If parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius (天才), they will cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational psychologists (心理学家), this is one of the biggest mistakes which some parents make. Generally, the child will understand very well what the parent expects. But unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.
However, if parents are not unrealistic- about what they expect their children to do, but are hope ful in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well -- especially if the parents are very supportive of their child.

After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them, thinking," Everyone else is doing it."
When I got home that night, I told my father what I wanted to do. "You give an honest day's work," he said, looking at me straight in my eyes. "They are paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that."
I followed my father's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
Of all my jobs I've had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that struck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with the people who steals. If one of my players was caught stealing, he’d be gone.
Whether you are on a sports team. in an office or a member of a family, if you can't trust one another, there's going to be trouble.

If we observe carefully, we can find that most of the flowers in nature are red, orange and yellow. If we have seen a black flower, it is a chance in a million. People have made census (普查) to colors of more than four thousand kinds of flowers and discovered that only eight of them are black. Why？
As we know, sunlight is formed by seven different kinds of colored light. The wave length of each light changes, so the quantity of heat in each light changes, too. Flowers, especially their petals (花瓣) , are very weak and easy to the harm caused by high temperature. Black flowers can take in all the light waves, which cause the flowers to dry up in a high temperature. So the black flowers can hardly continue their lives. But red flowers, orange flowers and yellow ones can protect themselves from sunlight by reflecting (反射) the red light, orange light and yellow light, each of which has a large quantity of heat.
That is why red, orange and yellow flowers are very common in nature while black flowers are so unusual.
We can hardly find black flowers because ______.
听力原文： Mr. Smith was a wealthy industrialist, but he was not satisfied with life. He did not sleep well and his food did not agree with him. This situation lasted for some time. Finally, after several sleepless nights, he decided to go to see his doctor. The doctor advised him to go abroad to change condition. But Mr. Smith was afraid that he was not good at foreign language. The doctor told him that he could talk a little less and gave him four pieces of advice: go on a voyage, take plenty of exercise, try to re- duce his weight and avoid rich food.
Mr. Smith went to French. But he did not know French, and had to communicate through body movements. He joined in a physical training course. The teacher made him shake his knees, his arms, his neck and his head rapidly. He had to lie on the ground and raise his right and left legs. After a time his body grew hard and firm. He forgot his company and the importance of raising the level of production. He even began to notice the green trees and the lovely birds.
Finally he returned home. But unfortunately his improvement was only temporary. Soon he was a normal business man again, worried about his company, his savings, his advancement in a technological society,and things in general.
Why did Mr. Smith go to see his doctor？
