7、A couple of weeks
ago，my oldest son, 9-year-old Hayden, came home
from school and told me about his friend
Katie’s blog. Then he asked, “Can
I start my
own blog?” I thought it was a great way for him to
learn new
things. So I asked, “What would you
want to write about? ” Then we had
a
chat about a few choices. Eventually, Hayden
decided on a particular
animal species so that
he could help other school kids learn about them.
That Friday night, we set up a blog for
him and Hayden's Animal Facts
was born. He has
posted four times so far. As we talked about
starting a
blog, I thought about some problems
of a child blogging. Here are a few of
the
considerations that I had.
Blogging isn’t
a popularity contest. At first, Hayden cared too
much
about how many views he had. After a
couple of discussions, he now
realizes that
it’s more important to come up with helpful
contents for
those who want to learn more
about animals.
Online security. I’m
concerned about online security, so I make sure
that there isn’t too much personal information
about him.
The value of persistence (坚持）.
In so many ways, blogging is like a
marathon.
Keeping blogging teaches him the value of
persistence.
Writing and spelling skills.
Much to my surprise, Hayden is terrible at
spelling. However, he loves writing, has a
great imagination and is always
working on
little books, so hopefully the process of blogging
will help him
with his writing and spelling
skills.
1. Why did Hayden want to start a
blog?
A. His mother reminded him to.
B. He was inspired by others.
C. He
wanted to improve his writing.
D. He wanted to
increase his popularity.
2. How did the author
feel at Hayden’s idea?
A. Interested. B.
Angry. C. Surprised. D. Doubtful.
3. What does
Hayden want to do with his blog now?
A. To
gain more views from others.
B. To win an
important contest.
C. To help others learn
about animals.
D. To encourage others to
protect animals.
8、At 18, many American
young people go off on their own. They go away
to college or find full-time jobs, and they
often pay for their own
apartments. Some get
married and start families. This independence （独立）
is learned from childhood.
From an
early age, American children learn to do things by
themselves. Children as young as 2 begin to
put away their toys and dress
themselves. At
3, many children do simple chores like setting the
table.
Using money wisely is also taught
early. As soon as a child
understands the
value of money, he or she receives a weekly
allowance(零花
钱）. This is used for things
the child wants, like toys or treats. The child
can
spend or save it， usually with little help
or advice from parents. If the child
wants
more money, it must be earned by doing extra
chores.
Children are taught early in life
to think for themselves. They are
allowed to
make some decisions and make mistakes.
Failure(失败）often
teaches more than success.
1. Many American young people begin to live on
themselves
.
A. at
eighteen years old
C. after they get married
B. from childhood
D. from an early age
2. An American child learns to
at the age of 2.
A. find a full-time job
B. make decisions

clothes
D. do lots of chores
3. A child
can get some more money by .
A. understanding the value of money
B.
helping the rich

doing extra chores

independence of American children
B. the value
of money
C. the guidance from parents
D.
failure and success of American children
