27、   As a teacher we all have those memories of students—we wonder if we were able to teach or reach those students who had a need to get out of their seats every five minutes or so.

I recently received an e-mail from one such student, Paco. Paco’s e-mail brought back memories of one particular (特别) class.

In our high school’s first year, our classes were 80 minutes long instead of the traditional 40 minutes. On this particular day, I was being observed by two college professors. Of course, I was proud of the fact that the class was conducted entirely in Spanish and the students felt comfortable expressing themselves in Spanish.

On that day, Paco came running through the door with a toasted cheese sandwich in hand, saying “Senora Mike. I’m hungry and I hope you don’t mind if I just quickly eat this great toasted cheese sandwich.” I said, “Go ahead, Paco.” Paco sat down and finished his sandwich. Paco had now noticed our two visitors. Of course, our two visitors noticed Paco the minute he ran through the door.

The lesson was going along quite well, and all the students were working in their groups. Suddenly, Paco raised his hand and said, “Senora, esta lloviendo en mis pantalones.” (“Mrs. Mike, it is raining in my trousers.”) Now, being Paco’s Spanish teacher, I understood what he wanted. I knew that it was his way of requesting to go to the bathroom. You could just imagine the laughter from the other students.

I always wonder just how much Spanish Paco learned in that class, but I know he learned more than just Spanish based on an e-mail he recently wrote to me:

I know I didn’t behave myself but you actually cared. You knew I had potential (潜力). So even though I messed up a lot, you never gave up... I’m deeply thankful to you for everything you taught me about Spanish. My attitude and life will stick with me the rest of my day...

You see, Paco was my student ten years ago.

【1】What can be inferred about Paco?

A.He did well in his lessons. B.He didn’t behave well enough.

C.He didn’t see the two professors. D.He showed no respect for his teacher.

【2】Why did Paco raise his hand in class?

A.To have his classmates laugh. B.To give a suggestion.

C.To answer a question. D.To make a request.

【3】Why did Paco write an e-mail to the author?

A.To express his thanks. B.To ask for help.

C.To make an apology. D.To tell him his success.

【4】What does the author intend to tell us by writing the text?

A.How to teach a successful lesson. B.How to get on well with students.

C.A teacher’s influence on students. D.Students’ attitude to their teachers.

29、   Marian Wright Edelman, an American lawyer, educator and children’s rights activist, was born on June 6,1939 in South Carolina, one of five children. Her father Arthur Wright was preacher (牧师) who died when she was only 14 years old. In his last words to her, he advised her not to “let anything get in the way of your education.”

After high school, Edelman went on to study at Spelman College and later traveled to the Soviet Union. When she returned to Spelman in 1959, Edelman became involved in the civil rights movement (民权运动). This work inspired her to drop her plans to enter the Foreign Servic (外交部门) and study law instead. In 1973, Edelman set up the Children’s Defense Fund as a voice for poor and disabled children. She served as public speaker on behalf of (代表) these children.

During a tour, Marian met Peter Edelman an assistant to Kennedy, and the next year she moved to Vashington, D.C. to marry him and to work for social justice (社会公正) in the center of America’s political scene. The couple had three sons: Joshua, Jonah and Ezra. Jonah is the founder of Stand for Children, group that promotes children’s education, and Ezra is documentary (记录片) filmmaker who won an Emmy for his film “O.J. : Made in America.”

Edelman is the writer of many books for children and adults. Her titles for readers include I’m Your child, God: Prayers for Our Children, Guide My Feet: Prayers and Meditations for Our Children, Lanterns: A Memoir of Mentors, and The Measure of Our Success: A Letter to My Children and Yours, which was a surprising success.

30、What is the future of journalism?

With the coming of a new era of technology and connectivity, journalism will soon reach a crisis point. How can journalists now find their own voice and keep the profession alive and well among the _________ of millions of people?

Khaled Hosseini once wrote that “If culture is a house, language is the key”. Imagine if journalists didn’t have to use an interpreter to speak to their _________ in war zones, but could communicate with them directly? How much more information would they be able to gather that would otherwise have been lost in _________? Nelson Mandela said that if you speak to someone in one language, you speak to their head, but if you speak to them in their _________ language, you speak to their heart.

Technology is often seen as the future of journalism. We are more connected than we ever have been before. _________, this can have serious consequences when it comes to journalism. Although the news can be updated quicker, the fast speed with which these interactions are allowed to take place can ultimately damage _________: often there simply isn’t time to fact-check or proof-read properly, which can lead to a severe _________ in journalistic quality.

With the internet _________ our lives, there are more and more voices all shouting to be heard. Everyone has their own voice, all the social networks are highly _________, and the internet has an answer for everything you ask. So how can __________ journalists compete? By sticking to the __________, not sensationalising if unnecessary, and exhibiting strength in their personal style.

One of the greatest strengths of the internet is its adaptability. Stories no longer have to consist of __________ text, with one or two images. Journalists can use all sorts of media to create a lively story, which will in turn __________ readers quicker and easier than a page of crowded text. Although the story itself will still be the backbone of journalism, there will be a greatly increased room for creativity.

To conclude, as we grow ever more conscious that we live in a globalized and digitalized world, there is a greater drive towards __________ awareness and stylistic factual reporting, which will be invaluable in journalism.
