On Thursday, April 27, girls around the world will go to work instead of going to school. "Take Our
Daughters to Work Day" is a special event in which participants go with their parents to work instead of
going to school for one day. It will give them a chance to experience various careers first-hand by
accompanying their mom or dad to his or her job.
Who Is Invited ?
Girls aged 9 through 15. Why girls ? Research reveals that young girls generally have less awareness of career options than boys. Visiting parents" work will help them to make informed career choices.
What Will They Do at SLAC ?

tour of SLAC.
From 11:30 to 12:30 a panel of women from various careers at SLAC will speak to the girls about
their jobs and how they"ve got where they are today.
At 12:30 the girls will go outside to have their lunch. Please have your daughter bring a sack lunch;
only drinks and dessert will be provided.
After lunch, parents will show their girls the parents" work area. There the girls will see the kind of
work their parents do, and in many cases they will have an opportunity to work alongside their parents.
From 2:00 to 3:00 pm several departments will hold Open House. Employees are encouraged to visit
these Open Houses with their daughters.

举一反三
I love my Blackberry-it"s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also
love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thought. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices(设备)and truly communicate with
others.
On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My
goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to
thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom. I have a rule -no
laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were
not happy.
Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with
students misusing technology. There"s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There"s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.
The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students
to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently
and to make connections between the course the material and the class discussion.
I"ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the educations reflect student
satisfaction with the environment that I create .Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge,
they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.
I"m not saying that I won"t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I
hear a really good reason for the change. I"m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue
is just too sweet to give up.
B. others" misuse of technology
C. discussion topics
D. the author"s class regulations
B. accept
C. change
D. reject
B. encourage students to have in-depth conversations
C. help students to better understand complex themes
D. affect students" concentration on course evaluation
B. will give up teaching history
C. will change his teaching plan soon
D. values technology-free dialogues in his class

One theory is that the stripes help the zebra cool down. On hot days the black stripes get a lot hotter than
the white area of the zebra and under the black stripes there are special layers of fat for protection. Hot
air then rises off the black stripes, forcing colder air down around the white areas, cooling the zebra
down. This, however, is just a theory. The stripes can also confuse predators (食肉动物) when zebras
stay with other animals in great numbers.
Zebras have excellent hearing and eyesight and can run at a speed of up to 35 miles per hour
(56 kilometers per hour). They also have a powerful kick that can cause serious injury to a predator, like
a lion, or an African wild dog. Usually the lead male of the herd stays at the back of the group to defend
against predators if necessary, while the females and youngsters run from danger.
Zebras are herbivores and feed mostly on grasses, although they also might eat the leaves and stems (茎) of bushes a bit. They eat grasses for many hours each day, using their strong teeth. Spending so
much time chewing wears the zebra"s teeth down, so their teeth keep growing all their lives. As the dry
season arrives and the grasses die back, zebra herds travel to find more food and water holes for drinking. Most zebras have no specific territories. They travel from place to place, never staying in one area very
long.
B. The black stripes help the zebra live through cold days.
C. The zebra can easily be attacked by predators.
D. The zebra always travels with other animals.
B. animals that only eat plants
C. animals that kill and eat other animals
D. animals that live in groups
B. are used all day
C. are always growing
D. are kept clean
B. Their stripes can confuse predators.
C. They can run 56 miles per hour.
D. They usually stay in one area all their lives.
B. Everyday Tips
C. Digital Stadium
D. Discoveries
readership is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.
Shakespeare"s work,together with most other classics,is seen as remote,and written in a
400yearold version of English that is about as inviting as toothache.
Still,in British schools,it is compulsory to study the bard(诗人),and when something is
made compulsory,usually the result is boredom,resentment(憎恨) or both.
This was my experience of the classics at school.But when I reached my late teenage
years,I had a change of heart.Like every other young person since the dawn of time,the
world confused me.I wanted answers,so I turned to books to find them.
I went on to take a PhD in literature and have taught it in Britain and China.I have never
regretted it.There is something in literature that people want,even if they don"t read books.
You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works,the recent film
version of Jane Austen"s Pride and Prejudice being a_case_in_point.These popular
adaptationsmay help increase people"s interest in the classics.
Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare"s
actual play.If that is the case,then I welcome the trend.But do not make the mistake of thinking
that it is the same thing.Shakespeare is a poet.His greatness is in his language.Reading
someone else"s rewriting of his work is like peeling a banana,throwing away the fruit,and
eating the skin take on the original.It really is worth the effort.
B．British students usually find compulsory reading dull.
C．Only those studying literature read Shakespeare"s works.
D．For British people,Shakespeare"s works are no longer classics.
B．was forced to read the classics for a PhD
C．turned to literature to seek answers in his teens
D．thinks only people who read books like literature
B．get a PhD in literature
C．seek their answers about the world
D．become more interested in the classics
B．a good example
C．a movie adaptation
D．a popular phenomenon
B．The rewriting trend does more harm than good.
C．Readers should try to read the original versions.
D．Readers need to learn the language in the classics.

From the first use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space
stations,human beings have been putting great effort into space research.And so far,we have
achieved many successes.But there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not
cease trying to progress.
The international space station is an important step we should take in space exploration.
It is not only helpful but also essential.It provides a proper space environment for many
experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time.It is also a base for the observations
of the earth and the universe.It could also be an important base for later travels to the
moon and Mars.In a word,if we want to explore space more,the first thing we should do
is to set up a space station.
As the space station costs a lot of money,it is hard for one country alone to establish
one.The USA seems to be the only country that has the ability to build a space station alone,
and it has tried to do so,but not very successful.So it aggregated many other countries to
work on it together.Though it is still extremely expensive,it is much cheaper than doing it
alone.It is really a job that needs everyone"s effort and will benefit everyone.
But even so,the funds needed are still a big problem.As for the USA,it seems that it has
too many things to spend its money on.Although it is the richest country in the world,it has
much debt every year.It has to make arrangements about its finance,and try to find a balance
in all these issues.
B．Doubtful.
C．Critical.
D．Dissatisfied
B．many experiments have been done in the international space sation
C．the international space station is necessary for people to explore space more
D．people have traveled to Mars from the international space station
international space station?
B．That it needs everyone"s effort.
C．That it will benefit every participating country.
D．That it is too far away from the earth.
B．scolded
C．allowed
D．forbade
5．Which of the following aspects about building the international space station is NOT
mentioned in the passage?
B．Cooperation.
C．Significance.
D．Specific arrangements.
