This note helped us in preparing for their arrival. As they would be here for a number of days, his daughter wanted to make

11、his trip to Ireland as smooth as possible.Upon seeing this note and knowing I would be the one to check them in, I decided to learn some very basic sign language. I greeted the guest in my usual fashion, asking for the surname on the booking. Once I heard the name，I immediately realized who was stan

12、ding in front of me.I had been learning for two weeks how to say: “Welcome to Ireland. My sign language is terrible, but please, if you need anything during your stay, just let me know and we will help you.”I smiled at the father and daughter in front of me. Turning to the father, I greeted him in A

13、SL (American Sign Language) and began the bit I had learned for him. His daughter broke down crying and told me I was sweet. But the father just smiled and was so happy. Honestly, seeing his reaction was enough for me. It was absolutely worth the last few weeks of learning basic ASL.Sadly, I wasnt w

14、orking the day they checked out, but they left a gift for me, a small box with some chocolates and a book on ASL. Inside was a note saying: “Thank you very much for what you did. My father has been in amazing spirits from the time you checked us in and insisted we get you a gift before we left. You

15、have no idea how much this meant to my father and me, and we cant thank you enough. Youve made his trip very special with one simple gesture.”I cried for a solid five minutes when I came into work the next day and found this gift in my locker.21.

18、ontroversial voice fragment, “Math class is hard.” While the toys release met with strong public reaction, this underlying assumption persists, spreading the myth that women do not thrive in science, technology, engineering and mathematic (STEM) fields due to biological inadequacies in math aptitude

19、. However, in 2019 Jessica Cantlon at Carnegie Mellon University led a research team that comprehensively examined the brain development of young boys and girls and found no gender difference in brain function or math ability.Cantlon and her team conducted the first neuroimaging study to evaluate bi

20、ological gender differences in math aptitude of young children. Her team used functional MRI（核磁共振）to measure the brain activity in 104 young children (3-to-10-year-old; 55 girls) while watching an educational video covering early math topics, like counting and addition. The researchers compared scan

21、s from the boys and girls to evaluate brain similarity. In addition, the team examined brain maturity by comparing the childrens scans to those taken from a group of adults (63 adults; 25 women) who watched the same math videos.After numerous statistical comparisons, Cantlon and her team found no di

22、fference in the brain development of girls and boys. In addition, the researchers found no difference in how boys and girls processed math skills and were equally engaged while watching the educational videos. Finally, boys and girls brain maturity were statistically equivalent when compared to eith

23、er men or women in the adult group.Cantlon said she thinks society and culture are likely steering girls and young women away from math and STEM fields, as previous studies show that families spend more time with young boys in play that involves spatial cognition（空間認(rèn)知）. “Typical socialization can ma

24、ke worse small differences between boys and girls that can snowball into how we treat them in science and math,” Cantlon said. “We need to be aware of these origins to ensure we arent the ones causing the gender inequities.”However, this project is focused on early childhood development using a limi

25、ted set of math tasks. Cantlon wants to continue this work using a broader scope of math skills, such as spatial processing and memory, and follow the children over many years.24. What can we infer about the toys release?A. It has raised a storm of applause.B. Girls perform no worse than boys in mat

26、h.C. Math is a subject difficult to every one of us.D. Women are born with insufficient math abilities.25. What will Cantlon most likely agree with?A. Parents should lengthen the time spent with girls.B. Society is causing a greater gender difference in math abilities.C. Culture plays a leading role

27、 in childrens brain development.D. We should cultivate boys and girls math abilities equally.26. How will Cantlon further her research?A. By using a wider range of math skills.B. By involving a broader scope of subjects.C. By increasing the complexity of math tasks.D. By following the children until

28、 their adulthood.CSome of the most powerful companies in the world have co-founders. For example, Google(Sergey Brin and Larry Page),Apple(Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs),and Microsoft(Bill Gates and Paul Allen)and so on. Having partners can help to deal with the pressure and the failures that come wi

29、th running a business. No matter how down on your luck you feel they may provide emotional support. They may have extra skills, and be on hand to help out with the day-to-day problems. And an alternate point of view may help to broaden your mind and aid the risk of mistakes being overlooked.Everybod

30、y knows Samsungs Galaxy Note 7.When the phone was launched in 2016,customers praised it for its storage, design and usability, and it may well have been a hit if it werent for the fact that it occasionally caught fire and exploded.

31、ce but to recall the entire model. The shortcoming reportedly cost the company $1 billion, and a further $17 billion in lost sales. But remember, based on the lesson, the Galaxy Note 8 and the Galaxy Note 9 are well received in the world! Now we know that failing is part of business success.One thin

32、g that all great companies have in common is that they have failed many timesand luckily, they bounced back. Take Sarah Blakely, founder of shapewear brand Spanx for example.

33、 “People would tear up my business card in my face. But my friends and I knew I could sell and I knew I wanted to sell something I had created.

It is usually used to describe a peaceful period just before a very stressful situation or a tense argument. 31. They noted that before certain storms the seas would seem to become calm and the winds would drop.But why is i

38、t often so calm before a storm? 32. According to US website HowStuffWorks, a calm period occurs because many storms, tornadoes and hurricanes draw in all the warm and damp air from the surrounding area. As this air rises into the storm clouds, it cools and acts as “ fuel for the storm ,like petrol i

39、n a car. “Once the storm has taken all the energy it can from the air, it is pushed out from the top of the storm clouds and falls back down to ground level. 33. So once it covers an area, it causes a calm period before the storm.34. First count how many seconds there are between a flash of lightnin

40、g and a clap of thunder, roughly three seconds equal one kilometer. A good judgement is that if your count is below 30 seconds, you should seek shelter straight away.However, due to the complexity of storm system ,calm doesnt always go first.

Weather reports sometimes cannot be trusted.D. British sailors coined the phrase in the late l600s.E. As the air declines, it becomes warm and
