Warren, Ohio lies just thirteen miles north of Youngstown, the former center of steel production, and now one of （he neediest cities in the country. Both cities, populations and its finance have been on the decline each year, with unemployment rates surpassing both the state and national average.But it wasn't always this way. Thirty years ago, when Camelli was a student at Howland High School, the school where she now teaches Advanced Placement Psychology, ltThe poorness level was around 6% J she says. Today, it is closer to 40%.This financial condition influences everything from the way students learn, to their ability to deal with social and emotional issues. Knowing this, Camelli created Paw Pantry. Whether it's fbr food, clothes, school supplies or personal hygiene （ 口生）products ,students and their parents can go on the district's website and fill out a request form for Paw Pantry products. They can choose to pick their items up-or have them deliveredat school.Camelli mentioned Paw Pantry when she attended her high school activity in 2017. It made her former classmates aware of how their hometown has changed over the years. uSoon, money started pouring in from all over the country, all over the world,“ she says.In just a year and a half since the Paw Panlry began, Camelli has received plenty of non-perishable （不易变质的）food, clothing, lunch boxes, backpacks, school supplies-even home goods, including a refrigerator, a washer and dryer, and a stove.Camelli actively shows her students the power of connection. 'Tm definitely kinder because of Ms. Camelli. Ms. Camelli is a mother, but she's also a mother figure fbr all of us”. Blake says "Ms. Camelli, you will never understand how happy this act of your caring had made me,“ she added.Camelli is a community activist, a mental heath supporter, and by many people's standards, she's most certainly a hero, but she doesn't see herself that way.

However, a new study suggests that despite always getting criticized, the common disciplinary 侈己律的）strategy isn?t linked to harmful effects on children.Researchers compared emotional and behavioral health between kids whose parents reported using time-outs and those who didn't over a roughly eight-year period. The result: no difference. There was no association between reported use of time-outs and negative symptoms in later childhood, including anxiety, depression, internalizing or externalizing problems, aggression, rule-breaking behavior, or self-control, according to the findings in Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics （儿科学）.“Parents arc constantly questioning whether they arc doing the right thing fbr their children. Unfortunately the first place many parents go for advice is the Internet - not a medical provider. There is a lot of conOicting information on the Web that isn't accurate,“ says lead author Rachel Knight, PhD, pediatric psychologist at University of Michigan C. S. Mott Children's Hospital. t4In fact, they may not be aware that time-out is one of the child discipline strategies currently recommended by American Academy of Pcdiatrics.Further studies arc needed to continue evaluating specific claims made against time-outs and both their short-term and long-term effects across different populations and ages. Experts also need to find more effective ways to communicate evidence-based information to parents.“As we further our understanding about how different parenting strategies affect children, we need to present findings in an easily digestible and accessible way for the public,“ she also says, “Our goal is to clear up misconceptions and promote the use of the highly effective, evidence-based strategics that will best guide parents and families?*What do people generally think of a time-out?A. It has negative effects on children.B. It is an ineffective way of punishment.C. It is a method to assess children's misbehavior.D. It has nothing to do with harmful effects on children.8. What can be inferred from Knight's words in the third paragraph?A. Most young parents lack medical knowledge.B. Some information on the Internet needs regulating.C. She is concerned about the overuse of time-outs.D. The more time-outs arc used, the better children behave.9. What is the target of Knight,s further research?A. To recommend some effective strategies co parents.B. To remove people's misunderstanding about time-outs.C. lb appeal to government to regulate information on the Net.D. lb warn parents of getting evidence-based information from experts.10. What's the best title fbr the text?A. How Parents Use Time-out CorrectlyTime-outs Bad fbr Children's Behavioral HealthB. Some Highly Effective Strategies to Guide ParentsTime-outs Not Associated with Negative Effects on ChildrenYou probably don'I think of scientific or medical instruments as the kind of instruments that actually make music. But now researchers have built a scientific instrument specifically designed to detect counterfeit （伪造的）medications through sound.The World Health Organization estimates about 10 percent of the medications in low and middle-income countries are fakes. Sometimes, dangerous ones. So the idea here is to fill the tube with a sample that's known to be safe. Then compare it to a bottle you're not so sure about.“If you get the same pitch （音高）out of those two samples, it's very good evidence that they're probably the same material, and the suspect substance is a safe drug to take. But if you get a different pitch out of the two samples, that's absolute proof that those two samples are chemically different. And that shows you there's something wrong with the sample you were given and you probably shouldn't take it.”The instrument is designed to test only liquid samples for now. And while the human car is sensitive enough to hear the difference between samples of air and water, the difference between a real and a counterfeit drug might be imperceptible to our ears. So Grover built a free website where users can upload recordings of the instrument, from their smartphone or computer, and analyze the hertz. Then repeat it with the suspect sample.in the hope of inspiring people around the world to build these things themselves. UI can literally make one of these out of junk in your garage in about five minutes probably. The hardest thing to come by is tubing. We've made them out of bent copper tubing like you get out of a radiator. Just junk, lying around. It's remarkable how easy they are to make. My dream would be to have the instructions for making them and using them shared as widely as possible.''It is, admittedly, a pretty convincing pitch.11. What's the passage mainly about?A. A scientific instrument.B. A pretty convincing tube.C. A suspect sample.D. A dangerous instrument.12. What's the function of the instrument according to the passage?A. To give the buyer more drugs as a gift. B. To make the wonderful music.C. lb carry the liquid.D. To test fake medications through sound.13. Where can you get the material to build this kind of scientific instrument?A.The junk in the garage.B.The junk in the drugstore.C.The junk in the supermarket.D.The junk in the factory.14. What can we learn about the instrument from the passage?A.Everyone can make it easily.B.It can play the music you like.C.There is a long way to go.D.It is widely used （o test medicine.二、七选五You're suffering from a bad case of burnout, especially after you do the same work too many years.
