Local education departments have also issued a notice, that is, to organize online teaching and create a network platform (平台) , where necessary courses will
20、 be shown every day, and online teaching will be given by excellent teachers of the subject, and students can learn at home through computer or mobile network.It should be said that such a method is very good. It can not only keep students indoors and not worry about the infection (感染) of the diseas
21、e, but also make them study at home, improve their learning ability, and truly achieve“no suspension of classes”.

A Method to Make Parents Worried CI know it may be hard to convince you, but let me try: Dont kill the next spider you see in your home.Why? Because spiders are an important part of nature and our indoor
26、 ecosystemas well as being fellow organisms(生物) in their own right.People like to think of their living places as safely isolated from the outside world, but many types of spiders can be found inside. Some are accidentally trapped, while others are short-term visitors. Some species even enjoy the gr
27、eat indoors, where they happily live out their lives and make more spiders. These spiders are usually secretive, and almost all you meet are neither aggressive nor dangerous. And they may be providing services like eating pestssome even eat other spiders.My colleagues and I conducted a visual survey
28、 of 50 North Carolina homes and found that every single house we visited was home to spiders. The most common species we encountered were cobweb spiders and cellar spiders. They simply eat anything they can catch. Spiders regularly capture annoying pests and even disease-carrying insectsfor example,
29、 mosquitoes. Theres even a species of jumping spider that prefers to eat blood-filled mosquitoes in African homes. So killing a spider doesnt just cost it its life, it may take an important predator out of your home.Spiders are not out to get you and actually prefer to avoid humans; we are much more
30、 dangerous to them than vice versa. Bites from spiders are extremely rare. Although there are a few medically important species like widow spiders and recluses, even their bites are uncommon and rarely cause serious issues.If you truly cant stand that spider in your house, apartment, garage, or wher
31、ever, instead of killing it, try to capture it and release it outside.

33、 author?A. Because killing them costs much.B. Because they do more good than harm.C. Because most of them arent poisonous.D. Because they just stay in our houses temporarily.30. What should be done to get rid of spiders from your house?A. Trap them and starve them. B. Capture them and kill them.C. C
34、apture them and release them outside. D. Trap them and feed them with mosquitoes.31. What does the underlined word stomach in the last paragraph mean?A. Eat.B. Stand.C. Kill.D. Capture.DIts often said of British people that they are very aware of each others social rank. Britons can usually work out
35、 a fellow countrymans background from the way they speak or dress, and may even treat them differently based on this. But although this may have been truer in the past than it is today, visitors to Britain say that they still notice it. The comic play Pygmalion (1913), by the Irishman George Bernard
36、 Shaw (1856-1950), is a famous exploration of the importance of social rank in British society.The main story of the play concerns a working class girl, Eliza Doolittle, a flower seller from London. Two upper class gentlemen try to see if they can get Doolittle to appear like an upper class lady aft
37、er sending her for elocution lessons. Professor Henry Higgins, a language expert, says it can be done; his friend Colonel Pickering says that its impossible. Even so, Higgins sets out to teach Eliza how to “speak properly”.Of course, Eliza isnt a lump of clay; she has her own will. She can see that
38、its in her best interest to go along with Higgins plan to “improve herself”. She wants to be able to sell flowers in a shop rather than on the street. After the training, Eliza proves that a flower girl can pass herself off as a lady at a ball. She is a triumph (赢家), and Higgins has won his bet.But
39、what happens next? Eliza has her future to worry about. She may be able to fool the upper class into thinking shes one of them, but she isnt really one of them.Shaw seems to be telling us that social rank is about more than the way someone talks-its about wealth and privilege. The whole experiment p
40、roves the idea that accents and classes are very superficial (肤浅的). The way one speaks and dresses are only markers of class. The class system itself, however, is something completely different.32. What can we learn about speaking and dressing from Paragraph 1?A. They determine Britons social rank.
