13、urious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to justify his efforts to give his students a better future. Mr. Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a New Hampshire high school where learning is not something of books and tests and mechanical memorization, but pra

14、ctical. When did it become accepted wisdom that students should be able to name the 13th president of the United States but be utterly overwhelmed by a broken bike chain?

Working with y

16、our hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority. Schools in the family of vocational education “have that stereotype.that its for kids who cant make it academically,”he says. On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of Americas evolution. Manufacturing is not the economic engine that it on

17、ce was. The job security that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely evaporated. More education is the new principle. We want more for our kids, and rightfully so. But the headlong push into bachelors degrees for all and the subtle devaluing of anything less misses an impor

18、tant point: Thats not the only thing the American economy need. Yes, a bachelors degree opens more doors. But even now, 54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing. But only 44 percent of workers are adequately trained. In other word

19、s, at a time when the working class has turned the country on its political head, frustrated that the opportunity that once defined America is vanishing, one obvious solution is staring us in the face.

28、lso seeing a remarkable shift. In March, for the first time, wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the power generated in the US, reported the US Energy Information Administration. President Trump has underlined fossil fuels especially coalas the path to economic growth. In a re

29、cent speech in Iowa, he dismissed wind power as an unreliable energy source.

The advance is driven in part by vehicle manufacturers, who are placing big bets on battery-powered electric vehicles. Although electric cars are still a rarity on roads now, this massive invest

32、ment could change the picture rapidly in coming years. While theres a long way to go, the trend lines for renewables are spiking. The pace of change in energy sources appears to be speeding up perhaps just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does or doesn t

33、 do to promote alternative energy may mean less and less at a time of a global shift in thought. 26. The word “plummeting”(Line 3, Para. 2) is closest in meaning to .

Text 3 The power and ambition of the giants of the digital economy is astonishing-Amazon has just announced the purchase of the upmarket gro

38、cery chain Whole Foods for l3.5bn,but two years ago Facebook paid even more than that to acquire the WhatsApp messaging service, which doesnt have any physical product at all. What WhatsApp offered Facebook was an intricate and finely detailed web of its users friendships and social lives. Facebook

39、promised the European commission then that it would not link phone numbers to Facebook identities, but it broke the promise almost as soon as the deal went through.

41、ods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops it owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what. Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalances of power. But it is clumsy. For one thing, it is very slow compared to the pace of Change within the digital economy. By

42、the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in the marketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power. But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too. Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the u

43、sers of these services dont pay for them. The users of their Services are not their customers. That would be the people who buy advertising from them-and Facebook and Google, the two virtual giants, dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and entertainment companies. The

44、product theyre selling is data, and we, the users, convert our lives to date for the benefit of the digital giants. Just as some ants farm the bugs called aphids for the honeydew the produce when they feed, so Google farms us for the data that our digital lives yield. Ants keep predatory insects awa
