The headmaster of a middle school in southern England, David Hayes, has suspended（停课） students at his schoo1 478 times over the past year --one in twenty of all the student suspensions in England.
Although some people believe that his actions go too far, he seems to be getting results. The number of students receiving ‘‘A’’ grades in the nationa1 senior schoo1 exam has increased from 48% in 2004 to 74% this year.
Mr. Hayes says that many schools could achieve similar improvements if they improve their school students’ behavior. He also says the British government is wrong for pressuring schools not to suspend troublesome students and points out the harmful effects such students have on the quality of teaching and student learning. Suspensions often get many naughty students to improve their behavior, he says.
The school was below average in 2003. Mr. Hayes joined the following year and now suspends two of the school’s 1880 students on average each school day. The total of 478 suspensions over the year means that almost one in four students have been punished this way. This year the school’s academic performance was judged as excellent.

Should Schools Suspend Troublesome Students？
I recently read a news story about a school in
I believe the headmaster is correct to take this action. If a few students are always behaving poorly in class then it will negatively affect other students’ learning. As a result, many innocent students will suffer and they will fail to achieve their full potential. If the naughty students are removed from the class then the others can learn in peace. Hopefully the misbehaving students will learn their lessons and when they return their behavior will be better.
If I was in charge of a school I would also be very strict with students who don’t behave well. I would first warn and then suspend students who interrupt the learning of others or disrespect their teachers. But I would also visit the poor student’s home and discuss the problem with his parents so we could find a solution.

Should Schools Suspend Troublesome Students？
I recently read a news story about a school in English whose headmaster often suspends misbehaving students. The headmaster believes that strong discipline improves both students’ behavior and academic performance. His school’s exam results have greatly improved during his time in charge.
While I congratulate the headmaster on his success I do not agree with the methods he used to achieve it. Suspending students should be the final type of punishment used for misbehaving students, not the first. Quickly removing such students from the school may be of some benefit to the remaining students but it doesn’t solve the problem of poor behavior. It only shifts the problem from the school to the community. If these naughty students are not in school then they will only be making trouble out of school. Moreover, as the parents of many of these students are working, the students are unsupervised and thus are in danger of falling in with local criminals who will only encourage such bad behavior and even teach them worse things.
If I was in charge of his school I would place the naughty students in a class of their own. This way the other students could study in peace but the naughty students could remain under the supervision of the school and its teachers. The teachers in the naughty class would also have more time to focus on correcting the actions of these misbehaving students.
阅读快车系列答案Grasslands need time to recover when cattle and other animals feed on them. Moving animals from one field to another can provide the 21 needed for new growth. This is called rotational grazing(轮流放牧), and here’s more about how it 22 .
Rotational grazing is good for the land and the animals, and it can save money. This farm of grazing can decrease the need for pesticides(杀虫剂) by reducing the 23 of weeds. And it can 24 the need for chemical fertilizers by letting animal waste do the job of natural fertilizer. Rotational grazing can even help prevent wildfires by keeping 25 in good condition.
Letting animals feed constantly in the same grazing areas can require 26 planting. Animals eat the most 27 growth first. When that keeps happening, the roots do not have enough time to recover. 28 , less wanted plants may replace them. Heavily used grassland are also harmed as the soil is 29 pressed down under the weight of heavy animals.
While rotational grazing can save money over time, it also requires 30 . And that starts with a good map to mark fences, water supplies and grazing areas.

以下是某个英语杂志有关专家对一些读者反映问题的建议：
A. Feel Grateful!
You say you’re thankful, but then dismiss your mom’s investment as an “obligation”. By today’s economic standards, what she did is virtually miraculous. Tell your mom plainly, over and over again, how grateful you are. I’m sure the complaining will begin to fade. |
B. Tame the beast!
When one boy discovers his inner caveman, he likes to initiate others into the tribe. Don’t over-worry. Boys will be boys. You and your husband should meet the boy’s parents down the street, suggesting a plan to either tame the wild beasts or limit their time together. |
C. Good effort and goodwill makes it!
Maybe there was a reason why your buddy was out of work. He’s taking advantage of you and your employer. Remind him how to act on the job. He owes good effort and goodwill if he accepts the pay. Tell him to be quiet or get away. |
D. Calm down!
Fast vehicles and wild people---sounds like adolescent dreams to me. As some men age, they compensate with bigger, faster toys. But he’s putting you at risk and breaking the law. In a calm moment outside the car, tell him that he is scaring you. Suggest he join a car club, one that promotes safe driving. |
E. Move your line away!
You say you’re “in the middle”, but I’d say you’re dangerously close to slipping off the edge. There are lots of fish in the sea; why drop your line in waters your friend is still fishing? |
F. Speak out and breathe easily together!
You are rebuilding a relationship with new trust and affection. If there’s a bad odor left from the old day, you need to clear the air. Mention the problem, and say, “I’m sorry for my part in that argument.” I’ll bet she’ll say the same. |
