each day as they try to shape a groupof often bad-tempered,wild kids into intelligent,well-rounded individuals.That surely has to be the toughest job in theworld,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 whatProject Ed and Participant Medias Teach campaign asked filmmakers of all ages to imagine in their recently-heldcompetition.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 vve didnt havethese selfless individuals guiding us through life.What was interesting is that even the youngest participants did notappear to be happy at the idea of not having anybody telling them what to do.High-school student Savannah Wakef ield reflected if art as we know it today would have been different withoutteachers.Would Monet have discovered his talent for impressionism?Los Angeles-based Miles Horst,who won the 1000USD prize for the best adult submission imagines a world where teachers are replaced by a“brain box”in his fun livelyentry.Youth category winner Marina Barhams video represents a fact we all know but often forget.Teachers dont justteach,they inspire-something that no electronic device,no matter how smart,can do!So the next time you think yourteacher is being“mean for trying to channel you in the right direction,imagine a life without

Calais,on our way to the UK,and it is pouring with rain.As if gods want toprepare us for the UK at all costs.As if we don*t know what rain is.Our ferry to the green isles will leave tomorrow at10.30 and despite the rain,I am really looking forward to it.It has taken us a while to get here,as we already left El Chorro on 4 April.After rushing through Spain in twodays,however,we came to an inevitable slow-down when we entered France.Inevitable,as France has simply too muchto offer for us.So as soon as we crossed the Pyrenees,our driving sequence became something like driving a fewkilometres,visiting a castle,driving a few kilometres,taking pictures of a nice church,driving a few kilometres,having aquick peek at a fleas market,driving a few kilometres,visiting a museum etc.When we entered Brittany the realsightseeing started,in Vannes,in Lorient,in Brest and then on to Normandy:Le Mont St Michel,Bayeux and finally,finally the D-Day beaches.I always wanted to visit these,for obvious reasons I would say,but my father,realistic as hewas,calculated the chances that it would rain a considerable amount of days of a three-week holiday and always decidedagainst it.But a few days ago I finally stepped onto Gold Beach(where the Brits landed)and I was greeted by theNorman sun.A beautiful day.1、It was when the writer was on his way to the UK.A.pouring B.foggyC.snowy D.sunny2、According to the passage,the Pyrenees must be a place in.A.Spain B.FranceC.Netherland D.Normandy3、Which of the following statement is NOT true?A.They spent 2 days in Spain traveling.B.The writer thought France has a lot of places to visit.C.The writer thought the real sightseeing was in El Chorro,and in Brest.D.The writers father was a realistic person.4、The passage probably comes f rom.A.a travel journal B.a science fictionC.a news report D.a film review24.(8 分)Experts like to say the best form of exercise is whatever kind youll actually do.But that may notalways be the case;new research finds that people who combine exercise with their social lives may be at an advantageover solitary(独自)exercisers.Tennis,badminton and soccer are all better for longevity(长寿)than cycling,swimming,jogging or gym exercise,according to the research.The study was based on data from about 8,500 adults who were part of the Copenhagen City Heart Study.Theycompleted a health and lifestyle questionnaire,which included questions about type and frequency of physical activity,and were monitored by the researchers for around 25 years,a period during which about 4,500 of the subjects died.Tennis came out on top in the research.Compared with people sitting all day,those who reported playing tennis astheir main form of exercise could expect to add 9.7 years to their life time,followed by badminton(6.2 years),soccer(4.7years),cycling(3.7 years),swimming(3.4 years),jogging(3.2 years)and health-club activities(1.5 years).Tennis likely took the top spot because its very interactive,”says study co-author Dr.James O9Keefe,a physicianat Saint Lukes Mid America Heart Institute.wAt every point youre talking.Ifs just a very natural way to emotionallybond with people,besides getting your exercise?9 But he adds that the study may not have been able to fully account forthe fact that wealthier,better-educated people-who tend to be healthier to begin withmay be more likely to playtennis.Activities like running and weight lifting still extend your life and offer plenty of other health benefits.But for thebest possible benefits,OKeefe says gym-goers may want to consider combining those workouts with activities thatfoster social connection.O9Keefe,whose exercise typically includes running and weight lifting,says hes even changed his own behaviorbecause of the study:he and his family have taken up badminton.“You cant play badminton without feeling like a kid again J he says.Ifs just pure fun.”1、Which of the following is best for living a long life?A.Cycling.B.Badminton.C.Swimming.D.Gym exercise.2、How many people were still living at the end of the research?A.About 8,500.B.About 4,500.C.About 4000.D.About 2500.3、What matters most to the result of the research?A.Family life.B.Social connections.C.Frequency of exercise.D.Wealth and education.4、What does O9Keefe do after the finding?A.He puts the theory into practice.B.He plays badminton just for fun.C.He feels like playing badminton with kids.D.He takes more exercise than before.25.(10 分)The age of adulthood is by definition arbitrary.If everyone matured at the same,fixed rate,itwouldiTt be a human process.Indeed,maturation happens at varying speeds across different categories within the sameindividual,so Id say I was easily old enough to vote at 16,but nobody should have given me a credit card until I was 32,and Ive got the county court judgment to prove it.However,we broadly agree that theres a difference between a child and an adult,even if we might argue about thetransition point.So the political theorist David Runcimans view that six-year-olds should be allowed to vote goesagainst any standard argument about the age of civic responsibility.Nobody would say that a six-year-old could be heldcriminally responsible,could be sent to war,could be capable of consent,could be given responsibility for anything.Soallowing them the votealong with,unavoidably,seven-year-olds who are even sillier,if anythingis quite an amusingproposal.Runcimans argument is that this is the only way to rebalance political life,which is currently twisted in favor ofthe old,who dont(he added)ever need to demonstrate mental capacity,even long after theyve lost it.The first part of his case is self-evident:pensions are protected while childrens centers are closed,concepts such assovereignty(最高权威)are prioritized over the far more urgent business of the future:climate change.Nostalgia。怀念)for a past the young wouldnt even recognize plays a central role,which is completely unfair.Most of the arguments against giving six-year-olds a vote are that children would end up voting for somethingdamaging and chaotic,if someone made unrealistic promises to them,which could never be realized.Well,its notchildrens fault.Having said that,children do tend towards the progressive,having a natural sense of justice(which kicks in at theage of six months,psychologists have shown,by creating scenes of great unfairness to babies,and making them cry)andan underdeveloped sense of self-interest.My kid,when he was six,made quite a forceful case against private property,on the basis that,since everybody needed a house,they shouldnt cost money,because nobody would want anyone elsenot to have one.Also,food should be free.It was a kind of pre-Marx communism,where you limit the coverage of themarket to only those things that you wouldnt mind someone else not having.On that particular day,when we were registered as voters,my kid was quite far to the left of me,but in the normalrun of things,were united,which brings us to the point of the pr
