【题目】( B )
Once there was a king and his daughter. The king asked his daughter how much she loved him. She said that she loved him as much as she loved salt. Her answer made the king very happy. Salt is simple thing, but it is very important. So the king thought his daughter cared a lot about him.
Salt has many uses. Bodies need salt. If we don’t have enough, our bodies can’t work properly. We put salt on icy roads to make them safe. We also use salt to produce other products, like paper and glass. But for many years, salt’s most important job was to protect food. Like other living things, most bacteria(细菌) need water to live. Salt takes in plenty of water, so most bacteria can’t live in a salty environment. Therefore, salt protects food and many other things. For much of humans history, this ability has made salt valuable. Every ancient culture from Egypt to China depended on salt. Even today, the hard working useful people are described as “the salt of the earth”.
For centuries, salt was also hard to get because its usefulness made it very expensive. Salt could even be used like money, in fact, the word salary(薪水) comes from the word salt.
Today, salt is used more widely and it still plays an important role in our life.

【题目】 A new report says promising children money to pass exams does not help their exam grades. It could be a waste of money using cash to get kids to study more. However, the promise of a trip could encourage students to try harder and do better at school. Scientists looked at how promises of money and tickets to shows affected students’ studying and learning. Over 10, 000 pupils took part in the survey in 2016. There was an improvement in homework, but this did not result in better test scores.
Lead researcher Dr Simon Burgess thought the survey showed something important and interesting. He said it had not found something that really got students to work harder. He added that, “Clearly, some pupils have a lot of goals and believe that education is very important in life, but there are kids who think that working hard doesn’t make a difference. He said these children think exam success is “all in your genes(基因)” because of their family background.
Education expert Dr Kevan Collins said good teachers were better than promises of rewards to get children to study, especially for children from low-income families. He wrote, “What really makes difference is how students are taught.”

A.promising children money isn’t helpful for their exam grades
