Kids are natural scientists. That may be why they ask so many questions.

Younger kids take up science and math with amazing enthusiasm，yet as they get older they often lose their excitement. Children look on scientific exploration as play，but as they get older they start to connect it with big heavy books，long worksheets and a lot of really confusing words.

What a tragedy！We had their attention，they were listening，they were participating，they were learning and then we lost it to boredom.

We need our kids to play more. More play brings up basic scientific concepts(概念)．Being familiar with basic scientific concepts brings about exploration which leads to research. Once they are researching，they are completely into the learning.

My boys built a small 9­hole golf course next to our driveway one day. It was a great product of science. They dug out the holes and channels to guide the golf ball. They played with architecture(建筑学)with a series of pipes they had found in the garage. They tested speed and momentum(动量)by creating one of the holes across the driveway. They experienced biology when deciding which front yard plants could be used as a part of the course and which needed to be pulled up.

If I had sent them out to the yard to build a 9­hole golf course，it would have never happened. It was because it was their idea that it worked. I try to tell them some of the concepts after the fact. When they ask about something，I try to relate it back to something they have built，experienced，or felt. I try to give them a vocabulary around what they already know.

An afternoon can change the way kids look at the world. Not bad for a day of play.

1.What can we learn about kids' attitudes towards science from the first three paragraphs?

A. Kids think they are born to work as scientists.

B. Younger kids begin to learn science on purpose.

C. Older kids often link science with boring things.

D. Children's taking an interest in science is a tragedy.

2.By building the small golf course，the writer's boys learnt about all of the following things EXCEPT________.

A. speed　　 B. momentum

C. biology　　 D. agriculture

3.If the writer had forced the boys to build a small golf course，they might have _______.

A. asked her some related scientific concepts

B. made a better golf course than the one they had built

C. asked their friends to help them with the work

D. got bored and refused to follow the writer's directions

4.In which part of a newspaper is the article probably included?

A. Architecture.　　 B. Education.

C. Health.　　 D. Sports.

Why do people work? Of course, you may have asked yourself the same question as why you have to work. “Self-interest” in its broadest sense, including the interests of family and friends, is a basic motivation（动力）for work in all societies. But self-interest includes more than providing for living or getting wealth that people usually think. For example, a sense of duty, a feeling of competing, and a pleasure in working are other reasons for working. Studies show that most of Americans would continue to work even if they have had enough money to live comfortably.

When people work, they gain a contributing place in society. The fact that what they receive pay for their work means that what they do is needed by other people and what they are doing is necessary to society. Work can also place people in the larger class of society and provide all kinds of identities (身份) for them. In the United States, it is a cruel public fact that to do nothing is to be nothing and to do little is to be little. Work is commonly seen as the measure of an individual (个人).

Some scientists have shown some of the ways that work has effect on our lives. Generally, people who always do their favorite work are more open to new ideas and easier to get along with others, and as parents they pass these characteristics on to their children. Our work then is an important social thing that makes us know who and what we are.

64. Generally, people work for _____.

A. self-interest      B. family       C. earning a living               D. the country

65. In the passage, “what they receive pay for their work” means _____.

A. that the work of the worker is recognized by society

B. what they do is needed by other people

C. that they are a necessary part of the social class

D. That the workers are clever

66. In the last paragraph, we can conclude that the author thinks ____.

A. that work can make the worker rich

B. that work can affect their lives

C. that work can make the worker tired

D. that work can make the worker know the world well

67. The title of the passage is “______”.

A. The Identity and the Work   B. The Work and the Society

C. The Society and Individual   D. The Importance of Work

Many years ago my student asked me the question, "Mrs. Kindred, why do you teach?" Without taking time to reflect, I answered, "Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life." Even though I was sincere, that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide.

"Let me get this straight," he said, "You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?" He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused. I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift.

Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach:

It's in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled(逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.

Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore. You can't have ripples without a "stone." Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and that's what I strive to do.

I genuinely love teenagers.

I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes(坑) on the road of life, I want to do so. If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too.

Teaching isn't for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.

1.Why did the student continue to ask the question about the writer’s being a teacher?

A. Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.

B. Because the writer was insincere.

C. Because the student was naughty.

D. Because the answer was difficult to understand.

2.What do you think of the writer?

A. Stupid.　　 B. Honest.

C. Conservative(保守的).　　 D. Polite.

3.According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?

A. The writer’s mother has the greatest influence on her.

B. The writer’s answer made the student confused.

C. In the writer’s opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.

D. The writer annoyed the student who asked the question.

4.We can infer from the text that _________.

A. the writer was also a good teacher in school

B. the writer often plays with her students beside a pond

C. the writer devotes herself to teaching and her students

D. the writer often accompanies the students on their way home

5.What’s the main idea of the text?

A. A student’s silly question.

B. A good teacher who likes students.

C. A confused student.

D. The reason why I teach.
