16、 in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table. I couldnt help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked: “So, how have you been?” And the boy, who could not have been more than seven or eight years old, replied, “Frankly, Ive be
17、en a little depressed lately. ”This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didnt find out we were “depressed” until we were in high school. The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in
18、recent years. Children dont seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to. Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists, why?Human development
19、is based not only on innate(天生) biological states, but also on patterns of access to social knowledge. Movement from one social rote(生搬硬套) to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: we tell sixth grade
20、rs things we keep hidden from fifth graders. In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation(揭示) machine has been brought in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, indiscriminately (不加区分地). Unable to resist the temptation, many c
21、hildren turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more vivid moving pictures. Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbol th
22、at must be memorized and practices. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials. 56. Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world_. A. through contact with societyB. naturally and by biological instinct (本能)C. gradually and under guidanceD. through exp
23、osure to social information57. The phenomenon that todays children seem adult like is due to _. A. the widespread influence of televisionB. the poor arrangement of teaching contentC. the fast pace of human intellectual developmentD. the constantly rising standard of living58.

24、vor of communication through print for children?A. It enables children to gain more social information. B. It develops childrens interest in reading and writing. C. It helps children to memorize and practice more. D. It can control what children are to learn. 59. What does the author think of the ch
25、ange in todays children?A. He feels amused by their premature (早熟) behavior. B. He thinks it is a phenomenon worthy of note. C. He considers it a positive development. D. He seems to be upset about it. BMost of what I really need to know about how to live, and what to do, and how to be, I learned in
26、 Kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery school. These are the things I learned：Share everything. Play fair. Dont hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Dont take things that arent yours. Say your
27、e sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work some every day. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watc
28、h for traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that. Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup - the
29、y all die. So do we. And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all：LOOK . Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation, ecology and politics and sane living. Think of what a better world it w
30、ould be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk about 3 oclock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation and other nations to always put things back where we found them and clean up our own messes. And it is still true, no mat

36、e JaneiroAccording to the hang-gliders of Rio, once youve swooped (俯冲) over the citys streets, gazing at the Sugar Loaf, and the city of Niteroion, the other side of Guanabara Bay, you will understand why birds are peaceful animals.

44、was eight when he was given a gun and trained to fight. By the time he was 13, he had been in two wars. Today, the former child soldier is becoming Kenyas hottest rap singer. His songs mix messages of peace with Jals personal story. When war reached Jals small village, the Sudan Peoples Liberation A
45、rmy (the SPLA), ordered children to be sent to UN-run refugee camps （难民营） in Ethiopia. “Then we were taken away from the camp to the bush for training.” he says.

The boys carried enough corn and flour for a month, the time they thought it would take to reach safety. But, three months later, they were still marching.
