simple. Parents have a lot of time for their first child; they give them or her much attention. So this child is likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reason. What happens to the other children in the family? Middle children don’t get so much attention, 48 they don’t feel that important. If a family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd. The youngest child, though, often gets special treatment. He or she is the baby. Often this child grows up to be funny or charming. Do you believe these ideas about birth order too? A recent study saw things quite differently. The study found that first children believed in family rules. They didn’t take many chances in their lives. they 49 followed orders. Rules didn’t me an as much to later children in the family. They went out and followed their own ideas. They took chances and they often did better in life.

pong game is over, it goes back to being a normal door. It was designed by Tobias Fr?nzel from

Big earthquakes can damage a house, possibly making the people in it get hurt. But our

Help a Child Write a Book Review

Why Use This Tip

Reviewing a favorite (or not so favorite) book helps a child’s reading

comprehension. It also gives him or her the c 81 to express an opinion

through writing and develop his or her writing style and voice. In order to write

express opinions, you’ll provide a framework (框架) for writing a 82 not only books but also movies, plays, and TV shows.

What to Do

1. Look for some examples of book reviews. Your favorite magazine or local newspaper may be a good source; some newspapers even include reviews by middle or high school students. You can also f reviews online at the Books section of USA Today or The New York Times.

83 book 2. Re ad some book reviews with a child and together pick out the main elements, for example: the book’s and author (作者), a brief summary of the plot, comments on the book’s strengths and weaknesses, the reviewer’s p response to the book with specific examples to support praise or criticism (批评).

t 84 85 3. Help the child choose a book to review. It can be a novel he or she is reading for fun or a book for

homework. One way to encourage interest and have some fun with the project is to pick a book, such as a children’s picture book, a comic strip novel, or a book of photography.

4. Encourage the child to take notes while reading the book so he can r 86 to support his points.

5. Suggest that a child outline (列提纲) the book review b 87 writing, using one paragraph for each point he or she wants to make about the book.

Antarctica (南极洲) is the fifth-largest continent on Earth. It is also the coldest, windiest, driest and highest continent. It is an ice-covered place where no large plants grow, and no land animals live there.

Antarctica covers an area of more than 13.6 million square kilometers. It is nearly twice the size of Australia, or one-and-a-half times the size of the United States of America.

Antarctica does not belong to one country, and it has no government. People visit Antarctica usually as tourists, or to do scientific research – but no one lives there all the time.

Antarctica was the last continent to be discovered. It is not certain who first saw Antarctica, but sailors began to map Antarctica’s coast from their ships in the 1800s. The first confirmed (证实) landing was in the

mid-1890s.

Over the next few years, severa l men tried but failed to reach the South Pole, which is the Earth’s southernmost point.

Finally, a team led by Norwegian Roald Amundsen reached the South Poe in 1911. By then, countries around the world were becoming more and more interested in the frozen continent, and soon seven nations: Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom, had laid claim to parts of Antarctica.

As so many nations had made a claim to territory in Antarctica, it was clear that fighting might break out. Diplomats (外交官) from different countries wanted to stop a war from starting, so they began talking about a treaty for Antarctica. A treaty is a written agreement signed by two or more nations.

Several countries had already set up research stations in Antarctica where scientists could live and work. Most scientists worked during the summer months when it was not as cold as in winter. Scientists hoped a treaty would allow them to continue their work and to exchange information with scientists from other countries.

VII. Writing（作文）：（共20分）

94. Write at least 60 words about the topic “What I have learnt from (making) mistakes”.

（以“我从（犯）错误中学到的”为题写一篇不少于60词的短文，标点符号不占格。）生活中人人会犯错误，或大或小，关键是犯错后的态度。你犯过什么样的错误呢？犯过之后有什么体会和我们分享吗？
