On a farm lived a father and a son. The father always got up early and read books by the stove. One morning, the son came up to him and said, "Dad, I read books at night but forget most of them the next morning. What's the good of reading?"

The father didn’t reply to his question at once. He passed him a basket that was used to carry coal. He said, "Get some water from the river with the basket and then I'll tell you the answer."

The son felt surprised but he did as his father said, He tried many times but every time the water leaked (漏掉) from the basket.

An hour later, the son came back with the empty basket and told his father it was impossible to hold water with the basket. The father said with a smile. "Yes, you are right, my son. The basket can t hold water. But did you notice the basket was different?" The son found the dirty basket had become clean. The father continued, "Reading is like holding water with the basket. Although we can't remember all we read, we have changed while reading."

1.The father was used to reading in the morning.

2.The son wondered if reading was good for him.

3.The father didn't answer his son's question because he thought it was stupid.

4.The basket had no difference after the son used it to get water from the river.

5.From the passage, we know that reading can make a difference to a person.

閱讀短文,并按要求完成文后各題。

Failure is what often happens. It is everywhere in our life. Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and players may fail in competitions. Although failure happens to everyone, different people’s attitudes towards failure are different.

Some people don’t think that their failure is an important thing at all. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure later. Some fall in low spirits when they don’t do well in the work. They usually lose heart and no longer work hard as before. Then they spend their time and energy on useless things. So they have nothing to do but feel sad and empty all day and all night. In fact, they lose the chance of success themselves.

But most people take an active attitude towards failure. They encourage themselves to be self-confident. They find out and analyze the causes so that they will no longer make similar mistakes. They take a lesson from every failure and become more experienced. They will be successful after hard work in the end. Even great men have failed many times before they succeeded. So we must deal with our failure correctly.

1.完成句子Although failure____________, different people take different attitudes to it.

2.完成句子Most people have a(an) ______________ idea when they fail. They are confident.

B

With the development of economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)), the problem of the left-behind children has become a serious social problem. More and more people have realized we should do something to help them.

The biggest problem is that the children arc all hungry for the love from their parents. Many of them can just get a call or n letter from their parents half a year, a year or even several years. So some children can’t remember what their parents look like. When they meet their own troubles, they have no one to talk with. Nobody gives them enough care.

Because of being too far away from their parents, the left-behind children’s study is the second biggest problem. From a survey about their study, only two percent of the children get good results while ten percent of them are common and eighty-eight percent of them arc poor. What a pity!

There are also many other problems of the left-behind children, such as having no ability to protect themselves, unhealthy lifestyles, spending too much pocket money and too much time on the Internet and so on.

In a word, to solve all the problems of the left-behind children needs the government, families and schools to try their best together.

What is the most serious problem of the left-behind children according to the passage?
