Passage 4

Nearly every parent says that we never grow up, even when we are 16 or 17 years old.    37    For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.

   38    They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes, expensive school things, and even a dear bike. They think they always do everything for their children. They only want their children to get good grades in the exams in return.

But why their children still can’t understand them? Does it mean that they still want more material things? No. In fact, what they want is a true family. What does a true family mean?

   39    From here, we can get warmth, we can get consolation（安慰）, and we can get happiness. And one important thing is that we can be stronger and more confident in the outside world because we know that we have a family. So I think that parents should sit down to talk with their children to let them know that they have a true family.    40  

No children want to be looked as little ones.

Ⅵ.任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）

In the USA, each year, students take part in a kind of competition called the Science Olympiad（奥林匹克运动会）.

It has a lot of different events. Students go there to show how much they know about the science of music, biology, chemistry and others. My best event is forestry（林业）.

The big day had come at last! First, I went to watch the tower building competition. That’s when students build small towers and put heavy things on top of it. They hope they can hold them up. One of my schoolmates was putting things on her tower. She was nervous, and in the end it was too heavy for her tower to hold it—it broke! I felt bad for her.

After lunch, I helped some teammates with their events. One was geography, and the other was history. I don’t know much about those things, so I just watched my teammates do most of the work.

At last, it was time for my favorite event—forestry. The rules were easy. We had to look at more than 40 different kinds of leaves and find out which plants they were from. We also had to answer some questions about the uses of each leaf. I knew almost all of the leaves and could answer most of the questions. I had spent more than a month studying on the Internet to get ready. At the end, it was time for the awards（颁奖）. I was nervous, because the forestry awards were last. We won second place in the whole state! A nice man gave me a medal and smiled at me.
