You want your children to do well in school. You want them to have nice friends and interesting hobbies and to not go out with strangers. You may even want them to be happy. But in this computer game, you can always start over with a new digital child if things don't work out as planned.

A new game in China puts players in control of those most fearsome of characters: Mom and Dad. The mission? Raise a son or daughter from kindergarten to college.

In a nation of famously demanding, scolding and, yes, sometimes loving mothers and fathers, the game, Chinese Parents, is a hit. Since its release in September, it has found a huge audience on Steam, an online marketplace run by the American game maker Valve Corporation. There are no official figures for how many people have downloaded the game but it has caused heated discussion online while earning tens of thousands of reviews.

Yang Gee Yelling, a founder of Moy wan Games, the independent studio that developed Chinese Parents, said he hoped to produce an English version this year. The success of the game, which costs $9. 99 to play, does not appear to be driven by people hoping to exact revenge for their own upbringings. Quite the opposite:　 Some fans have written that, by letting them experience childhood from their parents' perspective, it had moved them to tears.

"I used to not understand many things my mom made me do when I was little, "said Kang Shang hero, 19, a professional blogger in the northeastern city of Qinhuangdao. "But when I play the game and try to increase figures for my son so he can unlock more achievements and marry the prettiest girl in school, start to understand my parents more.

All the joys and trials of raising children are here. Players choose between pushing their digital generation to attain conventional success and allowing them some appearance of childhood innocence. They must give career guidance and tolerate (just barely) their teenager's first dates. Everything leads up to the gaokao, the highly competitive college entrance exam that decides the fortunes of so many young Chinese people.

1.What's the function of the first paragraph?

A.To attract readers to the topic. B.To present the parents' expectations.

2.How do we know this computer game Chinese Parents is popular?

A.It is produced as expected.

B.It has aroused heated discussions and received many comments online.

C.Many parents have been engaged in playing this computer game.

D.It is hoped that an English version of this computer game will come out this year.

3.What's the author's attitude towards this computer game?

A.Pessimistic. B.Cautious.

C.Supportive. D.Disgusted.

4.What's the author's purpose in writing the text?

A.To introduce the computer game Chinese Parents.

B.To encourage children to play this computer game Chinese Parents.

C.To persuade parents to be strict with their children.

D.To let parents understand their children better.

You want to know about my staying in America, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience study here.

In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.

When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.” when people say “How are you?” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good.” or “I’m tired.”

One day, someone greeted me with “What’s up?” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.

Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.

To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan. However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.” I also surprised by how hard-working US students are. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.

The kids here are so talented, I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.

1. What does the word “tan” in the sixth paragraph mean in Chinese?

A. 晒黑        B. 晒白           C. 能量      D. 保护

2. A good US student spends his/her time ________.

A. only in doing homework

B. only on sports

C. only on music

D. on studies, sports or music and public work

3. Which of the following is NOT true?

A. The writer is now in US.

B. American girls love to have white skin.

C. American girls love to have brown skin.

D.US students are talented and hard-working.

4. Which is the best title for the passage?

A. My Own Travel in the US

B. My Studying in the US

C. My Opinion about the US

D. My Studying in China

You may not like it, but learning English is absolutely necessary if you want to succeed abroad. Not just that, you have to show your knowledge of the English language on one of the two major English proficiency(精通) tests: the IELTS or the TOEFL.

Which test you should take depends on your goal. The TOEFL remains the top exam in the U.S. But the IELTS is gaining ground in the U.S. and it has already been the preferred test in the U.K. and Australia. There are also differences in the test themselves. They both measure the four main language requirements: speaking, reading, writing and listening. However, the tests are very different in their forms and methodology. “Compared with the TOEFL, the IELTS test requires you to actually have a grasp of the language and ability to use it, rather than simply being well prepared for the test,” explained IELTS examiner Julian Fisher.

The key reasons for this are that the IELTS test requires fill-in answers besides multiple choice(选择题), and its speaking section is done with a real examiner instead of a computer. “The face-to-face interview with a trained speaker of English allows for real-life communication, which shows real academic(学业的) and workplace situations, ” said senior exam marketing officer Pang Shuai.

What scores do I need? For the IELTS, a band score of 5 to 7 is fine for the majority of undergraduate and post-graduate programs. For top schools, you will probably need at least a 7. When it comes to the TOEFL , there is a range. It all depends on the colleges. Ordinary schools will let you get by with a score as low as 60. For a top-tier university, on the other hand, you will need to score upward of 100 points on your TOEFL.

1.What does Paragraph 2 suggest?

A.The TOEFL score is preferred in Australian universities.

B.Universities in the U.K. mainly see students’ IELTS scores.

C.The IELTS is more widely accepted than the TOEFL by US. School.

D.In the U.S., the TOEFL score is not as important as it once was.

2.Which of the following is a difference between the TOEFL and the IELTS?

A.There are no fill-in answers in the TOEFL tests.

B.The IELTS tests focus more on test-taking skills.

C.The IELTS interviews test-takers on the computer.

D.The TOEFL checks four English skills, while the IELTS doesn’t.

3.What does Pang Shuai think of the face-to-face interview?

A.More exams should take this exam form.

B.It is helpful in one’s studies and at work.

C.This exam form can make test-takers more relaxed.

D.A test-taker can score high simply by preparing well.

4.Which of the following is correct if you want to go to a top university in the U.K. or U.S.?

A.A 7 on the IELTS is probably a must.

B.A score of 60 on the TOEFL is enough.

C.You should take both the TOEFL and the IELTS.

D.You need a 7.5 on the IELTS for post-graduate programs.
