28、 a stir （轰动）in 1930 when it was exhibited for the first time at the Art Institute of Chicago and awarded a prize of 300 dollars. Newspapers across the country carried the story, and the painting of a farmer and a younger woman posed before a white house brought the artist instant fame. In 1930, Gran

29、t Wood, an American painter with European training, noticed a small white house built in the small southern Iowa town of Eldon.

31、ately; the models sat separately and never stood in front of the house. The Gothic style of the house inspired the paintings title.American Gothic remains one of the most famous paintings in the history of American art.

32、 used it to satirize（讽刺） the narrow-mindedness that has been said to characterize Midwestern culture.

This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kle

36、itman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work, you may say that youre “hot”. Thats true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people that pea

37、k comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues （自言自语）as “Get up , John !

38、 peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You cant change your energy cycle, but you can make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe youre sleepy in th

39、e evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to . If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This wont change your cycle , but youll get

40、up steam and work better at your low point .Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a yawn and stretch.

44、n the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it. Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changedno examination is perfect but to have no tests or examinations w

45、ould mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the value

46、s and the purpose of each teacher. Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them- a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she

47、 is suitable for the job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defence of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her

48、 schools reputation, unable to compete with the child from the favored school. The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have e

49、ven suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection.
