Teachers from Matthew Jago elementary school in Sewaren,New Jersey,took a group of students in the school's (自閉癥) classes to Jose Tejas Restaurant on May 6 ,in honor of Teacher Appreciation Day.
The 21 teachers and 26 children enjoyed a good meal. When it came time to pay the bill,the manager told them it had already been paid for by another diner. “We couldn’t believe it. We were all speechless the moment we heard the news,” said Jeannette Gruskowski,one of the teachers.
The meal was supposed to be paid for by the teachers and the children's parents,and the group was impressed by the kindness of the complete stranger. The manager told US that she’s a grandparent of a child with special needs,” Gruskowski explained. And she was so touched by US being there with the kids on Teacher Appreciation Day.”
The woman chose to remain anonymous. The teachers were told that the woman frequently visited the restaurant,so the group put together a heartfelt thank-you card in the hope that it would reach her.
“we don’t know who you are. There are no words to express how grateful we are to you,” read the card. “Your act of generosity will forever remain in our hearts."
Greg,manager at Jose Tejas., confirmed that the card was given to the anonymous woman. He said that she was very appreciative,but still insisted on anonymity.

Looking for a simple way to bum more calories while walking? Researchers found that walking at varying speeds can bum up to 20 percent more calories. It is one of the first to measure the calories burned at various walking speeds. “Most of the existing literature has been on constant-speed walking. This study is a bi^ missing piece,” said Manoj Srinivasan,co-author of the study. “Measuring the calories burned while changing speeds is very important — people don’t live their lives on (跑步機(jī)) and do not walk at constant speeds."
The researchers found that up to thirty percent of the energy we use during normal daily walking could be due to the energy needed to start and stop walking. Walking at any speed costs some energy,bilt when you* re changing the speed, ?ou will get the biggest effect. Changing the kinetic (運(yùn)動的) energy of a person requires more work from the legs and that process certainly bums more energy.
The study also confirmed the researchers’ prediction that people walk slower when covering shorter distances and increase their paces as distance increases. This finding could have some effects in the field of health,where the speed measured within a certain distance is used as a sign of a patient's progress. “What we’ve shown is that the distance over which you make them walk matters,” said Srinivasan. You’11 get different walking speeds for different distances.”
For more tips on how to bum more calories when walking,Srinivasan offers some simple advice: walk in a way that feels unnatural. “How do you walk in a manner that bums more energy? Just do weird things. Walk with a backpack,walk with weights on your legs or walk in a curve as opposed to a straight line,” he said.
9. Why does research on walking and changing speeds matter?
A. It can save lots of energy.
B. It's good for the environment.
C. It can help build up our bodies.
D. It's close to the way people walk in everyday life.
10. The second paragraph serves as .
A. an explanation for the study
B. the background of the study
C. an example of the study
D. an introduction to the study
11. When patients change the speed of walking,.
A. they are in poor health
B. they are likely to recover
C. they have weight problems
D.they may need more walking practice
12. What does the underlined word “weird” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Boring. B. Strange,
C. Great. D. Right.

Last summer I was fortunate enough to be able to spend a month in France. It was the most exciting time of my life. I stayed with a family in Montpellier. It was very different from my life in the United States. Every morning we bought fresh bread from the bakery (面包店) and had coffee in a bowl instead of a cup. The milk came in bottles fresh from the dairy (牛奶場) .These differences were skin-deep,however,I soon discovered other more important ones.
Back home in Winnetka,Illinois,I wouldn’t think anything of taking a ten-minute shower every day,or even twice a day in summer. In my French host family,we showered only once every two days and used far less water. First you turn the water on to get wet,then turn it off and soap yourself up,then you turn it on again to rinse the soap off,so the water is only on for about maybe two minutes. Although it was pretty hot there in summer,I’d never taken showers in cold water!I couldn’t imagine what it was like in winter.
I also noticed that although the'family had a car,they hardly ever used it. The father took the bus to work in the morning and the mother rode her bicycle when going on short trips. The family was well-off rather than poor,but they tried to drive less. As Americans,however,we are quite used to taking long showers and driving everywhere,using much more energy than French people.
Living in Montpellier and seeing people’s frugal life there,I get angry thinking of the resources wasted in the United States. When I came home,I was much more energy-conscious. I didn't drink coffee out of a bowl anymore,but I started riding my bike to school and turning the thermostat down at night.
1. According to Paragraph 1 ,Americans and the French are different in
A. their eating habits
B. their morning exercises
C. the way of cooking
D. their attitude to breakfast
2. What can we learn about taking showers in Montpellier?
A. People take showers every day.
B. People use a small amount of water.
C. People usually spend ten minutes showering.
D. People are used to taking cold showers.
3. We know from Paragraph 3 that the French family
A. lived a poor life
B. made full Use of their car
C. enjoyed taking short trips
D. had environmental awareness
4. The underlined word “frugal” in the last paragraph probably means .
A. quiet
B. simple
C. busy
D. private

John Sand was one of the most influential teachers I have ever met. During high school,he taught me more than any other teacher had been able to.
He developed unusual methods of teaching. He did not give US homework on the first day and have it due the next; instead,he gave US a homework schedule for the term and left it up to US to remember to do it. By doing so,he prepared US for life after high school,where it would be up to US to make our own work schedules.
Mr. Sand was a family man. He made use of whatever time we had left in class to show US his latest vacation videos or his children's sports videos. It was nice to see,in a world where a broken home is the average home,a man who balanced his family and his career so nicely.
Mr. Sand always encouraged US to get out of our little close-minded society of Wethersfield and explore the cultures of the world. He would tell US stories of his travels across Europe and his adventures around the US. Many teachers just forced the idea of college and ignored our heed to reach outside of what we know.
Many people may not ever have a teacher like Mr. Sand. I feel sorry for them. Mr. Sand taught me things that went beyond the curriculum (課程) and let me know how powerful a teachers influence could be.
1. How did Mr. Sand deal with students,homework?
A. .He always avoided giving it.
B. He punished those failing to finish it.
C. He wanted students to be responsible for it.
D. He spent enough time every day checking it.
2. What do we know about Mr. Sand from Paragraph 3 ?
A. He only had one child.
B. He had a great love for life.
C. He liked doing sports after work.
D. He valued his job more than his family.
3. Mr. Sand shared his tours around Europe with his students to .
A. lead them to know more
B. encourage them to become brave
C. inspire them to care for others
D. show them how to spend their free time
4. What would be the best title for the text?.

In my life,I have had a number of good teachers ,many common ones and a few who were truly exceptional. Many years before,I was a rule-obeying kid and lived a very peaceful life. I liked school but felt bored.
And then I entered fourth grade. My teacher,;
Mrs. Gerlip,was a young woman who combined art,music,theatre and other forms of creative expression into a lively class. I blossomed. I formed a “Fun Club” with other girls in my class which was all about having fun. I wrote a book called Through the Forest about the adventures of Polly and Jack who disobeyed their parents. Much of the joy and self-confidence I experienced that year was owed to the great teacher whom I never forgot.
So you can imagine my surprise when fifty years later I received a letter in the mail. A few days later ,reunion was planned at Mrs. Gerlip's home. Reconnecting with Mrs. Gerlip was a journey back in time. Five decades had passed,but my teacher still remembered eveiy student. She hadn' t forgotten the class (恃強(qiáng)欺弱者) who used to hit me on my way to school. In a time when bullying was considered nothing serious,Mrs. Gerlip put a stop to it.
Now,in my mid-fifties,I appreciate even more the gifts I was given in fourth grade. I am deeply grateful. It' s never too late to reach out and express thanks to that extraordinary teacher in your life.
