“Tom! Here!” said a father to his boy. The boy was at play. He looked toward his father, but did not want to leave his friends. With an unhappy face, the boy got close to his parent.
“Why do you walk so slowly?” said the father, angrily. “Come quickly! Take this note to Mr. Smith. Now run as fast as you can.”
The boy took the note but he moved away slowly.
“You, Tom! Run!” called the father. “If you are not back in half an hour, I will punish you.”
But the words had little effect. The boy’s feelings were hurt by the unkindness of the parent.
“I never saw such a boy,” said the father, speaking to a friend. “My words make no difference to him.”
“Kind words often prove most powerful,” said the friend. “Kind words are like the gentle rain. They develop and strengthen good feelings. Try a few kind words.”
An hour passed, but his boy wasn’t back. The father felt very angry with the child.

【答案】But the words of his friend were still in his ears. At last the boy came back slowly and reported the result of his task. Having stayed far beyond his time, he had expected a storm of punishment and was prepared to receive it with great anger. To his surprise, his father said kindly, “Very good, my son; now you can go out to play again.” Instead of joining his friends, he went and sat down by himself, feeling ashamed of his impolite act. That was the big power of kind words.
【解析】
这是一篇读后续写作文。
通过阅读所给文章可知,Tom的父亲让Tom将纸条交给Smith先生,并且生气Tom慢吞吞的动作。父亲的朋友告诉父亲试着说几句好话。一个小时过去了,Tom还是没有回来,父亲对孩子感到非常生气。
续写部分分为两段,续写的开头是:但是他朋友的话还在他耳边回响。所以后文应该是讲述孩子回来后,父亲的反应,他以为父亲会大发雷霆,谁知道父亲并没有生气,而是让Tom出去玩儿。Tom没有和朋友们一起去,而是一个人坐了下来,为自己的不礼貌行为感到羞愧。这就是善意话语的巨大力量。

【题目】 The classic model of education — a burst at the start and company training — is breaking down. One reason is the need for new and constantly updated skill. Manufacturing increasingly calls for brain work rather than manual labor.
Pushing people into ever-higher levels of formal education at the start of their lives is not the way to handle the problem. Just 16% of Americans think that a four-year college degree prepares students very well for a good job. Although a vocational education promises that vital first hire, those with specialized training tend to withdraw from the labor force earlier than those with general education perhaps because they are less adaptable.
At the same time on-the-job training is shrinking. In America and Britain it has fallen by roughly half in the past two decades. Self-employment is spreading, leaving more people to take responsibility for their own skills. Taking time out later in life to pursue a formal qualification is an option, but it costs money and most colleges are meant for youngsters.
The market is innovating to enable workers to learn and earn in new ways. Providers from General Assembly to Pluralsight are building businesses on the promise of improving careers. Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have turned away from lectures on Plato or black holes in favor of courses that make their students more employable. At Udacity and Coursera self-improvers pay for cheap, short programs. By offering degrees online, universities are making it easier for professionals to polish their skills. A single master’s program from Georgia Tech could expand the annual output of computer-science master’s degrees in America by close to 10%.
Lifelong learning starts at school. As a rule, education should not be narrowly vocational. The curriculum needs to teach children how to study and think. A focus on “metacognition” (元认知) will make them better at picking up skills later in life.
【1】Which is the reason why traditional education is failing?
A.It bursts educators’ bubble in the beginning.B.Companies can’t afford training fees.
C.Old skills can’t meet the present needs.D.It fails to develop one’s brain.
【2】What can we infer from the text?
A.The more knowledgeable one is, the more likely he is to be employed.
B.Most Americans are poor at their studies in the college.
C.More than 80% of Americans have to be self-employed now.
D.Returning to college after working is not considered worthwhile.
【3】What does the underlined word “innovating” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Reforming its system.B.Declining little by little.
C.Booming all at once.D.Wasting time and energy.
【4】How do colleges adapt to the present education model?
A.They open online courses.B.They provide easier access to updated skills.
C.They pay for cheap short programs.D.They lower the standard for master’s degree.

【题目】 When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing(令人相信的), “This is Mrs. Tan.”
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me check already two week late.”
And then, in perfect English I said : “I’m getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”
Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate(容忍) any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed(使尴尬) me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape(影响) the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.
【1】Why was the author’s mother poorly served?
A.She was unable to speak good English.B.She was often misunderstood.
C.She was not clearly heard.D.She was not very polite.
【2】From Paragraph 2, we know that the author was ________.
A.good at pretendingB.rude to the stockbroker
C.ready to help her motherD.unwilling to phone for her mother
【3】After the author made the phone call, ________.
A.they forgave the stockbrokerB.they failed to get the check
C.they went to New York immediatelyD.they spoke to their boss at once
【4】What does the author think of her mother’s English now?
A.It confuses her.B.It embarrasses her.
C.It helps her understand the world.D.It helps her tolerate rude people.

Many people take the idea of saving money very seriously. Back in 1924, in Italy, a group of people 【1】 (think) the inability to resist spending a major social problem. They had the idea of starting a day to remind people to put away some money for a rainy day. This is how World Saving Day, held on Oct. 31st 【2】(annual), was started, and it's still going strong in 2019.
Not surprisingly, a movement 【3】(target) the poor was started. People in the underdeveloped world are more open 【4】 calls to be careful with money. But 【5】 idea of being thrifty (节俭) has also become popular among the rich. Take Mark Zuckerberg for example. The Facebook founder, one of the world's 【6】(rich) people, doesn't spend very much money on himself.
Other people don't spend money because they don't like the culture of 【7】(consume). This is connected to the view 【8】 we should make ourselves happy through the activities we take part in, rather than with what we buy.
But however we view money, moderate spending is certainly a good idea when we are still too young to get a job. There is a British saying that 【9】(offer) some good advice in this situation: “Look after the pennies, and the pounds will look after 【10】(they).”
