吉林省长春市第七十二中学2020届九年级上学期英语开学考试试卷

根据短文内容,选出最佳答案。

    Do you think the people who use smart phones all the time are relaxed? A research shows that too much smart phone use in spare time can make people more stressed out.

    So what can we do in order to really take advantage of our spare time? We have collected the following activities that also take a few hours to complete, but you'll improve your health in the process (过程).

    Whether you're at home or on holiday, it's important to disconnect from the Wi-Fi. Walking in nature can do good to your health. As a professional(职业的)traveler, Samantha Brown put it in a recent passage, "I put my map in my back pocket, put down my phones and take a good, long walk. Just walk around."

    Go to bed earlier. What can help improve your mood? Extra sleep, naturally. Getting the right amount of sleep is very important to our health and studies show that we don't get enough of it.

    Read a book. And let yourself get lost in a good story. Research shows that reading can reduce(减轻) stress, keep your brain sharp and can even help you sleep better. Everyone should spend at least 30 minutes reading every day.

How do people from all over the world spend their free time? Let's have a look. 

⊙Internet

People from Canada spend about 43. 5 hours online every week, 8 hours longer than Americans. Canada has long cold winters, so people spend lots of time at home. 

⊙Outdoors

People from New Zealand spend most of their free time outdoors. The countryside there is great for mountain climbing and water sports. 

⊙Bars

Spain has a lot of bars(酒馆). In Spain, a bar is for families, not just drinkers. It's a meeting place and often an eating place. When none of your family or friends are free, you can still go to a bar by yourself. People around you in the bar may ask you to join them. 

⊙Museums

The UK has six of the top 20 most visited museums in the world, such as the National Gallery, the British Museum and Tate Modern. 

⊙Parties

As for parties, most people will think of Brazil. Its carnival(狂欢节) is famous all around the world. Bangkok and Berlin are two of the best cities for partying. In Bangkok, you can meet friendly people and visit great night clubs. In Berlin, you can enjoy beautiful music on the streets. 

⊙Exercising

In Greece and Estonia, over 80 percent of people exercise every day. The Olympic sports are very popular in these two countries, but Estonia has a very special game: ice cricket(冰上板球)!

I always told my children that they were smart all the time. Especially in the first years of their life, they learned skills and language so quickly. I had a particularly clear memory of watching my son work out how to play a Lego toy and I told him, "You' re a such architectural(建筑的) genius. Mom is proud of you."

 But some research suggests that we should not tell our children they' re"smart" when they do important things. When I first heard about it, I disagreed. But after doing some research, I gradually agreed. It all goes back to"growth mindset", which means that you can change your abilities through hard work and strategies(策略) . Compared to a"growth mindset", a"fixed mindset" is the idea that your abilities are inborn and can't be changed. When we praise our children for being"smart" based on success, like solving a problem or doing well on a test. we' re encouraging them to believe that if they do poorly or make mistakes, they' re not smart.

 And it's not just what we say about our children's success that matters — it's how we tolerate(容忍) their failures. A study led by a scientist named Kyle shows if parents think that failure is shameful, their children are more likely to be derailed by mistakes. For example, Dr. Kyle explains, your children may have difficulty in solving math problems and you may say something like"Not everyone needs to be good at numbers" as a way to comfort them. But what you' re really doing is suggesting that their math abilities are already set, and can't be changed.

 Whatever you say to your kids, it's about getting them comfortable with failures. Here are some tips from Dr. Kyle. One way is to praise kids' hard work instead of their intelligence. As Dr. Kyle pointed out, if we praise a kid for a school project he finished in five minutes, he would know our praise is empty. Instead, we can ask him questions about how he did it, which can help us know how to praise future hard work. Also, we can talk about our mistakes. We don't have to hide our negative(消极的) feelings. If we point out our missteps and explain how we insisted, our children can learn to do the same.
