By the time Jennings’ only child was 17, he stopped joining his father. Even though his son

50、 is all grown up now, Jennings hasn’t slowed down his efforts. In fact, he has turned his recycling money into something bigger. The Ringgold, Georgia native visits local churches and businesses to collect paper, which he brings to a recycling center for money. But instead of putting those earnings

51、 in his own bank account, he sends every dollar to Georgia Baptist Children’s Homes & Family Ministries. Once a year, he’ll give the organization a check somewhere between $ 10，000 and $ 35，000. By 2016, that tallied up to $ 400，000. These days, Jennings’ recycling has turned into a community eff

52、ort. After he has made his own rounds recycling paper from businesses and churches, he’ll find more items waiting for him at home. Community members drop off other recyclables at his house so he can sell them, along with books, food, clothes, and other items to give away. Recycling centers typicall

53、y pay just one－h(huán)alf to three cents per pound of paper, but Jennings’ visits have added up the big time. In 2016 alone, he sold more than 400，000 pounds of paper and 51，000 aluminum cans(鋁罐)，and collected more than 32，000 pennies. Over the course of 32 years he has recycled more than 9.8 million poun

54、ds of paper, saving an estimated 79，000 trees in the process. Jennings says he’ll continue raising money for charity as long as his health allows. 【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】　文章講述了樂于助人的Johnny Jennings常年回收廢舊物品資助慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的故事。 1．How old was Johnny Jennings when he started recycling?

D．Supportive. D　解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Community members drop off...to give away.”可知，Johnny Jennings所在社區(qū)的成員們支持他回收廢舊物品資助慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的工作。 4．What

57、makes Johnny Jennings special? A．His long life and hobby. B．His recycling work and donation. C．The pennies he collects. D．The amount of trees he plants. B　解析：推理判斷題。文章講述Johnny Jennings常年回收廢舊物品資助慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的故事。所以是回收廢舊物品資助慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的故事讓Johnny Jennings與眾不同。 B A principal in Manhattan informed parents that the

58、re would be no more homework for the public school’s students. And then came the arguments—not from teachers, but from parents. Some said they would transfer their children to another school. Some said they were finding online sources of homework for their children. They were not convinced of the ex

59、planation from Principal Jane Hsu about the negative effects of homework on young children, including lack of time for other activities and family time, and loss of interest in learning. Hsu suggested children should spend their time on activities that had been found to be good for their academic, s

60、ocial and emotional development. As a supporter of Hsu’s approach, I wonder how many of the parental arguments occur not because of what children will miss out on, but because parents themselves no longer feel confident about their ability to help their children develop without highly structured ac

61、tivities to guide them. I’m reminded of a meeting at the school my younger daughter was about to start when she was 6. The head of the school met with parents to say that she was also considering doing away with homework. One mom objected because homework was her “special time” each day with her ch

62、ild when they could sit down together to go through the work. The head of the school appeared surprised at this. She gently suggested that the mother should read to her child, or that they should cook dinner together. It’s been sad already to see that kids, between their structured soccer practices

63、 and their homework, have very little time to play. But it’s even sadder to see the parental nervousness about what might happen to a third-grader who has more time to create, think, read，interact with others, or imagine. What might happen, I believe, must be more happiness, more energy and better p
