Many parents like setting family rules for their kids. When kids break rules, parents will give them some punishments, which aren’t included in rules. In fact, when you tell your kids about a new rule, you should talk with them about the price they should pay for breaking the rule — what the punishment will be.
Punishments you set should be reasonable, without violence or threat (暴力或威脅). For example, if you find your son smoking, you may limit his social activities for two weeks. You should punish your kids only in ways you have discussed before the rule is broken. A study shows that the most popular punishment is to limit kids’ TV time.
It’s understandable that you’ll be angry when rules are broken. Punishment is a way to express your anger, but it’s not a very good one. Sharing your feelings of anger, disappointment or sadness with your kids can have a better effect (效果) on them. Try to do that. When your kids know what they have done has made you sad, they will feel compunctious. When they know their actions influence you greatly, they will obey rules better.
Rules are made to help your kids behave better. If your rules or ways of punishment make them unhappy or under a lot of pressure, are they helpful?

A．How to make rules.B．Why to make rules.

Saving water is an important part of going green. As water becomes less and polluted more, conservation (保護) becomes more and more important. The less water you use, the less wastewater will end up in our rivers and lakes. Wasting water means that more water needs to be treated and cleaned, a process that requires quite a lot of energy.
As it is said above, cutting down on water usage is one of the most important things you can do for your local environment and the planet as a whole. That is why more green households are going blue: cutting down their water footprint by conserving and harvesting (收獲) water.
It may seem like a big concept, but going blue starts with small changes that everyone can make. Something as simple as turning off the tap while you brush your teeth can save a lot of water. Wash your fruits and vegetables in a bowl rather than under a tap to save even more. Make sure that the taps are fully turned off every time you step away from the sink or the shower — all those little drips can add up to a lot of water waste.
Another way of reducing your water footprint is reducing your dependence on the main water supply. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home’s water needs. Many of us already practice rainwater harvesting in a small way. Collecting water from your gutters (檐溝) is a great way to keep your garden green without running the sprinkler (灑水器).
小題1:The underlined word “green” means ______ in this passage.
A．嫉妒B．環(huán)保C．未成熟的D．健康的
小題2:According to the passage, which is NOT the reason that people should save water?
A．Treating wastewater needs much energy.
B．The water on the earth is becoming less and less.
C．The water on the earth is becoming polluted more.
D．Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home’s water needs.
小題3:According to the passage, all of these can be used to save water except ______.
A．washing fruit and vegetables under a tap
B．using a bowl to wash your fruit and vegetables
C．making sure taps are fully turned off all the time
D．turning off the tap every time after brushing your teeth
小題4:Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A．Save Water by Turning off the Tap
B．How to Treat and Clean Wastewater
C．Keep Your Garden Green with Rainwater
D．Save Water Starting with Small Changes
小題5:From the passage, we can know that_____.
A．we can get enough water by harvesting
B．most people pay no attention to saving water
C．we can practice rainwater harvesting in a small way
D．harvesting water is more necessary than conserving it

London has a new magazine. But it is not printed(印刷) on paper. Everyone who has a television can receive it because it is on TV.
In order to read this magazine you have to have a decoder (解碼器). Each page of it is numbered, so you only have to dial the number to choose which subject you want to read about. There are all kinds of information ---everything is included from cooking to the latest sports news.
If you want to read the news, the first thing you have to do is to turn to the back page, which has an easy-to-remember page number, 100 for example. Then you start choosing what you want to read. The news is on page 101 to 109, so you put in the numbers and the news appears written across your screen. Perhaps you want to go out in the afternoon, so you press 181, and a brightly colored weather map appears on the screen. But the weather is terrible, so you decide to go shopping and dial 162 for a list of the week’s best bargains. But should you drive or take the train? To answer that question you only have to press 189 for the traffic report. It is very simple to use. But probably the best thing about the service is that it is being updated all the time. Journalists type new material directly onto the screen and the whole pages of the magazine can be replaced in minutes.
London already has three services. One, sent out by TV, is called ORACLE while the other two, on BBC, are called CEEFAX because they let you see facts. Although CEEFAX and ORACLE have been operating for some time, they have not been well publicized(宣傳). BBC engineers do not think that their idea will ever replace books and newspapers because they can be taken with you everywhere. But many people would agree that is a breakthrough(突破) as great as the invention of printing, which could not just change our reading habits but our whole way of life.
小題1: We can know from the passage that in London        .
A．the magazine is available at any local home
B．most of the postmen will lose their jobs some day
C．everyone can read this magazine if they have a television
D．the readers can get various kinds of information staying at home
小題2:In the sentence “Each page of it is numbered,” the word “it” refers to the        .
A．magazine B．programC．decoderD．subject
小題3:According to the passage, the “decoder” is used to help people        .
A．work out the total(合計) of certain numbers
B．read the information sent by TV signals
C．go shopping and have other entertainment
D．receive some special TV program for entertainment
小題4:The passage is mainly about        .
A．a(chǎn) new magazine printed in London
B．a(chǎn)n up-to-date way of getting information
C．a(chǎn) popular TV program about magazines
