15、kills can build a path to a lifelong love of reading and can help your child get a head start in school. While reading to your child is still the most important thing you can do to build reading skills, there are many techniques that can help.Make reading fun. Play games with your child as you read.
16、 Many traditional childrens games can be adapted to encourage reading skills. While reading or during play, tell your child, “I spy with my little eye, something that begins with the letter b.” Help the child find something on the page or in the room that beginswith that letter. For example, “I see
17、a barn.” This can also be used to teach beginning letter sounds. “I spy with my little eye, something that begins with the sounds.” Help the child find a word that begins with the “s” sound.In this variation(变化) on the popular game, instruct the child that, “Simon says, point to something that start
18、s with the letter n.” The child can then find an object in the room or a body part, such as the nose, that starts with the letter presented. This can also be used to teach beginning sounds.Make a game out of rhyming (押韵) words by making up silly words to rhyme with the childs name or favorite toys.
19、This sets the stage for rhyming real words by showing the child the similarities of sounds. As the child masters making up the words, begin rhyming real words to one another.Tips to raise a successful reader:Put books in places where the child plays. If books are easily accessible, children are more
20、 likely to pick them up.Let children “read to you” by looking at pictures. Making up stories to go along with illustrations helps children discover how words relate to pictures.Take books along on trips or even short visits to the doctors office or grocery store.Have children help you shop. Reading
21、grocery lists and looking for specific items help build vocabulary.27. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. A good reading habit can benefit your child at school.B.

23、9. What message does the author deliver in the passage?A. Interest is the best teacher B. Practice makes perfect C. Good methods are half done D. Failure teaches success 30. What are the intended readers of the text?A. Parents. B. Children C. Educators.
24、; D. People in general. DEverybody has to face bad days in their life. Some face illnesses, some face fears, some face poverty, some face helplessness, etc. No one can escape from it. It is a rule of life. Two things always combines together like joy and sadness, laugh and cry,
25、 health and illness, profit and loss, morning and night, confidence and inferiority complex (自卑), victory and failure likewise good days and bad days.You know what is the biggest advantage of bad days? You come to know GOD. What is God? What he can do? He is so friendly, understanding, loving a
26、nd moreover God is the Superman who can do anything in a second. Yes, true, he can do anything. He is the only light in darkness. God is so merciful that he always forgives and never complains whether you ignore him many times; that is why, according to me, God is the only best and faithful friend w
27、ho never cheats.When bad days come, a person first of all cannot understand what is going on. Why me? But after sometimes he realizes his strength and starts doing every single thing to come out of it. When he comes out, that journey is thought to be very painful. However, when you get through it, y
28、ou will find your journey very meaningful, and you will feel like its your rebirth. You have totally changed your thoughts, your opinions, and you can understand life better. You get the meaning of your life. In short, you start becoming wise.The biggest lesson of life during bad days for
29、me is that a person becomes spiritual and a giver which he wasnt before. Life means to create. First think what you want in your life, then start giving the same thing. This is one of the most important things I have learnt in my life. You want love and then start spreading it; you want money and th
30、en start giving to needy; you want happiness and then start doing all things which bring happiness. Everything is in your hand and you only need to give first. If dont have everything, then give or share what you have. Still you feel you have nothing to share, and then give smile. You cant imagine t
31、hat your smile can do wonder for someone. So start smiling from today onwards.The most beautiful lesson I have learnt in my life is that if you are in pain, remember one thing: time is though to be hard but it would be the best time of your life. You know why we have to face hard days? Did you think
32、 about it? No! Ok, I will tell you. We always forget two unforgettable things. The first is God and the second is family. Nowadays, money is everything. Money is important, in fact very important but it is not the whole life, so why to spend the whole life in earning money? When will we live? You ca
33、nt do it tomorrow, what you can do now? So dont let the day pass without enjoying it. One thing I must share with you is that if you want to grow and learn more than you know, then do whatever you want to do but beyond your comfort zone. Always try to think that I can, and then nothing is impossible
34、 for you. Difficulty is in the mind but not in work. You know one thing when we accept life as it comes or we accept that everything happens for a reason or for our betterment. Believe me, you will find your hard days as an adventure but you need to trust God and at the end you will find yourse

46、in” in the brain.The study, conducted by neuroscientists and psychologist from the University of Maryland, concluded that women talked more because they had more of the Foxp2 protein. The research, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, found that higher levels were found among humans that were w
47、omen but in rats that were males. Their findings came after it was previously claimed that ladies speak about 20,000 words a day over 13,000 more than men. “This study is one of the first to report a sex difference in the expression of a language-associated protein in humans or animals,” said Prof M
48、argaret McCarthy, who led the study. In their study, the researchers attempted to determine what might make male rats more vocal than their female friends.They separated four-day-old rats from their mothers and then counted the number of times they cried out in the “ultrasonic (超声波的) range
49、”, the frequencies higher than humans can hear, over five minutes. While both sexes called out hundreds of cries, the males called out twice as often, they found. But when the pups were returned to their mothers cage, she cared for her sons first. Tests conducted on the parts of the brain known to b
50、e associated with vocal calls showed the male pups have up to twice as much Foxp2 protein as the females. The researchers then increased the production in the brains of female pups and reduced it in males. This led to the female rats crying out more often and their mothers showing more interest in them. In contrast, males became less “talkative”.The researchers then t
