Themain activity of debate is presenting one s opinion and suppmting it with evidence,such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the Discover Debate method.

19、He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how to give their opinkm,reasans and support. What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact （交流）with someone else s opinion, ra

20、ther than brush their opinion aside.Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, thejudges are the customem.

21、xt day, another company will come in and present their easeto the customer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins”Debate also strengthens critical thinking.

Youwill often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, risking-and at times losin

27、g-their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or fromthe traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois-all of which are chosen for search-and-

28、rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell-to better locate lostindividuals and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different

29、fields, including specialist search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties ofa search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confide

30、nt,easily trainable,adaptable, and have a high level of stamina （耐力 ） and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during down time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fitfor

31、duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted.

35、ips you make to the drug store per year. That s according to a newstudy that investigates whether there s any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of MichiganSchool of Nursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and healt

36、h. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the drug

37、gist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away.However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications, the study concludes.Ap

38、ple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they docontain some immune（免疫的） system-increasingvitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With ov

39、er 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studieshave also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2diabetes （二型糖尿?。?,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon （結腸 ）cancer.44.

Instead of making people unable to solve problems ortry new ideas-which is what fear does to us-research on school reform strongly suggeststhatpolicy-makersshouldencourage school leaders totake a morehumane approach. In thei

44、r study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools,Brykand Schneiderfoundthat enabling positive socialrelationshipsbetween the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing:psychological

45、 safety or safety tospeak ones mind,to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn t working,to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn t come easily to schools.

46、ty （正直 ）.
