There were plenty of gifts from relatives, but some came from salesmen, who tried to improve relations with my father, the vice president of a Midwestern department store chain.All pleasure I expressed upon unfolding a package was silenced when I learned about Moms law. For each and every present there must be an inescapable thank-you note. It took a lifetime to learn Mothers real lesson: There is no law requiring people to send me gifts or treat me nicely, and for their thoughtfulness alone they deserve acknowledgement. I must show that I appreciate what they have done.In writing notes, either to family members or to gift-givers whose names I could not attach to a face, timeliness was the most important. If Mom asked when I was going to write a note, my wrong answer was, “When I feel like it.” She informed me that the giver needed to know that the gift had arrived safely through rain or snow or heat or gloom of the night. My note also needed to answer the giver and recognize his or her thoughtfulness, creativity or generosity. (Grandma, youre so good at knotting! It must have taken you weeks to make that blanket for me. Thank you!) Next, the note had to contain some kind of use for the gift itself. Even if I didnt like it, I would have to find some positive quality. (Aunt Sally, your sweater is so soft, I never want to stop touching it.) Finally, I had to say something about myself to show that I was not just doing my duty but also being honest. I still remember the day when a friend of Moms called to compliment me for a thank-you note Id written.Later, writing a thank-you note was no longer a task for me to do with, but a process that made me feel cared for and reminded me that I was caring. A thank-you note is not only for others, but for myself as well.56. Why did the writer get presents from some salesmen?A. Because they really liked her.B. Because they wanted her to help them join the department store chain.C. Because they wanted to develop a better relationship with her father.D. Because the writer asked them for the presents.57. By saying “Aunt Sally, your sweater is so soft, I never want to stop touching it.” The writer wanted to .A. make Sally feel that she liked the giftB. show her real preference for the soft sweaterC. let Sally know that she didnt like the sweater muchD. lie to Aunt Sally in order to get another sweater58. What can we infer from the third paragraph?A. Writing thank-you notes reminded the writer that she was cared for.B. The writer didnt like writing thank-you notes in the beginning.C. Mom also wrote thank-you notes for the gift givers.D. Writing a thank-you note was a religious custom at that time.59. The writer wants to tell us that .A. writing thank-you notes means caring for others as well as for oneselfB. people who give others gifts must have some purposeC. writing thank-you notes can make us get others complimentsD. one need experience a process to get used to writing thank-you notes. B Moral (道德)science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect. Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality is not a science, strictly speaking. It is too much of a social phenomenon, and also has too much of the personal and subjective things mixed within. Besides, morality itself changes with generations, so it is impossible to be printed in a normal textbook.I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral lessons, which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness. It had little effect and left no impression on me, though.If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools, it needs a participatory approach. When you tell a child about moral, you also have to deal with social norms( 社会规范) and cultural differences. You have to explain that morality can be subjective, and be able to co-exist in society. You will probably have to refer to the morals at the present time.The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him what is valued. If a child likes his friend, you have to make the child think about why. Once the child notices and recognizes goodness in others, he or she is likely to develop it as well.In fact, children learn most of their morals by watching people around them. They absorb behaviour patterns from teachers and older students. They watch to see what is rewarded and who is punished. They learn on the sports field and through social work. Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact, and watch you support correct values and reward good behaviour.60. Which is NOT the reason that moral science is taught in schools with little effect?A. Morality doesnt belong to a scienceB. Morality is more like a social phenomenon.C. Different generations have different moral ideas.D. Morality cant be written down in textbooks.61. The author describes his own experience of learning moral lessons in order to .A. explain that telling lies is not moral for little childrenB. advise that people should be rewarded for their goodnessC. prove that moral lessons in schools have little effectD. show that he has no impression of moral science62. When you tell a child about morals, you should .A. teach him to share personal moral ideas with othersB. tell him about social norms and cultural differencesC. explain that nobody can influence his moral ideasDsay that the morals at the present time will be changed63. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The best way of teaching children about morals.B. The value of teachers setting a good example.C. The influence of peoples behaviour on morals.D. The importance of rewarding good behaviour. CDear Friend, The recent success of childrens books has made the general public aware that theres a huge market out there. And theres a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth of childrens books bought each year plus stories and articles needed by over 650 publishers of magazines for children and teenagers.Who are these needed writers? Theyre ordinary folks like you and me. But am I good enough?I was once where you might be now,My thoughts of writing had been pushed down by self-doubt, and I didnt know where to turn for help.Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude(潜能),and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.The promise that paid offThe Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you show basic writing ability:You will complete at least one manuscript(手稿)suitable to hand in to a publisher by the time you finish our course.I really didnt expect any publication before I finished the course, but that happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the Institute.Since graduation, I have authored 34 nationally published childrens books and over 300 stories and articles.Free test and brochureWe offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.Realize you writing dream today. Theres nothing sadder than a dream delayed until it fades forever.Sincerely,KristiKristi Holl, InstructorInstitute of Childrens Literature64. From the first three paragraphs, we learn that .
