In 1921,long before the Walt Disney Company turned Pooh(维尼熊)into an international star of TV and films,Christopher Robin Milne was given a toy bear on his first birthday from his father,A.A.Milne,who bought the stuffed animal from a store.The stuffed animal was named Edward Bear.Years later,Edward was named Winnie.From the time Christopher Robin Milne was a baby until he was about 8 years old,he would receive different stuffed animals.
A.A.Milne was a famous English writer.As he watched his son interact(互动)with Winnie and friends,A.A.Milne thought his child's interaction with the collection of animals would make a great bedtime story.So Milne worked with artist Emest H.Shepard and wrote the first Winnie the Pooh poem,where Edward Bear was known as"Teddy Bear".The writings appeared in Punch magazine and in the book they wrote together,When We Were Very Young,which was published in 1924.In a four-year period,three more books that focused on the bear and his team followed:1926's Winnie-the-Pooh,1927's Now We Are Six,and 1928's The House at Pooh Corner.
The books and poems about Pooh brought great success to the writer,and the characters became favorites with young children and their families around the world.Their popularity led Disney to get the rights(版权)to make films about the characters in 1961.Five years later,Pooh,Tiger,Piglet and the rest of the team appeared on screen for the first time in Winnie-the-Pooh and the Honey Tree.The characters later appeared in TV shows,movies,video games and short films.Pooh's most recent appearance came last year in the popular children's program,Doc McStuffins,where he was a special guest.
26.What did A.A.Milne do according to Paragraph 2? ______
A. He wrote many books about Pooh.
B. He read many bedtime stories to his son.
C. He wrote Punch magazine with Emest H.Shepard.
D. He encouraged his son to play with friends.
27.In what order did the following events take place? ______

b.Pooh appeared in the popular children's program.
c.Milne bought a stuffed animal.
d.Disney got the rights to make films about the characters.
e.Milne worked with artist Ernest H.Shepard.
A. c-a-d-e-b B. e-c-b-a-d C. c-e-a-d-b D. e-b-a-c-d
28.Why did Pooh appear in Doc McStuffins? ______

B. To be a special part of this program.

Spending two or three hours playing outdoors each day can reduce a child's chance of becoming short-sighted,a research shows.It challenges the belief that short-sightedness is caused by computer use,watching TV or reading in weak light.
The Australian government researchers believe that sunlight is good for people's eyes.They compared the vision(视力) and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia.In all,30% of the Singaporean children were short-sighted—this rate(比率) was ten times higher than Australian children.
Both groups spent a similar amount of time reading,watching television and playing computer games.However,the Australian children spent an average(平均) of two hours a day outdoors — 90 minutes more than the Singaporean children.
Professor Ian Morgan,from the Australian Research Council's Vision Centre,said, "Humans are naturally long-sighted,but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors,the number of short-sighted people gets larger.We're also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world and the main reason may be that city children spent less time outdoors."
Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light.But why does playing outside prevent us from becoming short-sighted?Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical which stops the eyeball from growing out of shape and prevents people becoming short-sighted.
So be outdoors.It doesn't matter if that time is spent having a picnic or playing sports.
30.From the passage,we know that ______ cannot reduce a child's chance of becoming short-sighted.
A. staying indoors B. having a picnic C. doing sports D. playing outside
31.How much time did the Singaporean children spend outdoors on average every day in the research? ______
A. 2 hours. B. 90 minutes. C. 1 hour. D. 30 minutes.
32.What is the fifth paragraph mainly about? ______
A. Why playing outside is good for one's eyesight.
B. Why natural light has a special chemical.
C. Why people become short-sighted.
D. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light.
33.Which of the following is true according to the passage? ______
A. People will all become short-sighted after they begin to go to school.
B. Playing outdoors for 2 or 3 hours every day can help protect your eyesight.
C. Children in Australia are more likely to get short-sighted than those in Singapore.
D. If you spend two or three hours playing outside each day,you won't get short-sighted.

There are different kinds of cartoons for kids.

After hearing that a child killed his three-year-old sister after watching Beavis and Butthead,MTV decided to put the show on their network at 10 p.m.instead of during the daytime.They should put The Flintstones and those kinds of cartoons back to help children not to do any kinds of bad things.
