Sugar Hill Children?s Museum

Sugar Hill Children?s Museum of Art & Storytelling is open to the public on Saturday, October 3 with a FREE kickoff party that includes music, face painting and of course stories and art-making. The museum is designed to serve the youngest New Yorkers with a target audience of 3 to 8 years old.

The 17,000-square-foot Sugar Hill Children?s Museum of Art & Storytelling is housed in the recently completed affordable and eye-catching housing complex (住房综合区) at die crossing of 155th Street and St. Nicholas Avenues. Designed by famous architect David Adjaye, the inside space provides a bright, airy feeling contrast to the building?s strange outside.

You won?t find ball holes or water tables at this friendly museum, but plenty of fascinating art decorates the walls. And the art studio spaces and a storytelling lineup which has not yet been released will likely draw crowds. Small touches like hanging art low enough to attract a toddler, as well as its free admission for those 8 and under go a long way in achieving the museum^ goal of making art more accessible to preschool and early-elementary aged kids.

Where: The Sugar Hill Children^ Museum of Art & Storytelling is located at 898 St. Nicholas Avenue, directly above the 155th Street C-train subway stop. Cars are not the best choice regarding to the heavy traffic here. (Strollers (婴孩车)are allowed in the galleries or can be checked with coats upon arrival.)

Hours: The museum will be open on Saturdays and Sundays from noon to 5 pm during October. Public hours will be added on Thursdays and Fridays from 10 am to 5 pm in November. It is reserved for school visits from Monday to Wednesday.

Cost: While Saturday?s event is FREE, regular admission prices will be $7 for adults and $4 for children aged 9-17; those aged 8 and younger are always FREE. 1. What?s the purpose of building the museum? A. To serve a certain group of little kids. B. To satisfy the requirement of the local.

C. To offer the young New Yorkers a free place to hold parties. D. To help the public learn about the development of ancient art.

2. From the third paragraph, we can learn that the museum __________. A. will quickly cover a large area of housing

B. may increasingly attract people to gather together

C. may eventually provide more employment opportunities D. will gradually bring economic benefits to the local people 3. When can preschool children visit the museum? A. On Thursdays and Fridays in October. B. On Saturdays and Sundays in October.

Not all awards are as noble as the Nobel Prize, which is world-famous for giving prizes to people who made progress in literature, science, economics and — perhaps most importantly — peace. Even though most countries have a system for recognizing, honoring and rewarding people who have done something good in their countries, there are now hundreds of awards and awards ceremonies for all kinds of things.

The Oscars are probably the most famous, a time for the film industry to tell itself how good it is. The awards are not only for films — Now there are also Grammies, Brits, the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards for music. In Britain, a writer who wins the Booker prize can expect to see their difficult, literary novel hit the bestseller lists and compete with The Da Vinci Code for popularity. The Turner Prize is an award for a British contemporary artist — each year it causes controversy by apparently giving lots of money to artists who do things like displaying their beds, putting animals in glass cases or —this year — building a garden shed.

Awards don?t only exist for the arts. There are now awards for Sports Personality of the Year, for European Footballer of the Year and World Footballer of the Year. This seems very strange — sometimes awards can be good to give recognition to people who deserve it, or to help people who are on tight budget carry on their work without worrying about finances, but professional soccer players these days are not shy of fund! Why have all these awards and ceremonies appeared recently? Shakespeare never won a prize, nor did Leonardo Da Vinci.

Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big organizations or companies. This means that not only the person who wins the award benefits from it — but also the sponsors. The MTV awards, for example, are great for publicizing not only music, but also MTV itself!

On the surface, it seems to be a “win-win” situation, with everyone being happy, but let me ask you a question — how far do you think that publicity and marketing are winning here, and how much genuine recognition of achievement is taking place? 5. What?s the writer?s attitude towards the Nobel Prize? A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Hopeful. 6. Why does the writer write Paragraphs 2 and 3?

A. To show the importance of giving awards to people. B. To show there are various awards. C. To tell us why so many awards appear. D. To tell us how people win awards.

7. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Don?t need to carry on their work. B. Aren?t as famous as other people. C. Aren?t as important as other people. D. Don?t lack money.

8. Which of the following statements may the writer agree with? A. The win-win situation satisfies all people involved.

B. Most awards today go to people who don?t really need them.

C. Awards should be given to people with financial problems.

D. Organizations that give awards take advantage of awards ceremonies. C

Like the rest of their species, the Southern Hemisphere humpback whales typically prefer to remain single or gather in small groups that disperse (散开) quickly. However, since 2011, researchers from Cape Peninsula University of Technology in Cape Town have been observing a new phenomenon off the coast of South Africa. Professor Ken Findlay and his team reported seeing 22 cases of large groups of humpback whales on three different occasions in 2011,2014, and 2015.

The researchers are puzzled not just by the unusual social behavior, but also by the fact that the “super-groups” were seen in April and May. That?s because the mammals typically spend these late summer months (in the Southern Hemisphere) feeding in the Antarctic waters before heading back to the warmer subtropical South African waters during winter, to breed and give birth. In a study published in the journal PLOS ONE on May 1, Findlay and his team outlined some of the possible reasons behind the big change in the mammals? behavior.

The researchers say that the cause of the recent sightings could be the abundant food available in the Benguela upwelling system. Located near the southwestern tip of South Africa between St. Helena Bay and Cape Point, the system of cold, nutrient-rich ocean currents is rich in phytoplanktons and species of small fish that the humpback whales feed on, such as the mantis shrimp.

Another probable reason is the sudden increase in humpback whales? population. According to a recent scientific report, the mammals，population, off the coast of Australia, has reached nearly 90 percent of pre-whaling numbers, while on the US East Coast, the number of whales is up 60 percent from its lows. All in all, experts estimate there are currently 150,000 humpback whales swimming in our oceans. They all need to feed.

However, while the theories may explain the decision to skip migrating (迁徙) to Antarctic waters, the reason for the social super-groups remains a mystery. According to Findley, “It?s possible that the behavior was occurring, but just not where it was visible (看得见的). Because there were so few of them, we may not have seen it.”

9. What is implied about the humpback whales in Paragraph 2? A. They no longer hunt for food in the Antarctic waters.

B. They usually spend the whole winter in the Antarctic waters.

C. They are rarely seen in South African waters during April and May. D. They?ve changed their social behavior to adjust to the warmer waters.

10. According to Findley, why are the humpback whales seen in large groups now? A. Because they swim in populated areas now. B. Because their number has increased greatly.

C. Because they need to work together to hunt for food. D. Because researchers pay closer attention to them now. 11. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Reasons for the number of humpback whales increasing so greatly. B. How humpback whales adapt themselves to the changing environment. C. Why humpback whales appear off the coast of South Africa in large groups. D. Researchers? findings about a new whale species near the coast of South Africa.

Last Tuesday morning I stared across the table at a woman with severe scars lining her face. Her angry husband carved those scars when she told him she wanted a divorce.

I?m a member of the Rhode Island Parole Board. Month after month — for 13 years — I?ve met with criminals and victims. Immediately before my colleagues and I conduct hearings for the criminals, we meet with their victims if they wish to tell us their stories.

Every time I walk into those hearing rooms I retest my belief in justice. I do my best to balance my concern for public safety and my faith that some criminals truly have regretted their deeds. On hearing days, nearly always, the victims beg us to keep the prisoners behind bars. All morning long I hear their sufferings: murder, armed robbery, and domestic violence.

The victims return to their lives and hours later I find myself face to face with the criminals. I settle in to hear what the prisoners have to say. Often their stories are filled with regret, hope and lots of promises.

These face-to-face meetings force me to deal with what I really believe about people?s fundamental rights. I?m proud to be part of a system like ours — as imperfect as it is. The system does most of its work in the open and takes seriously the rights of both victims and the accused But I struggle to balance these colliding rights. Only an hour after meeting with the woman with scars on her face, I met with her husband, Andrew. He explained with sorrow and regret how he had mishandled his failing marriage. He showed me, with heartfelt words, the fruits of his hard emotional labor while in prison — from his learning in treatment programs and from his own soul-searching. All of a sudden, he didn?t seem evil.

So, how do I administer justice (执行审判)？I believe that justice can?t be shaped by, simplistic formulas (公式). Rather, justice happens when real human beings sort through a jumble of laws, rules, conflicting stories, and plain old instinct (本能，直觉) 12. When staying in the hearing room, the author __________. A. is full of contradictory feelings B. feels pitiful for the criminals C. feels suspicious about the justice D. is angry at the victims? sufferings

13. What?s most probably the author?s job?

A. To decide whether to put the criminals into prison.

B. To decide whether to let the criminals come out of prison. C. To give justice to the victims and punishment to the criminals.

D. To give justice to the victims and lessen punishment to the criminals. 14. What can we know about Andrew?

A. He accepted physical labor and treatment programs in the prison. B. He was less evil than he used to be after years of soul-searching. C. He was very mad with his wife about ending marriage with him. D. He was sentenced to 13 years in prison for his violence to his wife. 15. What?s the author?s attitude to the criminals? A. They are able to reform themselves in prison.

B. Their rights and freedom also need to be defended. C. The victims should forgive the regretful criminals. D. They should be given punishment and also justice.

At Lowe?s Home Improvement in Staten Island, New York, last summer, Michael Sulsona, 63, and his wife, Frieda, 60, were searching for a garbage can. Frieda was 21 Michael down the passage in an old wheelchair. Michael, a veteran (老兵) who?d lost both 22 in the war, was still waiting for a 23 wheelchair from the Veterans Affairs (VA) two years after 24 it. In the lawn-supplies aisle, Michael?s wheelchair was suddenly 25. Sal, a store employee, saw the event and called over his 26 David, Marcus, and Souleymane to help. (Lowe?s Home Improvement refused to reveal the last names of the men or make them 27 for interviews.) “Sal told me, ?You?re not leaving 28 it?s like new,?” says Michael.

The men went to 29 the wheelchair. It took them a long time to take apart, fix up and 30 the wheelchair. When it didn?t seem firm enough, they adjusted it 31. “You guys are incredible,” Michael told them when it was done.

“It was our 32 they replied. Two days after Michael posted his 33 on a website dedicated to Staten Island news, the VA called to tell him that a new wheelchair was 34. Hundreds of strangers had already 35 to buy Michael a new wheelchair, but he 36. Instead, he asked them to contribute to a nonprofit foundation that helps 37 veterans like him. “The men felt like they were just doing a small thing,” says Steve Salazar, a Lowe?s spokesman. “But, in fact, what the Lowe?s employees did was far beyond their 38.
