6.Papa,as a son of a dirt-poor farmer,left school early and went to work in a factory,for education was for the rich then.So,the world became his school.With great interest,he read everything he could lay his hands on,listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown."There's so much to learn,"he'd say."Though we're born stupid,only the stupid remain that way."He was determined that none of his children would be denied ( 拒絕) an education.
Thus,Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day.Though,as children,we thought this was crazy,it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request.And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned.We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant,it was never taken lightly.Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment,always to the point.
Then came the moment-the time to share the day's new learning.
Papa,at the head of the table,would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine,ready to listen.
"Felice,"he'd say,"tell me what you learned today."
"I learned that the population of Nepal is…"
Silence.
Papa was thinking about what was said,as if the salvation(拯救)of the world would depend upon it."The population of Nepal.Hmm.Well…"he'd say."Get the map; let's see where Nepal is."And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.
This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn.Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.
As children,we thought very little about these educational wonders.Our family,however,was growing together,sharing experiences and participating in one another's education.And by looking at us,listening to us,respecting our input,affirming(肯定) our value,giving us a sense of dignity,Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.
Later during my training as a future teacher,I studied with some of the most famous educators.They were imparting (傳授) what Papa had known all along-the value of continual learning.His technique has served me well all my life.Not a single day has been wasted,though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.

25.What do we know from the first paragraph?D
A.The author's father was born in a worker's family.
B.Those born stupid could not change their life.
C.The town elders wanted to learn about the world.

26.It can be learned from the passage that the authorD.
A.enjoyed talking about news
B.knew very well about Nepal
C.felt regret about those wasted days
D.a(chǎn)ppreciated his father's educational technique

分析 本文是一篇人物故事類閱讀,文章主要講述了我的父親由于貧窮無法讀書,但是他對學(xué)習(xí)很重視.要求自己的孩子每天都要學(xué)習(xí)新知識,強(qiáng)調(diào)終身學(xué)習(xí).表達(dá)了作者對于父親的敬愛.

解答 DDAB
25.D推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一句Papa,as a son of a dirt-poor farmer,left school early and went to work in a factory,for education was for the rich then.可知父親因為窮而無法上學(xué),接受教育的富人的事情,窮人上不起學(xué).故選D.
26.D推理判斷題.根據(jù)最后一段Later during my training as a future teacher,I studied with some of the most famous educators.They were imparting (傳授) what Papa had known all along-the value of continual learning.可知我了解到一些著名的教育家的思想和父親的教育思想是一樣的,都強(qiáng)調(diào)終身學(xué)習(xí).說明作者很欣賞父親的教育思想.故選D.
27.A分析推理題.根據(jù)最后一段His technique has served me well all my life.可知他的教育方式使我受用終生.父親每天都讓孩子們討論當(dāng)天所發(fā)生的重大事情,以此來讓孩子每天都學(xué)到新的知識,這樣的討論都是在吃飯的時候進(jìn)行的.所以"dinner time"對作者來說就是繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí).故選A.
28.B推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段He was determined that none of his children would be denied ( 拒絕) an education.和第二段Thus,Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day.可知父親決定不能讓孩子不接受教育,并堅持要求每天至少了解一個新聞.說明父親是一個堅持孩子接受教育的人.故選B.

17.If you are sitting,please stand up.Move your legs.Touch your toes if you can.Do anythin g but sit.New research shows that if you cut down on the time you spend sitting,you might live longer.Sitting less than three hours a day might extend your life by two years.Cutting television time to less than two hours a day can add one point four years to life.
The human body is designed to move.The fact is just the opposite.Modern lifestyles and office jobs rarely give us the chance to move around.We sit while we're eating; we sit in the car; we sit while we are watching TV.And most of us sit for many hours at work.Sitting is something we do all the time.On average,Americans sit for four and a half to five hours a day.But that does not make sitting good for us.
Though you may exercise often,that does not mean you can sit for the rest of your waking hours.We can't throw away physical activity.It is extremely important.Even if you exercise for 30 minutes a day,what goes on in the other 23 and a half hours a day is also very important.
Changes are coming to some offices,especially in the design of desks.A"standing desk"lets people stand while they work.Another new design is called the"treadmill desk".It is an exercise machine that lets you walk slowly in one place.Even some U.S.schools begin to experiment with desks that are part bicycle to keep children moving.
Many companies may not buy a standing desk for everybody.However,they may get five standing desks or a treadmill desk for their employees and put them in a certain place where people can go for an hour a day to answer their emails or talk on the phone.Experts suggest some other activities:take a walk at lunchtime; walk to the offices and talk directly instead of emailing colleagues.All these activities may help you live longer.
28.Why should people stand up according to the new research?C
A.They should touch their toes.
B.Standing more can cure some diseases.
C.Sitting less does people good and may help people live longer.
D.They spend too much time watching TV.
29.What can we learn about sitting?B
A.Sitting is the best position for the body.
B.People usually have to sit for a long time nowadays.
C.The more people sit,the better they will be.
D.Americans sit longer every day than people in other countries.
30.What does the underlined word"It"in Paragraph 3 refer to?D
A.The walking hour            
B.Sitting         
C.Standing.
D.Exercising
31.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A
A.The new design of desks can help people sit less.
B.The"treadmill desk"is used by people to run.
C.It's better for school students to use standing desks.
D.It's necessary for companies to offer a sitting desk to every employees.
