one of the last days of summer.Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler.Some kinds of
apples are already ripe (成熟的). Others will be ready to pick soon.I think of my grandmother's apple
pie, and how I used to make it with her.She died last year, before the apple harvest, and I have not had
her pie since.I really miss her.I hear bees busily humming about, visiting the late summer flowers.The
gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.
     The sky is as blue as my grandfather's eyes.Above me, big white clouds race across the sky like
pieces of cotton blowing in the wind.School starts in another week, and time seems to have slowed
down.

help her too.Maybe between the two of us, we can work it out.Want to try?"
     "But it won't be the same without Grandma, "  I tell him.

閱讀理解
     I'm usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or
unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these
statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by
a report which concluded that today's children are significantly more anxious than children in the
1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety
today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.
     Why are America's kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical
isolation(隔離) brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other
things and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
      Considering that we_can't_turn_the_clock_back,_adults can still do plenty to help the next
generation.
     At the top of the list is nurturing(培育) a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No
child is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against
stress.
      To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers.
Your family will thank you later. They will have more time for facetoface relationships, and they will
get more sleep.
     Limit the amount of virtual(虛擬的) violence your children are exposed to. It's not just video
games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
     Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended
Harvard or Yale.
     Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide
a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn't have to ruin your life.
 
1. According to the analysis, compared with normal children today, children treated as mentally ill 50
    years ago ________.
A. probably suffered less from anxiety
B. were considered less individualistic
C. were less isolated physically
D. were probably less selfcentered

2. What does the author mean by saying "we can't turn the clock back" in the third paragraph?
A. It's impossible to forget the past.
B. The social reality children are facing cannot be forgotten.
C. It's impossible to slow down the pace of change.
D. Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.

3. The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about people's state of mind are ________.
A. illogical  
B. confusing
C. surprising  
D. questionable

4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. To children, anxiety is completely avoidable.
B. TV and computer play an important role in isolating children from the real world.
C. Exercise does not help to lessen children's anxiety.
D. Sometimes local news about crime and murder also affects children a little.

5. The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is________.
A. to lower their expectations for them
B. to set a good model for them to follow
C. to get them more involved socially
D. to improve them with a safer environment
