Snow may fall, but students wont be able to spend the days sledding(滑雪橇). Classes will continue online. Officials say

24、that holding electronic workdays(e-days) will help students keep up with their studies. It will also prevent requiring students to make up schooldays later in June.Which would you prefer: spending a cold day on a computer, or sitting in school in June when you should be on vacation? Jordan Dewar, a

25、student reporter, holds the opinion that having online work on a snow day is the better choice. “You would be working on a day that you already planned on having schoolwork.”“Having extra days of school in summer can interfere with(妨碍) families vacation plans. Besides, what if your school does not h

26、ave air-conditioning? Imagine sweating through seven hours at school on a hot June day when you could have been relaxing by a pool with your family. Doesnt an e-day sound better than that?” Jordan Dewar said.For some students, it would be easier to concentrate(专注) on e-days than on makeup days. “You

27、 can do a little work online, go play, and then come back later,” says Rachel Meyers, 12. “But on June days you would just have to sit there for seven hours, thinking about how you could be outside, so you lose focus.”There are some students arguing that its not fair to ditch snow days, however. The

28、y say that snow days give them a much-needed break. They also note that missing a day here and there is not enough to put them behind. Most students in Silver Valley School think one problem of e-days is that sometimes siblings(兄弟姐妹们) have to share computers at home. In addition, it punishes the stu

29、dents who dont have computers at home. When school starts again after e-days, these students will be left behind and have to work double-time to catch up with others.“School budget cuts(预算削减) across the country are expected to continue into the 2017-2018 school year.” the American Association of Sch

30、ool Administrators(AASA) Web site states. “The school wouldnt be able to afford both online classes and taking care of the school,” Austin Krewson, an eighth grader, says.Moreover, electricity is likely to be cut off during snowstorms.

Pick it up and put it in your bag. ” Thomas said, “It isnt worth the trouble.” His father said nothing but picked it up himself. When they got to a nearby town, they had a rest. T

39、here the farmer sold the horseshoe and with the few pennies he bought some cherries(樱桃).The father and the son continued their way.

40、d a cherry on the ground and Thomas picked it up quickly and ate it. After a while, his father dropped another cherry and once again, his son lost no time in picking it up and putting it in his mouth.And so they went on. The old farmer dropped the cherries and the son picked them up. When Thomas had

41、 eaten up all the cherries, his father said to him, “My dear son, if you had bent(弯腰)down early to pick up that horseshoe, it would not have been necessary for you to bend so many times for the cherries.

The cameras can tell the owners if someone has entered. But the cameras do not know whether the person is a family member, a friend, a postman or a criminal

45、 (罪犯).But a new camera made by a French company can recognize (辨别出) faces. It can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school, or that the mail has been sent to their home. It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home. When family members enter a home, the smart

46、camera “recognizes” them and sends information to the owners phone. The owner can choose to see the video then or later. But if an unknown person enters a home, the camera will send a warning sound on the owners phone.This is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Damien. He lives

47、 in Paris.“On a Friday I was at work, having a big monthly meeting when my phone moved. At first I told myself Oh, it must be a wrong warn, but my phone was telling me there was a face that the camera did not recognize. Something was happening in my house!”“I saw a person I did not know with his sho

48、es on, which is not allowed in my apartment (公寓). I watched it on the video. I felt quite surprised. I hurried back home as fast as possible and called the police on the way. Thanks to the smart camera, the criminal was caught soon,” said Damien.1The new smart camera is different from the ones in ma

Here is how schools and parents can encourage this importa

51、nt skill in children.If Dick Drew had listened to his boss in 1925, we might not have an important product: a new type of tape. Drew worked for the Minnesota Mining Company. At work he developed a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. But his boss told him not to think more about t

52、he idea. Finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape, which now is used everywhere by many people. And his old company learned from its mistake. Now it encourages people to spend 15 percent of their work time just thinking and developing new ideas.Creativity is not something one is just born

53、 with, nor is it necessarily a character of high intelligence (智慧). Just because a person is highly intelligent does not mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter of using the resources one has to produce new ideas that are good for something.Unluckily, schools have not tried to enco

54、urage creativity. With strong attention to test results and the development of reading, writing and mathematical skills, many educators give up creativity for correct answers. The result is that children can give back information but cant recognize ways to use it in new situations. They may know the

55、 rules correctly, but they are unable to use them to work out practical problems.It is important to give children choices. From the earliest age, children should be allowed to make decisions and understand their results. Even if its choosing between two kinds of food for lunch, decision-making helps

56、 thinking skills. As children grow older, parents should let their children decide how to use their time or spend their money, but not help them too much if they make the wrong decision. The child may have a hard time, but that is all right. This is because the most important character of creative p

57、eople is a very strong desire (欲望) to find a way out of trouble.1What did the company where Dick Drew work learn from its mistake?AThey encouraged people to work a longer time.BThey discouraged (阻碍) people to think freely.CThey asked people to spend all their work time developing new ideas.DThey encouraged people to spend some of
