gathering coke cups. it was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theaters 75-year history. this time, however, the cleanup was a little different. as one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the buildings end.the film classic the last picture show was the last movie shown in the old theater. though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. theater owner ed bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. the movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the plaza to compete. he added that the theaters location(位置) was also a reason. this used to be the center of town, he said. now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. however, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. bradford sold the building and land

garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. but when john reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. he had more job, satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. most of all, he was happier. far happier.these are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from boston. the study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,” said george vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery. “and because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”vaillants study followed these males in great detail. interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. under vaillant, the researchers compared the mens mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores. points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.the link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. the researchers also found that iq and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. workingat any ageis important. childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competencethe underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. they also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. the most competent adults are those who know how to do this. yet work isnt everything. as tolstoy once said, “one can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love ones work.”28. what do we know about john?a. he enjoyed his career and marriage. b. he had few childhood playmates.c. he received little love from his family. d. he was envied by others in his childhood.29. vaillants words in paragraph 2 serve as _.a. a description of personal values and social valuesb. an analysis of how work was related to competencec. an example for parents expectations of their childrend. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men30. what does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in paragraph 4?a. quick to react. b. having a thin edge.c. clear and definite. d. sudden and rapid.31. what can be inferred from the last paragraph?a. competent adults know more about love than work.b. emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.c. love brings more joy to people than work does.d. independence is the key to ones success.dthe kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. they sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. they have no school. yet they all can chant the english alphabet, and some can make words. the key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their ethiopian village in february by a u.s. group called one laptop per child. the goal is to find out whether kids using todays new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. the massachusetts institute of technology researchers analyzing the project data say theyre already amazed. “what i think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said matt keller, who runs the ethiopia program. the fastest learnerand the first to turn on one of the tabletsis 8-year-old kelbesa negusse. the devices camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. he called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in ethiopia. with his tablet, kelbasa rearranged the letters hsroe into one of the many english animal names he knows. then he spelled words on his own. “seven months ago he didnt know any english. thats unbelievable,” said keller. the project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. it wont be in amharic, ethiopias first language, but in english, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs. 32. how does the ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?ait trains teachers for them.bit contributes to their self-study.cit helps raise their living standards.dit provides funds for building schools.33. what can we infer from kellers words in paragraph 3?athey need more time to analyze data.bmore children are needed for the research.che is confident about the future of the project.dthe research should be carried out in kindergartens.34. it amazed keller that with the tablet kelbesa could _.alearn english words quickly.bdraw pictures of animals.cwrite letters to researchers.dmake phone calls to his friends.35. what is the aim of the project?ato offer ethiopians higher paying jobs.bto make amharic widely used in the world.cto help ethiopian kids read to learn in english.dto assist ethiopians in learning their first language.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。the jobs of the future have not yet been invented. 36 by helping them develop classic skills
