(2017·河北衡水中学高三第二次模拟)
Parents play an important role in determining the educational success of their children.Their expectations for how well their children do at school and the environment at home are important determinants of achievement.Family influence is great in helping a child to realize academic accomplishment. Children who live in homes in which the parents are academically successful，once they become parents，often feel that their job is to prepare their children to do likewise in school.They take their kids on vacation，but they spend time learning about local history at museums.They also may ensure that their kids have time to study and understand the importance of school attendance.School is a priority for these families，and children who live in them grow up with a focus on learning.
Parents who have high academic expectations and those who adopt a more authoritarian parenting style for their children often have children who do well in school.However，it can be dangerous to set expectations too high，such that a child feels overly pressured to perform.These types of expectations should be balanced with those that relate directly to the child，so that they will be able to personally set and reach goals，work hard and to enjoy being curious. Parents who support their children in their academic work also positively
influence their performance.This takes different forms for families.Some parents might help with homework，or volunteer at school.Others provide a quiet study space，a consistent bedtime or a positive example of hard work and discipline.How parents show support for their child’s academic career varies by family and by culture.No matter how it is shown，it is a vital part of a child’s academic success to know their parents are behind their efforts.
A love of reading in a household can also positively affect a child’s academic attainment.Learning new vocabulary，and how to predict，understand and respond to a text are just some of the skills children can learn at home that are important in an academic environment.Reading books，newspapers，magazines and websites with children on a regular basis sets them up for success at school.

(2018·苏北四市高三第一次调研)I’m sitting at home working，minding my business，and the mobile rings.It’s DC Lyle from Wandsworth police station.He says that my name was given to Crimestoppers anonymously as a potential witness to the ‘Putney Pusher’ incident.Remember that madman who pushed a woman into the path of a bus on Putney Bridge while out for his morning jog?
Well，six months on and they still haven’t found him—and DC Lyle wants to meet.
I say I couldn’t possibly help as I wasn’t a witness.DC Lyle says he still needs to meet.I reaffirm there really was no point，I could be of no value; I wasn’t there.DC Lyle insists，and in doing so mentions that he has my email address，and that he tried to see me at my office yesterday (I wasn’t in).What? Somebody gave the police my office address，email address and phone number.Who? Feeling invaded and annoyed，I tell DC Lyle he could come at 10 a.m.the

day.I

and
only__then__the__penny__dropped.I was a suspect.
I must know.Who was the person who put my name forward? They obviously know me，but not well enough to call me first and let me know they were going to report me to the police.Or perhaps they do know me well and have it in for me.That’s for another day.
I frantically search for the video footage of the incident online.The images are grainy.Squint (眯眼看) the eyes and even I can see some resemblance.I look at the Pusher’s jogging gear.Not premium，I might be OK.He’s got fat calves.Result.Mine are sculpted (my best feature).The Pusher’s got obvious moobs.Oh dear.I carry some permanent holiday weight，I admit it.All it would take is a bored jury and a half-decent prosecution barrister，and none of this would be beyond reasonable doubt.
I need evidence proving my innocence，so I fire up the iCal to see what my movements were on 5 May.There is nothing in the diary.This is not going well. After a fitful night I wake early.9：45 a.m.arrives.The door buzzer goes.It’s DC Lyle and his sidekick.Of course they’re early，sneaky bastards.Look relaxed，Joel.Keep yourself together.DC Lyle and DC Sidekick show me their badges.I show them how extremely nice and friendly I am.Once installed on my sofa (I didn’t offer tea) they hit me with it—I am indeed a suspect.
“Someone put you forward as the person that did this，and we’re here to investigate whether you did.Where were you on the morning of 5 May between
