答案解析

In the old days, when schools wanted to communicate with parents, they sent a letter home.  ( 23 ) Now in addition to email schools and parents can connect through social media like Twitter, Facebook and Skype. The Houston Independent School District in Texas has more than two hundred thousand students. The school district with help from Microsoft has established computer training centers for parents at five of its campuses. Other schools around the country are also increasing their digital services and not just in English. (24) Many schools provide information in Spanish and other languages. Free online translation sites can also help parents stay informed about their children's education. Some school systems also give parents online access to their children's grades and school work. Six hundred students attend Knapp Elementary School near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Principal Joe Mazza says almost one in five students came from Bangladesh and twelve percent from South Korea. Joe Mazza has been Knapp's principal since 2007. He says the most important way that the school gets to know parents is in face-to-face meetings. But under his guidance, Knapp has added social networking tools to meet the needs of the school community. Social media is providing them with many new and really free ways to connect with parents. The school uses resources like Twitter,e-newsletters and Skype. Teachers can talk to parents over Skype, if the parents cannot attend a conference in person.School-wide meetings for parents are also broadcast online. That's been a big piece to help other families that are unable to get here whether they don't have a car, or they don't have a babysitter. They can tune in, almost like their own
customized webinar. School staff members sometimes show videos of meetings in parents' homes and provide translation if needed. (25) Joe Mazza is a big supporter of electronic communication. But he says schools have to remember that not every parent may have a computer or Interact access. So paper copies are still needed. He also says teacher training programs should provide more training about how to involve parents in the school lives of their children.
How can schools get in touch with parents nowadays?

3 Questions are based on the following passage.Attention to detail is something everyone can and should do-especially in a tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human-resource expert notices this in the job application that comes across his desk every day. "It's(26) how many candidates cancel themselves," he says.
"Resumes arrive with faults. Some candidates don't(27)to spell the company's name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I(28) the candidate," Crossley concludes. "If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust them with a job?"
Can we pay too much attention to details? Absolutely. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. "To keep from losing the forest for the trees," says Charles Garfield, professor at the University of California, San Francisco, "we must(29 )ask ourselves how the details we're working on fit into the larger picture.

Often we believe what accounts for other's success is some special secret or a lucky break. But rarely is success so(35). Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.
