The day of the end-of-semester parly in my son's fifth grade class was approaching. While the other kids seemed thrilled about celebrating their accomplishments by playing games and sharing treats, Jeremy hated the very idea of the gathering.
As he checked off the days leading up to the party,I noticed the way I had adopted to help my quiet child prepare for social events backfired : the rising number of checkmarks felt more like a drum beating louder and louder than a nice way to get into the party groove (状态).
In order not to raise the pressure too high, I decided to contribute something that was easy to purchase—fruit.
That big day came. On the way to school,I reminded Jeremy to make a purchase of some grapes. He chose the ripest bunch of red grapes, but insisted none of his classmates ever be able to detect he had something to bring to the party.
Then as planned at the school gate I said a quick goodbye and ran to inform his teacher about the red grapes in his backpack and managed to be out of the classroom before 1 could be spied by my son.
As I entered my own classroom a few minutes later, I set aside my worries and proceeded (继续)with my regular morning check-ins. Yet this time,I was more intentional(故意的) about taking extra time to help all of my students participate. Over time, I designed lots of techniques to make my quiet students feel more comfortable about sharing thoughts and opinions with others.
So, what happened to Jeremy on that day? His caring teacher performed magic in class. An unusually specific question: “Does anyone have any grapes? ” encouraged Jeremy to take out the fruit. Because of the support he received, he remembers that day with pride for his courage, rather than regret for his inaction.
25.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word“backfired” in Paragraph 2?
A. Worked.B.Disappeared.C.Survived.D.Failed.
26. What can we know about Jeremy?

C.He is inactive in activities.D. Ho studies magic in class.
27. What lesson did the author learn by helping her own child?
A. Sharing can help reduce nervousness.
B. Quiet children can be as active as anyone else.
C. Teachers should try their best to help each student.
D. More should be done to improve teachers' ability.
