Papa, as a son of a dirt-poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was

for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could lay his

hands on, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown. “There’s so

much to learn,” he’d say. “Though we are born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.” He was determined

that none of his children would be denied (拒绝) an education.

Thus, Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this

was crazy, it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request. And dinner time seemed perfect for

sharing what we had learned. We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant, it was

never taken lightly. Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment, always to the point.

Then came the moment--the time to share the day’s new learning.

Papa, at the head of the table, would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine, ready to listen.

“Felice,” he’d say, “tell me what you learned today.”

“I learned that the population of Nepal is ...”

Silence.

Papa was thinking about what was said, as if the salvation (拯救) of the world depended upon it. “The

population of Nepal. Hmm. We...” he’d say, “Get the map; let’s see where Nepal is.” And the whole family

went on a search for Nepal.

This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we

had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.

As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing

together, sharing experiences and participating in one another’s education. And by looking at us, listening

to us, respecting our input, affirming ( 肯定 ) our value, giving us a sense of dignity, Papa was

unquestionably our most influential teacher.

Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They

were imparting (传授) what Papa had known all along--the value of continual learning. His technique has

served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the

population of Nepal might prove useful.

24. What do we know from the first paragraph?

A. The author’s father was born in a worker’s family.

B. Those born stupid could not change their life.

C. The town elders wanted to learn about the world.

D. The poor could hardly afford school education.

25. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ________.

A. one new thing B. a request C. the news D. some comment

26. It can be learned from the passage that the author ________.

A. enjoyed talking about news B. knew very well about Nepal

C. felt regret about those wasted days D. appreciated his father’s educational technique

27. The author’s father can be best described as _______.

A. an educator expert at training future teachers

B. a parent insistent on his children’s education

C. a participant willing to share his knowledge

D. a teacher strict about everything his students did

“Birds” and “airports” are two words that, paired together, don’t normally paint the most harmonious

picture. So it really raises some eyebrows when China announces plans to build an airport that is for birds.

Described as the world’s first-ever bird airport, the proposed Lingang Bird Sanctuary （保护区）in

the northern coastal city of Tianjin is, of course, not an actual airport. Rather, it’s a wetland preserve
