while exchanging ideas online with a group of new moms on how to take care of children, deng came across stories of children born with diseases being left by their parents on the street or in hospitals. “my original intention was to find medical aid for those kids, and give them the love they deserve as much as other children, ”said deng, 41. with a group of mothers in beijing in 2007, deng cofounded(共同创立)angel mom, an organization that helps poor orphans who might die without receiving timely medical treatment. angel mom collects funds from wealthy people to provide medical help for the disabled children and finds adoptive parents for them. “we concentrated on seeking financial support for their operations and finding them a family capable of and truly willing to adopt them, ”she said. weeks ago, deng quit her job for the third time in three years. before she quit, she was the chief financial operator in a company with an annual salary of more than 500, 000 yuan. “i couldnt handle the heavy work while taking care of the children at the same time, ”deng said. angel mom now maintains cooperation with more than 15 hospitals across the country. as soon as a child arrives, deng and her partners immediately start seeking financial help from wealthy people through personal relationships or accept assistance from certain charities(慈善机构), such as smile angel foundation, founded in 2006 by chinese singer faye wong and her husband li yapeng to help children with cleft lips. “it usually takes days or even weeks to find someone who would like to donate(捐赠)a sufficient amount if the childs illness doesnt meet the charity funds requirements, ” deng said, adding that six children have passed away, some due to lack of timely medication. “for me, those children mean responsibility. sometimes i wish i could let them go but they are already part of my life, ”deng continued, “i chose a special life, but i dont think im special. ”55. which of the

coast-agatha lee described her reaction as “disbelief” when school board chairwoman sue dickinson called her name last thursday night at flagler auditorium. lee, a second-grade teacher at belle terre elementary school, was named flagler countys teacher of the year today. “i was in such a great group of excellent teachers and i was just shocked. ”lee said in an interview after the announcement. every flagler school names a teacher of the year once a year and those nominees(候选人)are considered for the districts award. that winner, along with winners from the states other districts, is then considered for the florida teacher of the year award, which is announced in july. to be qualified for the teaching award, teachers must encourage continuous learning, show skillfulness in their subject area, use creative teaching strategies(策略), show leadership and create a caring and respectful environment. jill stirling, a kindergarten teacher, flaglers 2010 teacher of the year, said she also met winners from throughout the state to share teaching strategies and the best practices. “i often think of those little people that have made me the teacher i am and the person that i am, ” stirling said. lee, the following new winner, who is now in her thirteenth year of teaching, came to flagler county in 2004 after working in pasco and st. johns counties. she worked at the former

watching their faces when they have that aha moment, ”she said. 59. how did agatha lee feel when she was crowned flagler countys teacher of the year? a. excited. b. astonished. c. satisfied. d. proud.

where the sun never shines, where rainfall is irrelevant(不相干的)and where the climate is always right. the perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light, temperature, wetness, air quality and nutrition. it could be in a new york high-rise or a sprawling complex in the saudi desert. it may be an answer to the worlds food problems. the world is already having trouble feeding itself. half the people on earth live in cities, and nearly half of thoseabout 3 billionare hungry or ill-fed. food prices, currently increasing, are buffeted by dryness, floods and the cost of energy required to plant, harvest and transport. and prices will only get more unstable. climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain. farmers in many parts of the world are already using water available to the last drop. and the world is getting more crowded: by mid-century, the global population will grow from 6. 8 billion to 9 billion. to feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness, or finding ways to completely increase crop output. gertjan meeuws has taken the concept of a greenhouse a step further, growing vegetables and house plants in enclosed(封闭的)and regulated environments. in their research station, water flows into the pans when needed, and the temperature is kept constant. lights go on and off, creating similar day and night, but according to the rhythm of the plant. a building of 100 square meters and layers(层)of plants could provide a daily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables to the entire population of den bosch, about 140, 000 people. their idea is not to grow foods that require much space, like corn or potatoes. here sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful. plants need only specific wavelengths of light to grow. their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions. they use about 90 percent less water than outdoors agriculture. and city farming means producing food near the consumer, and theres no need to transport it long distances. 63. what does paragraph 2 mainly tell us? a. the climate is worse and worse. b. the city people live a hard life. c. the world has difficulty feeding its people. d. the worlds population is increasing fast. 64. the underlined word “buffeted” in paragraph 2 means“”. a. badly affectedb. preventedc. demandedd. well achieved65. it can be inferred from the text that gertjan meeuwss farming. a. helps save sea water a lotb. suits different conditionsc. is similar to greenhouse agricultured. suits the production of corn66. what is the text mainly about? a. development of indoor farming. b. great revolution in farming. c. advantages of indoor farming. d. sunless, rainless indoor farming. edo american children still learn handwriting in school? in the age of the keyboard, some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out. 90% of teachers say they are required to teach handwriting. but studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it. one study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting. some teachers are teaching handwriting by providing instruction for ten to fifteen minutes a day, and then other teachers who basically teach it for sixty to seventy minutes a daywhich really for handwriting is pretty much death. many adults remember learning that wayby copying letters over and over again. todays thinking is that short periods of practice are better. many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself. instead, they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas. after all, that is why we write. handwriting involves two skills. one is legibility, which means forming the letters so they can be read. the other is fluencywriting without having to think about it. fluency continues to develop up until high school. but not everyone masters these skills. teachers commonly report that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting. some people might think handwriting is not important any more because of computers and voice recognition programs. but steve graham at vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school, especially in the early years. american children traditionally first learn to print, and then to write in cursive(连笔, 草书), which connects the letters. but guess what we learned from a spokeswoman for the college board, which administers the sat college admission testmore than 75% of students choose to print their essays on the test rather than write in cursive. 67. we can infer from the first paragraph that. a. teachers spend little time in teaching handwritingb. most teachers attach importance to teaching handwritingc. handwriting teaching is not commonly requiredd. most teachers are at a loss on how to teach handwriting68. which of the following about traditional handwriting in the usa
