New Players Help Build Emotional Intelligence in Children

Children of all ages gathered in New York City recently for the International Toy Fair. Hidden among already popular toys were new, high-tech educational products. Educational products are important to the toy industry. In recent years, parents have shown an interest in STEM-related toys—ones that help teach Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. 【1】 These toys reportedly not only help raise intelligence in children, but also their emotional quotient, or EQ.

Companies showed off their products last week at New York's Jacob Javitz Convention Center. PlelQ is a set of plastic toy blocks. It uses augmented reality (增强现实) technology to teach words, numbers and other things. Edison Duran directs the company that makes PlelQ. She showed people at the toy fair how virtual images appear on the blocks when they are held in front of a tablet camera. Intelligence includes intrapersonal (内心的) skills—processing information within one's mind—and interpersonal skills, or dealing with other people. 【2】.

On the other side of the convention center, Karen Hu demonstrated an educational robot called Woobo. The robot comes programmed with educational games and activities. Children use its touchscreen face to get them started. 【3】 Hu described how the robot can help a child who has autism spectrum disorder (自闭症障碍). “He [ the child] can communicate with Woobo and he can follow some of the instruction Woobo is giving because he think(s) of this as a companion instead of a parent or someone else telling him to certain things.”

A more low-tech companion is a toy animal called Manimo. The manufacturer says this toy can help reduce hyperactivity in children and improve their ability to pay attention to a subject. Whether it's a snake, dolphin or other animal, Manimos can be placed across a child's arm, chest or neck. Karine

Ganger, president of Manimo, explained that adding deep pressure to one's body can help calm a child before bedtime.

It remains to be seen whether a game or toy can improve emotional intelligence. 【4】.

A．Duran said PlelQ builds on both by having children act as teacher or guide to a companion character.

B．Rated best by of the year, it helps to enhance a child's personality development.

C．But toy-makers are doing what they can to help parents in their efforts to raise well-rounded children.

D．But now, toy-makers are working to create products improving a child s emotional intelligence as well.

E．The purpose of the toys is to develop children's IQ.

F．Toys that work as companions also aid in social development.

22、   We all want to be successful in our work. But what happens when our achievements come at the risk of losing important friendships? If your friends didn't receive what they were hoping for, your success could make them feel like they've been “left in the dust”. But does that mean that we shouldn't enjoy our achievements in case we displease someone or that we should feel sorry for being successful when others aren't?

Those of us who value friendships and close working relationships might feel embarrassed for achieving more than our friends. But we deserve our success, and nothing should take it away. Jealousy is only natural, but It’s often unreasonable, too. Your success is probably not connected with your friends' progress, so you shouldn't feel bad about achieving your goals. If your friends stay unfriendly, don’t be afraid to keep yourself away from them. You are not responsible for their weaknesses, and nor should they treat you sharply for furthering your work.

On the other hand, your friends may think highly of your recent success while hiding their real feelings. They could be jealous, angry or sad that they are not progressing at the same rate. So, be careful not to boast. It's a thin line between pride and self-importance, and by crossing the line, you may risk losing team support.

Next time you want to boast about your end-of-year win, or high-class new office, consider your listeners. Maybe your friends narrowly missed out on a position-raising, or experienced pay cuts which meant they didn't get what they were expecting. If your work is on a rising path, it doesn't mean that's the case for everyone.

Perhaps a step forward in your work has meant that you don't spend as much time with your friends as you used to. If you've changed a post or moved to a new office, take the time to stay in touch with old friends. Chances are that in the build-up to your success you've built strong relationships along the way. Don't let that hard work go to waste by losing touch with them.

【1】From the first two paragraphs, it can be inferred that ________.

A.we should enjoy our deserving success

B.our success will certainly hurt our friends

C.friends will surely help us achieve success

D.our success is connected with our friends’ progress

【2】Which of the following best explains “boast” underlined in Paragraph 3?

A.Show up. B.Stand out.

C.Talk big. D.Keep silent.

【3】What should we do if our friends support our success?

A.Improve ourselves further.

B.Consider their feelings.

C.Help them make progress.

D.Make them proud of us.

【4】What does the text mainly talk about?

A.How to share our success with friends.

B.How to enjoy our success to the fullest.

C.How to keep relationships between friends.

D.How to keep friendships while enjoying achievements.

23、Lost &Found

Recently, CTtransit changed the Lost &. Found policy and procedures. If you have lost an item on a CTtransit bus, you must first call Lost & Found and speak with a Customer Service Representative for your area. If CTtransit is in possession of your lost item, and you can confirm ownership, then you may schedule a time to get your item back.

If you have scheduled a time with Customer Service to get back your lost item, when you arrive at the facility gate, give your name to the security guard. You must have a photo ID available to show CTtransit Security or another form of valid ID to confirm your date of birth and address. The security guard will direct you to the pick-up location.

If you misplace something on the bus, there is a good chance that we will find it. Each day, operators pick up articles left on their buses and turn them in to the office. Lost items that are recovered are kept for 30 days. CTtransit is not responsible for items left on the buses.

24、   Just as a hungry brain craves (渴望) food, a lonely brain craves people. A new brain study demonstrates this. After being left alone, it shows people's brains would be activated at the sight of other people. The action was in the same brain region that speeds up when a hungry person sees food.

Livia Tomova, a neuroscientist, who studies how the brain produces mental activities, and her colleagues began this study. They recruited (招募) 40 people. On one day, the participants had to fast—not eat anything at all—for 10 hours. On another day, the same people were placed in a room for 10 hours. They couldn't see anyone. No friends, no family and no social media. They weren't even allowed to check their email. After both days, Tomova and her colleagues put the people in a MRI machine. It shows activity in the brain by tracking how much blood is flowing to each region.

At the end of each day, the participants showed high activity in a brain area called the midbrain. The scientists were interested in two, small areas within it. Both areas produce dopamine, a chemical that is important in craving and rewards. The two areas activated when hungry participants saw pictures of tasty pizza or juicy hamburgers. After the volunteers had been isolated, those brain areas became active when they saw social activities they missed. It might be playing sports or chatting with friends.

The midbrain plays an important part in people's motivation to seek food or friends. In fact, it responds to food and social signals even when people aren't hungry or lonely. But hunger and loneliness increased the reactions and made people's responses specific to the thing they were missing. And the more hunger or isolation the volunteers said they were experiencing, the stronger the activity in this part of the brain. Tomova and her colleagues published their results November 23 in Nature Neuroscience.

【1】How does Tomova test out the result of the study?

A．By stimulating desire.

B．By controlling blood flow.

C．By monitoring brain activity.

D．By examining mental activities.

【2】What do we know about midbrain?

A．It consists of two areas.

B．It helps motivate desire for food.

C．It stops working when people are full.

D．It decreases responses to lost friends.

【3】What does the underlined “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A．A midbrain area.

B．A social activity.

C．A volunteer.

D．A hamburger.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A．Dopamine—a Sure Sign of Age

B．Midbrain—a Nest for the Thoughts

C．Hunger Makes Mental Health Struggle

D．Loneliness Makes Our Brains Need People

26、阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。

On a sunny Saturday in June, Alyson, 3, squealed(尖叫) with laughter as she and her mother, Marlen, played hide-and-seek in the front yard of their home. With Marlen close behind, tiny Alyson flashed into the backyard of an elderly neighbor. About halfway across the yard, Alyson suddenly disappeared, seemingly swallowed whole by a barely visible opening in the ground. Marlen screamed.

The neighbor’s caretaker, Luz, 26, was preparing dinner in the neighbor’s kitchen and assumed the shrieks were the sounds of children playing. But she ran outside anyway and found Marlen sobbing and Alyson’s sister Damary, 25, kneeing on the grass, dialing 911.

“Alyson fell in the hole！” Damary cried to Luz. Luz gave a quick glance down the hole in disbelief and saw only darkness. Then she heard Alyson’s wails(哭泣) from deep underground. “Hang on there, sweety. We’ll get you out soon.”

Luz ran inside the house and down to the basement for a ladder,which happened to be not very long. She then settled for a gray extension cord(延长线) to use as a rope with which to rappel(用绳索下降) into the hole. Back in the yard, she and Damary used their hands to dig at the hole,  widening the opening from 7 inches in diameter to about 20 inches.Marlen sat on the grass,too distracted to help.

At the thought that Alyson might get hurt and was too young to grasp and climb the rope on her own, Luz made up her mind to go down herself. When the police detective Aaron arrived a few minutes later, Luz was already in the hole up to her waist.

“Get out of here,” the officer told Luz, lifting her up by the arm. “It’s dangerous for you.”

“It’s more dangerous for the Baby,” she argued, “She’s going to die.”

注意：

1．续写词数应为150左右；

The detective begged Luz to wait for help, but she determined.
