Preschools—educational programs for children under the age of five—differ significantly from one country to another according to the views that different societies hold regarding the purpose of early childhood education. For instance, in a cross-country comparison of preschools in China, Japan, and the United States, researchers found that parents in the three countries view the purpose of preschools very differently. Whereas parents in China tend to see preschools primarily as a way of giving children a good start academically, Japanese parents view them primarily as a way of giving children the opportunity to be members of a group. In the United States, in comparison, parents regard the primary purpose of preschools as making children more independent and self-reliant, although obtaining a good academic start and having group experience are also important.
While many programs designed for preschoolers focus primarily on social and emotional factors, some are adapted mainly toward promoting cognitive (认知的）gains and preparing preschoolers for the formal instruction they will experience when they start school. In the United States, the
best-known program designed to promote future academic success is Head Start. Established in the 1960s when the United States declared the War on Poverty, the program has served over 13 million children and their families. The program, which stresses parental involvement, was designed to serve the “whole child”，including children’s physical health, self-confidence, social responsibility, and social and emotional development.
Whether Head Start is seen as successful or not depends on the angles through which one is
looking at. If, for instance, the program is expected to provide long-term increases in IQ scores, it is a disappointment. Although graduates of Head Start programs tend to show immediate IQ gains, these increases do not last. On the other hand, it is clear that Head Start is meeting its goal of getting preschoolers ready for school. Preschoolers who participate in Head Start are better prepared for future schooling than those who do not. Furthermore, graduates of Head Start programs have better future school grade. Finally, some research suggests that ultimately Head Start graduates show higher academic performance at the end of high school.
The most recent comprehensive evaluation of early intervention programs suggests that, taken as a group, preschool programs can provide significant benefits, and that government funds invested early in life may ultimately lead to a reduction in future costs. For instance, compared with children who did not participate in early intervention programs, participants in various programs showed gains in emotional or cognitive development, better educational outcomes, increased economic self-sufficiency (自给自足)，reduced levels of criminal activity, and improved health-related
behaviors. Of course, not every program produced all these benefits, and not every child benefited to the same extent. Furthermore, some researchers argue that less-expensive programs are just as good as relatively expensive ones, such as Head Start. Still, the results of the evaluation were promising, suggesting that the potential benefits of early intervention can be significant.
Not everyone agrees that programs that seek to strengthen academic skills during the preschool years are a good thing. In fact, according to developmental psychologist David Elkind, United States society tends to push children so rapidly that they begin to feel stress and pressure at a young age. Elkind argues that academic success is largely dependent upon factors out of parents’ control, such as inherited (遗传的) ties and a child’s rate of maturation. Consequently， children of a particular age cannot be expected to master educational material without taking into account their current level of cognitive development.
In short, children require development appropriate educational practice, which is education based on both typical development and the unique characteristics of a given child. 60Parents in Japan send their children to preschools in the hope of ______.
A. helping children gain group experience B. giving children a good academic start C. expand their emotional development D. pushing children to be independent 61. What can we learn about Head Start from Paragraph 2? A. It discourages parental involvement. B. It aims to help poor but gifted children.
C. It focuses on children’s academic performance. D. It helps children develop in an all-round way.
62. What does the sentence “it is a disappointment” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. The program pays too much attention on grades. B. The program fails to increase children's IQ steadily. C. The program can't reduce levels of criminal activities.
D. The program ignores the importance of children's interests.
63. What can we learn about the benefits of early intervention programs from Paragraph 4? A. Not every program can provide benefits.
B. Children benefit more from programs they find fun.
C. Benefits gained from the programs vary from person to person.
D. Expensive programs provide more benefits than less expensive ones. 64. Which of the following may David Elkind agree with?
A. No pains, no gains. B. Better untaught than ill-taught. C. Haste makes waste. D. All work and no play make Jack a dull boy. 65. What’s the author's attitude toward pre-school educational programs? A. Objective. B. Contradictory. C. Negative. D. Doubtful.

Generally, laughter is related to a number of beneficial effects. Among humans, laughter is often expressed in babies as early as 4 months old. At this time, it usually occurs in response to the behavior of the caregiver. As the child grows older, the child begins to be joined in behaviors, which are intended to raise laughter in others. Ifs believed that the purpose of this development process is to establish social relationships in addition to gaining feedback as to what types of behavior should be strengthened or discouraged. Indeed, most laughter occurs when we are actually in social situations.
Aside from promoting social bonding, research has found that social laughing has also helped people physically. For example, it activates the release of endogenous opiates, chemicals which can reduce feelings of pain and have a relaxing effect, decrease the production of stress hormones (激素）and make the lung work better. Additionally, laughter has psychological benefits. It reduces stress, anxiety, tension, embarrassment, worry, frustration and anger. Ifs good for individuals like nurses, firefighters and soldiers because their work requires them to deal with terrible events or injuries.
What makes us laugh? Usually, the cause is something silly or negative (e.g. watching puppies play, violating a rule). It’s also common for people to find humor in tragedies; in this respect, laughter serves as a coping mechanism (应对机制).
Some people like professional comedians intentionally set themselves up to the target of laughter. However, when laughter is directed at others, it's important that the generated laughter is not
aggressive. Sometimes people laugh for the purpose of laughing at another or making another feel ashamed or stupid. In such instances, the laughter isn’t performed in “good fun”，but at the cost of an individual who will be hurt by it. In these instances, the “laugher’s” behavior is harmful.
Some people are particularly sensitive and have a fear of being laughed at or made to appear silly. This fear has been identified as gelotophobia (恐笑症).Although it isn’t always pleasant to be the object of the joke, the effect this has on people ranges across individuals. For those who are highly gelotophobic, their concern about their performance in public may result in anxiety, shame, avoidance of social situations and low self-respect.
So how do you know whether laughter in a certain situation will produce a positive or negative result? One factor to bear in mind is to know how the target of laughter will feel. Finally, very little good comes from intentionally hurting people who are vulnerable But what about laughing in social situations where the target isn’t present or doesn’t mind? Even in such cases, laughing can sometimes have a negative result if you have no awareness of how the others who are present will react. Overall, although laughter has a number of benefits, in some situations it can ''cut like a knife.'' Be careful!

A survey was conducted in a city in 2017 about factors contributing to diners’ preference of a restaurant. Flavor features, service and the dining environment made up the biggest proportion.
What has triggered this phenomenon? With living standards rising fast, people now focus more on the diversity of food. That’s why flavor features, which 36.3% of the respondents highlight, top the pie chart, while the price only accounts for 8.4%. Almost of equal importance are service and the dining environment. The reason, by and large, is that service and an inviting atmosphere can make diners enjoy a meal to the fullest.
If I choose to dine in a restaurant I will be more concerned about the safety of the food and environment. Reports about the use of dirty cooking oil are often heard, which makes me worried- Besides, I think dining environment can reflect the service quality of the restaurant. (150)
