Part Four Short Passage

What makes one person smarter than another? This question is very old and the answers to it are still not clear.

Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull. Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very helpful things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.” Questions:

1. What is the main idea of the passage? (A)

2. What is the question mentioned in the passage? (A)

3. According to the passage, who play an important role in the child’s growing-up? (A)

4. What should the parents do when they play with their children? (B) 5. What should the parents say to their children? (B)

Part Six Fun Time

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shone his flashlight around, looking for valuables, and when he picked up a MP3 to place in his sack, a strange voice echoed from the dark, saying “Jesus is watching you.”

The thief nearly jumped out of his skin, clicking his flashlight off and froze. When he heard nothing more, he clicked the light back on and began searching for more valuables. Just as he was trying to put a cell phone into his sack, clear as a bell, he heard, “Jesus is watching you.” Frightened, he shone his light around to look for the source of the voice. In the corner of the room, he saw a parrot.

“Did you say that?” he asked.

“Yep,” the parrot confessed, “I’m trying to warn you.” The burglar relaxed. “Warn me, huh? Who are you?” “Moses,” replied the bird.

“Moses??!!” the burglar laughed. “What kind of stupid people would name a parrot Moses?”

“Probably the same kind of people that would name a rottweiler Jesus,” the bird answered.
