C The alarm sounds. Students swing their backpack over their shoulders, board the school bus, make their way to their homeroom and the bell rings—school is back. But for more homes in America, school looks more like students waking up, making their way to the dining room or home office, setting up laptops and learning in the comfort of home.
Virtual schooling, defined as “a public school that offers only instruction in which students and teachers are separated by time and/or the location, and communication occurs through computers and/or telecommunications technology”, has increased over the past decade. According to the National Education Policy Center, enrollments (注册) in virtual schools increased by 17,000 students between the 2015—2016 school year and the 2016—2017 school year to 295,518 students.
For Arizona Virtual Academy, an online public school, they use the curriculum of K12 Inc. K12 serves students in all 50 states and more than 100 countries with digital learning platforms and technology, providing online education. “We are always improving our platforms and the technology that we use to make sure that we’re keeping up with the changing trends (趋势), not only with education but also with technology,” Dr. Kelly Van Sande said. Another piece of new technology they’ve rolled out is a new app where parents can find virtual schools available in their area.
Carrie Faulkner chose to enroll two of her children in Arizona Virtual Academy. She says they’ve done schooling online in Chicago, in California, at restaurants and on her cousin’s floor in Kansas. “It doesn’t matter whether her son is on the couch, in his bed or at the kitchen table—he can do schooling wherever he wants to,” Faulkner said. “I wish they had it for me back when I was in school.

There is an old saying in Chinese: “To do a good job, one must first sharpen one’s tools.” When it comes to photography, however, it’s not exactly the case. In this year’s National Geographic Travel Photo Contest, Greenlandic Winter, a picture by Chinese photographer Chu Weimin, took first place in the cities category and won the overall grand prize as well.
When asked why he chose Upernavik, a small fishing village in Greenland, to take his pictures, Chu described the first time he spotted the village from an airplane. “Through my entire flight, I could only see the land, covered by pure white ice and snow. But I suddenly saw a big, warm dot in the far distance —Upernavik,” he told National Geographic. “The beauty of this tranquil (宁静的) village was beyond my imagination. It was a ‘wow’ moment for me.” This ability to identify a “wow moment” is what makes a good travel photographer.
According to Chu, he was moved by Upernavik’s blue tint at dusk, the warm yellow light from the windows, and the family of three walking along the snowy street. Although he is a professional photographer, many of Chu’s Greenland pictures were shot with his phone.
This attitude echoes（产生回响）that of Austrian-American photographer Ernest Haas (1921-1986). Haas told his students that they were too obsessed（使痴迷）with cameras to understand the essence（本质）of photography. “The camera doesn’t make a bit of difference,” Haas said. “All of them can record what you are seeing. But you have to SEE.”
Perhaps it’s not just in photography that we’ve put too much emphasi s on the role of tools. How many of you are reluctant to start a new sport or learn new software simply because you don’t yet have the “right” outfit (装备) or computer?
It’s true that “sharpened” tools make the work easier, hut as reporter Abhilash Pavuluri wrote on Firstpost: “In the end, it’s really the artist that makes a good painting, not the paintbrush.”
32．What do we know about Chu Weimin?
A．He is better at photographing people than scenery.
B．His award-winning picture is set in a peaceful village.
C．His shooting style stands out from other photographers.
D．He is the first Chinese person to win the National Geographic Photo Contest.
33．What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 3?
A．To explain why Chu’s picture stands out.
B．To introduce Chu’s love for Upe rnavik.
C．To recommend a good place for taking photos.
D．To describe Chu’s inspiration for the winning picture.
34．What makes a good photographer, according to Haas?
A．The ability to find beauty.
B．Enthusiasm for photography.
C．Having rich parents.
D．Owning the best camera equipment.
35．The underlined word “reluctant” in paragraph 5 has the closest meaning to ________. A．glad B．unwilling C．confident D．supposed

Tips for Preparing to Drive in Britain
When you’re planning on travelling a large distance in a short amount of time, the best way to transport yourself is by car. 36 In order to legally drive in the UK, you must adequately prepare yourself before attempting to get a UK driver’s license.

Some may wonder why the British driving requirements are much stricter than America’s. This answer all comes down to the history of how this country was set up. Hundreds of years ago, there weren’t motor vehicles. The windy and narrow roads were created mainly for carriages.

While preparing for the UK driver’s testing, one of the most important aspects to focus on is learning what certain words, phrases, and signs mean while on the road. Many times, there will merely be a sign without words that you will have to obey. 39

The first test is the theory test. Within two years of passing this test, you will need to take the practical test. 40 You should feel confident to pass each test and be comfortable driving on
dangerous streets of the UK.
A. Remembering the History.
B. Learning Road Conditions.
C. As a result, cars in the UK are smaller.
D. For this reason, safety on the road is vital.
E. However, this may be easier said than done.

I think that teenage years should be the best in everyone life because you have few problems than adults. Most teenagers have a lot of friends with whom they can discuss things they are interesting in. Teenagers have a preference to up－to－date clothes and modern music. They also like do sports and compete. Their parents are such curious about their life that they’ll sometimes enter their rooms without a permission.
