第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分60分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

A

Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend

an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.

However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap. Parents can see that their children’s skills vary, skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today’s children lack self-respect and self-confidence. The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and clever.

Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.

Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.

Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important. 21．Parents in China, according to this passage, _______.

A. are too strict with their children B. are too rich to educate their children

C. have some problems in educating their children correctly D. are too poor to educate their children

22．The writer of the passage does not seem to be satisfied with ______.

A. the parents’ ideas of educating their children B. the education system C. children’s skills D. children’s hobbies 23．Doing some cooking at home helps children ______.

A. learn how to serve their parents B. learn how to become strong and fat

C. benefit from it and prepare themselves for the future D. make their parents believe that they are clever

24．According to the last paragraph we can conclude that ______.

A. broken radios and television sets are useful B. one’s curiosity may be useful for his later life C. an engineer must fix many broken radios

D. a good student should spend much time repairing radios

Tickets for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil have gone on sale, with fans able to apply on FIFA’s website. FIFA is expecting a similar demand to that in Germany 2006, when there were about seven applicants for every ticket of the 64 matches. And now around 3.3 million tickets will be available for the matches in 2014.

Tickets will range in price from￡58 for first-round matches to￡632 for the final at Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Brazilian citizens over 60, local students and members of

some social programs can purchase tickets for ￡15．

Almost two million tickets were sold to the general public in South Africa, although the number of applications during the first ticketing phase(阶段) was significantly lower．

The sales of the leftover tickets will begin on 5th November on a first-come, first-served basis. Another phase will begin on 8th December after the draw is made. The tournament begins on 12th June, with Brazil playing the opener in Sao Paulo．

If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what’s around. It’s called Apple Day but in practice it’s more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21,but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.

Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans, Although it doesn't taste of anything special, it's still worth a try, just like the knobbly（多疙瘩的）Cat's Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.
