Coolidge Auditorium, ground floor, Thomas Jefferson BuildingBOne day, I was teaching my daughter how to paint I saw that a lot of her energy went into dipping(蘸)her brush into the paint, and then into a bowl of water. But then most of the paint that was on the brush would just disappear in the water. As an impatient mother, I was thinking, “ I am trying to teach you how to paint on paper and what are you doing? This is not what you are supposed to do. You have to do this way.”But she is three years old so she is probably not going to bother (操心)doing it the right way. She had so much fun dipping the brush in the paint and in the water bowl. Pretty much within an hour, most of the paint was all over the room and I just sat there with my hands on my head thinking, “Oh my god, this girl is hopeless.” Soon after, however, she shouted, “Mama, when I mix pink and blue, it turns purple!”I was surprised. While I was thinking that she was wasting perfectly good paint and paper, she actually learned something. What would have been a very theoretical(理论的)experiment turned into a very practical experiment.I am a designer and work with software(软件)like Photoshop and IIIustrator . When my daughter sees me work on the computer, she is always very curious and she wants to work with me on the same thing that I do. She starts to mess with buttons, and in that process, sometimes lands up teaching me things! There will be many times when she will find something new. I will ask her how, and she will tell me, “I pressed this, and I pressed this, and then this happened.”One of the things I realized from this is that everyone has a different way of learning things. When I was growing up, I related to literature very well, so everything that was turned into a story became my way of learning and understanding different concepts (概念). Some kids understand through art, some understand through math and games, and its the job of a parent or a teacher to watch and discover how children learn and try their best to make these experiences educational.24. How did the writer feel at the beginning? A. Upset and unsatisfied B. Relaxed and patient C. Energetic and supportive D. Interesed curious25. In Paragraph 3, the author was surprised because her daughter_. A. got a new color by mixing pink and blue B. learned to paint by herself C. wasted so much paint D. learned something she hadnt expected26. With Paragraph 4, the author aims to show that_. A. kids enjoy acting as teachers to adults B. adults usually dont respect kids enough C. her daughter learns through experimenting D. kids love to copy what adults do27. To help children learn more from their experience, the writer suggests parents and teachers_ A. join with their children to play B. get their children to read stories C. learn from their children in daily life D. find on the ways their children learnCFrench writher Frantz Fanon once said: “To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.” Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of todays changing world.After a year that was politically unstable, its not hard to understand the fact that peoples political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is “clicktivism”, a compound(合成词)of “click” and “activism.” It refers to “armchair activists(键盘侠)-people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And “otherize” is a verb for “other” that means to alienate(使疏远)people who are different from ourselveswhether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.“We had all the words around Brexit(脱欧)in the last update and we are now starting to see all the words around Trump coming into the dictionary,” Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, told The Guardian.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, “fitspiration” a compound of “fit” and “inspiration”refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase “climate refugee” someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate changereflects peoples concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions, “People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,” he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream(主流的)dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words. Stevensons suggestion is that you should not only make sure that they are expressive(有表现力的)and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.28. What is the article mainly about? A. Some new words that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary B. The application of new words and phrases C. How a language mirrors the changing world D. The impact of social media on our language29. With the mention of Brexit and Trump, the author intends to_. A. inform the reader of the origin of the word “clicktivism” B. show the influences of current affairs on the English language C. highlight two major political events that changed the world D explain what kind of new words can make it into a dictionary30. The underlined word “coin” in the second-to-last paragraph probably means_. A. use B. record C. change D. create31. How is the article mainly written?A. By giving examples B. By making comparisons C. By following a timeline D. By presenting research findings.D Students who applied(申请)for Early Action or Early Decision with overseas colleges should now have a reply. Those who applied through an Early program received one of three possible responses: Accepted, Rejected(拒绝)or Deferred(延迟). Its easy to understand the first two, but many students and parents are confused by a deferral. Common questions are: “What does it mean?” and “What should I do?” High school student Emily Castellanos application was deferred by North Carolina State University, but she had already been accepted at UNC Wilmington and Appalachian State, and those were two of her top choices. Her mother, Karen Castellano, said she wasnt really surprised, knowing how competitive (竞争的)N. C. State is.“Emily was somewhat disappointed but took it in her stride,” she said. “The deferral shows her the importance of having an open mind to allow for a variety of(多样的)opportunities.”Jillian Jacobson was deferred by Boston College, her first choice. Being deferred means that colleges want to compare your application with those they receive during the regular decision (录取的)period. So how did Jillian handle the deferral and what are her next steps? “A deferral was painful for me. It wasnt a no, it wasnt a yes-it was a not now,” she said. “At first, I didnt think there was anything I could do,” she added. “But I love Boston College so I decided it was worth pulling out all the stops.”Jillian emailed the admissions representative(招生官)to confirm her continued interest, and she is now writing an additional(额外的)essay about why Boston College is the perfect fit for her. She even plans to visit the college once more in the spring.Jillian said that she was optimistic(乐观的)because “my application will re-enter their regular admission pool to be viewed with a new set of eyes. Applying during Early Action gives your application two opportunities to be reviewed.”32. The main purpose of the article is to _. A. explain what a deferral means and how to deal with it B. inform readers of the advantages of applying for Early Action C. advise students to apply early for their favorite colleges D. share some successful cases in the deferral process33. The underlined phrase “took it in her stride” in Paragraph 4 means _. A. had deep faith in something B. behaved in an anxious manner C. dealt with something unpleasant calmly D. showed no interest toward something34. According to the article, a deferral means that _. A. an applicant has been kicked out of the regular admission pool B. a college is half-way on deciding whether an applicant is qualified C. an applicant has missed the chance to enter his or her dream college D. an applicant has to refuse invitations from other colleges35. After Jillian Jacobson received the deferral notice, she _. A. wrote an email to complain to the admission officers B. visited the campus again to get familiar with the college C. started working on an essay to explain her intention to apply
