I'd noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I'd been Alice's middle school English, Latin, and writing teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, to what has gone wrong. Yet I'm torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I'm not sure this mother is ready to hear.The truth for this parent and so many others is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar (圣坛) of achievement, and it's our fault. Alice's parents, her teachers, society at large — we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect (智力), and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As, championship prizes, and college acceptance, and not on purpose, we taught her that we don't really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it's better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her to fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.【文章大意】本文通过Alice的例子说明了父母、老师和社会有时会扼杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。

Unit 2 English around the worldⅠ.阅读理解AImagine this: You're at the movies seeing the latest boxoffice hit.The leading actor chases down(找到) the film's bad guy before winning over the beautiful leading lady.What does he do next? He sucks on a cigarette.What's wrong with this picture? Doesn't the beautiful woman see her hero's yellow teeth? Doesn't she smell his smoky breath? And wouldn't the good guy have trouble chasing,since smoking causes a person to cough?But you don't see any of that when someone smokes cigarettes in the movies.And there is a lot of smoking in movies.Actors light up in more than 50 percent of youthrated (G,PG,PG13) movies,according to the American Legacy Foundation,which aims to put an end to smoking among young people.That means that Hollywood is showing 14 billion images of smoking to young people every year.All that exposure to onscreen smoking can influence teens to smoke.The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) argues that 44 percent of teens who begin smoking do so because they've seen smoking in movies.The CDC reports that teens are two to three times more likely to start smoking after seeing repeated smoking scenes in movies than teens who are lightly exposed to smoking in movies.Several organizations are w orking to remove smoking in youthrated movies.And adults are not the only ones who care about this issue.Many teens are actively involved.Livia Clandorf,16,of Chatham,New York,is a member of Reality Check,an organization that educates teens about what it considers to be the manipulative (巧妙处理的) practices of tobacco companies.Livia participated in an event called a “movie stomp (跺脚)”. Reality Check rents out a movie theater and screens a youthrated film that shows smoking.Every time aud ience members see smoking,they stomp their feet and show disapproval by shouting “boo”.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。

Just as the weekly show has been well-received, its reading booths, equipped with professional recording devices and cameras, have become instant hits.A crowd of more than 200 people were pictured lining up outside theShanghai Library at 11 am on March 4 — the first day of the booth's opening to the public in Shanghai. The deadline for registrations was brought forward to 2 pm instead of the scheduled 5:30 pm, as the number of waiting readers continued to grow. Some waited more than nine hours for a tryout in the booth, according to library management.“There is an old photo in the late 1970s capturing people lining up outside the Shanghai Library before it opens. If that was a spring of reading in Shanghai, now I think another spring has arrived again,”library manager Zhou Deming, told The Paper.The reading booth is the only one of its kind in the city of economic center at the moment, but more are expected to be put into use in the coming months, according to the library's website.The program has also led to booths in other cities including Beijing, Hangzhou, Guangzhou and Xi'an to appeal to more people to read and share their life stories.With the recent boom of culture-themed TV shows such as Readers and Chinese Poetry Congress, some are optimistic that this will help the country love literature and reading again in general.【文章大意】随着CCTV的《朗读者》节目受到人们的欢迎,全国范围开始刮起了“读书风”。
