Now lots of parents will buy everything that their children want to have. If they go on with the habit, their children won’t know the money comes from hard work.

Some parents like to hold birthday parties for their children. If they keep on doing this, their children will think it necessary for them to enjoy birthday parties every year. Year after year, maybe they will forget their parents’ birthdays and only remember their own. It is against traditional habits.

Many parents don’t let the children do housework. They think children have only one thing to do. They should study hard and do well in their lessons. If parents go on doing this, the children will only learn to open their mouths to be fed and stretch out their arms to be dressed every day. When the children grow up, they will be able to do nothing , and they won’t even find a job. Parents should teach the children how to do housework because it can help them start good habits of work by themselves.

Coloring is an activity that children worldwide have long enjoyed. With a picture already made for them, kids simply chose a crayon,pencil or marker of their favorite color and fill it in. Today, it also becomes more and more popular among teenagers and even adults, who are enjoying relaxing hours of coloring. In December, five of the top ten best-selling books in the United States were coloring books.

They are fun,but are coloring books good for you?

The good feedback(反馈)from customers is encouraging. Trina Lucida, a popular artist creating coloring books, says that many of her customers are buying the coloring books for others who are sick or going through a hard time. She adds that the "big idea" behind her latest book is to encourage people to do something creative.

Lucida is right,according to Allan Rohan,a psychology(心理学)professor. "Many customers think of coloring books as a new creative stage," he said in an interview,"but what's more important is that people spend time coloring in order to reduce stress after a long day." Research shows that coloring can reduce stress by guiding people to focus on(专注)one simple task. When a person is filling in a flower with a light purple color,he focuses on the flower and forgets about all his troubles in life.

Experts add that coloring may relieve a certain kind of pain. Doing the coloring helps people relax their mind and calm down. Also,coloring helps people's brain in a healthy way. The shape of the drawing makes one side of the brain active, while the color of the drawing improves the other. Coloring can bring out your imagination and take you back to your childhood. Interesting,isn't it?

"It's very relaxing," said Susan Jackson,a big fan of Lucida's coloring books. "Coloring frees my mind. And it's not just to try to fill blank(空白的)pages. The pictures make me happy and there is just something about them. So I'm saving the pictures I like best to the very end."

Do you like games? Do you like playing games with children? Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee(裁判) and hardly trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities can’t be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the decision of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is afraid in life. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in some game, where it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

1. From the passage, we know that ________ when the children play the games

A. they need a referee

B. they care the scores

C. they depend on a lucky chance

D. they care who the winner is

2. What is TRUE about children when they play games?

A. They can stop playing any time they like.

B. They can test their personal abilities.

C. They want to pick a better team.

D. They don’t need rules.

3. A child becomes a leader during the games ________.

A. if he is popular.

B. when it is his turn.

C. when others are afraid of him.

D. if he is confident.

4. One of the reasons that a child likes playing games is that ________.

A. he can be someone other than himself

B. he can become popular among friends

C. he finds he is always lucky in games

D. he likes the place where he plays a game

5.The writer believes that ________.

A. children should make better rules for their games

B. children should invite grown-ups to play with them

C. children can get a lot from the game.

D. children play games without reasons

Children with autism(孤独症) have difficulty with social skills and communication. They often act in limited and repeated ways and have what seem like unusual strong interests.

Autism is more often seen in boys than girls. What causes it is not clear. Scientists are studying DNA and possible environmental influences.

Doctors usually cannot confirm a diagnosis(确诊) of autism until a child is about three years old. Rebecca Landa is a researcher at the Kennedy Krieger Institute. Professor Landa wanted to find out what differences in development might be seen earlier. She led a new study that observed 235 babies between 6 and 36 months of age.

“At six months of age, when you lay your baby on their back and you pull them by the arms gently into a seated place, the baby’s head may nod back behind the shoulders, like poor head control. But that does not mean that the baby is going to have autism. It does mean the baby needs to have some exercises to help their body get stronger. And when the babies strengthen their bodies, they are better able to play with toys and also with people, which will help them have better outcomes.”

By the time a baby is one year old, signs of possible autism include difficulty in using words and not looking eye-to-eye or reaching out to other people. By 14 months, the baby might smile less and use language less. However, Professor Landa says these signs can be very small and their children might be missed during a short health exam.

“It’s important for parents to pay attention to their children’s development, and if they care about a child’s development, they should listen to experts.”

The earlier parents notice delays, she says, the sooner they can begin simple things that may help improve their children’s development. For example, they can talk to the children about what they are doing, give opinions when the children show them something, and play simple games that keep the children’s attention.

1.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. How to Confirm a Diagnosis of Autism

B. Catching the Early Signs of Autism in Babies

C. Ways to Help Children with Autism to Get Better

D. Children with Autism with Difficulty in Communication

2.What can we learn from the third paragraph?

A. Landa tried to find differences in babies’ development earlier.

B. Landa has found ways to confirm a diagnosis of autism.

C. Doctors led a new study to confirm a diagnosis of autism.

D. Doctors helped babies with autism develop without difference.

3.When a baby with signs of autism is 14 months old, he or she may ________.

A. nod the head back behind the shoulders　　 B. have difficulty raising his or her head

C. dislike to communicate with others　　 D. like reaching out to other people
