¡°Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.¡±

¡ªAlbert Einstein

If you have a kid with special needs in the school system, chances are you have come across that saying hanging on a classroom wall. My five-year-old daughter Syona has cerebral palsy (a medical condition affecting someone¡¯s control over their movement ) and it means, combined with her communication challenges and sight problems, that standard assessments (and by ¡°standard¡±, I mean the ones used to assess kids with special needs ) aren¡¯t always an accurate measure of her abilities.

By now you have probably heard about Chris Ulmer, the 26-year-old teacher in Jacksonville, Florida, who starts his special education class by calling up each student individually to give them much admiration and a high-five (a gesture of greeting or congratulation). I couldn¡¯t help but be reminded of Syona¡¯s teacher and how she supports each kid in a very similar way. Ulmer recently shared a video of his teaching experience. ¡°I have seen their confidence and self-worth increase rapidly, ¡± he said. All I could think was: How lucky these students are to have such inspirational teachers.

Syona¡¯s teacher has an attitude that can best be summarized in one word: awesome. Her teacher doesn¡¯t focus on what can¡¯t be done¡ªshe focuses on what can be done. Over the past several months, my husband Dilip and I have seen Syona¡¯s confidence increase tenfold. She uses words she wouldn¡¯t have thought of using before. She recently told me about her classmate¡¯s trip to Ecuador and was very proud when I understood her on the first try.

I actually wonder what the influence would be if we did something similar to what Ulmer does with his students in our home. We¡¯ve recently started our day by reminding each other of the good qualities we all possess. If we are reminded of our strengths on a regular basis, we will become increasingly confident about progress and success.

Ulmer¡¯s reach as a teacher goes far beyond the walls of his classroom. In fact, he teaches all of us to take a moment and truly appreciate the strengths of an important person in our lives.

1.What does the author think of Einstein¡¯s quote?

A. Funny.B. True.C. Strange.D. Confusing.

2.What can we learn about Chris Ulmer?

A. He praises his students one by one.

B. He is Syona¡¯s favorite teacher.

C. He use videos to teach his students.

D. He asks his students to help each other.

3.Syona felt very pleased because ________.

A. she has developed a cool attitude

B. her progress was appreciated by her parents

C. her mother knew what she expressed

D. she had been to Ecuador with her classmate

4.What change has taken place in the author¡¯s family£¿

A. They invite Ulmer¡¯s students to their home.

B. They visit Umer¡¯s classroom regularly.

C. They feel grateful to people in their lives

D. They give each other praise every day.

How Many Lies Do the Children Tell You?

Mothers who feel their children don't appreciate them can add another grievance to the list: half the time, their children are lying to them£®A study designed to expose the truth about lying shows that undergraduates lie to their mothers in 46% of their conversations£®Still, mums should feel better than total strangers, who are told lies an astonishing 77% of the time£®

Bella Depaulo and a team of psychologists from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, asked 77 undergraduates to keep a record of all their conversations for a week, and write down whether they lied at any time£®DePaulo named lying broadly, as "when you intentionally try to mislead someone", so she would catch the smallest of lies.

The students told an average of two lies a day£®They said they had been studying when they had been out drinking£®One told his parents that a textbook cost $50 rather than $20 so that they would send him extra money£®Female students constantly told their plain-looking roommates that they were pretty£®"They are everyday lies," says DePaulo£®

DePaulo and her colleagues conclude that people tend to tell fewer lies to those they feel closest to. College students lied to their best friends 28% of the time but lied to acquaintances 48% of the time£®In close relationships, people were more likely to tell "kind-hearted" lies, designed to protect feelings, rather than self-serving lies£®

Students lied to romantic partners about a third of the time£®DePaulo thinks that unmarried lovers can expect less honesty than best friends because of the insecurity that comes with romance£®

Mothers can take heart from one other finding£®They may have been lied to, but at least their children talked to them£®The students were recorded telling few lies to their fathers because they had little interaction with them£®

1.What is the meaning of the underlined word "grievance" in Paragraph 1?

It is necessary but difficult for English beginners to memorize new words, and long lists of words seem to make the task impossible. They are puzzled why they try to memorize words with great efforts but forget them easily. That's why there are often inquiries about how to memorize new words. 1. Here are some tips to help.

2. We too often separate the process of new words memorization from pronunciation. In fact these two can be combined and each will enhance the other. Saying the word to ourselves helps activate hearing memory, which helps the memory. 3. The more familiar we are with the word, the greater chance we will have to keep it for the rest of our life.

Never memorize single English words. 4. Relate the word to terms we already know, either as synonym£¨Í¬Òå´Ê£© or antonym£¨·´Òå´Ê£©. For example, the word "gargantuan" is similar in meaning to words "gigantic", "huge" and "large". Make a order of words: "small, medium, large, gigantic, and gargantuan".

Create a mental image of the word that involves strong emotions. Think, "The gargantuan whale is going to swallow me whole".

Learning English words requires action. Complaining how difficult it is to memorize new words will be of little help. 5. Have a try with ten words a day and you will see what a difference you will make in our English learning.

A. So take action right now.

B. Speak the word while memorizing it.

C. Memorizing new words is very important.

D. Actually, some have given up learning new words.

E. In fact, learning new words needn't be that difficult.

F. Make as many associations and connections as possible.

G. The sound of word helps us recall the spelling and familiarizes us with the word.

A new camera made by a company named Netatmo has facial recognition software(ʶ±ðϵͳ)that can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school, or that a package has been taken to their home. It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home.

Janina Mattausch is a product marketing manager for Netatmo.

¡°The common security(°²È«)cameras at present are not that smart. So, they can tell you if something is moving but they don¡¯t necessarily know if it¡¯s a human being or, ah, if it¡¯s your kids¡ªthey don¡¯t¡¯ know the difference, so they will warn you all the time.¡±

When family members enter a home, the new camera "recognizes" (ʶ±ð ) them and sends information to the owner's smartphone. The owner can choose to see the video then or later. But if an unknown person enters a home, the camera will send the owner a warning that will cause an alarm to sound on the owner's smartphone.

That is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Darrmen. He lives in Paris.

"On a Friday I was at work, attending a big monthly meeting when my phone warned. At first I told myself 'Oh, it must be a mistake, maybe I have to set the system again. ¡°But the notice on my phone was telling me that there was a movement in my flat and also a face that the software did not recognize.¡±

He watched the video and was very surprised by what he saw.

"I saw a person I did not know with his shoes on. I was watching it live on video. So I felt totally unbelievable, frozen. I asked a workmate to take me back home as fast as possible and I called the police on the way. "

With the help of the video, the police found the intruder (´³ÈëÕß) later that day.

My school stood in a big square playground in southeastern South Dakota. One teacher taught all grades, first through eighth. Most grades had only two or three students.

Our school day started with the flag pledge(ÐûÊÄ). Then the teacher called one grade at a time to the recitation bench beside her desk. She¡¯d check our work, explain the new lesson, and dismiss us to go back to our own desks and do our new work, all in less than ten minutes per grade.

At noon we ate lunches we had brought. Our lunches consisted of homemade sandwiches and if we were lucky, dessert. My favorite dessert was a fresh pear, and a piece of Mom¡¯s delicious sour cream chocolate cake.

The annual Christmas program was the most exciting part of the year. We hurried through our lessons during December to allow time to practise poems, songs, and plays.

A few days before the performance, the school board members borrowed equipment from the town and set up a stage across one side of the classroom. We hung bed sheets for curtains.

On the evening of the performance, petrol lanterns hanging along the walls cast a warm, though not very bright, light over the gathering crowd. We could hardly contain our excitement as we looked from behind the curtains to wave at our parents.

On a spring Sunday in a new term, just before the last day of the school term, everyone in the neighborhood gathered for a picnic. Our moms set fried chicken, bowls of salads, and desserts on the teacher¡¯s desk and the library table. After the dinner, we played games. One of the school board members brought big buckets of ice cream in the afternoon to top off the picnic. How we looked forward to that treat!

I was just nineteen years old when I started my first teaching position in a country school with thirteen students. I felt excited, nervous and happy as I prepared my lunch bucket the first morning of the term. I can¡¯t remember what kind of sandwiches I packed, but I do remember I put in a fresh pear and a piece of chocolate cake for dessert!
