A friend of mine named Paul received(收到) an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin(顽童) was walking around the shining car. ―Is this your car, Paul? he asked. Paul answered. Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas. The boy was surprised(惊奇). ―You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you anything? Boy, I wish…He hesitated(犹豫).

Of course, Paul knew what he was going to wish for(希望). He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly. "I wish, the boy went on, ― that I could be a brother like that. Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, "Would you like to take a ride in my car? "Oh yes, I’d love that.

After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, ― Paul, would you mind (介意)driving in front of my house? Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. ― Will you stop where those two steps are? the boy asked.

He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(残疾的) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.

"There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent(美分). And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.

Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable(难忘的)holiday ride.

Sure,it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.

And yes,it's good to get along with your teacher because,in general,it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.

"But really,there's one super﹣important reason why you should get along with your teacher.When you do,learning bursts right open,"says Evelyn Vko,a longtime teacher who writes an education column called"Teacher Says"for the Washington Post newspaper.

In fact,kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more,but they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help.This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests.When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher,he or she can be someone to turn to with problems,such as problems with learning or school life,such as bullying.

As a kid in a primary or middle school,you're at a wonderful stage in your life.You're like a sponge (海绵),able to absorb lots of new and exciting information.On top of that,you're able to think about all this information in new ways.Your teacher knows that,in most cases,is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it.Remember,teachers are people,too,and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you.That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place﹣to teach!

Some kids may be able to learn in any situation,whether they like the teacher or not.But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher,and if things aren't going well,they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.

1.In the passage,the author mainly talks about

A. how to get along well with others

B. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachers

C. the importance of a good relation with teachers

D. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant

2."Learning bursts right open"in the third paragraph really means

A. there will be more problems with learning

B. you find an opening to learning

C. learning becomes easier for you at once

D. there will be no problems at all with learning

3.Which of the comments is FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?

A. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.

B. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn't like to accept their teaching.

C. Though few,there are still some students who can learn even if they don't like the teacher.

D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.

A new rubbish sorting system(垃圾分类系统) has been put into use in Fangchengyuan Community in Beijing.Local people not only sort their rubbish,but also put QR codes(二维码) on it.

“When the rubbish is collected and the codes are seen,I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money,” one of the local people told reporters.“It's really creative and encouraging.”

This smart system has been carried out in 350 communities in Beijing.The capital of China has joined a list of cities in the country that take action to support rubbish sorting.China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year.Much of the rubbish is buried(填埋) in soil or burned without being sorted.Landfills(填埋场) take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby.And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases.Through rubbish sorting,we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.

What's more,rubbish sorting saves resources,which could bring economic benefits(经济利益).For example,a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850 kg of paper,saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water.Because of their benefits,some countries have developed successful sorting systems.

Japan has a strict and detailed system.When people throw away a water bottle,the cap,the wrapper(包装纸) and the bottle itself have to go into three different bins.Every year,families receive special rubbish sorting timetables and directions from their local governments.
