His leadership in that conflict earned Jackson national fa

17、peace-lovers.B“I like photography because it captures amazing things that you might not see again,” Timmy Walsh says. He takes pictures of flowers, sunsets and road signs. But those photos dont usually end up in a scrapbook (剪贴簿) or on his bedroom walls.When Timmy was five, he found out that his aun
18、t Bev had lung cancer. He wanted to do something to help her. His first idea was to sell his photos from a lemonade-type stand in front of his house in Pennsylvania. “My mom said it wouldnt work because we were not on a busy street,” Timmy explains.His next idea was to have an art show. Timmy decora
19、ted his home with candles, flowers, and white lights. Then he arranged his photos. Timmys mom, Sheila, remembers: “Our dining-room table was filled, the living room everything was filled with photos.” Friends, family, and Timmys teachers came to the show. He raised more than $300 for cancer research
20、 that night. “Aunt Bev was very happy and excited,” he says.After a local newspaper wrote a story about Timmys photos, a volunteer offered to help him set up a website. As people learned about his cause, called Camera for a Cure, Timmy began receiving invitations to sell his pictures at art gallerie
21、s and fund-raisers. Since then, his work has appeared in more than 20 shows.When Timmy is at a show, he greets each customer and talks about what he was thinking when he took his photos. And he always shares facts about lung cancer. Sometimes donations and sales are slow, but that doesnt bother him.
22、 “It doesnt matter how much money we made because we just raised awareness,” he says. Timmy knows that finding a cure for lung cancer will take time and effort.

Are you always looking for the next big idea? Maybe, like me, you might feel setting up a new company is som
26、ething you might do when youre older, when you have more experience. But thats not always the case. While some of us may feel young adulthood is a time of uncertainly finding our place in the world, sleeping late and partying hard, others are already on a path to great business success. Take the fou
27、nder of Microsoft, Bill Gates, who started his company as a young university student at Harvard in the US. There are many other examples of young entrepreneurs (企业家) who have become hugely successful, proving that theres no minimum age to becoming top dog.But to be the next business executive requir
28、es effort. You need to acquire a keen mind and good business intelligence and above all, you need enthusiasm. Starting a new business comes with an element of risk but if you are able to spot the next big idea, its probably worth giving it a try. Jessica Rose owns a jewelry making business and admit
29、s that “when I first started I had no business training but when I woke up one day, I thought Id really love to be a jewelry designer.” She went on to be a successful young entrepreneur.Being young and in business does have its drawbacks; you may worry you have nothing to bring to the table and that
30、 the people who work for you tend to be older and wiser. Thats what young British entrepreneur Suleman Sacranie found. He started his third business while studying chemistry at university. He says “now Ive got two additional directors who have grey hair” but when they first started he says he could
31、tell they were thinking in the back of their heads, “Ive got a kid sitting in front of me.”You may think setting up a new start-up is easier said than done. As well as ideas, you need financial backing and expert guidance. But if youre studying hard at university and dont have the desire to go into
32、business and make your fortune, keep on studying an education is priceless!29. At the very beginning, whats the authors attitude to the necessity of being aged and experienced in setting up a new company?A. Supportive.B. Negative. C. Impersonal. D. Critical.30.

33、ple in order to show that _.A. doing business needs great effortB. enthusiasm is more important than a keen mindC. business training is not necessaryD. it is easy to set up a new business31. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. Older directors shouldnt be employed if you are young.B.
34、 Age plays an important role in setting up new business.C. If you dont intend to set up business, just focus on your study.D. Education is more valuable than setting up a business.D“Sitting in the same classroom, reading the same textbook, listening to the same teacher, boys and girls receive very d
35、ifferent educations.” In fact, upon entering school, girls perform equal to or better than boys on nearly every measure of achievement, but by the time they graduate from high school or college, they have fallen behind.This performance discrepancy is obvious throughout Canada. In Ontario, Education
36、Minister Janet Ecker said that the testing results of grade 3 and grade 6 in math and reading showed that there are significant discrepancies in achievements and attitudes between boys and girls. In British Columbia, standardized testing indicates that girls perform better than boys at all levels of
37、 reading and writing, while almost matching them in math and science. But why are women less competitive after their graduation from college? The American Association of University Women published a report indicating that females receive less attention from teachers and that the attention that femal
38、e students do receive is often more negative than attention received by boys. In fact, study of the social distinction of gender (性别) within schools shows that girls are improperly educated in the classroom. The social distinction of gender within our schools assures that girls are made aware that t
39、hey are unequal to boys. Every time students are seated or lined up by gender, teachers are telling that girls and boys should be treated differently. When bad behaviors are more tolerated for boys than for girls because “boys will be boys”, schools are treating females unfairly. There is some evide
40、nce that girls are becoming more academically successful than boys, however, examinations of the classroom show that girls and boys continue to be socialized in ways that work against gender equality.32. The underlined word “discrepancy” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by _.A. result B. difference C.
41、 level D. study33. Females become less competitive after graduation from college because they _.A. are not as smart as malesB. do not behave well in classC. are educated in a kind wayD. receive less or bad-quality attention in class34. From the last paragraph, we can infer that _.A. boys are treated
42、 more strictlyB. boys bad behaviors are more easily acceptedC. girls are paid more attention to in classD. girls should be more successful after graduation35. What is the best title for this passage?A. The importance of education B. Different educations for boys and girlsC. Gender inequality in educ

A journalist can work with general issues or specialize in certain issues. However, it is not
44、so easy a career to be a good journalist. 36 37 It is important that you can get on and work quickly and efficiently with the other technical and creative production team members. Time is very literally money in media production so there is no room for teamwork difficulties. When there are tough dea
45、dlines or late nights everyone must get together to complete the task at hand. 38 For example, can you build up a working relationship very quickly with people who you may be meeting for the first time?You also need good written and oral communication skills and must have a concise writing style wri
46、ting essays is not good evidence for this! Employers will expect you to have a good knowledge of current affairs and a curious nature, and to be flexible especially with regard to working hours. 39 So how experienced are you in putting in extra hours?Another key quality of journalists is the ability
47、 to ask the right questions at interview! 40 It is a waste of time and energy to ask the questions that you can find in books on interview skills. If you research a company well enough, you will find a number of questions naturally arising that you wish to be answered.You should, though, concentrate
48、 on questions that show your interest in, and motivation to do, the job itself, rather than the rewards it will bring.A. Many demands can be made on your time.B. Would you like to be a productive journalist? C. What qualities do you need to be a journalist?D. Curiosity is a good character for many c
