Teachers are having lessons in how to read children's body language and change their own to deal with bad behavior in the classroom.
Thousands have been trained to watch pupils' gestures, mannerisms, facial expressions and speech, in order to know what they are thinking and how they feel.
Teachers are encouraged to copy a child's gestures to give him a message that the teacher understands him.
If a child is talking with his left hand touching his chin（下巴）, teachers should stand and hold their left hand to their chin, for example. Teachers should also cross their legs if a student does while he's speaking.
The training is part of a set of exercises called Neuro-Linguistic Programming（NLP）, which is designed to improve communication and behavior.
More than 1, 200 teachers in England have received training in NLP. Hundreds of schools also pay thousands of pounds for the training.
NLP was developed in the 1970s at the University of California in the U. S. Its methods have been employed in a variety of fields, including sales, marketing, and management. In the UK, at least 50 companies now offer courses in NLP, many aimed at（以……为目标）teachers.
Dave Vizard, author of Meeting the Needs of Disaffected Students, said the technique was a new way to deal with poor behavior in the classroom.
"Matching body language means looking at the world through the young persons' eyes, "he said.
However, some people say that NLP is just another educational fashion that takes teachers' attention away from good teaching.
Frank Furedi, a sociology professor at Kent University, says, "Every few years there's a big idea that becomes the theme（主题）in education.
"We've had raising self-respect, multiple intelligence well-being and happiness, and the latest is NLP. "
"They are tricks and are then replaced with the next big thing. "
1. Which may be a main purpose of the lessons
A. Making studies more enjoyable.
B. Improving classroom management.
C. Helping pupils know about themselves.
D. Teaching students about body language.
2. What should teachers do if a schoolboy moves his head to the side
A. Tell him to stand up straight.
B. Make the same movement.
C. Touch their chin.
D. Cross their legs.
3. What was Vizard's attitude to NLP
A. Afraid. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Uncaring.
4. What does Furedi say about NLP
A. It won't stay popular for long.
B. It is a great educational idea.
C. It helps teachers in many ways.
D. It goes against a lot of old ideas.
B
Many high school students consider a college education useless. Therefore, they choose not to go to college. If you're one of them, think again. Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.
Schools and universities are the first sources of knowledge. We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation. More knowledge will be gained after you start working, but without an education, that job will not be within easy reach. Knowledge leads to knowledge.
While limited within the walls of the educational institutions, we openly explore other cultures of the world. We come to know that ours is not the only culture. Other cultures have valuable insights to share, enriching our own at last. Education also makes us want to travel and interact with various cultures, broadening our horizons.
When there's a downturn（衰退）in the economy, those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished grade school and have a limited skill set. The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.
When you' re skillful and knowledgeable, you get to “rub knees” with people of similar backgrounds and tastes. It means a good education leads to excellent networking Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.
A good education makes you a more interesting and confident person. You can talk about ideas and events instead of just listening to other people. An educated person doesn't gossip, have a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.
1. What is the passage mainly about
A. Sources of knowledge.

Can you imagine a world without music？Studies show that public schools across the country are cutting back on music classes to save money. Worse, some schools have never had music classes to begin with. But without them, students’ academic growth and emotional health could suffer. In fact music classes are necessary for all students in schools.
Recent studies by Brown University have shown that students who received music education classes were better in maths and reading skills than those without music classes. Another study by the College Board found that students taking music and art classes got higher points. Students' academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education.
Music programmes in public schools also help to add to a student's sense of pride and self-confidence. Teens today have too many learning tasks. Besides, they have family problems, self-confidence problems, relationship troubles, and other troubles. All of these can stop academic success, but music education can help. A study by the Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse found that students who took part in school music programmes were less likely to turn to drugs. Music programmes encourage students to work together to produce an excellent performance .
Music crosses language, class, cultural and political boundaries（界限）.Music allows students from different countries to connect. For example, at a school talent show, a new Japanese student played a piano duet（二重奏）with an American classmate. Although they could not communicate verbally（口头上）, they were able to read the music in order to play the duet. Two students from different cultures worked as a team confidence and common purpose through music.
The gift of music is priceless. We need to be sure to have necessary music classes for all students. The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.
1. What can we learn about education with music classes
A. It allows schools to make more profits
B. It leads to a lot of emotional problems easily
C. It helps students to improve their schoolwork
D. It has a great influence on the culture of the country
2. What do the two studies seem to show
A. Not all students take part in music lessons
B. Students with great success like to attend music lessons
C. Music plays an important role in students’ success.
D. Students having music classes are better in all lessons
3. The example in Paragraph 4 mainly suggests that ________
A. different cultures have different styles of music
B. music makes cross-country communication possible
C. Japan has a good international relationship with America
D. Japanese and American students are good at playing the piano
4. What is the best title for the text
A. How to get Music back
B. Music Education in School
C. Music-a Bridge to Understanding
D. The Importance of Listening to Music

How to Study Smarter，Not Harder
Here are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter，not harder：
Recite As You Study
Reciting----saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section．Test yourself．This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening．
It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding．
Take Fuller Notes
Notes should be in your own words，brief and clear．They should be tidy and easy to read．Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read，since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words．
Study the Middle
The best time to review is soon after you've learned something．You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson，so make sure you focus on the middle when you review．
Sleep On It
Study before going to bed，unless you are very tired．It's easier to remember material you have just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity，because your brain continues to think even after you've fallen asleep．
Combine（结合） Memory and Understanding
There are two ways to remember：by memorizing and by understanding．Multiplication tables，telephone numbers，and math formulas are better learned by rote（死记硬背）．Ideas are best learned by understanding．
The more ways you have to think about an idea，the more meaning it will have；the more meaningful the learning，the better you can remember it．Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts，and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know．Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading．If you are not able to follow the thought，go back to the place where you first got confused and try again．
1.You can notice your mistakes by ______．
A．speaking things out aloud
B．studying the middle
C．taking notes
D．sleeping on it
2.When taking notes，you should ______ to better help you with reading．
A．underline important notes
B．write as quickly as possible
C．write notes in your own words
D．take down every detail
3.Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding？ ______
A．Thinking about an idea in different ways．
B．Going back to what first made you confused and start again．
C．Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know．
D．Reading from the beginning to the end without stop．
B
This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers （ young people aged from 13 to 19）from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes．They will attend US schools，meet US teenagers，and form impressions of the real America．At the same time，about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world．
Here is a two-way student exchange in action．Fred，nineteen，spent last year in Germany with George's family．In turn，George's son Mike spent a year in Fred's home in America．
Fred，a lively young man，knew little German when he arrived，but after two months' study，the language began to come to him．Schools were completely different from what he had expected-much harder．Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room．They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States．There were almost no outside activities．
Family life，too，was different．The father's word was law，and all activities were around the family rather than the individual（个人）．Fred found the food too simple at first．Also，he missed having a car．
"Back home，you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time．In Germany，you walk，but you soon learn to like it．"
At the same time，In America，Mike，a friendly German boy，was also forming his idea．"I suppose I should criticize（批评） American schools，"he says．"It is far too easy by our level．But I have to say that I like it very much．In Germany we do nothing but study．Here we take part in many outside activities．I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens（公民）．There ought to be some middle ground between the two．

"To my surprise，the guests were very impressed by the experience the morning after.Ice hotel was born，" Berquist recalls.
The Ice hotel has come a long way since its humble（简陋的）start.Constructed from 1，000 tons of ice，and 30，000 tons of "Snice"，it now covers an area of over 5，500 square metres.Preparations for the annual hotel begin in March with the harvesting of 5，000 tons of ice from the nearby Torne River.The ice is kept in cold storage until November when about 100 workers and artists get to work carving out a new structure.Ice hotel is typically open for business by mid-December.
This year's hotel comprises（由 组成）36 rooms，including 12 crafted art suites（套间）.Decorated with massive ice stones and carved water shapes，it aims to provide visitors with a good nature experience.The "Dickensian Street" suite promises to take visitors on a tour of 19th-century England，complete with cobbled（铺鹅卵石的）streets，shops，and buildings from the era.Guests are advised to stay inside thermal（保暖的）sleeping bags and wear gloves and winter hats all night.Not surprisingly，most move to the conventional，warmer cabins nearby after a single night.

Experts hope an experimental drug can be as effective against the novel coronavirus in people as it has been on cells in a controlled lab environment.
The US drug，remdesivir（瑞德西韦），began clinical trials on patients in Wuhan, Hubei province, on Wednesday. Other medications, including chloroquine, arbidol and darunavir have also recently been found capable of arresting viral growth in lab cells, but like remdesivir they require more clinical trials to confirm their safety and potency on humans.
The Phase III trials for remdesivir have been approved by China’s National Medical Products Administration and will be conducted by the China-Japan Friendship Hospital in Beijing and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences on patients at the Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital.
A total of 761 patients will participate in two trials—one trial to assess the drug’s potency on 308 cases with mild or moderate infection, and the other on 453 severely infected patients, Cao Bin, head of the clinical trial and vice-president of the friendship hospital, said on Wednesday.
Cao said studies have shown remdesivir is effective in inhibiting the growth of the novel coronavirus in vitro (在生物体外), meaning the procedure was done on cells in a controlled environment outside of a living organism, typically in a petri dish or test tube.
But the drug has yet to show convincing clinical evidence that it can translate its positive in vitro results into actual human patients. Hence, it will require rigorous clinical testing, Cao said.
A 35-year-old patient from the United States infected with the virus was reported seeing noticeable improvement with no obvious side effects after taking the drug, according to the New England Journal of Medicine。
Gilead Sciences, the maker of remdesivir, said in a recent statement that it has been working with government agencies on the novel coronavirus response efforts.
However, the company stressed that remdesivir is an experimental medicine that has only been used in a handful of patients on compassionate grounds, “so we do not have an appropriately robust understanding of the effect of this drug to warrant broad use at this time.”
1. Why does the US drug, remdesivir, began clinical trials
A. To replace the traditional medicine.
B. To confirm their safety and potency on humans.
C. To show whether remdesivir is effective in inhibiting the growth of the novel coronavirus in vitro.
D. To see how it takes effect.
2. Which statement is true according to the passage
A. After taking the drug, a 35-year-old patient was infected with the virus.
B. Doctors had seen apparent success treating a 35-year-old patient infected with the virus.
C. Remdesivir can cure those who are infected with the novel coronavirus.
D. Chinese Hospital does The Phase III trials independently.
3. What’s the author's attitude towards the clinical trial of remdesivir
A. Negative. B. Critical. C. Positive. D. Gloomy.

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither feels hurt by this. Both may exchange greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality（好客）easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes，we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine（日常生活）. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For Americans, it is often considered friendlier to invite a friend to their homes than go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

As we all know, friendship is of great importance in our daily life. A friend can give us help and share our difficulties and happiness. But how to make friends is still difficult to some of us. 1
Be friendly to others. 2 You should try to make a stranger feel at home wherever he happens to be. Think more of others than of yourself and never judge a person by his appearance and clothes.
Be reliable. If you and your friend agree to meet somewhere, don’t be late. If you’re not going to make it on time, call them as soon as you realize it. 3 Be someone that people know they can depend on.
4 Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take the time to learn more about them.
Encourage and support your friends. A true friend always gives encouragement to his friends. 5 Never make fun of or laugh at your friends in front of others. Never leave your friends when they are in trouble. You should come to support them.
A. Be a good listener.
B. A friend to all is a friend to none.
C. When you say you’ll do something, do it.
D. He will stay with them in good as well as bad times.
E. The following information can give you some tips.
F. Smile at others and you are sure to get a smile in return.
G. A true friend should always share the same interest with you.

Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey（调查）by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7-to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15%said they had fallen asleep at school.
How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest：most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal（理想的）. But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35%of 10-to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime Watch TV.
"More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities（机会）to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone, "says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers 'bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.
Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7：25 am to8：30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking；survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl（猫头鹰）on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick（雏鸟）and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults；they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all--LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.
1. What is unavoidable in the author's rescue work according to paragraph 1？
A. Efforts made in vain.
B. Getting injured in his work.
C. Feeling uncertain about his future.
D. Creatures forced out of their homes.

Dear Alfred,
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150+at 17, I'm anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADHD（注意力缺陷多动障碍）. Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.
However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.
While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldn't. So, I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.
Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, I'm learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your videos. This has given me a purpose.
Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public, I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job-Data Analyst-this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.
Thank you. You've given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I'm doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel whole.
This is why you' re saving my life.
Yours,
Tanis
1. Why didn't Tanis go to college after high school
A. She had learned enough about computer science.
B. She had more difficulty keeping focused.
C. She preferred taking online courses.
D. She was too slow to learn.
2. As for the working environment, Tanis prefers .
A. working by herself B. dealing with the public
C. competing against others D. staying with ADHD students
3. Tanis wrote this letter in order to .
A. explain why she was interested in the computer
B. share the ideas she had for her profession
C. show how grateful she was to the center

Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 1 But it seems that many people don't cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn't difficult. 2 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.
3 Fresh fish should smell sweet：you should feel that you're standing at the ocean's edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn't fresh. 4 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you'd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don't cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn't as tasty as the fresh one.
There are many common methods used to cook fish. 5 First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices（调料）. Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. （A larger one will take more time. ）Then, it's ready to serve.
A. Do not buy it.
B. The easiest is to steam it.
C. This is how you can do it.
D. It just requires a little knowledge.
E. The fish will go bad within hours.
F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.
G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.

You may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen（新生）, you still feel nervous that you don't know any upperclassmen or teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces？
Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you can know your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognise a few familiar faces. When you talk to your new classmates, you'll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They're all new to the school and don't know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.
The work in high school is something that freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learnt in middle school giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it's a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.
High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school does such as clubs, music and theatre groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.
High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.
1. What does the underlined word "orientation" mean in Paragraph 2
A. training. B. Game. C. Discussion. D. Examination.

D. The freshman orientation
3. Extracurricular activities mainly help students ________

D. improve their learning ability
4. Who is this passage written for

It was dinner time for the Rangers， a group of mostly Indigenous （本地的） Australians who had spent a long day cleaning up the polluted beaches of the continent's northern coast. Soon they would be eating freshly caught fish and seafood cooked under the stars on an open fire， as their ancestors did.
The Rangers are of more than 100 Indigenous groups spread across Australia who have taken on the job of protecting the land of their forefathers. In Arnhem Land， they are the protectors of 3，300 square miles of land and sea. They comb the beaches by hand， picking up as much rubbish as possible. The task is very difficult as each day it delivers waves of new rubbish.
For the Rangers， cleaning the beaches is more than a vacation. For a people whose culture is strongly tied to the land， protecting the environment is equal to preserving their history.
However， colonization forcefully broke their connection to the land generations ago. Indigenous people were displaced and their cultural practices outlawed. Tens of thousands of years of traditional land management ended， and as a result many parts of the country now face serious disasters from invasive plant and animal species， bush fires and land mismanagement.
In recent years， the government has restored more than 20 percent of Australia's land to Indigenous owners. Since 2007， the Indigenous Rangers Organizations have been at work protecting this land.
Luck，one of the few non-Indigenous employees working with the Rangers，said the combination of old and new techniques and an appreciation for the culture of Indigenous workers has been critical to the program's success.
"You are working with staff who see the world different to you，so there is a much higher focus on the cultural aspects of work and life，" he said.
"Being a ranger is a source of confidence. You feel strong，" said Terence， a senior ranger. "Here we still live on the land. The culture is still alive."
1.What did Indigenous Australians live on in the past？______
A. Rubbish picked up by hand.
B. Catching the fish and seafood.
C. Protecting the land.
D. Invasive plants and animals.
2.Why has the government restored the land to Indigenous owners？______
A. The polluted land needs better management.
B. Their cultural practices were outlawed.
C. The people were too strong.
D. The land belongs to them.
3.What do the Rangers think of cleaning the beaches？______
A. It's a job of their ancestors'.
B. It's just a vacation.
C. It's a difficult task.
D. It's their culture.
4.What can we learn from the last three paragraphs？______
A. Not many employees are the Indigenous Australians.
B. Culture is important to the Indigenous Australians.
C. Their new techniques are successful.
D. Both Luck and Terence are rangers.
