21、 Every kid has their own favorites. Dolls, dinosaurs, remote controls and cellphones — they might have a toy box with a wide range of play things to keep them entertained, but there's firm favorite they always reach for first-cars. Although the sex difference in the toy world remains, it's not only little boys who are drawn to all things with wheels. That my 20-month-old daughter dotes on the red bus toy is the proof of this.
From age 0 to 2, children are in the sensorimotor (感觉运动的) stage of development, explains Alyssa Wilkins. “They are learning by absorbing everything through their senses — sight, touch, taste, smell and hearing,” Wilkins says. “Toys and real-life objects like cars are very sensorily engaging. Kids can interact with toy cars, trucks, etc. through spinning (旋转) their wheels, watching them move in a variety of directions, or hearing the sounds they make.”
Plus, kids are just naturally drawn to loud and moving objects. “They see the lights on the cars and the rolling wheels, and hear the sound of the running engine. It's very engaging,” Wilkins says. “Kids will always be drawn to attractive and loud things because that is what engages their brain and sensory systems.”
Another appeal of toy vehicles is that they're typically small enough to fit in a child's hand Cars become the favorite of both boys and girls because they can put their cars in their pockets r carry them around. A car is also a cause-and-effect toy — it teaches children that their actions can make something happen. “It's super interesting and exciting for kids to learn that they can change something in their environment, and they may feel proud of what they have done,” Capanna-Hodge says.
Every child is unique in how they engage with toys, and the reasons for their play style may be diverse and complex. Ultimately, how your kids play with their toy vehicles could be a little window into what controls or excites them.

A.The smaller the toy vehicles are, the more the kids like them.

C.The more toy vehicles the kids have, the more benefits the kids get.
D.Kids can gain a sense of achievement from playing with toy vehicles.

22、Today's world is not an easy adjustment for young adults. Key skill set for success is persistence (毅力), a characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence.
BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time,the persistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school.
"There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers,"Padilla-Walker said. "This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence-which can be taught-are key to a child's life success.”
Researchers determined that dads need to practice an "authoritative" parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian:rigid,demanding or controlling. Rather,an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics:children feel warmth and love from their father;responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed children are given an appropriate level of autonomy(自主权).
In the study,about 52 percent of the dads exhibited above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time,children raised by an authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop persistence,which leads to better outcomes in school.
This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence,which is an avenue of future research.
【1】What is special about the BYU professors' study?
A.It centered on fathers' role in parenting.
B.It was based on a number of large families.
C.It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles.
D.It aimed to improve kids' achievement in school.
【2】What would an authoritative father do when raising his children?
A.Ignore their demands.
B.Make decisions for them.
C.Control their behaviors.
D.Explain the rules to them.
【3】Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers?
A.Single parents.
B.Children aged from 11 to 14.
C.Authoritarian fathers.
D.Mothers in two-parent homes.
【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Three Characteristics of Authoritative Fathers.
B.Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in Future.
C.Children Tend to Learn Determination from Father.
D.Family Relationship Influences School Performance.
23、 Four people are talking about their problems when studying English.
I am Denver. I work 50 hours a week as a taxi driver, so I talk to people all day. They understand me, but I often make a lot of mistakes. No one corrects me. My vocabulary is strong. Grammar is my problem. I’m trying to change little by little. For example. I don’t use the past tense. I always say. "I drive him to the office this morning “instead of” I drove him to the office this morning.” |
My name is Maria Luisa. I’m teaching myself English. but I’m not good at grammar. Besides, I find it’s really difficult to find ways to practice English. I live in an area where everyone speaks my language. My neighbors and friends speak Spanish. I can speak Spanish in the supermarket and at the post office. |
I am Wang Ling. I understand the grammar and the readings in my class and I think my writing is good, but I’m very nervous when I speak English. I don’t want to make any mistakes because I’m afraid people will think that I’m stupid. Also, my pronunciation isn’t good. When I speak, people often say, “What? Say that again”. |
I am Yoshi. I have been in the United States for one year. I’m studying hard and I know grammar well, but the vocabulary is very difficult. When I listen, I don’t understand many of the words. When I try to read, there are three or four new words in every sentence. I feel discouraged. |
【1】Who has difficulty with grammar?
A.Denver and Wang Ling. B.Maria Luisa and Yoshi.
C.Denver and Maria Luisa. D.Wang Ling and Yoshi.
【2】What would be the best advice for Maria Luisa?
A.Try to have a wide vocabulary.

24、If you’ve ever wondered how often you should shampoo (用洗发剂洗) your hair, you’re not alone. 【1】 While many people prefer to wash their hair daily, others think that once every few days is best. But that still leaves us with the very important question - how much is too much?
【2】 When you wash your hair with shampoo, the surfactant (表面活性剂) in the shampoo mixes with water and works to clean dirt and oil from your hair. Although clean hair is definitely a good thing, frequent shampooing can lead to some problems such as split ends (发梢开叉) and dull hair.
Most people who wash their hair every day say they do it to avoid a build-up of oil. But in fact, skipping a wash is the best way to prevent oil from building up. Most often the oily substance in your hair doesn’t come from natural oil but from the products you use for treatment and styling. 【3】
Actually, how often you should shampoo your hair depends on your hair type. People who sweat a lot or live in a humid area may need to shampoo their hair more frequently. 【4】 If your hair is oily, you should try to use a shampoo that is specially designed for oily hair.
Since thicker hair collects less oil, it’ll need less washing. 【5】 Anyway, the best way to know how often to wash your hair is to experiment. As long as you don’t have scalp (头皮) problems, you can wash your hair once a week.
A.It is evident that shampoo can be harmful to your hair.
B.Oily hair, on the other hand, is more difficult to deal with.
C.Washing your hair every day can be costly and unhelpful.
D.It’s a question that has been bothering thousands of people.
E.In addition, dry and curly hair can often be left unwashed for days.
F.You may notice some changes if you start skipping washing your hair.
G.To answer that, we first need to understand what happens when you wash your hair.
