It is a typical suburban town, perfect for raising children away from the fast pace of the city. How

11、ever, some Ridgewood kids feel as upset as if they were on the citys busy streets. In addition to hours of homework, Ridgewoods children are occupied with afterschool activities from swimming to piano to religious classes.Out of desperation one day, the town decided to schedule another activity. Thi

12、s one was called “Ridgewood Family Night Ready, Set, Relax!” Instead of schedules filled with sports, music, or overtime at the office, some of the towns 25,000 residents decided to take the night off and stay home. For a few months before Family Night, a committee of volunteers worked hard to sprea

13、d the word. Younger students took “Save the Date for Me” leaflets home to their parents. The mayor issued a statement, and schools and clubs agreed to cancel homework and meetings so families could relax and be together.The tension between a hope for a more relaxed lifestyle and the knowledge that t

14、he benchmark for success has been raised in recent years weighs heavily on the minds of the townspeople. Some parents like to recall a different kind of childhood, one without so many scheduled afterschool activities. However, these same parents feel obliged to make sure their children are prepared

15、to survive in todays high-pressure work environment. They are afraid that any gap in their childrens physical or intellectual development might mean they wont be admitted to the “right” universities and wont succeed in a more and more competitive world.Nevertheless, it seems that Family Night worked

16、, at least to a point. Cars moved easily around Ridgewoods normally busy downtown streets, and stores and restaurants saw a drop in business. Some families ate supper together for the first time in months.Initially, there was great hope of taking back their lives. But sadly, few families believe tha

17、t one night will change their lives. Many are sure that they will fall back into the habit of over-scheduling their children to be overachieving adults.1、The writer describes Ridgewood as a town where _.Aresidents take little notice of educationBchildren are stressful and over expectedCparents are c

The National Center for EducationalStatistics reported that U.S. colleges and universities received more than 9 million ap

22、plications between 2013 and 2014. The schools admitted more than 5 million students in that time.But a new report says that the problem is not about the number of students that are being admitted, but rather how students are selected. The Harvard School of Graduate Education, along with 80 other sch

23、ools and organizations, released the report in January 2016, called “Turing the Tide-Making Caring Common”. The report argues that the process schools use to choose students causes major problems.David Hawkins, theExecutiveDirector for Educational Policy, says that most colleges and universities req

24、uire many things from students when they apply. Schools usually ask for an essay describing a students interests or why they want to study at that school. The schools also ask for letters from teachers or other responsible adults describing why a student is a good candidate. But, Hawkins says, the a

25、rea that schools are most concerned with a students high school grades and standardizedtest results.The report suggests that paying attention to academic success over other qualities works well for some students but hurts others. In addition, academic success is not the most important quality a stud

26、ent should have. More attention should be paid to showing whether or not a student wants to do good in the world. The report also suggests that schools should ask for evidence that students care about other people. Moving attention away from academic ability will make process less about competition,

27、 the report says. Students will feel less stress about meeting higher and higher expectation.But the report does have its critics. Bob Schaeffer, Public Education Director, said that every few years, someone makes the same argument for change. He said that no real change has happened yet and that ev

28、en many of the schools that agree with the report still make no changes. “Many of the institutions that have supported the findings in the report are the very institutions that have the most competitive admission processes in the country, Schaeffer said.1、What is the problem of the admission process

30、applicants except ?ATheir reasons to attend the school.BA description of their interests.CRecommendation letters from adultsDEvidence that students care about others3、What does the authors attitude to the report of the admission process?.ASupportive. BDoubtful CNeutral DNegative4、The critic, Bob Sch

32、ge (保护区)on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in USA, Hes one of the relatively few new hunters who officials hope will help stop a nearly four-decade decline nationally in what has become a hobby for fewer than 5 percent of Americans.Natural resources and wildlife, officials in Maryland are encouraging

33、hunting of deer, turkeys and some other wild animals, which is believed to be good for the environment. Without hunting, they say, sika deer will overpopulate the wildlife refuge and theyll overeat the bushes and other plants that provide important habitat for birds. On the western shore of the Ches

34、apeake Bay, hunting is also important to prevent the spread of diseases such as Lyme.In many families, the hunting tradition has been handed down for generations But as longtime sportsmen age and children lose interest, the number of hunters in the United States fell by 2 million, from 2011 to 2018,

35、 to about 11 million.“Everything is changing. Kids are growing up in front of video games and computers instead of going hunting.” said Chris Markin, a hunting specialist for the state natural resources department. “Adults usually focus on working and providing for their families. Those pressures ar

36、e preventing many other potential hunters from going out, and from raising the next generation of hunters.”To avoid such a decline, a new approach is needed. Government agencies and nonprofit groups are now launching mentoring (指导) programs to train more hunters, which not only helps preserve an ind

37、ustry and a culture but also means more protection for wildlife and their habitats through deer population control and investment.Luckily, there are those still eager to learn, like Majid. He was just looking for an outdoor hobby he could share with his children when he came across the mentors-hip p

41、hate small talk! the minute you walk into a party? If so, you might be an introvert (内向的人). Introverts hate to chat about small subjects with people. They are fine when you talk one on one but seem to get lost in the crowd when theres a group around.If youre talking to an introvert, you might find t

42、hat your first few conversations go one of two ways. Either theyll seem to get bored and not say much or theyll seem to skate over small talk in favor of more in-depth topics. What you need to know is that the introvert is not being rude. Its just that they dont like small talk. Heres why.Small talk

43、 serves as a gateway toward deeper conversation. Some introverts dont realize that small talk will actually help them get to the bigger topics. You dont need to stay on small talk forever. However, sometimes introverts feel that even the short amount of time it takes to get into the real conversatio

44、n is a waste of time. Small talk is very fast. Someone says something and thisshould be followed up with a quick response. But introverts like to chew on their words before saying them aloud. Before they answer, theyll mull over different thoughts.Small talk by its very nature invites more people to

45、 join in. The more people who join theconversation, the more the introvert will tend to step back. As a result, theyll be quiet. Small talk is about throwing out subjects in the hope that one or more of them can be turned into a common point of interest.The listening involved with small talk is not

46、in-depth. The purpose is about listening lightly so you can figure out the right topics to spend some time on.

54、ernment offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking (萎缩)brainsas the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.Matsuzawas findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking.
