The Fitting-in of Suzy Khan

The first time I saw Suzy Khan, I knew I had to help her. She was really small for her age of 12. The boy in my class

often 36 about her and laughed their heads off. She would open a book, pretending to read, with tears dropping on the

open page.

All I knew was that she was an orphan ( 孤儿 ) from Africa. She had just been adopted by a family in town who 37

that the best way for her to learn American ways of life was to be with american kids. I looked down at this 38 girl and

promised myself that somehow I would help her.

But how could I help her 39 in with us? There had to be a 40 .

One day, when I went into the classroom, I saw that Suzy had 41 her geography book to a picture of a train,

and in her notebook, she had made a(n) 42 copy.

I was surprised and thought that she could do something in the coming 43 show. So, I took her to see the art

teacher, Miss Parker, and showed her what Suzy had 44 . “why, it ’s wonderful, ”said Miss Parker, who then showed

us a poster she had painted 45 the talent show. “I need more of these, but I just don ’thave enough 46 . Could

you help me, Suzy?”

On the day of the talent show, Suzy ’s 47 were everywhere ---- all over the hall and all over the school, each

one different.

“And finally, ”said Mr Brown, the schoolmaster, at the end of the show, “we have a (n) award. I ’m sure you’ve all noticed the wonderful posters. ”Everyone nodded. “One of our own students 49 them.”

I could hear everyone whispering. “Who in our school could draw 50 well? ”

Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “ 51 this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a

Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist ’s set. “Thank you, ”she cried.

The Brown Bear

My wife Laura and I were on the beach, with three of our children, taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we spotted a bear. The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly.

Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, “Dad! The bear is right behind us! ”An agreesive bear will usually

rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned

back---- the sign ( 迹象 ) of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally,

probably because of hunger.

I held my camera tripod ( 三脚架 ) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with

my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I

would not be able to hold it for long.

Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance

of running faster than a brown bear.

The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the

tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break.

Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times. The bear opened its mouth and I

grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling ( 扭打 ) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had

begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back toward the forest, before returning for another attack----- The first time I felf

panic.

Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was

injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. I ’m proud that my family reminded clear-headed when panic

could have led to a very different outcome.

60. The brown bear approached the family in order to _______.

A. catch shore birds B. start an attack C. protect the children set up a barrier for itself

61. The bear finally went away after it _______.

A. felt safe B. got injured C. found some food D. took away the camera

62. The writer and his family survived mainly due to their ______ .

A. pride B. patience C. calmness D. cautiousness

Choosing the Right Resolution ( 决定 )

Millions of Americans began 2014 with the same resolution they started 2013 with, a goal of losing weight. However,

setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake.

To reach our goal of losing weight --- the output, we need to control what we eat --- the input ( 输入 ). That is, we tend to

care about the output but not to control the input. This is a bad way to construce goals. The alternative is to focus your

resolution on the input. Instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “I’ll stop having desert for lunch,

”or

“ I’ll walk every day for 20 minutes. ”Creating a goal that focuses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the outcome.

Recently a new science behind incentives ( 激励 ) , including in education, has been discussed. For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children to do better in school. In some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect on output. Fryer ’s conclusion was that the intensives for inputs might be more effective because do not knoe how to do better on exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.”Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more
