第一篇:Educationis one of the key words of our time. A man without an education, most of usbelieve, is an unfortunate victim of adverse circumstances, deprived of oneof the greatest twentieth-century opportunities. Convinced of the importance ofeducation, modern states "invest" in institutions of learningto get back "interest" in the form. of a large group of enlightenedyoung men and women who are potential leaders. Education, with its cycles ofinstruction so carefully worked out, punctuated by textbooks—that purchasablewells of wisdom—what would civilization be like without its benefits?
So much is certain: thatwe would have doctors and preachers, lawyers and defendants, marriages andbirths—but our spiritual outlook would be different. We would lay less stresson "facts and figures" and more on a good memory, on appliedpsychology, and the capacity of a man is to get along with his fellow-citizens.If our educational system were fashioned after its bookless past we would havethe most democratic form. of "college" imaginable. Among tribalpeople all knowledge inherited by tradition is shared by all; it is taught toevery member of the tribe so that in this respect every- body is equipped forlife.
It is the idealcondition of the "equal start" which only our most progressive formsof modern education try to regain. In primitive cultures the obligation to seekand to receive the traditional instruction is binding to all. There are no"illiterates"—if the term can be applied to peoples without ascript—while our own compulsory school attendance became law in Germany in1642, in France in 1806, and in England in 1876, and is still non-existent in anumber of "civilized" nations. This shows how long it was before wedeemed it necessary to make sure that all our children could share in theknowledge accumulated by the "happy few" during the past centuries.
Education in thewilderness is not a matter of monetary means. All are entitled to an equalstart. There is none of the hurry, which, in our society, often hampers thefull development of a growing personality. There, a child grows up under theever-present attention of his parents' and therefore the jungles and thesavannahs know of no "juvenile delinquency". No necessity of making aliving away from home results in neglect of children, and no father isconfronted with his inability to "buy" an education for his child. (选自新概念)

第三篇:关于脸书,推特等这些网络平台火的原因,强调以前的网络平台web1.只是让你看别人提供的content,而web2.如这些社交平台是让你能跟别人交流 自己creat content,而不是enjoy别人提供的content.一题问:Myspace社交平台火的原因:我选了有content的那个选项。有题问下面哪个选项作者没提及:我选了 大家怀念web1.那个选项。
3Thisreading comprehension focuses on social networks. It's followed by keyvocabulary relating to social networks and technology and a follow-up quiz totest understanding.
Social Networks
Do the names MySpace,Facebook, Orkut, etc. ring a bell? They probably do because they are some ofthe most popular sites on the internet today. These sites are all called'social networking' sites because they help people meet and discuss thingsonline. Each of these social networking sites has its own strengths: MySpace isespecially popular among teenagers, Facebook is popular with college agepeople, Orkut is especially loved in Brazil, and CyWorld is the site to visitin South Korea. The common thread between all of these social networks is thatthey provide a place for people to interact, rather than a place to go to reador listen to 'content'.
Social networks areconsidered to be web 2.0. What does this mean? To understand this, it'simportant to understand what the original web did (often called web 1.0). Backin the nineties, the internet - or web - was a place to go to read articles,listen to music, get information, etc. Most people didn't contribute to thesites. They just 'browsed' the sites and took advantage of the information orresources provided. Of course, some people did create their own sites. However,creating a site was difficult. You needed to know basic HTML coding (theoriginal language the internet uses to 'code' pages). It certainly wasn'tsomething most people wanted to do as it could take hours to get a basic pagejust right. Things began to get easier when blogs (from web log) wereintroduced. With blogs, many more people began writing 'posts', as well ascommenting on other people's blogs.
In 2003 a site namedMySpace took the internet by storm. It was trying to mimic the most popularfeatures of Friendster, the first social networking site. It quickly becamepopular among young users and the rest was history. Soon everyone was trying todevelop a social networking site. The sites didn't provide 'content' to people,they helped people create, communicate and share what they loved includingmusic, images and videos. They key to the success of these sites is that theyprovide a platform on which users create the content. This is very different fromthe beginning of the internet which focused on providing 'content' for peopleto enjoy.
Relying on users tocreate content is the key to the success of web 2.0 companies. Besides thesocial networking sites discussed here, other huge success stories include:Wikipedia, Digg.com and the latest success - Twitter. All of these companiesrely on the desire of users to communicate with each other, thereby creatingthe 'content' that others want to consume.
第四篇:关于学生餐食的问题,什么考虑学生自己的意愿,还是避免肥胖,减少垃圾脂肪食品的摄入 有一题问:nanny state X什么意思,我选了A,父母娇惯孩子,回来查单词,这个词组好像是保姆的意思。有一题说文章最后一句 ending nanny state Xwill be enticed ,espcially when you are 12 .什么意思。我我选了C,父母应该帮助孩子做他们的自己的决定之类的。最后一题问:文章作者态度是客观objective,讽刺sarcastic,不关心indifferrent,失望disappinted.我选了B讽刺。还有一题问 学校食堂供应者转变的原因是什么,我选了D above all 好像前三个文章都涉及到了,但是这篇阅读我也不确定。
No taste for whole-grainbread? Let them eat cake.
Also pizza, frenchfries, doughnuts, chicken nuggets and whatever else American children’sprematurely cholesterol-clogged hearts desire.
I’m referring, ofcourse, to the battle over school meals. In 2010, alarmed by the growing girthof children around the country, Congress directed the Agriculture Department tomake school meals healthier. The USDA soon issued expert-recommended standardsthat require, for example, more vegetables and whole grains and less sodium andfat.
These changes towardless--processed foods impose costs, as you might imagine. But the new standardscame with additional federal funds. They were also implemented with strongsupport from the School Nutrition Association, a lobbying group that representsschool food professionals.
Now, four years later, theassociation has changed its tune and is lobbying Congress to gut the newnutritional requirements by letting districts effectively opt out of themaltogether. Judging from a House Appropriations Committee vote last week,Republicans look eager to push through the lobby’s demands.
Rest assured, the SchoolNutrition Association says this alimentary about-face has absolutely nothing todo with the fact that half its revenue now comes from industry sources, as itsspokeswoman recently told The Post. Or that the biggest sponsors of theorganization’s most recent annual convention included PepsiCo, Domino’s Pizza,Sara Lee and Schwan Food, which reportedly sells pizzas to more thanthree-quarters of America’s 96,000 K-12 schools. (Pizza, remember, counts as avegetable serving for school-meal purposes, thanks to the last time Congressdecided to improve school nutritional standards.) Or that corporate memberscomprise a third of participants in the association’s annual legislativeconference.
No, no, no. This is notabout special interests. It’s about the children and their sophisticated,freedom-loving, nanny-state-detesting palates.
Children, it seems, areunhappy about the healthier foods, leaving carrots unconsumed, applesauceuneaten, whole-grain tortillas untouched. Or at least they are in some schools;more than 90 percent of schools “report that they are successfully meeting theupdated nutrition standards,” the USDA says, and the School NutritionAssociation could not provide me with a comprehensive list of exactly which oreven how many districts want to roll back the standards. The lobby group has,however, trotted out a few of its members to argue that schools are better offbuying the cheaper foods that students prefer (and that the association’s most munificentsponsors just happen to manufacture).
Wecan’t force students to eat something they don’t want,” said Lyman Graham, foodservice director for school districts in and near Roswell, N.M., in a statementreleased by the School Nutrition Association.
Likewise: “The olderstudents, especially, know what they want, and some days they simply don’t wanta fruit or vegetable with their meals,” said Dolores Sutterfield, childnutrition director of the school district in Harrisburg, Ark., in the same newsrelease. “At about 25 cents a serving, the mandate to serve a fruit orvegetable has us throwing away money and making kids angry with us.”
And finally: “Theproblem is that not all students’ taste buds are quite ready or receptive tothe new meal standards,” said Lynn Harvey, chief of child nutrition servicesfor North Carolina’s Department of Public Instruction, in a conference calllast week.
Children, as everyoneknows, are the best stewards of their own diets. Especially children in theschool districts that have been vocal about wanting exemptions from the newnutritional requirements. Just take a look at the childhood obesity rates inthe areas where the three officials I quoted above work: Across North Carolina,1 in 6 children ages 10 to 17 is obese, according to the National Survey ofChildren’s Health. In one of the New Mexico counties whose schools Grahamoversees, more than 20 percent of adolescents are obese, according to thestate’s health department. At campuses in Arkansas’s Harrisburg schooldistrict, obesity rates range from 26 percent to 36 percent, according to theArkansas Center for Health Improvement.
So yes, by all means,let these kids’ delicate taste buds dictate what schools serve them and whattaxpayers should subsidize — because, after all, education is all aboutindulging children’s whims and cravings. Give the children what they want:cheap, processed food. And while we’re at it, I’m pretty sure I’ve heard thatkids don’t like homework, either.
Ending the nanny statecan sound pretty enticing. Especially when you’re 12.

A scientific paper is awritten and published report describing original researchresults. That short definitionmust be qualified, however, by noting that a scientific paper must bewritten in a certain way and it must be published in a certain way, as definedby three centuries of developing tradition, editorial practice, scientificethics, andthe interplay of printing and publishing procedures.
Toproperly define "scientific paper," we must define the mechanism thatcreates a scientific paper, namely, valid publication. Abstracts, theses,conference reports, and many other types of literature are published, but suchpublications do not normally meet the test of valid publication. Further, evenif a scientific paper meets all of the other tests, it is not validly publishedif it is published in the wrong place. That is, arelatively poor researchreport, but one that meets the tests, is validly published if accepted andpublished in the right place (a primary journal, usually); a superbly preparedresearch report is not validly published if published in the wrongplace. Most of the government report literature and conference literature, aswell as house organs and other ephemeral publications, do not qualify asprimary literature.
Many people havestruggled with the definition of "valid publication," from which isderived the definitionof "scientific paper." The Council of Biology Editors (CBE), anauthoritative professional organization (in biology, at least) dealing withsuch problems, arrived at the following definition....
An acceptable primary scientificpublication must be the first disclosure containing sufficient information toenable peers (1) to assess observations, (2) to repeatexperiments, and (3) toevaluate intellectual processes; moreover, it must be susceptible to sensoryperception, essentially permanent, available to the scientific communitywithout restriction, and available for regular screening by one or more of the majorrecognized secondary services (e.g., currently, Biological Abstracts,ChemicalAbstracts, Index Medicus, Excerpta Medica, Bibliography of Agriculture, etc.,in the United States and similar facilities in other countries).
翻译 我年轻的时候,喜欢跟名人通信。严格地说,是我写信给人家比较多,人家回信的较少。但越是大师 级的名人,越是给我回信。
我曾向住在上海的著名的漫画家丰子恺先生求教,但他没有给我题字或是画画,而寄给我一张他的亲笔 信。我想可能是丰子恺先生故意让我从这个亲笔信中推测他的良苦用心。我想“丰”就是丰富知识的意 思,“子”即孺子,就是年轻人的意思,“恺”是欢乐愉悦的意思。哦!我明白了,他是想告诉我:年轻人要 掌握好丰富的知识和技能,才能有光明的未来和愉快的人生。
When I was young, Iwasfond of having correspondence with celebrated persons. To be precise, I senta lot of letters, but received not many replies. However, those who enjoyed thereputation of “masters” did write back to me. Another time, I wrote to consultMr. Feng Zikai4,the well-known cartoonist in Shanghai. He sent me neitherremark nor picture,but only his autograph “丰子恺” (Feng Zikai). As Mr.Feng was a cartoonist with agood sense of humour, I thought he might haveimbedded some well-considered message in it for me to discover. So I racked mybrains and worked out the following implication: “丰”, meaning abundance,refers to an abundance of knowledge; “子”, meaning child,refers to young people; as for “恺”, it certainly means joyand happiness. Ah, yes, I had got Mr. Feng’s message—“Onlyby acquiring an abundance of knowledge and skills, can young people have abright future and ahappy life.”
