A
Chinese New Year is approaching and preparations are underway around the world. Here are some Chinatowns for those outside of China wishing to mark the day.
London
Although it may not be as large or as long-built as others, having only become a center for the Chinese community during the 1950s, London’s Chinatown is a perfectly formed little firework that knows how to see in the year with a bang. Decorated with red lanterns (灯笼), previous years have seen shows with acrobatics (杂技), martial arts (武术), dance and opera nearby.
San Francisco
San Francisco’s Chinatown is perhaps the most famous in the United States. The city was the main entry-point for Chinese who had crossed the Pacific to the USA during the early 19th century. Between the Grant Avenue and the Stockton Street, this historic area is a local treasure, attracting more visitors per year than the Golden Gate Bridge.
Bangkok
With an about 100-year-old history, the Thai capital’s Chinatown contains complex streets offering all kinds of tasty treats, clothes, toys and antiques. Sunday market days are such a good time to get the full atmosphere of the neighborhood. The area is also known for its gold dealers, whose shops line the road.
Mauritius
Found in Port Louis, this Mauritian Chinatown shows the island nation’s rich multicultural diversity. Established in the early years of the 20th century by settlers from China, its tiny shops and restaurants serve locals and visitors. During 教育配套资料K12

It is not only praise or punishment that determines a child’s level of confidence. There are some other important ways we shape our kids----particularly by giving instructions and commands in a negative or positive choice of words. For example, we can say to a child “Don’t run into traffic!” or “Stay on the footpath close to me.” In using the latter, you will be helping your kids to think and act positively, and to feel competent in a wide range of situations, because they know what to do, and aren’t scaring themselves about what not to do.
Actually, it is all in the way the human mind works. What we think, we automatically rehearse (预演). For example, if someone offered you a million dollars not to think of a blue monkey for two minutes, you wouldn’t be able to do it. When a child is told “Don’t fall off the tree,” he will think of two things: “don’t” and “fall off the tree”. That is, he will automatically create the picture of falling off the tree in his mind. A child who is vividly imagining falling off the tree is much more likely to fall off. So it is far better to use “Hold on to the tree carefully.”

Clear, positive instructions help kids to understand the right way to do things. Kids do not always know how to be safe, or how to react to the warning of the danger in negative words. So parents should make their commands positive. “Sam, hold on firm to the side of the boat” is much more useful than “Don’t you dare to fall out of the boat” or worse still “How do you think I’ll feel if you drown” The changes are small but the difference is obvious.
Children learn how to guide and organize themselves from the way we guide them with our words, so it pays to be positive.
4. Positive choice of words helps kids to __________. A. do things carefully B. build up their confidence C. improve their imagination D. learn in different situations 5. What can we infer from Paragraph 2_________ A. A child will act on what is instructed B. One can’t help imagining what is heard.
C. A child will fall off the tree when told not to. D. One won’t think of a blue monkey when given money. 6. Which of the following commands helps kids to be safe A. Fasten your seat belt. B. Don’t play by the lake. C. How do you think I’ll feel if you get hurt D. Don’t you dare to walk through the red light 7. The main idea of the passage is that __________.
A. praise makes kids confident B. right instructions keep kids safe C. clear commands make kids different D. positive instructions guide kids
C Dormitory management officials in universities say that lately they are noticing something different:students seem to lack the will and skill to address their ordinary conflicts. “We have students who are mad at each other and they text each other in the same room,” says a teacher. “So many of our roommate conflicts are because kids don’t know how to negotiate.”(协商）
And as many psychologists will tell you, bottled emotions lead to silent unhappiness that can boil over into frustration and anger. “ At Florida University，教育配套资料K12

emotional outbreaks occur about once a week，” the dormitory director says. “It used to be: ‘ Let’s sit down and talk about it,’” he says. “Recently，roommate conflicts have increased. The students don’t have the person-to-person discussions and they don’t know how to handle them.” The problem is most impressive among freshmen; dormitory officials say some students even never seem to catch on till graduation, and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college.
Administrators suppose that relying on cell phones and the Internet may have made it easier for young people to avoid uncomfortable meetings. Why express anger in person when you can do it in a text? Facebook makes the situation worse as complaints go public. “Things are posted on someone’s wall on Facebook:‘Oh,my roommate kept me up all night studying,”’ says Dana Pysz,an assistant director in the housing office at California University. ‘‘ It’s a different way to express their conflicts to each other. ” In recent group discussions at North Carolina State University, students said they would not even accuse the noisy neighbors on their floor face to face.
Administrators also point to parents who have fixed their children’s problems in their entire lives. Now in college, the children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts. Would these parents continue to take care of everything on campus? 8. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. To greet someone with a tide or name. B. To start trying to solve a problem. C. To put an address on an envelope. D. To make a formal speech. 9. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Students handled it directly when they were in conflict.
B. Parents are the main factor to make their children lose the skills. C. Cellphones are to blame in the students’ conflicts in their dormitories. D. Unhappy and cornered emotions resulted in quarrels between students once a week. 10. What do we learn from the group discussions at North Carolina State University?
A. Students are always angry with each other. B. Students have to bear noises from neighbors. C. Students may be not good at negotiating in person.
