Dear readers,
I receive many letters from children and can’t answer them all — there wouldn’t be enough time in a day. I’ll try to answer some of the questions that are commonly asked.
Where did I get the idea for Stuart Little and for Charlotte's Web? Well, many years ago, I went to bed one night in a railway sleeping car, and during the night I dreamed about a tiny boy who acted rather like a mouse. That’s how the story of Stuart Littlegot started.
As for Charlotte’s Web, I like animals and my farm is a very pleasant place to be — at all hours. One day, when I was on my way to feed the pig, I began feeling sorry for the pig because, like most pigs, he was going to die. This made me sad. So I started thinking of ways to save a pig’s life. Three years after I started writing it, it was published. (I am not a fast worker, as you can see.)
Sometimes I’m asked when I started to write, and what made me want to write. I started early — as soon as I could spell. Children often find pleasure and satisfaction through trying to set their thoughts down on paper, either in words or in pictures. I was not good at drawing, so I used words instead. As I grew older, I found that writing can be a way of earning a living.
Well, here is the answer to the last question. No, they are imaginary tales, containing fantastic characters and events. In real life, a family doesn’t have a child who looks like a mouse and a spider doesn’t write words in her web. Although my stories are imaginary, I like to think that there is some truth in them, too — truth about the way people and animals feel and think and act.
Yours sincerely,
E.B. White

What is probably the last question?

    A clever cat has been called a hero after he prevented his owners’ home from burning down. Five-year-old Pepper has learned to open windows and lets himself out every night by using his paws to turn the latch. So when a fire broke out while his owners were at Christmas shopping, the quick-thinking cat leapt into action and opened the window to allow the poisonous smoke to escape.
Owner Sharon White said, “He can climb back in through the window, so he really does come and go as he pleases. Pepper is still a bit afraid but is still managing to eat plenty of food.” Sharon and her husband Phil were handed Pepper over four years ago after a neighbor could no longer look after it.
The fire started at 4 pm on Saturday after the couple went to the shops and left their microwave on a ten minute timer, which then caught fire. Sharon said, “We put something in the microwave for ten minutes and then went out to do our Christmas shopping in the local town. I discovered on the way that I had left my purse at home but decided not to turn around. It was my relative who lives next door that rang us and told us that we’d better get home as there was quite a lot of smoke coming out of our house and the firefighters were here.”
Firefighters rushed to their £350,000 house and put out the fire before it could spread and the kitchen suffered only smoke damage. Phil added, “Pepper managed to get out and smoke must have been pouring out the window which attracted the attention of the neighbors. He’s got a real mind of his own. Without him, the fire could have been so much worse.”
What is this passage mainly about?

How did Pepper help avoid the danger of the fire?

From Paragraph 2 we know that Pepper ____.

What can we learn from what Sharon said in Paragraph 3?

We can infer that Sharon and her husband Phil ____.

    If you’re ever apart from your children, just talking on the phone will help just as much as a hug.
If you’re a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel guilty for spending so much time away from your kids. But the results of a new study show that a mother’s voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contact.
In an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison asked a group of girls between the ages of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges — a stressful situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to give their answers, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙): cortisol, which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the “love” hormone.
After they were finished, some of the girls got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didn’t see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well they’d done. The final group had no contact with their mothers, but instead watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins.
Finally, the girls’ hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to ease the children’s anxiety — but, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same influence on reducing the girls’ stress levels.
So, no matter how old you are, if you’re feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.
How does the writer make his point?

The new study finds that ____.

What is the CORRECT time order of the events in the study?
a. The girls solved their math problems.
b. The girls’ levels of hormones were measured again.
c. The girls were divided into three groups.
d. The girls’ levels of hormones were measured.

The final group was arranged to _____.

What does the underlined word in the second last paragraph probably mean?

根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
________
Often a controlling parent is a perfectionist, driving you always to be the best you can and getting angry or upset over grades that are less perfect, no matter how hard you work for them, or finding faults with
tasks you take on around the home. There is nothing wrong with doing a job right, but it seems like no matter how hard you work on it, it's never perfect. In other words, do you ever just receive praise fromthat parent, or is it always justified with a "but..." or "except...".
________
It can only be controlled if you allow it to be. Controlling behaviours are eventually the controller's attempt to meet his or her own needs. If the controlling parent demands good grades, don't do poorly.
You are the strong one when you find ways to meet his or her needs and yours, without allowing them to get into your mind. They can force you to pretend to be something you are not, but they can't changewho you actually are.
________
Most controlling parents are simply afraid that you will fail without their intervention. Because they feel it necessary to involve themselves in your life. If you can discover what seems to calm your parents, you will make your own life much easier. For example, if a note from your teacher telling them you haven't turnedin your homework will put you into trouble, do turn in the homework. It's pretty simple but really-do what your parents want you to do, and they will be less intrusive in your life.
________
Some parents control their family with anger. They really lose their temper, lose all self-control, and theresult is no discussion. People are afraid to voice an opinion contrary to the angry parents because they
fear what will happen. This is how anger is used to control you. If you can talk to the parents, ask for the 3-minute-rule approach. Using this approach allows everyone to be heard and also provides some"cooling off" time, which can help manage conflicts.
________
If you are very smart, you will study hard in school and give yourself lots of opinions for change. Evenif you go to school locally, it's suggested that you try to live in the dormitories, or any place other than
your parents' home. Get a job and help with your own living expenses. The sooner you get out form under the shadow of a controlling parent, the sooner the parent will recognize you "Declaration of Independence".

E. Learn how to avoid being controlled by anger.
F. Ask yourself if your parent is a perfectionist.
