22、 Almost everyone agrees on the hot dog basics: a long bread roll with a hot sausage inside it. And that’s what has led to a big question — is a hot dog a sandwich, or is it in a special category of its own?
“People have really strong opinions on both sides,” says Eric Mittenthal, president of the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council (NHDSC). In November, the council published an official announcement ruling that the hot dog is not a sandwich. It argues that the hot dog is too significant to be considered “just a sandwich.” The council admits that the hot dog was once the “Frankfurter sandwich,” but says that people no longer use that name. Today, no one would call a hot dog eating contest a sandwich eating contest.
But others disagree. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) includes a sausage inside a bread roll in its sandwich category. But it also calls the food a “sandwich type product”. In May, dictionary publisher Merriam Webster said that the hot dog is a sandwich. The Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, 11th Edition, defines a sandwich as “two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between” or “one slice of bread covered with food”. The announcement fueled a heated debate among hot dog fans. If hot dogs are sandwiches, where do you draw the line? Are burritos (玉米馅饼) sandwiches too?
This debate won’t stop Americans from eating piles of hot dogs this summer. During peak hot dog season — from Memorial Day to Labor Day — Americans will eat about 7 billion of them. That’s 818 hot dogs consumed every second. People love hot dogs so much that in 2015, a hot dog emoji was released so people can easily tweet or text an image of the famous food. This may come in handy soon, since July is National Hot Dog Month.
【1】Who thinks that the hot dog is special enough to be in a category of its own?
A.USDA. B.NHDSC.
C.The author. D.Merriam-Webster.
【2】What do some hot dog fans think of the definition of a sandwich in the mentioned dictionary?
A.It seems too wide. B.It is quite satisfactory.
C.It is obviously too narrow. D.It is difficult to understand.
【3】What does the underlined word “emoji” probably mean?
A.A small image used in electronic communications that symbolizes something.
B.A poster used to advertise hot dogs.
C.A toy given by a hot dog seller.
D.A facial expression posted on a letter as a stamp.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The history of hot dogs. B.Different kinds of sandwiches.
C.Do Americans really love hot dogs? D.Is a hot dog a sandwich?
23、Getting your kids organized for the new school year
Parents can begin good organization habits with preschool-age children, said Elana Spira, Ph.D., co-author of The Organized Child. She suggests asking them to do small, simple actions on a regular basis. Maybe they unpack their backpacks and bring their lunch bag to the kitchen, or take their shoes off at the door.【1】. Doing small things at a young age helps children exercise discipline(自律) and attention, all of which they’ll need later on.
When kids enter elementary school, they’re ready for more responsibility. This is the time to teach them about daily activities, and help them take control over theirs. 【2】. When do children do their homework? How long do they need? Where do they do it? Where does the homework go once it is done? Figure it out all before, and keep to the schedule as much as possible.
As children get older and their schedules get busier, they need their parents ‘ help in recognizing priorities(优先处理的事) and understanding what it takes to make it all work. As with younger children, the goal is to help them figure out what will work for them — and then help them keep to it.
【3】. Julie Morgenstern, organizing and productivity expert, suggests keeping a family calendar—paper or electronic—and keeping it regularly. Each family member should have a color belonged to their activities, so it’s easy to see who is doing what, when. “You can’t expect people to look at the calendar on their own. You should have a family sit together every day to look at it, and look at three days ahead,” Morgenstern said. “【4】.”
“Set the child up for success by changing gradually,” Spira advises. “【5】. Wait until the child has been consistently successful with one solution, before moving on to the next.”
A.These will help develop good habits
B.You don’t have to solve everything at once
C.It’s better to find any problems days before
D.Children should prepare everything in advance
E.It’s wise to create a firm schedule for homework
F.Calendars are important to help families stay organized
G.Organization gives the children the chance to focus on a task

In addition to her books about lions, Adamson also wrote two books about Pippa. a cheetah (猎豹) she took on in 1964. as well as numerous other books about her life in Africa. She was also an accomplished artist and many of her paintings are displayed in a museum in Nairobi, Kenya.
Joy and George separated in the 1970s, though they never divorced. On January 3, 1980, Joy was found murdered in a remote region of Kenyn. George was murdered on August 20, 1989, in an isolated region of Nairobi. This was an ironic (讽刺的) end to the lives of two who had lived in such seemingly dangerous circumstances with wild animals; that their deaths were at, the hands of men.
