         With     2   interest we would watch the money becoming less and less. At last Papa would ask, "Is all?"
    When Mama nodded, we could relax a little. For Mama would look up and smile, "Is good," she'd say,

         You need 3D glasses to see some films. I think it is easy to make your own 3D glasses instead of buying
    them.
          There are two ways to make 3D glasses. You can decide which way would be easier for you.
          The first way seems like the cheaper way but the things needed to make the glasses this way may not be
    things laying around the house. First print out a template(模板) for the glasses at
    http://paperproject. org/ PDF files/3 dglasses. pdf. 
         After you cut out the template, cut your cellophane (玻璃纸) to fit the holes in the glasses. Make sure you
    place the red cellophane on the left eye and the blue on the right. You can either stick or tape the cellophane in
    place. You are now ready to use your glasses.
         To leam more about why your eyes see different colors, read this article:
    http:// nzphoto. tripod. com/sterea/anaglyphs. htm#redcyan.
         To learn some more cool things about your eyes, check out the games at this link:
    http_://faculty. washington. edu/chudler/chvision. html.
         Another way you can make 3D glasses is to find an old pair of sunglasses. Take out the lenses(镜片).
    Get a piece of clear plastic and place the lenses on it, draw a line around the lens and then cut the new
    plastic lens out. Place the lens back into the sunglasses frame (框). Color the left lens red with a marker

          Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money,
    parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia.
    They also want their children to take extra- course (额外课程) activities where they will either leam music or
    dance,or other classes that will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an
    education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor
    couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.
          However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually
    very cheap. Parents can see that their children's skills are different, maybe skilled in some areas while poor in
    others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today's children are in need of self-respect and
    self-confidence. The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take tests and how to
    study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and
    clever.
          Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.
          Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking requires
    patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking,
    so he will leam to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give
    him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.
          Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him
    curious (好奇的) and have interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might
    become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather
    to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.
    1. Most Chinese parents don't realize ____.
    A. how much the best education is worth
    B. when children should be educated
    C. what children really need in later life
    D. why school tests don't satisfy children
    2. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
    A. Leaming to think is very important.
    B. Interest is necessary for everything.
    C. Broken things are useful for children.
    D. Using hands helps improve thinking ability.
    3. The writer's attitude to children's education is that ____.
    A. the cheaper an education is, the better it is
    B. children today should leam different skills
    C. practical skills are helpful to children's growth
    D. school education can't meet parents' expectations

        Studies have shown it takes a doctor about 18 seconds to stop a patient after he begins talking. 
        It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see. I came close to her room in a hurry and stood at the doorway.
    She was an older woman, sitting at the edge of the bed, trying to put socks on her swollen(肿大的) feet. I
    spoke quickly to the nurse, saw her chart saying she was in stable(稳定的) condition. I was almost in the
    clear. 
       She asked if I could help put on her socks. Instead, I began a long speech that went something like this:
    " How are you feeling? Your blood sugar and blood pressure (血压)were high but they're better today. The
    nurse said you can't wait to see your son who's visiting you today. It's nice to have a family visit from far
    away. I'm sure you really look forward to seeing him. "
        She stopped me with a serious voice. " Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not your story. "
        I was surprised and ashamed. I sat down. I helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only
    son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that the pressure of
    this caused greatly to her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there
    was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.
         Listening to someone's story costs less than expensive diagnostic(诊断的) testing but is key to healing
    (痊愈).
         I often thought of what that woman taught me the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening.
    And, not long after, unexpectedly, I became the patient, with a diagnosis of sclerosis(硬化症) at age 31. Now,
     20 years later, I sit all the time in a wheelchair.
         For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair, but I had to give up my job when my
    hands were influenced. I still teach medical students and other health care professionals, but now from the view
    of doctor and patient.
        I tell them I believe in the power( 力量) of listening. I tell them I know firsthand that huge healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story.  
    1. What does"I was almost in the clear" mean?
    A. I thought everything was clear.
    B. I was about to finish my work.
    C. I almost made myself understood.
    D. I was very quickly out of her sight.
    2. From the 4th paragraph, we can infer the woman ___from the way she said.
    A. showed her anger and impatience
    B. refused to listen to the doctor
    C. liked giving orders to people
    D. could not wait to break in
    3. What is the best title of the passage?
    A. Listening-a Powerful Medicine
    B. An Unforgettable Experience
    C. A Lesson Given by a Patient
    D. Care—a Key to Treatment .

    five-minute warm-up. 2____ In fact, I didn't do well in it. With the teacher's order, we began to run as fast as
    we could. Towards the end, I was so tired that I slowed down and several runners caught up with me.
    However, encouraged by my classmates, I kept running with every effort. 3____To my pleasure, this is the
    best result I have got in an 800-meter race. 
          4____ Not only I challenged the strength(挑战体能) that a runner needed but also I learned that trying my
    best would really make a difference.

         You don't need millions to be happy. In fact, at the Happiness Training Centre in Australia, a couple
    of hundred dollars may be enough. The training centre opened its doors last year, and, since then, men and
    women of all ages have been paying A $ 200 an hour for lessons on how to feel great. "You can really increase
    your happiness levels. That's what we teach, " said Timothy Sharp, beginner of the centre.
         Experts say that only about 15 per cent of happiness comes from income and finance(收入及财务). As
    much as 85 per cent comes from things such as attitude, life control and relationships.
         Most of us are better off financially than our parents and grandparents, but happiness levels haven't
    changed to match that.
         Studies show that once the basic needs of housing and food are met, other wealth adds very little to
    happiness.
         Scientists now say part of the reason we are richer but not happier is that we compare ourselves to
    people better off. "
         The fact is that if you want to be happy, there's a very simple thing you can do: compare yourself to
    people who are less well off than you-poorer, smaller house, etc. ," said Sharp.
         The Happiness Training Centre hopes to show you how to overcome these unhappiness factors(因素) by
    paying attention to" more than just your bank account".
        "If I compare myself to Bill Gates, then I'm always going to be down," said Sharp.
