When we talked about the upcoming start of school, Seth hadn`t expressed anything but excitement. So when the sunny and promising “big day〞 arrived, he was ready. He was armed with a cool haircut, wearing his prized shoes, and was ready for the action.

Ten minutes before the bus was to arrive, he asked me to take him in my car. I complained about it being at the last minute. I said “no〞 at first. He begged me again and I finally agreed.

In the car , I secretly had a look at him through the rearivew mirror(后视镜). He looked sad. “What is the matter, honey?〞 “I am nervous. I don`t know if I will be able to learn everything in the first grade. What if I can`t pay attention in class?〞

My heart melted. I remembered being nervous on the first day of school and I thought I was the only student who felt that way. I was a nervous kid full of self-doubt. Seth behaved much better than I did. We walked into his school together. He remembered where his new classroom was and recognized his teacher from the ice cream social party they had the day before. He sat down at his desk and chatted with a few of his classmates. He took a few photos of them (with a camera phone because I didn`t allow him to bring the real camera) and then he said in a very serious manner, “Mom, you can go home now. I`ll be OK.〞 And so he was.

Giving some time for children will play an important role in their development. Therefore, it is a must for parents to spend time with children. Here are some tips for parents which will help them spend time with their little wonder. Having Dinner with Children

Even if you are not there at home for a whole day, you should make sure that you have dinner with your children. Moreover, you should make it a point that you are having dinner with your entire family. Also, you should avoid watching TV when you are having dinner with your family. Helping Child Comlete Homework

Helping your child complete homework will help you know how he/she is at studies. It is not that you have to spend hours regularly helping your child with homework. But, sometimes you can help your child solve some questions. In this way, you will get to spend time with your child as well as get to know about his or her studies. Fun Activities

Commander was my parents` cat but I knew him first. In fact, Commander was my college roommate`s cat. My roommate wanted to sell Commander, but no one would buy him. I called my parents to see if they would like to adopt him. My mom had always loved cats but my dad disliked cats very much. As predicted my dad said, “No way. No cats〞 Fortunately for me, my dad was out of town at a math conference. So I brought Commander home. By the time he returned, both my mom and Commander had decided that Commander was going to stay.

My mom said that Commander was going to live at our house for a “trial period〞 while we looked for a buyer. As the months went by there was absolutely no effort to sell Commander and it became clear to my dad that Commander was there to stay. Commander started sitting by my dad as he read the newspaper and slowly my dad began to like Commander---just a little bit.

By the time I came home that summer, I was surprised to see my dad carrying Commander around the house. Over the years, my parents` love for Commander grew to the point where they could not imagine life without him.

Once I finished college, my parents built their dream house and they named the floor plan〔平面图〕 The Commander! They worked with the

architect to design the house so that it was perfectly suited both for them and for Commander.

Commander died at the age of eighteen. My mom still talks about him often and misses him, and so does my dad, which proves that not even

the most determined cat-hating human being in the world can resist the

charms(魅力)of a cat once the cat decides he is moving in to your heart.

You may think your bathroom is often full of bacteria(细菌) and so you give it a complete cleaning once a week. But how often do you clean out and disinfect(消毒) your fridge? Well, probably not often enough, according to a recent study, which found out that the fridge is the

second dirtiest place in your house, just behind the bathroom.

Fridge temperatures were often set too high, allowing the growth of

bacteria, which included E.coil, Enterobacteria, and S. aureus, all of

which will give you an easy access to food poisoning. So what can you

do to ensure your fridge---and your food in it---is not a health threat?For starters, clean the fridge weekly---wipe it and repeat.

Make sure your fridge is at the correct temperature for storing food,

between 0 and 5 degrees centigrade. Your freezer should be below-18

degrees centigrade. You can use fridge and freezer thermeters to make

sure this is the case.

Some modern fridges have zones to store different types of food ,such as meat and vegetables. Make sure you don`t store meat in the vegetable zone, as the temperature there might be higher.

Make sure you don not leave the door open too long as the temperature in the fridge will quickly rise, creating a breeding(繁殖) ground for bacteria.

Cover food that has not been finished, and eat it within a couple of days.

Keep bottles and jars closed.

Keep raw meat away from cooked meat. Both should be well covered to prevent pollution.

Store raw meat at the bottom of the fridge to stop juices dripping onto other foods.

Finally, use common sense, and throw away old food. 33.What do we know from the first paragraph?

A. People often clean their fridges once a week.

B. A recent study shows the bathroom is the dirtiest place in the house. C. Many people don`t believe that the fridge is a dirty place. D.

The fridge may not have as many bacteria as the bathroom.

34.Which is the best temperature for storing your food in the fridge? A.10ºC B.-2 ºC C.4 ºC D.-18 ºC 35.The purpose of this text is to________.

A． introduce some common knowledge about fridges B. teach people how to fix their fridges

C．

guide people to store food properly in their fridges

D． let people know how to keep their fridges clean 第二节〔共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分〕

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

You Need the Right College

What`s out there? How can you learn all of America`s colleges? How do you find the best match---the best college for you? Big or small, private or public? 36 .Researchers are necessary for making a good college decision. 37 . Don`t easily believe what others say, such as “Someone told me that Colorado College is too small〞 and “Someone told me that Michigan is too big.〞 Every college has something for someone. 38 . It does not mean it will be a good place for you just because you have heard the name of a college. It doen`t mean that you will not like it just because you have not heard the name of a college. 39 .That means in these colleges you can fit in with the other students, find the level of education you need and feel good on campus. Researching the colleges means finding several college where you really want to go.

One quick way to research the colleges is to take a tour of the colleges on your computer. 40 . Check out the hundreds of colleges on these two websites. When you find one that sounds like a place you would like to go to, check out its website and learn more. Make a list of 20 colleges and then choose a short list of 10.
