Kids need to move in school

Many years ago, when my girls were in primary school, they were crazy about the dance breaks they would occasionally have during the school day. Their teachers would put on a video, which encouraged the kids to get up and dance, and then they' d get back to work.1. Many teachers are including some form of movement into the school day.

A recent research, published in the journal Pediatrics, involved more than 10,000 children between the ages of 4 and 13. 2. Susan Kamin, leader of the research, said, “Activity breaks during the school day also lead to fewer behavioral issues, not to mention cutting down on stress and anxiety."

Breakthrough Magnet School, Connecticut, is in its third year working with the National Association of Physical Literacy. Principal Julie Goldstein said her third-and fourth-graders who are actively engaged in the physical programme are the highest-scoring students in math and reading in the district.3. For this school year, not one student from this group has been referred to her office for a conversation. Before the programme, she might have had one or two office coversations with some of them every month.

4. “I know lots of teachers who say, 'Yeah, I wish I had more time to do this,'” Kamin said, “Even in schools that can find the time, there is still some opposition (反对)because it's a departure from the way things used to be. It's a big change for some of the teachers.5.Yet the schools that have made the change see tremendous results. So how do you move the needle?"

A.My kids' teachers are certainly not alone.

B.They're not sure whether to make that leap.

C.The challenge, though, is persuading more schools to take action.

D.Teach children the basics of movement so that they can stay active for life.

E.Beyond the academical (学业的) benefits, there are benefits outside the classroom.

F.It shows that kids who get extra physical activity in school do better in cognitive(认知的) performance.

MUMBAI, India —The children in their party clothes on the stage were very excited when they received the award. And the two of them said, "It’s unbelievable!"

Nine-year-old, Rubina Ali, and Azharuddin Ismail, 10, were living a very different life and obviously loving every minute of it. The two, some of the child stars of the Oscar-winning Slum dog Millionaire(《贫民窟的百万富翁》)movie, know the Indian slums very well. That was where they grew up, and it is where they will return at the end of their Hollywood dream trip.

But before going back home, there was an interview with the host, Ryan Seacrest. During the interview they smiled and repeated their disbelief in what was happening to them. To their surprise, their movie won first place in the Oscars. When the two received the award, it was late morning in the children’s home city of Mumbai, where family, friends and many fellow residents of the slums watched the result from Hollywood.

"I don’t really know what the Oscars are," Rubina’s mother said. "I’m just glad my daughter looks happy, though she told me she missed Indian food."

"Our children lead a dog’s life," Rubina’s mother said, pointing out the rubbish everywhere, the open drains (下水道) and the lack of education opportunities.

In a few days they will be back in Mumbai and back in the slums which are their home. Fortunately, according to media reports, the movie’s director, Danny Boyle, has promised to help the children chosen from the slum and make sure they will go to a proper school.

The two don’t need to worry about their daily lives because of the Oscar success of Slum dog Millionaire. But the poverty and lack of opportunity —the central theme of the movie—is always all around.

1.Which of the following is NOT true about the two children?

A. They were the only two child stars in the movie, Slum dog Millionaire.

B. They had been having a difficult life in India.

C. They were interviewed before they went back home.

D. They were both excited about receiving the award.

2.What can we infer from the text?

A. The two children have played in other movies before.

B. Rubina may not get used to the American food.

C. Rinoms’s mother also went to the Hollywood.

D. They will travel to other countries before returning home.

3.What will happen to the two children after they return to India?

A. They will go back to the miserable life.

B. They will play in movies as famous actors.

C. They will have a better education.

D. They will leave school to learn acting.

4.According to the author, the value of the movie is that ________.

A. it has been given an Oscar Award

B. it has made the two children famous

C. its central theme has become known to the public

D. it has become popular all over the world

Ever since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, gentically mondified (GM, 转基因) foods have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the word,mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food crisis. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would ,is it the best solutiorr?

Despite what it promiises,GM　 technology actually has not increased the production potential　　 of any corp. In fact

Studies show that the most　 crown GM croo.

GM soybeans, has suffered reduced productivity. For instance, a report than analysed nearly two decades of research on mojor GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.

Something else, however, has been on the rise, While GM seeds are expensive, GM companics tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides（杀虫剂）. On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use compared to traditional crops. “ The　 promise was that you could use less chemicals and boost production. But nether is true,” said Bill Christison, President of the US National Farm Coalition.

At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and politics. These indeed deserve our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a 2008 World Bank report.

As a matter of fact ,scientists see better ways to feed the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are available, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.

1.The author develops the second paragraph mainly　　　　 .

A. by classification B. by comparison

C. by example D. by process

2.What does the underlined word “boost ” in the third paragraph probably mean?

A. Control. B. Evaluate C. Obtain. D. Increase.

3.GM companies promise farmers that they will benefit from ______________.

A. practicing “green” farming B. use of less chemicals

C. fair distribution of their crops D. using more crops for fuel

4.Which of the following best describes the attitude of the author towards GM technology?

A. Optimistic B. Defensive C. Disapproving D. Casual
