In the United States, friendships can be close, constant, intense, generous, and real, yet fade away in a short time if things change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greeting for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship where it's left off and are delighted.
In the States, you can feel free to visit people's homes and share their holidays without fear that you are taking on a lasting obligation. Do not hesitate to accept hospitality because you cannot give it in return. No one will expect you to do so for they know you are far from home. Americans will enjoy welcoming you and be pleased if you accept their hospitality easily.
Once you arrive there, the welcome will be full and warm and real. Most visitors find themselves easily invited into many homes there. In some countries it is considered inhospitable to entertain at home, offering what is felt as "merely" home cooked food, not "doing something" for your guest. It is felt that restaurant entertaining shows more respect and welcome. Or for various other reasons, such as crowded space, language difficulties, or family custom, outsiders are not invited into homes.
In the United States, both methods are used, but it is often considered more friendly to invite a person to one's home than to go to a public place, except in pure business relationships. So, if your host or hostess brings you home, do not feel that you are being shown inferior treatment.
【小題1】.
. In the United States, friendships might ________ if things become different.

A．disappear little by littleB．last forever
C．be heartbreakingD．end suddenly
【小題2】.
All the following factors but ________ prevent people from inviting their friends home for
dinner according to the passage.
A．different languagesB．naughty children
C．different customsD．small houses
【小題3】.
. We can infer that ________ in America according to this passage.
A．friendships are difficult to get but easy to lose
B．it is hard for a person to pick up the friendship when he comes across his long lost friend
C．you might be considered as a person hungry for social activities if you accept an invitation too easily
D．people care little about where they are invited to go for dinner
【小題4】.
. Why is giving a dinner party at home considered less hospitable in some countries?
A．Because eating at the restaurant is a sign of respect.
B．Because having dinner at home seems less friendly.
C．Because dishes prepared at home are less delicious.
D．Because a dinner at the restaurant is more expensive.

John H. Johnson was born in a black family in Arkansas city in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching the high school age, but his hometown offered no high school for blacks.
Fortunately he had a strong-willed (意志堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的) caring mother. John remembered that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you want really to be if you just believe.”She told him not to depend on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success, ”she said. “All the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.”
These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and hard work don’t mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son, who was then 15, to Chicago.
Chicago in 1933 was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for. John’s mother and stepfather could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here he learned the power of words—as an editor of the newspaper and yearbook at Du Sable High School His wish was to publish a magazine for blacks.
While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by.“Nothing beats a failure but a try. ”She also let him pawn(典當(dāng))her furniture to get the $ 500 he needed to start the Negro magazine.
It is natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mother’s words in mind.“Son, failure is not in your vocabulary!”
Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America—worth $ 150 million.
【小題1】John’s mother decided to move to Chicago because _____.

A．his father died when John was very young

【小題2】John’s mother_____________________
A．didn’t believe in or depend on others

A．if you try, you would succeed
B．a(chǎn) failure is difficult to beat, even if you try
C．a(chǎn) try is always followed by a failure
D．no failure can be beaten unless you try
【小題4】The story mainly tells us _____.
A．how John H. Johnson became successful

Did you ever think someone was scary (恐怖的)because they looked different or ate strange food? Well, they might think the same about you! One of the things we all need to do is to celebrate variety．We shouldn’t think badly of people from other cultures because they behave differently from us.
Sometimes we treat people from other countries unfairly, because one person from that culture did something bad．Well, has your class ever been punished just because a few kids were causing trouble? Has your whole family ever been blamed for something your little sister did? It doesn’t seem fair, does it? It’s just equally unfair to blame a whole culture for what two or three people have done.
So here are some things that you can do to help yourself understand other cultures:
①Find common ground!
Just remember that even though some people look different on the outside, that doesn’t change how they are on the inside．They still have the exact same feelings!
②________________
Because someone from another culture has been mean to you, you decide to avoid everyone from that culture．Well think about it．Why are you blaming them for something they didn’t have anything to do with? Put yourself in their shoes．How would you feel? Putting yourself inside someone else’s head can be a very powerful way to understand WHY they are acting the way they are.
③Try to make friends with people from other cultures!
You could ask them about their culture, or what it is like in their country, if they can remember, or if they have ever lived there．Try foods from their culture, or ask them about words in their language．You might be surprised at how interesting other cultures can be! You can join great discussion groups, participate in projects, and have lots of fun doing new things.

If you know what you have done, it helps to make things better．Pay attention to what you think about other people．It helps.

Scientists often see the first ten years of a child’s life as the “window of opportunity.”   【小題1】  And studies show that the following activities can benefit their brain greatly.
 【小題2】 
Free playtime has always been an important part of “being a kid”, but it is also important to a child’s development. “Free play” not only helps kids develop different skills, it also helps them develop into happy healthy adults in the future.
Read with kids
Reading has long been known to improve children’s intelligence.   【小題3】  For parents who don’t have much time, just surrounding your kids with books goes a long way too.
Put kids to bed early
 【小題4】  Preschool children should get at least eleven hours of sleep and kids up to age 12 should try to get at least ten hours of sleep.
Learn a second language
Early studies in this field have shown that bilingual (雙語的) kids can perform better under pressure. Young children can learn new languages with nearly perfect fluency (流利) and pronunciation.
Praise good effort not intelligence.
Your kids may be smart but you should mainly praise the effort they put into tasks. Kids, who are praised on intelligence, often feel it is a fixed quality, and mistakes or failures badly hurt their self-confidence. Kids who are praised on effort often focus more on learning.   【小題5】    

A．Play some helpful games.
B．Give them enough playtime.
C．And they are not afraid to fail and try again.
D．Kids still need time away from the TV to do homework.
E. Kids who read often develop earlier writing and number skills as well.
F. Everything at this time is very important to the development of a person’s brain.
G. Studies show that kids with regular bedtimes are better at languages, math and reading.
