stealing the cookie﹣﹣the evidence of candy written on his or her face.However，you get a wide﹣eyed denial："I didn't do it!"Learning to tell the truth，even at the risk of punishment，is an important part of moral （道德），and new research suggests it can take seven or more years for kids to get there.Early 2017 Professor Craig E.Smith published a study.He and his workmates chose 48 children between four and nine years of age.They told the kids a story about a boy or girl doing something wrong，such as taking a classmate's toy or candy，and then either lying about the wrongdoing to a parent or confessing （承认），they asked the children，How would the child feel？How would the mother feel？The children's answers were generally divided according to age，which is in agreement with the stolen candy，lying and getting unpunished.They imagined the parent in the study would be angry with the child who confessed.However（可能的）to think the child would feelbetter confessing the crime and that the parent would have positive （积极的）feelings towards a confessor.Smith says ，"Kids of all ages who expect that a parent would feel happy about a child's confession are more likely to tell the truth rather than lie.Reward the honesty even if you feel you must punish the wrong action." He adds，what parents can learn from these studies is to listen calmly without getting angry right away when their child confesses.（1）What does the underlined word "denial" in Paragraph 1 mean？A.委屈.B.责备.C.否认.D.拒绝.（2）Paragraph 2 mainly tell us .A.kids can't tell "right' from "wrong"B.it takes time for kids to learn to tell the truthC.it's wrong to punish kids for telling the truthD.all the kids are willing to confess to a bad act（3）What did Smith and his workmates find in their study？A.Older kids are more likely than younger children to confess to a bad act.B.Younger children are more likely than older kids to confess to a bad actC.The four﹣to﹣five﹣year﹣olds would feel better confessing the crime.D.The seven﹣to﹣nine﹣year﹣olds thought parents would be angry with their confessions.（4）According to Professor Smith，what can parents learn from these studies？A.Parents should at once punish the children who lied.B.Parents should tell children the wrongness of lying.C.Parents should never get angry after their children's confessions.D.Parents should show positive feeling about their children's confessions.19．（8分）Riding a bicycle has become very popular these days.My school is far from my house.so I went there by bus for years.I sometimes got there late.This March I asked my father to get me a bicycle so that 1 might get to school on time.And he bought me one some days laterThen the problem was how to ride the bicycle.One of my friends lives next door He helped me learn how to ride.He took me to a school playground and demonstrated how to ride to me.When it was my turn to ride，he ran with me.He did that to make sure he would be there when I was falling off.I learned things very quickly and could ride a bicycle without anyone's help after a few days.What fun it is to ride a bicycle!I now go to school on my bicycle.I think a bicycle is the cheapest and quickest means of transport （交通工具）for a student.I make use of my bicycle if a football game is waiting for me in the park.I visit the homes of my friends by bicycle.And they live too far away.I can also be very helpful to my mother and get vegetables and fruit for the house.What fun it is to fly like a bird on my bicycle!（1）The writer wanted a bicycle to first.A.visit the homes of his friendsB.help his mother to get vegetables and fruitC.watch a football game in the parkD.get to school on time（2）What does the underlined word "demonstrated" mean in Chinese？A.证明.B.观察.C.示范.D.建议.（3）Which of the following is true？A.The writer rides to school because he lives near the school.B.The writer thinks it great fun to ride a bicycle.C.The writer learned to ride in a park.D.The writer could not ride with his friend's help after a few days.（4）What does the writer think of riding a bicycle？①It's cheap. ②It's hard. ③It's quick. ④It's fun.A.①③④B. ①②④C.①②③D.②③④20．（8分）Ken and Anthony were childhood friends.They went to primary and high school together.They went to college（大学）in different states，and then they lost touch.That was twenty years ago.One morning Ken was reading the newspaper with his morning coffee.Inside he saw a notice for a poetry reading at a nearby bookstore.He was surprised to find that the poet was none other than his friend Anthony.Ken decided to see what his friend was up to.Ken sat in the last row of the area set up inside the bookstore.When Anthony was introduced and came up the podium.Ken hardly recognized him.Anthony was almostcompletely bald and had a little potbelly（大肚子）.When Anthony was in high school，he was very handsome.
