24、 Hank and his brother, Isaac, walked into home and called their mom. As they entered the living room, they saw their mom lying on the floor.
Hanks shook her and shouted, “Mommy, wake up!” She didn't answer, so Hank tried again. Isaac began to cry.
“Don't worry, Isaac. It will be OK,” Hank said, but he had to think quickly. He was only eight years old. What could he do? Then he remembered how Grandma used to play a game with him. She would pretend to be an operator. She would ask him questions like “What is your name?” “What is your address?” He had learned all the right answers, so he knew what to do. Hank took up the phone and dialed the emergency number. A lady answered the phone and said, “What is your emergency?” Hank was shaking so he took a deep breath and said, “Hello! My name is Hank Robinson. My mom is on the floor. She looks like she is sleeping, but I can't wake her up.” Then the lady asked Hank all the questions he had practiced with Grandma. He remembered to speak loudly and clearly because it was important. If the lady did not understand him, she could not help Mom. So again Hank said, “I live at 1203 Oak Street in Madison.”
Soon two doctors came to help. They helped Mom to wake up. Finally, she sat up and began to feel better. She smiled and thanked the doctors, and they told her that Hank was a hero because he helped save his mom's life.

25、Researchers found how parents’ communication styles help their young children to develop language skills. Daniel Yurovsky, professor in psychology at Carnegie Mellon University and his team developed a method to experimentally evaluate how parents use what they know about their children’s language when they talk to them.They found that parents have extremely exact models of their children’s language knowledge, and use these models to tune (调正) the language they use when speaking to them.
“We have known for years that parents talk to children more differently than to other adults in a lot of ways. For example, simplifying their speech, repeating words and stretching out vowel sounds.” said Yurovsky. “That helps young kids get a toehold into language, but whether parents change the way they talk as children are learning language, gives children language input that is ‘just right’ for learning the next thing.”
Yurovsky and his team continued to study to understand exactly how parents tune their interactions to match their child’s speech development. The team developed a game where parents helped their children to pick a specific animal from a set of three. Half of the animals in the matching game were animals that children typically learn before age 2, like cat and cow. And the other half were animals that are typically learned later such as peacock and leopard. The researchers asked 41 child-adult pairs to play the game. They measured the differences in how parents talked about animals they thought their children knew and those they thought their children did not know.
They found parents had an unbelievable exact knowledge of their child’s language because they had watched them grow and learn. These results showed that parents leveraged (利用) their knowledge of their children’s language development to fine-tune the information they provided.
“We found that parents not only used what they already knew about their children’s language knowledge before the study, but also that if they found out they were wrong—their child didn’t actually know ‘leopard’, for example, they changed the way they talked about that animal the next time around.” said Yurovsky. “Right now we train language models by giving them all of the language data we can get our hands on all at once. But we might do better if we could give them the right data at the right time, keeping it at just the right level that they are ready for.” Yurovsky added.
【1】Why do parents talk to children differently than to other adults?
A.To reduce kids’ fear to face difficulties.
B.To help develop their kids’ languages.
C.To make their talks understood.
D.To call for their kids’ attention.
【2】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

C.The experiment to find out exact talking ways parents use.
D.The methods children and parents use to talk with each other.
【3】According to the writer, language trainers or teachers should ________.
A.explain the word ‘leopard’ in another way
B.leverage children’s knowledge to fit theirs

26、My best friend and I made our first trip to Ireland less than a year ago. I wasn’t very excited about it at the very beginning. But my uncle wanted me to visit Ireland and offered to pay for my trip. Then I did. All of the words “magical, charming and memorable” don’t even describe what Ireland is. Our favourites were Kilkenny, Cobh and Killarney. We did a self-driver tour.
We stayed in a castle in Dublin for two days, where my ancestors(祖先) came from. The town we thought we might be bored in was Kilkenny, but we loved every minute we were there. There were so many places to explore and the pictures we took were beautiful.
It was so exciting to see the little village of Cobh and know it was the last stop for the Titanic(a famous ship) at that time. We loved the visitor centre there and the little shops. We never got any bad food there. It was so mouth-watering at every stop! And when we stayed in Westmeath, we saw the Trim Castle through the windows and found some scenes from Brave Heart which was filmed there. We were so excited. Again, more beautiful pictures were taken in that tiny town.
We love the country, the people, the food and the magic. We would go back very soon. I was so thankful for my uncle who had given me the chance to be there.
I have no words to adequately describe our trip. Go, explore the small villages, eat and enjoy! I still look at my pictures and can’t believe I was actually there.

Any parent can tell you that children have an ability to get into mischief(顽皮). But when they get into some supernatural(超自然的)trouble, they’ll need help to get things back to normal. Author Hélène Schweiger tells a story of finding magic in her book The Magic Pond.
The story begins with twins Danielka and Jirik, who sneak out(偷偷溜出)one night to look at the full moon. When they reach a pond, Jirik looks at the reflection of the moon on the water. All of a sudden, Jirik is turned into a frog!
Unsure of how to fix this, the twins turn to their mother, but she’s just as stumped (被难住的) as they are. Fortunately, an elf (精灵) is happy to help them, but they’ll have to work together to succeed.
The Magic Pond takes the reader on a mysterious journey. But even with the magical creatures(生物)that we meet throughout, it is the human family that carries the heart of the story. The twins argue and joke just like any pair of twins would. It’s clear that Danielka and Jirik share a close bond.
When it comes to imagination, the sky’s the limit(没有限制)to what kids can believe. Danielka and Jirik accept the magic they see without any doubt. Openness to new ideas help Jirik change back to his human form.
Hélène Schweiger reminds us that for all the trouble that children can get into, it’s a part of their development as they learn to understand the world around them. Childhood mischief is a necessary part of their childlike wonder, and in the end, their curiosity is a valuable part of what makes children’s imaginations so powerful.
