70、In the gym of Croxteth Community School, Liverpool, 50 boys have completed a course on boxing that is seen as a sign for its return to state schools.The Schools Amateur Boxing Association (SABA) has developed the Kid Gloves scheme, a non-contact (非接触)version of the sport where outside coaches teach
71、a range of basic skills.Chris Andrews, assistant secretary of the SABA, said the scheme was regarded as a way of changing the decline in boxing in state schools which began 25 years ago.Safety fears and the poor image of professional boxing had accelerated the sports decline. Concern was worsened by
72、 incidents such as the death of the professional boxer Bradley Stone. But the Croxteth example was winning more supporters. Mr. Andrews said the idea was particularly well received in the north-east of England.He said, “I think there is a genuine recognition that there are aspects to boxing, if it i
73、s controlled and properly run, that really is very beneficial to children. This scheme takes away the dangers. I hope boxing can be promoted throughout the country in a more coordinated(协调的) way.” Such an idea horrifies such groups as the British Medical Association (BMA) and the British Safety Coun
74、cil, both critics of the idea.Dr Jeffrey Cundy, the joint author of a BMA report on boxing, accepted that the scheme in Liverpool was non-contact, but he was still opposed. He said, “We feel that children should still not be introduced to boxing, because they will then be encouraged to take up an ac
75、tivity which is uniquely dangerous when actual contact takes place.”He added, “There is a whole range of sports which will teach the discipline that comes from boxing without the dangers. We see this reintroduction in schools as an unhealthy development.”At the 800-pupil Croxteth school, Steve Stewa
76、rt, head of PE, said boxing had helped to improve self-confidence, self-discipline, self-awareness and self-respect in those taking part. Everybody could get involved and, because all were starting from scratch, the improvements could be quickly seen.Gerry Thompson and Tony Curry, both 12, have enjo
77、yed the boxing sessions and say they will both join a local boxing club. “I thought it was brilliant,” said Gerry. “I would rather be a professional boxer than a footballer. Its more enjoyable.”【文章解读】本文是教育类新闻报道。文章主要讲述了人们对利物浦的Croxteth团体学校改进拳击课程的不同看法。59. According to the text, the Kid Gloves scheme is

83、be finishing a work report, changing clothes when you have a train to catch, or perhaps even lying in bed when youve promised yourself youll work out. Sound familiar? You arent alone. We all procrastinate (拖延) sometimes, especially when it comes to things we arent really fond of. A study revealed th
84、at we spend about 218 minutes procrastinating every day, which amounts to 55 days of lost time each year. We might not think these figures particularly worthy of worry, but when we look at the overall impact of procrastination on our lives, its a different story. Not only does this cost financial lo
85、ss, it also affects peace of mind. In general, people who continually put things off are unhappier, as well as being less wealthy and healthy.So why do we do it? “When we avoid taking action, were really avoiding pain,” explains psychiatrist (精神病学家) Phil Stutz. For most of us, pain avoidance isnt li
86、mited to one situation. It applies to almost anything thats painful. Most of us try our best never to leave a comfort zone. Thats why we sacrifice something much more valuable: time. “Our time on earth is limited,” Stutz adds. “Every moment is an opportunity well never have again. Procrastinators ac
87、t as if they have all the time in the world. But deep down, they know theyre wasting parts of their life. The trouble is, most of them dont know how to free themselves.”One way he says we can reach this level of freedom is by overcoming the pain of avoidance using daily visualization (想象). “Picture
88、the pain youre avoiding as a black cloud in front of you,” Stutz says. “Notice how youre tied of the ways this pain has held you back in life, and tell yourself that youre determined to conquer it. Then its time to get through the cloud and to the other side where youre free.” It is obvious that thi
89、s tool works when we want to procrastinate. We then get into the habit of moving “towards” pain instead of away from it.Experts insist: procrastinators can change their behavior, it takes a lot of self-work but in the end, its worth the effort. And start today, not tomorrow.【文章解读】该文章是生活类文章阅读。作者分析了人们

97、ina, and his colleagues have shown that it can have lasting physiological effects too. They tracked 1,420 nine-year-olds right through their teens. Each child was seen up to nine times during the study and asked about bullying. The team then measured levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) in their blood
98、.
