Should Science and Arts Education Be Separated?
The issue of separating science and arts education is getting heated up as debate spreads through the country, which attracts tens of thousands of votes¡­¡­

¡¾´ð°¸¡¿About 50% of the people interviewed think it unwise to get arts and science separated in high school£® In their opinion, a real expert needs a wide range of knowledge£® With the development of modern society, multi-skilled people are in great demand£® However, over 40% of them insist that they should be separated so that students can concentrate on some subjects and become experts£® Besides, they will not be overburdened as before£®
As far as I¡¯m concerned, it will be better if we don¡¯t separate science and arts education£® Because a strong ability in both science and arts is helpful for the long-term development of individuals and the society as a whole£® All over the world£® only in China are science and arts separated, which has had a bad effect on students¡¯ development£® It's high time we changed this situation£®

Around four years ago, I received a call from the principal of our school as to the ¡°Parents View¡± talk the next morning. He asked me to speak to the group. After the call, my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night, I could not sleep with many ominous_apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some courage. I thought, ¡°If I miss this opportunity, surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.¡±
I reached the school in time. Before my turn came, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn't even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness: Public Speaking.
After my speech, I met with the principal and explained what happened to me. He told me that this happens to everyone. Even great speakers faced the same things when they started. He suggested that I come again next time.
Around one month later£¬I was invited to refer to a topic on motivation. This time I was feeling comfortable. My speech was appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers, because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged me and praised my efforts.
After delivering it successfully, I became more confident. I said to myself£¬¡°If I can speak in front of such a learned audience, like the principal who educates others, I can now speak in front of others too.¡±
I started delivering lectures on various topics like Self Motivation, Personality Development, Personal Excellence, Spoken English and Presentation Skills. This has become a passion for me. I have learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.

Last Wednesday, about 7,400 American bankers went back to school again. This timethey did not go to learn¡ªthey went to teach. 1997£¬the American Bankers Association hassponsored Teach Children to Save Day. Every April 26, bankers across the USAteach over 1.5 million primary and secondary school students how to handle money.
In the USA, children, especially teenagers, are often big spenders. In 2013, forexample, American teenagers spent $175 billion. This is average of $104per week per teenager. Few teenagers have any savings. They typically spendmoney as fast as they can. Nearly all will continue their (spend) habits whenthey grow up.
It's necessary that children learn proper money management they are stillyoung. The bankers show students how to budget and make smart (decide)about money. They explain how to balance their expenses against their income.They help the students understand their family's shopping and householdexpenses as well. Of course£¬students(teach) how to invest and save money too.
AsBenjamin Franklin said, ¡°A penny saved is a penny earned.¡± Moreover, money(save) at interest can increase greatly in value over time. Children, adults, need to understand the value of saving money. This is TeachChildren to Save Day is all about.

In an ideal world£¬people would not test medicines on animals. Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals£¬and expensive and time£­consuming for people. Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge. That is why there are some 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.
Europe£¬on the whole£¬has the world's most restrictive(ÑϸñµÄ) laws on animal experiments. Even so£¬its scientists use some 12 million animals a year£¬most of them mice and rats£¬for medical research. Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are used in research in America each year. But that is misleading. The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and£¬as these are the most common laboratory animals£¬the true figure is much higher. Japan and China have even less comprehensive(È«ÃæµÄ) data than America.
Now Europe is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs. Alternatives to animal testing£¬such as using human tissue or computer models£¬are now strongly recommended. In addition£¬sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of animals for scientific use. At present£¬scientists often share only the results of successful experiments. If their findings do not fit the hypothesis(¼ÙÉè) being tested£¬the work never sees the light of day. This practice means wasting time£¬money£¬and animals' lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.
Animal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives. It needs to continue£¬even if that means animals sometimes suffer. Europe's new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.
£¨1£©What is the main idea of this passage?
A.The success of animal experiments should be ensured.
B.A ban on the use of animals in the lab should be enforced.
C.Greater efforts need to be taken to reduce the number of lab animals.
D.Scientists should be required to share their research results with each other.
£¨2£©Which of the following statements is true about animals used in the lab?
A.America uses only about 1.1 million lab animals per year.
B.Europe does not use mice and rats as lab animals at all.
C.Britain does not use as many lab animals as China does.
D.Japan has limited data on the number of lab animals used each year.
£¨3£©Which of the following is mentioned as an alternative to replace animal experiments?
A.Statistical studies.
B.Computer models.
C.DNA planted in animals.
D.Tissue from dead animals.
£¨4£©What usually happens to unsuccessful animal experiments?
A.They are not made known to the public.
B.They are made into teaching materials.
C.They are collected for future publication.

D. in marine geology, who invited me to come to the University of California, Santa Barbara where I ended up getting my undergraduate degree in Geology and Chemistry with minors in Math and Physics.

Reporter: What¡¯s the best piece of advice that anyone has ever given you that you can share with us?

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿A researcher has made a report ¡¾1¡¿ says having a lot of money makes you a bad person. Professor Paul Piff spent ten years ¡¾2¡¿ (look) at the personalities of rich people and ¡¾3¡¿ (find) that their behaviour was very different ¡¾4¡¿ the behavior of poor people. Rich people are more likely to break ¡¾5¡¿ (rule), not follow the law, and not care about other people. Wealthy people cheat more at games and are less likely to help other people. Professor Piff told the BBC, ¡°Wealth makes you more ¡¾6¡¿ (worry) about your own interests, your own desires, your own welfare.¡± He added that rich people think their own goals and needs are the most ¡¾7¡¿ (importance) thing in their life.

Professor Piff also found that poor people are more generous than rich people. The poor give a higher percentage of their money ¡¾8¡¿ (help) others than the rich. The ¡¾9¡¿ (wealth) you are, the less generous you are. You give significantly smaller portions away to other people. However, he said that rich people could change their behavior and become nicer ¡¾10¡¿ more generous.

A
I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (Ìù±êÇ© ) everything. I always, looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (ÅÀ ) under her covers, sobbing.
Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up.
She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. "Thanks."
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
£¨1£©What made Kate angry one evening?
A.She couldn't find her books.
B.She heard the author shouting loud.
C.She got the news that her grandma was ill.
D.She saw the author's shoes beneath her bed.
£¨2£©The author tidied up the room most probably because___.
A.she was scared by Kate's anger
B.she hated herself for being so messy
C.she wanted to show her care
D.she was asked by Kate to do so
£¨3£©What might be the best title for the story?
A.My Friend Kate
B.Hard Work Pays Off
C.How to Be Organized
D.Learning to Be Roommates
