The (32) ____________ in being able to write neatly could largely be down to the (33) ____________ on laptops in lectures and elsewhere. “There has definitely been a(n) (34) ____________ trend.

Tracey Trussell, a handwriting expert at the British Institute of Graphologists, (37) ____________ Cambridge to “make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures”.

The move also echoes the opinions of Harvard professor Eric Mazur, known as the father of the “flipped classroom”. He believes that the rise of mobile internet (39) ____________ means that we live in an age in which we don’t need to memorize anything.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) While a female politician or first lady can use her clothing to create a favorable public image, male politicians don’t have as many fashion choices to play with. But Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau seems to have discovered a goldmine – his socks. He’s been seen wearing “statement socks” at many public events. For example, during a NATO (北大西洋公约组织) meeting in Brussels in May, Trudeau wore one blue sock and one pink, both with the NATO symbol printed on them. And in June, he wore a pair of socks with the pattern of maple leaves – a national symbol of Canada – when he appeared on a TV show. The New York Times’ editor Vanessa Friedman praised Trudeau’s play on his socks as “clever”. “Socks are subtle enough not to be distracting, but visible enough that you can’t miss the point,” she wrote. “Rarely have a man’s ankles said so much.” One example is a pair he wore during a meeting with Enda Kenny, then the prime minister of Ireland, in Montreal on May 4. During their meeting, Trudeau wore Star Wars socks – simply because that day happened to be International Star Wars Day. If this pair of socks sent out any message, according to Vogue magazine reporter Emily Farra, that message was “just that he has a quirky side and loves George Lucas films,” she wrote. However, some say that 45-year-old Trudeau’s unusual sock choices show a childish side of the prime minister that proves he isn’t mature enough to be the leader of a country. But Friedman doesn’t see it that way. “The socks have been a source of pride and applause on an international scale – a symbol both of Mr Trudeau’s ability to embrace multiculturalism and of his position as a next-generation leader not bound by old traditions,” she wrote. They have opened up possibilities for the future. 56. Trudean wore a pair of socks with the pattern of maple leaves to ________________. A. distract audience’s attention from the TV show B. send a message that he is proud of his country C. narrow the gap between politicians and civilians D. claim that he is the new-generation leader of the country 57. The underlined word “quirky” is closet in meaning to ___________. A. abnormal or immature B. serious or straight C. patriotic or enthusiastic D. odd or unpredictable 58. According to Friedman, Justin Trudeau ______________. A. has a promising future but is still an inexperienced politician B. used a clever way to explore and finally discovered a goldmine C. is open-minded and is ready to accept different cultures D. is a leader who has abandoned old traditions to build up his future 59. The article is mainly about__________________. A. the strange hobby of a young politician B. a young leader’s clever choice of socks C. how male politicians maintain public image D. the gender difference in modern politicians （B） Cross country Cross Country aims to provide the most punctual service possible.

The study is the first of its kind to examine the connection between teacher burnout and students cortisol levels（可体松水平）, which are a biologicalindicatorof stress. Researchers collectedsaliva（唾液）samples from over 400 elementary school children and tested their cortisol levels. They found that in classrooms in which teachers experienced more burnout, or feelings of emotionalexhaustion, students cortisol levels were elevated. Higher cortisol levels in elementary school children have been linked to learning difficulties as well as mental health problems. "This suggests that stressspreadingmight be taking place in the classroom among students and their teachers," said Eva Oberle, the studys lead author. Indeed,the relationship between student stress and teacher burnout is a chicken and egg question. It is unknown what came first - elevated cortisol or teacher burnout. We consider the connection between student and teacher stress a cyclical problem in the classroom." Oberle said a stressful classroom climate could be a result ofinadequatesupport for teachers, which may impact teachers ability to effectively manage their students. A poorly managed classroom can contribute to students needs not being met and increasing stress. This could be reflected in elevated cortisol levels in students. Alternatively, stress could originate from students, who may be more challenging to teach because of increases in anxiety, behavioural problems, or special needs. In thisscenario, teachers could feel overwhelmed and report higher levels of burnout. "Our study is areminderof the systemic issues facing
