As is vividly illustrated in the picture......
【答案】
As is vividly illustrated in the picture,in some schools study is the only thing they focus on, and they pay no attention to students’ other abilities, thus turning out students who cannot cater to the needs of society.
The picture sets me reflecting on our present school education. There are in my opinion, many factors contributing to the phenomenon.First, faced with fierce competition, many students desire to achieve high scores in the College Entrance Examination and enter an ideal university, which will give them an edge in their future career, so they cannot afford to spend time on things other than study. Second, with pressure form parents and society, schools have to sacrifice students’ development of other abilities for their academic performance.
As for me, it is of great importance for students to develop various kinds of abilities. Only in this way can they adapt to our changing society. Besides , it is high on the agenda for schools to switch their attention to cultivating students’ all-round abilities.
【解析】本文涵盖了题目所要求的三方面内容,文章的三部分连贯自然,一气呵成。画面上有一棵大树,只剩下唯一一根“学习”的树枝,其他的如“动手能力”、“组织能力”、“表演能力”等树枝都被“某些学校教育”这把锯子锯掉了。更难能可贵的是文章中较多地使用了复杂的句型结构和高级词汇,展示了作者良好的语言功底。首段中thus turning out students who cannot cater to the needs of society.其中cater to the needs of society意为“满足社会的需求”。The picture sets me reflecting on our present school education,本句中,set sb.doing sth.使某人处于某种状况;reflect on认真思考。faced with fierce competition,为过去分词作状语;which will give them an edge in their future career, which引导非限制性定语从句等;Only in this way can they adapt to our changing society.本句使用了倒闭结构。“Only+状语”前置时,句子使用部分倒装。另外最后一句 it is high on the agenda for schools to switch their attention to cultivating students’ all-round abilities.使用了固定句型,意为:对某人来说做某事是当务之急。

【题目】
A great loss—Shirley Temple dies at 85
February 12, 2014
BY DERRIK J. LANG, Associated Press
Shirley Temple Black, who died on February 10th at age 85, wasn’t just a child star. She was THE child star—the sweet little girl whose shining smile helped illumine some of the darkest days the US has known during the Great Depression.
It’s hard today to imagine the super star Shirley was once “America’s Little Darling”. She sang and danced her way to the top of the box office in such films as Bright Eyes, Curly Top and Heidi. By 1940, she had appeared in 43 films. Temple teamed with Bill Robison in four movies, and their dance on the stairs in The Little Colonel is still a legendary film moment.
In the 1930s, her name on a movie introduction assured (保证) a packed house. She inspired dolls, dresses, dishes—even a drink (alcohol-free, of course).
US President Franklin D. Roosevelt once famously said that “as long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right.’’
Unlike so many of today’s child stars, Temple didn’t end up with her name appearing across the headlines for bad behaviors. Instead of getting her photos on front pages or struggling with drugs and alcohol, Temple went on to a second career in diplomacy (外交), including presidential appointments as ambassador to Ghana.
She surprised a lot of people who doubted her with her grace, knowledge and eagerness to serve. In fact, her career in public service (20 years) was longer than her career in movies (19). The role she valued most, however, was as wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.
The world has lost a treasured Hollywood legend. But her movies will allow that little dynamic figure to continue charming audiences for a very long time.
【1】The word “illumine” in Paragraph 1 means _______.
A. shorten B. sweeten
C. strengthen D. brighten
【2】Temple, as a child movie star, can best be described as _______.
A. sweet and lively B. gentle and kind
C. smart and knowledgeable D. shy and attractive
【3】What part did she regard as the most important in her life?
A. A top movie star. B. A businesswoman.
C. Her family role. D. Her diplomacy career.
【4】Where does this passage possibly come from?
A. A biography. B. A newspaper.
C. A magazine. D. A poster.

How Children Succeed, by Paul Tough
Journalist Tough spent five years reporting his previous (先前的) book, Whatever It Takes, a description of education activist Geoffrey Canada and the families influenced by his organization, the Harlem Children’s Zone. In this 2012 follow-up, Tough sets out to answer the difficult questions raised by Whatever It Takes: Why do some kids — particularly poor ones — succeed while others fail?

The Death and Life of the Great American School System, by Diane Ravitch

The Flat World and Education, by Linda Darling –Hammond
While scores on the tests required by “No Child Left Behind” have steadily (平稳地) risen, America’s students are always falling behind on international testing measures. Why?

【题目】BLOOD DRIVE & MARROW(骨髓) REGISTRATION
“These patients deserve a chance at a normal, happy future and they rely on the kindness of strangers to make that happen.”
—Daisy, Isabelle's Mother
Isabelle is the daughter of Daisy and Saman Mirzaei. In January 2008 Isabelle was diagnosed with a genetic blood disorder, beta thalassemia. Isabelle's body is unable to produce healthy red blood cells. As a result, Isabelle has been receiving blood transfusions(输血) every 4~6 weeks since she was 11 months old. A lifetime of regular transfusions can lead to serious medical problems. Her only chance at a normal, healthy life is to have a marrow transplant. Isabelle is an only child, so doctors have started a search for an unrelated marrow donor through the Be The Match Registry. The Mirzaei family asks that you consider helping patients like Isabelle by registering to be a marrow donor and give the gift of life, the gift of blood.

Canada Day is the year’s biggest national party. In many towns and cities, the government organizes a lot of events, often outdoors.
