It_is_worthwhile_to_do/doing the experiment.Ⅴ.阅读理解About 15 years ago, when my children were still inelementary school, I was very active in the Parent TeacherAssociation. At one of the monthly meetings the topic ofdiscussion was the new curriculum (课程) that the state ofMichigan was presenting. Many concerns were voiced at that meeting, and one of them was my own. My concern was that the children were being taught things that were once taught at a much later age.Let's face it: children today have to learn and adapt to (适应) a more technological society, one where if you're not a peak performer you're just not well received. Some say that the children of today have it so much easier than 10-20 years ago. They're given so much more, not having to work for their toys and little extras. They sit all day long in front of a computer playing games ... How hard can that be?I, for one, think that today's child is missing out on so many wonderful experiences because of technology. What type of people skills are they learning? They can thumbtype faster than any other generation before them, but they can't pick up the phone and have a really deep conversation.There is an elementary school not far behind my home and I used to see children on the playground every day. Weekdays and weekends, there would be children playing, shouting with joy. But now I don't see many children there after school, nor on the weekend. Has the playground gone from our children's life?I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw_a_shoe_at me whenI say play doesn't always need to have a purpose. And it doesn't always have to havea teaching module included. To compete in today's world, the children have to be experts at multitasking (多任务处理), and on top of their game at all times. I, forone, think this is a shame.语篇解读:本文是议论文。
现在的孩子生活富足,却缺少适当的体育锻炼和玩耍;沉迷于科技,却缺少跟人交流的能力。

Learning Is an Honor As is indicated in the picture, an adolescent is telling [双宾语] his grandfather a good news - he can go to a state-class university with his University Admission Report, while his grandpa has also received his own Admission Report of the university for the elder. How exciting and encouraging it is! Look at this picture, we ponder the following implication: learning is an honor! Why so? In this day and age, knowledge of human beings is advancing at an unprecedented rate in a multitude of areas. Since the advent of the information era, education has been playing a pivotal role in individual development. We will not be abandoned by the society if we keep learning.

Unit 15 Learning能力提升题组训练(A)Ⅰ.阅读理解In 1967,a 20-year-old student at Syracuse University became the first woman to officially participate in the Boston Marathon.Fifty years later,Kathrine Switzer crossed the finish line of the Boston Marathon wearing the same number.Switzer’s marathon in 1967 became historic because she was the first woman to complete the all-male race as an official participant.She registered as “K.V.Switzer” to hide her sex.A few miles into the race,an official tried to remove Switzer from the race.“Naturally I turned my head around quickly and looked square into the most unpleasant face I’d ever seen.A huge man with bared teeth was set to pounce(猛扑),and before I could react he grabbed my shoulder,screaming,‘Get the hell out of my race and give me those numbers!’”she wrote in her memoir (回忆录).Switzer finished the race in four hours and 20 minutes,but would later be disqualified and officially forced to leave from the Amateur Athletic Union.Plenty has changed in running since 1967,thanks to Switzer’s efforts.Since 1972,women are welcome in the Boston Marathon and other major races.On Monday,the 70-year-old finished the Boston Marathon only a little slower,in 4∶44∶31.Her number was retired after the race—just the second number that the marathon has retired.Before her start,she was given the honor of firing the gun for the women’s top runners.“In 1967,few would have believed that marathon running would someday attract millions of women,become an appealing event in the Olympics and on the streets of major cities,help transform views of women’s physical ability and help redefine their economic roles in traditional cultures,” Switzer wrote.“We’ve come a light year but we still have a long way to go.”1.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.Switzer’s Boston Marathon results.B.Switzer’s being removed from the race.C.Switzer’s hiding her sex in registration.D.Switzer’s experience in the Boston Marathon.2.Why was Switzer treated that way by the Amateur Athletic Union?A.She lacked proper training in marathon race.B.They found her quarrelling with the official.C.She had little experience in the long race.D.They had discrimination against women.3.Why was Switzer’s number retired after the race?A.She performed poorly in the race.B.Nobody wanted to use the number any more.C.She was the second retired athlete in marathon.D.They honored her contributions to women marathon.4.What’s Switzer’s attitude towards women marathon?A.Optimistic.B.Disappointed.C.Doubtful.D.Unclear.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。
