15、ct children to read and love to read when they are given material that is frequently too hard for them? Science and social studies textbooks are at least a grade above the reading levels of many students, experts say, and in some suburban and urban school systems, reading lists can include books har

16、d for some adults to tackle. Toni Morrisons award-winning novel “Beloved,“ about a former slaves decision to kill her child rather than see her enslaved, is on some middle schools lists for kids to read unassisted. And elementary schools sometimes ask students to read books such as “The Bridge to Te

17、rabithia,“ with themes about death and gender roles that librarians say are better suited for older children. To be sure, pushing some students to challenge themselves is important, educators say. But there are points where kids read books before they can truly comprehend them and then lose the beau

18、ty of the work. “Teachers studied The Great Gatsby in college and then want to teach that book because they have smart things to say about it, and they teach it in high school,“ Calkins said. “Then schools want to get their middle school kids ready for high school so they teach them The Catcher in t

20、es of children read below grade level. The average fifth-grade student in Detroit and Baltimore, for example, reads at a third-grade level, he said, but schools still give them fifth-grade core reading and social studies texts.

Sofi Sinozich, a seventh-grader in the Humanities and Communications Magnet Program at Eastern Middle

22、 School in Montgomery County, said she would like to be assigned books that speak to her. In sixth-grade English, “graphic novels were excluded, which annoyed many of us,“ said Sofi, who is partial to Japanese comics called manga because she finds the style beautiful and the stories well done. Many

23、teachers exclude graphic novels and comics from reading lists, even though a graphic novel was nominated for the National Book Award this year. And Archbishop Desmond Tutu, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, has said he learned to read through comics after his schoolmaster father disregarded others who sai

24、d they would lead to no good. So should kids read Shakespeare or the comics? Graphic novels or “To Kill a Mockingbird“? Reading experts say they should read everything when they are ready to understand what they are reading. 17 The novel “Beloved“ of Toni Morrison is cited as an example to show that

Its all about keeping our restaurants more relevant for

36、our customers.“ McDonalds has undergone an image change in more ways than one since a time 2.5 years ago when its sales and reputation were sagging amid complaints about its service and food.

Snazzier new restaurants are part of the makeover; about 1,000, mostly older U.S. McDonalds have been either renovated or rebuilt since 2002.

And apart from all that, youve got photocopiers. Shopkeeper: Thats right. Interviewer: And a fax machine. Shopkeeper:

45、 Indeed. Interviewer: Yes. How did. I mean, why the photocopiers? Shopkeeper: Everything thats happened in my shop has almost happened by accident. But when I got into Clifton, I needed a photocopy one day and no one could tell me where to go. So it struck me that if I didnt know where to go, other

Interviewer: Yes, who, what sort of people do use it? Shopkeeper: Um, a lot of professional people surveyors

47、, engineers particularly people who need to send plans. Because in the past you could send messages via telex, but a telex cant express a plan, whereas facsimile has that dimension, the added dimension. Interviewer: Right. And do people send these fax messages abroad, or is it just to this country?

48、Shopkeeper: Well, its surprising because when I started, I thought Id be sending things to London and maybe Birmingham but, in fact, a high percentage of it is sent abroad, because its immediate, its very speedy.
