Chen Jie, 14, from Ningbo, Zhejiang is a lucky girl. She got 3600 yuan as gift money this Spring Festival. However, her grandmother took away all the money and put it in a bank account.
Many students experienced the same thing as Chen. They got their gift money, only to immediately have it taken away.
Xiong Shengyue, 14, from Nanjing, doesn't agree with the practice. "I think the money should be the children's, " she said. " We should take care of it by ourselves."
It is not that simple, said Chu Chaohui, a researcher at national Institute of Education Sciences.
Giving gift money is used to show social status (地位)and develop relationships, he told Beijing Legal Evening News. Gift money has lost its traditional meaning of good will and has "little to do with the children". What's more, children don't earn the money through work. So he thought that parents should still play a big part in dealing with the money.
But Yan Honglan, a mother of a 14-year-old boy in Beijing, has let her son be responsible (承擔(dān)責(zé)任的)for his gift money since the age of 8. "I want to develop his financial(理財) skills, ' Yan said.
She also added:"No matter how you deal with the money, the most important thing is to make the children feel they're respected(尊重) and trusted.
Chen supported Yan's idea. She said that though she knew her grandmother wouldn't waste her gift money, she would feel happier if she could at least know how the money is spent.
"It would make me feel a little bit more grown-up," she said.
小題1:Chen Jie’s grandmother ________.
A.took away all her money and put it in a bankB.let her take care of all her money
C.gave all her money to her parentsD.spent all her money
小題2: Chu Chaohui thought the gift money should be dealed with by _________

In America, when people say“man's best friend”, they don't mean another person. Instead, they are talking about a lovely animal—a dog! These words show the friendship(友誼) between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give joy to people's lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to be the“eyes”for a blind person (盲人) or“ears”for a deaf(耳聾) person. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier, too. Because of that, they bring animals into hospitals for“visits”.
Americans hold“Be Kind to Animals Week”in the first week of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you don't live in America, you, too, can do this. How? First think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food.
If you don't have a pet, be kind to animals around you. For example, if you see a street dog, just leave it alone, or make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to animals, try to speak up. As people, we must protect(保護) animals who can't speak for themselves.

閱讀下列短文,根據(jù)短文中的信息完成文后表格。在標有題號的橫線上,寫出空缺處所填單詞的正確形式。(每空一詞)
What do we really mean by being open? Being open is a kind of invitation to others to come in, to speak and to share. It is important in letting others get to know how we think and feel. In this way we will be understood and accepted by others. If we aren’t open with others, we won’t fully believe in ourselves or others.
Here are a few ways for you to be more open. First, make your outside behavior the same with your inside feelings and thoughts. Second, share how you really feel about something instead of just opinions. Third, try to change your questions into statements(陳述) and talk in the first person so that people will understand you more easily. For example, you might say, “I feel happy that you’re here,” instead of, “Are you glad that you’re here?” Finally, try not to say, “I don’t know.” This usually means I don’t want to think about it any more.
Remember also that it is not suitable to be open with everyone in every situation. You may want to be more open with close friends, but not with people you don’t know well, because you are not sure how someone else will use what they know about you. Besides, some people may not be used to too much openness. If we say everything we feel or think to them, they will feel very uncomfortable at times.
In all, being open is a good way for us to get on well with other people, but we’d better keep the balance between being open and not being too open.

Today almost everyone knows computers and the Internet. If I ask you “What is the most important thing in your life?” Maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet”. The first computer was made in 1946. It was big but worked slowly.    小題1:    What can computers do? A writer once said, “People can’t live without computer today.”
The Internet is about twenty-five years later than computers.   小題2:    We can use it to read books, send e-mails, do some shopping, play games and make friends.
Young men, especially the high school students like the Internet very much.    小題3:   In the Internet bars, they make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know their real names, ages and even sex(性別).    小題4:    Some of them play games in the Internet bars all day and night. Many of them can’t catch up with others in many subjects because of that.
Now the government has done many things. Some gangster bars(黑網(wǎng)吧) have been banned(取締).    小題5:   The teachers and parents are still worried about these children.
