When Christina Zimmerman came back t wrk after having her baby, she struggled with depressin. She almst intended t quit her jb. But her schl’s daycare, just a few rms away, made all the difference. “I can be a teacher and a mm at the same time,” said Zimmerman, a furth-grade teacher in Idah. “Teaching is my dream, but I als want t be with my child. I didn’t want t
chse."
In states such as Idah and Texas, many schls nw prvide affrdable quality child care fr teachers. This helps teachers stay in their jbs, especially wmen wh ften leave wrk t care fr their children. It als helps schls keep mre gd teachers and gives yung children a safe place t grw.
In Idah, Principal Heather Yarbrugh started an n - campus daycare at her schl after remembering hw hard it was t drp ff her three - mnth - ld daughter Grace with a caregiver at a faraway daycare center each day. Yarbrugh said the feelings still haunt her, even 14 years later. She recalled that she cried every day fr weeks, but culdn't quit her jb as a teacher. Tday, many teachers at her schl use the n - campus daycare, and it helps them stay in their jbs.
"This is a great strategy by which yu can supprt bth children, families and then the schl's wrkfrce, and parties cncerned welcme the idea," said Mlly Hillier, an instructinal cach and mther f a child at the schl.
In Texas, the Richardsn schl district runs tw daycares that care fr babies as yung as six weeks ld. Teachers nly pay $350 per mnth, which is much less than regular daycares.
Schl - based child care nt nly helps teachers — it helps students, t. Happier teachers stay lnger and build better relatinships with kids. As ne teacher said, "If teachers feel supprted, they can give mre t their students."

C. Mthers' Lve and Its Influence n Children's Grwth
D. Schl Daycare Helps Teachers Stay in the Classrm

Suppse yu are a renter and want t change the clr f yur rental rm's walls, but yu dn't want t repaint them back t their riginal clr befre yu
mve ut. That's where a new type f paint cmes, which can simply be remved frm a wall and make things easier fr renters.
This new type f paint, called Unpaint, was created by the Clmbian cmpany Glasst Innvatin by mistake. Originally, the cmpany's research team was in search f a material t replace single - use plastics in the building industry. They wanted it t be made frm renewable surces t reduce the envirnmental ftprint f building materials. After years f hard wrk, they fund smething else: a liquid plant - based plymer (聚合物) with sme - truly unique physical qualities. They called it Glasstmmer. "Our jurney tward finding the right natural and renewable surces included lts f researches, teaming up with agricultural teams," Bter, a researcher f the cmpany, said, "Gd luck als played a rle."
Accrding t Bter, Unpaint can be applied like regular paint, using brushes and rllers. Hwever, instead f absrbing int the crners f walls like regular paint, Unpaint dries int a film that nly stays n the surface that it is being applied t. This means that when the time has cme, the paint can easily be remved frm the wall and then thrwn away.
Currently, Unpaint cmes in 5,000 clrs, and culd be a bn fr renters wh want t change the clr f their living space, but d nt want t have t repaint when they leave the huse. Beynd hme walls, Unpaint pens up pssibilities fr seasnal decratins. Fr thse wh lve t change their decratin fr hlidays, they can use Unpaint t turn their kid's rm int a seasnal wnderland. Walls, furniture, and even windws can be painted fr the seasn and effrtlessly returned t their riginal state.
52. Hw was Unpaint created?
A. By wrking with internatinal scientists.
B By studying traditinal painting methds.
C. By researching renewable building materials.
D. By imprving existing plant - based plymers.
53. What makes Unpaint different frm regular paint?
A. It absrbs int crners easily.B. It dries int a remvable film.
C. It needs special tls t apply.D. It features fewer clr chices.
54 What des the underlined wrd "bn" in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. prblem.B. deal.C. tpic.D. benefit.
55. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Unpaint, a great accidental creatinB. Glasstmmer, a magic reusable paint
C. Glasst Innvatin, a special cmpanyD. Bter, an inventr changing ur life

请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
Nwadays, whenever a custmer wants t rder fd, it's at their fingertips with take - ut apps like Meituan and Eleme. All a hungry persn has t d is t pen the app, scrll thrugh an endless number f restaurant chices, and have the fd delivered t their dr. That cnvenience and variety has made such apps hugely welcme in China, Japan, Nrth American cuntries and Eurpean cuntries, and
especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many users say fd delivery apps make their life much easier while thers think they're bad fr lcal businesses. What d yu think? Shuld take - ut apps be banned?
Yes—the cnvenience isn't wrth it
Many restaurants cmplain that take - ut apps are mre truble than they're wrth. Sme apps take a huge bite f the mney frm each sale—as much as 25%. Restaurants must either increase their prices r make less mney, in an industry where prfits are already slim. Als, they can't always keep up with the increasing number f rders they receive. That makes custmers unsatisfied with their service and prducts. Meanwhile, delivery wrkers say they're nt paid enugh fr a difficult, dangerus jb in which they have t speed thrugh busy streets. And what's mre, fd delivery causes very serius envirnmental prblems. Accrding t a reprt, nly plastic waste f all deliveries in China came t 1,600,000 tns in 2020. Can yu imagine what it's like in the whle wrld?
N—they ffer an imprtant service
Fd apps bring restaurants mre custmers. Many f them might nt knw abut their business therwise. Mre custmers means mre rders, s even if the apps charge a fee, the restaurant still wins. During the past few years when peple culdn't g ut t eat, the apps helped businesses stay aflat(维持下去) and created millins f restaurant and delivery jbs. Delivery peple wrk hard, but they can chse when and where t wrk. And fr busy peple, the apps prvide the cnvenience f getting all kinds f fd after a lng day at wrk r schl, allwing fr mre time with family and friends.
