24、As December comes to an end, you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life. But as you start to write down your hopes for the new year, you think about the last year. You excitedly write down all the changes you are going to make, but by the end of January those ideas get lost in your busy life.

“Kaizen”, a Japanese word, is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes. During World WarⅡ, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes. After the war, the idea was brought to a rebuilding Japan. It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “Kaizen”, which means “improvement”.

Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything.

27、   Students from two schools, The City School in Nigeria and Heathland School in the UK, recently took part in a project to compare their education and find out about student life in a very different country. As expected, they found many differences but also a few things that are similar.

The City School is in a district just outside Nigeria’s capital, Abuja. The school is surrounded  (环绕) by big trees and grassy fields that the children use to play football on. Heathland School is in a quiet suburb not far from central Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland.

Most of the 580 students at The City School are taught in pleasant one-storey yellow-brick buildings although some building work still needs to be done. Heathland School dates from the 1950s but some new facilities (设施) have been added recently.

Although The City School receives financial (财政的) help from the government, students still

have to pay school fees. It’s hard to find the money sometimes and quite a few parents struggle to keep their children in school. Unlike the Nigerian school, students at Heathland School only have  to buy their uniforms and pay for some extra activities.

Teachers and students at The City School are proud of their library and the science laboratory. They say that there’s not a school in the area that can match it. The school concentrates (专注于) on traditional subjects like Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry because this will make it easier for students to get into a good profession. Practical subjects like Farm Technology are also popular.

Heathland School recently became a performing arts college. This means that in addition to subjects like English and Mathematics, the school also offers lessons in Dance, Drama and Music  as choices for all students. There is a new dance studio which can also be used as a theatre.

Students in both schools found the project very interesting and hope to do further joint projects in the future.

28、My family moved into our house nine years ago and we called the area in front of our house “rock garden” as it was full of rocks.

Last summer, I found a tiny little p【1】 in the yard but I didn’t know its name. I knew I didn’t plant it. We decided to let it c【2】 growing until we could find out what it was.

Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mysterious plant, it s【3】 to be a sunflower. I decided to treat it with care and remove the weeds (杂草) a【4】 it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something u【5】. The sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk (茎) began. It had b【6】 under a big rock.

That’s when I realize that i【7】 a tiny little sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we also have the ability of doing the same thing. We need to believe in o【8】 knowing we have the abilities in a【9】 our aims. Like the sunflower, it was sure of the success.

Stand tall like the sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the e【10】 will begin to support you. You will find a way to reach your goals.
