such a huge one that the total length of the whole corridor（过道）could reach over 20 kilometers. But the living space for the sailors（水手）is quite small. That’s because the carrier is designed for researching purposes, rather than comfortable living. Over 1,000 sailors, both men and women, are living onboard. They are arranged among over 3,000 tiny rooms below the deck. For visitors, it’s so easy to get lost. So the first thing the new sailors have to learn is their way around. The number of female sailors is much less than that of the males, taking about 5 percent of the total. But they play a key role in carrying out some special missions.
Also, you will be surprised by the high level of education of today’s sailors. The captain said that over 90 percent of the sailors are college graduates. Six hold Doctor’s Degrees and 45 have a Master’s. The whole team is young but vigorous. The complex work on the carrier requires high management abilities for the commanders onboard(在船上).
【小题1】Why do we visitors get lost easily inside the carrier?
