We kids had made our selections in the same sequence (顺序) as our birth order first come, first served, you might say starting with me (the oldest) and followed by my sister, Gloria, and by my brothers, Bret and Terry.I had picked the chair directly across from Dad. Everybody knew it as “Marcias Chair”. Sometimes, however, I would give up my chair for guests and it would become known by another name: the Crying Chair. Family, friends, and neighbors would sit in that chair when they needed a good cry, or something to share their burden with.Mom said it was only natural for “Marcias Chair” to become the official “Crying Chair”, since I was the most tenderhearted crier in the family. I put the Crying Chair to good use throughout my life. Yet I was not an unhappy child. In fact, quite the opposite: I was very happy. The Crying Chair gave me a place to park my emotional baggage so I could get on with my life.The Crying Chair worked so well throughout the years, that I decided to borrow the idea for my kindergarten school (school for very young children). The students had almost a reverence (deep respect) for it. When one boy, who cried uncontrollably, sat in the Crying Chair he would bury his little head in his hands and sob (draw in breath noisily while crying). My heart ached for him, but I felt really happy as I watched other students walk over to the Crying Chair and give the boy a pat on the back.One particular crying day, when I felt overwhelmed (defeated) with the duties of teaching, I announced to the class that I needed to spend some time in the Crying Chair. I laid my head in my hands and cried. As the tears flowed down my cheeks, I felt the touch of many tiny hands as my students walked by and gently patted me on the back.The teacher learned compassion (pity for the sufferings) from her students. The students learned a teacher hurts just like they hurt, and cries just like they cry. Both learned to love each other.21. The underlined phrase “spoken for” could be replaced by _. A. served B. taken C. needed D. limited22. Marcias chair became the crying chair naturally because _.A. she would share feelings with others on her chairB. she was willing to give her chair up to guests and friendsC. she was the first child in the family to use the chairD. she was more soft-hearted than anyone else in the family23. Which of the following is TRUE of the Crying Chair in the kindergarten?A. No one dared to use it because they respected it.B. Students were supposed to pat the back of whoever sat in it.C. It was where students could let out their pain without loss of respect.D. Teachers seldom used it because if students had seen them in the chair they would have lost respect for them.24. From the text, we can conclude that _.A. Marcia was often upset and needed to use the Crying ChairB. Marcia was made fun of as the person in the family who cried the mostC. the Crying Chair worked wonders for the students and the teacherD. Marcia chose to sit in the Crying chair, because she wanted to teach students a lesson about being hurtZ-x-x-k.Com B“When I was young, my father taught me how to read the weather. The same methods dont work today. The climate has changed and I cant teach my son anymore,” an old Inuit lady told us.The Inuit people know the Arctic best. This hostile (terrible) environment is as home to them as the city is to me. They were raised to live in harmony (matching) with nature and to meet the challenges of survival in an extreme climate, but this very environment is changing rapidly, culturally as much as naturally. The Inuit youngsters grow up nowadays completely differently to the way the elders did.The Inuit lady we met has lived here for 35 years and a lot has changed since her arrival. The environment is becoming more and more unstable (not firm) and the weather has become unpredictable, which makes hunting more and more difficult. Eating, living and hunting habits have all been transformed (changed) since the introduction of snow mobiles and junk food. These destroyed the balance of their traditional food. In fact, a fist-sized piece of beluga (白鲸) meat contains as much Vitamin C as five oranges. Thats why the Inuits can get all the physical nutrition their bodies need all year round without vegetables or fruits. It was only a short time ago that she had her first apple!We have a set of supplies specially designed to give our bodies the fuel they need for long days of skiing. Every gram of food that we take has an important function (role in our body). Each day we consume around 6,000 calories, of which 2,000 calories are burnt during sleeping. The average person in everyday life needs around 1800 calories a day. Its definitely (surely) not easy to survive in the Arctic.Tomorrow well hopefully head off to the Arctic Ocean, if the weather up north allows.25. Why didnt the Inuit lady teach her son how to read weather?A. The weather there is too extreme to read.B. Her son is not willing to learn traditional methods.C. The climate patterns are too different from what they used to be.D. They are moving to big cities where its impossible to read weather.26. The underlined word “unpredictable” in Paragraph 3 probably means _. A. unpleasant B. extremeC. changeable D. tough27. All the following habits of the Inuits have been transformed EXCEPT _.A. eating B. huntingC. living D. sleeping28. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The environment in the Arctic is changing more naturally than culturally.B. A fist-sized piece of beluga meat contains as much protein as 5 oranges.C. Generally, an average person burns 2,000 calories during sleeping.D. People consume more calories than average in the Arctic. CAs the e-mail hits 40, is a midlife crisis (危机) on the cards?A few weeks ago, electronic mail, or e-mail, hit the respectable age of 40. When Ray Tomlinson, a young computer engineer, sent the first e-mail in 1971, he could only have guessed at how e-mail would have an effect on the way we communicate both in business and personal life.Z-X-X-KE-mail has transformed the way people shop, bank, conduct business, and communicate with family members. Now as an essential tool for about one billion mobile workers across the globe, e-mail continues to dominate (control) the way in which we communicate.Four decades since the first message, e-mail seems to be going strong. But is e-mail about to hit a midlife crisis? With web workers now using more software and social business tools to communicate and share information, are we going to see e-mails rule come to an end?E-mail might be a great communication tool, but it doesnt seem to be a tool for working with others. Anyone who has tried to bring together feedback (return of the information) from many colleagues on a document over e-mail knows how painful the process can be. No one seems to remember which version the team is working on and there is always that one person who sends over some “final amendments(changes slightly)” overnight. Hours can be wasted waiting for e-mails to go back and forth, searching through inboxes for missing documents.Therefore, it is little wonder that web workers across the globe are turning to the likes of Dropbox, Evernote or Huddle for storing and sharing files. The demand for simplicity(简洁) in the workplace has increased.Despite all those challenges, however, removing e-mail from the workplace completely will require more than just introducing easy-to-use tools in the office. Its so much a part of our daily working lives and moving to other tools will require a culture change. While e-mail may not dominate workplace communication for another Z-X-X-K40 years, theres life in it yet!29. What is the main challenge to e-mail in the workplace?A. It is not a widely accepted communication tool.B. More and more easy-to-use tools are being brought in.C. It is inconvenient for sharing files and documents.D. It has reached its midlife crisis.30. Which of the following statements about e-mail is TRUE?A. Ray Tomlinson was sure that it would have great impact on communication.B. Sometimes its a waste of time to wait for e-mails to go back and forth.C. It is more influential in peoples personal lives than in business.D. It will continue to dominate communication for another 40 years.31. What is the main point of this article?A. E-mail could be replaced by other tools.B. The situation of e-mail at the present time and the challenges it faces.C. Why e-mail is so popular.D. The side effects of new technology.
