As parents, we walk a fine line between caring for our children and teaching them how to care for themselves. When they're little, they need our help with everything. Over time, kids usually take the lead on things like feeding and dressing themselves, but it can be difficult to know when it's time for them to start doing some basic things, such as packing their own lunches for school or solving problems with teachers without a parent's help.
Blogger Amy Carney recently shared a post about the things parents should stop doing for their teens. In it, Carney shared the basic skills that she expects her kids to master by the time they hit 13, such as waking themselves up in the morning, making their own breakfast and lunch, and finishing their own homework.
Barb Harvey, a childhood behavior expert, gave me her answer: The age at which children learn to master certain skills will be different depending upon the maturity (成熟) and interest level of the child.
I asked the same question among my friends. They gave all kinds of answers, which could explain Harvey's opinion.
Therefore, there's only one expert who can determine when your kids have the ability to deal with certain skills, and that's you. If your kids aren't ready to pack their own lunches—don't sweat it. Help them learn the skills they're ready to deal with and keep working towards the end goal of raising responsible and able adults. Because if there's one thing that we can all agree on as parents, it's that time moves quickly when you're raising kids. One day you will wish they could just do things without you and the next day, you will feel upset that they do.
1．What is Amy Carney's expectation when her children are 13
A．To be a skillful cook. B．To follow Harvey's opinion.
C．To be an expert. D．To have basic skills.
2．Who can decide when the children will learn to care for themselves
A．Amy Carney. B．Barb Harvey.
C．The children. D．The parents.
3．Why will parents feel upset when their children grow up
A．Their kids can do nothing.
B．They feel less important.
C．Their children become able adults.
D．Their kids disagree on anything.
4．What does the text mainly talk about
A．Walking a fine line.
B．Blogger Amy Carney.
C．Parents and their children's growth.
D．A childhood behavior expert.

Eating spicy foods frequently may be tied to a slightly lower risk of an earlier death, according to a new study. However, more research is needed to confirm the link, experts say.
The researchers found that the people in the study who ate spicy foods one or two days a week were 10 percent less likely to die during the study, compared with those who ate spicy foods less than once a week, according to the study published in the journal The BMJ. Moreover, the people in the study who ate spicy foods three or more days a week were 14 percent less likely to die during the study, compared with those who ate spicy foods less than once a week.
However, the study was observational, and so it is too early to tell whether there is a certain relationship between eating spicy foods and lower mortality. said study author Lu Qi, an associate professor at Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts. “We definitely need more data from other populations，” Qi told Live Science. “The researchers don't know why exactly the consumption of spicy foods may be linked to the drop of early death, but previous research on cells and animals has suggested several possible connections，” Qi said.
“It is unclear whether the observed associations are the direct result of spicy foods intake, or whether spicy foods are simply a marker for other beneficial but unmeasured dietary components (成分)，” said Nita Forouhi, a nutritional expert. At this point, researchers don't know for sure whether eating spicy foods can have a beneficial effect on human health and mortality, Forouhi wrote. “Future research is needed to make sure whether spicy food consumption has the potential to improve health and reduce mortality directly, or if it is merely a marker of other dietary and lifestyle factors，” she said.
5．Which section of a newspaper is the article probably taken from
A．Advertisement. B．Business.
C．Science. D．Education.
6．What does the underlined word “mortality” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Death rate. B．Living cost.
C．Physical suffering. D．Energy requirement.
7．What does the passage mainly tell us
A．Link between food and health.
B．Association between a certain food and health.
C．Connection between habits and health.
D．Relation between food and health.
8．What's the writer's attitude towards eating spicy foods frequently
A．Negative. B．Positive.
C．Doubtful. D．Objective.
C
Mrs. Mullen had just got a new heart. She'd waited a year for it, she told me—not that she was complaining. In fact, Mrs. Mullen never complained about anything. She just got on with it. Although she was getting over a serious operation, she didn't even like to bother the nurses for a painkiller. She put me, and most of my patients in the hospital, to shame.
My generation are a generation of complainers. We think the world owes us something. But if the world owes anyone anything, it owes people like Mrs. Mullen. She left school at 14, even though she'd won a place at grammar school. She worked in a factory until she retired. She never had a day off sick in her life and never had a holiday—not even when she gave birth to her three children. That's nearly 50 years of hard work. I've never worked as hard as Mrs. Mullen, and I'll almost certainly never have to.
Mrs. Mullen recovered well and soon left hospital. It never occurred to me that I'd see her again, so I couldn't believe my eyes when a few weeks later I went to buy a sandwich from the hospital Friends' shop.
“What are you doing here？” I asked. “You're supposed to be resting.”
“Oh I am，” she replied. “It's only a few hours a week. I saw the ad for volunteers while I was staying here. It's my way of saying thank you for all that this hospital has done for me.”
Thank you Mrs. Mullen is the sort of person who gives back more than she takes. I asked for a cheese and tomato sandwich. She handed me egg instead—it was all they had got. I hate egg, but I decided to eat it anyway and not to complain.
9．Mrs. Mullen made the author feel ashamed because ________.
A．he liked bothering others
B．he often made complaints
C．he wasn't as brave as her
D．he didn't give her painkiller
10．We know from the text that Mrs. Mullen ________.
A．was hardworking
B．was in debt for years
C．once taught at school
D．received a good education
11．When the author met Mrs. Mullen at the shop, he________.
A．felt very surprised
B．treated her to a sandwich
C．helped her get a job there
D．asked her to rest immediately

【语篇解读】　当我们读诗的时候，我们会很容易跟诗人产生共鸣。澳大利亚研究人员Oscar Schwartz创建了一个用计算机写诗的网站，但此法是否可行呢？
1．were thinking'考查动词的时态。句意：当我们读一首诗时，我们通常会想象诗人在写诗的时候正在想什么或者他们在那个时候正在做什么。根据句意可知，此处表示在过去的某个时刻正在做某事，应用过去进行时，空处与“what they were doing”并列，故填were thinking。

3．using'考查动名词。介词后跟名词、代词或动名词，故填using。
4．but/yet'考查连词。空前意为“电脑创作的诗可能在语法和风格上都是正确的”，空后意为“一些人说这样的诗仍缺乏创造性和真实的意义”，根据句意可知，前后句之间为转折关系，故填but/yet。
5．creativity/creativeness'考查名词。根据空后的“and true meaning”并结合语境可知，空处与“true meaning”构成并列关系，故填creativity/creativeness，此处表示“缺乏创造性和真实的意义”。
6．called'考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，动词call和其逻辑主语a website之间构成动宾关系，故用其过去分词形式作定语。
7．were written/are written'考查动词的语态和时态。分析句子结构可知，动词write和其主语之间为被动关系，故用被动语态；且动作有可能是在过去发生，也有可能是在现在经常性发生，故用一般过去时和一般现在时均可，故填were written/are written。
8．which'考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，介词后需关系代词，先行词是“a speech”，指物，故用which。
9．fool'考查动词。根据空前的“were able to”和语境可知，此处表示这个网站的诗能够骗过65%的读者，此处应该使用动词，故填fool。
10．what'考查宾语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导宾语从句，作及物动词identify的宾语，且空处在从句中作主语，故填what。
