Frederick M.Hess is the director of education policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, which is a nonprofit organization that conducts research on many public issues.He says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world.

Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of kids spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the mall.They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.

Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn’t need an education to get a good job.But now things have changed.For today’s students, academic skills are important to students’ future success, but such skills are affected in the summertime.Many nations don’t give kids an American-style summer vacation.They offer no more than seven consecutive(连续的) weeks of vacation.Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks.To compete in the global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.

Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families.In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay-at-home Mom.Now two-thirds of American children live in households where every adult works.For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break.Someone must watch the kids.

But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement.Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose significant ground in the summertime.

A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work.Rather, it should allow time-pressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons.Schools would have more time to devote to athletics, languages, music and the arts.Summer vacation can be a grand thing.But in the 21st century, it may also be outdated.

Title: Summer Vacation

Children have their own rules in playing games.They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely take trouble to keep scores.They don’t care much about who wins or loses,and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished.Yet,they like games that depend a lot on luck,so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared.They also enjoy games that move in stages,in which each stage,the choosing of leaders,the picking-up of sides,or the determining of which side shall start,is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children’s game exciting,and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple game again and again.However,it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person,and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinary afraid.He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.He can be confident,too,in particular games,that it is his place to give orders,to pretend to be dead,to throw a ball actually at someone,or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control.Everyone knows the rules,and more importantly,everyone plays according to the rules.Those rules may be childish,but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

The way we cook is important. In many countries, the two sources of heat used for cooking are natural gas or electric stoves. The World Health Organization(WHO) warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year.

Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook stoves in the home. WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass(生物燃料)and coal stoves.

These findings show that the home use of poisonous fuels is to blame for many of these deaths. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste and so on. Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO’ s Department of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health. He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene(煤油)fuel indoors. He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation. It will only pollute the outdoors. “New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this problem.”

The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatemala and Peru, are also at risk.

Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.“There are already many technologies for clean fuels available now. An effective and reasonably low-cost ethanol(酒精)stove that is made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company)is now being tested out. Another interesting development is electric induction stoves.” In India, you can buy an induction stove for about $8. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.

1.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?

A. By making classifications. B. By listing numbers.

C. By following time order. D. By describing a process.

2.According to Carlos Dora, what is the best solution to indoor air pollution?

A. People should use an effective air cleaner.

B. People should use new technologies and clean fuels.

C. People should open a window or door to let out the harmful air.

D. People should prevent themselves from being exposed to harmful air..

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Most of the deaths from indoor pollution are in developing countries.

B. Burning solid fuels can help limit indoor air pollution .

C. People can buy ethanol stoves made by Dometic in India.

D. There are already two technologies for clean fuels available for use.

4.Which would be the best title for the passage?

A. The way we cook is changing.

B. Cause of indoor air pollution.

C. The development of electric stoves.

D. Indoor air pollution kills millions each year.
