Children raised in positive environments will have more opportunities to develop confidence and higher self-esteem. Their parents believe in them and their abilities and try to persuade them with the support and examples
they need. Positive-minded parents are in themselves and their own skills. They remain calm and focused during times. This will provide the child with the he/she needs to become the same type of individual ---secure in himself/herself and his/her abilities. In an article titled “Why Positive Parenting?” psychologist Laura Markham states that positive parenting “kids reap the rewards of good behavior—good grades, self-esteem and from peers. It becomes part of their self-image, and they automatically act to that self-image.”
Children with positive parents are more to be motivated to do well in their personal lives and academic environments. Being able to self-direct themselves towards goals will give them the that will push them to excellence. parenting increases children‟s chances of learning how to challenges and reach objectives without coddling. Markham said she believed that love, not physical or force, “becomes a more effective motivator over time.”
A child raised by a parent with a positive attitude has a to become an optimist. According to author of the “The Optimistic Child”, raising children is about identifying and expanding their and virtues and helping them live these positive traits to the A parent‟s goal is to produce well-adjusted, independent children. Positive parenting encourages children to learn how to do activities on their own. Mistakes and become opportunities to develop a stronger character and learn new skills. Positive parents encourage their children to try again when their fail. Their children will learn to the good or the lesson in a difficult event or outcome. Parents who do everything for their children do to them. They send the message they are not good enough, smart enough or turstworthy to take on the tasks themselves.

Last fall, Deanna Jump made headlines when it was announced she‟d brought in a million dollars selling her Macon, Georgia, has no plans to quit the work she considers her calling. She spoke with us about her secrets for creating units that kids and fellow teachers can‟t resist.
How did you get the idea of selling your work online?
Deanna Jump: I‟ve always created my own activities and units, and I‟ve always shared them with my fellow teachers. A few years ago, we were in our weekly team meeting, and one of my team members said, “Your stuff is so good. You‟ve got to put it on Teachers Pay Teachers.” She gave me the link, and I got started. That was 2009. The first year, my sales were really slow. I made about $300. At the time I thought that was great.
How has the income changed your life?
Deanna Jump: We teachers in America don‟t make a whole lot of money, so I really consider it a blessing. I have a brother who‟s a quadriplegic. For about 13 years, he was stuck at home unless he had a doctor‟s appointment. With my first big check, we bought him a van so our mother could take him to the movies and the park. I try to be careful with the money. I gave some to my community. But I still drive a Kia. I still live in the
same house.
What advice would you give fellow teachers who might want to sell their lessons?
Deanna Jump: Stay true to yourself. My teaching style is reflected in my units. I don‟t try to say, “Okay, how would this teacher over here to do it?” and try to create something for her. Also, be a teacher first, and a seller second. Be careful to make sure that you don‟t say, “Oh, my goodness, I haven‟t put anything out for two months. I need to get something out.” I never think like that. But so many people do. I create things with my students in mind.
56. The underlined word “windfall” in Paragraph 1 probably means _________.
A. top secret B. good stuff C. great difficulty D. sudden gain
57. Deanna Jump‟s lessons __________.
A. brought her great fame B. were put online by her colleague
C. sold well as soon as they were put online D. were created with the help of her colleague
58. Deanna Jump will probably share her lesson plan if _________.
A. she is in need of it B. it‟s successful in her classroom
C. it‟s expected to be a good seller D. she adopts a new teaching style
B
When we analyze the salt salinity (盐浓度) of ocean waters, we find that it varies only slightly from place to place. Nevertheless, some of these small changes are important. There are three basic processes that cause a change in oceanic salinity. One of these is the subtraction (减少) of water from the ocean by means of evaporation (蒸发). In this manner, the salinity is increased, since the salt stays behind. If this is carried to the extreme, of course, white salt would be left behind; this, by the way, is how much of the table salt we use is actually obtained.
The opposite of evaporation is precipitation, such as rain, by which water is added to the ocean. Here the ocean is being diluted (稀释) so that the salinity is decreased. This may occur in areas of high rainfall or in coastal regions where rivers flow into the ocean. Thus salinity may be increased by the subtraction of water by evaporation, or decreased by the addition of fresh water by precipitation.
Normally, in hot regions where the sun is very strong, the ocean salinity is somewhat higher than it is in other parts of the world where there is not as much evaporation. Similarly, in coastal regions where rivers dilute the sea, salinity is somewhat lower than in other oceanic areas.
A third process by which salinity may be altered is associated with the formation and melting of sea ice. When seawater is frozen, the dissolved materials are left behind. In this manner, seawater directly beneath freshly formed sea ice has a higher salinity than it did before the ice appeared. Of course, when this ice melts, it will tend to decrease the salinity of the surrounding water.
In the Weddell Sea, the densest water in the ocean is formed as a result of this freezing process, which increases the salinity of cold water. This heavy water sinks and is found in the deeper portion of the oceans of the world.
59. This passage mainly tells us about_______.
A. the analysis of the salinity of ocean waters
B. the causes of the variation in oceanic salinity
C. the importance of the changes in oceanic salinity
D. the different forms of salts in ocean waters
60. It can be known from the passage that increase in the salinity of ocean water is caused by______.
A. melting of sea ice B. precipitation
C. evaporation D. supplement of salt
61. Which of the following is not the cause of the decrease in the oceanic salinity?
A. Precipitation. B. Rain and snow.
C. Formation of ice. D. Addition of water by rivers.
62. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Oceanic salinity has great effect on sea life.
B. Many factors combine to cause changes in oceanic salinity.
C. The movement of the water is related to the amount of salt.
D. The temperature of the water has much to do with the oceanic salinity.
C
Call it the learning paradox: the more you struggle and even fail while you‟re trying to learn new information, the better you‟re likely to recall and apply that information later.
The learning paradox is at the heart of “productive failure,” a phenomenon identified by researcher Manu Kapur points out that while the model adopted by many teachers when introducing students to new knowledge providing lots of structure and guidance early on, until the students show that they can do it on their own makes intuitive sense, it may not be the best way to promote learning. Rather, it‟s better to let the learners wrestle with
the material on their own for a while, refraining from giving them any assistance at the start. In a paper published recently, Kapur applied the principle of productive failure to mathematical problem solving in three schools.
With one group of students, the teacher provided strong “scaffolding”--instructional support and feedback. With the teacher‟s help, these pupils were able to find the answers to their set of problems. Meanwhile, a second group was directed to solve the same problems by collaborating with one another, without any prompts from their instructor. These students weren‟t able to complete the problems correctly. But in the course of trying to do so, they generated a lot of ideas about the nature of the problems and about what potential solutions would look like. And when the two groups were tested on what they‟d learned the second group “significantly outperformed” the first.
The apparent struggles of the floundering (挣扎的) group have what Kapur calls a “hidden efficacy”: they lead people to understand the deep structure of problems, not simply their correct solutions. When these students encounter a new problem of the same type on a test, they‟re able to transfer the knowledge they‟ve gathered more effectively than those who were the passive recipients of someone else‟s expertise.
In the real world, problems rarely come neatly packaged, so being able to discern their deep structure is key. But, Kapur notes, none of us like to fail, no matter how often Silicon Valley entrepreneurs praise the beneficial effects of an idea that fails or a start-up company that crashes and burns. So we need to “design for productive failure” by building it into the learning process, Kapur has identified three conditions that promote this kind of beneficial struggle. First, choose problems to work on that “challenge but do not frustrate.” Second, provide learners with opportunities to explain and elaborate on what they‟re doing. Third, give learners the chance to compare and contrast good and bad solutions to the problems. And to those students who protest this tough-love teaching style: you‟ll thank me later.
63. Why does the author call the learning process a paradox?
A. Pains do not necessarily lead to gains. B. What is learned is rarely applicable in life.
C. Failure more often than not breeds success. D. The more is taught, the less is learned.
64. What does Kapur disapprove of in teaching?
A. Asking students to find and solve problems on their own.
B. Developing students ability to apply what they learn.
C. Giving students detailed guidance and instruction.
D. Allowing students a free hand in problem solving.
65. What do people tend to think of providing strong scaffolding in teaching?
A. It will make teaching easier.
B. It is a sensible way of teaching.
C. It can motivate average students.
D. It will enhance students confidence.
66. What kind of problem should be given to students to solve according to Kapur?{what,,,i,,want,to,,,achieve,,,in,,the,,,next,,,five,,,years作文100字}.
A. It should be able to encourage collaborative learning.
B. It should be easy enough so as not to frustrate students.
C. It should be solvable by average students with ease.
D. It should be difficult enough but still within their reach.
67. What can be expected of this tough-love teaching style?
A. Students will be grateful in the long run.
B. Teachers will meet with a lot of resistance.
C. Parents will think it too harsh on their kids.
D. It may not be able to yield the desired results.

John Blanchard stood up from the bench, straightened his Army uniform, and studied the crowd of people making their way through Grand Central Station. He looked for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didn‟t, the girl with the rose.
His interest in her had begun thirteen months before in a Florida library. Taking a book off the shelf he found himself intrigued, not with the words of the book, but with the notes penciled in the margin. The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind. In the front of the book, he discovered the previous owner‟s name, Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he located her address. She lived in New York City. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond.
The next day he was shipped overseas for service in World War II. During the next year and one month the two grew to know each other through the mail. Each letter was a seed falling on a fertile heart. A romance was starting Blanchard requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn‟t matter what she looked like.
When the day finally came for him to return from Europe, they scheduled their first meeting —7:00 PM at the Grand Central Station in New York. “You‟ll recognize me,” she wrote, “by the red rose I‟ll be wearing on my

A great letter from a great father{what,,,i,,want,to,,,achieve,,,in,,the,,,next,,,five,,,years作文100字}.
Dear Max, your mother and I don’t yet have the words to describe the hope you give us for the future. Your new life is full of promise, and we hope you will be happy and 1___________ ( health ) so you can explore it fully. You’ve already given us a reason to reflect on the world we hope you live in. Like all parents, we want you to grow up in a world better than 2____________ ( we ) today.
While headlines often focus on what’s wrong, in many ways the world is getting better. Health is improving. Poverty is shrinking. Knowledge is growing. People are connecting. Technological progress in every field means your life should be dramatically better than ours today.
We will do our part to make this happen, not only because we love you, but also because we have a moral 3______________ (responsible) to all children in the next generation.
We believe all lives have equal value, and that includes the many more people who will live in future generations than live today. Our society has an obligation to invest now to improve the lives of all those 4__________( come ) into this world, not just those already here.{what,,,i,,want,to,,,achieve,,,in,,the,,,next,,,five,,,years作文100字}.
But right now, we don’t always collectively direct our resources at the biggest opportunities and problems your generation will face. Consider disease. Today we spend about 50 times more as a society treating people who are sick than we invest in research so you won’t get sick in the first place.
Medicine has only been a real science 5________ less than 100 years, and we’ve already seen complete cures for some diseases and good progress for others. As technology accelerates, we have a real shot at preventing, curing or managing all or most of the rest in the next 100 years.
Today, most people die from five things — heart disease, cancer, stroke, neurodegenerative and infectious diseases — and we can make faster progress on these and other problems.
Once we recognize that your generation and your children’s generation may not have to suffer from disease, we collectively have a responsibility to tilt our investments a bit more towards the future to make this reality. Your mother and I want to do our part. 6_________ (cure ) disease will take time. Over short periods of five or ten years, it may not seem like we’re making much of 7________ difference.
But over the long term, seeds 8________ ( plant ) now will grow, and one day, you or your children will see what we can only imagine: a world without suffering from disease. There are so many opportunities just like this. If society focuses more of its energy 9_____ these great challenges, we will leave your generation a much better world.
(对下面一段改错：共有3处错误)
Our hopes for your generation focus on two ideas: advancing human potential and promote equality. Advancing human potential is about pushing the boundaries on what great a human life can be. Can you learn and experience 100 times more than we do today? Can our generation cure disease so you live much longer and healthy lives?
Can we connect the world so you have access to every idea, person and opportunity? Can we harness more clean energy so you can invent things we can’t conceive of today while protecting the environment? Can we cultivate entrepreneurship so you can build any business and solve any challenge to grow peace and prosperity?
Promoting equality is about making sure everyone has access to these opportunities — regardless of the nation, families or circumstances they are 13________(bear) into. Our society must do this not only for justice or charity, but for the greatness of human progress.
Today we are robbed of the potential so many have to offer. The only way to achieve our full potential is to channel the talents, ideas and contributions of every person in the world. Can our generation eliminate poverty and hunger? Can we provide everyone 14__________ basic healthcare? Can we build inclusive and welcoming communities?
Can we nurture peaceful and understanding relationships between people of all nations? Can we 15________ (true) empower everyone — women, children, underrepresented minorities, immigrants and the unconnected? If our generation makes the right investments, the answer to each of these questions can be yes — and hopefully within your lifetime.
This mission — advancing human potential and promoting equality — will require a new approach for all working towards these goals. We must make long term investments over 25, 50 or even 100 years. The greatest challenges require very long time horizons and cannot be solved by short term 16_________ (think).
(对下面一段改错：共有3处错误)
We must engage direct with the people we serve. We can’t empower people if we don’t understand the needs and desire of their communities. We must build technology to make change. Many institutions invest money in these challenges, but most progress came from productivity gains through innovation.
We must participate in policy and advocacy to shape debates. Many institutions are unwilling to do this, but progress must be supported by movements to be sustainable. We must back the 20_____________ (strong) and most independent leaders in each field.
Partnering with experts is more effective for the mission 21_________ trying to lead efforts ourselves. We must take risks today to learn lessons for tomorrow. We’re early in our learning and many things we try won’t work, but we’ll listen and learn and keep improving.
Our experience with personalized learning, internet access, and community education and health has shaped our philosophy. Our generation grew up in classrooms 22___________ we all learned the same things at the same pace regardless of our interests or needs. Your generation will set goals for what you want to become — like an engineer, health worker, writer or community leader.
You’ll have technology that understands how you learn best and23 __________ you need to focus. You’ll advance quickly in subjects that interest you most, and get as much help as you need in your most challenging areas. You’ll explore topics that aren’t even offered in schools today. Your teachers will also have better tools and data to help you achieve your goals.
Even better, students around the world will be able to use personalized learning tools over the internet, even if they don’t live near good schools. Of course it will take more than technology to give everyone a fair start in life, but personalized learning can be one scalable way to give all children a 24_______ ( good ) education and more equal opportunity.
(对下面一段改错：共有3处错误)
We’re starting to build this technology now, and the results are already promising. Not only students perform better on tests, but they gain the skills and confidence to learn anything which they want. And this journey is just beginning. The technology and teaching will rapid improve every year you’re in school.
Your mother and I have both taught students and we’ve seen 28_________ it takes to make this work. It will take working with the strongest leaders in education to help schools around the world adopt personalized learning.
It will take engaging with communities, which is why we’re starting in our San Francisco Bay Area community. It will take building new technology and trying new ideas. And it will take making mistakes and 29_________ (learn) many lessons before achieving these goals.
But once we understand the world we can create for your generation, we have a responsibility as a society to focus our investments on the future to make this reality. Together, we can do this. And when we do, personalized learning will not only help students in good schools, it will help provide more equal opportunity to anyone 30 _____ an internet connection.
Many of the greatest opportunities for your generation will come from giving everyone access to the internet. People often think of the internet as just for entertainment or 31________________(communicate). But for the majority of people in the world, the internet can be a lifeline.
It provides education if you don’t live near a good school. It provides health information on how to avoid diseases or raise healthy children if you don’t live near a doctor. It provides 32__________(finance) services if you don’t live near a bank. It provides access to jobs and opportunities if you don’t live in a good economy.
The internet is 33__________ important that for every 10 people who gain internet access, about one person is lifted out of poverty and about one new job is created. Yet still more than half of the world’s population — more than 4 billion people — don’t have access to the internet.
(对下面两段改错：各有1处错误)
If our generation connects them, we can lift hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. We can also help hundreds of millions of children getting an education and save millions of lives by helping people avoid disease.
This is another long term effort that can be advanced by technology and part
