1、Since he was nine, Babar Ali has been running his own school in a small village, passing on to the children of poor families the knowledge he has acquired at his school during the day.
It began when children in his village asked him questions about what he learned at the 1000-rupee-a-year school their parents could not afford.
"It started when without much effort", he says. "There were lots of children who had dropped out of school, or never been to school at all. They were always asking questions about my lessons and I would repeat everything for them.
"There used to be just eight pupils, and my friends helped me with the teaching. We worked on the standard of teaching. The word spread to nearby villages, and gradually we took on more and more students.
Five years later, the school has a total of 10 teachers, all of whom are students at school, and 650 pupils.
On a typical day, Babar will rise at 5 am, do housework, then take a bus to school in a village three miles away. From 10 am to 4 Pm, he focuses on his own studies, then he races back to his village to welcome his students at 5 pm, teaches until 8 pm. The teaching doesn't make him tired, he says, but gives him more strength to keep up his busy life.
His parents are filled with pride. His father, Nasiruddin, was shocked when he first discovered his son was teaching. "I couldn't believe it. He's always rushing from place to place and I was worried it might affect his studies. So I visited his school. Seeing his dedication to teaching cleared my doubts," he says.
In 2009, Babar was named the "youngest headmaster in the world" by BBC. From then on, his story appeared in many textbooks, and now he is regularly invited to speak at many meetings all over the world.

3、I switched to a flip phone. It vastly improved my life. I felt empty and frustrated at how much time I spent on my smartphone. So I spent the last five years steadily stripping my phone down to the basics. Social media was the first to go, then email, then news apps, and then even internet browsers.
I long considered switching to a flip phone, but I always found an excuse to stay. Ultimately it was two of my students, 15- and 18-year-old sisters, who pushed me over the edge. Word spread around school that they had bought flip phones. If they were brave enough to take the plunge, I could, too. I spent $9 on a flip phone, plus $120 for a year of unlimited talk and text on a new number. For the last five months, I haven't carried a smartphone with me, just my flip phone.
This is the charming, romantic side of owning a flip phone: more conversations, more eye contact, more connection. The separation between work and life is much more noticeable. I don't overthink work emails all day, since I no longer carry my work email in my pocket. I am living more like my creative, curious, phone-free children.
This all sounds wonderful because it is wonderful. And now it's confession time: I still have my smartphone. As it turns out, our addiction to smartphones is not just on an individual level. Intentionally or not, we have built structures that depend upon smartphone access, making it an essential feature of modern life. While most of the flip phone inconveniences are charming, some of them are so frustrating that they make you want to pull your hair out.
Despite that, I will continue to use a flip phone as my primary phone so I don't have to carry a smartphone with me. And I will continue to evangelize for it. I hope many others get flip phones. We will all be better for it. If nothing else, it'll be nice to have more people to talk to in the grocery line.
(1)、What ultimately caused the author to switch to a flip phone?A、Disturbance of social media. B、Inspiration from his students. C、Time overspent on his smartphone. D、Negative feelings to smartphones.(2)、What happened after the author used a flip phone?A、More interactions with people. B、Less work assignments. C、More time with his children. D、Low work effeciency.(3)、What can be inferred about the author?A、Belief that flip phones are completely without inconveniences. B、Thought that smartphone addiction is solely an individual problem. C、Complete abandonment of smartphones for flip phones. D、Belief in widespread integration and importance of smartphones in modern society.(4)、What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A、To recommend using a flip phone. B、To advocate living without a smartphone. C、To share his story of switching to a flip phone. D、To stress the disadvantages of having a smartphone. -

20、阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
I became a nurse because of my dad. He was affected with cancer, and I just saw with my own (eye) the people who made the most difference: They comforted him, (help) case his pain. I wanted to be a part of that. Trust in nursing is almost on a spiritual level. The people we care for are the most (frighten) and sensitive. They trust that you will give everything you have and that you will be there for them physically, mentally, (emotional), and spiritually.
A parent of a child who I was taking care of for several months (beg) me for help one day. She requested that her son should be taken care of that night. I said of course, and I looked at (she) and could tell something was wrong. When asked, she told me he was going to die and she wanted me to be present for them. That night turned out to be a sacred (神圣的) moment she held his right hand and I held his left. I was regarded not only a caregiver but also someone she trusted so much he wanted me to be there when he took his last breath. I don't think you could feel more trusted that.
