【题目】A woman brought a very limp-looking duck to see a vet. As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope(听诊器) and listened to the bird’s chest.
After a moment or two, the vet shook his head and sadly said, “I’m sorry, your duck, Cuddles, has passed away.”
The woman was so disappointed and asked, “Are you sure?” “Yes, I am sure. Your duck is dead,” replied the vet.
“How can you be so sure?” she protested. “I mean you haven’t done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma(昏迷) or something.”
The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the room. He returned a few minutes later with a black dog. As the duck’s owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his back legs, put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed(嗅) the duck from top to bottom. He then looked up at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head. The vet patted the dog on the head and took it out of the room.
A few minutes later, he returned with a cat. The cat jumped on the table and also carefully sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back down, shook his head meowed softly and went out of the room.
The vet looked at the woman and said, “I’m sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck.”
The vet turned to his computer, pressed a few keys and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman.
The duck’s owner, still in shock, took the bill. “150 dollars!” she shouted. “150 dollars just to tell me my duck is dead!”
The vet shrugged, “I’m sorry. If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been 20 dollars, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it’s now 150 dollars.”
【1】Why did the vet take a dog and a cat into the examination room?
A. To confirm (确认) the duck was dead.
B. To give to the woman as pets.
C. To comfort the woman.
D. To ask them to save the duck’s life.
【2】How was the woman likely to feel after being told the reason why the bill was 150 dollars?
A. Awkward. B. Angry
C. Sad. D. Delighted.
【3】The passage is a(n) ________.
A. novel B. joke.
C. advertisement D. review
【答案】
【1】A
【2】B
【3】B
【解析】记叙文。一个猫和狗当兽医的笑话。
【1】推理判断题。通读全文可知，兽医说鸭子已死，主人不信，于是用猫狗来嗅，如果没死，应该有反应，可推知，兽医的目的。故选A.
【2】推理判断题。根据If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been 20 dollars, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it’s now 150 dollars.”（本来只要20元，经过试验报告和猫眼扫描就150）可知，主人会生气。
【3】推理判断题。兽医用猫狗来检查宠物，并收高价。本身就违背常识，可知是笑话。

If you said you were suffering from “burnout” in the early 1970s, you might have raised some eyebrows.
At the time, the term was informally to describe the side effects that heavy drug users experienced.
However, in 1974, a German-American psychologist Herbert Freudenberger found the volunteers at his clinic were struggling, too: their work was tough, and many were lacking in motivation. Freudenberger defined this condition as a state of extreme tiredness caused by constant overwork－and borrowed the term “burnout” to describe it.
Late last month, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced that the problem will be recognized as a syndrome (综合征) “resulting from workplace stress that has not been successfully managed.”
Feeling the burn so how can you tell if you’re almost burned out?
“A lot of the signs and symptoms of pre-burnout would be very similar to depression,” says Siobhan Murray, a psychotherapist. She suggests looking out for bad habits, such as increased alcohol consumption and relying on sugar to get you through the day. Also watch out for feelings of tiredness that won’t go away or not having the energy to exercise or go for a walk. As soon as you begin to feel this way, Murray advises going to see your doctor. “Depression and pre-burnout are very similar. But it is still classified as an occupational phenomenon which is still best tackled by making lifestyle changes.”
And how do you know if you’re really on the edge of burnout? “Stress is really important, and anxiety is what motivates us to do well,” says Murray. “It’s when we’re continually exposed to stress and anxiety that it starts to turn into burnout.”
You’re pre-burnout: What’s next?
“Sometimes they feel the need to be too perfect so they’re having to work very hard to cover up that they’re not quite as good as everyone thinks.” Another therapist Walker says.
However, sometimes the work environment is the problem. According to a 2018 study of 7,500 US workers, burnout comes from unfair treatment at work, an unmanageable workload and not knowing what a person’s role should involve. Workers were also stressed out by a lack of support from their manager and punreasonable time pressure.
Whatever the cause of your burnout, Murray’s top tip is to be kind to yourself.
In Murray’s experience, a key driver of burnout is today’s culture of wanting it all. Often it’s just not possible to have a healthy social life and complete a big project at the same time. She says it’s vital to prioritize and not expect too much of yourself; when others seem like the perfect boss, parent and friend all at the same time, they’re probably misleading us.
If you feel that you might be close to joining the burnout club, take a step back, figure out what’s going wrong－and let yourself off the hook.

【题目】For students at The Farm School in Hamilton, Virginia, the classroom is outside-every day.
Jaclyn Jenkins is a founder of the school. "The number one question immediately we get from parents is ‘what happens if it rains?’ And we say, ‘Bring an extra pair of clothes!’" Jenkins adds, "We still educate them. They also get energy. Their brains are working when they re moving. So, our goal is to always be outside."
The Farm School is a preschool-a place for three-and four-year-olds to learn and play. Teacher Alison Huff has taught at other schools. She says The Farm School gives its students more of a hands-on learning experience. For example, children use pumpkins to learn about colors and counting. They learn about measurements by planting seeds 30 centimeters apart. Huff says "We can use everything a regular preschool uses, but out in the garden."
Apart from planting vegetables and fruits, students help prepare food and clean up afterward. The school teaches the children to cook using the food they have grown. "They can see the advantages of what they have in the garden and taste it then instead of going to the grocery store and buying it," Huff says.
The preschoolers also lean words in languages other than English. Huff speaks in both English and Spanish. Her assistant speaks French and Arabic. She adds that a 3-year-old in her class speaks four different languages.
Farm animals are also an important part of the education program. Jaclyn Jenkins says the children learn about a different animal every month. Two months ago, she says, that animal was a cow. The children spent another month with a large bird-a turkey.
The children come home with new experiences, new knowledge and sometimes a few vegetables.
【1】What worries parents most about the school?
A. Children have to learn outside.
B. There are too many things to learn.
C. How to deal with it when it rains.
D. Whether there are enough teachers.
【2】What may the underlined word "hands-on" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Useful.
B. Practical.
C. Attractive.
D. Reliable.
【3】Which is part of the education program of the school?
A. Counting and measuring.
B. Raising animals.
C. Buying fruits and vegetables.
D. Cleaning the farm.
【4】Which of the following statements is true about the school?
A. Children have to cook for themselves.
B. Children in the school learn by doing.
C. Playing outside is the most important.
D. The goal is to have the children stay outside.
