26、er for 17 years and I wish more people would get into special educationThe position is very demanding and there is always a shortage of special education teachersIt is not an easy profession to get into. One needs a BA in education and then a special education certificate(证书) such as a certificate i

28、iggest rewardHowever, the paperwork is huge with requesting more year after yearIf you are good at doing about ten things at the same time, then you may be the right person for the job. No day is the same. Parent and government expectations are high. A sense of empathy(the ability of feeling and sha
29、ring another persons feelings) and one hundred percent prepared to help your students is important. Also, if you are a special education teacher working in the high school, it is your job to make sure your special education students are able to be employed after they graduate, and then the special e
30、ducation teacher needs to stay in touch with the special students a year after they graduate to make sure they are employed and can support themselves. Education is a very political field next to working in politics. One needs to know what to say, when to say it and make sure it is a benefit for eve
31、ryone involved. It is a mixture of knowing medical diagnosis and teaching with that in mind. Your record needs to be perfect, and it would also help to be a very strong Christian(天主教徒)because you will need to pray often to yourself. This position is not about the money but more of a service.56To bec

34、sed to do large amounts of paperworkDHe tries to encourage people to become special teachers BNo one knows for certain why people dream, but some dreams might be connected to the mental processes that help us learn. In a recent study, scientists found a connection between nap-time (午睡时间) dreams and
35、better memory in people who were learning a new skill. “I was astonished by this finding,” Robert Stickgold told Science News. He is a cognitive neuroscientist at Harvard Medical School who worked on the study of-how the brain and nervous system work, and cognitive studies look at how people learn a
36、nd reason. So a cognitive neuroscientist may study the brain processes that help people learn.In the study, 99 college students between the ages of 18 and 30 each spent an hour on a computer, trying to get through a virtual maze (虚拟迷宫). The maze was difficult, and the study participants had to start
37、 in a different place each time they tried - making it even more difficult. They were also told to find a particular picture of a tree and remember where it was.For the first 90 minutes of a five-hour break, half of the participants stayed awake and half were told to take a short nap. Participants w
38、ho stayed awake were asked to describe their thoughts. Participants who took a nap were asked about their dreams before sleep and after steep - and they were awakened within a minute of sleep to describe their dreams.About a dozen of the 50 people who slept said their dreams were connected to the ma
39、ze. Some dreamed about the music that had been playing when they were working; others said they dreamed about seeing people in the maze. When these people tried the computer maze again, they were generally able to find the tree faster than before their naps. However, people who had other dreams, or
40、people who didnt take a nap, didnt show the same improvement.Stickgold suggests the dream itself doesnt help a person learn - its the other way around.60It is a cognitive scientists job to study_ .Ahow people dream and learnCthe structure of the nervous systemBwhether someone is reasonableDthe proce
41、ss of understanding61The purpose of the study college by 99 college students is to .Afind the hidden tree in the maze Btest the design of a difficult virtual mazeCtrain peoples memory Dsee how dreams and learning are connected62The better performance in working out the maze is connected with .Ahow p
42、eople dream Bwhat people dream Cwhen people dream D where people dream63The writer will probably continue to talk about in the 6th paragraph.Ahow learning process caused the dreamBhow a dream helps a person learnChow dreams and learning influence each otherDhow to improve peoples memoryC“Image is ev
43、erything.” An entire industry has been built upon the assumption that image is everything, but when it comes down to it, an appealing image is not enough. If there is no substance(事实) behind the image, the product, service or person will fail eventually.First of all, one should consider how importan
44、t image is in the selling of products and services. Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection. Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the images created by the advertising agencies. But if the product or service does not li
45、ve up to the image that was created, the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back. For example, the Arthur Andersen accounting firm had spent decades building up an image of trustworthiness. But the recent scandal (丑闻) showed that behind that image, it cheated in busi
46、ness practices. Despite the previous positive image, the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit. Although the image had been nearly perfect, the reality behind the image has led to the downfall of the world famous accounting firm.Similarly, pers
47、onal advisers can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars. Putting out positive news releases, making sure that only the best photographs are published, and ensuring that the person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons.
48、 But once again, history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortune. With people, just as with products and services, image is certainly important, but without positive substanc
49、e behind the image, failure is close.To summarize, it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success, whether that image is related to selling a product or service or to the “selling” of a person. But image is only half of the equation. What lies behind that image is every bit as
50、 important as the image itself the person or product must deliver on that image or there is little chance for long-term success.64.The downfall of the Arthur Andersen accounting firm is due to _.A. its dishonesty in business B. its previous images C. its bad management D. its poor service65.Why did
51、some famous people fall from grace?A. Their images were not well built up B. They failed to live up to their images.C. They felt much pressure from the public D. They paid little attention to fame and fortune. 66.The structure of the passage is _.A: ArgumentP: PointC: Conclusion67. The author tries
52、to argue that _.A. image creates everything B. image is the key to successC. truth is unlikely ever to be equalled D. truth and image are equally importantDWarning: reading too much Cinderella(灰姑娘) to your daughter may damage her emotional health in later life. A paper to be developed at the interna
53、tional congress of cognitive psychotherapy(认知心理疗法) in Gothenburg suggests a link between the attitudes of women abused(虐待) by their parents and early exposure to the wrong sort of fairy tales. It says girls who identified with Cinderella, Rapunzel(莴苣女孩) and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast were more l
54、ikely to stay in destructive relationships as adults.The theory was developed by Susan Darker Smith, a psychotherapist at the University of Derby. She interviewed 67 female abuse survivors and found that 61 put up with severe abuse because they believed they could change their partners with patience
55、, composition and love. The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as children. Hardly any of the women in a control group, who had not experienced abuse, thought they could change their partners in this way. The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as childre
56、n. These women and men said they would leave a relationship rather than put up with abuse from a partner. Ms Darker Smith found the abused women were much more likely to identify with Cinderella and other submissive female characters in fairytales, who were later rescued by a stranger prince or hero
57、.Although most girls heard the stories, damage appeared to be done to those who adopted the characters as role models. “They believe if their love is strong enough they can change their parents behaviors,” she said.” Overexposure in children to stories that emphasize the transformational qualities o
58、f love may make women believe they can change their partners.” For example, they might never have understood the obvious flaw in the story of Rapunzel, who remained locked in a high tower until rescued by a knight on a white horse, who broke the door down. “The question,” said Ms Darker Smith, “is w
59、hy she did not break the door down herself.”68The passage is especially intended for _.Aparents with young daughters Bgirls who like reading fairy stories Cgirls who think they can change their partners Dparents with grown-up daughters69Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast are sim
60、ilar in that _.AThey all married some princes B. They all changed their partners with loveCThey were all abused by their partners DThey all put up with abuse70Which of the following statements is true of the women in a control group?AThey dont believe in fairy tales.BThey dont believe in the transfo
61、rmational qualities of love.CThey have also experienced abuse.DThey survived abuse.71What does the underlined word “submissive”in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?Akind-hearted Bpassive Cgentle Deasy-going EKings College Summer SchoolKings College Summer School is an annual(每年的) training program for
