A
Every Tuesday, my daughters have two hours of softball practice. This is when I head around the corner to the library and work on my weekly class newsletter, grade papers and visit HelpOthers.
I also do acts of kindness. I have put homemade smile cards in library books and also left money with a 'please enjoy this random act of kindness' note at the reference desk to pay someone's late fines (罚款).
Tonight, I attached(贴上) a homemade smile card to a small bag of chocolates. As I walked into the library, I headed to my usual area near the reference desk and placed the bag on a table. I sat in a chair near the table and did some work.
It was so interesting how quickly the library workers noticed! I heard some say, "Hey, did you see that?" as they pointed to the chocolate. The reference worker who I had given the money to pay fines was there tonight working. She noticed me and the familiar blue homemade smile card and was whispering to explain what I had done previously.
For forty-five minutes, I would type and look up. It was interesting to watch as people slowed to read the card, but kept going. I think many felt uncomfortable taking it because it was out in the open. I figured it might take some time, and then I dove into(潜心) grading papers.
At the end of an hour and half, I packed up to get the girls. As I looked up, I noticed the chocolate was gone! How did I possibly miss someone taking it?
Then I was left wondering—man or woman, young or old, I'll never know. But I do hope they enjoyed it, and I'm so glad they took it.
As I usually do, I visited briefly with the softball moms at the end of practice. I shared the exciting news about my kindness article and told them about the library acts of kindness. I've now come to think of softball night as Kindness Tuesday.

In recent years, technology has advanced significantly. The latest and most up-to-date devices can be spotted almost anywhere and everywhere. What was once intended to contact people now works as a game center, social network and educator. Every day, more and more apps and sites are making their debut.
Social networking apps have become a huge hit especially with the teenage generation. Sites like Twitter, Instagram, Vine, Keek and Facebook are a few of the most popular social networks. Bridgeport sophomore(大二学生) Emily Oldaker said, “ Social networks allow me to keep in touch with long-distance family members and friends and share pictures that will hold all my memories as a teenager.”
Aside from social networking, technology can be extremely useful in the education department. Many schools have become more in touch with technology allowing iPads in the classroom. Many teachers see this as a distraction but several others find this a great new way of teaching. Many AP classes distribute iPads to students foe their work and research in depth.
Robert C. Byrd Ap language teacher Terri Boggs commented on the use of iPads in the classroom, “ I think iPads are very valuable because I can assign specific applications that are useful in helping the development of their analysis and writing skills. They are also good hands-on tools.”
Using iPads in class allows students to access the Internet from their desks, making in-class assignments more fun and quicker for students. iPads also make homework assignments easier to compete with resources at the fingertips.
“ I like having an iPad for my classes. I can use it for many different things like completing my homework, research and even note-taking. I find it very useful and helpful,” Robert C. Byrd junior Sierra Davis said.
Technology may have faults but ultimately the pros outweigh the cons. Technology in classrooms will continue to grow as our world advances.
28. The underlined word “debut” in the first paragraph means __________.
A. development B. appearance C. disadvantage D. position
29. In Emily Oldaker’s opinion, the networking apps can help people in ________.
A. getting informed of advanced technology B. building up their interest in their studies
C. paying attention to what they are doing D. contacting their friends living far away
30. What does Terri Boggs think of iPads?
A. They leave students much distracted in class B. Students can do scientific research with them
C. They are useful in improving students’ skills D. Students can use them to pass the boring time
31. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.
A. students depend on iPads heavily B. iPads can have much influence on homework
C. technology is influencing every corner of the world
D. there are more disadvantages in modern technology

The illegal ivory trade has been a major problem in Africa for decades. Poachers(偷猎者) and hunters have killed hundreds of thousands of elephants to obtain ivory. Now, affected areas are taking action. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) announced on Wednesday key African states where poaching takes place have promised to stop the ivory trade to protect Africa’s elephants.
Over the past few days, top officials and experts from 30 states met at the African Elephant Summit. The conference, organized by the IUCN and the government of Botswana, was held in Gaborone, Botswana.
Conversation efforts will include China and Thailand, where much of the ivory is sent. “ Now is the time for Africa and Asia to join forces to protect this universally valued species,” said Botswana President Ian Khama.
In the 1980s, as many as 1 million elephants across Africa were killed for their ivory tusks. This continued until 1989, when the Convention on International Trade in Species (CITES) voted to ban all trade in ivory. With trade choked off, demand for ivory fell. Elephant populations slowly began to increase. However, this progress was short-lived.
According to the IUCN, 2011 saw the highest levels of poaching and illegal ivory trading in at least 16 years. Around 25,000 elephants were killed in Africa that year. Preliminary data from the IUCN shows even higher levels of illegal trade may have been reached in 2013. “With about 22,000 elephants illegally killed in 2012, we continue to face a critical situation,” said John E. Scanlon, CITES Secretary-General. “Current elephant poaching in Africa remains far too high, and could soon lead to local extinctions if the present killing rate continues.”
At the African Elephant Summit, key African states where elephants make their home agreed to develop a “zero-tolerance attitude” towards poaching. The deal calls for maximum sentences for poachers and hunters, and increased cooperation between affected states. Officials are determined to classifying wildlife trading as a serious crime — and to making sure that the people who commit it are punished. All participants at the conference agreed to sign the deal. With these states coming together, there may yet be hope for elephants.
32. The purpose of holding the African Elephant Summit is to _______.
A. prevent elephants from being poached
B. make new laws to punish poachers
C. collect money for elephants’ protection
D. call for African countries to save elephants
33. Why are China and Thailand mentioned in the text?
A. Elephants need protecting in these two countries.
B. The ivory is illegal sold in these two countries.
C. They know how to protect wildlife like elephants.
D. They prefer jewelry and other items made of ivory.
34. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?
A. The governments do nothing to protect animals.
B. Elephants poaching in Africa is out of control.
C. A large number of elephants have been killed.
D. Illegal ivory trading is to blame for the elephants’ extinction.
35. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Elephants are dying. B. New Hope for Elephants.
C. Elephants need our help. D. Wildlife Protection in Africa

Why doesn’t the conductor face the audience? 36 As the only person with his back to the audience, the conductor is a figure who is bathed in the spotlight, but his complex work requires a high degree of musical skill, as well as an ability to extract what he desires out of the goup artists he leads — his orchestra.
37 A person may become a conductor without graduating from the conducting department of a music school or studying in any kind of conductor’s training program. However, becoming the conductor of a famous orchestra requires a great deal more than what is needed merely to join an orchestra.
38 These naturally examine a conductor’s technique and musical interpretation while he conducts an orchestra through a prepared piece of music, but they also involve a sight-reding element. 39 The conductor then has to sit in a room and memorize the piece before coming out and leading the orchestra through the piece by memory. Not only does the conductor have to make his arm and hand motion properly, and signal all the entrances of each instrument, he has to point out intentional mistakes made by the orchestra members on the spot.
The least capabilities a conductor must have are: The ability to memorize an entire score. A good ear for distinguishing correct notes among the music of the entire orchestra. 40 .
Of the conductors that meet these requirements, those with better musical insight and a higher level charisma(魅力)will succeed.
A. The need for a common musical standard becomes necessary.
B. The ability to lead a group of professional musicians.
C. There are many conducting competitions.
D. For this, the score of music is given to the conductor on site.
E. This is how the role of the conductor came to be established.
F. The role of the conductor is in fact not well understood.
G. There are no examinations for becoming a conductor.
