| We thought we had it all-a beautiful house, three healthy children and one more on the way, two cars, a couple of four-wheelers for entertainment-and we loved it. Then, the market turned and my husband's job at a construction company was gone. The company was closing down for good. We both started looking for jobs right away, but there weren't any to be found. With each passing day we were getting increasingly worried and we continued to work together in order to pull our family through. The more we pulled together, the closer we got. I felt feelings of admiration for my husband that I hadn't felt in years. That's why it was so hard for me to watch him blame himself for our present situation. I continually asked him to stop, but he seemed to want to punish himself for not having a job. Finally, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said,"We have four healthy children and each other. That's what's important. That makes you a rich man." "But what if we lose the house? They'll hate me-you'll hate me," he replied. I smiled at him and put my hands on both sides of his face to make him look me in the eye. "No matter where we live I will be happy -as long as I have you." I smiled again. In all the struggling together I had found that deep love for him that I had on the day we said"I do". I could see his shoulders and neck relaxed. He held me close and we were able to talk and plan and dream together in a way that we hadn't for quite some time. It was a turning point for us as a couple and a family. We are still struggling for our better life, but I consider us well-off because we have something that money can't buy and no one can take away from us. |

| One Sunday morning in June 1959 my mother walked into my room. "Surprise!" she said, proudly holding up a yellow dress ."I made it just for you. What do you think?" I bit my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the ugliest dress I had ever seen? "It's perfect for church," my mother continued delightedly. "I wish someone had made a dress like this for me." Too bad you can't wear it, I thought. But I knew Mom had spent a lot of time on the dress. No one should refuse. Unwillingly I put it on. All through church I prayed (祈祷), Lord, let me get out of here without anyone seeing me. Especially Dennis Pearce, the boy I had a crush on, one of the coolest boys at Neptune High School. Although we were in some of the same classes, Dennis had never taken any notice of me. Every time I got near him, I became tongue-tied. | At the end of the service I rushed for the door. But I had to wait on the steps while my parents chatted with their friends. Just a little while longer…Then out of the corner of my eye I saw the Pearces coming near. Before I could escape, Dennis was right beside me. I started talking, hoping if I kept it up he wouldn't notice my ugly dress."I'm going to college in September," I said. "That's great," Dennis replied "I got accepted to police academy (学院)." "Wow!" I said. Somehow I kept the conversation going. The next thing I knew Dennis had asked me out on a date! We courted (恋爱) through college, and eventually got married. Months after our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day he had first asked me out. "Certainly I do," he said."You were always quiet in school. I didn't think you'd be much fun. But you were so lovely when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better." Maybe that yellow dress wasn't what I would have chosen, but that day it was the perfect dress for me. |

| Providing small classes for at least several grades starting in early primary school gives students the best chance to succeed in late grades, according to groundbreaking new research from a Michigan State University scholar. The research by Spyros Konstantopoulos, a professor of education, is the first to examine the effects of class size over a period and for all levels of students. The study appears in the American Journal of Education. He is also a member of a group for the Department of Education's Institute of Education Sciences that will give official advice on class size to the states. He said the advice will mirror his research: the best plan is to provide continuous small classes(13 to 17 students) for at least several years starting in kindergarten or first grade. "For a long time states thought they could just do it in kindergarten or first grade for one year and get the benefits," He said."I don't believe that. I think you need at least a few years in a row where all students, and especially low-achievers, receive the treatment, and then you see the benefits later." His research used data (数据)from the Project Star study in Tennessee that analyzed the effects of class size on more than 11,000 students in primary and middle school. He found that students who had been in small classes from kindergarten through third grade had actually higher test scores in grades four through eight than students who been in larger classes early on. Students from all achievement levels benefited from small classes, the research found."But low-achievers benefited the most, which narrowed the achievement gap (差距) with high -achievers in science, reading and math," he said. Although the study didn't consider classroom practices, he said the reason for the narrowing gap is likely due to low-achieving students receiving more attention from teachers. "This is especially important in poorer schools because teacher effectiveness matters more in schools with more disadvantaged and low-performing students," he said. |
| 1. The professor argues about _____. |
| A. the size of the class B. the period of the class C. the attention from teachers D. the achievements of students |
| 2. The result of the research shows that _____. |
| A. small classes for one year in early grade are enough B. continuous small classes help students achieve more C. it's best to attend small classes in kindergarten D. small classes do equal good to students of all levels |
| 3. What can we infer from the passage? |
| A. High achievers will not benefit from small classes. B. Continuous small classes have not been widely accepted. C. Low-achievers should be separated from high-achievers. D. Teachers' attention matters less than classroom practices. |
| 4. The underlined word "This" in the last paragraph refers to _____. |
| A. the gap between low and high achievers B. continuous small classes C. classroom practices in later grades D. the Project Star Sturdy |

| Is it time to kick Russia out of the BRICs (金砖四国)? If so, it may end up sounding like a famous ball-point pen maker-BIC. An argument is being made that Goldman Sach's famous marketing device (策略), the BRICs, should really be the BICs. "Is Russia really worth the name BRICs?" asks Anders Aslund, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, in an article for Foreign Policy. Aslund, who is also co-author with Andrew Kuchins of "The Russian Balance Sheet", thinks the Russia of Putin and Medvedev is just not worthy of inclusion alongside Brazil, India and China in the list of future economic powerhouses. He writes: "The country's economic performance has fallen to such a weak level that one must ask whether it has any say at all on the global economy, compared with the other members of its group. I have just returned from Moscow, which is always dull around this season. For the last seven years, Russia has taken very few measures to improve its economy. Instead, the state has been living on oil and gas." Economically, Aslund has the numbers on his side. The International Monetary Fund figures that the Russian economy will fall by 6.7 percent in 2009, while China will grow 8.5 percent and India 5.4 percent. There is less of a case for Brazil, with a fall of 0.7 percent, but it is still doing far better than Russia. But the BRICs are not just about economy. As is mentioned above, it is a marketing device to encourage investors (投资者)to focus on the big promising players. From an investment standpoint, it could be argued that Russia is leading the BRICs. Its stock (股票) market is up 128 percent this year while around 80 percent is for the other three. At very least, however, Russia's economic underperformance and stock market outperformance does suggest it is indeed one of the group. |
| 1. According to the passage, which country will enjoy the biggest increase in 2009? |
| A. China. B. Russia. C. Brazil. D. India. |
| 2. According to Aslund, Russia shouldn't be a BRIC partly because _____. |
| A. Russia's economic performance is far worse than the other three B. Russia's leaders are not good at managing economy C. Russia has taken effective measures to improve its economy D. Russia will no longer attract investors from other countries |
| 3. From the passage we know that _____. |
| A. Anders Aslund is working for the Russian government B. Russia outperformed the other three countries in stock market C. most people disagree Russia is included in BRICs D. the BRICs would end up being the BICs sooner or later |
| 4. The author seems to _____. |
| A. suggest it's time to kick Russia out of the BRICs? B. feel worried about the economy of the BRICs C. think Russia is worth being one of the group D. show disappointment to Russia's economy |
