David Rees runs a very distinctive business. He charges custmers $15 t sharpen their pencils t perfectin, using a variety f tls.
I knw what yu’re thinking—is this a jke? The 39-year-ld gets asked that questin a lt. T clarify everything, he even created a special sectin n his website telling everyne he’s actually prviding a real service.
Yu can supply yur wn pencil r yu can have Rees sharpen ne f his wn favrite 2B pencils. After that, he mails it t yu in a display tube with the shavings in a separate bag, and an authentic certificate which just happens t mentin the pencil is s sharp as t be a dangerus bject.
T achieve the desired result, the master sharpener uses all kinds f tls, including general sandpaper, pcket knives and even a special $ 450 sharpening machine. “It depends n what the custmer wants t use his/her pencil fr,” he says. That determines the mst apprpriate pencil-sharpening technique. Sme custmers buy pencils as inspiratinal symbls while thers buy them because f their special memries f classic 2B pencils.

Hannah Huxfrd met the fry-stealing gull in Bridlingtn, a castal twn n the Yrkshire cast. Huxfrd psted the well-timed pht n her iPhne; it went viral (走红) sn after. A decade later, the fry-stealing gull is appearing n billbards, as part f an advertising campaign fr Ggle.
Researchers recently discvered that fd may actually becme mre attractive t gulls when the birds bserve humans handling it first, accrding t a 2020 study published in the jurnal Ryal Sciety Open Science.
Because the birds seem t be attracted t fd items that they’ve watched humans tuch, anther f the study’s authrs, says that it’s even mre imprtant t prperly thrw fd waste and snack wrappers in the trash. “Our findings suggest that gulls are mre likely t apprach fd that they have seen peple drp r put dwn, s they may assciate areas where peple are eating with an easy meal,” Dr. Laura Kelley said.
The scientists apprached 74 herring gulls in castal twns in Crnwall, attracting them with weighted bags f fried ptates. Only 19 gulls were curius r hungry enugh t linger (逗留), allwing the scientists t place the bag n the grund and mve back a shrt distance away, waiting t see if a gull wuld apprach.
Their experiments shwed that gulls were mre cautius abut appraching a tempting treat (诱饵) if there was a persn nearby wh was watching them clsely. Hwever, the scientists als fund that far fewer f the birds than expected shwed interest in investigating the fd at all when being stared at.
In fact, peple may be able t prtect their lunches frm gulls by aviding areas where the birds tend t gather and keeping a clser eye n their meals, she added. “Gulls have a bad reputatin but, like all animals, they are just trying t survive,” Gumas said. “We can try t sften the cnflict we have with them by making changes in ur wn behavir.”
8．Why des the authr mentin “the fry-stealing gull pht” in Paragraph 1?
A．T pen up the tpic.B．T kid abut the gull.
C．T tell us a TV series.D．T intrduce the backgrund.
9．What did gulls prefer accrding t the study?
A．Phts taken by peple.B．Areas full f fd waste.
C．Fd that visitrs are eating.D．Snack wrappers in the trash.
10．What can we knw abut gulls frm the scientists’ experiments?
A．They dn’t like the fd left ver by humans.
B．They apprach the treat when they are hungry.
C．They are interested in eating fd with humans.
D．They prbably wn’t eat the treat when being watched.
11．What’s Gumas’s attitude t the actin f the fry-stealing gull?
A．Optimistic.B．Sympathetic.
C．Skeptical.D．Indifferent.
There are sme things mney can’t buy. Educatin, hwever, des nt appear t be amng them—at least as measured by perfrmance n internatinal exams. A new study by Harvard University ffers strng evidence that the wealth f a cuntry affects exam results just as much as the wealth f a pupil’s husehld des. On average, pupils in wealthy cuntries btain vastly higher test scres than thse in develping nes.
Evaluating test scres arund the wrld is harder than it sunds. Althugh pupils in the rich wrld mstly take ne f a few big internatinal exams, many develping cuntries rely n reginal tests, making apples-t-apples cmparisns impssible.
Researchers rganized an exam in 2016 fr 2,314 children in India, which included bth questins frm the leading tests and nes taken frm smaller exams. Using answers frm the same pupils n the same day t questins frm different tests, they built a statistical mdel they called a “Rsetta Stne”. It can translate scres frm a range f exams—such as ne used nly in west Africa—int an equal mark n ther cmmn internatinal tests.
They then used these equatins（等式）t estimate hw pupils in 80 different cuntries wuld fare n the benchmark（基准）Trends in Internatinal Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). Their data shw that the wealth f a student’s cuntry and family have similar impacts n test scres—meaning that big gaps in GDP per persn matter mre than small nes in husehld incme d. Fr example, pupils frm families that are very pr by rich-wrld standards—thse earning $5,000 a year—are expected t scre arund 500 ut f 1,000 n the TIMSS in America, and 560 in Japan. In cntrast, thse whse parents make $10,000 a year in an upper-middle incme cuntry can nly get the equivalent（等价物）f a 475.
The influence f parental earnings is nt cnstant. Rich peple tend t educate their children privately in places where wealth is cncentrated, such as Brazil. Hwever, in cuntries with relatively flat incme distributins, like Cratia, pupils frm different scial classes are mre likely t attend the same schls. This culd reduce the impact f family wealth n test scres.
12．Why is it hard t evaluate the exam scres n a glbal level?
A．Because the types f exams vary with cuntries.
B．Because many rich cuntries refuse reginal tests.
C．Because the wealth f a cuntry affects exam results.
D．Because n internatinal exam is available t pr areas.
13．Why did the researchers establish a “Rsetta Stne”?
A．T integrate different exams int a cmmn ne.
B．T evaluate different exams with distinct appraches.
C．T fix the standard f the exams in different cuntries.
D．T turn scres f different exams int an equivalent mark.
14．What can we learn frm the last tw paragraphs?
A．Pr students tend t be academically superir t rich nes.
B．Students frm rich families will definitely get higher grades.
C．The influence f family incme n students is related t circumstances.
D．Peple with high scial status are mre likely t educate their children privately.
15．What is the text mainly abut?
A．Educatin is smething mney can’t buy.
B．The wealth f a cuntry matters fr educatin.
C．Family incme plays an imprtant rle in educatin.
D．A statistical mdel helps t evaluate the exam scres.
