When my father was a boy, he had a dog named Laddie. Laddie stayed constantly by Dad’s side—fishing, playing ball, and even     1     (follow) him to school. Laddie would simply follow Dad’s smell and track him all the way to school. Arriving after all the doors were closed, Laddie would sit outside the school, waiting     2     (patient). Eventually, someone would open     3     door and Laddie would slip in after him. Once inside, the dog would walk from room to room     4     he found his master. Of course, Dad’s teacher would immediately demand that the dog     5     (remove).

Later, my father went off     6     (join) his five brothers in World War Ⅱ, but Laddie continued to attend school, lying quietly each day     7     the feet of Dad’s younger brother, Dick. Laddie’s attendance was     8     consistent that Howard Junior High School awarded him an honorary diploma when Dick graduated. Now, that’s one smart dog.

Years later, when my dad was an adult, he met another dog: Casey. Casey went everywhere with Dad. In fact, I complained Dad spent     9     time with Casey than he did with any of his human family members. Casey trusted my father unconditionally,     10     sometimes Casey’s blind faith in my dad got them both into trouble.

Ask someone what he has done to help the environment, and he will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling around the home is, of course, very important. However,     1    (force) to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better     2     we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.

The total amount of packaging increased     3     12 percent between 1999 and 2005. A large number of companies believe that they can attract customers’ attention and stimulate their purchasing desire by over-packaging their goods, thus     4    (gain) more profits.

Too much packaging is doing damage to the environment. If such packaging     5    (burn), it will give off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps,     6     the process itself uses energy. The solution is to stop producing such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. Fortunately, a few of them are coming round to the idea     7     this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.

Yet this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that     8     without packaging is of poor quality. This is especially true of food, but it applies to a wide range of consumer products,     9     often have far more packaging than necessary.

There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. However, despite the ongoing campaigns     10    (promote) consumers’ green awareness, we still have a long way to go.

The TERM “killjoy parents” has been trending on Chinese social media platforms as many young pcople complain that their parents would rather criticize than praise them for their accomplishments. One poster, for example, remarked that his parents said his high score in math wasn't good enough     1     several other students had scored higher.     2     complained that, after     3     (accept) into a “second-tier” university, the response he got for his father was “Congratulations. You got admitted to a garbage university.”

It’s a terrible feeling to have someone “burst your bubble” when you think they should be sharing your joy. And your parents, after all, are probably the people with     4     you most want to share the best moments in your life. But why do some parents seem to be so hard     5     (please)?

I think a lot of it has to do with Chinese society. Parents know that life     6     be full of hardship and dificulties, and they want their children to be “hardened” to these realities. Another reason can probably be found deep in Chinese culture.

When I asked a Chinese friend why Chinese parents don’t praise their children, he said it’s because they don't want to bring their children bad luck. He told me the story of two women sitting in a park and watching their children play. One of the mothers said to the other, “Your boy is so handsome and healthy.” That other mother replied, “No, he’s very ugly and he’s a very sickly child.” The mother, my friend explained, didn't want her son praised in case the “gods” heard and punished him. It's an old superstition (迷信), but it does have some basis in fact.

American parents, at the other extreme, are taught to ever criticize their children because it may hurt their feelings—their self-esteem. Instead, they     7     (tell) to always praise their children, even for failure. Psychologists now believe this is a bad idea. According to one study, too much praise can result in negative effects.     8     kids with low self-esteem felt even worse about themselves, kids with high self-esteem became narcissistic or self-centered. Moreover, children who got too much praise were     9     (likely) to take risks, were unable to deal with failure and tended to give up when faced with challenges.

Stacey and Toby aren’t the only people to be welcoming Mariella’s app. It’s now got thousands of users, and she’s working long days to balance it with her A-level studies. The time difference from New York to her school in Rugby, Warwickshire, means she sets her alarm for 5am.

    10     (have) “killjoy parents” may not be enjoyable, but it’s important to recognize that their seemingly critical nature doesn't negate the love they have for you. In their hearts, they genuinely share in your joy.
