25、w you can get free, quick literature via email. More than 100,000 people open their email each day to read a chapter of a book, through Chapter-A-Day, an online book club created two years ago. Its a free email service that provides a short daily reading for busy people, exposing them to literature

26、they may not find on their own, inspiring some to recommit to the reading habit. About 550 public library systems representing over 3,000 branch libraries already have signed up to offer Chapter-A-Day. Via email, participants get about five minutes worth of reading every day. After three chapters ar

27、e emailed, the installments stop, and those who want to keep reading can borrow the book at their public library or purchase it online. Chapter-A-Day has eight free book clubs, and sells thousands of books each month. Chapter-A-Day started in 1999 when Suzanne Beecher, a lifelong book lover, realize

28、d how many of the women who worked part-time for her software development company didnt have time in their busy lives to read. She decided to type part of a chapter of a book, and send it to her employees through email. The next day she typed a little more, and continued to send literary installment

29、s each day. She says she started getting feedback from the staff about how reading made them feel. “They were interested, and realized that, though they didnt have time in their busy lives for reading, just reading that little bit each day got them back in the habit.” Realizing that many other peopl

30、e could benefit, she decided to take the idea even further and start an email “chapter-a-day” book club to help others ease their way back into daily reading. “Reading makes changes in peoples lives,” Beecher says.

It all started in 1999, when Rouses Hannon, a math and physics tea

35、cher from Palestine(巴勒斯坦), visited Chicago. He read about the teacher shortage at Chicago Public Schools and asked the school board if theyd hire him. The board was interested and decided to create a special program for foreign-born teachers like Hannon, and he was the first teacher hired. The progr

36、am is called the Global Educator Outreach or GEO, and its a partnership between Chicago Public Schools and the U. S. Government. Because the teacher shortage in Chicago is so extreme, the Government allows the school district to temporarily hire foreign teaching candidates using HI-B visas. The Gove

37、rnment grants these visas only to skilled foreign-born citizens so they can work in highly specialized jobs that cant be filled with available U. S. workforce. Through the GEO, the school district has hired dozens of teachers from 22 different countries. Applicants must pass an English language test

38、 and specialize in math, science, world language or bilingual(双语旳) education. Hannon and the first GEO teachers started in the classroom at the beginning of the - school year. What do the GEO teachers think of the American classroom? Hannon, who was hired to teach math at Gage Park High School, says

39、 classrooms in Chicago are very different from those in Palestine. For one thing, he says, the fixed schedule that forces students to attend the same classes at the same time each day becomes too dull. In Palestine, the class schedule changes each week. He says in Palestine, the culture forces stude

40、nts to work hard because if they dont theyll be kicked out and put in vocational schools, which limits their career options. There is not nearly as much pressure for American students to do well.

44、 schedules make it easy for teachers to prepare lessonsC. vocational schools offer a good career option for American studentsD. American students do not work as hard as Palestinian studentsPassage ThreeWorkforce is defined as the total number of people who are available to work and earn incomes. The

45、 definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employers and the self-employed. Although the size of the workforce depends a great deal on the size of the total population, there are several other influences which also affect it. The age distribution of the

46、total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an evenly spread age distribution. If the population grows rapidly from natur

47、al increase, i.e., the number of births greatly exceeds the number of deaths, then as the total population increases, the proportion in the workforce declines. Sometimes a population is described as aging, which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire

48、 from the workforce, there are not enough young people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. The population is top-heavy with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate. The age distri

49、bution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reason

50、able level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes or hotels, finances must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax receipts are relatively low and either the gove

51、rnment has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily. 41. Workforce is composed of _. A. both the employed and the self-employedB. people employed to work for othersC. both employers and employeesD. people available to work and earn incomes42. The factor that

52、does not influence the size of the workforce is _. A. the size of the total populationB. the age distribution of a populationC. the national economyD. the natural population growth43. It can be concluded from Paragraph 2 that _. A. a population growth leads to a greater proportion of workforceB. a l

53、arge population does not necessarily mean a high proportion of workforceC. the size of the aged determines the proportion of workforceD. the proportion of the very young determines the size of workforce44. The size of the workforce declines when _. A. many people reach the retiring ageB. the birth r

54、ate falls rapidlyC. the number of retirees exceeds that of new workersD. the death rate increases45. The last paragraph focuses on _. A. the factors that influence the workforce structureB. the importance of workforce distribution to the economyC. the relationship between age distribution and econom

55、yD. the influence of population growth on the national economyPassage FourHonesty is the best policy, as the English saying goes. Unfortunately, honesty often deserts us when no one is watching, British psychologists reported last week. Researchers at UKs Newcastle University set up an experiment in

56、 their psychology departments coffee room. They set a kettle, with tea, coffee and milk on the counter and hung up a sign listing the prices for drinks. People helping themselves to a cup of drink were supposed to put a few cents in the box nearby. The scientists hung a poster above the money box, a

57、nd it changed each week between images of gazing eyes and pictures of flowers. The researchers found that staff paid 2.76 times more for their drinks when the image of the eyes was hung. “Frankly we were shocked by the size of the effect,” said Gilbert Roberts, one of the researchers. Eyes are known

58、 to be a powerful perceptual(感官旳) signal for humans. “Even though the eyes were not real, they still seemed to make people behave more honestly,” said Melissa Bateson, a behavioral biologist and leader of the study. Researchers believe the effect sheds light on our evolutionary past. It may arise fr

59、om behavioral features that developed when early humans formed social groups to strengthen their chances of survival. For social groups to work, individuals had to co-operate, rather than act selfishly. “Theres an argument that if nobody is watching us, it is in our interests to behave selfishly. Bu

60、t when were being watched we should behave better. So people see us as co-operative and behave the same way towards us,” Bateson said. The new finding indicates that people have a striking response to eyes. That might be because eyes and faces send a strong biological signal we have evolved to respo

61、nd to. The finding could be put to practical use, too. For example, images of eyes could increase ticket sales on public transport and improve supervision systems to prevent antisocial behavior. 46. The experiment conducted in Newcastle University shows that _. A. people enjoy free drinks more than paid onesB. most people are dishonest if nobody is watchingC. people like pictures of flowers more than pictures of eyesD. people are more honest when watched by pictures of eyes 47. Gilbert Roberts was shocked becaus
