We usually don’t mind when people call us by positive nicknames.1.But when people call us by cruel nicknames, it can be difficult to get them to stop. So what should you do?
Ask your friends to stop. Maybe you tripped(絆倒)over your feet a few times, and your friends started calling you klutz, thinking that you don’t really mind.2.
Leave a nicknames behind. Sometimes, life gives us a chance to start fresh3.If you’re moving from elementary school to middle school, let your friends know that don’t want to go by your old nickname.
Ignore those who call you by a nickname. If the kids calling you by a bad nickname aren’t your friends, you should do your best to ignore them.4.It may be hard to pretend that it doesn’t hurt, but if you get angry or obviously upset, it will just encourage them to use the nickname all the time.
5.Remember that if you have a bad nickname now, you probably won’t be stuck with it. Just look at Elvis Presley! When he first started singing on stage, he wiggled(擺動)his hips so much that cruel critics and the audience nicknamed him Elvis The Pelvis. He never stopped wiggling. People soon found it impossible to ignore his talent and began to call him The King of Rock & Roll.
A. If it does bother you, tell them.
B. Believe that things will change.
C. If the kids refuse to stop, talk to your teacher.
D. It feels good when these nicknames are repeated.
E. Although words can be hurtful, they can’t change who you really are.
F. The chance can be a good time to get rid of a nickname that you don’t like.
G. If you act like they aren’t hurting you, they’ll eventually get bored and stop.

It encouraged us to visit Quora.com, the online question and answer community, to find out how users get the most out of every tank of gas.
Light makes right
Alex Elderfield noted that excess weight prevents an engine from burning fuel efficiently. "Only carry what is essential in your car, clean out any junk or necessary items otherwise you are paying for the fuel to cart these from place to place," he wrote.
Driving smoothly — that is, not mashing the gas and then slamming the brakes later down the road — was a fixture of many responses. Quora user Clint Law agreed on that advice, who wrote, "Every little bit of kinetic energy that your brakes lose, your engine burned in fuel to build up." Overbraking should consequently be viewed as wasted acceleration. "That's really what kills your fuel economy," he argued.
Keep the pressure up
Keeping the recommended tire pressure for your car was another mantra among Quora users. Marlyn Rosent said she checked her tire pressure every time she filled up her SUV. Quora user Doug Dingus checks his tire pressure every weekend. “Less tire contact means reduced rubbing, requiring less fuel,” he said.
Air conditioning or windows
Though the summer heat get many drivers to roll up the windows and turn on the air conditioning, some people argued that running the A/C wastes too much gas. In between were many shades of grey.
Achilleas Vortselas said it would depend largely on a car’s speed. He wrote that as a general rule, people should drive with the windows down around the city and turn the air conditioning on when hitting the highway, where a car’s aerodynamic(空氣動力的) characteristics would be influenced by opened windows.
More seriously minded people, however, said to travel as much as possible with windows up and the A/C off. Eddie Xue gets by with just a wisp of outside air. “Use the fan and open your windows every now and then at lower speeds," he wrote.
1.What can we learn from what Clint Law wrote?
A. Overbraking is a waste of gas.
B. Carry what we need in the car.
C. Build up energy to drive smoothly.
D. Stepping on the gas freely can keep a balance.
2.What do we know from Doug Dingus’ words?
A. Checking tire pressure will require less fuel.
B. Filling up the SUV leads to reduced rubbing.
C. Keeping the recommended tire pressure is necessary.
D. Braking fiercely can keep wasting acceleration.
3.The author says “In between were many shades of grey” to indicate that ________.
A. rolling up the windows and turning on the air conditioning waste too much gas
B. people should try their best to travel with windows up and the A/C off
C. when a car approaches higher speeds, the A/C should come on
D. there’s balance between the air conditioning and windows usage
4.Which is the suitable title of the passage?
A. Fuel efficiency, straight from source
B. Driving with the windows down and using the A/C
C. How to save at the pump this summer
D. Reducing the weight and increasing the vehicle’s fuel economy

科目:高中英語 來源:江西省2016-2017學年高二下學期期中考試英語試卷 題型:閱讀理解
Parents play a very important role in children’s development, but that doesn’t mean that parents should spend all their money in educating their children. Or else, it would be unfair to them. However, some modern Chinese parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia without caring about the money. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will learn a musical instrument or ballet or other classes which will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So the 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 vary, skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today’s children lack self-respect and self-confidence.
The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents aren’t 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 housework.
Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. It’s an enjoyable but difficult experiment. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually to 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 children to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities aren’t merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.
1.According to this passage, there are some problems with _________.
A. the Chinese children’s skills
B. the education system of China
C. the Chinese parents’ idea of educating their children
D. the Chinese children’s hobbies
2.The writer of this passage seems to agree that parents in China _______.
A. are too strict with their children
B. are too rich to educate their children
C. are too poor to educate their children
D. have some problems in educating their children correctly
3.We can conclude that cooking at home helps children_________.
A. benefit from it and prepare themselves for the future
B. learn how to become strong and fat
C. learn how to serve their parents
D. make their parents believe that they are clever
4.The last paragraph shows that_________.
A. broken radios and television sets are useful
B. an engineer must fix many broken radios
C. one’s curiosity may be useful for his later life
D. a good student should spend much time repairing radios
