In Canada and the United States, there is a new group of children called“satellite kids”, who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.Asians are immigrating to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before.Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the West.In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university.Students must first pa the strict national examination.However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university and anyone who wants to go can go.As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East.Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they mi their homes.Because of these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to work while their children study in the West.Therefore, these children become “satellite kids”, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kid”.Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kid” problem.Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school.To be a “satellite kid” means to grow up in a country where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well.Also, it means to grow up lonely, because your parents are elsewhere.What these “satellite kids” will probably say to their parents is that it’s better to have parents around than to have a university education.60.Some Asian parents send their kids abroad because _______.A.all foreign universities are better than the ones in their own countriesB.they hope their children may easily find a job there
C.the kids may not be accepted by universities in their own countriesD.the kids want to improve their English and make foreign friends 61..“Satellite kids” refer to Asian kids ________.A.with university educationB.speaking no EnglishC.without parentsD.living abroad alone 62.What is the main idea of the paage?
A.Parents want better education for their kids.B.Kids in foreign countries alone are badly in need of care from family.C.Parents feel lonely and mi their families.D.Canadians and Americans begin to notice the “satellite kids” problem.C
Mom was right!If you say thank you, for even the smallest gift or slightest show of kindne, you’ll feel happy.Gratitude, says Robert A.Emmons, a profeor of psychology at the University of
三门峡外国语高中2015届暑假作业英语试题卷
（五）California, is an important element of happine.In his recent book, Thanks, Emmons uses the first major study on gratitude to prove mom’s point.In acknowledging and developing this much-ignored expreion of thankfulne, he explains how people have benefited----even improved their health.As one of the leading scholars of the positive psychology movement, he admits gratitude may be difficult to expre.He advises you to begin by admitting that life is good and full of events and elements that make daily existence a wonder.Second, recognize that the source of life’s goodne is more than just you.That source may be your mom, a friend, partner, child, colleague at work or play, or any combination of these.Gratitude is always other-directed, notes Emmons.You can be pleased or angry with yourself and feel guilty about doing something wrong, but you can never be grateful to or for yourself.Expreing gratitude shouldn’t be a reaction;it should be a state of mind.To feel grateful when life is a breeze and you have more than you need is easy.To feel grateful in time of crisis—anger, hatred and bitterne is easier.Also, too many people are aware of life’s bleings only after these are lost.It’s crisis and chaos----danger, disease, disability and death----that bring many individuals to realize just how dependent they are on others.Yet it’s the way each of us begins life and ends it.It’s too bad that so many people waste those decades in between laboring under the illusion they are self-sufficient, says Emmons.The abundance of voices expreing gratitude from his studies of individuals with chronic health problems is many.But Emmons goes beyond his “groundbreaking” science to make his case for gratitude by including the inspirational writings of philosophers, novelists and saints, as well as the beliefs of various religions and their respective scriptures.Taken together, these observations are summed up quite nicely by famous humanist Albert Schweitzer, who said the secret of life is “giving thanks for everything.”
To enable and embrace gratitude, Emmons encourages the readers of Thanks to keep a gratitude diary.He even provides easy-to-follow directions on how to practice and develop gratitude.I’m not a reader or advocate of self-help books, but I am thankful for the reference I found in a newspaper article to the research Emmons was conducting on gratitude involving organ donors and recipients.The chance discovery led me to this book.Mom implied that kindne seems to find its way back to the giver because life really is all about giving, receiving and repaying.So I’ll pay attention to her profeional advice and say: Thank you, profeor Emmons.63.What is the text mainly discued?
A.There are many ways of being thankful.B.Gratitude is important to happine.C.Mom is great for her being thankful.D.Being thankful will keep you fit.64.The author mentions Robert A.Emmons’ book Thanks in order to prove that ___.A.Profeor Emmons supports mom’s study on psychology.B.mom is as great a psychologist as Profeor Emmons.C.Profeor Emmons is a famous psychologist.D.mom is right about her viewpoint on gratitude.65.It will be easier for you to feel grateful when ___________.A.you live a comfortable lifeB.you receive gifts on your birthdayC.you get help during your hard timesD.you are congratulated on your succe 66.What is the opinion of Profeor Emmons?
A.It is enough to thank others orally.B.Whether you are thankful is always up to you.C.Remember to be thankful anytime and anywhere.D.It is easier to be thankful for yourself than for others.D
Proverbs are quite common in spoken English.We don’t normally put them in a composition or a letter.Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean.Here are a few examples.“Once bitten, twice shy.” If a dog bites me, I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it.This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs.If you have been cheated at a shop, you will not go to the same shop again.“A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” If I am a hunter, trying to catch birds, it is better to catch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them.Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.“Too many cooks spoil the broth(soup)”.When too many people do something, they get in each other’s way and do a bad job.“To pour oil on troubled waters” is to try to calm things down.Oil is lighter than water.If a ship is in trouble at sea, another ship may come to help it.The second ship can send small boats to rescue people.However, it may first pour oil on the sea to make the sea le rough.“Don’t be a dog in a manger” means “ Don’t be selfish.” In a stable , the manger is the place where the horse’s food is put.Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food.The dog does not want to eat the hay in the manger but it will not let the horse eat it.“He is sitting on the fence” means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it.He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides, perhaps waiting to see which side will win.三门峡外国语高中2015届暑假作业英语试题卷
（五）7“He who pays the piper calls the tune.” A piper is a musician.The man who employs or pays a musician can say what tunes the musician will play.Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan, he can say how it will be carried out.8“You can’t get blood out of a stone” means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want.e.g.you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.67.Peter has a bicycle which is much too small for him but he does not want to let his younger brother ride on it.His mother is angry and says to him: ______.A.You can’t get blood out of a stoneB.Don’t be a dog in a mangerC.The early bird gets the wormD.To pour oil on troubled waters
68.Mr.Wang paid for a new school.Some people didn’t like the design of the school but they didn’t argue with Mr.Wang because ______.A.he was sitting on the fenceB.once bitten, twice shy
C.he who pays the piper calls the tune D.a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush 69.Mrs.Lin wanted to buy a new dre.Her husband suggested that she buy it from a shop near their home.Mrs.Lin disagreed because she had been cheated by that shop.So she said: “I won’t go there again because ______.”A.a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushB.I am sitting on the fence
C.once bitten, twice shyD.too many cooks spoil the broth 70.Mr.Brown had quite a good job in Hong Kong but he thought that if he went to Singapore, he might get a much better job with more money and a larger house.His wife didn’t want him to leave his job in Hong Kong and she reminded him that ______.A.a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushB.too many cooks spoil the broth
