阅读理解A (2017·南昌三模) 体裁：记叙文 话题：人物故事 难
度：★★☆☆☆
Since 1985, Johnny Jennings, 86, has been selling newspapers and
magazines to a recycling center with his son. By the time Jennings' only
child was 17, he stopped joining his father. Even though his son is grown
up now, Jennings hasn't slowed down his efforts. In fact, he has turned his
recycling money into something bigger.
Jennings visits local churches and businesses to collect paper, which
he brings to a recycling center for money. But instead of putting those
earnings in his own bank account, he sends every dollar to Georgia
Baptist Children's Homes & Family Ministries. Once a year, he'll give the
organization a check somewhere between $$10,000 and $$35,000. By 2016,
that tallied up to $$400,000.
These days, Jennings' recycling has turned into a community effort.
After he has made his own rounds recycling paper from businesses and
churches, he'll find more items waiting for him at home. Community
members drop off other recyclables at his house so he can sell them,
along with books, food, clothes, and other items to give away.
Recycling centers typically pay just one－half to three cents per
pound of paper, but Jennings' visits have added up big time. In 2016 alone,
he sold more than 400,000 pounds of paper and 51,000 aluminum cans
(铝罐), and collected more than 32,000 pennies. Over the course of 32
years he has recycled more than 9.8 million pounds of paper, saving all
estimated 79,000 trees in the process.
Jennings says he'll continue raising money for charity as long as his
health allows.

★★★★☆

Chinese education became a recent hit after New York Times' report
on Britain turning to Chinese textbooks to improve math scores.
It is reported that 36 math textbooks of the Shanghai Century
Publishing (Group) Co., Ltd will be introduced to Britain by
HarperCollins UK, a British publisher. The books will be used in UK
primary schools this September. The Guardian, a UK media, positively
commented on the amazing Chinese teaching approach of math.
Like China's economy, its education is also influencing and
changing the world, said Hu Xinhong, a Chinese middle school teacher.
Chinese teaching deserves spreading.
However, some experts suggest looking at this phenomenon
objectively.
It is still too early to say that teaching materials for Chinese primary
and middle schools have entered into the UK education system in a large
scale, just because Britain is importing teaching materials from China,
said Xiong Bingqi, vice president of the 21st Century Education Research

Institute in Beijing.
Chinese math textbooks going out shows advantages in domestic
math teaching, but it doesn't mean Chinese textbooks are superior to
western ones or math teaching in China doesn't need reform, said Chu
Chaohui, a researcher of National Institute of Education Sciences.
In fact, introducing Chinese textbooks to the UK this time is a fruit
of China－UK exchanges on education. Early in 2014, an education
delegation from the UK and 61 math teachers and researchers from
Shanghai exchanged visits, boosting further development of math
teaching in the UK.
Chinese and western education has its own advantages and
disadvantages. The best is to learn from each other's strong points and
offset weaknesses, the middle school teacher Hu believes.
