16、ve in the Parent Teacher Association. At one of the monthly meetings the topic of discussion was the new curriculum (课程) that the state of Michigan was presenting. Many concerns were voiced at that meeting, and one of them was my own. My concern was that the children were being taught things that we
17、re once taught at a much later age.Lets face it: children today have to learn and adapt to a more technological society, one where if youre not a peak performer youre just not well received. Some say that the children of today have it so much easier than 1020 years ago. Theyre given so much more, no

Weekdays and weekends, there would be children playing, shouting with joy
20、. But now I dont see many children there after school, nor on the weekend. Has the playground gone from our childrens life?I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw a shoe at me when I say play doesnt always need to have a purpose. And it doesnt always have to have a teaching modu

With an exceptionally high fat content, dolphins provide great nutrition for predators who track throughout the ocean. However, dolphins are more troublesome than its worth and most pred
25、ators generally learn to avoid dolphin groups, including sharks. Like elephants, dolphins will circle protectively around the weak members of the group, and attack anything that approaches in a threatening manner. And they can kill sharks. Most predators take one look, and then just swim away.Sharks
26、 and Other Ocean PredatorsDolphins dont worry a lot about being eaten. In general, their only real predator is the shark, and even then only the larger species of sharks dare to attack dolphins. Dolphins have evolvedover a longtime to be pretty tough, so in general even the most dangerous sharks sta

In fact, dolphins and killer whales team up sometimes to catch some prey.The Most Dangerous PredatorAs with most edible（可以食用的）species today, the most dangerous threat is man.Sometimes,
28、dolphins are killed not because they are a source of food, but because they prey on the same fish species as humans. Therefore, many fishermen have killed dolphins specifically because they think dolphins will ruin their catch.Even more, there are some countries that eat cetaceans, including dolphin
29、s. In Japan, the meat of some dolphin species is seen as a delicacy, and can cost up to $ 25 a pound. In Peru and many other Latin American countries where the ocean has been largely short of fish due to overfishing or environmental conditions such as El Nifio, fishermen have turned to catch dolphin

Dolphins are not easy to deal with.DDolphins are quite low in fat.29What does the underlined part in the passage mean?ADolphins and killer whales
31、are not similar in belly parts.BKiller whales and dolphins have something in common concerning bellies.CDolphins and killer whales join hands to hunt and feed.D.

For a group of people, continuous hiccups can seriously harm the quality of life. In
34、the year 2017, the question “What causes hiccups?” was one of the most searched medical questions. Thats how much of an issue these hiccups are and it also reflects that this problem is so widespread in our daily life.Dr. Ali Seifi, a professor of the University of Texas, was tired of the traditiona
35、l methods which are used to remove hiccups, like drinking water or varying breathing techniques. He then came up with the idea that a straw (吸管) could help interrupt hiccups. The straw, which is named HiccAway, requires more suction (吸) power than regular straws in order to draw up liquid. Drinking
36、with this straw can lower the diaphragm (隔膜) while first opening it and then closing it. Doing so stimulates the nerves at the same time, allowing the brain to reset and stop the hiccups.Dr. James Alvarez of the University of Texas gathered 249 volunteers to use the straw and report back their resul
37、ts. When it comes to the effectiveness, this straw received a score of 4.58 out of 5. About 90% of the participants marked it as more effective than traditional home methods. A majority of the participants reported several occasions when they always suffer from hiccups. 53 reported that they suffere
38、d from hiccups weekly and about 11 participants reported daily hiccups issues. The frequent sufferers reported success rates were as high as people who hardly suffer from them.Some people are convinced that how to interrupt hiccups is an issue in which placebo effect (安慰剂效应) could likely work. A lot
39、 of people swear that their own solutions do not end up working for others. It is not clear how this trial could be conducted in a more scientific way.32Why does the author mention the question in paragraph 1?ATo show the possible causes of hiccups.BTo prove hiccuping is common in our life.C. To sho
