The “Daily Mi

11、rror “ and the “Daily express” both sell about four million copies everyday. British families generally buy a newspaper every morning and two or three on Sundays.Besides the national papers, there is, however, another branch of the British press which sells almost as many copies. Local newspapers ha

12、ve a weekly circulation of 13 million. Almost every town and county area has one. Nearly all of them hold their own financially (財(cái)政) and many of them are very profitable (賺錢的).These papers are written almost entirely for readers interested in local eventsbirths, weddings, deaths, council (地方會(huì)議) meet

13、ings and sports. Editors prefer to rely on people who know the district well. A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighborhood and it does not get out to date as quickly as national news.The editors must never forget that the success of any newspaper depends

14、 on advertising (廣告). He is usually anxious to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason.

18、r-5s risk causing damage to the childrens long-term development, a leading education expert said.Lilian Katz, Professor of Education at the University of Illinois, told that four-year-olds engaged in reading and writing went on to perform worse academically than those, engaged in imaginative learnin

19、g. They scored higher in tests at the age of 5, but children whose first year at school was stimulating (使人興奮的) outstripped them years later.The findings suggest that the governments structured approach to early-years learning could be storing up problems for children. They also raise serious questi

20、ons about the plan for all children to be able to read by the age of 6.In many countries formal teaching does not start until children are 6 or 7 and have improved their social and manual skills. Children start learning to read and write at 6 in the United States,France and Germany,and at 7 in Finla

21、nd and Sweden.Professor Katz said that in many schools the courses were “boring children to tears”. Much academic teaching required I children to learn by memorizing pieces of information out of context,she said. Teaching in reception class should instead allow children to develop their intellect by

22、 exploring their environments and asking questions.Research suggests the benefits of formal academic instruction for four and five-year-olds seem to be promising when they are tested early, but considerably less so in the long term. When these children are followed over a period of three or more yea

23、rs, those who had early experience in more intellectually engaging curricula were more likely to do well in school than their peers, who had received early academic instruction.

29、hey awaited the attack. Cars were abandoned on highways and people who were outside at the time hid in the basements of neighbours as others prepared to flee.Stacey Bow, 56, of Honolulu was awakened to the emergency alert(警報(bào)) on her smart phone and woke up her 16- year- old daughter, who became hyst

30、erical, crying. Cherese Carlson, said the moments following the alert were filled with fear. “I had no friends here to turn to for help,”she said. “There was nothing I could do but sit in my car worried that it was the end of my life.”O(jiān)thers thought that it was a hoax or a false alarm, since the sir

31、ens(報(bào)警汽笛) did not ring out. “I thought to myself, it must be someones last day at work or someone got extremely upset at a superior and basically did this as a joke,” said Brian Naeole, who was visiting Honolulu from Molokai, adding that he didnt hear sirens and neither TV nor radio stations issued

32、alerts.It turned out that the incident was caused by a worker who pressed the wrong button. A revised alert informing people of the “false alarm” did not reach mobile phones until about 40 minutes after the first warning was sent. Hawaiis Emergency Management Agency administrator Vern Miyagi said, “

33、there was no automated way to send a false alarm cancellation. We had to initiate a manual process. And that was why it took a while to inform everyone”.

As soon as I walked in the front door, I noticed a flashing light on our answe

36、ring machine. I pressed the button. “Hi, Dave and Sharon. You dont know me. My name is Janet. I have your camera.”What? I rummaged(仔細(xì)搜尋) through my bagsure enough, my camera was nowhere to be found. How did this stranger have it? How did she know it was mine?The photos on this camera were priceless.

37、 Almost all from our recent vacation to Wyoming to visit our youngest son and his wife were on it. Our oldest son joined us and it was the first time wed all been together in over a year. Id cleared the memory card beforehandjust some old photos that Id already downloadedso I would have plenty of ro

38、om to capture every precious moment.Dave and I had one day after our trip to Wyoming before we had to return to work, so we mapped out a bike ride in Wellington. Upon our arrival, I took a few photos while Dave took our bikes out of our car. Now I realized that was the last time Id seen my camera.I

39、hadnt downloaded our Wyoming pictures. They could have been lost forever. There was no name or address on the camera. Who was this Janet? Some detective?I called her back. “How did you find it?” I asked. “How did you find me?”“I recognized your church in a few photos,” she said. “Another photo had a

40、 young man wearing a name badge(姓名牌). I phoned the church secretary to connect the dots.” Janet described old photos I thought Id deleted. But how could she have recognized our church?“Where are you?” I asked. “Where can I meet you to get the camera?”I didnt have to travel far. Janet lived just fift

Beside him is a desperate mother yelling at the top of her lungs. Raising a well-behav

44、ed kid is really a head-scratching thing.If you took all the parenting styles around the world and ranked them by their gentleness, the Inuit(因紐特人) approach would certainly rank near the top. All the moms mention one golden role: Dont shout or yell at small children.Inuits no-yelling policy is their

45、 central component to raising cool-headed kids. The culture views scolding, or even speaking to children in all angry voice, as inappropriate, although little kids are pushing parents buttons.Playful“storytelling”is another trick to sculpting kidsbehavior. But this storytelling differs hugely from t

46、hose fairy tales full of moral lessons. Parents“retell” what happened when a boy threw a tantrum(發(fā)脾氣)by way of what Shakespeare would understand all too well: putting on a“drama”. After the child has calmed down, the parents will review what happened when the child misbehaved, usually starting with

47、a question: “Can you show us how to throw a tantrum?”Then the child has to think what he should do. If he takes the bait and performs the action, the mom will ask a follow-up question with a playful tone. For example: “Does that seem right?”or“Are you a baby?”She is getting across the idea that“big

48、boys”wont throw a tantrum. Kidsbrains are still developing the circuitry needed for self-contro1. What you do in response to your childrens emotions shapes their brains. So next time, seeing your boy misbehave, try using the Inuits storytelling approach. And dont forget to keep coo1. After all, boys

49、 will be boys.1、Which of the following best explains“pushing parents buttons”underlined in Paragraph 2?ATalking with parents.BPlaying with parentsbuttons.CExposing parentsfaults.DMaking parents annoyed.2、What do we know about Inuits “storytelling”?AIt aims at playing a trick on kids.BIt raises kidsa
