Anita's New Start Even though it was a beautiful spring day, Anita felt sad as she walked along the beach after school. Her family had moved to the USA three weeks earlier for her father's new job. Anita missed her old home in Mexico. She wanted to eat her grandmother's bread and play with her cousin. Anita thought about her new life in Texas. She thought she would never learn this new language - everyone spoke so fast. How could she make new friends if she couldn't even talk to people? "I'm too shy to make new friends anyway," she thought, feeling disheartened. Anita decided to try something her mother had taught her. Her mother had said, "Anita, whenever you're sad, take a few deep breaths and think about something that makes you happy." Then Anita took a deep breath. Suddenly a seagull (海鸥) called overhead. She remembered that she had saved some biscuits from lunch. She quickly threw a biscuit into the air. As the gull caught the biscuit in its mouth, she laughed. Just then, another gull landed near her and stood frozen. Anita noticed its wing was injured. She wanted to help, but didn't know what to do. At that moment Anita saw a man and a group of children in the distance. She recognized the man as Mr. Turner, a teacher at her school. He was pointing to something and all the children in the science club were listening to him. Anita decided that there was no time to be shy. She began walking toward the group. Anita took a deep breath. "Hello," she said quietly. When Mr. Turner looked up, she pointed toward the gull and begged, "Come, please! Hello, Anita. What's wrong?" Anita pointed again toward the bird. Mr. Turner gestured to the group. "Come on, everyone. Let's see what Anita has found." As the group followed Anita, she noticed a girl from her class.

Why does cream go bad faster than butter? Some researchers think they have the answer, and it comes down to the structure of the food, not its chemical composition-a finding that could help break away from some chemicals. Cream and butter contain pretty much the same things, so why cream should go bad much faster has been a problem. Both are small globules (小球) of one liquid which spreads throughout another. The difference lies in what's in the globules and what's in the surrounding liquid, says Brocklehurst, who led the research. In cream, fatty globules drift about in a sea of water. In butter, globules of a watery roads are locked away in a sea of fat. The bacteria (细菌) which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery areas of the mixture. "This means that in cream, the bacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture," he says, "when in butter, the bacteria are locked away in locked places buried deep in the sea of fat. Trapped in this way, those colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out. They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products." "In butter, you get a self-limiting system which stops the bacteria growing." says Brocklehurst. The researchers are already working with food companies eager to see if their products can be made to stand bacterial attack through changes of the food's structure. Brocklehurst believes it will be possible to make something used in salad cream, for instance, more like that in butter. The key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream liquid and not turning it into a solid state. 【1】The significance of Brocklehurst's research is that __________. A.it discovered small globules in both cream and butter B.it suggested a way to keep some foods fresh without using some chemicals C.it showed the secret of how bacteria increase in cream and butter D.it found that cream and butter share the same chemical composition 【2】According to Brocklehurst, we can keep cream fresh by __________. A.changing its structure B.killing the bacteria C.reducing its water D.removing its fat 【3】The underlined word "colonies" in the first paragraph refers to __________. A.tiny globules B.watery regions C.the surrounding liquid D.bacteria society 【4】Commercial use of the research finding will be possible if salad cream can be made to stand bacterial attack _____. A.by changing its chemical composition B.by turning it into a solid lump (肿块) C.while its liquid form remains D.while keeping its structure unchanged |

Often people receive a guitar, mandolin, or some other musical instrument as a birthday or Christmas gift. There's joy everywhere. The giver of the gift knows how much the receiver wants to learn this instrument and the receiver is actually holding it in his hands instead of longing for it through the shop window. Finding an instructor that fits into a busy work schedule is hard enough, but once you decide on a lesson plan, then you must consider the practice time, how to practice, what to practice—and let's face it...not all people learn something the same way. So in order to learn a musical instrument, how much practice time is enough and what kind of practice is right for you? There is no set amount of time that anyone should practice a musical instrument. When I was in programming classes, I could have studied nightly for 5 hours each night. It would have taken me years to learn the art of computer programming. Though I'm attracted by the systematic logic of it, my talent is towards another thing. However, on the other hand, if I spent an hour every couple days with a passionate hobby like playing the violin, not only would the time fly quickly...I'd also be learning at a much greater speed since the built-in passion is the motivation for advancement. So as much as it's important to practice, a step back is to first find the harmonious instrument that fits you as a person; as development of your personality. If you're learning the guitar because it's cool....obviously that's the modern-day mindset, however, you might not be actually linking your talent for musical satisfaction with your most creative advantages you have to offer. It's been my experience that every person has a certain level of musical talent. My pleasant challenge has been to assist them in this adventure and actually locate their best abilities as quickly as possible. Then and only then can we match learners with instruments and truly begin a fun and exciting walk down the road of happiness and contentment, where music, ability, personality and soul all meet. Once this piece of the mystery puzzle is in place, I've never had to work at motivating a learner to practice... 【1】In the author's opinion, which of the following is the most important when learning a musical instrument? A. The amount of time for practice. B. A scientific learning method. C. A good music instructor. D. The strong fondness for music. 【2】In paragraph 3, how does the author try to make readers accept her opinion? A. By talking about her personal experiences. B. By comparing two different learning goals. C. By pointing out the faults in what she does. D. By discussing the advantage of music learning. 【3】What do we know about the author? A. She writes pop music. B. She's a music instructor. C. She advertises for music lesson. D. She's a musical instrument collector. 【4】Which of these questions does the passage answer? A. Does practice make perfect? B. Does talent make a difference? C. Does a lesson plan really fit you? D. Does hard work make up for lack of talent? |
