I first came across the concept of pay-what-you-can cafes last summer in Boone,N. C. , where I ate at F. A. R.M. (Feed All Regardless of Means) Cafe. You can volunteer to earn your meal,pay the suggested price ($10) or less,or you can overpay — paying it forward for a future customer's meal. My only regret after eating there was not having a chance to give my time. So as soon as Healthy World Cafe opened in York in April,I signed up for a volunteer shift（轮班）.
F. A. R.M. and Healthy World are part of a growing trend of community cafes. In 2003,Denise Cerreta opened the first in Salt Lake City. Cerreta now runs the One World Everybody Eats Foundation,helping others copy her pay-what-you-can model.
“I think the community cafe is truly a hand up,not a handout,^ Cerreta said. She acknowledged that soup kitchens(施粥所) have a place in society,but people typically dori 51 feel good about going there.
“One of the values of the community cafe is that we have another approach,” she said. “Everyone eats here,no one needs to know whether you volunteered,underpaid or overpaid."
The successful cafes not only address hunger and food insecurity but also become necessary parts of their neighborhoods — whether it's a place to learn skills or hear live music. Some teach cooking to seniors; some- offer free used books. Eating or working there is a reminder that we’ re all in this world together. '
My 10 am-1 pm shift at Healthy World Cafe began with the cafe manager — one of two paid staff members. Our volunteer crew wasn’t the most orderly,but we managed to prepare and serve meals with a lot of laughs in between. At the end of my shift,I ordered my earned meal at the counter,together with other volunteers. After lunch,I walked out the door,with a handful of new friends,music in my head and a satisfied belly and heart.
28. What did the author do at F. A. R.M. Cafe last summer?
A. She worked as a volunteer.
B. She overpaid for her food.
C. She ate free of charge.
D. She enjoyed a meal.
29. What is the advantage of community cafes compared with soup kitchens?
A. People can have free food.
B. People can maintain their dignity.
C. People can stay as long as they like.
D. People can find their places in society.
30. Why are community cafes becoming popular in the neighborhoods?
A. They bring people true friendships.
B. They help to bring people together.
C. Theycreatealotofjobopportunities.
D. They support local economic development.
31. How did the author feel about working at Healthy World Cafe?
A. It paid well. B. It changed her.
C. It was beneficial. D. It was easy for her.

Oh,you’ve been there: Your parents are insisting you come home by 10 ,when everyone else can stay out until midnight. Your soccer coach keeps benching you. 36 We all have days when we think we might explode.
That's because anger is 101 percent normal — in fact,it ,s rooted in the most primitive of survival mechanisms(机制) . 37 But humans,highly evolved (进化的) brains attach similar meaning to things that aren't life-threatening but produce an equally intense response.
Of course,no one ever got into trouble for having angry thoughts. 38 Think about it: Scream at your parents? Grounded. Eye-roll at your teacher? Sent to detention(课后留校的惩罚) .So consider the following survival guide to making it through those moments when you're about to explode.
First,recognize your anger response. When you’ re angry,your whole body reacts,and your angry feelings can go from zero to out-of-control before they even register in your brain!That's why it's important to pay attenjion to physical signals. 39
Second,pause the passion. It can be impossible to make right decisions when you re angry. So once you ve recognized that you re mad,stop whatever you’ re doing,which will stop your body's anger response and get your brain back on track. Try one of these simple,science-backed methods to freeze your feelings and calm your mind. For example,you can take deep breaths,or close your eyes and count (to 10,to 100 ... whatever it takes!) . 40
Once the heat of the moment is behind you,you may be able to move right on.
A. You’ re angry,and who wouldn't be?
B. People sometimes lose control and get violent.
C. A simple “Hey man,not cool” would probably do the trick.
D. Or shift your focus to something pleasant to lift your spirits.
E. It is what you do about your anger that makes all the difference.
F. When an animal is threatened,it feels anger as a signal to fight to stay alive.
G. Learn to recognize them on the spot and you'11 be able to keep your anger in check.

Parents who help their kids with homework might feel disappointed after knowing what two researchers Angel L. Harris and Keith Robinson have found.
“We need to do away with the assumption that anything parents do will help. That assumes that parents have all the answers,but actually they don't,” Harris said.
“We found that when parents from various racial and socioeconomic groups regularly helped their child with homework,in most cases,it made no difference for the child's improvement in their test scores in reading,math,and their grades ,” Robinson said.
Could the findings simply reflect the fact that kids struggling with school ask for more homework help,thus making it look as though children who get more help do worse? No,Harris said,because the researchers measured the change in achievement among all kids,including those who performed well in school. The effect of parental homework involvement was the same across the board.
“Parents tend to hold the reins when it comes to how they’ re going to help with homework without consulting the child,” Robinson noted. “So maybe parents could ask kids, ‘Is what I'm doing helping you? How would you want me to help? ’ In this way,kids may benefit more from parents’ help."
Vicki Davis,a high school teacher,said she's seen her share of parents doing the assignments for their kids,especially writing papers,or taking charge of important and big projects. Davis expects elementary school students to get help from parents because they're still learning study skills,and she doesn’t mind if older students talk “big picture” with their families about a project. But in general,parents should limit their involvement in making sure kids are completing their homework,she advised.
Kerry Lyons,a mother of five in Irvington,N.Y., said the research findings are a “huge relief." Lyons works full time,so when she gets home,her kids — three kindergartners,one second-grader and one fourth-grader 一 are usually done with homework.
29. It was found that parental homework involvement generally.
A. has a poor effect
B. has a lasting effect
C. has a negative effect
D. has a significant effect
30. The underlined part “hold the reins” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by “”.
A. show up B. get ready
C. watch out D. take control
31. Who does Vicki Davis want parents to help with homework?
A. High school students.
B. Primary school students.
C. Students who are writing papers.
D. Students who perform poorly in school.
32. How did Kerry Lyons find the research findings?
A. Exciting. B. Surprising.
C. Comforting. D. Disappointing.

Many teachers use student participation as a basis on which to assign grades. Some criticize the practice as harmful to classroom dynamics,like two California high schoolers who wrote an opinion piece about it in their school newspaper. “A student who is unwilling or unable to speak in class does not always show a lack of care,since all students function in different ways，” they write,noting that some students require more time,or written assignments,to grasp new material presented in class.
They also point out the detrimental effect participation requirements can have on the quality of a lesson; for example,students might speak up only in an effort to get participation points,resulting in questions that lack insight and wasted opportunities for those who genuinely want to learn.
Finally,the high schoolers criticize the nature of participation grades. uSimply recording the number of times a person participates fails to capture the nature of what exactly was said,” they write,adding that participation grades leave too much room for teachers’ favoritism to show through.
Of course,there's a different side to every story. In a recent article in The Atlantic,a middle school teacher defends her decision to keep class participation as a requirement for her students. uAs a teacher,it is my job to teach grammar,vocabulary,and literature,but I must also teach my students how to succeed in the world we live in — a world where most people won’t stop talking”’ she says. “If anything,I feel even more strongly that my introverted(内向的) students must learp how to self-advocate by communicating with parents,educators,and the world at large."
She mentions several resources in the article. One such resource is Dr. Kendall Hoyt,an assistant professor of medicine at Dartmouth Medical School. Dr. Hoyt is a self-described introvert and mother of two introverts. “I understand that social anxiety is a real thing,and part of my job as a teacher is to teach people how to express themselves clearly and be heard,” Dr. Hoyt says. She also teaches this to her own children,creating chances for them that require them to approach strangers,make eye contact,and ask for something,like directions or information.
29. The article written by the two high schoolers is about whether students should .
A. speak freely in class
B. be graded on participation
C. spend more time speaking
D. be given written assignments
30. Which can best replace the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 2 ?
A. Lasting. B. Harmful.
C. Practical. D. Beneficial.
31. The middle school teacher mentioned in Paragraph 4 stresses the importance of .
A. English literature
B. vocabulary and grammar
C. grading students objectively
D. teaching students to express themselves
32. Why does the middle school teacher mention Dr. Hoyt in her article?
A. To express her doubts.
B. To support her argument.
C. To compare different ideas.
D. To attract readers* attention.
