When I walked into the living room, my 12-year-old son looked 36 at me and said, “I love you.” I didnt know what to say. For several seconds all I could do was standing there and 37 down at him. My first thought was that he must need 38 with his homework or he was trying to 39 me for some news.Finally I asked, “What was that all about?” “ 40 .” he said, “My teacher said we should 41 our parents that we love them and see what they say. Its a (an) 42 . The next day I called his teacher to find out more about this “experiment” and how the other parents had 43 .“Basically, most of the fathers had the 44 reaction as you did.” The teacher said, “When I first 45 we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.”“The 46 is,” the teacher explained, “feeling loved is an important part of 47 . Its something all human beings 48 . What I am trying to tell the children is that its too 49 that we dont all express those feelings. A boy should be 50 to tell his dad that he loves him.”The teacher, a middle-aged man, understands how 51 it is for some of us to say the things that would be good for us to say. When my son came to me that evening, I held on to him for a(n) 52 second. And just 53 he pulled away, I said in my deepest, most manly voice, “Hey, I love you, too.”I dont know if saying that made either of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good. Maybe next time one of my children says “I love you”, it would not take me a whole 54 to think of the right 55 . 36. A. downB. awayC. outD. up37. A. glancingB. glaringC. staringD. watching38.

They work several hours every day, so they cannot go to a regular school. How do they get an education?In Hollywood, where many TV shows are made, about forty teachers are working. The teachers job is very important. She is responsible for making sure that the children work only the permitted hours each week. She is also responsible for making sure that children learn the required subjects. She makes sure too, that the children get enough rest and play, gives lessons to the children in the shows. She teaches wherever the children are working.Children actors are required to attend classes twenty hours each week. California law says that they must be taught from September to the middle of June. If they do not get good marks in school, they are not permitted to continue working in TV shows.TV children are usually good pupils, and most of their teachers like this special kind of work. Their classes are held in many interesting places. Sometimes the “classroom” is a Mississippi riverboat. Sometimes it is the inside of a spaceship. Often the pupils become famous stars.56.

Other people can keep slim（苗条）without any effort. But a lot of people do put on too much weight and dont like it. The question is, what can they do about it?Some believe exercise can be helpful. But the trouble is that it only makes you want to eat more. You might sweat out a couple of pounds playing tennis or climbing a mountain, but you put it all back on again with a big steak or bread and jam.A helpful way is food choosing. But what sort of food should you choose? Some believe that the less they eat, the slimmer they will be. They dont eat anything until they become weak with hunger. Some stick to milk and bananas. Youll find you need a lot of bananas, and unless you live where they grow, they arent cheap. Others say that if you eat things like hard-boiled eggs, and apples with their skins on which are hard for your stomach to digest, the more you eat, the thinner you get. This is because you use up the fat in your body to get the energy to digest the food.For most of us these methods are too extreme. The simplest way is just to cut down on the carbohydrates（含碳水化合物的食物）that means not eating bread, potatoes, cakes, sugar, rice, and so on and eating anything else you like. Its straight forward and often quite effective.60. According to the passage, the best way to keep slim is _.A. Exercising B. HungerC. Food-choosingD. Eating milk and bananas61.
