23、If your preschoolers turn up their noses at carrots or celery, a small reward like a sticker(贴画) for taking even a taste may help get them to eat previously disliked foods, a UK study said.
Though it might seem obvious that a reward could encourage young children to eat their vegetables, the idea is actually controversial, researchers wrote in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. That’s because some studies have shown that rewards can backfire and cause children to lose interest in foods they already liked, said Jane Wardle, a researcher at University College London who worked on the study. Verbal praise, such as “Brilliant! You’re a great vegetable taster”, did not work as well.
The study found that when parents gave their small children a sticker each time they took a “tiny taste” of a disliked vegetable, it gradually changed their attitudes. The children were also willing to eat more of the vegetables—either carrots, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cabbage or sugar snap peas—in laboratory taste tests, the study said.
Researchers randomly assigned (分派) 173 families to one of these groups. In one, parents used stickers to reward their children each time they took a tiny sample of a disliked vegetable. A second group of parents used verbal praise. The third group, where Parents used no special vegetable-promoting methods, served as a “control”.
Parents in the reward groups offered their children a taste of the “target” vegetable every day for 12 days. Soon after, children in the sticker group were giving higher ratings to the vegetables—and were willing to eat more in the research lab, going from an average of 5 grams at the start to about 10 grams after the 12-day experience. The turnaround(转机) also seemed to last, with preschoolers in the sticker group still willing to eat more of the once-disliked vegetable three months later.
Why didn’t the verbal praise work? Wardle said the parents’ words may have seemed “insincere” to their children.
【1】What is the purpose of writing the passage?
A. To show the procedure of an experiment on children’s diet
B. To introduce a practical method of making children eat vegetables
C. To explain why children hate to eat vegetables
D. To present a proper way of verbal praise to parents
【2】What does the underlined word “backfire” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Shoot from behind the back
B. Make a fire in the backyard
C. Produce an unexpected result
D. Achieve what was planned
【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Most children are born to dislike carrots or celery.
B. Children in the sticker group will never lose interest in eating vegetables.
C. Oral praise works quite well in encouraging children to eat vegetables.
D. It remains a question whether rewarding is a good way to get children to eat vegetables.
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Children like rewards, not verbal praise.
B. Parents should give up verbal praise.
C. Children are difficult to inspire.
D. Parents should praise their children in a sincere tone.
24、For people who are planning a trip, a visit to a museum might not be the first thing they think of. After all, there are plenty of ways to appreciate the world’s civilization, gain exciting experiences and spend quality time with family and friends. 【1】
Museums are where people learn something new, at every age! Are you interested in something specific? 【2】. There, you will find yourself drawn in and inspired! Museums are a fantastic place to learn about a region’s history, scientific achievements, major cultural events, and of course, dinosaurs. They also design exhibitions related to visual arts, industrial innovations and anything that inspires an individual to learn about the past and create new paths to the future.
【3】 They will surely be an exciting part of the educational experience with the main purpose to expose children to knowledge of various fields and expand their horizons. To achieve that, museums are working to create meaningful and engaging activities, interactive and knowledge-based.
Museums support tourism. They are tourism promoters in small towns and large cities. Museums aren’t a burden on tax revenue (税收) or a separate concern from other city projects. 【4】Statistics show that museums support more than 726, 000 jobs in America.
Museums shape communities. They have activities and exhibitions through which visitors can learn about local history. Museums are places where a shared heritage is celebrated and a collective identity is formed. They provide an interesting public space where people meet and talk to each other. 【5】
A．Museums bring out the best qualities in children.
B．Museums often deliver kids-centered exhibitions.
C．Instead, they generate funding and fuel employment.
D．Then, visit a local museum to learn about that subject.
E．Even shopping at the gift shop there is an opportunity for connection.
