16、ct 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

17、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 c

18、hild 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 hi

19、m 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 f

20、rom 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.36. Which is

21、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.37. The author describes his own experience o

22、f 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 science38. When you tell a child about mor

23、als, 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 changed39. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The best way of tea

24、ching 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.BFriend, The recent success of childrens books has made the general public aware that theres a huge market out there. And theres a

25、 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 onc

26、e 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 th

33、pecially dangerous for the elderly.

39、traffic accidentsD. pedestrian deaths in crosswalks remain a serious problemD While watching the Olympics the other night, I came across an unbelievable sight. It was not a gold medal, or a world record broken, but a show of courage.The event was swimming and started with only three men on the block

40、s. For one reason or another, two of them false started, so they were disqualified. That left only one to complete. It would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to race against, even though the time on the clock is important.I watched the man dive off the block and knew right away that som

41、ething was wrong. Im not an expert swimmer, but I can tell a good dive from a poor one, and this was not exactly medal quality. When he resurfaced, it was evident that the man was not out for gold his arms were waving in an attempt at freestyle. The crowd started to laugh. Clearly this man was not a

42、 medal competitor.I listened to the crowd begin to laugh at this poor man who was clearly having a hard time. Finally he made his turn to start back. It was pitiful. He made a few desperate strokes and you could tell he was worn out.But in those few awful strokes, the crowd had changed.No longer wer

43、e they laughing, but beginning to cheer. Some even began to stand and shout “Come on, you can do it!” and he did.A clear minute past the average swimmer, this young man finally finished his race. The crowd went wild. You would have thought that he had won the gold, and should have. Even though he re

44、corded one of the slowest times in Olympic history, this man gave more heart than any of the other competitors.Just a short year ago, he had never even swum, let alone race. His country had been invited to the Olympics.In a competition where athletes remove their silver medals feeling they have some

45、how been cheated out of gold, or when they act so proudly in front of their competitors, it is nice to watch an underdog.47.
