13、t rank in the martial art and combat sport judo(柔道 ). Fukuda is now one of only four living people whove earned the tenth-degree (or dan) black belt. Throughout history, only sixteen people have ever achieved this honor.Fukuda began practicing judo in 1935 and is the only surviving student of its fo
14、under, Kano Jiguro. Urged by her teacher, she learned English to help spread judo internationally.During a time when getting married, building a family, and becoming a housewife was the standard, Fukuda went against tradition, opting out of marriage to pursue the martial art.“All I did was judo . th
15、is was my marriage,” Fukuda reflected tearfully to the San Francisco Chronicle. “This is when my life destiny was set. I just never imagined how long this road would be.”She described the Jiguros school, known as the Kodokan, as “old-fashioned and sexist(性别歧视的) about belts and ranks”. In fact, an or
16、der that prevented women from achieving any higher than a fifth-degree black belt kept Fukuda at that level for thirty years. She was finally promoted to sixth dan in 1972 when a womans division was created.Fukuda said she approached judo and her life with the intention to “be gentle, kind and beaut
17、iful, yet firm and strong, both mentally and physically”. Fukuda said this kind of beauty is decidedly not external (外部的 ). “ A kind soul is inner beauty,” she explained to the paper. “I believe this is true beauty All my life this has been my dream.”Dream realized, the 98-year-old Sensei Keiko Fuku
18、da continues to teach judo three times a week at a womans judo.21.

22、loyees seemed happy.Then,I asked him how he thought I did that.“Im sure you treat them well, ” he replied.“Thats half of it, ”I said.“Do you know what the other half is?”He didnt have the answer.So what is the answer?I fired the unhappy people.People usually laugh at this point.I wish I were joking.
23、Im not.I have learned the long,hard and frustrating way that as a manager you cannot make everyone happy.Good management requires training,consulting and patience.Dont get me wrong.This doesnt happen a lot.Theres no joy in the act of firing someone.And its not always the employees faultthere are man

31、chnology to help push back against blood shortages. One new plan, where donors are sent automatic text messages telling them when their blood has actually been used, has caught the public eye. People who donateinitiallyreceive a thank you text when they give blood, but they get another message when
32、their blood makes it into somebody elses veins.The service says the messages give donors more positive feedback about how theyve helped their fellow citizens-which encourages them to donate again. “Its a great feeling to know you made such a big difference and maybe even saved someone elses life,” s
33、ays Ms. BlomWiberg. “We get a lot of visibility in social media and traditional media thanks to the SMS. But above all we believe it makes our donors come back to us, and donate again.”During National Blood Donation Week street signs and shop fronts around the country are having the letter “O” and “
34、A” quietly removed, representing the missing blood types. “We simply cant ignore the fact there has been a severe reduction in the number of new donors coming forwarda trend seen across the world,” Jon Latham said. “While we can meet the needs of patients now, its important that we strengthen the do
35、nor base for the future.”In Stockholm, residents can go to the local blood services website and see a live chart of how much blood is left. “The same info as we have internally is shown externally,” says Ms. Blom Wiberg. The thinking is that when stocks run low, people will respond if they know ther
36、e is a problem.Other initiatives rolled out in some areas include letting donors sign a contract agreeing that authorities are allowed to aggressively bother them by text message, Facebook, and email until they donate blood. The messages include light-hearted threats, such as: “We wont give up until
37、 you bleed.”29. According to Jon, theres a trend that _.A. more countries are strengthening their donor baseB. the patients need for blood cant be satisfiedC. blood types of O and A are urgently needed D. fewer people donate blood around the world30.

Swedish blood donors get text messages as feedback and encouragement.DA recent report on online education, made by SRI International for th
40、e Department of Education, has a serious academic title, but a most interesting conclusion: “Students in online learning conditions performed better than those receiving face-to-face instruction.”The report examined the research on online and traditional classroom teaching from 1996 to 2008. Some of
41、 it was in K-12 settings, but most of the studies were in colleges and adult continuing education programs.Over the 12 years, the report found 99 studies in which there were comparisons of online and classroom performance for the same courses. The result of the Department of Educations research show
42、ed that usually, students doing some or all of the course online would rank a little higher than the classroom students with little but meaningful difference.“The importance of the study lies in showing that online learning today is not just better than nothing it actually tends to be better than tr
43、aditional instruction.” said Barbara Means, the studys lead author and an educational psychologist at SRI International.This hardly means that well be saying goodbye to classrooms. But the report does suggest that online education could be set to develop sharply over the next few years.Until fairly
44、recently, online education totaled to little. That has really changed with the arrival of web-based video, instant messaging and teamwork tools.The real promise of online education, experts say, is providing learning experiences that are more suitable for individual students than is possible in clas
45、srooms. That allows more “learning by doing,” which many students find more attractive and useful.“We are at a turning point in online education,” said Philip R. Regier, the leader of Arizona State Universitys Online and Extended Campus program.The biggest near-term growth, Mr. Regier predicts, will
46、 be in continuing education programs.32. From the text we know that _.A. most of the studies were done in high schools.B. the report was based on more than 100 studies.C. the studies were carried out for more than 20 years.D. the difference between online and traditional teaching is not big.33.
