In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded （要求）the most discipline （纪律）from their students.I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very vividly （清晰地）a sign over her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Laboratory—in this room the first five letters of the word was emphasized （强调）, not the last seven.” In other words, I guess, labor（劳动）for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and demanded us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least.

They based their findings on more than four thousand adolescents who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and one-half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio, etc. But the study did find that every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developingsigns of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount of media use.The study didn’t explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active to read, to attend religious services and to vote.61. The best title for this passage should be .A.

Fog can be waiting to meet you over the top of a hill. Ice might be hiding under the melting (融化) snow, waiting ahead to send you off theroad. The car coming to you may suddenly slip（滑）across the road.Rule No.1 for driving on icy roads is to drive smoothly (平稳地). Sudden movements can make a car very difficult to control. So every time you either start or stop your car, increase or reduce your speed, you must be as gentle and slow aspossible. Suppose you are driving with a full cup of hot coffee on the seat next to you. Drive so that you wouldn’t spill (溅) it.Rule No.2 is to pay attention to what might happen. The more ice there is, the further down the road you have to look. Test how long it takes to gently stop your car. Remember that you may be driving more quickly than you think. Generally, allow twice of your usual stopping distance when the road is wet, three times this distance on snow than usual, and even more on ice. Try to stay in control of your car at all time and you will not get into trouble.1、According to the passage the writer is trying to _____A．show his dislikes for the bad weather in winterB. give information about the weather in winterC. ask people not to drive in winterD. advice people about safe driving in winter2.
