9、with their 2-year-old son?A.32.B.20.C.40.D.48.BTwenty-five years ago, as a parent educator, I began reading about the dangers of praise. I was completely shocked by what I was learning: praise is not good for kids. How could that be? So I spent years talking with experts, reading about the effects o
10、f 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. It can be a difficult habit to break.If w
11、e 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 cant I do this?”Praise trains children to dep
12、end 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 they think about their achievements and mistak
13、es.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 with this kind of constant judgment damages the
14、 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 smart!” can leave a child at a loss when they don
15、t 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 shows any approval to his children.C.The author s

After leaving the cashier, he calcul
19、ated 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 find them. George was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. It was obvi
20、ous 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 lasted no more than three years. His impulsive decision to buy the expensive gloves tur
21、ned 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 on New Years Eve. He, calm on the outside but frantic in the inside, reentered the st
22、ore. 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 was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves.After
23、 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.“What color are they?” the woman in the office asked.“Black,” he answered.She looked into
24、 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 he was with money.C.To prepare for the coming New Year.D.To see whether there were gloves on sale

26、ly 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.DThe sharing economy, represented by companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have overlooked the reality that this new business
27、 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 short stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride requests with their own cars. There are hu
28、ndreds 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 with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests a place to stay at prices that are often f
29、ar 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.But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and states both tax and regulate hotels, and the t
30、ourists 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 also raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected to ensure that they are not
31、 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, 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 safety and insurance requirements imposed on standard taxis. Also, if Uber and related serv
