举一反三

Here below are two pieces taken from a blog.
▲ Growing up as one of three girls I’ve always been keen on women’s issues.And now with three daughters to raise,I have the responsibility of ensuring that they grow up without any preconceived(预想的) ideas of their capabilities & potential based on their gender.Earlier this year I read an article that indicated that women surpassed men in the workforce for the first time in history.That is a milestone! And while we still don’t have equality in leadership positions or pay (especially if you’re a mom),we have made significant progress over the past couple of decades.All this prompted me to do some digging around to see what else I could learn.Here are some fun facts from the census bureau for you:
●29% of women aged 25 or older had obtained a bachelors degree in 2008 vs.18% in 1987.
●55% of all college students were women in the Fall of 2008.
●60% of women 20 years or older participate in the workforce today vs.34% in 1950.
●14% of the armed forces were women in 2008.compared to 2% in 1950.
▲We’re all looking to stretch the value of our dollar as much as possible.Every day as you juggle the needs of your family,remember to eat right,take your vitamins and keep up with laundry and bills-you probably also look for budget friendly,family appropriate activities.A day trip to a national park is a great way to explore all the wonders of nature,without breaking the bank.Once or twice a month,my wife and I will prepare for a leisurely hike in one of our favorite parks close to home.The night before,she makes some homemade granola and I make sure our reusable water bottles are full and on ice.Next time you’re looking for an inexpensive adventure that your family isn’t soon to forget,take a hike! To find a national park near you,just visit www.nps.gov

Everyone knows the story of Benjamin Franklin’s famous kite flight. He was a man of many talents and interests. His natural curiosity about things and the way they work made him try to find ways to make them work better. Although he made important discoveries and advancements, Ben didn’t “invent” electricity. He did, however, invent the lightning rod which protected buildings and ships from lightning damage.
In colonial America, most people warmed their homes by building a fire in a fireplace even though it was kind of dangerous and used a lot of wood. Ben figured that there had to be a better way. His invention of an iron furnace stove allowed people to warm their home less dangerously and with less wood. The furnace stove that he invented is called a Franklin stove. Interestingly, Ben also established the first fire company and the first fire insurance company in order to help people live more safely.
As the postmaster, Ben had to figure out routes for delivering the mail. He went out riding in his carriage to measure the routes and needed a way to keep track of the distance. He invented a simple odometer and attached it to his carriage.
In his old age, Ben retired from business and public service and wanted to spend his time reading and studying. He found, however, that his old age had made it difficult for him to reach books from the high shelves. Even though he had many grandchildren to help him, he invented a tool called a long arm to reach the high books. The long arm was a long wooden pole with a grasping claw at the end.
Later, other famous inventors, like Thomas A. Edison and Alexander Graham Bell, would follow in Ben’s footsteps by trying to find ways to help people live better. Today’s curious thinkers are keeping Ben’s traditions alive by inventing new and improved ways to make things work.
68. We can learn from the passage that Benjamin Franklin ___________________.
A. made his first invention using a kite
B. made his living by delivering the mail
C. set up some companies to help people to live better
D. made a stove which used other fuels instead of wood
69. The underlined word “odometer” in Paragraph 3 refers to something that ________.
A. contains the mail                                                 B. shows the direction
C. makes the carriage go fast                    D. records total miles covered
70. Benjamin Franklin invented a long arm in order to _________.
A. replace his disabled arm
B. play games with his grandchildren
C. get books from the bookshelf more easily
D. clean and tidy his house and the bookshelf
71. The last paragraph mainly wants to tell us that _____________.
A. Ben was the most famous inventor.
B. other inventors learned a lot from Ben.
C. Ben’s spirit of inventing remain with us.
D. thinkers are more likely to become inventors

Shelly Nielsen sees students fall asleep in class at least twice a week. “When I see teens asleep in my class, I wonder if I am really that boring”, said Nielsen, a teacher. “I also wonder why they are so tired.” Neilson first tried to wake up sleeping students quietly. If the snoozing (呼噜声) continues, she may call a student’s parents to find out how much sleep the students is getting at night and why.
According to a research, teens need at least nine hours of sleep to function properly during the day. And more than 90 percent of teens say they are sleeping less than that each night.
Forgetting homework, yawning in class, losing concentration --- these are the signs of a sleep-deprived (被剥夺睡眠的)student, said Dr. Carl Lawyer, a specialist. “The big problem is the social demand for homework, video games and friends. Teens don’t understand how important sleep is.”
Rebecca Lucas, another teacher agrees. “Teens are busy,” she said, noting many activities most teens are involved in during the day force them to get home pretty late.” When I see teens sleeping in my class, I feel sad, like they are not sleeping enough,” she said. “I also feel frustrated because I have so much to teach in such a short amount of time and teens sleeping in the class slows me down.”
Not sleeping the needed number of hours can affect your day very much. The effect is on school, work and driving and is very frustrating to teachers when students don’t do their best because of being so tired, Lawyer said.
Al Taylor, a teacher says sleeping is not allowed in his class. “When I see a teen sleeping in my class, I feel bad that they didn’t get enough sleep but they need to correct the issue at home,” Taylor said. “I’ve raised teenage boys myself. Teenagers like to wait to the last minute to do their homework so they often stay up late trying to finish it.”
72. What does Shelly first do when she finds students sleeping in class?
A. She wakes them up with no punishment.
B. She blames herself for giving a boring lesson.
C. She asks them to stand outside.
D. She reports it to their parents.
73. Students always feel tired and sleep in class because they __________.
A. have to stay up late to do their homework.
B. are attracted by many activities.
C. are not interested in the lessons
D. are too busy to have enough sleep
74. From the last paragraph, we can infer that Al Taylor __________.
A. can easily lose his temper
B. was a father of teenage boys
C. has no sympathy for sleeping students
D. finds a good way of giving teens more sleep
75. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Why sleep is important
B. Why teens are so tired
C. How students get enough sleep
D. How teachers manage sleeping students
