It started with a parenting course I-took when my three sons were in elementary school. The class consisted of eight two-hour sessions and included reading and homework assignments. The basic message weaving its way through all eight sessions was "Pick Your Battles". Another piece of advice that went along with that was "Remain Flexible".

What started out as parenting advice went much further than that and has guided me to this day after taking the class when the situation presented itself. If there were two differing opinions', I would stop and think. I had to decide if the outcome was worth a battle or was even worth the time it took to discuss it. If my son wanted to wear the same superhero shirt to school three days in the row, did it really matter? No, I would have been more comfortable if he had worn a clear shirt each day, but he was happy. If his friends gave him a hard time about his shirt, he would have to deal with it. It wasn't my issue after all.

The class also told us that flexibility especially when it involved kids, was key. Was it more important to follow a planned schedule or was it better to remain flexible enough to make changes to that schedule even at the last minute? Well, of course you need to be flexible and make changes. We were with a group a few years ago, driving through the mountains to a small town where we were planning to have a picnic lunch. On the way there we saw that a beautiful new winery （葡萄酒厂） had opened. It was not on our schedule. If we stopped, it would delay our picnic in the park, but we did stop. We had an amazing experience. Had we not been flexible, we would have missed out on that fantastic opportunity.

24. What will the author do when a dispute arises after the parenting course?

A. Take action to settle it immediately.

B. Judge if it is worth spending time on.

C. Stop the disagreement and compromise.

D. Stick to his view whatever the situation is.

25. How did the author deal with his son's "shirt" problem?

A. Ask him to keep tidy at once.

B. Discuss the problem with his friends.

C. Keep silent and let him realize it by himself.

D. Talk with him frankly about his problem.

26. What can we learn from the experience of having the picnic?

A. Visiting a winery can't be a wrong choice.

B. Making changes can turn out satisfying.

C. Following a planned schedule is a priority.

D. Choosing a suitable place is essential.

27. What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?

A. To recommend the parenting course to other friends.

B. To show that the parenting course is helpful to him.

C. To share with readers his experience in the winery.

D. To introduce the structure of the parenting course.

SAINT JOHN- It's the season for getting fresh fruit and vegetables delivered to your door. Community Supported Agriculture, or CSAs, are: a relatively new phenomenon to New Brunswick but they're creating a community of small-scale, sustainable farming and helping introduce a new generation to fresh harvests. CSAs sell a share of the things they grow on their farm to members of the community, who get a weekly-box of fresh fruit, vegetables, eggs, or other products.

In the past several weeks the province has released the details of a number of farm- supportive programs that provide funding and other opportunities to both new and established farmers. "We released a land suitability link on our website, which is a fantastic opportunity for people who are interested 'in coming to New Brunswick. " The tool allows people to see available land and allows them to identify the most suitable land available for the types of crops that they want to grow. There's also an in-depth document guiding new farmers through the process of starting a farm.

Naomi got the idea to start a family farm in New Brunswick after trying to find a similar piece of land in their native Ontario. She says they've been building towards creating a special approach to farming. It's a land management method where everything is being grown with the added purpose to support the other things being grown, reducing the need for additional inputs

like chemicals, while creating a sustainable ecosystem. For example, they have chickens on the farm for pest control and to help with fertility of soil through compost （肥料）. They've planted certain flowers to attract insects which feed on aphids.

Duncan Godfrey at Hampton Hill Family Farm has been in the CSA business for six years. He says the community has really embraced the CSA model, because it puts them closer to where their food is coming from. "You're welcome to come to the farm and see how we do it, " was one of the messages he promoted when getting started.

28. What do CSAs provide for their customers?

A. Agricultural tours.

B. Community service.

C. Farming courses.

D. Local farm produce.

29. Which of the following best describes Naomi's family farm?

A. No chemicals are used as fertilizers.

B. Things on the farm benefit one another.

C. It earns much profit by growing flowers.

D. It's a chicken farm in the neighborhood.

30. What can we infer about "aphids" in the third paragraph?

A. They cause trouble for farmers.

B. They don't have natural enemies.

C. They attract and destroy insects.

D. They reduce the use of chemicals.

31. Where would you probably find this text?

A. In a scientific report.

B. In a newspaper.

C. In a travel brochure.

D. In a handbook.

D

How often have you heard decision-makers say, "Just give me the facts. " The assumption? The "facts" alone—delivered without emotion—convey the whole story. But experiments by psychologists have long suggested otherwise.

The data show that emotion plays an essential role in all communication. That's because people first seek out and prioritize the emotional meaning hidden in the language. They process the emotional content in about 200 milliseconds. The rest of the meaning gets processed in 400- plus milliseconds. When we comprehend, we combine the "hot" component of processing （emotion and feeling） with the "cold" （facts and logic）. That's how we come up with the full meaning. What's more, hot processing often dominates. And it gains the upper hand well after the cold processing. It doesn't matter if people are reading or listening. Nor does it matter where they live on the planet or how they grew up.

This means that, when choosing your words, you best consider their emotional associations. Choose the language in which the emotional component agrees with or amplifies your intended meaning. Pioneering psychologist Amos Tversky and a team did a classic experiment that shows the impact of getting the feeling wrong: They gave Harvard Medical School physicians statistics on outcomes for lung cancer treatments. The data came from two sets of patients, some who had surgery, and some who had radiation. The doctors were to decide which treatment was preferred.

Roughly half the doctors got data as "probability of living" after treatment. The rest got the same data as the "probability of dying. " The result? The doctors" answers depended not on the data alone. Their judgment is also based on whether the wording indicated a happy or sad emotion. The most interesting finding: "The attractiveness of surgery, compared with radiation, was much greater when the problem was described in terms of the probability of living rather than in terms of the probability of dying. "

32. What can we learn about communication from paragraph 2?

A. The emotional content is often ignored.

B. The language used doesn't matter that much.

C. Feelings become understood before facts.

D. Emotions are more important than words.

33. What can we infer about the hot processing?

A. It's powerful.

B. It's complex.

C. It's delicate.

D. It's flexible.

34. What does the underlined word "amplifies" mean in paragraph 4?

A. Comprehends.

A. Implications of words.

B. Predicts.

C. Enhances.

D. Evaluates.

35. What influenced the doctor's evaluation in the experiment?

B. Probability of survival.

C. Emotional stability.

D. Personal preferences.

Keeping your room picked up and tidy can be an ongoing battle. Today we're going to focus on creating a plan for you and your child to use as you pick up or clean your room.

Grab some music. Who said that picking up has to be done in silence? It doesn't! 36Allow the music to motivate you and give you energy as you go through this process. Don't underestimate the power of music over your mood, your motivation, and your energy level!

37 It is so easy to fall into the trap of starting to pick up a room and picking up an item here and there and putting something away here and there. Then, you stop and look around and you realize it doesn't look like you've done a thing! There is a very easy solution to this: 38 Instead, pick a small section of the room to start with. Focus all your picking up energies in that one section.

Keep stuff where you will use it. Remember, when you pick up the room, the big focus should be on taking things that are out of their spot and putting them back into their correct spot.  39 They don't have a spot yet in your room. So, what do you do with these items? Put them where you will use them.

Make it fun.  40 It doesn't! Remember, picking up does not have to be boring! Particularly when it comes to children, if they are able to associate fun with picking up, they will be much more likely to want to do it in the future—or at least not fight you tooth and nail on it!

A. Focus on one item.

B. One small section at a time.

C. But you will run across certain items.

D. Who said that picking up has to be boring?

E. Don't start cleaning the whole room at once.

F. Pick your favorite upbeat tune and play it while you work.

G. Singing along with the music helps us focus on our task!

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。

There was a time when my favorite thing to do in the entire world was to play in the woods near our house. A river ran through them, so not only could I climb branches, but I could turn over rocks on the riverbank and find baby eels （鳗鱼）.

My favorite book was called Guide to Reptiles （爬行动物）. My father had given it to me for my birthday, and I read every page over and over, looking at the pictures of colorful animals. l Some of the snakes were the most beautiful creatures I had ever seen, and some were described as poisonous, but still an important part of the ecosystem.

Little did I know that my book would end up saving a life.

My family moved to Virginia, into a new house. The houses were so new that no one had lived in them before. In fact, woods had been there first, and almost all the trees had been cut down to make room for houses and driveways. Inside our new house, everything smelled like fresh paint. Outside, no lawns had been planted, but my father tossed out grass seed and baby seedlings grew. My brother Patrick and I could not walk on them. We had to play in the driveway.

All the same, I liked our new house. One of the best things about living near the woods were the animals that would come into our yard. Rabbits and turtles came over every night. It seemed as if they were only trying to go home, and instead, what they had found was a big new land where their old homes used to be.

Besides playing in the driveway, we spent time in a sandbox, which my father built right next to the driveway. One day before dinner, I ran to the sandbox to build a castle but found there in the sandbox was a snake.

It was lying very still, and it was beautiful. The snake had rings of color around it-red, then white, then yellow, then black. I had seen a picture just like it in my reptile book, and I remembered that it was one of the prettiest snakes in it. It said in the book that the poisonous snake looked very much like it. I was scared and ran inside.

Para 1: "Dad! Dad! There's a snake in the sandbox!” I yelled.

Para 2: Two hours after the call, the zoo expert arrived with a secure container.
