3、ght to call for an ambulance yet.”After speaking to the emergency services, Jane started finding out what had happened and what injuries the young girl called Jenny had.

4、re twisted (扭曲) underneath her.“She hadnt been wearing a helmet (头盔) when she got knocked down, and I thought that she should not be moved as I couldnt be sure about a spinal injury (脊椎损伤), but after looking her over and checking the circulation in her injured arm I did feel fairly confident that sh
5、e had escaped relatively unhurt.“As we were waiting for an ambulance, the amount of pain the girl was in was increasing. To distract (分散注意力) her and minimize the risk of her going into shock I kept her talking. She held my hand tightly when the pain got too much and this helped. I told her I could h
6、andle it we laughed about that,” describes Jane.Later, a doctor from the local hospitals ICU stopped at the scene too. The ICU doctor decided that Jenny should lie on her back, making her much more comfortable until the emergency services arrived.Thinking back, Jane says: “For me, knowing that in a

18、ize their study potentialCSome people say summer is the time when teachers should get more pay. But not everyone is grateful to teachers for keeping kids occupied (无空闲的) between August and June: Washington state representative Liz Pike has written a Facebook post, titled “A life in the day of a WA s
19、tate representative,” and responded to teachers complaints of rising costs of living. The post has received criticism for being anti-teacher. After reading her post, I feel that Liz Pike should rethink her criticism of public school teaching and avoid comparing it to the private school.Many of us te
20、achers would certainly like teaching to be more like the private school. We see nothing wrong with fair pay for fair performance. In fact, performance is the name of the game. With standardized testing popular throughout K-12 education, teachers are some of the most analyzed and performance-measured
21、 employees in the United States. Liz Pike is very angry that teachers want raises even while test scores are dropping. Well, how are we supposed to have discipline (纪律) in the classroom when our hands are tied and we can hardly do anything with naughty students or fail students who are not prepared
22、to move on to the next grade?Teachers would love to be able to turn education around and improve student performance. But we cant, and we should not suffer for it. Unlike private school businesses, public schools cannot turn away “customers”. A private school business serves customers who walk throu
23、gh the door of their own free will, while public schools have to educate students who only attend because courts say they must. She says those who are “uninspired” by a lack of a cost of living increase should give up teaching. Is this the message that she thinks should be sent to the students whose
24、 academic performance she claims (声称) to care so much about? That “if you love it youll shut up and not stand up for yourself”? I think teachers should stand up for themselves and I also think supporting teachers can make teachers teach children how to stand up for themselves.28. What is Liz Pikes o
25、pinion?A. Teachers should be treated equally.B. Teachers shouldnt ask for a pay rise.C. Teachers should accept public criticism.D. Teachers shouldnt give students much homework.29. What problem do teachers in public schools face in the authors opinion?A. Their performance is not measured.B. Many sch
26、ools are becoming private.C. They cant master the correct teaching method.D. They are under the control of a system of rules.30. The underlined word “customers” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to _.A. students B. teachersC. clever businessmen D. private schools31. It can be inferred from the last par
27、agraph that _.A. some teachers are not excellent enoughB. supporting teachers is helpful to studentsC. teachers shouldnt complain about their living costsD. Liz Pike doesnt care about students academic performanceDWolves use many different types of communication. One way they communicate is through
28、sound. The howl (嗥叫) is a well-known method wolves use to communicate with each other. While howling, wolves often change their voices a lot. As a result, people are sometimes “fooled” into believing that there are more wolves than there really are. People have often guessed, after listening to howl
29、s, that a pack of wolves contained up to 20 individuals, when there were only 3 or 4. Some people have thought that wolves do that on purpose, in order to fool neighboring packs into believing that there are more animals present than there really are. However, many naturalists and wolf biologists do
30、 not accept that idea. Wolves seem to howl for many reasons. They often howl before they go on a hunt, possibly to get the pack together, and they often begin to howl after a successful hunt. That suggests that howling serves to bring a pack together, since wolves often become separated from each ot
31、her during a hunt. They do not, however, howl while they are hunting. In addition, a wolf may howl alone if it is having trouble locating its pack. Surprisingly, pack members seem to recognize each others voices, since individual wolves often have their own way of howling. Wolves will also howl in s
32、adness after the death of their mates.Wolf packs may also howl to communicate with other packs, as two different wolf packs will sometimes answer each others howls. Wolves will also often answer the calls of humans who are pretending to howl like wolves. Wolves howl less often during May and June th
33、an they do during the rest of the year. This may be because that is the time that packs are most likely to have young pups (幼崽) present. It is possible that wolf packs who have young pups present often keep silent so they do not attract attention to their location, since pups can be easily hurt by p

We can learn from the text that _.A. wolves dont answer humans callsB. a wolf pack consists of about 20 wolvesC. wolves always stay together when h
