27.New study shows that when teachers participate in a training program focused on prosocial (親社會的)classroom behavior,their students are better able to control their emotions,and that children who can regulate emotions are more likely to be academically successful. For the study,which appears in Prevention Science ,researchers looked at more than 100 teachers and 1,817 students from kindergarten to third grade to see if teachers could support students' emotional and behavioral growth through the Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management (IYTCM) program. The program uses videos and training sessions,along with role-playing and coaching,to help teachers learn management skills such as using behavior-specific praise,building positive relationships with students,and considering how to reduce poor behavior.Teachers in the training group increased interactions with students by 64 percent compared with 53 percent for teachers in the control group without the training. "Emotional regulation is the ability to recognize what behavior is appropriate in the present situation,says Wendy Reinke,professor in the College of Education at the University of Missouri. "For example,a student might have difficulty controlling the feeling of anger if he or she becomes annoyed with another student but under this program,the teacher encourages them to move to a different spot in the classroom,effectively teaching them that sometimes stepping away and taking a break is a good way to calm down and manage that feeling." After one school year of using the program in classrooms,students improved their social ability and ability to regulate their emotions.These improvements resulted in an increase in the tests for students in Incredible Years classrooms vs.students in control classrooms.And this classroom management approach can help reduce the risk for struggling learners early on,which could help prevent more accumulative support needs in a child's future.
(1)What do the teachers do in the IYTCM program?
A.Learn how to identify poor behavior. B.Offer the researchers advice on emotional control. C.Take care of kids from kindergarten to third grade. D.Apply different ways to learning how to manage kids. (2)What do Wendy Reinke's words suggest in Para.4?
A.Now it is hard for students to control their anger. B.A calm manner is an effective way to handle problems. C.Few can realize their behavior is unfit for a situation. D.The program will show how to handle troublesome kids. (3)What is the author's attitude towards the training program?
A.Positive. B.Negative. C.Subjective. D.Indifferent. (4)What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Study results of the program are entirely unexpected. B.The program advances the students' academic performance. C.Students in control classrooms can better control their emotions. D.Students change their bad behavior shortly through the program.
28.Chinese-language teacher Xie Fang is excited that one of her former students from Indonesia has been admitted to Beijing Language and Culture University.The 19-year-old student,Alvin Rizqi Adrian,achieved his dream of studying in China with a scholarship provided by the Chinese government. Xie met the boy five years ago when she was selected to teach Chinese at Budi Utama Three Languages National School in Yogyakarta,Indonesia.The school,founded in 2006 by local Chinese,teaches in three languages - Indonesian,English and Chinese.The school has more than 970 primary,middle and high students,half of whom have Chinese ancestry. Xie taught students to speak and comprehend Chinese during her year at the school. "Most Indonesian children start to learn Chinese after they enter primary school," Xie said. " But the textbooks from Singapore seemed relatively difficult for them at that stage. " Xie modified the content of the textbooks to make it easier and more interesting for the Indonesian children to learn Chinese. One student in particular,Alvin Rizqi Adrian,impressed Xie a great deal. "At that time,he was a middle school student.He was so interested in Chinese that he worked very hard to learn and practice," she said.Since 2004,Guangdong has sent 1,000 Chinese teachers to more than 30 Chinese schools in 10 countries and regions. Indonesia has the largest number of Chinese teachers sent from Guangdong,who mainly work in kindergartens,schools and universities founded by overseas Chinese.They usually spend one to two years on the foreign assignment. "Those days in Indonesia made me feel very appreciated.The local people have respect for Chinese teachers," Xie said.She keeps in touch with her Indonesian students through the Internet. "If I had the opportunity to go to Indonesia to teach again,I would be very happy to see the children improve their Chinese," Xie said.

29."Farm to table" is the name of a movement that encourages people to eat locally grown food.The farm-to-table idea has become more popular in recent years.But there is also a movement that brings "table to farm".Its purpose is to connect people to the land and to honor local farmers by creating a sort of restaurant without walls.

Jim Denevan's brother is a farmer and he himself is a cjye.aif.He thought that the idea of a meal served right on the farm made sense,though not everyone agreed. "But I wanted to make the idea work,so I decided to cross the country," said Denevan. "I went all the way across the United States and set the table on farms,ranches(大牧場) and beaches,and all the places where food came from. " "This kind of event connects us with a lot of enthusiastic people,people that we can form relationships with," said Matt Szechenyi,who operates Briars Farm. The tour of the farm ends at the dinner table.The meats in the meal come from Matt Szechenyi's farm.The vegetables come from nearby farms.Guests and local farmers sit together. Annoica Ingram came with a friend. "The food is wonderful.I appreciate their hard work.I see everything they have to do to take care of the animals and make sure they are well-cared-for.Without them,I think,we'll have big problems," she said.

30.We travel the world to experience an unfamiliar culture.It's an added bonus when the destination happens to be home to several cultures,thanks to its diverse population. Toronto Toronto happens to be one of the most diverse in the world.In fact,nearly half of Toronto's residents were born in another country.This cultural mix is most apparent in the city's community pockets,including Chinatown,Greektown,Little Italy etc.And although English is most widely spoken here,the streets are constantly filled with over 140 different languages. Los Angeles Los Angeles is known and loved for its varied landscape,which offers opportunities to swim at the beach,hike in the park and explore a lively city all on the same day.That diversity also extends to its population--people from approximately 140 countries,speaking 86 different languages call the City of Angeles home where visitors can get a taste of multicultural mix. Sydney English-speaking visitors to Sydney won't have any trouble buying their tickets to the Opera House or ordering up some Aussie barbecue,as it' s the main language used here.That said,it's not the only language you may overhear.Approximately 250 different dialects are spoken in this Australian city.This makes sense,given that 40 percent of the population were born overseas. Singapore Singapore might be small,but it packs in a lot of diversity.The Southeast Asian destination has four official languages--English,Malay,Mandarin and Tamil--and approximately 40 percent of its population were born abroad.

31.The Power of Silence Once a farmer lost his precious watch while working in his bar .It may have appeared as an ordinary watch to others,but held a deep sentimental value for it. After searching high and low among the hay for a long time,the old farmer got exhausted.(The tired farmer did not want to give up the search for his watch and requested a group of children playing outside the bar to jye.ailp.He promised an attractive reward for the person who can find his beloved watch.

Just when the farmer was closing the door,a little boy came up to him and requested the farmer-to give him another chance.-The farmer did not want to miss any chance of finding the watch so let the little boy in the barn. After a little while the little boy came out with the watch in his hand.The farmer was happily surprised and asked how the boy succeeded n getting the watch while everyone including him had failed. The boy replied "just sat there fried listening to the ticking of the watch In silence,it was much easier to listen to it and direct the search in the direction of the sound.
