There is good and bad news for parents today. The word "mother" has been voted the most beautiful word in the English language. But "father"' failed even to make it on to the list of the 70 best words compiled in a survey of thousands of non-English speakers across the globe. From Ankara to Zurich, "mother" was voted above "love”, "smile", and “blossom”.
"Mother-in-law" was also nowhere to be seen. Fanny that may be the hyphens disqualified it.
In second place was "passion", followed by "smile", "love" and "eternity”. With "fantastic”, "destiny", "freedom", "liberty" and "tranquility" completing the top 10. The results were revealed by the British Council which carried out a huge survey of more than 40,000 people in 102 non-English speaking countries.
The study was undertaken to celebrate the groups 70th anniversary -- and it threw up a few surprising entries to the list. "
"It's interesting that 'mother' , the only word of the 70 that describes a direct relationship between people, came top of the poll said British Council spokesman Greg Selby. "It is great to see words in the survey that are so positive and suggestive of the British Council's purpose-- words such as ' freedom', 'liberty' , ' peace' , ' renaissance' and 'destiny'".
Those surveyed were allowed to choose their words on either meaning or sound, said
Mr. Selby. This explained why words that are satisfying to pronounce, like "flip-flop", made the list.
Famous mothers like Kate Winslet, Elle Macpherson and Claudia Schiffer have all done their bit to make the word popular.
Kate, 28, even pulled out of Woody Allen's new film to spend more time with her young family.
Singer Robbie Williams is proud to declare his love for his mother while comedian Peter Kay endured a marathon British tour to pay for a new house for his mum.
The mood was added to by Britney Spears, yesterday as she expressed her love for her mother.
She said, "My mum was and still is a super-mum. She is just so much fun and I think the reason why I relate to her so well is because she's a young mum. "
She added, "Mum, thanks for being the best role model -- you rock."
60. Which of the following is true?
A. "Father" wasn’t on the list of the 70 best words in survey of English speakers all over the world.
B. "Mother" is not the only word of the 70 that shows a direct relationship between people.
C. Only in Ankara and Zurich, "mother" was voted the first beautiful word.
D. "Mother-in-law" wasn't on the list of the best words.
61. What call we conclude from the passage?
A. It's Kate Winslet, Elle Macpherson and Claudia Schiffer that made their efforts to make the word "mother" popular.
B. Kate stopped shooting a new film in order to stay wit-h her family.
C. Peter Kay took part in a marathon in order to pay for a new house for his mother.
D. Britney Spears took pride in her mother.
62. What’s Grey Selby?

Compared to the other parts of the body, our ears don’t ask for much. They don't need to be brushed once a day like your teeth. But they need some special care, especially if you like listening to music with earphones.
Maybe your mum or dad has told you, "Turn that down before you go deaf!" Well, they are quite right. Loud noise might cause hearing loss for a short time or even forever. Think that earphones are a good way to escape from tour parents’ eyes? Well. It may not be as good a way as you expect. American doctors have studied a group of 44,000 people who used earphones more than 15 hours per week. The doctors found that 37,000 of them were getting hearing problems.
If you use earphones for to8 long a time, your ears might feel painful. You could also lose your hearing for the rest of your life.
So don’t wear your earphones too long. Use them less than one hour a day.
Want sharp hearing? Don’t forget to do the following:
Try to stay away from places where there is too much noise, like a disco. If you have to go, wear earplugs.
When swimming, remember to put earplugs into your ears to stop water from getting in.
Never put anything sharp into your ears. If you think you have too much earwax, ask your mum or dad to help you clean it out.
Keep these things in mind! Then you won't be saying "WHAT???" when you are older.

In a time of low academic achievement by children in the United States, many Americans are turning to Japan, a country of high academic achievement and economic success, for possible answers. However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. In one investigation, 300 Japanese and 210 American pre-school teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early Childhood education. Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents listed "to give children a good start academically" as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. On the contrary over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices. To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as persistence, concentration, and the ability to function as a member of a group,. "The vast majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.
In the recent comparison of Japanese and American preschool education, 91 percent of Japanese respondents chose providing children with a group experience as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. Sixty-two percent of the more individually-oriented Americans listed group experience as one of their top three choices. An emphasis on the importance of the group seen in Japanese early childhood education continues into elementary school education.
Like in America, there is diversity in Japanese early childhood education. Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential development. In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools.
Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children’s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities. Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.
71. We learn from the first paragraph that many Americans believe ______.
A. Japanese preschool education emphasizes academic instruction
B. Japan's economic success is a result of its scientific achievements
C. Japan's higher education is superior to theirs
D. Japanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parents
72. Most Americans surveyed believe that preschools should also attach importance to ____.
A. parental guidance B. problem solving
C. group experience D. individually-oriented development
73. In Japan's preschool education, the focus is on ___.
A. tapping children’s potential B. shaping children's character
C. preparing children academically D. developing children's artistic interests
74. Free play has been introduced in some Japanese kindergartens in order to ____.
A. enrich children's knowledge B. cultivate children’s creativity
C. broaden children’s horizon D. lighten children's study load
75. Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university-based kindergartens?
A. They can do better in their future studies.
B. They can be individually oriented when they grow up.
C. They can have better chances of getting a first-rate education.
D. They can accumulate more group experience there.

Dear editor,
Nowadays few people pay attention to dealing with waste batteries. I’m writing to say something about it.
Environmentalists think we should recycle waste batteries. If not dealt with properly, they will seriously pollute the environment. Above all, the battery factories should be responsible for this. At the same time, our government should learn from some foreign countries, giving the factories a subsidy to recycle and deal with waste batteries.
However, batter factories argue that it is not only their responsibility to recycle and deal with waste batteries. They have to take profits into consideration and it is a waste of labor and money to do it well.
In my opinion, all the people should be educated to protect the environment. Our government should help battery factories and we must throw waste batteries here and there.
Best wishes
Yours,
Mu Mu
