I was quickly labeled a “brain.” I did so well that by the end of senior year I had perfect grades and enough college credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework.‎ But in early June of senior year, the principal called me into office. He asked me to give a ‎ speech at graduation. I gaped at him, my heart thumping. This was the reward for my hard work? I mumbled something and fled the office, blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have broken up my perfect record.‎ I finally agreed to a compromise. I would share the honor with five other students. I agreed to introduce my friend Judy, who would then give her own, full-length speech.‎ Graduation day soon arrived. I’d been practicing my speech for days, and I had it memorized. The first half hour of the ceremony passed in a blur, and then my moment came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the podium without falling down. I faced my classmates. My voice trembled a little, but mostly it was clear and strong. But within seconds, I was done and heading back to my seat. I accomplished something I’d never dreamed of—I spoke in front of hundreds of people.‎ Although I didn’t realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to participate in class at college, to give verbal reports, and to eventually break free of my shyness. I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation-or ever. But I’m glad I did. I no longer hesitate when I’m faced with the prospect of doing something I dread. I know it may very well turn out to be one of my shining moments.‎ ‎25. Why was the writer called a “brain”?‎ ‎ A. She was a bookworm all the time. B. She was the head of her small group.‎ ‎ C.

But think about the discouraging task millions of educators face each day as they try to shape a group of often bad-tempered, wild kids into intelligent, well-rounded individuals. That surely has to be the toughest job in the world, especially given that there is no promotion or bonus awaiting them even if they are wildly successful!‎ What if these all-important individuals that we often take for granted disappear from our lives? That was what Project Ed and Participant Media's Teach campaign asked filmmakers of all ages to imagine in their recently-held competition. Entitled “A World Without Teachers”, its purpose was to inspire more young people to become teachers. However, the 62 amazing video submissions also serve as a reminder of how horrible things would be if we didn't have these selfless individuals guiding us through life. What was interesting is that even the youngest participants did not appear to be happy at the idea of not having anybody telling them what to do.‎ High-school student Savannah Wakefield reflected if art as we know it today would have been different without teachers. Would Monet have discovered his talent for impressionism? Los Angeles-based Miles Horst, who won the 1000 USD prize for the best adult submission imagines a world where teachers are replaced by a “brain box” in his fun lively entry.‎ Youth category winner Marina Barham’s video represents a fact we all know but often forget. Teachers don't just teach, they inspire-something that no electronic device, no matter how smart, can do! So the next time you think your teacher is being “mean” for trying to channel you in the right direction, imagine a life without him/her. We have a feeling it will not appear as rosy!‎ ‎29. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. The significance of teachers. ‎ B. The campaign to promote teachers’ status.‎ C. A survey of people's views about teachers. ‎ D. A competition to win the prize for the best teacher.‎ ‎30. What can we learn that from the passage?‎ A. Teaching naughty kids is a very discouraging task.‎ B. Being a teacher is one of the most challenging jobs in the world.‎ C. A successful teacher has the greatest chance to be promoted.‎ D. Teachers have little influence on kids' individual development.‎ ‎31. What is the purpose of the project “A World Without Teachers”?‎ A. To attract kids to submit more videos of their teachers. ‎ B. To encourage more people to go into teaching career.‎ C. To expect teachers to devote themselves to their jobs. ‎ D. To remind students to appreciate teachers' hard work.‎ ‎32. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggest?‎ A. Teaching is quite different from other jobs. ‎ B. The future of teachers' work appears inspiring.‎ C. A world without teachers will be unimaginable. ‎ D. Many people attach more importance to teaching.‎ D A typical school day in the UK starts around 8:30 am. This is often even earlier elsewhere in the world, with students sitting down to their first lesson at 7:30 am in the US. The average teenager ideally needs to nine hours’ sleep each night, but in reality a lot of teenagers struggle to get this much. A lot of the problems arise because our sleep patterns are not fixed, and they change as we grow.‎ So a later school start time could help to solve this problem, by ensuring teenagers to get their eight plus hours of sleep and react properly to their body’s natural rhythms. There has been a general shift over the past 25 years to shorten the school day. This is not at the cost of teaching time (which has remained constant) but at the cost of natural breaks, which has led to reduced lunch time and lesson breaks.‎ Later start times could help teens’ grades and health. This is mainly because it makes the management of children easier. Supervising (监管) hundreds of children “playing” requires effective staffing. And there is always the fear that behaviour worsens during breaks. So the theory goes that having them in class and strictly supervised must be better.‎ But this means that students barely have enough time to absorb what they were doing in maths before suddenly they are thrust into ancient history. And teaching staff also transit from one class to ‎ another, with hardly a rest or time to refocus.‎ Clearly rethinking the school day could benefit everyone involved. Anyway, it could also lead to better achievement in teenagers and less of a struggle for parents in the mornings For teachers, it could also mean a less stressful day all around- and what could be better than that?【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ ‎33. How do schools often shorten the school day?‎ A. They increase more holidays.‎ B. They reduce the teaching time.‎ C. They properly adjust children’ natural rhythms.‎ D. They reduce children’s lunch time and lesson breaks.‎ ‎34. What’s the purpose of the children’ short lesson breaks according to the text?‎ A. To reduce children’s excitement. B. To make children quickly take in what they learned.‎ C. To supervise children more easily. D. To make children behave better in class.‎ ‎35. What can we learn about later school start time from the text?‎ A. It will add to the teachers’ pressure. B. It has always been there for 25 years.‎ C. It benefits the students only. D. Parents may support it.‎ ‎36. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. The benefits of a less stressful day B. How to solve teenagers’ sleep problem C. The benefits of later school start time D. The reasons why teenagers sleep differently ‎ ‎ E The story of Sir Nicholas Winton is the one that you would imagine could only happen on the silver screen. Sir Nicholas Winton was a British man who went to heroic efforts, potentially putting himself at risk, during World War II. Sir Winton was responsible for ensuring the safety of six hundred and sixty-nine Jewish children by aiding their escape from countries occupied by Nazis. Finally, the Jewish children were brought to England where he worked to make sure families in his native country would help the kids by taking them into their homes.‎ Recently, this unbelievable story has again been making the rounds on the Internet, particularly after a rerun of the BBC show called “That’s Life”, which featured Sir Winton. People around the world were moved at the details of the story, with saying it to be the best story they’ve ever seen.‎ Sir Winton kept his entire plan completely secret, even his wife had no idea about his planning until fifty years later. After the war, years passed and many people remained in the dark about Sir Winton’s extraordinary achievement. Some fifty years later, his wife Greta was searching in their house and discovered a Winton’s notebook which documented the names of all the children. She worked with BBC and they produced a TV episode (插曲) of their program “That’s Life” that served as an honor for Sir Winton’s work.【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ In 2003, Sir Winton was knighted by the Queen of England for his work. He also was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. He also had a small planet named after him by Czech astronomers. Sir Winton died peacefully in his sleep at the old age of one hundred and six, in 2015. Leaders around the world paid tribute (悼念). Israel’s ambassador to the United Kingdom, Daniel Taub, said, “He was a hero of our time, having saved 669 Jewish children from Nazis.
