9、the Disability groups and come with their children.

10、al palsy and spends his time at one practicing schoolwork as he would like to learn English. The heart of these groups is to bring families together to allow them time to share and learn from each other.Each session (课) includes activities and games as well as physical therapy (治疗). Last week I watc
11、hed in amazement as the mother of Mphaso, a young girl with cerebral palsy who has learned to walk, came alongside seven-year-old Steven who does not walk, picked him up and started showing Stevens mum how to safely stand him up and support him while encouraging him to take steps.

18、stress the Disability groups achievements.D. To encourage families to join the Disability groups.COver the past 20 years, mandatory (强制的) community service policies have come to many U.S. high schools. Many states and districts have their own regulations. Some schools require students to complete 75
19、 to 100 hours of community service to graduate. Other school officials allow youth to receive course credits. But school districts struggle to find the best approach to bringing a real-world aspect to learning.Mandatory community service programs were implemented to help connect youth to others and
20、to teach them how to contribute to their community. However, the idea of mandatory community service has been the source of controversy (争议). Parents and students have filed lawsuits challenging the legality of mandatory service policies. Supporters of this view argue that mandating community servic
21、e will lead youth to believe that they should only help others when they receive an immediate benefit in return, and thus ultimately discourage volunteering later in life. But legal scholars have concluded that mandating community service is legally permissible.Does mandatory service undermine (削弱)
22、motivation to participate in voluntary service? Most research either has found that mandatory service is linked with heightened intention to engage in future volunteering or has not found links between mandatory service and intention to volunteer. The result may seem contradictory to other developme

One possibility is that mandatory service may prevent intention to engage in future service if youth reflect on their experience and do not find any value in participation other than to finish the m

Volunteer experiences that provide teenagers with an opportunity to grow, to make friends, to reflect on social problems, and to develop a sen
25、se of purpose provide them with greater benefits (including greater intention to volunteer in the future) compared to those without these opportunities. Thus, mandated service that involves organizational tasks (e.g., clearing floors, filing papers) and other types of activities that do not provide
26、youth with high-quality experiences, may not be serving their purpose. That is to say, the focus of parents, teachers, and school officials should be on how to organize high-quality service activities.28. What do we know about mandatory community service policies?A. They have a long history.B. Commu
27、nities require the policies.C. Schools practice them differently.D. Schools know the best way to adopt them.29. Why do some people disagree with providing mandatory community service?A. It may cause a misunderstanding of the value of volunteering.B. It may make students value money instead of servin
28、g.C. It may waste students learning time.D. It may be in a sense against the law.30. What can we learn from most research mentioned in paragraph 3?A. Motivation in mandatory service is a key factor.B. Developmental theory may be in favor of mandatory service.C. People may get different feelings from
29、 the same service experience.D. Little evidence shows mandatory service discourages future volunteering.31. Which of the following might the author agree with?A.

30、 Volunteering should be a must for graduation.DYoure walking along a busy city street. All around you are the sounds of subway trains, traffic, and music coming from storefronts. Suddenly, you realize one of the sounds youre hearing is someone speaking, and that you are listening in a different way
31、as you pay attention to what they are saying.Scientists have understood for some time that when we hear sounds of understandable language our brains react differently than they do when we hear non-speech sounds or people talking in languages we do not know. When we hear someone talking in a familiar
32、 language, our brain quickly pays attention, processes the speech sounds by turning them into words, and understands what is being said.In a new study, Maryland researchers mapped and analyzed participants neural (神经的) brain activity while listening to a single talker telling a story. The study show
33、ed that the brain quickly recognizes the phonetic (语音的) sounds and processes them into linguistic information in a highly specialized and automated way. The brain has to keep up with people speaking at a rate of about three words a second. It achieves this, in part, by distinguishing speech from oth
34、er kinds of sounds in about a tenth of a second after the sound enters the ears.In another part of the study, participants heard a mixture of two speakers in a“cocktail party”scenario (场景), and were told to listen to one and ignore the other. The participants brains only processed language for the c
35、onversation which they were told to pay attention to, not the one they were told to ignore.This study lays the foundation for additional research into how our brains interpret sounds as words. For example, how and when does the brain decide which word is being said?32. What is the purpose of paragra
