When my son, Justin, was four, he found a caterpillar(毛毛虫)and put it in a box. Each day he         it fresh grass and leaves . In a few weeks, the caterpillar became fat and was ready to sleep. One morning we found        had become a cocoon(茧).
Justin was       . He knew a moth(飞蛾)or butterfly was going to be       .
“Dad !      is happening. Come and look!” He shouted happily. We could clearly see the wings       . A few days later, a beautiful black moth broke free from its cocoon.
The next day, Justin took the        outside and opened it, and the little moth flew out. It flew around the yard twice,       , and landed on Justin’s arm. He picked it up and threw it in the air,        the moth came back again. He tried over and over to set it free, but each time it would return to his arm.
I believe the moth, just like a person, was afraid to        comfortable places and situations. It wanted to stay with something        and was afraid to move on and experience new things.
I was once that little moth. My cocoon was my mother’s love which made me comfortable.       the moth, I didn’t want to fly too far from it. When my first job required me to move to a new city, I was        but later I chose to move there. And finally, I found I was happy about my         .
Humans are animals of habit. We        change. However, if we hadn’t moved, we would not have experienced many new things. So spread your wings and fly.

Nearly all kids have had the same experience. They are eating in a restaurant with their parents. They finished the spaghetti minutes ago. Now, they are bored. Their little brother is kicking them under the table. He is also complaining about the desserts(餐后甜点). Yet their parents are still eating and talking…and talking…and talking.
“Be patient.” One parent says. “We’ll have dessert soon.”
All kids know what happens next. After dessert, their parents drink coffee. Then they talk some more. Again, the children must wait. They have been in school all day and would rather be running and playing. Instead, they must sit in a chair and stare at a wall.
Going to a restaurant doesn’t have to be this way. Many restaurants say they are “family-friendly”. Family restaurants, such as fast-food restaurants should play areas for children. At these restaurants, almost every play area is a big room full of climbing equipment. The room is usually, packed with happy kids. Parents can eat while the children play. Everyone is happy.
The real problem begins when families want to eat a fancier meal(大餐). The parents don’t want to hurry through the meal but talk to each other. They do not have bored children pestering(烦扰) them about leaving. That’s no fun for kids either. For them, going to a nicer restaurant means just one thing: sit still and be quiet.
On family blogs across the Web, dozens of parents post the same question all the time; are there any nicer restaurants with play areas for kids? Research shows that some nicer restaurants do have play areas. In warmer cities, it is easier for restaurants to build play areas outside. For example, at one restaurant kids can sail tiny little motor boats in a small, shallow pond. Parents can sit on a beautiful yard and watch the kids play. Some nicer restaurants even have indoor play areas. Research also shows that these restaurants serve more than just burgers, chickens and fries.
So, it’s possible for a restaurant to provide both food and a place where kids can play. These restaurants seem to be popular, too. For some, families must have reservation days in advance. For others, families might be forced to wait in long lines. Clearly, quality food and safe play areas are both good for business.
小题1:Why do children get unhappy at the restaurant?
A.Because they can’t join in their parents’ talk.
B.Because the dessert isn’t served in time.
C.Because they can do nothing but wait.
D.Because the food there isn’t delicious.
小题2:What is the real problem mentioned in the passage?
A.Children don’t like eating fancier food.
B.Not many nicer restaurants provide play areas.
C.Parents don’t trouble to comfort their bored kids.
D.People have to wait for seats in nicer restaurants.
小题3:What conclusion can we draw from the research?
A.It’s common for nicer restaurants to provide good food and play areas.
B.Building play areas is more difficult for restaurants in colder cities.
C.Serving more kinds of foods may help restaurants to make more money.
D.It’s possible for restaurants to find a balance to make both happy.
小题4:What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A.Cities need to help develop restaurant business.
B.Children are supposed to be much more patient.
C.Restaurants are supposed to give kids some space.
D.Parents need to care more about their kids when eating.

No one wants to look silly or do the wrong thing at a new job. It is important to make the right impression(印象)from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place.

② Get to work on time . Give yourself an extra 15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time.
③ Pay attention to introductions. You may be introduced to your workmates. They will be important to you. They are the ones who will answer your questions when the boss is not around.
④ Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your supervisor has told you what is expected of you. If you are not told your duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself.
