26、How to Teach A Child to Ride A Bike?

You never forget how to ride a bike, but most of us forget how hard it was to learn. 【1】. Here’s what to keep in mind when instructing little ones from two feet to two wheels.

Begin with the right equipment. Start with a bicycle that’s the right size. A newbie should be able to sit on the seat with both feet flat on the ground. If the child has been using a bike with training wheels, remove them. 【2】. Long pants and long-sleeved shirts aren’t a bad idea, either, to prevent injury in the event of a fall.

【3】. Head to a location that has smooth, flat, open pavement and little or no traffic to distract or endanger your child. It helps if there’s no one around, too, so he won’t feel self-conscious. The ideal spot? A school parking lot on the weekend.

Emphasize the basics. The fundamentals of biking are balance, coasting, pedaling, and steering. To help a child learn these basic skills, remember to show how to do that in the flesh and dare to let him try. No doubt there will be more than a few stops and starts and maybe even a fall or two. 【4】.

Now practice a lot. After a fair number of dry runs, it’s time to move to the big stage. Find a bike path or a little-travelled street in a residential neighbourhood. 【5】. Bike along with him to check that he’s using proper safety techniques and feels comfortable pedaling in traffic.

A．Find a safe spot to learn

B．Go to practice with the child

C．Encourage him to slow down and go on

D．Show him how to share the road with cars

E．A good-quality, well-fitting helmet is also a must

F．That’s why the experience of teaching children to ride can be frustrating

G．But eventually, he will manage to ride a fair stretch without stopping or falling

27、Few people have achieved fame for coming in last place. That is why Michael Edwards, or “Eddie the Eagle”, became a rather unexpected hero. Unlike most athletes, Eddie did not come to the 1988 Calgary Olympic Winter Games for a medal. He came simply to compete. In doing so, he realized his dream.

At first, Eddie tried to make the British national ski team but failed. Then he chose the riskiest event, ski jumping. No British skier had ever competed in that sport, but having no competitors meant that Eddie had a better chance of qualifying (取得资格) for the 1988 Olympic Games. It also meant there was no support for him. Eddie had no coach, equipment, or financial support, but what he had was determination. Not afraid of what he lacked, Eddie set out to learn his chosen sport, training himself for nearly 2 years. And he managed to meet the qualification for Olympic ski jumping, and landed himself in the 1988 Olympic Games. Eddie was determined to compete, and while he came in last, he did manage to land his jumps, and he still holds the British record in that sport. Coming in last place actually made him the star of the Olympics and the true embodiment (化身) of the Olympic spirit.

Many of us may have experienced similar limitations during our own youth that prevented us from following our dreams. Eddie’s rejection (拒绝) from the British national ski team is a story that many of us can relate to. Rejection can be devastating, but we can struggle to find the courage to put ourselves back out there, or the creativity to find another way.

【1】What was Eddie’s dream?

A．To become a hero.

B．To join the national ski team.

C．To take part in the Olympics

D．To develop his ski jumping skills.

【2】Why did Eddie choose ski jumping as his event?

A．It was popular among British skiers.

B．It meant a better chance to win a medal.

C．He would get the support he needed in this event.

D．He would be more likely to be included in the Olympics.

【3】What made Eddie the star of the Olympics?

A．His caring little for fame.

B．His professional performance.

C．His breaking the British record.

D．His determination to follow his dream.

【4】What does the underlined word “devastating” mean in the last paragraph?

A．Unforgettable.

B．Disastrous.

C．Sudden.

D．Confusing.

【5】Which is the best title for the article?

A．Bravery.

B．1998 Olympic Games.

C．An unexpected hero.

D．ski jumping.

28、   Beijing will provide COVID-19 vaccinations (接种疫苗) for certain groups in nursing homes, including the elderly and caregivers, on a voluntary basis to prevent a renewed outbreak at nursing homes during autumn and winter, the local government said.

Those who will receive the vaccines include nursing home kitchen workers, security guards and cleaners. Beijing Daily reported on Friday.

Xing Yinli ,director of Jingkangyuan, a nursing home in Fengtai district with about 290 elderly residents，said they have received the document recently and will strictly follow its guidance.

As to vaccinations, she said they will ask for permission from residents, their family members and workers before giving vaccines.

In late October, Shaoxing, Zhejiang province carried out an emergency COVTD-19 vaccine program, allowing the public to ask for injections in advance, with key groups first. A similar program was also organized in Jiaxing, Ningbo and Yiwu in Zhejiang.

Nationwide, emergency use of home grown COVID-19 vaccines was approved in June and launched in late July. China now has four coronavirus candidate vaccines in the third stage clinical trials (临床试验).

The document from Beijing also said nursing homes should conduct nucleic acid testing (核酸检测) every month among kitchen workers and residents who leave the nursing homes to see a doctor. Tests will cover all people in nursing homes considered at high risk if new infections are reported in the city. Besides, routine disinfections (消毒) should be strengthened in kitchens, storerooms and restrooms, it said. The document also recommended noncontact visits from family members.

29、   Some African schools are adding programs that teach what officials are calling "soft skills" to students. Soft skills are personal qualities that help a person relate effectively to others. Officials say this kind of training can help students succeed in the job market and in life.

The training is being offered at the St. Bernadette Kamonyi Secondary School in Kigali, Rwanda. For weeks, its students have been visiting neighborhood businesses. The goal of these field trips is for the young people to learn what is necessary to secure a job.

Rwanda has started a work readiness training program called Akazi Kanoze Access. It means "work well done" in Kinyarwanda, the official language of Rwanda. The program has trained more than 20,000 students to help make them more appealing to employers.

Emmanuel Ntagungira is a teacher and works as a trainer for Akazi Kanoze Access, He often visits employers who have given jobs to high schools. The employers are very happy because the graduates are ready to work. He says he hopes the program will help lower unemployment, which stands at over 13 percent nationwide.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Among the note-taking forms in today’s US schools, the Cornell method is widely recommended. Providing a form for concentrating and organizing notes, the Cornell method sets up a system to direct students to 【1】  the paper into two columns. The note-taking column, which is usually on the right, is twice the size of the key word column on the left. The student should leave five to seven lines blank, at the bottom of the page.

Notes from a lecture or teaching occupy the note-taking column which 【2】 contain the main ideas of the textbook or lecture. Most 【3】 ideas and long sentences are avoided while 【4】 or abbreviations （缩写） are preferred instead. To assist with future reviews, 【5】 thoughts or questions should be noted down as soon as possible so that the students may 【6】 to these points for reflection or further research. The key-word column is a(n) 【7】 place to note down these ideas. These ideas may later turn into potential research results as students are always encouraged to reflect on the notes 【8】 or go deep into the questions further.

Within 24 hours after the note-taking, the student must revise and then produce a short summary in the bottom space. Such move helps him to 【9】 the topic better. When preparing for a test, the student has 【10】 to a brief but detailed record of the previous classes.
