As the leaves change color in autumn students return to school. As a frost cove’s the ground each night, we are busy planting vegetables in northern Wisconsin.
Five public school districts in northern Wisconsin recently built high tunnels（隧道）for the winter growing season. The schools’ high tunnels, made of metal frame and a plastic covering the raised beds, keep plants warm enough to extend the growing season through the winter and allow an earlier spring planting. Our very short growing season occurs almost entirely during the summer vacation months. This makes the high tunnels necessary in allowing students to gain experience of growing and marketing produce in a cold climate where production at this scale couldn’t otherwise happen during the school year.
During the summer, the high tunnels on school grounds still need to remain there. We developed the Agripreneur program（Agriculture + Entrepreneur）to support students’ work in the high tunnels during months when students are on holidays. This program was made possible by a farm and a university. Each summer, a pair of students will be hired from every high school to care for and sell a single crop in exchange for instruction from professional local farmers, growing experience, and a salary.
The Agripreneur program appeared for its first season during the summer of 2015. Students grew tomatoes that were sold to community members, local restaurants and the school cafeterias（食堂）. The program met its goal of increasing the number of local vegetables consumed, both within the region and in school lunches. Sales to school cafeterias will continue through the winter as the high tunnels’ change to nutrient root vegetables, all grown by students.
We may live in winter, but with the recent addition of these school high tunnels, our students are able to eat the freshest local vegetables available—even during the coldest months.
1.What do we know about the school’s high tunnels?
A. They are actually greenhouses.
B. They are actually metal containers.
C. They are entirely used for planting vegetables in summer
D. They are mainly used as reading rooms for students.
2.High tunnels are being used in the school districts because of________.
A. students’ interest in planting. B. the larger need of crops there.
C. the short growing season there. D. no fresh vegetables available there.
3.The Agripreneur program was created to________.
A. get farmers to produce more crops.
B. check students’ work on the high tunnels.
C. get instructions from professional local farmers.
D. help students do their work in the high tunnels in holidays.
4.What can be the best title for the text?
A. Crops Are Planted in Winter
B. Students Are Becoming Scientists
C. Schools Have the Vegetable Market
D. New Growing Season Begins Under High Tunnels

What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher？I think the following would be generally accepted.
Firstly，the teacher's personality should be lively and attractive. This does not rule out people who are plain?looking，or even ugly，because many such people have great personal charm. 1..
Secondly，it is not merely desirable but essential for a teacher to have a capacity for sympathy，a capacity to understand the minds and feelings of children. 2.—not of what is wrong，but of the weaknesses and immaturity of children，which cause them to make mistakes.
Thirdly，I hold it essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and morally honest. This means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths and limitations，and will have thought about and decided upon the moral principles by which his life shall be guided. 3.. That is part of the technique of teaching，which demands that every now and then a teacher should be able to put on an act—to enliven(使生动)a lesson，correct a fault，or award praise.
A teacher must be capable of infinite patience. 4.，for we are none of us born like that.
Finally，I think a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants to go on learning. 5.；there is always something more to learn about. There are three principal objects of study：the subjects which the teacher is teaching；the methods by which the subjects can best be taught to the particular pupils in the classes he is teaching；most importantly，the children，young people，or adults to whom the subjects are to be taught.
A．This，I may say，is largely a matter of self?discipline and self?training
B．Closely related to this is the capacity to be tolerant
C. Teaching is a job at which one will never be perfect
D．Children，especially young children，live in a world that is rather larger than life
E．There is no contradiction (自相矛盾)in my going on to say that a teacher should be a bit of an actor
F．But it does rule out such types as the over?excitable，sad，cold，and frustrated
G．There are two fundamental principles of British education today

Restaurants have been around in some form for most of human civilization. As far back as ancient Greece and Rome, there was a trend that inns and taverns(客栈) generally served food to people who had a reason to be away from home. 1. Although taverns and coffee houses were popular places to gather and share beverages in the 17th century, the idea of eating out for fun didn’t take off in Western society until the late 18th century.
Although McDonald’s was the first restaurant to use the assembly-line system, some people think of White Castle as the first fast-food chain. 2. At the time, most people considered the burgers sold at fairs, circuses, lunch counters and carts to be low-quality. Many people thought hamburger came from slaughterhouse(屠宰场) scraps and spoiled meat.
3. They built their restaurants so that customers could see the food being prepared. They painted the buildings white and even chose a name that suggested cleanliness. White Castle was most popular in the American East and Midwest, but its success helped give hamburger meat a better reputation nationwide.
The McDonald brothers opened their redesigned restaurant in 1948, and several fast-food chains that exist today opened soon after. 4. And Wendy’s opened in 1969. McDonald’s is now the world’s largest fast-food chain.
According to the National Restaurant Association, American sales of fast food totaled $163.5 billion in 2005. 5. Total sales for McDonald’s grew 5.6 percent in 2005, and the company now has 30,000 franchised stores in more than 120 countries.
A. The industry is growing globally as well.
B. This trend continued until relatively recently.
C. White Castle was founded in 1921 in Wichita, Kansas.
D. Burger King and Taco Bell got their start in the 1950s.
E. It’s hard to imagine fast food without drive-through windows.
F. It allows restaurants to receive and store a large amount of food.
G. White Castle’s founders decided to change the public’s perception of hamburgers.
