Pakistani youth activist Malala Yousafzai was awarded the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, October 10. She is the youngest Nobel winner in hi

11、story. Malala shares the prize with Kailash Satyarthi, a 60-year-old man from India who has helped lead a movement to end child slavery around the world.Malala Yousafzai has never been ordinary. When she was just 11 years old，she started blogging about the Taliban takeover of her hometown of Mingora

12、, in northwestern Pakistan. Taliban members follow an extreme version of Islam, and believe young girls like Malala should not go to school Classrooms throughout the Swat district of Pakistan, where Malala was living, were closed for several months. Malala spoke publicly about her desire to go back

13、to school “All I want is an education，” she told one television broadcaster.When the Pakistani government regained control, Malala was able to return to class. She continued to blog and speak out about girls, right to education. But on October 9，2022, the Taliban tried to silence her. A gunman board

14、ed her school bus and shot her on the left side of her forehead Malala survived, and showed great courage and optimism during her long recovery. During this time, she became a symbol of the struggle for girls rights all over the world.Malalas mission for peace is unstoppable. Nine months after she w

15、as shot, she gave a now-famous speech at the UN. “They thought that the bullets would silence us. But they failed,” she said. “And then, out of that silence came thousands of voicesWeakness, fear and hopelessness died Strength, power, and courage were bom. ”21.

In October, 2022.BRecently,scientists attending a meeting in Chicago presented new studies showing how food and its production affect glo

18、bal warming. They offered some suggestions for how to eat in a more environmen-tally friendly way.For many years, scientists have warned us that our planet is getting warmer. If current trends continue,animals may start to die off and life could get very difficult for everyone. The temperature is ri

19、sing because humans have been releasing massive amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which surround the planet and keep heat from escaping. One of these gases is carbon dioxide.Most carbon dioxide we produce comes from the process of making and eating food, the scientists reported in Chi

20、cago. The production of meat contributes to a lot of carbon dioxide. And much of meats contribution comes from beef, which is responsible for releasing even more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.The process of making a hamburger, for example, requires a lot of energy. A cow has to be fed and rai

21、sed, and cows wastes are a major source of greenhouse gases. After the cow is killed, the meat has to be processed and shipped to a consumer, which takes fuel. And most of the cow wont even be used for meat that people eatBy the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate, it has taken a heavy

22、toll on the environment It is believed that the process of making a half-pound of beef burger adds about 19 times the weight of hamburgers in carbon dioxide.The message is clear： We can greatly reduce the production of greenhouse gases by eating less beef. Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken d

23、o less harm to the environmentat least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released. Nathan Pelletier，a scientist at Dalhousie University in Canada, reported that if everyone in industrial countries ate chicken instead of beef, we would cut the earths greenhouse gases by more than half.All ki

24、nds of meat, the scientists reported, are harder on the planet than vegetables. To grow and eat a pound of potatoes, for example, sends less than one quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air. So shifting our diet to less meat and more vegetables may do the world some good.24. What is likely to h

To suggest a lot of energy is needed when making a hamburger.26. The author believes one effective way to fight global warming is .A. we sh

28、ption is the main cause of greenhouse gases.C. People in industrial countries consume more beef than fish.D. Eating more beef is a more efficient way to save more energy.CSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children which o

29、nly children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading ability on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible.Teaching and learni

30、ng are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to think up the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity. It can be

31、 seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, wha

32、t then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest (探索）for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience to children ”.When the roles of teacher and

33、learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is removed Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of

34、learning to read by reading.28. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that .A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about re

According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when A. children become highly motivatedB. reading enriches childrens experienceC. teacher and le

36、arner roles are interchangeableD. teaching helps children in the search for knowledge31.The main idea of the passage is that .A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students leam to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possibleC. reading ability is something

37、 acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated than generally believedDFor kids and many adults, a San Diego vacation means theme parks and other attractions.

46、? 36 Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet，shy, and you would rather follow than lead.You tend to be pessimist (悲观主义者）.At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the e
