    With schools close in the UK during the COVID-19 outbreak, most children must now be homeschooled. Parents have found themselves not only having to balance work and having the children at home but also having to try and teach them. How can you keep your children focused while learning?

Nicola Anderson--Head of Customer Support at the UK’s leading online tutoring service MyTutor, provides new, up-to-date tips to hearten parents at this difficult time and advises how they can structure their children’s days.

One is to keep to a regular timetable so it still feels like your child is taking part in the school day. Ms Anderson said: “Children of all ages do well on routine and boundaries; schools provide this in abundance and it will most children feel secure and happy if they can follow a similar timetable for their homeschooling.”

Another tip is to create an environment which is favorable to learning. She said:” The environment should be free from distractions and ideally near to an open window, to provide them with appropriate levels of fresh air and natural light. Some children find it comfortable and helpful to have quiet, instrumental music playing in the background to help them to focus, but this isn’t for everyone.”

Using technology to help with your child’s learning is also advised. Many schools are offering online classes and resources to help and companies are reducing or even not charging their fees during this time.

It is also important to keep physical exercise as a part of your routine. Joe Wicks, otherwise known as The Body Coach, has been keeping kids healthy with daily 10 minute workouts for children on his Youtube channel. Ms Anderson said:” It can be anything from running around the garden, walking the dog, a game of football or dancing around your living room!”

1.Who is the text intended for?

A.Student. B.Teachers.

C.Coaches. D.Parents.

2.What does the underlined word“this" in paragraph 3 refer to?

1.D 2.C 3.B 4.A 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文,向家长们介绍了在疫情期间如何让孩子在家学习时集中精力的几个方法。 1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Parents have found themselves not only having to balance work and having the children at home but also having to try and teach them. How can you keep your children focused while learning?”可知,家长们发现他们不仅要平衡工作与和孩子一起在家的关系,还要努力教他们学习,你怎么能让你的孩子在学习时集中精力呢?由此可知,本文是写给家长的,故D项正确。 2.词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“One is to keep to a regular timetable so it still feels like your child is taking part in the school day.”可知,其中一个方法是保持一个固定的时间表,这样你的孩子仍然感觉像是在学校上学,此处承接上文,说的是学校制定了很多固定的时间表(课时安排),如果孩子们在家能遵循类似的时间表,他们会有序、快乐地学习,由此可知画线词指代的就是前面提到的“固定的时间表”,故C项正确。 3.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Another tip is to create an environment which is favorable to learning. She said:” The environment should be free from distractions and ideally near to an open window, to provide them with appropriate levels of fresh air and natural light.”可知,另一个方法是营造一个有利于学习的环境,她(尼古拉·安德森)说:“这应该是一种没有外界干扰的环境,最好靠近一扇打开的窗户,这样可以为他们提供新鲜的空气和自然的光线,由此可知,尼古拉·安德森会同意为孩子营造一个安静的学习环境,故B项正确。 4.主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是根据第一段中的“How can you keep your children focused while learning?”可知,本文主要向家长们介绍了在疫情期间如何让孩子在家学习时集中精力(提高在家学习的效率)的几个方法,故A项正确。

    Autumn Peltier is a youth environmentalist who has inspired thousands of students to walk out of class and demand action on climate change.

When Autumn Peltier was just 8 years old, she attended a ceremony at a reservation where she saw a sign warning that the water was poisonous. Growing up on a freshwater island in Wiikwemkoong Unceded Territory in Canada, Peltier says she had never experienced poisonous water. The memory of that sign stayed with her.

Two years later, at the age of 10, Peltier is fighting for water conservation and water rights for everybody. She says she was inspired by her great aunt, Josephine Mandamin, a well-known activist who walked the shores of all five Great Lakes to raise awareness for water conservation.

When she was 12 in 2015, Peltier met Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, telling him she was unhappy with his policies on debating pipeline projects. Trudeau promised her he would preserve the water. Since 2015, 87 long-term water advisories in Canada have been lifted; 56 water advisories remain.

At middle school, Peltier joined an environmental group at her school and later co-founded the Canadian Youth Water Strike-a Canadian branch of the international movement to conserve water.

Last year, Peltier spoke at the UN about the importance of water conservation and water access, explaining the fundamental role water plays in her culture.

“Many people don’t think water is alive or has a spirit. My people believe this to be true. . . . We believe our water is precious because we are born of water.”

After the speech at the UN, Peltier is joined by a group of teenagers who share similar thoughts. Her friends include Greta Thunberg, a Swedish girl who drew the world attention through the talk at World Economic Forum at Davos, Bruno Rodriguez, an Argentinian boy who joined in the UN Climate Summit, and Mari Copeny, an American girl who is dedicated to the cause of saving water. Peltier and her friends believe that together they can make a big difference.

Undoubtedly, Peltier’s many years of hard work has paid off. She has greatly raised people’s awareness of water conservation and taught people to take specific actions to conserve water.

That’s an impressive list of accomplishments for anyone, let alone a middle schooler.

1.How did Peltier feel about the poisonous water when she was 8?

A.Shocked. B.Interested. C.Excited. D.Bored.

2.Who influenced Peltier to start water conservation?

A.UN officials. B.Trudeau. C.Mandamin. D.Thunberg.

3.What does Peltier expect to do in the future?

A.To make more friends. B.To protect more water.

C.To attend more summits. D.To organize more strikes.

4.What can we learn from Autumn Peltier’s story?

A.World leaders can contribute to success.

B.Environment is Canadians’major concern.

C.Fame comes from attending great summits.

D.Achievements result from continuous effort.

    One major reason Americans don’t get enough exercise is that they feel they don’t have enough time. It can be difficult to squeeze in the 75 minutes of aerobic (有氧的) exercise per week that federal guidelines recommend.1..

In a new analysis of 14 studies, researchers tracked deaths among more than 232,000 people from the U.S., Denmark, the U.K. and China over at least five years, and compared the findings with people’s self-reports about how much they ran. People who said they ran any amount were less likely to die than those who didn’t run at all.2. This was true even for those who didn’t log a great deal of time. The analysis divided people into groups, with 50 minutes or less per week representing the group that ran the least―but still ran. ‘‘Regardless of how much you run, you can expect such benefits,” says Zeljko Pedisic, one of the authors of the new analysis published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.

The analysis is the latest to illustrate the benefits of running on the human body. It’s what we evolved (进化) to do. 3. But as leisure-time exercise, running keeps us healthy. “One of the best ways to avoid having to see a doctor,” Zeljko says, “is to stay physically active.”

4. Running is good at guarding against cancer partly because it uses up blood sugar, starving the cancer cells that rely on it for fuel. And it protects you in other ways not necessarily measured in the latest research: by decreasing inflammation (炎症), for example, which is at the root of many diseases, and stimulating the production of a protein that improves brain health.

5. Neither were how often people ran and the pace they kept. As long as you’re running, more isn’t always better, especially given that the risk of injury increases with repetition.

A.People may no longer hunt wild animals for their next meal.

B.The physical demands of running affect our body in a beneficial way.

C.Some people run to prevent disease, and others run because it makes them feel better.

D.Runners were 27% less likely to die for any reason, compared with nonrunners.

E.But researchers point out, to infer something like that, they need the whole population measured.

F.But new research suggests people may be able to get life-lengthening benefits by running for far less time.

G.The good news is that running more than 50 minutes per week wasn’t linked to additional protections against dying.
