2.Grays Peak (山顶) in Colorado rises 14,278 feet above sea level,too high for trees to grow toward the top,yet there are plenty of bushes and rocks.
It was August 2018,and Wedelstedt,56,was on her way back down the path with three friends.A storm was coming,and they were anxious to get off the mountain.When they approached a rocky drop of a couple of feet,Wedelstedt decided to jump over it.She landed on her left leg.Then she heard the snap (咔嚓声).
Every step after that was great pain.Before long,she had to stop.As one friend ran down to get help,a number of other hikers,all strangers,attempted to help Wedelstedt down the narrow path by walking on either side of her to support her weight,but that proved slow and dangerous.
Finally,one hiker,Matt,asked her, "How do you feel about a fireman's carry?" Before she knew it,he had lifted her over his shoulder. "Now,I'm not tiny," says Wedelstedt,a former college basketball star.Matt clearly couldn't carry her all the way down by himself.So six hikers and one of her friends took turns carrying her while she tried to make light of a difficult situation.Three hours and two rock-strewn (遍布) miles later,this human conveyor belt finally met the doctors,who took Wedelstedt to the hospital.
She has mostly recovered from her hike,but Wedelstedt knows she'll never shake one thing from that day:the memory of the band of strangers who came to her rescue. "I am still in awe." says Wedelstedt.

3.Boys' schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and are more likely to get involved in activities such as art,dance and music,according to research released today.
Far from the traditional image of a culture of aggressive masculinity in which students either sink or swim,the absence of girls gives boys the chance to develop without pressure to conform to a stereotype,the US study says.
Boys at single sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness,rather than feeling they had to conform to the "boy code" of hiding their emotions to be a "real man".
The findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.
Tony Little,headmaster of Eton,warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls.He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.
The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when their female peers do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.
But in single-sex schools' teachers can tailor lessons to boys' learning style,letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom,wrote the study's author,Abigail James,of the University of Virginia.
Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with specifically "boy-focused" approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them.Because boys generally have more acute vision,learn best through touch,and are physically more active,they need to be given "hands-on" lessons where they are allowed to walk around. "Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine and prefer the modern genre in which violence and war are major themes," James wrote.
Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel they had to conform to a stereotype that men should be "masterful and in charge" in relationships. "In mixed schools,boys feel compelled to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means," the study reported.
(1)It is commonly believed that in a mixed school boys
A.grow up more healthily.
B.receive a better education.
C.behave more responsibly.
D.perform relatively better.
(2)What does Tony Little say about the British education system?
A.It fails to give boys the attention they need.
B.It focuses more on mixed school education.
C.It fails more boys than girls academically.
D.It places more pressure on boys than on girls.
(3)According to Abigail James,one of the advantages of single-sex schools is
A.boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in.
B.boys can focus on their lessons without being absent-minded.
C.teaching can be designed to promote boys' team spirit.
D.teaching can be adapted to suit the characteristics of boys.组卷:3引用:1难度:0.5
