举一反三
Every year in the first week of my English class, some students inform me that writing is too hard. They never write, unless homework requires it. They find the writing process painful and difficult.
How awful it is to be able to speak in a language but not ________, especially English, with its rich
vocabulary. Being able to speak but not write is like living in a large house but never leaving one small
room. When I meet students who think they can"t write, I know as a teacher my duty is to show them the
rest of the rooms. My task is to build fluency and accuracy while providing the opportunity in any writing
activity to enrich the moral and emotional development of my students. One great way to do this is by
having students write in a journal in class every day.
Writing ability is like strength training. Writing needs to be done daily, just like exercise; just as muscles grow stronger with exercise, writing skills improve quickly with daily practice. I often see a rise in
students" confidence after only a few weeks of journal writing.
Expressing oneself in writing is one of the most important skills I teach to strengthen the whole students. When my students practice journal writing, they are practicing for their future professional lives. They
build skills so that some day they might write a great novel, a piece of news, or the perfect love letter.

people are happier and healthier,have better marriages and have more respectable occupations.
Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive
defendants(被告).But in the executive circle,beauty can become a liability.
While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder,it is harmful
to a woman.
Handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men;effort and
ability were thought to account for their success.
Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones;their
success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.
All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable
than the attractive female executives.Interestingly,though,the rise of the unattractive overnight successes
was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.
Why are attractive women not thought to be able?An attractive woman is thought to be more
feminine and an attractive man more masculine(有男子气概的)than the less attractive ones.Thus,an
attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs,but an attractive woman in a traditionally
masculine position appears to lack the"masculine"qualities required.
This is true even in politics."When the only clue is how he or she looks,people treat men and women
differently,"says Anne Bowman,who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on
political candidates.She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs,one of
men and one of women,in order of attractiveness.The students were told the photographs were of
candidates for political offices.They were asked to rank them again,in the order they would vote for
them.
The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men,but the women who had
been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.
B.instability
C.disadvantage
D.burden
B.makes women look more honest and capable
C.is of primary importance to women
D.often enables women to succeed quickly
B.affects men and women alike
C.has as little effect on men as on women
D.is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women
B.prejudiced
C.oldfashioned
D.pessimistic
B.emphasize the importance of appearance
C.discuss the negative aspects of being attractive
D.give advice to jobseekers who are attractive
________________. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or
older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect
American society in many ways: education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the growing of America has
made it a very different society, in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is
suitable at various ages.
A person"s age no longer tells you anything about his or her social position, marriage or health. There"s
no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The_social_clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn"t
as strong as it used to be. It doesn"t surprise us to hear of a 29yearold university president or a 35yearold grandmother, or a 70yearold man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.
Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age." No one says, "
Act your age" any more. We"ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

2.How do we no longer feel when older people behave as young people? (no more than 3 words)

"Two full inches in the first three days!"
These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper,radio and television ads,promising
new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device.The promoters of products
say they can shape the legs,slim the face,smooth wrinkles,or in some other way to add to beauty or
desirability.
Often such products are nothing more than moneymaking things for their promoters.The results
they produce are questionable,and some are dangerous to health.
To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public,it is necessary to
understand something of the laws covering their regulation.If the product is a drug,FDA(Food and
Drug Administration)can require proof under the Food,Drug,and Cosmetic Act that is safe and
effective before it is put on the market.But if the product is a device,FDA has no authority to require
premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness.If a product already on the market is a danger to health,
FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily,or it can take
legal action,including seizure(查封)of the product.
One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor,which had
been sold for reducing the waistline.The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through
contact pads.FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds
that it was dangerous to health and life.
Obviously,most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings
(法律诉讼),and new devices appear continually.Before buying,it is up to the consumer to judge the
safety or effectiveness of such items.
B.costly
C.unreliable
D.illegal
B.New products are more likely to be questionable.
C.The production of a device must be approved by FDA.
D.The promoters usually just care about profits.
B.if it is a device
C.if its consumers make complaints
D.if its distributors challenge FDA"s authority
B.a product whose distributor was involved in a legal case
C.a successful advertisement of a beauty product
D.an example of a quality beauty product
B.show the weakness of the law on product safety
C.give advice on how to keep young and beautiful
D.introduce the organization of FDA
entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.
A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of "melody roads",
which use cars as tuning forks(音叉)to play music as they travel.
The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road
surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.
Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of
high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.
Patent documents for the design describe it as notches(刻痕)"formed in a road surface so as
to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melodylike tones".
There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan-one of which plays the tune of a
Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda.He scraped some
markings into a road with a bulldozer(推土机)before driving over them and found that they helped
to produce all kinds of tones.
The optimal speed for melody road is 44 kph,but people say it is not always easy to get the
intended sound.
"You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,"wrote one Japanese blogger."Driving
too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12 mph[20 km/h]has a slowmotion
effect, making you almost carsick."
B.grooves
C.spaces between intervals
D.bulldozers
B.how big the grooves are
C.the number of the grooves
D.the speed of the car
B.possible
C.best
D.suitable
B.drive slowly
C.open the windows wide
D.keep the windows closed
B.Melody Roads in Japan
C.A Musical Road Surface
D.A New Invention in Japan
