If he got it wrong, he would get very angry.Usually kids could sit q2 in class. However, Tyler was just loud. One day, Tyle

12、r was talking while I was teaching. I said to him, “Tyler, why not join in our discussion i3 of having one of your own?” He got up from his chair, pushed it over, and s4 something I cant remember.

22、amiliesB14、What time of day are you quick to think or act? Are you more of a morning person? Or does your brain need a few hours to get going? A lot of research suggests that we should pay attention to our body clock. It can tell us what time of day we are best able to perform, according to the Wall

23、 Street Journal.When it comes to the human brain, many people work best later in the morning. This is because the bodys temperature takes time to rise through the day. Taking a warm shower when you wake up can help speed this up.But everyones body clock is different. Morning people will rise early a

24、nd work better early in the day. Evening people will wake later but their brain will work better toward the end of the day.Research shows that were better at some activities at certain times of the day. Physical performance is at its best between 3 pm and 6 pm, so its better to exercise later in the

25、 day.Between noon and 4 pm, people are getting tired. This is partly because we are slow to think or act after eating a big meal. Research also shows that we become sleepy around 2 pm.Finally, it is best to eat during our active periods. This allows our body to burn calories better and stops our blo

26、od sugar levels from getting too high.1Many people perform best later in the morning because _.Athey cant get up very early Bthe bodys temperature needs time to riseCthey have to take a shower first Dthats when the brain wakes up2Evening people had better _.Arise early and work in the morning Brise

29、thematics (STEM) related classes in primary,middle and high school education in the U S. The reason for this direction is well founded:research and test scores from the 1980s and 1990s showed that our students had fallen behindtheir international peers in all of these subject areas. Education offici

30、als, teachers andparents all felt that the situation needed to be changed, and quickly. However, in the rushto play catchup in STEMrelated areas, theres one important aspect that is beingneglected (忽略): the Fine and Performing Arts, particularly drama.Its long been understood that a study of drama a

31、t the primary, middle and high schoollevel helps students improve in many areas, such as selfconfidence, selfexpression,communication skills, teamwork, and imagination. Most educators and parents agree thatall of these are important for students to develop at any age, but it is difficult for the sam

32、eparents and teachers to prioritize (优先安排) study time and classroom time to a subject likedrama over subjects like Math, Physics or Computer Science. Its even more difficult forpolicy makers and school officials to channel funds (资金) towards classes like drama,when the skills arts subjects develop a

33、re considered “soft skills.” When the modern world iscalling out for “hard” skills, like those needed to succeed in the techdriven 21st century,how can they possibly prove it is reasonable to spend their funds that are becoming smallerand smaller on anything but STEM subjects?The short answer to the

34、 question “why spend time and money on drama?” is that dramaeducation has been scientifically proven to improve students achievement, especially incommunication skills that are very important to a STEM education. As we develop studentswith highly refined skills in STEM subjects, its equally importan

35、t that we train the teachersthat will support continued growth in these areas. An active, communicative teacher is thebest way to get students on board in the study of STEM subjects, which can be unbearablydry. The best way to develop active communication skills? Drama. The next area in whichthe com

36、munication skills can be developed is publication and conference presentation.Drama improves students public speaking skills necessary for STEM students to effectivelypresent papers in conferences and their writing skills necessary to publish papers. Its alsovery important for students to be able to

37、 work well with one another. In the real STEMworld, almost all scientific work happens in teams. Without the “ soft ” people skillsnecessary to navigate (导航) all of these interactions, no matter how technologically skilledone becomes, he or she will be at a disadvantage without the ability to commun

38、icate andwork in teams.While the nationwide trend (趋势) to focus on playing catchup in STEM education isreasonable, practical, and absolutely necessary, its important not to forget the huge effectarts, specifically drama education, have on the overall education of our children. Thequestion parents, e

39、ducators, and policy makers should be asking themselves is not “can weafford to support arts education in schools?” but rather “can we afford not to?”1Why did Americans start to stress STEM related classes?ABecause the world has moved into a techdriven century.BBecause STEM classes have long been ne

40、glected in America.CBecause education officials prefer STEM classes to art classes.DBecause US students are expected to be at an advantage in these areas.2The word “channel” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “ ”.AaffordBdirectCcreateDraise3The third paragraph is mainly about .Athe benefits of drama educa

42、an students have made progress in playing catchupD16、 The monarch is one of the most beautiful butterflies. It is famous for its yearly migration（迁徙）from the northern part of North America to Mexico, There, millions of monarchs spend the winter together in one small area. This migration is one of th

43、e greatest wonders of nature. Yet this behavior has now put the monarch at risk.Every September, millions of monarchs from the United States fly to Mexico. After about two months of flying time, they reach their sanctuary(庇护所)in central Mexico. Then, in the warm climate of private and quiet valleys,

44、 far from most human activity, the butterflies create one of natures great scenes. They cover every tree with bright color. The show lasts until spring, when the butterflies return north.While they are all crowded together, the monarchs are highly weak. If the environment in those valleys was distur

45、bed, the whole species could be hurt or even die out. That is why for many years scientists who knew about the monarchs winter sanctuary kept the location a secret.In recent years, however, the monarchs secret has been discovered. Today, the butterflies winter sanctuary is crowded with tourists, who

46、 disturb the environment. Worse still, local farmers who need more land to farm have begun to take up the area. They are cutting down trees, making it difficult for the butterflies to survive. They should not farm in the monarchs sanctuary.People should act immediately to protect the species winter

47、sanctuary. Local farmers must be helped so that they no longer need to take land from the butterflies. Tourist visits to the butterflies hidden valleys must also be limited. Unless these steps are taken soon, in a few years the monarch butterfly of North America may be just a beautiful memory.1What

48、do we know about monarch butterflies?AThey fly to the US in autumn.BThey spend the winter together.CThey are the most beautiful butterflies.DThey have been known to human beings until recent years.2What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?AThe monarchs diet.BThe monarchs colors.CThe monarchs life cycle.DThe

49、 monarchs migration.3Why did scientists keep the monarchs winter sanctuary a secret?ATo keep the valleys from being destroyed.BTo stop farmers from cutting down trees.CTo do their research secretlyDTo protect the monarchs.4What is the purpose of the text?ATo tell about a great place to watch monarch

50、 butterflies.BTo provide information about monarch butterflies.CTo ask people to protect monarch butterflies.DTo call on people to save the environment.E17、 Getting electricity has always been a problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru, South America. However, thin

51、gs went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce. Luckily, researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lim

52、a, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED l

53、ight bulb. While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the ides is quite simple. As plants create their food (using the suns energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they pr

54、oduce electrons the building blocks of electrical energy. The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in the lamps batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can power a 50-watt Led light for two hours - enough time for local villagers to get th

55、eir evening work done. The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2015. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest

56、 communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.1What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1?AThey are difficult to use and create pollution.BThey are expensive to buy and easily damaged.CThey are difficult to repair and produce little light.DThey are expensive to use and can be bad fo

In order to solve the population problem, the government carried out one-child policy (政策) before. However, for some time, many people see not only its advantages but also disadvantages. From 2

60、016, two-child policy is put into effect. In my opinion two-child policy is the present for the only child. The only child in the family is always lonely. For some families, maybe the parents are the only child and they can also have only one child. When their child grows up and they grow older, and
