The day came when I was ready to put my new _21_ to work. Lucas came home from school and as usual began to tick off
10、 his list of the _22_ things that had happened at school. I listened _23_, making my eye contact and _24_ with empathy (共情) before I asked, “What good things happened today, Lucas?” His response was what I _25_, “Nothing.”“Something good had to happen. You were there for six hours,” I _26_. Then I w

Then I would encourage him to see things _32_, and he would get back on the track of choosing to see the _33_ and losing the negative attitude. It was a _34_, but he was making headway.

24、 clothes, decorations, shoes and books. The process of tidying up my house brought peace to me and made me feel organized at heart.” Jessica told The Times. Like Jessica, more British have started to seek for help from home organizers to pursue minimalism (极简主义) lifestyles. This period has made many
25、 people appreciate everyday order and comfort. Having a comfortable living environment became more pressing for people who were forced to work at home and for families spending long hours together under one roof. “People are fearful of the future, especially with this pandemic” Sharon, told The Time
26、s. “Will it get worse? Will it return. I think it is a good idea to clear your home as a way of clearing your mind. This is an ideal time to tidy up and give some thought to what we have and to be thankful for it.”For most people, tidying up is much more than sorting things and putting them away. It
27、 can help begin a conversation with themselves and reflect upon their lives. Jenny, 27, has loved organizing things since childhood. While other children would throw their schoolbags on the floor and run out to play with their friends, Jenny, preferred to put her books and pencil box in order on her
28、 desk and enjoyed helping her mother fold shirts. Today she still practices this in her own life while also helping others. “Decluttering is not merely about getting rid of stuff and sorting things out. Its a way of improving relationships between people, their belongings and their space, which can
29、help lead to a tidy and comfortable life. Its about education and bringing beauty and harmony into ones living space,” Jenny told The Times. Did she face any difficulties while organizing homes? Obviously, yes. “Theres a tradition in Britain of treasuring possessions. Most people arent in the habit
30、of throwing out useless things unless theyre worn out. So we try to be accustomed to the idea and make it much more acceptable.” Jenny added.41What can we infer from Jessicas words?AThe home organizer threw away 50 per cent of her possessions.BThe home organizer raised her sense of order.CShe enjoys

35、sers know, a sleeping device can still consume the power of a battery. One solution for extending the battery life of wireless devices is to add a wake - up receiver that can tun on a shut - off device. Angad Rekhi, a university student, and Amin Arabians, an assistant professor have developed a wak
36、e - up receiver that turns on a device in response to ultrasonic (超声波的)signals. By working at a significantly smaller wavelength and switching from radio waves to ultrasound, this receiver is much smaller than similar wake - up receivers. This wake - up receiver has many potential applications, part
37、icularly in designing the next generation of networked devices, including the smart devices that can communicate directly with one another without humans role.Once attached to a device, a wake - up receiver listens for a unique ultrasonic pattern that tells it when to turn the device on. It only nee
38、ds a very small amount of power to maintain this constant listening, so it still saves energy.The designing of these receivers presented a number of challenges. “Miniaturizing wake - up receivers and driving down power consumption while maintaining or extending range are fundamental challenges,” Ang
39、ad said. “By doing so, the receivers can be small but powerful enough to fit in with the environment.”By comparison, the ultrasound wake - up receiver requires a battery but has much greater range than the wirelessly powered devices, These two technologies - wireless power and wake - up receivers wo
40、uld likely serve different purposes, but both indicate a turning point in devices that make up the Internet of things.“In light of a long - promised future where interconnected, autonomous, widespread and remarkable technologies make life easier, the networked devices available now, like video doorb
41、ells and app - enabled lights, seem like rather slight advances” the researchers explained. They believe technologies could help cross the gap between the Internet of things as we know it and the Internet of things at their best.46How does the wake - up receiver work?ABy getting permission from the
42、owner and turning on the device.BBy picking up the radio sound and turning it into the ultrasonic signal.CBy sensing the signal and turning on the device automatically.DBy receiving the ultrasonic signal and reminding its owner.47What is the main advantage of the wake - up receiver?AIt can receive s

45、o be an effective lender.I dont believe that to, be true. In fact, there are fewer truly effective leaders, instead, I see many more leaders sadly incompetent, and seriously misguided about their own abilities. Part of the reason this happens is a lack of honest self-assessment by those w ho pursue
46、leadership in the first place. Weve all met the type of individual who simply must take charge. Whether its a decision-making session, a basketball game, or a family outing, they cant help grabbing the lead position. They believe they are natural born leaders. Truth is, theyre nothing of the sort. True leaders dont assume that its their divine (神圣的) right to take charge every time two or more people get together. Quite the opposite. A great leader will assess each situation and will only take charge when their positi
