When the 2018-2019 NBA season kicked off in October, the NBA lifted its color restrictions on players sneakers. I

19、t is the first time in the leagues 72-year history that it has allowed shoes to be of any color a player likes, as long as no reflective (反光的) material is included.Inthe past, the NBA required “uniformity (一致性) of uniform”, meaning each players shoes had to match those worn by the rest of the team.

20、Their sneakers had to be at least 51 percent black or white, with an element of team color.Thislandmark rule change is part of the NBAs collective effort to support players “statements” on and off the court. “ More and more people realize that limitation of the color of players shoes actually constr

21、ains (限制) their personal expression and storytelling,” CNN News noted.Sometimes a shoe was worn in a memorable game, or the design of a shoe has meaning for the player.Before Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, nicknamed “the Black Mamba”, retired, it was said that he wore a new pair of sneake

In 2013, Bryant added nine red stitches (縫針) to the back of his shoe to represent the nine stitches from his Achil

That is my Mamba personality,” Bryant told Sports Illustrated magazine.Kyrie Irving of the Boston, Celtics wears probably the most famous signature sneakers. Inspired by his mother, who died when he was four, he has a rose on one side of his shoe to re

24、present her. All of his sneakers are also inscribed (刻) with the words, “JBY (Just Be You)”. “Just Be You is the motto I live by every single day, because Im happy to be an individual.

28、rning, I dropped our eldest at kindergarten and returned home to let our two younger children play while I worked on my medical report.

29、 grow. My career enabled me to work from home. I could work from home, and become a foster (領(lǐng)養(yǎng)) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately.OnMonday morning, I picked up the phone and dialed the number I had googled for the nearest Department of Childrens Services. The man on the

Holidays are really important Many of us will have childhood memories of summer holidays where we were taken away from home to experience new environments and learn in different waysButholidays are expensive and, for those on low wages or livi

38、ng on benefits,_ are often unobtainable Even the cheapest holidays require travel and other additional costs that are difficult for many families to meetForworking parents, the long summer break can be a very difficult problem for childcare When an annual leave allowance amounts to only five weeks,

39、there is a need to spread this across the year Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn in order to care for children who are on holiday For some, this makes even an affordable family holiday difficultTheschools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our

40、 children a caring and inspiring learning environment The number of children receiving free school meals is quite large in Nottingham and many schools have breakfast clubs to make sure that children get a healthy start to the day Most schools undertake programs of group or individual educational sup

41、port Schools also have an important role in safeguarding childrens welfare through the ongoing touch and support with their pupils During the long summer holidays, much of this is missedWhile teachers are holidaying in the UK, many of their pupils spend the whole six weeks on the street where they l

42、ive The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget and an inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learningInsetting out its plans for a fiveterm year, Nottingham City Council （委員會） is seeking to reduce the summer holid

43、ay down to four and a half weeks, with a more balanced five terms of roughly eight weeks, each followed by a twoweek break We believe this will give real down time for school staff and pupils alike but will be short enough not to cause a real break in learningWeacknowledge that this change may be di

47、year can hardly be carried outC.the long summer holiday gives teachers and students real down timeD.some school staff will say No to the plans for a shorter summer holiday To learn to think is to learn to question. Those who dont question never truly think for themselves. These are simple rules that

48、 have governed the advancement of science and human thought since the beginning of time. Advancements are made when thinkers question theories and introduce new ones. Unfortunately, it is often the great and respected thinkers who end up slowing the progress of human thought. Aristotle was a brillia

49、nt philosopher whose theories explained much of the natural world, often incorrectly. He was so esteemed by the scientific community that even 1,200 years after his death, scientists were still trying to build upon his mistakes rather than correct them!Brilliant minds can intimidate upandcoming thin

50、kers who are not confident of their abilities. They often believe they are inferior to the minds of giants such as Aristotle, leading many to accept current paradigms instead of questioning them.I, like many thinkers of the past, once believed in my mental inferiority. I was certain that my parents,

51、 my teachersadults in generalwere always right. They were like a textbook to me; I didnt question what was written on those pages. I respected them, and accepted whatever they told me. But that attitude soon changed. My minds independence was first stimulated in the classroom.A stern, 65-year-old el

52、ementary-school science teacher once told me that light is a type of wave. I confidently went through years of school believing that light is a wave. One day,however I heard the German exchange student mention that light could be made up of particles. As the others laughed at his statement, I starte

53、d to question my beliefs.Maybe the teachers and textbooks hadnt given me the whole story. I went to the library, did some research and learned of the light-as-a-wave versus light-as-a-particle debate. I read about Einsteins discovery of the dual nature of light and learned the facts of a paradox（悖論）

54、that puzzles the worlds greatest thinkers to this day. Light behaves as both a particle and a wave, it is both at once. I realized I had gone through life accepting only half of the story as the whole truth.Each new year brought more new facts, and I formulated even more questions. I found myself in

55、 the library after school, trying to find my own answers to gain a more complete understanding of what I thought I already knew. I discovered that my parents and teachers are incredible tools in my quest for knowledge, but they are never the final word. Even textbooks can be challenged. I learned to

56、 question my sources, I learned to be a thinker. I once believed that everything I learned at home and at school was certain, but I have now discovered to reexamine when necessary.Questions are said to be the path to knowledge and truth, and I plan to continue questioning. How many things do we know

57、 for sure today that we will question in the future? At this moment, I know that our sun will burn for another five billion years, and I know nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole. This knowledge, however, may change in the next 20 yearsmaybe even in the next two. The one thing we can contr

58、ol now is our openness to discovery. Questions are the tools of open minds, and open minds are the key to intellectual advancement. （1）In the first paragraph, Aristotle is taken as an example to show that _.A.he is the greatest and respected philosopher of all timeB.huge influence of great thinkers

59、may block human thoughtC.advancements are made when thinkers question theoriesD.great thinkers often make mistakes and then correct them （2）What does the underlined word intimidate in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Frighten.B.Encourage.C.Strength.D.Persuade. （3）The author began to question his previous beliefs

60、because _.A.what he learned from textbooks before turned out to be wrongB.he was inspired by the different ideas from an exchange studentC.he was laughed at by other students for his unacceptable statementD.he was not satisfied with his life and desperate to achieve success （4）According to the passa
