1、At the age of 18, many American young people go off on their own.1. They get into universities or find full-time jobs. And they often rent(租) their own apartments. Some get married and start families. This independence is learned from childhood.
From an early age, American children learn responsibility(责任感). Children as young as two begin to put away their toys and get dressed themselves. 2. Many children were able to do some simple chores at the age of three. Since they lived in one house, they should share their housework. Doing chores helps to develop children’s independence.
3.孩子们不应该太依赖他们的父母。
Children began to learn how to spend money properly from a young age. 4.When a child can understand the meaning of money, he or she will get some allowance(零花钱). This is used for things the child wants, like toys or treats. The child can spend or save it, usually with little guidance from parents. If the child wants money besides his or her allowance, it must be made by doing extra chores.
Children are taught early in life to think for themselves. 5.父母应该允许孩子们做一些决定和犯错误。Failure often teaches children more than success.

These days, anyone who use WeChat or QQ also uses memes. Memes, or biaoqingbao in pinyin, have become an important part of online chatting among Chinese. Here are some ideas about memes from middle schools’ students.
Hi, my name is Zhuo Yueqian. I like memes of cartoon characters and animals. They are often used to show our different moods such as happiness and sadness. At the same time, using funny memes can make our friends closer. I also find that sometimes memes can better comfort a sad person than words. | |
Hello, I’m Wang Jiaming. It’s good to use memes, but we should be careful when using memes to communicate with the elderly as they may not understand them. Besides, if we depend on memes too much, it will weaken our ability to use language in the future. | |
I’m Lin Xinrong. Using memes can stop people from feeling worried, as some memes are quite interesting. We may feel happy and comfortable. However, if we are talking about something formal and important, it may be impolite to use memes. |
【1】According to Zhuo Yueqian, memes will help us to show ________ between friends.
A.hobbies
B.feelings
C.health
D.sports
【2】Wang Jiaming thinks ________ can probably not understand or use memes.
A.a doctor in a hospital
B.a grandmother at home
C.a student in a middle school
D.a manager of a company
【3】The passage above might come from the ________ part of a school website.
A.life
B.hero
C.movie
D.news
23、Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the best way to encourage them to be so? The answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.
Unfortunately, popular culture has different ideas about children’s decision making. Most parents make decisions for their children – what they wear, what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact, it’s not good for children’s growing.
Parents should allow children to make decisions when they are very young. But this doesn’t mean children are allowed to do everything. For example, you shouldn’t take your children into a store and tell them they can have anything they want. They would be overwhelmad(不知所措的) by the choices (选择). But you can give them a choice among snacks. When children get older, “expand” the number of choices you give them. For example, allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.
The next step is to get your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First, why do I want to do this? Second, what are my choices? Third, what are the results of the actions? After these questions, they are sure to have right decisions.
【1】The beat way to make children be happy and successful is to ______.
A. allow them to buy more books B. make them read more books
C. allow them to make their own decisions D. make them go to college
【2】The writer thinks ______.
A. parents should make decisions for children B. parents should teach children to make decisions
C. children could do what they want to do D. children could not make their decisions
【3】The underlined word “expand” in the passage means ______ in Chinese?
A. 扩大 B. 收回 C. 开放 D. 缩小
【4】Children should ask themselves ______ questions before making a decision.
A. two B. three C. four D. five
