One of the reasons I became a teacher was how much I loved the reading and writing
process, and how excited I was to help young children develop as readers and writers.
I had visions of a class full of busy writers, all with the same sense of excitement
I’ve always had about writing and sharing stories.
One day, I discovered the work of Vivian Paley, who developed a storytelling
curriculum for young children that involves writing down the contents of students’
drawings and having their classmates act out these stories. I was immediately drawn
to Paley’s focus on dramatization(编剧).
One morning, as my students gathered in our classroom for our writing lesson,
I told them that they could draw anything they’d like, imaginary or real that day.
They discussed with one another what they liked to draw and shared some of these
ideas out loud, which helped inspire those who weren’t ready with their own ideas.
For the next half-hour or so, I was busy writing down their stories. I observed some
of my most hesitant and unwilling students drawing with a sense of focus and purpose.
At the end of the session, we sat in a circle and I explained that we would act
out some of their stories. The“playwright(剧作家)”would choose classmates to be
the characters in the story, and I would tell the story. Then the first playwright
stood up to announce which char- acters she’d need. I watched as one student became
a rabbit, another became a fairy, and another became a rain bow cloud. When the play
was over, the actors and playwright bowed, and the class clapped for them. The next
playwright jumped to her feet, shouting, “My story is next!”

A. She hoped her students would inspire her writing.
B. She didn’t really expect to be a teacher when young.
C. She wanted to help her students fall in love with writing.
D. She became a teacher mainly because she loved children.
5. How did the author react when she read Vivian Paley’s work?
A. She decided to try drawing pictures herself.
B. She wanted to encourage her students to act.
C. She became interested in trying dramatization.
D. She wanted to let her students act out her stories.
6. What did the author encourage her students to do that morning?
A. Reveal their creative ideas through drawing.
B. Write down their stories in simple words.
C. Draw pictures of stories they’d read.
D. Observe others’ drawings.
7. What did the author probably realize in that session?

Dogs have a seemingly endless list of lovely behavior, and their curious head
tilt(歪头) at human voices is no exception. While conducting a study on dogs’ability
to learn words, scientists stumbled upon a potential link between dogs’ memory and
their head tilt.
In the study, researchers looked at the head tilt patterns of both“gifted”
and “typical” dogs. Owners ordered their dogs to fetch a specific toy from another
room. While most dogs struggled to memorize the name of just two toys, the seven
“gifted” dogs-all of which were border collies(牧羊犬)could remember at least ten
different toy names they'd been taught by researchers.
The team found that dogs that were particularly good at toy recall tilted their
heads more often when hearing a command than dogs which weren’t as skilled. When
they compared the dogs’ responses to a command from their owners, gifted dogs tilted
their heads 43 percent of the time, while typical dogs did so just 2 percent of the
time. It’s possible, scientists concluded, that the dogs’ head tilt may be a sign
of paying attention or even matching a name to a visual image in their heads.
Researchers also discovered that dogs usually tilted their heads in the same
direction regardless of where the owner was standing. The so-called “right-tilters
“ and “left-tilters” may be a matter of individual preference. “The next step
is to ask more questions to know what the head tilt really means,“says the researcher
Monique Udell. “ Can we use head tilting to predict word-learning ability, or
