These drivers just drove slowly, taking their own sweet time, as if they had nothing to do and no place in particular to

38、go. Thus, the expression, “Sunday driver”, was born. Consequently, a Sunday driver wasnt necessarily someone who was driving on a Sunday. A person could be a Sunday driver any day of the week. The expression simply meant that the person was an obstacle to other drivers who were in a hurry. The expre

39、ssion probably came about because there was a time when people would often decide to go for a relaxing drive on Sunday afternoons. A Sunday drive was a common occurrence years ago and especially on a nice warm sunny day. There were no stores open on Sunday because of the “blue laws”, so you needed t

40、o be sure and fill up the gas tank and make any other needed purchases before Sunday arrived. Some of the states had strict blue laws that even prohibited some activities on Sunday. However, there is still a lot to be said for the slow, gentle life that once existed. It was a time when very few peop

41、le worked on Sunday except for those professions vital to our well-being such as those in the medical profession. It was a day “set apart” that was used to rest, visit with neighbors and friends, or maybe go to grandmas house for supper. Today there are many who return to work and children who go ba

42、ck to school overly tired on Monday due to a lack of rest. Perhaps there would be less stress related illnesses if we really kept Sunday as a day of rest. 39.

45、 keep pace with society D. improve academic performance DMattie Stepanek died at the age of 13 from a rare disease called muscular dystrophy. Because of the disease, Mattie had to get around in a wheelchair, but it did not stop him from staying positive and inspiring others with his message of peace

46、. As a best-selling author and role model, Mattie provided a voice for people who suffer from muscular dystrophy. He spoke to people about the disease and about his dream for world peace. “Mattie was something special, something very special,” said Jerry Lewis, the chair of the Muscular Dystrophy As

47、sociation, a group that works to find a solution to the disease. “He was an example that made people want to reach for the best within themselves.” Mattie moved many people through his speeches and interviews, but he may have touched the most people through his poetry. During his life, Mattie wrote

48、five books of poetry. Three of those books were The New York Times best-sellers. His books all had the word “Heartsongs” in the title. Mattie called his inner voice that encouraged him to work for peace his “Heartsongs”. When his first book came out, just 200 copies were printed to be handed out to

49、friends and supporters. But after the news of the book spread, 500,000 more copies were printed. People think Matties poems are very thoughtful. Mattie first started writing poetry at the age of 3 to help him face the death of his brother, who also suffered from muscular dystrophy. The magazine Time

50、 For Kids once interviewed Mattie. He told the reporter, “Life is a gift. We have to make the best of it.” Mattie said his task was to bring peace to the world. 43.

Mattie Stepanek, a well-respected poet C. A life, brief in length but with depth D. Life is a gift ESlow parenting means parenting chil

53、dren in the contact of nature without any interference of materialistic influence. We can also term it as “self-raising”. In slow parenting children are allowed to do what they think proper and parents just keep a watch over the child. Curiosity of the child leads to exploring and discovering things

54、. Parents provide little help only when its too necessary, otherwise keep themselves away from the child and just have a look on him/her. This brings about a feeling of self-dependency and they are encouraged to solve their problems. This is a natural way of learning. When a child is left to learn i

55、n a natural environment, the childs natural development takes place. Influence of any materialistic way doesnt let the mind develop naturally. Watching TV, playing video games or joining classes of dance, swimming or any other sports will not let the mind develop naturally. Here creativity of their

56、mind is developed. They explore ideas. The logic behind this is that the kids of animals learn by nature, so can our kids. So let our children play in the garden, to watch flowers, plants, birds, butterflies and other gifts of nature. In the classes of dance, swimming etc. their creativity is influe

57、nced and their natural creativity is suppressed(压制). In these classes they are overburdened and cant enhance their creativity. So let them play in the open air or garden without any burden instead of joining classes. Generally parents give toys to their children and explain how to operate them. But

58、those parents who believe in slow parenting give toys and observe how the children are managing them. Their skill to learn and understand comes out. Maybe the process is slow, but it will be their exploration, which will make them self-dependent, and self-capable to learn. 47. In slow parenting, par

59、ents _. A. give the whole directions to what their children doB. keep a close watch over their children C. give their children freedom to do what they think proper D. set limits to what their children do 48. What is the main advantage of slow parenting according to the passage? A. Keeping children a

60、way from materialistic influence. B. Arousing childrens curiosity. C. Making children interested in exploring nature. D. Helping children to be independent. 49. We can infer from the third paragraph that_. A. exploring nature is a good way of slow parenting B. children cant learn by nature like the
