I was about six years old when I learned how to ride a bike. All of my friends had already learned how to, and I felt left out.
One day, I told my dad that I wanted to learn, and he responded (回应) by showing me the bike he had learned how to 1 as a kid. At first, I was 2 , but then I realized that if other kids could do it, I could do it too. I decided to give it a 3 .
First, I made sure I 4 all the protective equipment(设备). I jumped on the shiny bike, and got ready to go. My dad 5 telling me, “Believe in yourself, and try again.” I kicked on the pedals(踏板). My street is up on a hill, making it a very 6 ride going down. At that moment I had all the 7 in the world. I had never done something so 8 in my life.
When I got back to my house, my dad said, “Great!” He patted(轻拍) me on the back. “Now that you did this, I think you can do anything!” He was 9 of me because I never gave up, even if I fell or could not ride my bike well. It was getting late. I was pretty 10 at that point. My dad suggested we stop to 11 my accomplishment(成就). My parents, brother and sister cheered for me.
I still 12 that day as if it were yesterday. It was one of the happiest days of my life. One thing is for sure — I will never forget it.

Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behaviour. One showed that adults are much more cooperative(合作的) if they work in a system based on rewards. Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.
They had about two hundred college students play the game known as the Prisoner’s Dilemma. The game is based on the tension(矛盾) between the interests (利益) of an individual (个人) and a group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players. Harvard researcher David Rand said the most successful behaviour proved to be cooperation.
The groups that rewarded the most gained about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded the least. The study appeared last month in the journal Science.
The other study is about children. It was presented last month in California at a meeting on violence(暴力) and abuse(虐待). Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More than eight hundred children were aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children were aged five to nine. The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared the results with the first test. Both groups included children whose parents used physical(身体的) punishment and children whose parents did not.
The study says the IQs of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were. In the older group, the difference was almost three points. The more they were punished, the slower their intellectual development would be.
( )1. According to the first study, we mainly infer that _______.
A. the game is called the Prisoner’s Dilemma
B. the less a group punished itself, the fewer points it gained
C. adults are much more cooperative if rewarded
D. the game was introduced in the journal Science
( )2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the second study?
A. Children’s IQs have much to do with physical punishment.
B. The study is about violence and abuse of children.
C. The children tested were divided into groups of four.
D. Children’s intellectual development only depends on their IQs.
( )3. What does the underlined word “spanked” mean?
A. Punished. B. Praised. C. Tested. D. Rewarded.
( )4. What might be the best title for the text?
A. The Best Way to Correct Misbehaviour(不良行为).
B. Punishment Is the Best Way of Education.
C. Cooperation Is the Most Successful Behaviour.
D. Punishment or Reward:Which Works Better on Behaviour?
