Why open a school? If you ask Nadia Lopez this question, she would simply answer: to close a prison.
Lopez is the founder of Mott Hall Bridges Academy, a public school in Brooklyn, one of the poorest neighborhoods in New York City. It faced many problems: a lack of money, teachers, and parental education and competition from neighborhood gangs(帮派).
The greatest challenge is to get in touch with children without hope. At first, Lopez only had 45 kids to start. If she asked a 13-year-old, “Where do you see yourself in five years?” the answer would be, “I don’t know if I will live that long.” Or to have a young woman say to her that she had a lifelong goal of working in a fast-food restaurant.
These students had no idea that there were opportunities beyond their neighborhood, said Lopez, who shared the story in a TED speech.
Fortunately, Lopez and her coworkers didn't give up, and have made every effort to keep their students active and hopeful.
“We call our students 'scholars’, because they're lifelong learners. I chose the royal colors of purple and black because I want them to be reminded that they are children of great peoples, and that through education, they are future engineers, scientists and even leaders who can and will take over this world,” Lopez said.
A popular New York blogger heard about the school and wrote a post about it, telling how the children struggled, and why people must make education a priority(首要事情). The post reached millions of people. About 1.4 million dollars were raised for the school and its students got to take field trips to colleges and universities, and study in a STEM program.
“So far, we have had three graduating classes, at a 98 percent graduation rate. This is nearly 200 children,” said Lopez.
26. What is the biggest challenge Lopez has found?
A. There are too many prisons in the neighborhood.
B. Too many children have gone to prison.
C. Many children are living without hope.
D. There is competition from local gangs.
27. To help the students, Lopez and her coworkers .
A. tell them that they are learning from experts
B. paint the students' faces purple and black
C. encourage them to study and be confident.
D. help them get used to their neighborhoods
28. How did the New York blogger offer help?
A. By writing a post about the school online.
B. By reminding the students to work hard.
C. By writing letters to the students.
D. By taking students to universities for a visit.
29. What do we know about Lopez from the story?
A. She hopes to make money from the school.
B. She grew up in a poor neighborhood.
C. She graduated from a STEM program.
D. She is a woman who dreams big.
30. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Opportunities are important.
B. Education gives hope to hopeless children.
C. Students in the poorest neighborhood are more likely to succeed.
D. It’s important to go to college.
C
When I traveled in Europe, I noticed a huge difference in the way dogs were treated compared to the United States. Dogs were everywhere: restaurants and buses and countless other places.
It got me wondering why European dogs and American dogs behave so differently. In Europe, dogs tend to be welcome in public spaces and they are calm, relaxed and quiet there. In the United States, however, pet dogs aren’t welcome in most public spaces, even in the public places where they are allowed. Dogs are dogs no matter where they are born, and the differences in behavior are often related to a dog’s temperament and training received as a pet.
Our behavior has a lot to do with why our dogs might have more behavioral problems, and the good news is that there’s something we can do about it.
Give your dog some space
One small thing that we can do is to admire them from a distance. Kama Brown, a professional dog trainer, said that “in America, we tend to comment(评论)on each other’s dogs, we tend to interact with each other’s dogs.” But, she said, “In Europe，they don’t tend to do that as much.”
Set proper boundaries(界限）
When people think about boundaries, they generally think we’re talking about the dog — but most of the time, the main problem is people.
To make our dogs behave well, we shouldn't put them in uncomfortable situations, whether out or at home with guests and family. Many children are bitten by dogs that they know and that are in the home. This has less to do with the dog and more to do with the child. Educate family and friends of all ages about when it is and isn’t OK to pat your dog to make sure everyone stays and feels safe, including your dog.
Use positive training methods
Dog training takes time, and dogs learn best when we use positive training methods that gently help and encourage dogs. “It’s important for dog owners to learn more about how to train dogs in a proper way.” Dr. Todd said.
No matter where we live, we can all be a little more thoughtful about how we deal with the dogs we meet.
31. What didn’t the writer find in Europe?
A. European dogs are treated differently from American dogs.
B. European dogs and American dogs behave so differently.
C. Dogs are calm, relaxed and quiet in public spaces.
D. Pet dogs aren’t welcome in most public places.
32. What does the underlined word “temperament” probably mean?
A. 温度B. 禀性C. 体型D. 种类
33. How many ways are mentioned to deal with dogs’ behavioral problems in the passage?
A. Two.B. Three.C. Four. D. Five.
34. What’s the right way to set proper boundaries?
A. Put dogs in uncomfortable situations.
B. Educate family and friends about the proper time to pat your dog.
C. Let guests and family play with dogs at home.
D. Allow people to comment on and interact with your dog.
35. Who is likely to be interested in reading this passage?
A. Pet shop owners. B. Dog owners. C. Zoo keepers. D. Dog trainers.
D
When the winter vacation is coming to an end, how many of you have burned the midnight oil to finish your homework over the last few days? What about during the school year? When you get home from school, do you start working on your homework right away?
It can be hard to be this responsible. A lot of people tend to put off difficult or annoying tasks until they absolutely(完全地) must be done. 36 .
Procrastination (拖延症) is a common problem for many people, in fact. 37 .
However, this is usually not a good thing, as you have to work harder and faster if you wait until there is little time left. 38 .
I myself am a bit of a procrastinator(拖延症患者). But most of the time, I try to finish my work earlier rather than later. It just makes more sense(行得通)-if I finish my work now, I’ll have more time to relax or work on other projects later. 39 . But once I do, the work gets done quickly and with little stress.
Everyone procrastinates from time to time. 40 .You don't have to beat yourself up over it- after all, we still need time to relax and take a break from our busy lives. Just make sure you still get your homework done on time.
A. It's a natural thing to do.
B. They’re called procrastinators(拖延症患者).
C. This means your work will probably be of less quality.
D. Sometimes it just feels easier to wait until the last minute to do certain things.
E. It can be hard to motivate(激励) myself to get started sometimes.
