Sports.BWhile CCTVs educational show Animal World is well known, few big screen wildlife documentaries have been made by Chinas film industry.But Born in China, which came out on Aug 2, may be important for Chinese filmmakers who want to get into nature -themed films. The movie, directed by Chinese filmmaker Lu Chuan, was shot in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and shows the animals lives during different seasons.Born in China not only brings to audiences the lives of animals that are rarely seen in the wildgiant pandas, snow leopards, and golden monkeys, but also shows Chinese traditional culture. A symbol of China, the giant panda is both black and white. Its body is thought to show yin and yang, which ancient Chinese ideas were based on. The pandas gentle nature shows how yin and yang lead to peace. It can be seen in the film when a panda mother guides her baby to look for independence and explore the world.Unlike the shy pandas, monkeys always have strong personalities. The Monkey King in Chinas most famous novel Journey to the West has many conflicting traits(特点). It stands for not only impatience but also cleverness and energy. Born in China follows a 2-year-old golden monkey who leaves his family, but then returns and understands the meaning of responsibility.Just as the golden monkey, a mother snow leopard also faces difficulty in raising her babies in the wild. The leopards, known for their rapid attacks and quick footwork(脚步), have inspired a form of pictographic(象形拳) in Shaolin martial arts(武术).“Born in China is a means to show off Chinese traditional culture,” director Lu told the reporter. “Chinese people have learned a lot from wild animals since ancient times. This is why I shot this nature -themed documentary.”25. How is Born in China special according to the article?A. It shows Chinese traditional culture through the lives of animals.B. Its considered the best nature-themed film to e out of China.C. Its the first big screen wildlife documentary ever made in China.D. It shows audiences the lives of rare animals.26.

What may be the best title for the text?A. The stories of 3 animal families B. Symbols of ChinaC. Wildlife born in China D. Nature shows cultureCReader: For six years, Ive run an office that has two employees: me and my boss. He used to be so appreciative that I didnt mind doing a little extra, but about two months ago, he started being rude and demanding. Now he even yells when I dont have time to bring his favorite wine to his home after work. This change started when we met a wealthy new customer, who is a huge jerk (古怪的人) - my bosss new behavior is just like his. My boss is a good man; he and his family have treated me like a little sister. Is there a good way to discuss this with him?Karla: Sounds like your new customer has set a bad example to your boss. You need to remind your boss that youre in his corner- but youre not his slave. My suggestions are as follows.Start with a simple question in a calm moment: “Is everything okay?”State the truth: “Until recently, Ive felt like a valued teammate. But our relationship has bee tense. Your expectations of me seem to have changed. Although I used to do occasional personal businesses for you as a favor, now it seems expected.”Draw your lines: “If you think my job description needs to change or my performance is not good enough, lets discuss that. Otherwise, I need you to stop yelling at me and to respect my personal time.”Ideally, youll get an apology and a promise to do better. After that, its a matter of reinforcement (加强) . If he starts yelling, look at him with a calm expression. After he cools down, restate his request and add, “Is that correct?” For the unreasonable request, such as fetching his favorite wine after work: “Im afraid I cant take care of that for you.” If he keeps acting like a jerk, there are bosses out there who will better respect your time and talent.Karla L. Miller is ready to hear your work dramas. Send your questions to wpmagazinewashpost. 28.

What sort of problem can be solved by Karla L. Miller?A. How do I make a friend? B. How do I kill my personal time?C. How can I get along well with my workmates?D. How can I get rid of wine?DNearly 19 percent of teachers of color left their jobs after the xx school year. Some left for personal reasons like taking care of their families. But 50 percent said they left because they were dissatisfied with their employment situation, such as poor working conditions, student discipline problems and large class sizes. Thus, taking immediate measures to improve it is our top priority.For years, researchers have proved the benefits of increasing the share of minority（少数民族）teachers in schools, especially as our public school system has turned to one that is made up mostly of minority students. Teachers of color, who are more likely than their white counterparts to choose to work in racially diverse(多种多样的) schools, offer particular benefits to their students. Graduation rates increase among minority students when they are taught by racially similar educators, research shows. They can also serve as positive role models, and their presence reduces the chance of racial discrimination（歧视）at school.The Shanker Institute report suggests that the rate of minority teacher hiring is not the whole problem. The problem is what happens after these teachers enter the classroom. These teachers often work in high-poverty rural schools. They are more likely to have less-desirable working conditions.Diversity is a key ponent to equality and opportunity. Where theres a diverse teaching workforce, all kids thrive. So solutions must be found at once to turn this trend around. Firstly, schools should develop mentorship（导师制） programs that support minority teachers once they are in the classroom. Secondly, more money should be spent in improving working conditions in these schools. Of course, school headmasters should also be evaluated on their ability to retain（保持）teachers of color.32. Among teachers of color leaving their jobs, half of them quit because _. A. they had to take care of their childrenB. they had to move to other placesC. they eventually found better-paid jobsD. their employment situation was unsatisfactory33. Which of the following is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. The solutions to increasing graduation rates among minority students.B. The benefits of increasing the share of minority teachers in schools.C. The reasons for teachers of color leaving their jobs in many schools.D. The ways to decrease the possibility of racial discrimination at school.34. Which of the following ponents is vital to equality and opportunity?A. HonestyB. VarietyC. AbilityD. Safety35. How did the author feel when writing the passage?A. He felt angry about the government.B. He was satisfied with the present situation.C. He felt it urgent to solve the problem. D. He didnt care about diverse teaching workforce. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Class participation is a valuable part of learning.
