5、 falls that lead to broken bones and brain injuries. “Elderly patients tend not to report falls to their families, or even doctors. A fall is a very frightening thing that you keep quiet about.

But the books she was reading at school were starting to get on her nerves. She enjoyed Where the Red Fern Grows

12、 and The Shi-loh Series, but those classics, found in so many primary school classrooms, were all about white boys or dogs or white boys and their dogs. Black girls, like Marley, were almost never the main character. What she was noticing is actually a much bigger issue: fewer than 10 percent of chi

15、ne. She is already making the steps toward having a successful and meaningful career. At 11, she s aware of the racism in the publishing industry. Like the television and movies, the publishing industry does not represent black girls or other people of color in positive ways. The whitewashing (漂白 )

16、in this industry extends beyond not having people of color as characters. In 2012, white men wrote 88% of the book reviews. In 2013, only about 2% of the books were about black characters.

But Sheridan Community Schools is the first school district in Indiana to be completely solar-powered. The district finished installing solar panels

22、(太阳能板 ) for all three of its schools in 2016. Some of the panels can turn to follow the sun across the sky. Sheridans solar push is part of a trend. In 2008, fewer than 1,000 schools used solar power. By 2014, there were 3,727 schools with solar panels in the US. This data comes from a report by the

23、 Solar Foundation, an organization that promotes the use of solar power. Roxie Brown, a program director there, says that the number of schools with solar panels has continued to rise since 2014. (79) Solar power has some obvious advantages over other energy sources. Sunlight is a renewable (可再生的 )

24、resource, which means it wont run out. Solar panels dont harm the environment. Also, sunlight is free. So by using solar power, schools can save money on energy costs over time.

25、o borrow money to pay for its solar transition. (80) The panels also take up space. But for many schools, going solar is worth it. The use of solar energy can also help students learn about electricity and environmental issues. Teachers at schools that use solar power often incorporate it into their

26、 science lessons. The kids talk about it in the classroom. Then they can look at it in action. According to Brown, the educational impact of solar panels is “the most compelling reason“ for schools to install them. Brown hopes the panels will give Sheridan students a global perspective. “The world i

The good lady first began with【 C2】 _some milk into her hand and【 C3】 _him drink from it. Very soon, he would not take milk【 C4】 _any other way. After his dinner, he would run to

46、a soft blanket that was【 C5】 _in Jane s bedroom. He slept there【 C6】 _one or two hours. This was all very well in the day, but Jane did not feel【 C7】 _in leaving him loose during the night.
