  “Should there be separate classes for boys and girls?It might be a wise idea, because it is difficult to satisfy all tastes,”researchers at Leeds University in the UK last week said.

  According to their report, in Britain, boys want science lessons to be about weapons of mass destruction and the effects of chemical weapons, while girls prefer to learn how to keep fit or the meanings of their dreams.

  The study among 15-year-olds aimed to discover how science might be made more popular.The researchers, who contracted 1,200 English students, say“most did not like science as much as other subjects.”

  The difference in results has curriculum(课程)planners considering separate classes for each sex.“The responses show a strong interest among boys in destructive technologies,”say the researchers.“while girls, by contrast, ________ their own bodies.They want to know how to deal with eating disorders, and they are interested in how to beat cancer and how to keep fit.”The differences make teaching a mixed-gender class a very difficult job.

  There was, though, agreement on what boys and girl least want to learn.Both sexes were bored by the thought of studying the benefits and possible dangers of modern farming methods.Neither did they want to study“famous scientists and their lives”.

  Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it.But a new survey in America finds almost as many also fear the online world-especially social networking sites such as My Space-and worry their kids will get in trouble with people they meet.

  “The parents see the web's amazing potential, and they know their kids have to be there,”says James Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, which gives out results from a survey that looked into parents'attitudes toward the Internet.

  The study was conducted online May 5-10 by Insight Research Group.It says 80% of parents are concerned about kids meeting bad people online.

  That's because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a social outlet, say the researchers.To young people, the benefits of giving out some personal information to reach out to friends outweigh the risks.And, the study shows they are so comfortable with the medium that 78% have a personal website or blog.

  Parents also recognize the importance of the Internet.The survey shows 90% think the Net helps their children explore their passions, and 77% think the Internet is one of the most valuable education tools teens have.But 88% think it's important to know what ________.Findings suggest both parents and teens need more education about using online media, Steyer says.

  Internet safety has become an increasing concern for parents in America.Organizations like the non-profit Common Sense have been trying to reach and help parents pay attention to the problem.

  Nowadays, everyone tends to use EZ link card for transportation.

  Normally, when you get on board the bus, you flash your EZ link card and move in and when you get down the bus, you flash your card again at the exit door(located at the middle of the bus).We all know that if we forget to flash the card, full fare will be deducted(扣除)from the card.

  Below is something not known to public:

  If you get off from the entrance door and you flash your card, the card will capture another entrance fare instead of exit fare, thus meaning that two full fares will be deducted from the card as no exit was being captured for the two entrances.For example, you board a crowded bus at Pasir Ris(where it stops at Jurong East)and decided to get down ten stops later from the door you had entered.If you flash your card at the entrance door without informing the bus driver, a second entrance fare will be captured instead of exit fare thus you are paying two full fares(2×$1.90=$3.80)instead of one fare.This is useful information.

  Here’s the solution:

  Go to the “big” machine(i.e.machine for you to top up the card)located at the MRT stations.

  1)Insert your EZ link card

  2)Press the function key “Check card”

  3)Press “more”

  The above function will show you Information of the last 20 transactions(交易)on the screen.Please pass this e-mail to people you know so that they will not pay extra charges for nothing and burn a big hole in their pockets

  Last but not least, call the hotline:1800 767 4333 when the incorrect fares are deducted.

1.If a passenger had flashed his EZ card twice in one bus ride and it later showed that he had paid twice as much as he actually should, it suggested that _________.

(Please answer within 10 words.)

  Open Your Eyes And Let's See Who You Are

  Inventors have developed a new way to identify people, using a machine that scans their eyeballs.Developed by eyes scan, this new technology takes advantage of the fact that the iris(虹膜)of each person's eye is unique, and remains unchanged throughout a lifetime.

  The process will replace ________called retina(视网膜)identification, which compared the pattern of veins(静脉)in the back of the eye.Used to control access to nuclear weapons, retina identification has never caught on with the public because it requires the user to put their eyeball right up against a lens.Iris scanning, on the other hand, works from a distance.

  The iris of the eye is photographed from up to one meter away.The patterns of the iris are translated into digital code, and stored in a PC database, along with personal information.Glasses and contact lenses do not interfere with the scanning process, and it takes only a brief moment.

  The new technology will be useful for banking and police work, as well as for the Internet economy.Before long, your computer monitor may be equipped with an iris scanner that can identify you when you shop online, thus preventing fraud.

  There will be no ID cards to carry in your pocket, and no long numbers to memorize.And eyes will be very difficult to counterfeit.

  Did you lose your ID card?No, you didn't.It's still right up there beside your nose.

阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到题后相应的位置上(请注意问题后的字数要求)。

  [1] High school is thought by many to be an exciting time when you make lasting friendships and look forward to college life.However, as all young people know, high school is full of pressures.

  [2] Fitting in is not only a major part of middle school and high school, but it is also crucial throughout life.The dream of being one of the “in-crowd” isn’t a desire you can simply tell yourself not to have; it’s something you should try to avoid.

  [3] Teachers and parents constantly tell us to be ourselves, but many of us have no idea who we really are.Those around us will always influence the choices and decisions we make.So how do you break the pattern? How can you pull away from the trends of today and make something that’s truly your own?

  [4] First, you need to gather up some courage, because being different from everyone else can be a little nerve-racking(令人紧张的).

  [5] Secondly, if you want to get anywhere, you must stop comparing yourself to others.Set aside any insecurity, because when it all comes down to it, you are who you are, and that’s all you will ever be.

  [6] Others will always influence you, and that’s OK; it’s human nature.But don’t become a clone just so you can get to the top of the social pyramid.

  [7] It will be tough at first, but if you show others that you are confident in yourself, I can tell you firsthand that they will become more accepting of the way you are.

  [1]Peer tutoring(同伴指导)benefits many students in several ways.Peer tutors can help themselves in understanding materials.They have to master the material themselves and come to a deeper understanding to teach others rather than getting taught by a teacher.

  [2]Peer tutors get communication and social skills by tutoring.In order to communicate the meaning of material clearly and make it understood, they must practice the necessary skills to communicate with other people.These skills also carry over socially as it's much easier, especially for shy children to communicate with someone than to communicate with a large group as in a classroom.It's common for the tutor and his student to become friends.Developing leadership skills, confidence and a sense of responsibility is easy for a tutor.The tutor becomes a better student, gains more confidence and understands the teacher's role better.

  [3]Those ________ can also benefit greatly from peer tutoring.Since the tutors are of the same age as the students, it's more comfortable for the children who have trouble with the material and in need of help to get taught by the same age tutors.This will allow them to ask more questions without fear and to come to a better understanding of the material.The tutor may be able to pass on little tips and tricks that helped him understand the material better.

  [4]The process of peer tutoring works for all the related people.It's easy to relate to someone of the same age.The tutor learns to improve skills useful later in life.The teacher has more time to concentrate on students.It's a winning situation for everyone.
