4．As we all know，games play a very important role in the growth of children．Children should grow along with playing games； for，（61）through playing games，they can not only acquire knowledge，but also develop their abilities to get along with others．
However，most children are （62）faced （face） with a completely different situation．Most parents fear that games will prevent children from increasing new knowledge and （63）that the children will fail in the future examinations．So，instead of （64）letting （let） the children themselves find and learn naturally from their surroundings，they force their children to take part in（65）various （variety） kinds of classes，learning English，playing（66）the piano or practicing drawing，etc．What's more，some parents put away the children's toys which are very useful in developing children's （67）imagination （imagine） and practical abilities．
Here is a piece of good advice to those parents：（68）if/when you want to expect your child to be able to accomplish something，you must first of all develop his ability to adapt （69）to the new surroundings．That cram （填鴨式的） education can lead to nothing （70）but a failure in the children's growth．

9．If you saw another kid ride her bike too fast around a corner and fall down，you might ride your bike more slowly on that turn．Yes，we humans are very sensitive to others'mistakes．And the same is true for other animals．Animals mess up all the time．They might eat poisonous leaves，fall off a tree or let their prey（獵物） slip away．By watching others fail，an animal can avoid making the same mistakes，thus improving its chance of survival．
Scientists suspected that one part of the brain helps animals process information about others'errors．Cells in that part appear to become more active when a person sees someone else making a mistake．But researchers didn't know whether individual cells in this part of the brain play different roles in detecting errors．
To investigate the brain's response to errors in more detail，the researchers taught a game to two macaques，a type of monkey．One monkey could press a yellow or green button while the other watched．If the first monkey pressed the right button，the team gave both animals a treat．Every couple of rounds，the two monkeys switched roles．Meanwhile，the scientists monitored individual cells in the animal's brains．
When the first monkey messed up the game by pressing the wrong button，a group of cells in the second monkey's brain fired．But if the second monkey also made the wrong choice during its turn，some of the cells in that group didn't respond．Those unresponsive cells reacted specifically to mistakes made by others，not to the monkey's own mistakes．
Scientists believe other parts of the brain also might help people process information about another's errors．"You start to think about this other person and see things from his angle．"Ellen de Bruijn told Science News．She studies the brain at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands．

31．According to Paragraph l，animals'ability to learn from others'mistakes．B
A．used to be ignored by humans        
B．helps them to survive better
C．is being lost because of humans        
D．ensures that they will never fail
32．The underlined word"detecting"in Paragraph 2probably means"D"．
A．correcting      
B．making      
C．drawing     
D．sensing
33．From the game the scientists taught to two macaques，we can see．C
A．a(chǎn)nimals can avoid the same mistakes    
B．which part of the brain is more active
C．how the brain responds to mistakes    
D．how the brain processes information
34．In the experiment mentioned，those unresponsive cells are only sensitive toA．
A．others'mistakes            
B．the same buttons
C．one's own mistakes                
D．the monkey's brain
35．What's the main idea of the passage？A
A．Animals can learn from mistakes like human beings．
B．An interesting experiment by scientists surprised us．
C．Monkeys can avoid making mistakes by learning from us．
D．The brain cells are always sensitive to others'information．

19．The smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China．Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments．（56）Atfirst glance visitors would think they were in Europe．
Despite the fact （57）thatmost Chinese are not Christians，Christmas season has become increasingly popular．
"If you （58）had walked（walk） around major Chinese cities 15years ago，you wouldn't have seen many signs of Christmas．However，if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today，you′d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere，"says Cai Jiming，（59）a professor of Tsinghua University，who has served   （60）asan expert in developing China′s holiday schedule．
（ 61）Although/Though Christmas is not a public holiday，many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit．
