" Red envelope "（微信红包）has swept the country recently．Children can get more money by snatching（抢）red envelope． But everyone needs to understand something about money： where it comes from， how to save it and how to spend it correctly． Too many parents don't take time to teach their children about money， and as a result， many of those children don't know how to deal with money when they grow up．
When should parents begin teaching their children about money？ Experts（专家） agree that it's never too early． The more children learn about money，the more correctly they will be able to deal with money as they grow older． To begin with， parents can teach kids how to count money．
Next， parents can teach kids how to save money． For example， a kid wants a new bicycle． Parents can teach them to save part of their pocket money for that bike，while still keeping some money for ice cream and movies． In this way they will begin to understand the meaning of saving．
Also it's never too early to teach children different ways to make money besides snatching red envelopes． For example， they wash cars， clean gardens， look after babies and so on． Sit down with children and talk with them about some ways they could make money． You'll be surprised and glad at the effort they will begin making．

Even with these tips； however，Dunn and Norton said that you shouldn't"bet on"money buying happiness，and that you should have something useful to do，someone to love and something to hope for．

When it comes to the letter grade on your test or homework， you might notice that there is no letter E． Have you ever thought about why that is so？
In the A， B， C， D and F grading system， the first four letters are typically considered passing grades． An F in this system simply stands for"fail"．The word"fail"happens to start with the letter F， which seems to leave out the letter E． The fact of the matter is that any letter can mean "not﹣passing" or "fail"．Some schools have U grade for"unsatisfactory"，or I grade for "incomplete"．
Even with all this said， we should also point out that E grade actually has been used pretty commonly throughout the history of letter grades in the US．
The first college in the US to use a letter grading system like the ones we use today is Mount Holyoke College． In 1897，they began to use the following grading scale：
A： 95﹣100%（excellent）
B： 85﹣94%（good）
C： 76﹣84%（fair）
D： 75%（barely passed）
E： below 75%（failed）
We can see the inclusion of E instead of F．
Gradually，the letter grading system became more popular throughout the US． However， many schools decided to drop the E grade and go straight to F．There is no evidence（证据） to really support this，but one possible explanation is that teachers were worried that some students and parents might mistake E for "excellent"．
Why do we have letter grades？ Well，part of the reason is that they made grading simpler during a time of great change for schools． As the 20th century began，growing cities and an increase in immigration led to larger school classrooms． Most teachers at that time thought this new letter grading system was an easy，fair and clear way to grade students．
Today，more and more people argue that letter grades don't fully reflect（反映） student learning．However，as teachers try to improve grading methods，many parents continue to favor the letter grades they got as kids．They are familiar（熟悉） and easy for parents to understand． So while they might not be perfect， the letter grades probably aren't going away any time soon．
（1）what does an F stand for in the A、B、C、D and F grading system？
（2）when was the letter grading system first used in the US college？
（3）what is one possible explanation for dropping the E grade？
（4）what did most teachers think of the letter grading system in the 20th century？
（5）why do many parents still prefer the letter grades today？
Say you're sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites．"Oh，that game's easy．So not worth the time，"one of your friends says．The others agree．Although you enjoy the game quite a lot，not wanting to argue with them，you go along with the crowd．
You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure（同伴压力），also called peer
influence．You will adopt a certain type of behavior，dress，or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your"peers"．As a teen，you are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas．
We are all influenced by our peers at any age．For teens，as school and other activities take you away
from home，you may spend more time with your friends than with your family．As you become more
independent，your peers naturally play a greater role in your life．
According to Dr．Casey from Cornell University，teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions
on their own and in situations where they have time to think．However，when they make decisions in the
heat of the momentor in social situations，their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers．In a
recent study，teen volunteers played a video driving game，either alone or with friends watching．The
researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were
watching，compared with when they played alone．This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around，or in situations where they are extremely angry．
Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices，they can also influence us to make good ones．A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it，or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important．In fact，friends often encourage each other to study，or try out for sports．
While we are always influenced by those around us，the decision to act or not is up to us．So when it
comes to decision making，the choice is up to you．
52．According to the passage，Dr．Casey probably agrees that teens ．
A．like to play driving games with their friends
B．prefer situations where they have time to think
C．may take more risks when their friends are around
D．are slow in making decisions when they are on their own
53．The words" in the heat of the moment"in Paragraph 4 probably mean" "．
A．when teens avoid possible risks
B．when teens trust their judgment
C．when teens lose control over their anger
D．when teens give consideration to situations
54．What can we learn from the passage？
A．Teens are eager to be different from their peers．
B．Peer pressure has effects on both teens and adults．
C．Peer pressure does more harm than good to teens．
D．Tees think it challenging to get good grades at school．
55．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？
A．Peer Pressure：Is It Necessary to Deal with It？
B．Peer Pressure：Is It Possible to Get Away from It？
C．Peer Pressure：Its Benefits to Teens and Friend Making
D．Peer Pressure：Its Influence on Teens and Decision Making．
In the past， I thought I was terrible at many things， such as math， French and science． Although I was good at drawing， I wasn't the best in my art class．I wanted to find out who I was，what I liked and how I could do it better．So， that winter，I took a notebook and kept my diary． When I filled that notebook，I started another one， and then another．
Keeping a diary helps a lot． Studies have shown that people who keep a diary sleep and feel better． It helps people remember what once happened such as dreams， friendships and happiness． Writing about bad feelings can also help brains get over themand move on． Personally， I learn better about myself and my relationships with others by keeping a diary．For example，when I am fighting with my dad， I'll try writing from his point and it works! If I want to compare myself with my classmates．I'll write something like，"I might not have clear skin， but I like my eyes．"
Right about now， you might be thinking： it sounds great， but I'm not a good writer； or I'd love to keep a diary， but my handwriting is terrible． Don't worry! Keeping a diary is not like doing your homework ﹣there are no rules， so do whatever feels best．

Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi'an． He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code（二维码）．"We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate（使产生）the codes， and in the end everything gets easier，" said Guo．"When students finish the homework， they keep it on WeChat． Then， each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me． So I can check their homework everywhere using my computer or telephone．"
The QR codes can be sent to Mr. Guo by email， QQ and WeChat． When Guo scans （扫描） his students' QR codes， their homework appears on his phone． He finds that their homework becomes more creative， with many pictures， music and even videos．
Guo's students like the new way and think it is interesting． "We are living in the information age． Many students like to work with computers， which makes learning more fun．" said Tingting， a student of Guo's．
"The paper is not easy to keep， but the code is easy to keep and share．" Guo said，"It is worth trying to use new technology in education． Education itself is a kind of creation． I don't want my students to fall behind the times．"
However， some parents are worried． They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers． But in fact， it's unnecessary． Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework． They only use the code when they hand in their homework， which doesn't take them too much time． Also for teachers， it allows them to check the students' homework at any time． And it's also an easy way to share homework with other students．

Students these days often have a lot of worries． Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork， and sometimes with their friends． What can they do about this？ Some people believe the worst thing is to do nothing． Laura Mills， a teenager from London， agrees．"Problems and worries are normal in life，" says Laura． But I think talking to someone helps a lot． Unless we talk to someone， we'll certainly feel worse．"
Laura once lost her wallet， and worried for days．She was afraid to tell her parents about it．She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn't have any money．She just kept thinking，"If I tell my parents， they'll be angry!" In the end，she talked to her parents and they were really understanding．Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself． They got her a new wallet and asked her to be more careful．"I will always remember to share my problems in the future!" Laura says．
Robert Hunt advises students about common problems． He feels the same． way as Laura．"It is best not to run away from our problems． We should always try to solve them．"He thinks the first step is to find someone you trust to talk to．This person doesn't need to be an expert like himself．" Students often forget that their parents have more experience， and are always there to help them．
In English， we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half． So you're halfway to solving a problem just by talking， to someone about it．

Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework？ You might wish that you could read faster．There are some people who say that you can learn to read at super﹣high speeds． But experts disagree on this idea．
"Speed reading is not actually possible，" said Elizabeth Schotter，a scientist at the University of South Florida， US． Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books．
In fact， speed reading has been made known to people since 1959， when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program． Several US presidents have even asked their officers to take speed reading courses． However， there is no real science behind speed reading．
Schotter explained that reading is a task difficult to finish． It includes four steps： seeing a word， getting back its meaning from your memory， connecting it to other words in the same sentence， and then moving on to the next word．This process uses many parts of the brain at one time． It can't be sped up．
Some people who say they are able to speed read are simply skimming． Skimming involves reading a passage quickly and only looking for certain words or sentences．
Skimmers can figure out the main idea of a passage﹣especially if it's a topic they're familiar with﹣﹣but they will not be able to remember all the pieces of information．
So is there a way to become a faster reader？ Research suggests that you should try to improve the number of your words and simply read more．
（1）According to Schotter， which of the following is TRUE？
A． It's good for students to read at super high speeds．
B． Speed reading courses are supported by real science．
C． Reading includes four steps，it's not easy to finish．
D． Speed reading courses and books are useful for us．
（2）What can we know from Paragraph 5？
A． Skimmers will not forget all the pieces of information．
B． You must read the passage carefully when you are skimming it．
C． Skimming focuses on all the words or sentences of a passage．
D． By skimming， skimmers may find the main idea of a passage．
（3）According to this passage， how to read faster？
A． Learn more words and read more．
B． Taking speed reading courses can help．
C． Read more books about speed reading．
D． See the words at super﹣high speeds．

Before class starts， set a goal for yourself． A goal gets your mind ready to learn． It gives you an extra purpose in class． It can even help you focus on what your teacher is saying．
3．Check： Are you muted？
Before the lesson starts， mute yourself! Background noises may not sound loud on your side． But even tiny sounds can be louder through speakers!
4．Practice active listening
Here are ways to practice active listening： Keep your eyes on the screen，____looking around the room． Nod， smile and react to what you're hearing．
5．Follow your teacher's instructions
Usually your teacher can see you raise your hand． That's not so easy on a video classroom． So be sure to follow instructions． Your teacher will let you know how to show that you want to ask or answer a question．
6．Keep calm and troubleshoot
Has something gone wrong during？ Screen froze？ Bumped（被挤出）from the class？ App crashed？ Don't be nervous! Problems like this will happen． It is not the end of the world． Try logging（登录）back on， check your Wi-Fi or restart your computer if you need to． If all else fails， keep calm﹣and try logging on again!

A yearbook is a tradition of high school life in the United States．The book contains（包含） the name，photo， and signature （签名） of each student in your final year， so that you can remember who you went to school with．A 15﹣year﹣old girl Catherine Cook and her brother David wanted more than this．They thought，"Why not have a yearbook online？You could learn about people's music tastes， the movies they like，and so on．"

In China， writing brushes， ink sticks， paper and ink stones are called the Four Treasures of Study．Among the high﹣quality （质量） treasures， the writing brush produced in Huzhou， the ink stick produced in Huizhou， the xuan paper made in Xuancheng and the ink stone made in Duanxi are the best﹣known．
The writing brushes can be used to draw the pictures on painted potteries （陶器）．They are mainly made of the hair of animals．Those made of wool are called yanghao and those made of the weasel's （鼬）tail hair are called langhao． Their artistic effects （效果） in writing and painting cannot be copied by any other pens．
The ink stick is the pigment （颜料） used in writing and painting．The ink stick produced in Huizhou is of high quality． A story goes like this： Two famous skilled men Xi Chao and his son produced a kind of high﹣quality ink stick． As a result， the Emperor Li Yu in the Southern Tang Dynasty agreed to give them the family name"Li"， From then on， the fame of the Li Ink Stick was widespread． In the Song Dynasty， its producing area was changed into Huizhou， and it was then called the Hui Ink Stick．
Paper is among the four great inventions in ancient China． The famous xuan paper appeared in the Sui and Tang dynasties． In Xuanzhou， Anhui Province where the xuan paper is produced，it's said that Cai Lun's pupil Kong Dan took the job of producing paper but failed to make perfect white paper． Later he happened to see the ebony （檀木） in the rivers． It was wet with the water and turned white． Then he used the bark （树皮） to produce the world﹣famous xuan paper．

You've been learning words since you were a tiny baby． At first， you learned them only by hearing other people talk． Now that you're a reader， you have another way to learn words． What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don't know what it means？ （1）
Say it
First， sound it out．Then say it to yourself． （2） ．Sometimes you know a word in your head but you don't know what it looks like in print． So if you match up what you know and what you read ﹣ you have the word!
Use context
If this doesn't work， take the next step： look at the context ﹣ the other words and sentences around it．Read this sentence：When it rained，the dog looked for shelter in the doorway．（3） Rain and in the doorway might give you helpful information．
（4）
If the context doesn't help， look at the parts of the word． Does it have any parts you know？These can help you understand what it means． If you don't know the meaning of miner， try looking at parts of the word． You might know that a mine is a place underground where people get coal and other valuable things． A lot of times， ﹣er at the end of a word means"a person who does something"．So a miner might be someone who works in a mine．
Look it up
If the three steps above don't work， you can look it up． （5） ﹣either a book or online．
Nobody knows the meaning of every word， but good readers know how to understand words they don't know．
根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项．
A． Use word parts
B． Look at the words
C． It might sound like a word you know
