A lecturer was giving a lecture on stress management.He raised a glass of water and asked the audience,“ 36 heavy do you think this glass of water is?” The audience’s answers 3 7 from 20g to 500g.
It does not depend on its 38 .It depends on 39 you hold it.If I hold it for a minute,It is OK, If I hold it for an hour,I will have a(n) 40 in my right arm.If I hold it fot 41, you will have to call an ambulance.It is the exact same weight, 42 the longer I hold it,the 43 it becomes.
If we carry our burdens all the time, 44 ,we will not be able to catty on,the burden becoming 45 heavier. 46 you have to do is to put the glass down,rest for a while 47 holding it up again.
We have to 48 the burden from time to time.so that we can be refreshed and are 49 to carry on.So before you return home from 50 tonight,put the burden of work down.Don’t 51 it back home.You can 52 tomorrow. 53 burdens you are having now on your 54 ,let it down for a moment if you can.
Life is short, 55 it !

Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.There is one extra heading which you do not need.

C.Safe use of fluoride | D.The expert’s background information |
E.No need to worry about fluoride poisoning | |
F.Solutions to improper use of fluoride |
I have heard that fluoride can help stop dental decay, but I recently read that it is poisonous.Which of these is true? How can children use fluoride safely?
This question is answered by Dr Marcia M.Rich who practises general dentistry in Newholt.She is also a lecturer at the University and a writer for the monthly magazine Your Dentist Cares.
My answer to the first question is to stress that fluoride works well and is safe when users follow instructions.Young children have a tendency to swallow toothpaste, which is why they should only have a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush.If this simple measure is taken, parents can be confident that children will be protected against tooth decay, and come to no harm.
Almost all medicines have an adverse effect-or even be deadly-if they are not taken as directed.So you are right-fluoride can be poisonous if it is swallowed in very large quantities.It is for the reason that fluoride supplements can only be obtained on prescription from the doctor or dentist.Please be assured that fluoride overdoses are rare-in fact, I have never heard of any fatal incidents related to fluoride poisoning.
Scientific studies have shown that fluoride can help to prevent cavities as long as it is used correctly.If fluoride is abused, there is a risk of illness or even deaths in extreme cases.If a deadly amount of fluoride is taken, immediate first-aid could save a life.A person who has swallowed a large amount of fluoride will probably start vomiting.If not, the patient should be given milk or antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.
Taking too much fluoride while teeth are growing can lead to a condition called dental fluorosis.The most likely cause is the swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young children.It can also be caused by inappropriate use of fluoride drop or other fluoride supplements, for example when fluoride is already is already present in drinking water.
In most developed countries the government provides free education for children because it realizes that educated citizens are useful to the country in their later life. Most countries also have private (私立的)education. This means that parents can pay to send their children to certain schools. People who agree with this system say that it gives parents a larger choice of schools. Other people think that private schools give the children who go to them an unfair advantage over other children.
At the age of three, many children go to nursery school. Two or three years later, they enter a primary school. At the age of 11 they go to a secondary school. Then they may have a chance .of continuing their studies at a university or college.
Universities and colleges are places where some young people go to continue their education after leaving school. Most university students study one main subject, though they may also study a number of others. Teaching is usually by lectures, or by discussions between a lecturer and students.
Most students stay at university for three or four years. At the end of that, they take an examination. If they pass, they receive their Bachelor’s degree, usually a BA, which is short for Bachelor of Arts, or a BS for Bachelor of Science. Some students study for several more years in order to get higher degree, such as a MA or a PhD
Most university courses don’t train students to do a certain job. Colleges, on the other hand, usually teach skills which enable students to follow a career(职业), such as clothing design, or business studies.
【小题1】The passage mainly tells us_______.
A Something about the private schools in developed countries
B. How developed countries pay attention to education
C. Some general information about education in developed countries
Why education is important
【小题2】 Why do most developed countries provide free education to children?
A.Because the children don’t have money to go to school. |
B.Because the government want their citizens to be useful to the country. |
C.Because education doesn’t cost the country too much money. |
D.Because there are not enough private schools. |
A.the cities | B.members of a country |
C.the children | D.people who lives in cities |
All the university students study one subject.
After studying at the university for three or four years, all the students can get a Bachelor’s degree.
C. Students usually receive a master’s degree before receiving a Bachelor’s degree.
D. Unlike university, colleges usually teach students some useful skills for a career
Basic Math introduces students to the basic things of mathematics, as well as some easy methods of learning it. These 30 fantastic courses are designed to provide students with understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra (代数) and beyond.
The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic field of arithmetic. They also look into exponents (指数), the order of operations, and square roots. In addition to that, students also discover how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches , and how they can be used practically.
Basic Math starts from easier concepts and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones. The lectures offer students the chance to understand of mathematical knowledge that may have seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathematics and develop confidence in this amazing field of study.
With the help of these lectures, they will be able to clear away the mystery (神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confidence than they ever imagined. Besides, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.
Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as "the best math teacher in America, " is a devoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical concepts in clear and interesting ways. From the basic ideas to the more difficult problems, he is a master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less frightening
With a PhD in Mathematics Education form Georgia State University, Dr. Siegel now teaches mathematics at Central Arizona College.
If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.
