After the tears, let’s focus on dorm safety
It was reported that on November 14, a tragedy occurred in a girls’ dormitory of the Shanghai Business School. Four girls jumped from their sixth-floor balcony in an attempt to escape a fire, and lost their lives.
People expressed their sympathy after hearing the tragedy. In my opinion, this incident reflects a lack of awareness of safety proceres. Both the college and the students are responsible for it. On one hand, we students should learn to deal with an emergency calmly in daily life. If there is a crisis, we are supposed to remain calm, ensure we are safe and then call for help.
On the other hand, it is the school authorities’ obligation to take safety measures for students living in a campus. Furthermore, more lectures should be held on safety to enhance students’ awareness of the issue.
In short, to avoid similar tragedies, both sides must work together.

They are given food freely by visitors . They usually throw food to them , and don’ think about at all whether the food is right or not . Some of the peacocks became ill , some even died after eating the bad food given by the visitors.
I’m sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the birds , but don’t realize (意识到) that they may be doing them harm (伤害).

An owl is a bird with very large eyes. Those eyes make the owl look clever. The owl can not move its eyes freely as people can. It can only look straight ahead (朝前). If it wants to look at both sides, it must turn its neck.

The three sons thanked the old man and took his camel. Now they found it was easy to do as their father wished, The oldest took half- that was nine camels; the second took one-third, that was six; and the youngest took one-ninth, that was two.

We know mosquitoes very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.
No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide if she loves you. She? Yes, she. The male mosquito doesn’t bite! Only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn’t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others!
If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. When the itch begins, she has flown away.

Do you know why different animals or pests(昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收获)time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人) cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
( )56.From the passage we learn that locusts________.
A. are small animals
B. are easily found by birds
C. are dangerous to their enemies
D. change their colours to protect themselves
( )57.How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?
A. They run away quickly.
B. They have the colours much like their enemies.
C. They hide themselves by day and appear at night.
D. They have to move quietly.
( )58.Bears and lions can keep safe because________.

B. they move quietly
C. they like brown and grey colours
D. they live in forests
( )59.Why can the kind of fish live up to now?

Because the liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies.

The Malian army backed by French
forces has repelled an attack by
Islamist militants in the northern
city of Timbuktu. French troops pushed
the militants out of the city
earlier this year, but sporatic
fighting has continued. Tomma Fessy
reports from Bamako.
What happened is that a group
of Jihadists managed to infiltrate the
town over night. A long fire
fight lasted hours overnight between
the Jihad fighters and the Malian
army. It's only when the French
intervenes on the ground and by
the air according to the residents
there that the battle was taken
to an end this afternoon. A
Malian officer I spoke to over
the phone told me that he was
able to confirm that death of
at least 8 Jihad fighters. And he
told me that one Malian soldier
was also killed in the fierce
fighting this afternoon, and four
others wounded.
Nigerian troops say they've
killed 14 suspected members of the
Islamist rebel group Boko Haram in
a raid on a building in the
northern city of Kano. A military
spokesman said a soldier was killed
in the raid and a potential
suicide bomber was arrested. From
Lagos, here's Tomi Oladipo.
Residents in some parts of Kano
said they heard explosions and gunfire
as the soldiers fought Islamist
militants on Sunday morning. A
military spokesman says security forces
found several weapons belonging to the
extremists including a car loaded with
explosives, possibly to be used for
an Easter Sunday attack. There's
been no independent confirmation of
the details of this clash. In
the past major Christian holidays in
northern Nigeria have been blacked by
bomb attacks particularly targeting churches.
Much of the violence across the
region has been blamed on the
radical Boko Haram sect.
Doctors in South Africa reporting
a further improvement in the condition
of the former president Nelson
Mandela. President Jacob Zuma thanked
that thousands of people who prayed
for the former leader at various
Easter church services over the
weekend. From Johannesburg, here's
Peter Biles.
A statement from the South
African presidency said Nelson Mandela
had had a restful day and was
continuing to receive treatment for
his lung infection. The government in
Pretoria says it's satisfied that
he's getting the best possible
medical care to enable his recovery
and comfort. And doctors have reported
a further improvement after four days
in hospital. They've not said
how serious Mr. Mandela's condition
is. But there is obvious concern.
He's 94 years old, and this is
his third stay in hospital since
last December.
A day of national mourning has
been declared on the India Ocean
island of Mauritius after 11 people
died in severe floods. Torrential rain
hit the capital Port Louis on
Saturday night. Water levels have now
receded, but many buildings have been
flooded. Residents expressed anger at
the authorities have not done more
to help them cope. They said
roads were blocked, trees had fallen,
and there's mud everywhere. Others
reported shortages of food, water and
electricity.

world news from the BBC
The Syrian government has accused
rebels of setting fire to three
oil wells in the east of the
country, causing a loss of nearly
5,000 barrels of oil a day. Syria
state news agency says the wells
were set ablaze following a dispute
between the rebels about how to
divide the oil. The government of
president Assad has lost control of
large parts of eastern Syria where
most of the oil fields
located.
The self-claim president of the
Central African Republic Michel Djotodia
has named his caretaker government.
Rebels and the members of the
former opposition will make up most
of the cabinet. Although, there'll
be one member was linked to the
ousted president Francois Bozize.
Mr.Djotodia will take on the
role of Defense Minister, as well
as being president. The rebels seized
power in a coup last week.
Pope Francis has used his first
Easter Sunday message to call for
peace around the world. In an
address to tens of thousands of
people in St. Peter Square in
Rome, the new pontiff appealed for
a diplomatic solution on the Korean
Peninsula. He also mentioned conflicts
in the Middle East and Africa.
These people in St. Peter Square
gave their reactions to the
Pope's message.
We want to come to be, to
get the blessing from the Pope
and to feel the love and
community here today. That's all
we did. And we are hoping that
this would be a new sign for
world peace.
I listened to the Pope's
reaching. And I attended the service.
I think it reminds me of the
younger generation. I often believe
that there'll be peace. And if
older brought in the same way
we serve in God and treating
the younger generation to give them
peace and love.

在法军的配合下,马里军队在北部城镇延巴克图击退了伊斯兰激进分子发动的攻击。法军在今年早些时候将激进分子驱逐出该城镇,但仍存在一些零星的战斗。汤马•费西从巴马科发回报道。
一群伊斯兰圣战者试图连夜潜入该城镇。一场在夜间持续了几个小时的交火在伊斯兰圣战者与马里军队之间展开。根据当地居民所说,在法国通过地面和空中行动进行干预后,这场战斗在下午终于结束。一位马里官员在电话中向我提到,他能确认的是至少有八名伊斯兰圣战者死亡。他还说道,在下午激烈的战斗中,一位马里士兵丧生,另有四人受伤。

我们今天来这里希望得到教皇的庇佑,感受这里的爱和团结,这是过去我们在这里所做的。我们希望这是一个世界和平的征兆。
我聆听了教皇的讲话,也参加了仪式。我认为,这提醒我们注意年轻的一代。我一直相信世界一定会和平。如果年长的一代能把忠于上帝的理念传承到年轻的一代,他们一定会获得爱与和平。

I typically do the crossword puzzle first and it is in the Sports page of the Nashua Telegraph ..usually.. so I will say that I like "the crossword page" best.
I'm old fashioned in the way that enjoy getting my news from an actual newspaper so I read the entire paper usually and the order I read the different sections varies but might typically go; Front page, Local news page, Sports page, Classifieds and Entertainment pages.. but this is far from set, it's very fluid. One day I might be interested in a local topic and go for that page first another day I might need to see the Red Sox score so I read sports page first etc..The only thing that remains constant is that I will read the whole newspaper if I have it.

I usually start with the obits, then move on to the births. Next, I like to read the want ads and do the crossword puzzle. After that, I am ready to tackle the news. I read the entire Missoulian, no big feat.
I guess I like to read the obits because I have lived in Montana for so long. It seems like I always know someone, and I feel like I am honoring them by reading their story. Also, it makes me feel better if a person dies at a ripe old age. I am getting up there in years, after all. I like to see the births because I was a midwife for many years, so again I know a lot of the families. The crossword works two ways. Either I do great and feel better that I don't have dementia, or I do terrible and well, that is a worry, isn't it?

In both places, the paper needs to be shared. So the first question should be, who is already reading what when I sit down to breakfast (at home) or to lunch (at work)?
At home, everyone wants the local section. My husband reads the editorials; my older daughter does too, plus the political cartoons and the letters to the editor; I actually read the local news in the local news section, and then some of the editorials; my younger daughter just wants to look at the weather. So this section is usually under demand by everyone and when you get to read it is something that is negotiated.
At work, the section under greatest demand is sports. To me, this section has been hived off for easy disposal/recycling. The Friday and Saturday NYT crossword, if I can remember, will get photocopied at work so I can do it at home over the weekend.
If I had my complete freedom over the paper, I’d read it as follows:
1. Front section
2. Local News
3. Northwest Life/Life and Arts (some of the articles, plus the advice columns and the funnies)
Then:
4. Scan the front of the business section
5. Leaf through the occasional suppliments, such as the entertainment pull out at the end of the week, the outdoors section, etc. if interested and if I have time.
Discard: classifieds, other ads, Sports.
Oh, and I sometimes get a hold of our work place’s Wall Street Journal, but that’s hard to track down. There’s one co-worker that basically hoards it at her desk.
『柒』 英语阅读理解中时事部分比较难,谁能提供一些好的文章啊量最好大点。
好办!<1>多看有趣的文章,例如福岛核电站、日本地震等等,可以学到tsunami(日语版,转成权英语,=海啸).核辐射Radiation/Radiative等等,一看即懂;<2>多唱流行歌曲,了解当下流行明星、人物,政客等等;<3>多背短语。因为短语的意思与字面不同。例如look after(字面是:"看后面",即使是天才,你也难懂);<4>多看语法书,把汉语/母语习惯改掉。<5>专攻条块新闻,例如体育。你把体育类的单词吭个光,就好懂了。然后就是看看轻松的八卦新闻,接下来就是战争,经济。医学是最麻烦了,慢慢熬!
『捌』 如何解答新闻报道英语阅读理解题
一.阅读的模式1.自下而上模式
根据这个模式,阅读首先被认为是对文本的识别,阅读也因此被视为解码的过程。也就是说,读者对文本的理解是由单词到短语、由短语到句子、由句子到语篇逐级辨认解码,不断进行信息组合,综合运用一切语言数据,逐步弄懂短语、句子直至段落篇章的意义。信息处理是自下而上直线进行的,按照这个模式去理解阅读过程。因此,这种模式没有文本的识别也就没有阅读;认为影响学生理解的最主要的因素是文本;是构成文本的字母、单词、短语、句法;认为读者不能理解的主要原因是不能自动解码,词汇量缺乏,语法结构不清。
按照这个模式去理解阅读过程,教师的主要任务就是帮助学生解决语言知识方面的问题。这是最传统的模式。在这种模式的影响下,教师在阅读教学中:先解词,再解词组,然后解句,最后才通篇理解。因此,常常是把一篇文章的所有生词和短语放在最前面来单独进行教学。事实上,阅读是积极主动地获取信息的交际行为,而自下而上的模式低估了阅读者的主动作用,没有把阅读者看作是信息的积极处理者。
2.自上而下模式
Goodman在1970年把阅读描述为一个心理语言的猜测游戏。到了80年代初期,人们的认识逐渐趋向一致:阅读是一个主动的、有目的的、有创造性的心理过程。按照这个模式,阅读者不必逐句解码,而是在语言知识和背景知识的参与下对信息进行重新加工或构建,理解文字符号代表的真实意义,推断作者的意图。这个背景知识指读者的社会背景知识、文化背景知识、认知策略、生活经验及情感因素等,即所谓“图式”。阅读者调动一切言语和非言语手段进行信息译码加工的过程,实际上是创造性的思维的过程。
这种模式是以图式驱动论作为基础的。认为缺乏必要的图式往往是影响阅读的主要因素。阅读不是文本解码的过程,而是利用自己已有的图示对文本所要表达的意思、作者要传达的信息和思想,对故事的发展进行预测、验证、修正的过程。
在这种模式的影响下,教师在进行阅读教学的时候,会重视背景知识对理解的作用。例如先提供相关的背景知识,然后进入对材料的理解。在这个阅读过程中,非视觉信息起着相当重要的作用,这些非视觉信息包括阅读者全部知识的总和。在这个过程中信息自上而下地得到处理。读者不再是被动地从阅读材料中获取信息,而是运用已经具备的背景知识(包括语言知识),根据阅读材料去预(猜)测、创造意义。其解码方式不是直线 的成序列状的,而是读者在阅读过程之前或之中不断形成对意义的期待,然后用这种期待去试读文章。3.互动模式这种模式是以交互补偿论作为基础的。认为经历不同,文化背景不同,知识结构不同,
受教育不同,对同一件事情、同一个概念的表达方式不同。阅读不仅包括对文本的识别,同样需要了解相关的历史、文化、知识等。阅读不只是一个解码过程,也不只是一个猜测过程,而是语言与图式交互作用的过程。认为阅读是语言与图式的相互补偿,是读者与作者的交互,是读者与文本的交互。
