Dana Csonka is an adult now． When she was 8， her house caught on fire． The fire left burn scars（伤疤）over 18 percent of her body， including on her face， neck and arms． She got better and returned to school． Her classmates were mean， though． They made fun of her scars． "I didn't have any friends，she said．

    Her nurses at the hospital had a suggestion． They said she should go to a camp for kids who had been burned． She went there every summer for 10 years． It helped her feel better． She met kids who could understand what she went through．

    The burn camp started in 1988． Since then， it has been offering children with burn scars a week of relief from looking different． Campers go there to swim， play games and do many other things．

    Kevin Aeling is 14． This is his second summer at the camp． A year and a half ago， a terrible fire left scars over 25 percent of his body．

    At first， he was not sure if he wanted to go to the camp． "He said， 'I don't want people to stare at me，"' said his mother． "I said， sKev， it's a burn camp． Other people are there who have burns．'" He ended up loving it． After camp， his mother noticed a difference． He was no longer embarrassed about the special clothes he had to wear for his scars． He was more comfortable being himself．

    Every year， the Thursday of the camp week is Fire Truck Day． Fire trucks arrive， along with campers from previous（以前的）years， doctors and nurses， and family members． Campers can see fire trucks up close and talk with firefighters． Sometimes， they are the very firefighters who rescued the campers months or years earlier． Fire Truck Day allows them to see each other in a happy situation， which is always the campers 5 most unforgettable day．

A． She got burned in her school．

B． She is an eight﹣year﹣old schoolgirl．

D． She was lonely because of her scars．

C． Kevin's mother was worried about him．

D． Kevin felt embarrassed at the camp．

（4）What do we know about Fire Truck Day from the last paragraph？

C． It's just for family members．

Are kids getting too much praise？ Too much praise may be doing kids more harm than good．

    A cover story in Scholastic Instructor magazine asks whether kids today are over﹣praised． The concern is that while trying to build up kids' confidence（自信），parents are paying little attention to kids' real goals and achievements． In a recent study， eighth graders in Korea and the United States were asked whether they were good at math． Among the American students， 39 percent said they were excellent at math， compared to just 6 percent of the Korean eighth graders． But the reality was somewhat different． The Korean kids scored far better than the over﹣confident American students．

    The disadvantage of too much praise is that kids may start to focus on the reward rather than what they are learning， Worse， when a student fails， whose confidence comes from a blind sense of achievement rather than his or her actual abilities， the result can be devastating（毁灭性的）．This doesn't mean we shouldn't praise our kids or that teachers shouldn't try to build up their students 5 self﹣confidence． But self﹣confidence should be the result of good grades and real achievements， not empty praise from others．

    Last month， Cognitive Daily reported that parents and teachers should be specific rather than general when they offer praise． An example of general praise is telling a child， "You're smart．" Specific praise would be to say， "You did a good job on reading．， or "You did great on your math test．" Kids who receive general praise about their abilities are more likely to show "helpless" behavior when they meet with problems with learning， compared with kids who receive specific praise about their achievement on a task． The reason： a child who knows she's a smart girl feels defeated（挫败的）if she has trouble reading a sentence． But a child who has been told she is a good reader is more likely to have confidence in that specific ability and work a little harder to deal with a more difficult book．

（1）What can we learn from the study of the eighth graders in Paragraph 2？　　

A． American students are over﹣praised．

B． Over﹣confident students may achieve less．

（2）According to Paragraph 3， kids' self﹣confidence should come from　　．

A． teachers 5 love and support

B． what they get from parents

C． a blind sense of achievement

D． what they are able to do well

（3）Which of the following best explains "specific" underlined in Paragraph 4？　　

A． Exact．

B． Careful．

C． Scientific．

D． Professional

（4）What will kids getting general praise do in the face of problems with learning？　　

A． Ask others for advice．

B． Probably give up easily．

C． Work them out alone．

D． Work harder than before．

（5）In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read the text？　　

A． Travel．

B． Business．

C．Education．

D． Energy．

Dear David，

    How's it going？ I'd like to tell you about my travel experiences．

    Last month， I went to Chengdu （1）　　 my vacation with my parents． Chengdu is in Sichuan， in the southwest of China． It's （2）　　for its beautiful mountains， forests and lakes． Many people go there to enjoy their vacation every year． We had a five﹣day trip and took many （3）　　． We saw pandas and monkeys． They were （4）　　cute that we couldn't help watching them．

    We had an exciting trip! I felt tired but happy． Please e﹣mail me soon （5）　　about your vacation．

How do you "laugh" when chatting with friends on the Internet？ Is it "haha" or "hehe"？ In Thailand， they use "555" （1）　　their laughter． What other different ways do people use around the world？

    It has been quite a long time since people （2）　　to use online expressions． Some common expressions of laughter include LOL， meaning laugh put out， and ROFL， rolling on the floor laughing． You can see the influence of these expressions everywhere． LOL （3）　　in Oxford English Dictionary in 2011．

    But how do other languages express meaning online symbols？ Most languages follow the rule that they have similar sounds． Sometimes， numbers or letters in one language （4）　　very different in another． "555" sounds like a person （5）　　in Chinese， but like laughter in Thai． This is because the number 5 is pronounced "ha" in Thai． "Jaja" is the Spanish way of writing "haha"． In Spanish， "j" is pronounced like the English "h"． Isn't it funny to find these interesting ways to "laugh" ？

If you wear glasses， there's good news for you．（1）　　A new study has found that needing to wear glasses is connected with higher levels of intelligence．

    In the study， researchers from the University of Edinburgh studied data（数据）on brainpower and genes． Genes， made up of DNA， are information in the cells of our body． They determine how we look and how our bodies work． （2）　　They found a connection between brainpower and physical characteristics including eyesight and health． People who were more intelligent were more likely to have genes that might show they need to wear glasses． The researchers also found that being smarter has some advantages． They found ways in which smarter people have fewer health problems．

    （3）　　They are not proved（证实的）causes． It is easy to prove that two things are connected． It is harder to prove that one thing， like intelligence， causes the other， like needing glasses．

    Forget genes though． Wearing glasses makes people think you are more intelligent， even if you don't need them． A number of studies have found that people who wear glasses are usually seen as smarter， more hard﹣working and honest． （4）　　They get the people they work for on trial（审 判）to wear glasses． Glasses are also used to show someone is intelligent in movies and on TV．

    （5）　　People who do not need glasses sometimes wear them． They wear them just to look smart or cool． Glasses are not only for needs． Wearing glasses can also be cool． Many movie stars are fans of fashion glasses．
