Paula and her husband have four kids, three pet dogs, and a rabbit. When the house is very noisy, Helen, one of the children, is quietly inventing. A year ago, the 10-year-old had to design an anti-smoking poster for a school project. Rather than a poster, she came up with the idea of creating something that shows the average amount of tar(尼古丁) a smoker collects from just four packs of cigarettes.

“I like people to play with things more than read and write,” she says. So she researched her idea on the Internet, found a company in China that could make it, saved up her pocket money and got her idea made.

Paula says her daughter “thinks differently”: Ideas jump into her mind. After she got sun-burnt on holiday, Helen invented a small plastic bracelet（手镯) that changes color in the sun, telling you when to put on sunscreen. Several sunscreen companies have expressed an interest in the idea. She also came up with an idea to make a ball filled with water to stop the dog from feeling thirsty. “But we didn’t do anything with it,” says Paula.

Then she pulls out a picture of a special fishing rod she has designed. “ There is a camera on the hook, ” she explains, “and the screen is on the handle，and it shows you if you’ve caught a fish or not. ”

Helen doesn’t want to go to university. She keeps her pink-and-cream bedroom tidy. Paula is amazed and a bit confused by her daughter. “Everything has to be in a certain order,” Paula says. “Her brothers and sisters go with the flow, but with Helen, it’s ‘What time will that be happening?’ or ‘Where am I being picked up from today?’ ”

1.From Paragraph 2, we can infer that Helen _______.

A. is not willing to go to school

B. likes to play with her brothers and sisters

C. prefers making something by herself

D. is good at reading and writing

2.What did Helen invent after she got sun-burnt on vacation?

A. The anti-smoking poster

B. The bracelet telling when to put on sunscreen

C. The ball providing water for thirsty dogs

D. The fishing rod telling whether you’ve caught a fish

3.The underlined phrase “go with the flow” probably means “_______”.

A. do what most people usually do

B. set an example to others

C. follow the fashion closely

D. do something differently from others

4.The passage is mainly about _______.

A. how Helen helps people give up smoking

B. a little girl’s dream to be a world-famous inventor

C. a 10-year-old inventor’s story

D. Helen’s relationship with her family members

When Cath Pirret and her husband Iain took their daughters Jessie, 10, and Holly, 7, to Britain earlier this year, it was a trip that was all about showing the girls where their parents grew up. But there were also some key sightseeing opportunities, such as Stonehenge, Hadrian’s Wall and Tate Modern, before heading to Paris to see the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo.

So, what did the couple from Melbourne hope their girls would get from the trip? "A greater understanding that travel is not a difficult thing to do," Cath says."Some of the highlights are to meet new people and adapt to lots of different situations."

Cath believes that children, in order to truly benefit from travel, need to be old enough to understand and appreciate the experience. Sydney-based ABC Radio broadcaster and film critic C.J. Johnson travelled a lot with his parents as a child. His father was "really into rivers" and decided he was going to make it the "family mission" to see the "seven great rivers of the world".

There’s no doubt, thanks to a richer society and the greater ease and access to all forms of travel, that few — if any — generations of parents and children have ever had the ability to journey together as far, as wide and as deep as the present one.Travel brings history to life, builds children’s independence and opens their minds. A child’s view also helps adults to see the world through new eyes.

For Keith Bellows, the award-winning editor-in-chief of the American National Geographic Traveler magazine says the world is simply"the greatest classroom we have". He’s convinced, like Spicer, that any parent willing and financially able to give the gift of travel offers a gift that keeps on giving.

"Children who learn to travel will travel to learn," he says. "And they will do it all their lives."

With that in mind, Bellows, a father of three, wrote a book, 100 Places that Can Change Your Child’s Life.

1.Why did the couple take their daughters to Britain?

A.To prove their parents grew up in a rich country.

B.To meet the friends and relatives in Britain.

C.To help them enjoy their wonderful holidays.

D.To assist them to get benefit from travelling.

2.The couple and their kids 　　 .

A.went to see the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo first

B.visited Hadrian’s Wall and Tate Modern in France

C.first stayed in Britain and then went to France

D.only preferred to have the key sightseeing trips

3.When Johnson was a child, 　　 .

A.he made a decision to see the greatest rivers

B.he fully understood his family mission

C.he was forced to keep his father company

D.he learned a lot and developed a broad outlook

4.Now many children can travel around the world 　　 .

A.because they are lucky to have good parents

B.because they were just born in rich families

C.because they are living in a prosperous society

D.because they are longing for new knowledge

5.We can learn from the passage that 　　 .

A.children who learn to travel will travel to learn

B.Keith Bellows objects to taking children to travel

C.children will purchase gifts for their parents

D.Keith Bellows is managing a famous TV show
