26、   Self-control is a skill that children need to succeed in school, socially and emotionally. The development of self-control begins at birth and continues throughout our lives. As babies, we have little or no control over our behaviors and emotions, but as we get older, with the help of parents or caregivers, we learn how to take turns, how to pay attention in class, stick to a challenging task, and restrain(制止) from hitting another child. These abilities continue to develop in our childhood and then youthhood. Also, it is clear that being impulsive(易冲动的) can have bad effects on children, causing interpersonal problems, poor physical health, and psychiatric disorders.

Therefore, by learning self-control, children can make right decisions and respond to situations in positive ways. One of the effective strategies, when helping children develop self-control abilities, is to select developmentally proper tasks. Try setting up simple goals first, where success is expected, before moving onto the next goal. For preschoolers, goals might include not interrupting or not fighting on the playground. For early elementary school students, right goals might be following bedtime rules.

However, it’s not enough to set up simple goals, because for children of the same age, there are still some differences in the development of self-control abilities. Some general strategies often help them learn right self-control behaviors.

•Take a break

Encourage children to take a break or “time in” whenever they feel down, annoyed or angry. Stepping away from an upsetting situation can help a child calm down.

•Teach and provide attention

Paying attention is a skill that can be taught. Encourage children to resist interrupting by learning to observe others without talking, so they can join in easily. Make sure to provide children with attention at times so they don’t feel ignored and therefore are unlikely to interrupt.

•Use proper rewards(奖励)

In order to develop positive behaviors, children need frequently positive feedback. Praise and consistent feedback can be highly rewarding for young children. It is important to let a child know what a desired behavior is.

•Use activities designed to teach self-regulation(自我管理)

Using specific activities can help teach young children skills that improve self-control. Some of these skills include dealing with “wanting something I can’t have”, understanding feelings, and controlling anger.

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 1 ?

A.As people get older, their attention will improve naturally.

B.Being impulsive can often cause bad results in children’s grades.

C.Children can learn how to control themselves with the help of parents.

D.Self-control development begins at birth and keeps growing till youthhood.

【2】What can teachers do when students feel very disappointed?

A.Teach and provide attention. B.Give rewards and suggestions.

C.Teach skills to regulate themselves. D.Encourage them to take a break.

【3】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.Time Waits for No Man — The Development of Self-Control

B.Have Power over Your Mind — Tips on Developing Self-Control

C.Prevention Is Better than Cure — Rules of Self-Control Behaviors

D.Think Twice Before You Act — The Importance of Self-Control Skills

27、Want to save the environment? You probably can't fix everything on your own, but by taking small steps and keeping the environment in mind every day, you can make a difference.

•Think Green. Challenge yourself to think about the environment as you live your life. If you turn off lights when you leave the room, turn off your TV when you're not watching it, you'll save energy. If you take shorter showers, you'll save water.

•Shop Green. Shopping is fun, but buying things you don't need is wasteful and bad for the earth. Before you buy something, ask yourself how much you'll really use it. Keep yourself away from buying products with unnecessary packaging(包装), and whenever possible, buy things that were locally made instead of those shipped from far away.

•Dress Green. Wear green trousers and T­shirts if you want to. But what really matters isn't the colour, it's how the clothes were made. If you want to help the environment, the best place to find the clothes is at a_vintage_store,_but you might not want to buy everything used.No matter where you shop, keep an eye out for products made from environmentally friendly materials like organic(有机的)cotton, which is grown without the use of pesticides(杀虫剂)．

•Study Green. What's better than learning about the environment? Save it while you learn. It can be as simple as using both sides of a piece of paper before you recycle it, or reusing an old textbook instead of buying a new one. If you want to do more, join an environmental group at your school, and encourage your friends to join, too.

28、请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。

If you ever go to the northwestern part of the United States, go and find some redwood trees. You won’ t regret (后悔) it. Seeing a redwood tree is an experience that you will r【1】 for the rest of your life.

Red woods are the tallest and widest trees in the world. The largest ones have a diameter( 直径) of more than six metres. What about their h【2】 ? Most redwoods are at least 100 metres tall. Think about h【3】 big redwoods are. Most redwoods are thicker than a bus and taller than the Statue of Liberty.

A famous American writer named John Steinbeck w【4】 about redwoods. He said, “ No one has ever succeeded in painting or photographing a redwood tree.” He meant that it’ s i【5】 to understand the beauty of a redwood if you don’ t see a real one.

Because redwoods are so huge. they need a lot of water to survive. Redwoods have needles(针叶) instead of l【6】 . The needles take in water from the fog. Most trees take in water through their roots (根). Redwoods do that too, but water from their roots is not enough. They’ re so big that the water they take in through the roots can’ t r【7】 the top parts of the tree.

Redwoods have developed other special ways to survive. Their bark(树皮) can be more than 10 centimetres t【8】 . Their bark also has a taste that insects dislike. As a result, insects don’ t eat redwood bark. When a redwood tree is in a fire, something interesting happens to its bark. When the bark is b【9】 , it becomes hard and it turns into a shield(保护物). That shield protects the inside of the red wood.

Here’ s a【10】 amazing thing about redwoods: They live for a very long time. Some redwoods can live for up to 2,000 years.
