16、ar with young readers.(B)On January 27, in order to win the new pneumonia Resistance War（抗击新型肺炎战）, the Ministry of Education issued（公布）a notice on putting off the start time of school in spring 2020. It was said that school should not start before February 17. The exact start time of school will dep
17、end on situations and further notices.However, many parents are very worried that putting off the start of school may affect childrens studies.

19、tice, that is, to organize online teaching and create a network platform（平台）, where necessary courses will be shown every day, and online teaching will be given by excellent teachers of the subject, and students can learn at home through computer or mobile network.

24、ere lived an old man and his wife. Their only pet was a dog named Shiro.

Whenever Shiro happened to look into his kitchen, he
25、 at once kicked him or threw something at him. One day Shiro was heard barking for a long time in the field at the back of his masters house. The old man hurried out to see what had happened. As soon as Shiro saw his mater he ran to meet him and pulled on his coat and led him under a large tree. Her
26、e he began to dig with his paws. The old man thought that something might be hidden beneath the tree. So he ran back to the house, took out his spade(铁锹) and began to dig the ground at that spot. After digging for some time, he saw some gold coins, and the deeper he dug, the more gold coins he found
27、. As last, all the gold coins lay shining on the ground. The old neighbor next door began to think that he, too, would find a fortune(财富) if he had Shiro.

28、ghbor, so they agreed to lend him the dog. The old neighbor returned to his home. He then took his spade to his own field and stopped in front of a big tree. He forced Shiro to dig and look for gold coins for him. The old man was very pleased when he saw the dog begin to scratch and dig. However, th
29、ere was nothing to be found but a bad smell. Al last, he found a rubbish heap(垃圾堆). Instead of blaming his own greed(贪婪) for his disappointment, the old neighbor blamed the poor dog.

32、he love of money is the door of all evil(邪恶).(D)As is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.Psychologists have discovered that

34、 “truth bias (偏见)” with their own teenagers, but when faced with lies from other peoples children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.Dr Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children m
35、ay lead to parents failing to discover their childrens lies. Parents truth bias may result in parents being less doubtful of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat (欺骗) them.”Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at aro
36、und the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive (认知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they pe
37、rformed a test after being asked not to look at the answers.
