39、story timeC. the school band D. the guitar lessonsDRecently, online high schools in America have sparked (激发) a debate about whether or not taxpayers money should be used to support online education. Online schools receive the same amount of funding as all other public schools, even though they dont

40、 have to pay for rent or school equipment. States should use their educational funds to improve education at real schools, not to support online programs.Some students only use online classes to supplement their school work.

42、ote regions, most school systems are upset that they are losing more students each year to these online programs.

43、 the help they need as they are unable to talk face-to-face with them, to find exactly what theyre having difficulty with.

49、. Why? Scientists are finding evidence that gum chewing may be good for your health. It may even help improve your test scores. This exciting research is just beginning. And in the meantime, companies are also experimenting with adding vitamins, minerals, medicines, and other substances that could g

50、ive gum the power to cure headaches and fight everything from serious diseases to bad breath. Other researchers are finding that gum might work better than a pill to deliver medicines and other substances into the bloodstream. Thats because the lining (膜) of our cheeks can absorb certain substances

51、more quickly than our stomachs and intestines (肠) can.That discovery could help other researchers develop medicine-containing gums that fight colds, ease headaches, battle nervousness, and more. Scientists might even create antimicrobial (抗菌的) gums that cure bad breath. Those projects may take years

52、, but gum scientists have already had at least one recent success: Theyve created a gum that could help us stay awake.Researchers have produced a gum called Stay Alert. Each stick has as much caffeine as a cup of coffee. It can take an hour for the caffeine in coffee to have its full effect, but the caffeine in Stay Alert hits in just a few minutes.The gum is easy to transport and its stable in cold and hot climates. Unlike a pill, it doesnt require water to swallow. Those qualities make it easy for soldiers to use.
