15.Summer school is something a kid will never forget.For some,it's a way to advance past their classmates.For most,summer school is a requirement in order to graduate with their classmates.I can remember being forced into taking a summer school course.It was not the school that forced me into this awkward situation,it was my mother.
I was a 16-year-old kid in a new school.My school did not offer summer courses so I had to take my course at an alternative school in the city.It was an experience I will never forget.I was not concerned with making friends.I was there to get credit for a course that I should have received for the previous semester.It was my doing that landed me in the situation and it was important that I understood this.
The fees were lowest but the experience was amazing.I enjoyed it so much that I didn't miss a day.The course was from Monday to Friday for an entire month.I passed the course with an A.I was thrown into an awkward situation and actually enjoyed it.My friends didn't even know I took the course.Most of them were still sleeping by the time my course ended each day.
Awkward situations are so important for personal growth.This situation made me feel more independent.I made friends.I finally understood what sacrifice and hard work were all about.While attending college,I remembered how much I enjoyed summer school and I chose to take summer school in my first three years of college.Some kids get pushed too much but some don't get pushed enough.I was never pushed enough.
Enable your children to struggle for success.If your child needs summer school you explain to them why it's important.Some parents are surprised by the situation and may want to be more involved in their children's education.Follow through and follow up.

A.find good jobs graduation

6.Years ago,I owned the very best dog in the world.I was a child when we got her.She grew up with me,and was always there when I needed her.She died during one of my college vacations.My heart broke then,and I knew that there would never be another dog like her.
However,I was wrong.My next dog came into my life when I was married.My husband traveled for a living,and I was often lonely.This dog taught me to be patient.He always stayed at my side until the children were born,and then he became their guardian (保护者),too.When he passed away,my heart broke.I was sure I would never love another dog as much as I loved him.
I was wrong again.We got the next one when the children were little.When he played with the children,he made them laugh.These days he spends more time with me since the children aren't around so much.He is,of course,the very best dog in the world.
I wonder if that's part of the lessen:to teach us that love has a spirit that returns again and again and never really dies.

3.A NATIONWIDE BESTSELLER
It's likely that everything you learned about America's ancient history is wrong.
The new book,1491,completely changes our understanding of the America before the arrival of Columbus in 1492.
DID YOU KNOW?
When Columbus landed there were probably more people in the Americas than there were in Europe.
The peoples of North America had such healthy life-styles that as late as the 19th century they continued to be the tallest people on earth.
Facts have shown that the Americas were populated as long as 33,000years ago.4,000years ago Mesoamerican farmers developed corn in a feat (技艺) of genetic engineering that still isn't completely understood.

5.阅读下面的短文,请根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求).
  In a study likely to make school staff amazed,U.S.researchers said that chewing gum may help academic performance in teenagers rocket to a higher level.
  Many US schools ban chewing gum because children often dispose of the sticky gum under chairs or tables.But a team found that students who chewed gum during math class had higher scores on a standardized math test after 14 weeks and better grades at the end of the term than students in the class who did not chew gum.
"For the first time we've been able to show in a real-life kind of situation that students did perform better when they were allowed to chew,"said Gil Leveille,a researcher."Wrigley has gotten feedback (反馈)from many of its gum customers who say chewing gum helps them stay focused."
   The researchers studied four math classes or 108 students aged 13 to 16 years old from a school.About half got free Wrigley's sugar-free gum to chew during class,homework and tests.They chewed at least one stick of gum 86 percent of the time they were in math class and 36 percent of the time they were doing homework.The other half went without.After 14 weeks,the gum chewers had a three percent increase in their math scores on the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills achievement test.
   Another Wrigley-funded study found that college students in a lab who were given difficult computer tasks had lower levels of the stress when they were chewing gum compared to when they were not.Leveille said he thinks chewing gum helps reduce stress so students can do their best work.While he is aware that many schools have a dim view of students'chewing gum in class,he hopes the findings may change that a bit."It's not a matter of chewing.It's a matter of gum disposal,"Leveille said,adding that that can be overcome by teaching proper disposal behaviors.
71.What does the underlined word"rocket"mean?(No more than 3 words)To achive quickly.
72.Why is chewing gum forbidden in many U.S.schools?(No more than 10 words)Because the students often throw the sticky gum under chairs or tables.
73.What feedback has Wrigley gotten about chewing gum according to the passage?(No more than 5 words)It helps stay focused.
74.What does Leveille think of the effects of gum-chewing?(No more than 15 words)Chewing gum helps reduce stress so students can do best of their work.
75.Do you agree that ban on chewing gum in class should be removed?Why or why not?(No more than 20 words)Yes,I do.because chewing gum help students focus on study and reduce stress.
No,I donot.because chewing gum may disturb the academic atmosphere of class and gum chewers may throw gum sticks here and there..
