When was the last time you told someone they inspire you to go to work each morning?

Teachers at Oak Park High School in Kansas City, Missouri, did just that this September, when they pulled individual students out of class to tell them just how much they appreciated them.

The students’ reactions, which were captured (捕捉) on video and shared on YouTube in a now-viral video, ranged from shy thanks to hugs and tears.

“I have been challenged to find a student who makes me want to come to school every day,” says one teacher in the video, “and that’s you.”

Jamie McSparin, a teacher in charge of the school’s academy program for at-risk sophomores （二年级学生）and juniors, posed the challenge, writes ABC News.

“Initially when we pulled the kids out, they all thought they were in trouble,” McSparin told ABC News. “Any teacher-student interaction always seems to be negative (消极的), and that was something that bothered me, too. No matter if they’re a good kid or a trouble maker or anything, they always thought they were in trouble,” she says.

McSparin says she got the idea for the project after attending a professional development workshop this summer called the power of positivity.

“I like the idea of letting students know they are appreciated, because we do appreciate them, I just don’t think we say it enough,” she told local news outlet WDAF-TV.

It’s safe to say the challenge was effective.

“I feel special,” said one of the boys in the video. “You should,” said his teacher. “You are special.”

1.What does the underlined word “posed” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. Presented.　　 B. Rejected.

C. Ignored.　　 D. Evaluated.

2.How did the students probably feel when pulled out of the classroom at first?

A. Nervous.　　 B. Thrilled.

C. Curious.　　 D. Encouraged.

3.What inspired McSparin to challenge the project?

A. The trouble caused by students.

B. The need of shooting the video.

C. A seminar named the power of positivity.

D. A program related to students’ interactions.

4.What message does this text mainly convey?

A. Challenge is unavoidable in life.

B. Everyone needs to be appreciated.

C. Positivity outweighs negativity.

D. News media contribute to students’ progress.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

When you start working on something but don't finish it, thoughts of the unfinished work continue to jump into your mind even when you've moved on to other things. Psychologists refer the phenomenon as the Zeigamik effect. The effect was first observed by a Russian psychologist named Bluma Zeigamik. While sitting in a busy restaurant in Vienna, she noted the waiters had better memories of unpaid orders. Once the bill was paid, however, the waiters had difficulty remembering the exact details of the orders.

In one of her studies, participants were asked to complete simple tasks such as putting together puzzles, or solving math problems. Half of the participants were interrupted halfway through these tasks. After an hour-long delay, Zeigamik asked the participants to give an account of what they'd been working on. She discovered that those who had their work interrupted were twice as likely to remember what they had been doing as those who had actually completed the tasks.

We can use this effect to our advantage. For example, if you're struggling to memorize something important, momentary interruptions might actually work to your advantage. Rather than simply remember the information over and over again, review it several times and then take a break. While you're focusing on other things, you'll find yourself mentally returning to the information you were studying.

We often put off tasks until the last moment, only completing them in a rush at the last possible moment. Unfortunately, this tendency can lead to heavy stress and even poor performance. One way to overcome this is to put the Zeigamik effect to work. Start by taking the first step, no matter how small. Once you have begun — but not finished — your work, you'll find yourself thinking of the task until, at last, you finish it. You might not finish it all at once, but each small step you take puts you closer to your final goal.

1.What does the Zeigamik effect refer to?

A.Waiters tend to have good memories.

B.Once interrupted, one will forget things easily.

C.Most people can't focus on one thing for a long time.

D.People remember unfinished tasks better than completed ones.

2.How should we study according to the Zeigamik effect?

A.Repeat over and over again.

B.Divide our study session.

C.Focus on several tasks at a time.

D.Have enough rest before studying.

3.What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.How to get rid of heavy stress.

B.Why we should set a final goal.

C.How to break the habit of delaying work.

D.Why we always complete tasks in a rush.
