Abut 30 years ag, an acustic neurma (听神经瘤) was fund inside my bdy. The remval f the neurma caused my temprary balance issues and permanent hearing lss in ne ear. Apart frm this, I was fine.
Unexpectedly, the neurma came back years later. It had t be remved again. Otherwise it wuld threaten the rest f my brain. When I awke frm the secnd peratin, I had strke-like symptms. The whle right side f my bdy almst stpped functining, and still des.
Overnight my whle identity had changed. I used t effrtlessly leap up the stairs tw at a time, but nw it takes fifteen minutes t struggle. Attempts at the recvery f the ld me prved t be fruitless. My family rle als shifted frm a father t a dependent child, and cupled with my cmmunicatin prblems, this led t increased frustratin (沮丧) and anger.
There were cncerns t abut whether I wuld ever be accepted again in the wider wrld. Sn after this I just managed t swim in a pl. A ten-year-ld by I didn’t knw came up and asked me if I had been n the water slide yet. As plitely as pssible, I said n, and we struck up a cnversatin abut it. Fr the first time a stranger was speaking t me as an equal like befre. Thugh insignificant then, it pened drs t a whle new way f being seen, and seeing myself.

Since the beginning f the summer in 2022, China has been burning ht under the wrst heatwave in decades. A number f peple in Zhejiang, Henan, Jiangsu and Sichuan prvinces were diagnsed with thermplegia (热射病), the mst severe frm f heatstrke, and sme even died f this disease.
In a warming wrld, the risks f heatwaves are increasing. Accrding t a study, the number f deaths caused by heatwaves in China has increased rapidly since 1979, frm abut 4000 persns per year in the 1980s t nearly 16000 persns per year in the 2010s.

Fr lts f kids, tddlerhd (幼儿期) is an imprtant time fr friendship. Studies shw that the earlier kids learn t frm psitive relatinships, the better they are at relating t thers as teenagers and adults. Playing tgether als helps these kids practice scial behavirs, such as kindness, sharing, and cperatin.
Even s, hw quickly yur child develps int a scial creature may als depend n his temperament(性格). Sme tddler s are very scial, but thers are shy. In additin, the way that tddlers demnstrate that they like ther children is markedly different frm what adults think f as expressins f friendship. Research at Ohi State University in Clumbus fund that a tddler’s way f saying “I like yu” during play is likely t cme in the frm f cpying a friend’s behavir.
This seemingly unusual way f demnstrating fndness can result in unpleasant behavir. Regardless f hw much they like a playmate, they may still grab his tys, refuse t share, and get bssy. But experts say that this is a nrmal and necessary part f friendship fr kids this age. Thrugh play experiences, tddlers learn scial rules. That’s why it’s s imprtant t take an active rle in yur tddler’s scial encunters by setting limits and ffering frequent reminders f what they are. When yu establish these guidelines, explain the reasns behind them.
Begin by helping yur child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him s sad?”), then suggest hw he culd reslve the prblem (“Maybe he wuld feel better if yu let him play the ball.”). When yur child shares r shws empathy(同理心) tward a friend, praise him (“Ben stpped crying! Yu made him feel better.”).
Anther way t encurage healthy scial interactin is by encuraging kids t use wrds- nt fists-t express hw they feel. It’s als imprtant t be mindful f hw yur child’s persnality affects playtime. Kids are easy t get angry when they’re sleepy r hungry, s schedule playtime when they’re refreshed.
12. What des it indicate when tddlers cpy their playmates’ behavir?
A. They are interested in acting.B. They are shy with the strangers.
C. They are fnd f their playmates.D. They are tired f playing games.
13. What des the authr suggest parents d fr their kids?
A. Design games fr them.B. Find them suitable playmates.
C. Play tgether with them.D. Help them understand scial rules.
14. What is the functin f the quted statements in paragraph 4?
A. Giving examples.B. Explaining cncepts.
C. Prviding evidence.D. Making cmparisns.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Hw Children Adapt t ChangesB. Hw t Be a Rle Mdel fr Children
C. Hw Yur Baby Learns t LveD. Hw t Cmmunicate with Yur Kid
