A British woman who won a $1 million prize after she was named the World’s Best Teacher will use the cash to bring inspirational figures into UK schools.
Andria Zafirakou,a north London secondary school teacher, said she wanted to bring about a classroom revolution (变革). “We are going to make a change, ”she said.“I’ve started a project to promote the teaching of the arts in our schools.”
The project results from the difficulties many schools have in getting artists of any sort whether an up and coming local musician or a major movie star into schools to work with and inspire children.
Zafirakou began the project at Alperton Community School, her place of work for the past twelve years. “I’ve seen those magic moments when children are talking to someone they are inspired by their eyes are shining and their faces light up,” she said. “We need artists . more than ever in our schools."
Artist Michael Craig Martin said: “Andria’s brilliant project to bring artists from all fields into direct contact with children is particularly welcome at a time when the arts are being downgraded in schools." It was a mistake to see the arts as unnecessary, he added.
Historian Sir Simon Schama is also a supporter of the project. He said that arts education in schools was not just an add on. “It is absolutely necessary. The future depends on creativity and creativity depends on the young. What will remain of us when artificial intelligence takes over will be our creativity, and it is our creative spirit, our visionary sense of freshness,that has been our strength for centuries."
4. What will Zafirakou do with her prize money
A. Make a movie.
B. Build new schools.
C. Run a project.
D. Help local musicians.
5. What does Craig Martin think of the teaching of the arts in UK schools
A. It is particularly difficult.
B. It increases artists’ income.
C. It opens children’s mind.
D. It deserves greater attention.
6. What should be stressed in school education according to Schama
A. Moral principles.
B. Interpersonal skills.
C. Creative abilities.
D. Positive worldviews.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Bring Artists to Schools
B. When Historians Meet Artists
C. Arts Education in Britain
D. The World’s Best Arts Teacher
C
How steady you are on your feet can indicate how likely you are to live a longer, healthy life. The ability to remain upright and steady is something that we take for granted, until something goes wrong.
The balance system is made up of lots of different sensory components, explains Nicola Harris, a health expert. Good balance depends on correct sensory information from your eyes, muscles, tendons (腱), and joints, and the balance organs in the inner ear.
The most obvious benefit of good balance is that it helps prevent falls and therefore injuries, and simply makes daily activities easier and safer to perform. Unless you develop a balance disorder, the first time people become aware of balance issues is when they get older.
Harris says that people with balance problems at her clinic often talk about the loss of the ability to look from side to side as they cross the road because they feel unsteady. “That is fundamentally because the balance system as a whole starts to get worn,” says Harris.
Pilates, dance and tai chi are all good exercises to maintain good balance. “Other things that work your balance slightly differently, but again are really good, are ball games. Anything involving hand eye coordination, such as tennis or table tennis,” says Harris.
However, she warns against just doing strengthening exercises in the gym using machinery: “That’s not going to improve your balance.” Including tree weights and resistance bands into your workout will not only strengthen your bones and muscles, but your balance, too.
8. What does the underlined word “components” in paragraph 2 mean
A. personalities
B. manners
C. parts
D. approaches
9. Which statement is true about a balance disorder
A. It can be easily found in our everyday life.
B. It results in more convenience to daily activities.
C. It leads to people crossing the road more steadily.
D. It is hard to be felt for the young if one doesn’t have any symptom.
10. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A. There is more than one exercise to improve one’s balance.
B. Any kind of exercise will do good to maintaining one’s good balance.
C. Doing strengthening exercises is the best way to improve one’s balance.
D. As for improving one’s balance, Harris offers no recommendation.
11. Which column is the passage probably taken from
A. Technology.
B. Health.
C. Fiction.
D. Entertainment.
D
When was the last time you talked proudly about being sensitive Most likely, the answer is never. There are plenty of characters we take pride in, but being “sensitive” is usually considered as a weakness. The message sensitive people get isn’t to celebrate who they are. It’s that they should “overcome” their sensitivity.
However, sensitivity is largely genetic (遗传的), and not something you can turn off. It is a character connected to talent and something we should embrace. In fact, according to thirty years of research, it’s not only a healthy character, but it also serves as a big advantage.
As a personality character, being sensitive means you take in more information from your environment, and you do more with it. Sensitive people process information more deeply than others do. This changes the way you see the world. You probably notice what others miss, think, and feel deeply.
The most well known sensitive gift is creativity. Sensitive people tend to be highly creative, and many — perhaps most — artists, musicians, and actors are themselves sensitive people.
But creativity doesn’t end with the arts. The same ability changes into innovation. Many of our greatest thinkers and scientists throughout history have been sensitive people, like Charles Darwin. Sensitive people have this ability to innovate because they tend to be deep thinkers who spend more time and energy turning problems over in their heads — and end up seeing more possibilities and solutions.
Sensitive people do pay a price for these gifts, however, by becoming overstimulated. Overstimulation is what happens when there is simply too much information for the brain to deal with. But sensitive people can learn to deal with it. For them, a little bit of quiet alone time goes a long way.
If any of this sounds like you, you might be more sensitive than you realize. If so, you have probably felt the pressure to hide it. But that’s a trap. You can’t make yourself less sensitive than you are and trying to do so only cuts you off from your gifts.
Instead, the single most important step you can take for yourself is what society has told you not to do your whole life: Stop hiding from your sensitivity. Embrace it, and show it to the world.
12. What phenomenon does the author mention in paragraph 1
A. People usually take pride in their being sensitive.
B. Being negative is often looked up to in our daily life.
C. Being sensitive is traditionally regarded as a weakness.
D. Generally speaking, we have few characters that should be praised.
13. Why does the author think of sensitivity as an advantage
A. Because it has nothing to do with talent.
B. Because you can see the world more deeply with it.
C. Because people with it tend to be talented artists.
D. Because it is largely acquired by learning and can easily be changed.
14. Why is Charles Darwin mentioned in the text
A. To show some great scientists in history are sensitive.
B. To explain the most famous sensitive gift is creativity.
C. To prove most artists, musicians and actors are sensitive.
D. To show sensitive people process information more deeply than others do.
15. What is a sensitive person recommended to do
A. Pay for it.
B. Consult doctors.
C. Avoid showing it.
D. Jump at it.

Four Things You Must Know About College Degrees
Are you getting ready to begin college, to head back to school after a few years off, or are you just exploring your options ___16___ Here’s a quick overview of several key facts that will serve you well as you aim for an education certificate.
Online study can ‘save you big bucks’
In modern society, it’s becoming easier to attend school online. If you choose a school’s online program, it’s possible to save as much as 50 percent over in person. ___17___ Be aware that institutions that offer online study sometimes have a more limited range of courses and majors for those e degree programs. Check if your desired subjects are part of the e curriculum.
___18___
Getting your degree and paying for it are two completely different challenges. That’s why it’s essential to get financing arranged before you choose your college or pick your major. If you don’t have the money situation taken care of, schools simply won’t let you begin the coursework. The good news is that you can take out a student loan from a private lender and get the entire payment issue resolved quickly.
Do career research before choosing a major
It’s important to choose a major that has realistic job prospects for graduates. You might love art history or linguistic philosophy. ___19___ Accounting, IT, advertising and engineering are all sensible choices. Ask the school administrators what their most popular majors are, what job placement rates are, and whether they offer internships for seniors in their fields of study.
Concentrate on application essays
When you fill out applications for the schools that interest you, don’t just rush through the paperwork. Some of it is merely standard, fill in the blank information. ___20___ You’ll need to be careful when filling out these kinds of items as admissions offices tend to focus on your essay, scores on standardized tests, grades, and job history.
A. Arrange financing first
B. Work while earning a degree
C. Therefore, spend at least one hour on each essay.
D. But most applications usually contain at least one essay type question.
E. If so, it’s important to know a few of the basic facts about modern day degrees.
F. So, unless you have some special reason for attending in person, weigh all your choices.
G. However, unless you aim to restrict your career to teaching, check out more practical majors.

English Literature Reading Class Opens a New World
Our school has opened a weekly English literature reading class, whose goal is to broaden our horizons and improve our English. In class, we read classic English works and share our thoughts. Teachers guide us to discuss in groups instead of giving lectures all the time.
I benefit a lot from it. Not only have I improved my reading skills, but I also get to feel the charm of foreign literature. It really opens a new world for me.
