I was completely shocked by what I was learning: praise is not good for kids. How could that be? So I spent years talking w

20、ith experts, reading about the effects of praise, and finally decided to close the door on praise and focus on building an encouraging family. Even today, with many studies available to parents, I still hear people say, “How can that be? How can saying Good job or Youre smart be bad?” I understand.

21、It can be a difficult habit to break. If we tell a boy “You are smart!” when he brings home an A in his math test, how does he feel when he comes home with a D? If weve told him that he is smart, then he will more likely feel a failure when he struggles with homework“Im supposed to be smart. Why can

22、t I do this?” Praise trains children to depend on constant feedback on what a “great job” they are doing. This dependency damages childrens confidence. Praise trains children to ask, “Do you like it?” “Did I do a good job?” They begin to believe that what others think is more important than what the

23、y think about their achievements and mistakes. Praise breaks the relationship between parents and children. Without even realizing it, parents may be using praise as a tool to direct the childs behavior. The message is clear I approve of you when you . and I dont approve of you when you . Living wit

24、h this kind of constant judgment damages the relationship. The solution to the problem of praise is encouragement. Encouragement can be given at any time, to anyone, in any situation. It is a comment, an acknowledgment, a statement that focuses on effort, improvement or choice. Hearing “You are smar

25、t!” can leave a child at a loss when they dont do well. Using “That took a lot of work to come home with an A in your test ” gives a child the chance to be something else.24. What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs? A. Many parents cant get on well with their children. B. The author never

26、 shows any approval to his children. C. The author spent 25 years changing peoples opinion on praise. D. Its hard for many parents to believe praise is harmful.25. According to the passage, it seems that parents praise . A. can lead to childrens being smart B. helps them get along well with their ch

27、ildren C. is a good tool to educate their children D. might have just the opposite effect 26. Which of the following is a good example of encouragement? A. You didnt think you could finish on time, but you did. B. You are the best artist I have ever seen. C. You have a problem and you have to fix it

28、. D. You are very good at math.27. What can be the best title for the passage? A. A study on praise and encouragement B. Mind your words when praising your children C. Replace praise with your encouragement D. The difference between praise and encouragementC Seventy-three-year-old George McNeilon se

29、lected his food in Value Mart very carefully. After leaving the cashier, he calculated that he had saved 80 cents and thought that he had got good value for his money again. At the exit, the chilly wind reminded him of his gloves. “Where are they?” He searched here and there, but nowhere could he fi

30、nd them. George was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. It was obvious that they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store. George bought the gloves at a 25% discount, for just $30, ten years ago. They were genuine lambskin (小羊皮). Until then, he had worn cheaper ones that las

31、ted no more than three years. His impulsive decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year. He enjoyed being envied. Bad luck, George thought, to lose his gloves

32、on New Years Eve. He, calm on the outside but frantic in the inside, reentered the store. Several minutes of search turned out to be in vain. “Society has changed. People have changed he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if people picked up something lost, they would give it back.” Back home, George

33、was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. After the holiday, George decided to buy another pair of leather gloves. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office. “

34、What color are they?” the woman in the office asked. “Black,” he answered. She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of mens leather gloves. “Are they?” “Yes! Those are mine!”28. What is the most probable reason for Georges shopping? A. To kill time in Value Mart as usual. B. To prove how wise

35、he was with money. C. To prepare for the coming New Year. D. To see whether there were gloves on sale.29. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “frantic” in Para. 4? A. Ashamed. B. Anxious. C. Afraid. D. Angry.30. What do we know about old George McNeilon? A. Economical but vai

36、n. B. Clever but simple. C. Pure but impolite. D. Warmhearted but poor.31. What can be inferred from the passage? A. In daily life, accidents will happen. B. A penny saved is a penny earned. C. Never ever jump to conclusions. D. A loss may turn out to be a gain.D The sharing economy, represented by

37、companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have overlooked the reality that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law. Airbnb is an Internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for shor

38、t stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride requests with their own cars. There are hundreds of other such services. The good thing about the sharing economy is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments

39、with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests a place to stay at prices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are competitive with standard taxi prices and their drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy. B

40、ut the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and states both tax and regulate hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax income. But many of Airbnbs customers are not paying the taxes required under the law. Airbnb can als

41、o raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected to ensure that they are not fire traps and that they dont form other risks for visitors. Airbnb hosts face no such inspections. Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes and regulations,

42、the company is simply promoting thefts. Others in the economy will lose by bearing an additional tax burden or being forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors. The same story may apply with Uber. Uber is currently in disputes over whether its cars meet the

43、 safety and insurance requirements imposed on standard taxis. Also, if Uber and related services flood the market, they could harm all taxi drivers ability to earn a minimum wage. This downside of the sharing needs to be taken seriously, but that doesnt mean the current tax and regulatory structure

44、is perfect.32. What is the positive thing about the sharing economy? A. It is a global trend. B. It is beyond regulations. C. It brings in modest profits. D. It takes advantage of spare resources. 33. What is the problem with Airbnb customers according to the passage? A. They can be noisy to hosts n

45、eighbours. B. They are likely to commit thefts. C. They are allowed not to pay taxes. D. They are not regularly inspected.34. What is the argument over Uber according to the passage？ A. Whether it provides reliable services. B. Whether it guarantees customers safety. C. Whether it lowers customers e

46、xpenses. D. Whether it can compete with standard taxis.35. What will be talked about in the following paragraphs? A. Existing regulations and laws. B. Further development of Airbnb and Uber. C. Necessary improvements of current laws. D. More downsides of Airbnb and Uber.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容

47、，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Americans are obsessed (着迷的) with telling their life stories. This phenomenon isnt simply the product of the technological world. 36 . People are eager to tell stories and are fascinated by those of others. Even at preschool, “sharing time” is a common Monday-morn

48、ing activity where the teenagers will sit in a circle and take turns telling a story about something they did over the weekend. 37 . In many Asian countries, talking about and drawing attention to oneself can be seen as socially inappropriate. People are often unwilling to share their life stories a

49、nd do not encourage others to do so. But there are also times when Asians do share their stories. 38 . Asians believe that a person is largely decided by his or her social status and relationships, leaving little reason to broadcast detailed and revealing personal stories to establish a unique self.

50、 Ironically, the more unique Americans strive to be, the greater their need to feel connected with others. In their culture of individuality, relationships are highly mobile and can be easily formed or dissolved(破裂). Sharing personal stories brings them closer through the exchange of thoughts, feeli

51、ngs and desires. 39 . But this motivation is not nearly as strong among Asians, for whom social relations are generally unconditional, obligatory(义不容辞的) and stable, and therefore require little maintenance(维护). 40 . American parents encourage children to share their stories and create opportunities

52、to re-experience the past with children. Asian parents, by contrast, engage their children in telling personal stories less frequently. When they do talk about a childs experiences, they are not particularly concerned with parent-child bonding but tend to focus on disciplining the child.A. It helps

53、them shape their “selves” and makes them who they are.B. They tend to focus more on outer facts than personal details.C. Talking about personal stories is to cheer people on with positive feelings.D. It connects them like many different points, holding their society together. E. Sharing personal sto

54、ries is also an essential part in everyday conversations.F. Parents in America and Asia differ in how they share memories with children. G. Interestingly, this obsession is not necessarily shared in other cultures.第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填
