    WASHINGTON — President Obama and his wife, Michelle, handed out Halloween treats to area children and military families at the White House Sunday evening．

           Local students between 6 and 14 years old, along with children from military families, were invited to celebrate Halloween on the North Lawn．

           The president and first lady, along with Mrs．Obama's mother, Marian Robinson, spent about 30 minutes passing out goodie bags．Obama wished each child a happy Halloween as he distributed the treats, pausing occasionally for hugs or to comment on costumes．

           Later, the military families continued the celebration inside the White House．

           The first couple joked to assembled reporters about children walking the long driveway in order to work off （消化掉） the snacks．"This is the Let's Move method of trick-or-treating （不给糖就捣蛋）," Obama said, referring to Mrs．Obama's campaign to combat childhood obesity （肥胖）．

           The goodie bags contained a box of White House M&Ms, a cookie made by pastry chef （点心师） Bill Yosses, and dried fruit．

           As they made their way across the lawn, the children meet a vast range of costumed characters ranging from a spooky Frankenstein （科学怪人,小说《弗兰肯斯坦》的主角） to the Scarecrow from "The Wizard of Oz．" Music from a jazz band dressed in pirate gear rang out across the White House grounds．

           Multicolored pumpkins and gourds lined the driveway — individually, in gravity-defying stacks and as part of a large mound over 5 feet tall．Pumpkin-headed scarecrows （稻草人） made of cornstalks loomed over the path with menacingly raised arms．Under the White House portico, a mobile resembling bats flying through clouds fluttered around a lantern．

           Some of the local trick-or-treaters were students at Bancroft Elementary, which helps tend the first lady's White House garden, and Tubman Elementary, which has a relationship with the White House chefs．

           After trick-or-treating ended, the Obamas stood near the front door, welcoming the military families inside, helping children climb the short flight of steps and thanking parents for their service．

    What is the news report mainly about?

           A．President Obama and first lady celebrated Halloween with children．

           B．President Obama and his wife Michelle handed out Halloween treats to children．

           C．Children from military families were invited to celebrate Halloween at the White House．

           D．Trick-or-treaters met a vast range of costumed characters from Frankenstein to the Scarecrow．

           A．Goodie bags    

           B．Pumpkins and Gourds

    Young children whose mothers talk with them more frequently and in more detail about people’s thoughts and feelings tend to be better at taking another person’s perspective（观点）than other children of the same age.
    That’s what researchers from the University of Western Australia found in a new study published in the journal Child Development.
    “Parents who frequently put themselves in someone else’s shoes in conversations with their children make it more likely their children will be able to do the same,” said lead author Brad Farrant.
    Researchers of the UWA’s Telethon Institute for Child Health Research looked at the influence of how parents interact with their children to learn more about how people develop the ability to take another’s perspective.
    The two-year study involved more than 120 Australian children aged between four and six, including children with typically developing language and others delayed in language acquisition（习得）.
    The children completed tasks which were designed to assess their language skills, ability to infer others’ beliefs and use these to predict others’ behavior, and their ability to shift flexibly between different perspectives.
    Among children with typically developing language, the researchers found that mothers who talked more often and in greater detail about people’s thoughts and feelings — commenting on how another person might react to a particular situation as well as their own feelings about the topic — had children with better language skills and better perspective-taking skills.
    Children with delayed language acquisition were also delayed in their development of perspective-taking skills. This displays the role played by language as children develop the ability to take another’s perspective.
    “Solving the many challenges that the world faces today requires us all to get better at taking the perspective of other people,” said Brad Farrant.
    【小题1】According to the text, to help children gain better perspective-taking skills, parents should __________.

    A．give their children more chances to express themselves
    B．talk more with their children about people’s feelings
    C．encourage their children to guess other people’s thoughts
    D．spend more time playing with their children
    【小题2】Which of the following is TRUE about the study?
    A．Over one hundred American children took part in it.
    B．All the children had delayed in language acquisition.
    C．The children in the study were around five years old.
    D．Mothers helped their children to complete the tasks.
    【小题3】Which have an effect on the development of children’s perspective-taking skills?
    A．The surrounding environments.B．Mother’s perspectives.
    C．Personal characters.D．Language skills.
    【小题4】In the last paragraph, Brad Farrant __________.
    A．stressed the importance of perspective-taking skills
    B．expressed his concern about the world’s challenges
    C．showed how to take the perspective of other people
    D．explained why other people’s opinions are important
    【小题5】According to the text, we can learn __________.
    A．parents should talk to their children frequently no matter how old their children are
    B．it was Brad Farrant who wrote the study in Child Development herself
    C．the only way to improve language skill is talking to children more often
    D．parents who are always thinking about others will help their children do the same way

    In classrooms across the USA, students from different speech backgrounds give speeches in English. It is important to remember that the major goal of the speech is communication of ideas, not perfection of language skills. Therefore, as you listen to a speaker who is not fluent in the language, seek to understand what is being said by concentrating on the ideas of the message rather than on the specific words of the speaker. This may require a special kind of patience as well as the ability to take the perspective (视角) of the communicator. Perspective taking means that you can put yourself in the other person’s shoes. That is, you try to imagine what it would be like to give a speech in a foreign language to a group of native speakers of that language. Keep in mind that non-fluency is not linked to low intelligence or lack of education~ it is linked to experiences with the second language.

    These guidelines can help you be a better listener in these situations.

    1. Approach the speech with a positive attitude, and expect to understand.

    2. Listen all the way through. Make special efforts to keep your mind from wandering in the middle of the speech. It may help to take notes.

    3. Plan to give proper nonverbal (非语言的) feedback to prove your interest, patience, and support for the speaker.

    4. Control your negative emotional responses. Let's face it, it is difficult to deal with linguistic barriers (语言障碍), and people often get disappointed or bored when there are language differences.

    5. Do not laugh, even if the speakers do, at their language skills. Often they laugh nervously to relieve tension.

    68. What is the main idea of this passage?

    A. How to become a good listener.

    B. How to become a good speaker.

    C. We should take a positive attitude towards speech.

    D. How to communicate with others

    69. The underlined phrase "put yourself in the other person’s shoes" in the first paragraph means ____.

    A. to know one's shoes is to know one's problem

    B. try to wear the other person’s shoes

    C. understand others by trying on their shoes

    D. look at something from the point of others

    70. What can we learn from the passage?

    A. People should be strict with speakers speaking in a foreign language.

    B. Taking notes helps keep your mind from wandering in listening to a speech.

    C. Whenever the speaker is nervous, he laughs.

    D. It's hard to concentrate when the speaker is not fluent.

    71. What advice is given on listening to a speech?

    A. Believing you can understand every word of the speech.

    B. Showing your support for the speaker nonverbally.

    C. Laughing when the speaker laughs at himself.

    D. Commenting on the speech at times.
