27、I ALMOST failed out of college and it nearly broke my self-confidence. I had been at the top of my high school class, the total golden child. So when I decided that I wanted to attend Columbia University for graduate school, I was sure it would be close to impossible.
My goals were to prove to myself that my years of academic success in secondary school had not happened by chance and prepare for a career in children’s media. But first I had to get in.
So I enrolled (报名) in a GRE test prep course and threw myself into the class. The first part was pretty scary and by the third, I knew it wasn’t going to get any easier. I reconsidered my plan to take the GRE.
For the first time in my life, I considered how I should go about getting into graduate school. What were my special skills? Would any of them get me into graduate school?
I got a job working on a project sponsored by the dean’s (系主任的) office on campus and enrolled in a class. I had a new plan: Be a top student in the class while working on campus, get letters of recommendation from my boss and my professor, then hope that playing to my strengths like writing interesting papers would be enough for my application.
I worked my butt off (很努力工作) that semester. With finals approaching, I felt confident I would get an “A” in the course, so it was time for step two. I asked my boss to write a letter of recommendation. She immediately agreed. But my professor said no. She did not know me well enough and the semester was not completed. However, I decided I just would not take no for an answer. I asked if she would least write a short note unofficially supporting my application. After some uncomfortable conversations, she finally agreed. In the end, I got in!
I revisit that moment of persistence (执着) again and again. I have leapt into many other opportunities since then. Now I am starting a company born out of my graduate school research in children’s media. Our first product is a mobile game for teen girls that breaks down major life milestones (里程碑) into missions (任务). On its surface, the product helps girls connect with each other. But it also helps them develop the tools to live life without limits.
【1】The writer stopped taking the GRE prep course because ______.
A. the beginning of the GRE course was really frightening
B. she realized by the third part of her GRE class that her plan wouldn’t work
C. Columbia University would not accept the GRE test
D. she didn’t put all her efforts into the GRE course at first
【2】 The underlined words “playing to my strengths” in Paragraph 5 probably mean “ ______”.
A. developing my physical power
B. making use of what I am good at
C. doing something to the best of my ability
D. doing something with all the strength I have
【3】One of the reasons why the professor refused to write a letter of recommendation was that ______.
A. the author had almost failed out of college
B. the author was not a top student in high school
C. the author was not her favorite student in the class
D. the professor did not know enough about the author
【4】 The writer succeeded in getting into the graduate school because of ______.
A. her “A” grade
B. her strong letters of recommendation
C. her strong determination and her good plan to make herself stand out
D. her interest in children’s media and outstanding skills in writing interesting papers
28、HOW WIND FORMS
You'll need:
·Two empty glasses or plastic bottles of the same size
·Hot and cold water
·Red and blue food coloring
·One playing card
·Towels(毛巾），in case of spills
What to do:
Fill one bottle with hot water and the other with very cold water. Be sure each one is filled to the brim. Add several drops of red food coloring to the hot water, and several drops of blue food coloring to the cold water.
Press the playing card against the mouth of the hot-water bottle. Turn the bottle upside down so it's mouth-to-mouth with the cold-water bottle, then carefully slide out the playing card.The hot red water will not mix with the cold blue water.
Keeping the bottles attached at the mouth, carefully turn them over so the blue bottle is on top.The hot red water will rise as the cold blue water sinks, creating purple water.
Cool science:
This experiment uses water to show how wind currents move.“Wind forms because of uneven(不均衡）heating (in the air),”Donaher says.“Uneven heating creates pressure differences, and that will set the air in motion.”Hotter, less dense air rises (just like the hot red water) while colder,more dense air sinks (like the cold blue water). The warmer air is less dense, Donaher explains, because its molecules are moving faster and they're farther apart.As lower-pressure, hotter air moves up, cooler air whooshes in to take its place. We feel that as wind.
【1】What material does the science experiment need?
A．Cloth to keep warm.
B．Two playing cards.
C．Different food coloring.
D．Some colored water.
【2】Where is the playing card placed during the experiment?
A．Around the two bottles.
B．Between mouths of two bottles.
C．In the bottle with warm water.
D．Below the bottom of one bottle.
【3】What sets air to move to form wind?
A．Water pressure.
B．Warmer air.
C．Colder air.
D．Air heating.
29、How to make friends at a new school
Starting with a new school can be difficult. Everything seems to be different, and you don’t even know where to go for your own classes. 【1】However, if you use these skills, you can quickly turn some of those strangers into friends.
Be yourself.
【2】If some people don’t accept you, they’re not the kind of friends you need. People often stay together because they have similar interests. For example, someone who does a lot of sport may make friends with those who also run or swim a lot.
【3】
Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school. If you think that you will say something that may make them feel sad, do not say anything and just nod your head if they talk to you. Also, remember to be as helpful as possible!
Believe in yourself.
A smile goes a long way. When you walk in the halls, don’t keep your eyes on the floor. Raise your head and make eye contact(目光接触) with other people. 【4】Then introduce yourself. Tell them your name and where you’re from.
Remember people’s names.
You like it when people use your name, and so do other people. Tell them what your name is and what you nickname(昵称) is, if you have one. 【5】People may become angry if you just begin by saying “Hey” each time.
A．After that, ask them in a kind way if they have a nickname just like you.
B．Be friendly to others.
C．Join in afterschool activities you like.
D．Making new friends can be hard, too.
E．Don’t sit at the back of the classroom where other people don’t notice you!
