Li Lu’ou thought he did the right thing by calling 110 when he saw his two classmates in trouble on the corner of a dark street.
Li and his classmates from NO.2 Middle School Affiliated to Beijing Normal University spent this year’s Valentine’s Day selling roses on the street.As night approached,they cycled back with over 200 yuan in their pockets.
Suddenly,a gang of robbers jumped out at them.The five robbers were tall and strong,so Li ran away to call the police.He thought it would be the most practical thing to do and he was right.His classmates returned safe and sound.
So,what would you have done in Li’s situation?Would you have got off your bike and fought the robbers to rescue your friends?
A new Beijing student code does not encourage you to risk your life to help them.
The new code was introduced to more than 1.7 million primary and middle school students in the city at the start of the new term.
It has cut words which might encourage youngsters to risk their lives for others dangerous situations.Gone are the old calls,which had been in place since 1987,for students to“fight criminals courageously”and “sacrifice themselves to save others”.
Children’s heroic acts usually left them injured or even dead because they failed to fully foresee the dangers of their actions.
A wellknown example was Lai Ning,who was listed among the “top 10 model young pioneers” in 1989 after he lost his life trying to put out a fire at the age of 14.
The deaths connected to teenagers’“heroic acts” started a nationwide debate about the protection of youngsters.
Wei Lusheng,a parent in Beijing,said schools must first teach children how to protect themselves,before learning from heroes.
But educators thought the spirit of courage should not be thrown away in the new student code.
“Getting rid of the words‘fight criminals courageously’do not mean we deny the spirit of‘fearlessness’and ‘readiness’to help others.”said Li Jing,an official in Beijing.“But,we should be more rational about the spirit of sacrifice.”
Li Lu’ou agreed.“Cherishing life is no reason to be a coward,” he said.“but you need make sure you are able to offer help.For example,it would cause more trouble if I jumped into water to rescue someone drowning,but didn’t know how to swim.In that situation it’s better to call the police or an adult.”
41.Which is true about Li and his classmates?
A.They bought roses for each other on Valentine’s Day.
B.They called 110 immediately when they were held up by a gang of robbers.
C.Li risked his life for his classmates in the dangerous situation.
D.Instead of fighting the robbers Li thought it right for him to call the police.
42.The new student code was introduced in Beijing because______.
A.students are facing more danger than they used to
B.the old student code didn’t include the spirit of courage
C.the old one didn’t tell students how to protect themselves while helping others in trouble
D.the old student code encouraged students to sacrifice themselves to save others.
43.Which can be inferred about Lai Ning?
A.He was one of the top 10 model young pioneers in 1987.
B.If it weren’t him,the forest fire would not have been put out.
C.According to the new code,he shouldn’t have risked his life to put out the fire.
D.His deeds did not agree with what the old student code encouraged.
44.The underlined word“deny ”in the second last paragraph means“________”.
A.a(chǎn)gree with B.disagree with
C.connect with D.object to
45.According to the new student code which of the following statements is right?

B.The police in Beijing will have a more difficult time in keeping order.
C.The spirit of“fearlessness”and “readiness”help others will be thrown away.

The UK higher education industry stands among the top five export earners for Britain Moocs have grown rapidly in the US over the past year, with two providers leading the field. Coursera offers courses from 33 Universities, including Princeton, Brown, Columbia and Duke, and has reached more than 1.7 million users, EdX, a nonprofit start-up from Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology courses this autumn.
Simon Nelson, one of the key architects of BBC Online, will head FutureLearn as launch CEO. “It’s really meaningful for these universities to come together –we’ll punch much harder collectively than any other university will individually,” he said.
Partner Institutions will be responsible for their own content while the OU, which has been providing distance-learning courses since 1971, will assist with course delivery and infrastructure. Details of further universities will be revealed next year, as will the courses on offer.

It means that you must have he ability to love and accept yourself in order to form and keep satisfying relationship with others self-esteem means accepting yourself for who you really are, and believing that you are indeed a ivdrthwhile person who is deserving of love and respect from others.
Self-esteem is our sense of how good we feel about ourselves. It is based on our judgment of urselves, not on other people's assessment, but simply on our own. Our self-esteem is not efaendent on our talent. Some very ordinary people feel very good about themselves, while other extranordinarily high achievers hold low opintions of themselves.
Self-esteem is the primary key to long-term stress managerment. Why? The first three sourees of stress are: predictable life event, unexpected changes and build-up of daily stresscs, These are much easier to handle when we believe in ourselves, A postive, healthy self-estcem gives us the “hardiness”(強健) to deal with the difficulities of life, and to see them as challenges to be met, rather than threals to be feared.
The forth category of streesons is entirely the result of a low self-esteem. It is the category of stress that is most common and tiring over the long run. This kind of stress cannol be overcome, or evenchanged, until the self-exteem problems that cause it are corrected.
Learning to love yourself for who y ou are is the key to overcoming stress. Self-esteem comes form the self, and cannot be promoted by others. A person who fecls that his self-estecm comes from the approval of those around him or her is bound to self-destruct(自毀), One cannot keep the level of “performance” required to please everyone else, especially if that performance disagrees with who you are and is simply a facade that makes you popular with the world. When the applause is gone, there is nothing left.
Only those who can feel the strength of knowing who they are and those who can feel good about that will survive the stresses of life. Sef-esteem is the basis of contentment and positive living.
