Doggie!” I dropped what I was doing and stuck my h

28、ead out of the door. Brandy, our next-door neighbors 11-year-old dog, was over again. “Go away!” I shouted. Brandys owner had died about a month earlier. The womans family had emptied the house and stuck a “For Sale” sign in the front yard, but the family had left old Brandy behind. For weeks, shed

29、been wandering around the neighborhood. It wasnt that I disliked dogs or anything like that. I just didnt think about them very much. I never had a dog growing up and had never thought to get one. Brandy went away and I stayed outside with Adam. Then the phone rang. I went inside to take the call. W

30、hen I came back, Adam was gone. I searched the yard, front and back, then the basketball court and public pool. No trace of him. I was so nervous that I ran home and called the police, then my husband. Police searched the neighborhood. Suddenly I heard another sound: a dog barking. “Its coming from

31、the woods.” one of my neighbors said. We followed the barking to a wooded cliff. There we found my son, and he was just inches away from the edges of the cliff, fast asleep. Brandy was beside him, leaning against him to keep him away from the edge. When I picked Adam up, Brandy sank down on her side

32、, breathing quickly. She must have been holding Adam there for hours!I thanked the police and brought Adam and Brandy back to our house. She hesitated a moment on our doorstep, no doubt remembering the time Id driven her away. “Come on, girl.” I said. “This is your home now.” Brandy stepped in, and

33、once she saw she was really welcome, she relaxed and lay down on the floor just inside the door. Shed done a great thing, and I wondered if she knew it. Shed certainly touched me in a way that no animal ever had. What a pity a dog like Brandy had been left behind!56.WhatdidthewomandowhenshefirstsawB

Although the drivers also complained about the withdrawal of the fuel subsi

36、dy(补贴) by the government, their main complaint was the loss of business because of the rising number of Internet-based car services companies.On Wednesday, news reports came that Beijing transport authorities will take measures to stop the illegal “taxi business” of private cars through the newly ri

37、sing Internet apps, following the footsteps of Shenyang and Nanjing.It is not yet clear how the Shenyang city government will handle the issue and whether it will declare the services offered by market leaders such as Didi Dache, a taxi-hiring app provider backed by Tencent Holdings, and Kuaidi Dach

38、e illegal. But Shanghai transport regulators have set a rule, by banning Didi Zhuanche, or car services offered by Didi Dache in December.Such regulations will cause a setback to the car-hiring companies and investors that are waiting to cash in on the potentially booming business. Just last month,

39、Didi Dache got $700 million in funding from global investors, including Singapore state investment company Temasek Holdings, Russian investment company DST Global and Tencent. Besides, the market is uncertain that Kuaidi Dache is about to finalize its latest round of funding after getting $800 milli

40、on from global investors.Regulatory uncertainties, however, could cast a shadow on the future of the Internet-based car-hiring services, which have become popular in most of Chinas big cities. To be fair, these companies business model is anything but bad. For example, Didi Zhuanche works side by si

41、de with established car rental companies to provide high-end car service mainly for businesspeople through the Internet and mobile phone apps.Every link in this business model chain has legal companies and services. Therefore, it is hard to define it as illegal and ban it. 58.WhydidtaxidriversinShen

44、llegalD. some international investment companies have strong faith in the future of apps-based car rental companies CEngineers should embrace(接受) the arts, Sir John OReilly, a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology, argued in a lecture. About 59% of engineering companies in the IETs

45、 2022 survey feared skill shortages could threaten business. “There is nothing as creative as engineering,” Sir John told the reporter. He says science, technology, engineering and mathematicsoften known as “Stem” subjects, are vital for a modern knowledge economy. But there is a massive shortfall i

46、n the number of recruits(招聘) with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces. Delivering this years Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution, Sir John argued that engineers should recognise the rol

47、e of the arts in their workamong other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession. The lecture, Full Steam Ahead for Growth, advocated a wider adoptionSteam, or science, technology, engineering, arts and maths. Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creativity and an imp

48、ortant component of innovation(创新), important to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness, he argued. “Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field,” said Sir John. Some university engineering departments already cooperated with art schools to develop und

49、erstanding, he told the reporter. In particular he mentioned Cranfield Universitys Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial Colleges work with the Royal College of Art. The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering could improve the

50、success of products, he said. “Aesthetics(美学) is part of it,” he told the reporter, adding that Apples iPod was not the first digital media player, nor the only one that workedbut it came to dominate the market “because it was nice to have”.Sir John said he was not suggesting universities started re

51、quiring A-level art from engineering applicantsthe key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences. But an emphasis on creative skills would help “broaden the pool and attract more people in”. 61. According to a recent study by the Royal Academy _.A. skill shortages could thre

56、of my self-proclaimed(自称的) Month of Gratitude, my five-year-old son woke up “bored” at 5:15 a.m., I spied a speeding ticket in my wifes purse, and our water heater spluttered to its death as I was getting into the shower. Ordinarily, I would have started complaining and the day would have been off t

57、o an ugly start. But this day was different. How cute my childs dimples (酒窝) are. How fetching my wifes taste for adventure. Only 29 days to go.Just a week earlier, as I struggled with the feeling that Id been put on this earth to load and unload the dishwasher, Id decided it was time to end my refl

58、exive complaining. But it wasnt simply the little things that were annoying me. All of a sudden, my friends were dealing with bad newscancer diagnoses, divorce, job loss. Shouldnt I be celebrating my relative good fortune?Id heard about the feel-good benefits of a gratitude attitude. Hoping for tips

59、, I called professor Emmons, who pioneered research on the benefits of positive thinking. Emmons quoted new studies that indicated that even pretending to be thankful raises levels of the chemicals associated with pleasure and contentment. He recommended keeping a log of everything Im grateful for i

60、n a given week or month.I followed his suggestions, but my first attempts at keeping a gratitude list were pretty weak: coffee, naps, caffeine in general. As my list grew, I found more uplift: freshly picked blueberries; the Beatles White Album; that Im not bald.By day three, I was on a tear, thanki

61、ng every grocery bagger and parent on the playground like Id just won an Oscar and hanging Post-it notes to remind myself of the next days thank-you targets: the mailman, my sons math teacher. But soon, the full-on approach started to burn me out. Researchers call it the Pledge of Allegiance(效忠誓言) e

62、ffect. “If you overdo gratitude, it loses its meaning or, worse, becomes a chore,” professor Emmons told me when I mentioned my low spirits. Be selective, he advised, and focus on thanking the unsung heroes in your life.Then professor Emmons suggested a “gratitude visit.” Think of a person who has m

63、ade a major difference in your life and whom youve never properly thanked. Compose a detailed letter to him or her that expresses your appreciation in concrete terms, then read it aloud, face-to-face.I immediately flashed on Miss Riggi, my eighth-grade English teacher. She was the first one to open

64、my eyes to Hemingway, Faulkner, and other literary giants. To this day, I am guided by her advice (“Never be boring”). I booked plane tickets to my hometown, Scranton, Pennsylvania.Miss Riggi was shorter than I remember, though unmistakable with her still long, black hair and bright, intelligent eye

65、s. After a slightly awkward hug and small talk, we settled in. I took a deep breath and read.“I want to thank you in person for the impact youve had on my life,” I began. “Nearly 30 years ago, you introduced my eighth-grade class to the wonders of the written word. Your passion for stories and chara

66、cters and your enthusiasm for words made me realize there was a world out there that made sense to me.” And whether it was Miss Riggis enormous smile when I finished the letter, or the way she held it close as we said goodbye, my feeling of peace and joy remained long after I returned home.Since the

67、n, I have written several more gratitude letters, and my wife and I both summon our “training” when we feel saddened by life. The unpleasant matters are still there, but appreciation, Ive learned, has an echoand its loud enough to drown out the complaints in a low tone of one man emptying the dishwa

68、sher.65. The author didnt start complaining when he met with unpleasant experiences because _.A. he thought the day was different from beforeB. it was one of his self-proclaimed day of GratitudeC. his son became more cute and his wife more adventurousD. he could manage these little unhappy things in

69、 life66. According to the passage, what did Professor Emmons propose to have a gratitude attitude?A. Making oneself appear to be grateful.B. Keeping a detailed dairy.C. Thinking positively in a given time.D. Recording everything appreciated for a certain time.67. According to the context, “gratitude

70、 visit” in Paragraph 6 refers to _.A. visiting someone with a detailed letterB. calling on someone with an appreciated letterC. seeing someone you owe gratitude toD. seeing someone personally68. The authors reunion with his English teacher, Miss Riggi, shows that _.A. the author was desperate to see

71、 his teacherB. his teacher had great impact on himC. his teacher still had a deep impression of the authorD. the author wanted to testify the professors proposal69. The last paragraph shows that _.A. professor Emmons suggestions were effective to the authorB. professor Emmons suggestions were unprac

72、tical to the authorC. the author and his wife learn how to show gratitude to othersD. professor Emmons suggestions were considered as unacceptable70. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. How to pay a gratitude visit.B. How to make matters differently.C. How to be than

If so, think again. A new study released by Brookings Brow

74、n Center on Education Policy shows that todays students have no more homework than their parents did when they were in school. Numerous articles and reports over the past few decades have suggested Americas schools are overloading kids with more and more homework. But the Brookings study argues the

75、opposite: homework loads have not changed over the past 30 years.The studys author, Tom Loveless, reviewed surveys taken by kids and parents about how much homework young students have. The results showed that the typical elementary student has 30-45 minutes of homework each night. The average high-

76、schooler has about an hour. These numbers have remained the same since 1984.In a set of guidelines published by the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), the amount of time students should spent on homework is their grade level multiplied by ten minutes. For example, a third-grader should have

77、30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on. Loveless, who was a sixth-grade teacher in the 1980s, says this system has stayed consistent into the 21st century.One change that occurred over the past three decades, however, is among 9-year-oldsthe average age of a third-grader. In 19

78、84, more 9-year-olds had no homework at all, versus today. “Whats happened is, there were a number of kids at age 9 who had no homework in 1984, but now that number does have some homework,” Loveless told TFK. “Though it is a little amount of work, it is still an increase in the amount of time spent

79、 on homework for third-graders.”Homework is an important part of a students education. Some teachers argue that homework prepares kids for state tests and for college. They worry that a lighter homework load will put kids at a disadvantage. “Homework has benefits that go well beyond whats going on i

80、n school,” says Harris Cooper, a University of Missouri psychology professor who has studied homeworks effect on test scores. Kids learn to be organized, manage their time and master new skills without a teachers help.Teachers give two reasons for assigning a lot of homework. First, they say, the go

81、vernment now requires schools to meet higher-than-ever achievement goals for students. Second, they know many parents want their children to be able to get into the nations best colleges and universities. These parents believe homework is a way to ensure students are learning at their full capacity.

82、People who favor homework argue that it can have many other beneficial effects. They claim it can help students develop good study habits, and recognize that learning can occur at home as well as at school.TitleToo much homework?Traditional thoughtKids in America are overloaded with (71)_ amounts of

83、 homework.The (72)_ of a new studyHomework loads now remain the (73)_ as what they were 30 years ago.Data related to homework On average, the elementary student (74)_ 30-45 minutes on homework each night and the high-schooler about an hour.According to the PTA, students grade level multiplied by 10

105、in fourth. Thats Texas Team, who are the youngest group here today. Unfortunately, the violinist played so quietly that we couldnt hear him. So bad luck to Texas Team. Third was Eastside. They are such good dancers they should enter for a dance competition. And with a bit more practice on the music

106、theyll do very well. In second place is Third Avenue. They did well, especially their young guitarist, but the singer looked so unhappy we thought maybe he didnt want to win! Never mind you nearly won, so better luck next time. Congratulations to The Storm who are our winners today. The singer had such a great voice that we had to give them first place. Well done.
