Tom Sawyer Play Is an Adventure
A 35-minute hand-clapping, foot-stomping musical version of a Mark Twain favorite returns with this Tall Stacks festival.
“Tom Sawyer: A River Adventure” has all the good stuff, including the fence painting, the graveyard, the island and the cave. It is adapted by Joe McDonough, with music by David Kisor. That's the local stage writing team that creates many of the Children's Theatre of Cincinnati's original musicals, along with the holiday family musicals at Ensemble Theatre.
This year Nathan Turner of Burlington is Tom Sawyer, and Robbie McMath of Fort Mitchell is Huck Finn.
Turner, a 10th-grader at School for Creative and Performing Arts, is a familiar presence on Cincinnati's stages. He is a star actor of Children's Theatre, having played leading roles in “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and “The Wizard of Oz,” and is fresh from Jersey Production “Ragtime.”
McMath is a junior at Beechwood High School. He was in the cast of “Tom Sawyer” when it was first performed and is a Children's Theatre regular, with five shows to his credit. This summer he attended Kentucky's Governor's School for the Arts in Musical Theatre.
Note to teachers: Children's Theatre has a study guide demonstrating how math and science can be taught through “Tom Sawyer.” For downloadable lessons, visit the official website of Children's Theatre.

Tricks to Becoming a More Patient Person
Here's a riddle:What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common There's one answer: 1 .
In the Digital Age, we're used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips. However, research suggests that if we practiced patience, we'd be a whole lot better off. Here are several tricks.
Practice gratitude(感激)
Thankfulness has a lot of benefits:Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic. 2 . “Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California.
Make yourself wait
Instant gratification(满足) may seem like the most “feel good” option at the time, but psychology research suggests waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run. And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. 3 . Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. You'll soon find that the more patience you practice, the more you start to apply it to other, more annoying situations.
4
So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “ 5 .” You'll then gradually become more patient.
A.Find your causes
B.Start with small tasks
C.Accept the uncomfortable
D.All this adds up to a state of hurry
E.It can also help us practice more patience
F.This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable
G.They're all situations where we could use a little extra patience

UNIT 5 THE VALUE OF MONEY
五年高考练
Ⅰ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了教育戏剧《汤姆·索亚:河上历险记》的创作团队、主演及儿童剧院为老师提供的教育资源。
1.A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It is adapted by Joe McDonough, with music by David Kisor.(本剧由Joe McDonough改编,David Kisor作曲。)”可知,本剧是由David Kisor作曲的。故选A。
2.C 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Turner, a 10th-grader at School for Creative and Performing Arts, is a familiar presence on Cincinnati's stages. He is a star actor of Children's Theatre, having played leading roles in ‘The Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ and ‘The Wizard of Oz’(Turner是创意与表演艺术学校的一名10年级学生,是辛辛那提舞台上的常客。他是儿童剧院的明星演员,曾在《睡谷的传说》和《绿野仙踪》中担任主角)”可知,Turner是有经验的演员;根据第五段中的“McMath is a junior at Beechwood High School. He was in the cast of ‘Tom Sawyer’ when it was first performed and is a Children's Theatre regular, with five shows to his credit.(McMath是比奇伍德高中的三年级学生。他是《汤姆·索亚》首演时的演员,也是经常参加儿童剧院表演的人,有五场演出值得称赞。)”可知,McMath也是经常参加儿童剧院表演的人。综合以上信息可知,这两位演员在舞台上经验丰富。故选C。
3.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Note to teachers: Children's Theatre has a study guide demonstrating how math and science can be taught through ‘Tom Sawyer.’ For downloadable lessons, visit the official website of Children's Theatre.”可知,儿童剧院为教师提供了一份学习指南,展示如何通过《汤姆·索亚》教授数学和科学,可通过儿童剧院的官方网站下载课程。由此可知,儿童剧院为教师提供了教育资源。故选D。

4.拍手的 5.脚踩地板的 6.墓地 7.全体演员 8.常客
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何成为一个更有耐心的人。
1.G 前一句引用了一个谜语,该谜语的意思是“交通拥堵、排长队和等待假期开始这些情况有什么共同点 ”,设空处内容是谜底,并且该空位于第一段,应起到引入主题、总领全文的作用。结合选项可知,G项“它们都是我们需要多点耐心的情况”既能概括谜语中提到的三种情况,又能引入主题。故选G。
2.E 该空位于小标题“Practice gratitude”下面。前一句说明了感激的好处,但并没有将感激与耐心相结合。后一句说明了表达感激可以培养自制力。由此可以推断,设空处应该说明感激与耐心的关系。分析选项可知,只有E项阐述了感激与耐心的关系,其中的“It”指“thankfulness”,并且also起到承接上文的作用。故选E。
3.B 前一句指出养成等待这一习惯的唯一方法就是去训练,后一句用具体的例子“推迟到周末看最喜欢的节目,吃蛋糕前多等十分钟”说明应如何训练。由此可知,设空处应该阐述如何训练,并与下文所举的例子相呼应。B项就是训练指导,且“small tasks”与后文举的例子相呼应。故选B。
4.C 设空处是本段小标题。根据前面两个小标题的特点可知,设空处应该用祈使句,符合其特点的是A、B、C三个选项,B项已排除;结合本段中的“being comfortable is the only...experience something outside of our comfort zone”可推知,C项“接受不适”符合语境。故选C。
5.F 后一句提到“然后你就会逐渐变得更有耐心”,从“then”可以看出此句与前一句为顺承关系,由此推知,设空处应该是介绍怎么处理“不舒适”的情况,作者劝告读者怎么去做,所以F项“这仅仅是不舒适,而不是无法忍受”符合题意。由本段中的关键词“comfortable”“tolerate”也可以推知设空处作者给的劝告与此相关。故选F。

长难句
原句 So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances.
分析 本句为并列复合句,and连接两个并列分句。在第一个分句中,that引导同位语从句,动名词短语“being comfortable”作主语,“we will tolerate”是一个省略关系代词that的定语从句,修饰先行词the only state;在第二个分句中,when引导时间状语从句。
译文 我们中的许多人认为,舒适是我们唯一能容忍的状态,当我们经历舒适区之外的事情时,我们会对环境失去耐心。
