Only a Ribbon
In one of the London hospitals，a short time ago，there was a young doctor. He noticed one of the patients，a ten-year-old poor girl called katie，who had a very painful illness.
Katie lay in her bed，day after day，with nothing to help her forget her pain and cheer up. One day the doctor noticed her trying to make a doll of her finger, and speaking to it. But she was soon tired of it，and lay back into her bed. That afternoon，the young doctor saw a beautiful ribbon in a shop window. He thought that it might help cheer the little girl up，so he went in and bought it for her. When he handed the ribbon to the girl，she was too surprised to
speak. There were tears in her eyes. This little gift made her feel rich and happy.
The nurse later told the doctor that the girl played with the ribbon all day long. She twisted（盘绕）it round her head. She held it in her hand while she slept.
Some weeks later，Katie's illness became worse，and it was necessary to perform a dangerous operation. When Katie was brought into the operation mom，she cried out for the young doctor. He was brought，and he held one of the girl's hands，while the other tightly held the ribbon.

Telecommuting For most people，a usual workday means waking up，eating breakfast，driving to the office，working for about 8 hours and then driving back home. But not all workers have this experience. Many people work from thei rhomes。This kind of work is called
telecommuting or telework. A person who telecomutes is called a telecommuter.
People have worked in their homes for thousands of years. But the modern idea of telecommuting started in the early 1970s. Improvements in technology，especially networking technology，helped support the development of telework. As
communication technology became cheaper and more powerful，telecommuting became more of a choice for workers.
Both companies and individuals（个人）can benefit from telework. One benefit for companies is that it can save money. It can also help improve morale． This is because workers who have choices about how they work are often happier. If workers are happier, they are likely to do better jobs. This is good for the company. As for individuals，they can save money by cutting down their transportation costs. They also save time because they do not have to go to the office every day. Depending on how often they work from home，telecommuters can save between 15 and 25 workdays every year.
Even though there are many benefits to telework，there are also some
disadvantages. Managers are worried about losing control of the workers. If the worker is not in the office，managers don't know what they are doing. Telework can also be bad for a person's working life. Managers are more likely to give a promotion（升职） to workers that they see every day，so telecommuters have less chance of getting promoted than regular workers. As telecommuters often work alone，another bad effect of telecommuting is separation from other people.
Telecommuting has a place in the society today. Helped by more powerfu technologies，teleworkers of the future will be able to communicate in new and improved ways. This will make telework better and make sure that it will have a more important place in the future.
49. What does telecommuting mean?
A. Driving to work. B. Working from home.
C. Working in an office. D. Working for 8 hours a day. 50. What does the underlined word “morale\ probably mean?
A. Health. B. Abilities. C. Spirits. D. Wealth. 51．What's one of the disadvantages of telecommuting?
A. It makes a worker unfit and upset.
B. It makes a worker uninterested in his job.
C. It makes a worker have less chance of promotion. D. It makes a worker have worse control of his time. 52. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Telework will get improved in the future. B. Telework has a history of hundreds of years. C. Teleworkers work for more days every year.
D. Teleworkers are good at communicating with others. D Managing Stress
Many of us experience stress in life，so do the kids.“It's the hardest time of life，”says Kim“Tip”Frank，writer of Battling the Blues，Grades 3-8; The Handbook for Helping Children and Teens With Depression.“Kids need direction and confidence.”Here are some common complaints of overstressed middle schoolers and what parents can do to help. \I don't have any friends.”
First，tell your child that she'll get through this difficult period.“There will be times when you are alone，” Frank says.“Being alone is better than changing who you are to fit in with the popular crowd．”
Some kids need more clear instruction on how to make friends. Parents can help by having a discussion with their child about what a real friend is. Ask your child what qualities（品质）he wants in a friend. Then you help him find some possible friends. Remind your child that not all friendships work out and talk to him about how to be a good friend.
“My best friend doesn't like me any more.”
It's common for best friends to separate during middle school. When it happens， it's painful and makes your child feel left behind.
“To help your child deal with this problem，first encourage her to make it clear to her friend that she wants to keep the friendship going，”Frank says. Then，remind her that if her friend chooses to end the friendship，it's out of her control.“You can only control one side of the relationship，”he says.
Talk to your child about why friends move on or pull away. Tell your child she will make new friends. It hurts，but it often ends叩working out for the best for both children.
“I made a mistake！I'm a failure！”
Teachers see a lot of perfectionism in today's kids. These kids get upset if they get a B on a paper. They are often overatressed.
“Perfectionist kids are often driven by parents.”As a parent，see whether you are pushing your child to feel like she can't make a single mistake. Do you talk about top schools every day? Do you make a huge deal out of a grade that isn't an A?“You can ask your child，‘Why do you think you have to get straight A's?”，Frank says.
There's more to life. Parents can offer their children opportunities to have fun.
“Model hard work，relaxation，laughter，and joy，”he says.“It's not what you say to kids，it's how you live.”
53. When a boy doesn't have any friends，what should his parents do?
A. Find a popular crowd for him. B. Direct him to make some friends.. C. Encourage him to change himself.
D. Tell him the importance of being alone.
54. What does Frank think of separation between friends in middle school? A. It's normal and unavoidable
B. It's painful and really bad for children. C. It means they don't value their friendship. D. It means their friendship isn't deep enough.
55. What suggestion does the writer give to the parents of perfectionist children? A. Choosing top schools for their children.
B. Doing something enjoyable with their children. C. Preventing their children from making mistakes. D. Offering a lot of help with their children's study.

The Lost Dog
One very cold Saturday in January，I was told to take our dog out for a walk，but it was so cold that I didn't want to go outside. Instead，I just opened the door and let the dog out by himself.
However，another neighborhood dog quickly ran past our house，and our dog sped after to catch him. 56 . Unfortunately, it was too late, and my dog was gone. I walked a few blocks，but I was unable to find him.
Sadly，I returned home. I told my mother what had happened and I said，“I thought he would be able to come back by himself.”
My mother was very angry. 57 . The signs read，“Lost：A big black dog. Please call us right away.”and she printed our phone number on the bottom
I posted the signs along the streets around. The whole time，I was very sad and worried about our dog. 58 . I continued looking for our dog in the neighborhood， but I didn't see him anywhere. I called out his name， looking in all the backstreets. I got more and more upset All I wanted was to stay warm，but now I was very cold- and so was my dog.
Finally，I gave up. 59 “Our dog came back home by himself. So，you were right-he did come back-but you were wrong，too. You should have been more responsible this morning.”She said.
“Yes，I was wrong.”I said in shame.
60 . What seems easy at first may turn out to be difficult in the end.
