1、每日一练每日一练 18 It was a rainy morning and the children, mainly boys with various learning difficulties, refused to 1 for the start of the lesson. As an inexperienced teacher, I tried every means to get them to be 2 , but in vain. My 3 was rising and I could feel my heart beating wildly. This was the 4
2、of my job as a music teacher, I thought teaching was not for me. Then I had an idea. Hoping that no one would notice that I was 5 inside, I threw my voice as far as it would reach: “Put your heads on the desks and close your 6 ! We are going on a journey.” 7 , the children fell silent. “Now what sho
3、uld I do?” I thought to myself. Reaching over to my collection of CDs, I 8 took one out, put it in the machine and played it. Obediently (顺从地), my class lay their heads on their desk, closed their eyes and 9 . When the music started, the room as filled with the most beautiful tones and musical color
4、s I could have ever imagined. All the children were 10 . When the music finished, I asked them all to raise their 11 slowly so that we could share our musical journey. At this point, when all the children were willing to share their experiences, I began to learn how to 12 . The music allow me to lea

8、r is found in the Arctic Circle and some big land masses as far south as Newfoundland. While they are rare north of 88 , there is 16 (evident) that they range all the way across the Arctic, and as far south 17 James Bay in Canada. Its difficult to figure out a 18 (globe) population of polar bears as
9、 much of the range has been poorly studied; however, biologists calculate that there are about 20,000-25,000 polar bears worldwide. Modem methods of 19 (track) polar bear populations have been employed only since the mid-1980s, and are expensive 20 (perform) consistently over a large area. In recent
10、 years some Inuit people in Nunayut 21 (report) increases in bear sightings around human settlements, leading to a belief that populations are increasing. Scientists have responded by noting that hungry bears may be gathering around human settlements, leading 22 the illusion(错觉) that populations are
11、 higher than they 23 (actual) are. Of 24 19th recognized polar bear subpopulations, three are declining, six are stable, one 25 (be) increasing, and nine lack enough data. Bad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the even
12、ing broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored(监控) in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking peoples e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.
13、 “The if it bleeds rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and dont care how youre feeling. But when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You dont want them to think of you as a Debbie Do
14、wner.” Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communicatione-mails, Web posts and reviews, face-to-face conversationsfound that it tended to be more positive than negative(消极的), but that didnt necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people exp
15、erienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York Times website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months. One of his first findings w
16、as that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others. Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired nega
17、tive feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发) one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things
