1.Winnie-the-Pooh
By A.A.Milne
Winnie-the-Pooh has been introduced and reintroduced to generation after generation as a model of a child's best friend.However,not everyone has found Pooh is lovely.This classic has been banned in a variety of countries at one point.So why would anyone ever like to keep children from,the joy of Milne's classic?In the case of Russia,Minnie-the-Pooh was banned in 2009 because of allege(所谓的)Nazi(纳粹党的)ties.
The Wonderful wizard of Oz
By L.Frank Baum
Originally published in the year 1900,The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is one of the foundations of the fairytale genre.Who,then,would seek to ban a book that has become so important to the American experience?
America is that who.The Detroit Library banned The wonderful Wizard of Oz in 1957 for allegedly having no value for children.
Charlotte's Web
By E.B.White
White's tale of the relationship between two unexpected creatures,a spider and a pig,has been drawing children in for over half a century.Published in 1952,the classic has been readily displayed on most library shelves for children to read.However,some people would like to make this book never see the light of the day.
In one extreme case,a school in England banned Charlotte's Web for fear that the pig Wilbur might be offensive(冒犯的) to Muslim students.Fortunately,the Muslin Council of Britain saw the foolishness of this ban,so the book was quickly put back to their rightful place on the shelves.
Where the Wild Things Are
By Maurice Sendak
Though it's been published for fifty years,this book hasn't always been really found in libraries and in stores.After its release,Where the Wild Things Are was banned in libraries all across the U.S.for its dark tone and unruly lead character.Some parents felt obviously uncomfortable about Max,the story's main character.Nowadays,you'll find far fewer libraries that still hold this ban.

2.From my earlier memory of Mother it somehow seemed quite natural to think of her as different,nor of everyday things as Father was.In those days he was a young-looking man.He did not hesitate to make friends with children as soon as they were able to talk to him and laugh at his stories.Mother was older than he was.She must have been a woman of nearly forty,but she seemed even older.She changed little for a long time,showing no indication of growing old at all until,towards the end of her life,she suddenly became an old lady.
I was always inquisitive about Mother's age.She never had birthdays like other people,nor did anyone else in our family.No candles were ever lit or cakes made or presents given in our house.To my friends in the street who talked delightfully about their birthday parties,I would repeat my mother's words that such celebrations were only foolish.
"Nothing but deception,"she would say."As though life can be marked by birthdays.It's deeds,not years,that matter."
Although I often repeated her words and even prided myself on not having birthdays,I once could not help asking Mother when she was born.
"I was born.I'm alive as you can see,so what more do you want to know?"she replied,so sharply that I never asked her about her age again.
In so many other ways Mother was different.Whereas all the rest of the women I knew in the neighboring hoses took pride in their housewifely abilities,their new furniture,the neat appearance of their homes,Mother regarded all those things as of little importance.Our house always looked as if we had just moved in or were about to move out.
(1)How did Father impress the author?
A.He liked writing stories.
B.He loved making friends.
C.He was a very young man.
D.He was popular with children.
(2)Before the end of her life,Mother.
A.looked quite young
B.looked like an old lady
C.looked younger than she was
D.looked like a forty-year-old woman
(3)What does the word"inquisitive"in Paragraph2 probably mean?
A.Certain
B.Curious.
C.Cautious.
D.Confident.
(4)What do we learn about Mother?
A.She was lazy.
B.She was strict.
C.She was proud.
D.She was special.组卷:0引用:1难度:0.7 -
3.It is only praise or punishment that determines a child's level of confidence.There are some other important ways we shape our kids-particularly by giving instructions and commands in a negative or positive choice of words.For example,we can say to a child"Don't run into traffic!"pr"Stay on the footpath close to me."In using the latter,you will be helping your kids to think and act positively,and to feel competent in a wide range of situations,because they know what to do,and aren't scaring themselves about what not to do.
Why does such a small thing make a difference?It is all in the way the human mind works.What we think,we automatically rehearse (预演).For example,if someone offered you a million dollars not to think of a blue monkey for two minutes,you wouldn't be able to do it.When a child is told"Don't fall off the tree,"he will think of two things:"don't"and"fall off the tree".That is,he will automatically create the picture of falling off the tree in his mind.A child who is vividly imagining falling off the tree is much more likely to fall off.So it is far better to use"Hold on to the tree carefully."
Clear,positive instructions help kids to understand the right way to do things.Kids do not always know how to be safe,or how to react to the warning of the danger in negative words.So parents should make their commands positive."Sam,hold on firm to the side of the boat"is much more useful than"Don't you dare to fall out of the boat"or worse still"How do you think I'll feel if you drown"The changes are small but the difference is obvious.
Children learn how to guide and organize themselves from the way we guide them with our words,so it pays to be positive.
(1)Positive choice of words helps kids to.
A.do things carefully
B.build up their confidence
C.improve their imagination
D.learn in different situations
(2)What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A.A child will act on what is instructed
B.One can't help imagining what is heard.
C.A child will fall off the tree when told not to.
D.One won't think of a blue monkey when given money.
(3)Which of the following commands helps kids to be safe?
A.Fasten your seat belt.
B.Don't play by the lake.
C.How do you think I'll feel if you get hurt
D.Don't you dare to walk through the red light
(4)The main idea of the passage is that.
A.praise makes kids confident
B.right instructions keep kids safe
C.clear commands make kids different
D.choice of words can make a difference.组卷:0引用:1难度:0.7

I remember a first time when I saw my little sister Shanshan.I was eight years old.Because my arms looked weak,my mother trusted that I can hold the baby.Then,I took Shanshan on my arms,and I knew how much I very loved her.My mother had a full-time hob,so we had a person which was in charge of housekeeping and taking care of us.I didn't want anyone else take care of my sister.Therefore,I feed her,gave her a bath,and changed her clothes.When she was cry,I held her.Now Shanshan has grown up and is tall than I am,but I still treat her as my little sister.组卷:3引用:3难度:0.3
