She was given a little box containing some sand and one ant. Though the teacher insisted that this ant
18、was very special, Rita felt disappointed. Most of her classmates felt sorry for her. Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet. However, Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job

20、ical rain forest, where we will investigate all kinds of insects.

Andrew had worked so hard in the last 18 months and landed some great accounts for Braer and Hopkins Advertising Agency. Of cours
26、e, he deserved a wage increase. The thought of walking into Larchmonts office left Andrew weak in the knees. Late in the afternoon he was finally courageous enough to approach his superior. To his delight and surprise, the ever-frugal（一向节俭的）Harvey Larchmont agreed to give Andrew a raise! Andrew arri
27、ved home that eveningdespite breaking all city and state speed limitsto a beautiful table set with their best china, and candles lit.

29、r, Andrew was on his way to the kitchen to get dessert when he observed that a second card had slipped out of Tinas pocket onto the floor. He bent forward to pick it up. It read: “Dont worry about not getting the raise! You do deserve one! You are a wonderful provider and I prepared this dinner to s
30、how you just how much I love you even though you did not get the increase.” Suddenly tears swelled in Andrews eyes. Total acceptance!

35、rn out to be unfoundedD. unconditional love brings courage and strengthCTeaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father we
36、nt by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute” someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period I
37、spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. Im Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was t
38、here. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wr
39、ote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required. “All right then,” I said. “Okay, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts a
40、nd opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forests of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, youll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the

45、ports accounts for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports to attract views from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.An attraction of sports programs fo
46、r the major U.S. media company is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times durin
47、g the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming.Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stati
48、ons did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.Golf and
49、tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings(收视率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawy
50、ers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to
51、pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs dont need high ratings to stay on the air.41. Television sports programs on weekend afternoons _.A. result in more sport eventsB. get

In my opinion, it can be beneficial if parents accompany thei
82、r children to the university on the first day of school. Lacking experience, many freshmen may feel nervous and frightened when they arrive at a place that is not familiar to them. The company of their parents may calm them down. Instead of carrying things for their children, parents can give them g
83、uidance and necessary reminders. However, there can be disadvantages, too. Depending on their parents too much, the freshmen will lose the opportunity to train themselves. Moreover, they may leave a bad impression on others, especially the teachers, thinking that they are unable to handle their own
84、business. As for me, I prefer to go to the university by myself. It is helpful to gain new life experience. I will be more independent, more cautious and more sociable without parents company. After all, it is I not my parents that am going to the university. To sum up, going to the university on their own is helpful and necessary to all fresh students.
