Two teaching staff stood in court last week, in different parts of Britain, each charged with assault (人身侵犯) after attempting to remove a troublemaking student from the classroom.In both cases the men had been suspended(使暂时停职) from their schools and each had spent almost a year waiting for their cases to come to court.One man, Mark Ellwood, was cleared.The other was found guilty.Both cases show the almost impossible position teachers are now in as they try to keep order in schools.They have the responsibility for what goes on in classrooms, but it’s naughty pupils who have the power. Ellwood was the comparatively lucky one.He was brought in to work with children with behavioral difficulties.When he asked a boy to take off his jacket and put away his phone, the pupil threatened to stab(刺) him.Ellwood removed the boy from the class, and when the boy started kicking him, Ellwood swept his feet from under him and lowered him to the ground.Weeks later he was charged with assault.Social services decided that the charge made him a potential risk to any child, so he was ordered to leave his wife and teenage daughters and move out of his home.The judges told him that they hoped he would now forget his nightmare and restart his life. Sixty-two-year-old Michael Becker is the man who lost his case and will now lose his job.He taught in a special school.On the day of the incident, they were making pinhole cameras when the 15-year-old pupil arrived late.He refused to sit down, and instead walked around the classroom, telling jokes.He ignored several requests to start work and refused to leave the classroom when asked.Eventually Becker seized the boy by his belt and sweatshirt and removed him to a nearby storeroom, with the boy falling down as he struggled to break away.A teaching assistant, sent to check on him a few minutes later, found him sitting in the corridor, clearly unharmed.Becker considered the incident over, but the next day he was suspended as the subject of a police investigation. 1.Why did two British teachers stand in court? A.Because they were charged with assault on their students. B.Because they removed a troublemaking student from a classroom. C.Because they were suspended from their schools.

Astronomers (天文学家) say they are on the point of finding planets like Earth orbiting other stars, which is a key step in determining if we are alone in the universe. A top NASA official and other leading scientists say that within four or five years they should discover the first Earth-like planet where life could develop, or may have already.A planet close to the size of Earth could even be found sometime this year. At the annual American Astronomical Society conference this week, each discovery involving so-called “exoplanets” —those outside our solar system — pointed to the same conclusion:Quiet planets like Earth where life could develop probably are plentiful. NASA’s Dew Kepler telescope and a lot of new research from the suddenly hot and competitive exoplanet field caused noticeable buzz at the meeting.Scientists are talking about being at “an incredible special place in history” and closer to answering the question.“Are we alone? For the first time, there’s an optimism that sometime in our lifetimes we’re going to get to the bottom of that,” said Simon Worden,an astronomer who heads NASA’s Ames Research Center.“If I were a betting man, which I am, I would bet we’re not alone.” “These are big questions that reflect upon the meaning of the human race in the universe,” the director of the Vatican Observatory, the Rev.Jose Funes, said Wednesday in an interview at this week’s conference. Worden told The Associated Press: “I would certainly expect in the next four or five years we’d have an Earth-sized planet in the habitable (可居住的) zone.” 1.What is very important in determining if we are alone in the universe? A.Finding an Earth-like planet. B.Orbiting other stars. C.Developing new telescopes. D.Finding more exoplanets. 2.What’s an exoplanet? A.It’s a planet like Earth. B.It’s a planet outside our solar system. C.It’s a planet orbiting the sun. D.It’s a planet where life have developed. 3.The underlined phrase “get to the bottom of” probably means “__________”. A.understand fully B.make full use of C.search for D.do more research on 4.From the passage we can learn that __________. A.an Earth-like planet has been found B.it’s been proved we are not alone in the universe C.Jose Funes has found the meaning of the human race in the universe D.the discovery of an Earth-like planet could happen in the near future

Italians are considered the most handsome men in the world while men who are balding(变秃的) and aging do not necessarily lose their looks, according to an international survey. A “Male Beauty” survey of nearly 10,000 men and women in 12 countries conducted by market research firm Synovate found that good hygiene (卫生) was actually the top requirement for men to being considered handsome. The second main requirement to be considered good-looking was confidence, with nearly one fifth of all respondents saying a man must carry himself well, followed by having a “great smile”. Hair, or a lack of, seemed to have little impact with only one percent of respondents saying that a full head of hair was needed to be handsome. Older men can also take heart as 60 percent of respondents said a man’s appearance gets better with age, with Americans, Chinese, Greeks and Malaysians agreeing with that the most.“Men are seen like a fine wine – they only get better, which is good news for some of us, ” Bob Michaels, Synovate spokesman, said in a statement. But looks did also come down to geography.The survey, conducted in October in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Greece, Malaysia, Russia, South Africa, Spain, Britain and the United States, found Italian men were considered to be the most handsome – even though Italy was not in those countries surveyed.They were followed by men from the United States, Russia and Brazil. In Spain, more men than women consider having muscles and dressing well to be necessarily requirements, while the opposite was true for Greek women, who were more likely to think a macho (男子气概的) look was appealing.Far more British, French and Australian women also seemed to value “a great smile” than men do. 1.How many respondents think hair is the necessary requirement for men? A.12. B.100. C.10,000. D.60. 2.According to the survey, the underlined phrase “come down to” can be replaced by “________”. A.stand for B.equal to C.relate to D.go with 3.By saying “Men are seen like a fine wine” means “________”. A.men’s appearances get better as time goes by B.men are almost addicted to a fine wine C.drinking fine wine is often seem according to the survey D.a fine wine can make men look better 4.What can we learn from the passage? A.Synovate was one of the respondents from Italy. B.Russian men were ranking the third place. C.Having a great smile is the most important for Spanish men. D.There are 12 countries surveyed, including Italy and Canada.
