| Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee and rarely 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 cannot 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 determining 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 ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that 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. 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. |
| 2. To become a leader in a game the child has to ________. |
| A. play well B. wait for his turn C. be confident in himself D. be popular among his playmates |
| 3. What do we know about grown-ups? |
| A. They are not interested in games. B. They find children's games too easy. C. They don't need a reason to play games. D. They don't understand children's games. |
| 4. Why does a child like playing games? |
| A. Because he can be someone other than himself. B. Because he can become popular among friends. C. Because he finds he is always lucky in games. D. Because 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 plays with them. C. children's games can do them a lot of good D. children play games without reasons |

| If you do not use your arms of your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that one's memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is really his own fault. Not all of us can become very strong or very clever, but all of us can improve our memory by the same means-practice. Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have a better memory than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because people who can't read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is exercised all the time. So if you want a good memory, learn from those who cannot read or write: practice remembering. |

| 2. The author thinks that if a person has a poor memory, ________. |
| A. it is his own fault B. his parents are to blame C. he is just unlucky D. his arms must be weak |

| A. become very strong B. become very clever C. improve our memory by practicing D. know how to improve our memory |

| A. people who can't read are cleverer than those who can B. people who can't write are cleverer than those who can C. a little notebook helps people who cannot read or write get a better memory D. people who practice remembering regularly have a better memory |
