His successful marble pany, Marble King, sells all things marble-related from affordable tubs of the glass playthings to significantly expensive items like Duke of York solitaire tables sourced, purchased and processed by the mini-CEO himself.“I like having my own pany. I like being the boss,” Harli told the Mirror.With profits now in the thousands, “the worlds youngest CEO” has had to get his mother and older brothers to help him meet the growing demand.Harli launched Marble King after swapping marbles at school led to schoolchildren consuming his marble collection. Yes, he literally “lost his marbles.” Harli and his mother, Tina, turned to the Internet to find replacements.Harli saw an empty space online: the marbles he wanted were hard to find. Within months, Harli had his own marble-selling website and orders started pouring in.Tina says her sons attachment to marbles started when he was just 6.“His attachment became so passionate that we started calling him the Marble King so when he wanted to set up a website it was the natural name for it,” she told The Sun.“I never thought it would bee so popular we are struggling to cope with the number of orders at times.”The 8-year-old boy has his sights set on expanding his business and launching his own brand of marbles.“Sometimes his ideas are so grand we have to scale them back a bit. But his dream is still to own Britains biggest marble shop and open stores around the world,” Tina told The Daily Mail.“At the moment he is annoying me by creating his own Marble King marbles so that could well be the next step for him.”51.

In the age of the keyboard, some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out. 90% of teachers say they are required to teach handwriting. But studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it. One study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting. Some teachers are teaching handwriting by providing instruction for ten to fifteen minutes a day, and then other teachers who basically teach it for sixty to seventy minutes a day which really is pretty much for handwriting.Many adults remember learning that way by copying letters over and over again. Todays thinking is that short periods of practice are better. Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself. Instead, they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas. After all, that is why we write.Handwriting involves two skills. One is legibility, which means forming the letters so they can be read. The other is fluency writing without having to think about it. Fluency continues to develop up until high school.But not everyone masters these skills. Teachers monly report that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting. Some people might think handwriting is not important any more because of puters and voice recognition programs.But Steve Graham at Vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school, especially in the early years. American children traditionally first learn to print, and then to write in cursive, which connects the letters. But guess what we learned from a spokeswoman for the College Board, which administers the SAT college admission test. More than 75% of students choose to print their essay on the test rather than write in cursive.55. We can infer from the first paragraph that _.A. teachers spend little time in teaching handwriting.B. most teachers attach importance to teaching handwriting.C. handwriting teaching is not monly required.D. most teachers are at a loss how to teach handwriting56. Which of the following about traditional handwriting in the USA is NOT true?A. The students are taught by practicing a long period.B. Printing is taught in preference to writing in cursive.C. Handwriting is taught for its own sake. D. Two skills get involved in handwriting.57. Some American people consider handwriting not important any more because _.A. all the American children learn to print firstB. about 1/4 of the students choose to print their essay on the testC. it is unnecessary to use handwriting in the age of keyboardD. puters and voice recognition programs are widely used58. _ may serve as the best title for the passage.A. Handwriting: fascinating in keyboard ageB. Right or wrong: the death of handwritingC. Two skills involved in handwritingD. Handwriting lessons on the way outCMany cities in the world are benefiting from the night activities of a group of people who call themselves guerrilla (游击队) gardeners. Armed with trowels, spades and a van full of flowers and plants, guerrilla gardeners turn abandoned urban land into a blaze of color. In city centre locations where there was mud, weeds and empty plastic bottles, residents often wake up to find that the wasted area has been transformed overnight with brightly-colored bedding plants.In most British cities, local governments and police turn a blind eye to the effort of the gardeners, whose activities are always carried out under cover of nightfall. And so far, there has been nothing but praise from the astonished and delighted local residents when they find their neighborhood transformed in such a striking fashion.Not only do the guerrilla gardeners beautify neglected places, they also return regularly to water the plants and weed the flower beds. They also make sure that at least some of the plants they bring are evergreens, which means that the area doesnt look depressing in the winter months.The first guerrilla gardener in London was Richard Reynolds, whose day job is at an advertising agency. Mr. Reynolds, a graduate of Oxford University, began his efforts two years ago when he moved to a flat in a tower block in South London. From his balcony, he could see several empty concrete pots, placed by the local governments to contain plants but never used. He went out after midnight and filled the pots with plants, and then planted more flowers in the path leading to the entrance to the block.He then set up a website to explain his plan and called upon more gardeners to join him. Cash donations flooded in and, more importantly, volunteers rushed to be part of the campaign. Within six months, there were five hundred people in London prepared to e out at very short notice to restore neglected parts of the urban landscape. There are now unofficial but carefully-organized groups in many cities in Britain and North America and there is also a website where would-be urban gardeners can find out the location of the next expedition.59. These guerrilla gardeners do their work _.A. at the request of the government B. nearby their houseC. often in return for others helpD. out of their own free will60. Richard Reynolds decided to fill the pots with plants in order to _.A. plant more flowers in the pathB. beautify the neighborhoodC. attract attention for his ad agencyD. make the plants a feast for his eyes61. The guerrilla gardeners often return to their night working places with the purpose of _.A. looking after these plantsB. enjoying these beautiful flowersC. helping plants live through winter monthsD. changing the varieties of the plants62. It can be inferred from the text that these guerrilla gardeners _.A. are mainly from the United KingdomB. will later get well paidC. are still not accepted by the local governmentD. bee more and more organizedDThere are plenty of creams etc on the market that help you look younger, but today, Dr Oz is going to show how some people are actually living longer.“We are going to talk about extreme life extension,” he says. “I am talking in details about allowing us to go into our second century of life with the energy that you have when you are a young person.”Owing to advances in technology and research on how diet affect the aging process, Dr Oz says it might be possible for some people to live to see their 120th birthdays.Theres one man in Oprahs audience who Dr Oz says may bee the first man in history to live to be 150 years old. Joe Cordell is one of thousands around the world who believe theyve found the key to an extreme long life - calorie restriction leads to a longer, healthier life.At 59 Joe weighs 130 pounds. He may not look like a person who needs to count calories, but as part of his life extension program, he inspects every mouth of food that passes through his system.Every day for the past seven years, Joe has limited himself to about 1,950 calories.He believes that by eating less and restricting his caloric intake, he will trigger a genetic switch that slows the aging process.Joe doesnt take away himself of food. Instead, the then 52-year-old father filled up on natural fruits, vegetables and lean proteins(瘦蛋白) that were packed with necessary vitamins and nutrients. “Whenever you are thinking about calorie restriction, you should continually think about getting the most nutritional amount per calorie,” Joe says.In keeping with this principle, Joe starts every morning with three applesbut he only eats the peels. “Most of the fiber is in the peel, and more importantly, most of the nutrients are in the peel,” he says.“It is important to eat some nuts with breakfast so that you do take in some fat, some healthy fats,” he says. “I think it helps the absorption of the nutrients, and it is very filling.”For lunch, Joe usually eats a large salad, loaded with vegetables. At dinnertime, he and his family enjoy lean meat or fish and more vegetables.When Joe started practicing calorie restriction, he weighed 175 pounds. Since then, he has lost 45 pounds, and he says he hasnt had a cold in seven years. Though he is in his “golden years”, researchers studying Joe say he has the body of a 20-year-old athlete.63. According to Joe, the appropriate fat intake may help _? A. people lose weightB. feel always fullC. the absorption of the nutrients D. people to live longer64. What can we learn about Joe since he started the calorie restriction program?A. Joe counts the amount of every mealB. Joe has never had a coldC. Joe eats three apples every morningD. Joe has a large salad with vegetables for dinner65. The underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 7 can probably be replaced by _.A. turn onB. break downC. take upD. cut off
