　　Ⅴ.閱讀理解

　　Many kids are too busy to have time to play creatively or relax after school.Kids who complain about the number of activities they’re involved in or refuse to go to them may be a sign that they’re burdened with stress.

　　How can you help kids deal with stress? Proper rest and good nutrition can improve such skills，as can good parenting.Make time for your kids each day.Whether they need to talk or just be in the same room with you，make yourself available.

　　Even as kids get older，quality time is important.It’s really hard for some people to come home after work，get down on the floor，and play with their kids or just talk to them about their day－ especially if they’ve had a stressful day themselves.But expressing interest in your kids’ days shows that they’re important to you.

　　Help your child deal with stress by talking about what may be causing it.Together，you can come up with a few solutions like cutting_back_on afterschool activities，spending more time talking with parents or teachers，developing an exercise habit，or keeping a journal.

　　You can also help by anticipating(期待) potentially stressful situations and preparing kids for them.For example，let a child know ahead of time (but not too far ahead of time) that a doctor’s appointment is coming up and talk about what will happen there.Keep in mind，though，that younger kids probably won’t need too much advance preparation.Too much information can cause more stress—reassurance(放心) is the key.

　　Remember that some level of stress is normal; let kids know that it’s OK to feel angry，scared，lonely，or anxious and that other people share those feelings.

　　B．A child is unwilling to go to school activities.

　　C．A child is unable to play happily after school.

　　D．A child can have a good sleep every day.

　　解析：選D。細節理解題。依據第一段第二句信息推斷孩子厭學、抱怨活動多、睡眠不好以及玩得不開心都是孩子有壓力的征兆。

　　3．You can do the following to help reduce children’s stress EXCEPT ________.

　　A．making yourself available

　　B．showing interest in kids’ days

　　C．reminding them some stress is OK

　　D．trying to offer more information

　　解析：選D。細節理解題。依據第五段Too much information can cause more stress推斷也不能盲目給孩子太多信息，無形中增加壓力。

　　4．The underlined “cutting back on” in the fourth paragraph probably means ________.
