A
This idea is unkind. Children need to have a good holiday at the end of a busy school year. The long holidays give them time to do things they wouldn't otherwise get to do. In my family we go to Ireland and see relatives and friends during the summer vacation. And it might seem long to some people， but time flies when you're having fun. —Ruby Mullin
I have good memories of my own long summer holidays， and I love the chance to have days out with my son. I think many parents， especially single parents like me， have made job choices based on being able to have time off for the summer — and now we've done that， we don't want to see things changed. —Viki Bantock
Having worked at a school that had a four-week summer break instead of the usual six， I'd say longer holidays are better. Teachers are under so much stress now to get good results; most put in lots of hours in the evening and at weekends and feel very tired by the end of term. There is no progress in learning after a six-week holiday， but it only takes a few weeks for students to get back up to speed. —Marek Kaminski
A shorter summer holiday would be much better. The six-week break seems a thing for another age， when mothers didn't work and your mum lived round the corner to give you a hand. If I was able to take a six-week holiday， great， I'd love it — but in the real world that isn't possible. Instead， I end up spending around ￡600 on childcare for each week when I'm working. —Nachelle Crowther

My father was 44 and knew he wasn't going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.
Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter， some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now， you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one day， you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn't know what that would be， and neither did I， but at times in my life when I've felt proud of myself， I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask， “Is this what you were talking about， Dad？ Should I keep going？”
A long way from 12 now， I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately， though， I've come to believe he'd want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of， and believe in， somebody else. It's time to start writing my own letters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don't hold back because they're afraid to fail. They're only afraid of failing us. They don't worry about being disappointed. Their fear — as mine was until my father's letter — is of being a disappointment.
Give your children permission to succeed. They're waiting for you to believe in them.
I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete， that love will be more real， and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts：“Don't worry; you'll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.

Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it's because of the bad weather， or the disappointing grades on a difficult test， and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms (症状) often pass quickly， as teens move on to new school subjects， or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks， it might point to something serious.
As teenagers develop， they push new boundaries (边界)， complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development， parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers' life， providing safe boundaries for teens to grow， even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted.
Parents need to provide rules， while also remaining flexible (灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens' need for freedom. For example， teenagers will often feel frustrated， embarrassed， and even angry because though they want freedom， they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend's house， or need their mothers to take them to school.
The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teens' choices as long as those choices won't have long-term harmful effects. For example， even if a parent doesn't enjoy the music his or her teen listens to， it's unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college， or lead to health problems. However， if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving， parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom.
8．Why do teens' feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly？
A．Their teachers help them.
B．They take some medicine.
C．Their parents talk with them.
D．They change their attention.
9．What does the example in paragraph 3 show？
A．Freedom must be given at anytime.
B．Teens are mad at being controlled.
C．Teens need both freedom and proper rules.
D．Rules must be absolutely strict for teens.
10．What should parents do about their teens' choices？
A．Support their helpful hobbies.
B．Tell them which college to attend.
C．Cancel their after-school activities.
D．Get them away from singing pop songs.
11．What is the best title for the text？
A．How to Be with Growing Teens
B．Causes of Teens' Sadness
C．Teens' Worries About Strict Rules
D．The Importance of Making Friends with Teens
D
Children who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of becoming better readers than those who don't. With help from their parents， children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.
“A lot of parents think after their children learn to read， they should stop reading to them，” Donna George said. “They are sadly mistaken.”
George offers her services to parents at the Title Ⅰ Learning Centers. She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do. “It is better for children to hear things at a high level than where they are，” George said. “Parents are their children's first teacher.” Parents help their children build listening， phonics， comprehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.
Before parents can identify reading problems， they should escape the enemy — television and limit the time their children spend watching television. George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms， setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch. Louise Jones said that while her 14-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son enjoy reading， the television sometimes becomes a distraction. So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together， like the Harry Potter series.
Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it. If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day， children would not have so many problems in school. It is the parents' job to help build that desire in their children， and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.
12．According to George， reading aloud to children ________.
A．helps them correct mistakes
B．is helpful to their reading
C．is parents' first duty to their children
D．can get children out of television's attraction
13．What does the underlined word “distraction” in paragraph 4 mean？
A．Something that can improve children's reading skills.
B．Something that can help children form the right habit of reading.
C．Something that can make children interested in reading.
D．Something that can stop children concentrating on reading.
14．What is important according to the fourth paragraph？
A．Reading skills.　　　　　　 B．Reading speed.
C．Reading materials. D．Reading environment.
15．What would be the best title for the passage？
A．Children Spend More Time Reading with Parents
B．Parents Are Their Children's First Teacher
C．How Parents Make Their Children a Better Reader
D．How to Improve Children's Reading Ability

Kids are begging parents for cell phones at younger and younger ages， leaving families with tough choices to make. It might take some time to teach kids how to use phones as tools， not toys. Here are a few ways to get the message across.
Tell them not to use phones at school. Phones can be a distraction from learning when used in the classroom. __16__ In fact， 43% of teens admit that they often or sometimes use their phones as a way to avoid face-to-face communication with others.
Encourage them to contact long-distance relatives. __17__ They're also for keeping in touch with people who you may not get to talk to as often. If you have families who live in another city or state， ask your kids to strike up a conversation.
Lead by example. Setting an example is not only about how you use your phone， but also about how much you use it. When you feel bored and expect to glance over social media， fight it by taking a short walk. __18__
Advise them not to use phones at the dinner table. For many families， the only time they truly get together is breaking bread at the end of a long day. __19__ Asking your children to leave their phones far from the dinner table is a great way to solve the problem.
__20__ Sometimes， kids need a little push in order to make better choices about their phones. If they're struggling with healthy habits， put some real-world events on the calendar. Good options include going to an amusement park， working together on a craft project or signing your kids up for sports.
A．Plan other forms of entertainment.
B．Prepare a dinner together with your children.
C．Screen time before bed reduces sleep quality.
D．They can also prevent students from connecting with one another.
E．So it is wise of parents to stress the importance of parent-child time.
F．Also， instead of reading a headline， why not pull out a book to read？
G．Phones aren't just for texting the best friend who lives two blocks away.

第一节
参考范文：
Sunday　May 15th Sunny
Today is the National Day for Families. In response to the call of the country to pay attention to family parentchild education and cultivate teenagers with allround development， the familyschool committee encouraged each family to organize family day activities on 5.15.
On this day， my parents put down their cell phones after work and listened to me patiently when I talked about the things that happened to me recently. Besides， my father and I helped my mother with housework and prepared dinner together. At the dinner table， we exchanged emotions with each other. Our hearts are closer， and we think it's a great day.
第二节
参考范文：
That evening， my parents took me out.We went to dinner at my favorite restaurant.As we sat at the table， my mom started the conversation by saying， “Anderson， we know you're growing up and have your own ideas.We just want what's best for you.We're sorry if we seem too strict.” Then， my dad added， “We want you to be happy and safe.We know you dream of having a basketball of your own， so we bought one for you.” Realizing how much they truly cared， I felt a sense of warmth and also much regret for my outburst.
After dinner， when we got home， I knew I had to say sorry to them.I took a deep breath， walked up to my parents and said， “Mom， Dad， I'm sorry for the way I acted.I should have listened to you and understood that you were just worried about me.I didn't think about your feelings.” As I said those words， I felt a great weight being lifted off my shoulders.My parents hugged me and said they forgave me.Since then， I have became more aware of how important it is to communicate with them and to appreciate their love for me.
