A study has showed that the brain makes decisions about 10 se conds before a person realizes it.Experts involved in the study said that looking at brain activity w hile making a decision,they could predict the choices the subjects would make, before they realized that they had made a decision. Lead researcher J ohn-Dylan Haynes, a neuroscientist (神经学家)at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain S ciences in Leipzig, said that the new findings called into questio ns for “consciousness”of decisions that people make, and might even challenge ideas as to how“free”people are to make a deci sion at a particular moment.“We think our decisions are conscious, but these data show tha t consciousness is just the tip of the iceberg,”Nature magazine quoted (引用) him as saying. Thinking the results“quite dramatic”, Frank T ong of Vanderbilt University in , , said that 10 seconds is“a lifetime”in terms of brain activity.During the study, the brains of 14 volunteers were imaged as th ey performed a decision-making task. The subjects had two buttons before them, each t o be operated by a different hand, which they could press when they felt the urge to. They were sim ultaneously (同时地)shown a stream of letters, which appeared on a screen at ha lf-second intervals (间隔). The volunteers had to remember which letter was showing when they decided to press their button.Upon analysis of the data, the researchers realized that the earl iest signal they could catch started seven seconds before the v olunteers reported having made their decision. Given the delay of a few seconds in the imaging, they reckoned (估计) that the brain activity could have begun about ten seconds b efore the conscious decision. The researchers showed that the signals were picked up from a region (区域)called the frontopolar cortex (脑额极皮层),which is located at the front of the brain, immediately behind the forehead.While writing about the observations made during the research i n his study report, Haynes said that the frontopolar cormight be the brain region where decisions are started. He also showed that the next step in the research would be to speed up the data analysis so as to enable his team to predict people’s c hoices as their brains would make them.1. The passage tells us that ______.A. we are aware of our whole process of decision-makingB. people don’t make decisions until they realize itC. experts have no way to tell what decision one will makeD. the decision-making process starts before it is made2. The underlined word “subjects”in Para. 2 probably refers to _ _____.A. the topic of the experts’ research paperB. the scientific subjects that the experts were studyingC. the things that experts don’t know clearlyD. the volunteers that the experts worked on for their research3. The underlined sentence“consciousness is just the tip of the i ceberg”in Para. 4 means that ______.A. our decision-making is consciousB. the data contains a lot of information besides consciousnessC. consciousness is the major part of the dataD. 10 seconds is“a lifetime”in terms of brain activity4. The final purpose of the research ______.A. is not stated clearly in the passageB. is not acknowledged by expertsC. is to show where decision-making startsD. is to analyze the data picked up5. The passage implies that ______.A. the research has been completedB. the research was conducted by two expertsC. the decision-making process lasts only about 10 secondsD. we may predict what decisions people will make in the future 【参考答案】25.DDBA【四川省成都市2014届高三英语摸底测试模拟试题(一)】Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds o utside of our own. Wetake delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societ ies beyond our everyday lives.This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scient ists have made to find out whether life of some kind exists on Mars, and the popularity of fantasy literature or movies like The L ord of the Rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other, to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy t hat we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already exi st all around us?Human beings, as biologists have suggested, possess an inbor n desire to connect with and understand other life forms, Howev er, people, especially in big cities, often lead rather isolated live s. In a study of British schoolchildren, it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from tele vision shows and video games than with common wildlife. With out modern technology, a small pond could be an amazing worl d filled with strange and beautiful plants, insects, birds, and ani mals. When we lack meaningful interaction with the world aroun d us, and sometimes even with our families and friends, we see k to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen.The world of make—believe is not necessarily bad. But when the world of fantasy be comes the only outlet for our sense of wonder, then we are reall y missing something. We are missing a connection with the livin g world. Other wonderful worlds exist all around us. But even more interesting is that if we look closely enough, we can see that these worlds, in a broad sense, are really part of our own.47.The popularity of The Lord of the Rings proves _____.A. the close connection between man and the fantasy worldB. the wonderful achievements of fantasy literatureC. the fine taste of moviegoers around the worldD. the general existence of the sense of curiosity48.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?A. People are far less familiar with the world of fantasy.B. The world around us could serve as a sound of wonder.C. The world of fantasy can be mirrored by a small and lively pond.D. Modern technology prevents us from developing our sense of wonder.49.If our sense of wonder relies totally on the world of make—believe, we will _____.A. fail to appreciate the joy in our livesB. be confused by the world of make—believeC. miss the chance to recognize the fantasy worldD. be trapped by other worlds existing all around us50.What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To show us the hidden beauty in our world.B. To warn us not to get lost in the fantasy world.C. To argue against the misuse of the sense of wonder.D. To discuss the influence of the world of make—believe.47. D 48.B49.A50.B[【上海市闵行区2014高考英语质量调研考试】Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For e ach of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choo se the one that fits best according to the information given in th e passage you have just read.(A)Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. Th ey are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women r iding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting re gularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fo x hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of pe ople opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is cruel, has r isen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without s ome kind of conflict between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly sab oteurs interfere (干涉) with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of t he fox’s smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy conflicts between hunters and saboteurs have become s o common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as th e pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to ap prove a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals wit h dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in .66. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes ________.A. for recreationB. to limit the fox populationC. in the interests of the farmersD. to show off their wealth67. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.B. It is a costly event that rarely occurs.C. The hunters have set rules to follow.D. The hunters have to go through strict training.68. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game ____ ____.A. by leaning upon violenceB. by taking legal actionC. by confusing the fox huntersD. by demonstrating on the scene69. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to ________.A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxesB. forbid hunting foxes with dogsC. stop hunting wild animals in the countrysideD. prevent large-scale fox hunting6 6.A67.C68.C69.BIntellectual property (IP) is a product of the mind that has comm ercial value.The concept dates back to 1623,when the first pat ent law to protect IP rights was passed.IP rights protect an arti st from having his/her creative ideas copied by another.For ex ample, if somebody generates an idea for a novel, that idea is p rotected by IP rights.If someone else wishes to represent the i dea or develop it further, he/she must consult the original artists , who will normally be rewarded financially for its use.Back in t he 17th century, IP rights were primarily carried out to protect n ewly developed manufacturing processes against stealing, but t oday, intellectual property rights, are also enjoyed by those who create music, art and literature.In recent years, IP rights have been the focus of a great deal of discussion because of a technology which looks set to weaken t hem altogether: the Internet.Many years ago, if you wanted a recording of a song, you would have to purchase it from a musi c store; if a novel, from a book store.In those days, IP rights w ere easily protected since it was very difficult to obtain intellectu al property without paying for it.However, a lot of IP, including songs, films, books and artwork, can be downloaded today free of charge using the Internet.This practice has now taken the w orld by storm, dramatically affecting the way in which we view I P rights.68.According to the writer, in the beginning, IP rights were mai nly of use to ____ __.A.those creating music, art and literatureB.novelistsC.engineers and inventorsD.those not receiving financial reward for their work 69.What do we know about the Internet according to the pass age?A.It makes IP rights harder to protect.B.It sells songs and films.C.It does not affect the way we understand IP rights.D.It prevents the production of artwork.70.According to Paragraph 2, what has “taken the world by st orm”?A.Intellectual property rights. B.The Internet.C.Free downloading. D.The large number of songs, fi lms and books.71.A possible title for this passage could be _____ _.A.A History of IP Rights B.Ways to Protect Your IP RightsC.The Present and the Future of IP D.IP Rights and O ur Attitudes参考答案 68.C 69.A 70.C 71.D阅读理解A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from hi s brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童)was walking around the shining car. "Is this your car, Paul?"he asked.Paul answered, "Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was surprised. "You mean your brother gave it to you a nd it didn't cost you anything. Boy, I wish..."He hesitated (犹豫). Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was goi ng to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surp rised Paul greatly."I wish," the boy went on, "that I could be a brother like that." Pa ul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again; "Would you like to take a ride in my car?" "Oh, yes, I'd love that." After a sho rt ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, "Paul, wo uld you mind driving in front of my house?"Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. H e wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?" the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him co ming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his littl e crippled ( 残疾 ) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car ."There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gav e it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And someday I'm going to give you one just like it. Then youcan see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I've been trying to tell you about."Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

新高三英语暑假作业第二套题目2015-07-05第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AOne of my neighbors used to have a beautiful tree in her front yard. Her dad had planted it for her when it was nothing more than a twig(嫩枝) and several years later it started to shoot towards the sky with amazing speed. Soon it blessed her with cooling shade in the summer and glorious, golden leaves in the fall.When the two-day snowstorm struck our town, heavy snow fell on the tree’s branches that were still full of leaves. The weight split that lovely tree down the middle. It was so sad seeing half of it laying on the ground after the storm. When I talked to my neighbor later, she said that the damage had been too much and that the entire tree would have to be cut down. Thankfully she had saved a few saplings(树苗) from it that she hoped to replant in the future.Still, it was a shock to drive by her house the other day and see nothing but a stump in her front yard. I missed that tree. I missed its beauty, its leaves shinning in the afternoon sun. I missed seeing its limbs reach towards the heavens. I thought that the stump would be a sad reminder of its loss for a long time to come. My wonderful neighbor, though, had another plan. When I drove by her home today I saw a tiny bird feeder sitting on that stump and a colorful songbird having its dinner. It was such an affirmation of life. It was such a joy to see. I could feel my heart smile.Life by its very nature is a mixed bag. It hands us both beauty and tragedy, love and loss, pleasure and pain. What we do with it, however, is up to us. We can let it split us in two, or we can use even its hardest times to make our souls stronger and our hearts more loving. We can spend it complaining or we can use it to help others.1. We know from the first paragraph that _____.A. the tree grew very slowly.B. the tree showed its beauty and benefits.C. the author’s neighbor was good at planting trees.D. the tree was so strong that it could bear any weight.2. The author’s neig hbor left a stump in her front yard to use it as_____.A. a good reminder.B. a seat after dinner.C. a place to feed birds.D. a beautiful sculpture.3. What does the author mainly want to show in the passage?A. Life has beauty and tragedy.B. Life consists of pain and suffering.C. Life should be pleasant rather than painful.D. Life is determined by our attitude towards it.BThe booking notes of the play The Age of Innocence:Price:$10BOOKINGThere are four easy ways to book seats for performance:--in personThe Box Office is open from Monday to Saturday,10 a.m.—8 p.m.--by telephoneRing 01324976 to reserve your tickets or to pay by credit card(Visa, MasterCard and Amex accepted)--by postSimply complete the booking form and return it to Global Theatre Box Office.--on lineComplete the on-line booking form at www.

The only people who don't have troubles are gathered in little neighborhoods. Most communities have at least one. We call them cemeteries(公墓). If you're breathing, you have difficulties. It's the way of life. And believe it or not, most of your problems may actually be good for you! Let me explain.Maybe you have heard the Great Barrier Reef, stretching some 1,800 miles from New Guinea to Australia. Tour guides regularly take visitors to view the reef.On one tour, a traveler asked the guide an interesting question. "I notice that the lagoon (泻湖) side of the reef looks pale and lifeless, while the ocean side is vibrant and colorful," the traveler observed. Why is this?The guide gave an interesting answer, "The coral around the lagoon side is in still water, with no challenge for its survival. It dies early. The coral on the ocean side is constantly being tested by wind, waves and storms. It has to fight for its survival every day. As it is challenged and tested, it changes and adapts. It grows healthy. It grows strong. And it reproduces."Then he added, “That's the way it is with every living organism.”That's how it is with people. Challenged and tested, we come alive! Like coral pounded (猛烈冲击)by the sea, we grow. Physical demands can cause us to grow stronger. Mental and emotional stress can produce tough-mindedness and resiliency(弹力,还原能力). Spiritual testing can produce strength of character and faithfulness. So, you have problems? No problem! Just tell yourself, "There I grow again!"Remember: A smooth sea never made a skilled mariner.8. Who has no problems according to the passage?A. The persons who are very famous.B. The persons who have much money.C. The persons who have been born.D. The persons who are living in the cemeteries.9. In the writer's opinion, ________.A. problems bring us much troubleB. problems have two sides, good or badC. we should try to stay away from any troubleD. the fewer things we do, the less trouble we'll meet10. The reason why lagoon side of the reef has no life is _______.A. it hasn't got any sunlightB. it has less energy than othersC. it never faces any challenge and testsD. it has no work to do every day11. After reading this passage, we should ________.A. regard any problem as challengeB. learn from the lagoon sideC. worry your problemD. enter into cemeteriesDWhen you put down your pens at the end of the college entrance exam, 12 hard years of study will have come to an end. Forget your studies for a while. It’s time to enjoy yourselves!There are many ways to celebrate this special month of graduation. You can have photos taken with your classmates and teachers, or dine out together and exchange gifts.High school students in Western countries such as the United States and Canada usually have a prom to mark their graduation. It’s to mark the time kids turn int o young men and women. After the prom(毕业舞会), teenagers either go to college or find a job. It means they are no longer as dependent on their parents as they were before.At the prom, boys usually dress in dinner jackets and bow ties, though many different types of formal clothes are worn. Traditionally, girls give boys matching boutonnieres (a small collection of flowers they pin to their jackets). Girls traditionally wear formal dresses, or dress to shock or be noticed, in shiny or brightly colored materials.Common prom activities include dining, dancing, the crowning (加冠) of a prom king and queen, and just talking to friends. In some cases, high school students collect funds for their class prom through the four years of their high school.High schools in or near large cities may rent ballrooms at expensive hotels or, to beunusual, on a pleasure cruise boat.But often costs are cut by simply using the school gym. Students make a lot of effort to decorate the gym to make the event special. The music played at the prom will be the most popular kinds, like rock and hip-hop.The students elect the Prom Queen. She is partnered with a Prom King who is elected similarly. These are great honors that the pair take very seriously. The two dance with each other to celebrate their election.Sometimes teachers and parents also go to the prom. But others like to go with friends, to whom they are soon going to be saying goodbye.If you like the idea of a prom, why don’t you and your classmates organize one for your graduation?12. Which of the following indicates that prom is very important to students?A. They take pictures at the prom.B. They wear formal clothes or special clothes.C. Music is played at the prom.D. Teachers and parents attend it.13. Which of the following is an economical way to hold the prom?A. Renting a ballroom.B. Taking a cruise boat.C. Holding it in the school gym.D. Wearing formal dresses.14. Why do some students attend the prom with their friends?A. They will part with their friends in a short time.B. They don’t like to be accomp anied by their parents.C. They don’t want to depend on their parents.D. They want to be elected by their friends as the Prom King or Queen.15. What is the writer’s purpose to write this passage?A. To tell an interesting experience of high school students.B. To tell how the western students spend the last days of high school.C. To introduce several ways of western students’ killing time.D. To tell how western high school students usually celebrate graduation.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Bu t though it was not far past the middle of September, the heavy clouds and strong north-easterly wind combined to make the day extremely cold; and th e journey seemed a very long one, so that it was nearly one o’clock before we reached the place of our destination. Yet when w e entered the gateway, my heart failed me, and I wished it were a mile or two farther off. For the first time in my life I must stand alone: there was no retreating now. I must enter that house, an d introduce myself among its strange people. But how was it to be done? True, I was near nineteen; but, thanks to the protectin g care of my mother and sister, I well knew that many a girl of fif teen, or under, was gifted with a more womanly address, and gr eater ease and self-possession, than I was. Yet, anyway. I would do very well, after all; and the children, of course, I should soon be at ease with th em."Be calm, be calm, whatever happens," I said within myself; and truly I was so fully occupied in steadying my nerves and keepin g down the rebellious beat of my heart that when I was admitte d into the hall and into the presence of Mrs. Bloomfield, I almost forgot to answer her polite greeting; and it afterwards struck m e that the little I did say was spoken in the tone of one half-dead or half-asleep.With due politeness, however, she showed me my bedroom, an d left me there to take a little refreshment for a little while and le d me into the dining-room. Some beefsteaks and potatoes were set before me; andwhile I dined upon these, she sat opposite, watching me (as I th ought) and trying to keep something like a conversation— consi sting chiefly of commonplace remarks. In fact, my attention was almost wholly absorbed in my dinner: not from appetite, but fro m the toughness of the beefsteaks, and the numbness of my ha nds.“I have had so little time to attend to their education myself, but I think they are clever children, and very willing to learn, especi ally the little boy; he is, I think, the flower of the flock— a genero us, noble-spirited boy, one to be led, but not driven, and remarkable for al ways speaking the truth.”“His sister Mary Ann will require watc hing,” continued she, “but she is a very good girl on the whole, t hough I wish her to be kept out of the nursery as much as pos sible, as she is now almost six years old, and might acquire bad habits from the nurses. I have ordered her bed to be placed in your room, and if you will be so kind as to look after her washin g and dressing, and take charge of her clothes, she needs to ha ve nothing further to do with the nursery maid.”I replied I was quite willing to do so; and at that moment the chil dren entered the room. Tom Bloomfield was a well-grown boy of seven. Mary was a tall girl, for her age of six, som ewhat dark like her mother. The second sister was Fanny, a very pretty little girl, looking little younger than Mary. The remainin g one was Harriet, a little broad, fat, merry, playful thing of scar cely two, whom I had more desire for than all the rest — but with her I had nothing to do.67. Which of the following statements best describes how the w riter felt when she entered Mrs. Bloomfield's home?A. She was nervous, dissatisfied with her manners but still confi dent.B. She was cold, hungry but eager to see all the children in the family.C. She was frightened, nervous and regretful about her decisio n.D. She was calm, confident and very happy with all the family.68. What job would the writer take in Mrs Bloomfield's home?A. A nursery maid.B. A house cleaner.C. A home cook.D. A family teacher.69. Which of the following was TRUE according to the passage ?A. The writer had some difficulty with her lunch because of the t ough food and the cold.B. The delicious food took the writer's attention away from Mrs. Bloomfield’s words.C. All the children were well educated before the writer came to the family.D. All the children in the family were looked after by Mrs Bloomf ield herself.70. From the passage, we can infer that ______.A. Mrs Bloomfield would treat the writer kindly and help her a lotB. the youngest girl Harriet would be the writer’s favorite studen tC. the writer would take on more responsibilities than she shoul dD. Tom Bloomfield would be the cleverest of all the children 【参考答案】2.67-70 ADAC【福建省漳州市2014高考英语第三次联考试题】BBecause of the financial crisis in the US and , college students are beginning to struggle to find ways to pay their tuition fees a nd accommodations.Recently, two major US student loan lenders—Citibank and JPMorgan Chase—announced they were leaving the student loan industry altogeth er. Because banks currently have a lack of credit(存款额), they are reluctant to offer students lowinterest loans(贷款) that need a severalyear wait for any return of interest.In the US, many undergraduates top up their financial needs wit h a private loan, although the majority can get governmentfund ed loans. In the 20052006 academic year, $17 billion in private student loans was used to finance higher education. The shortf all in private funding has yet to be covered and will hit many st udents hard.Across the Atlantic, students have been less troubled by the cri sis. Most undergraduates in the UK cover their university expen ses with governmentfunded loans and grants(助学金). Their biggest concern is a sudden steep increase in studen t rent.Most young professionals now rent houses, since 80 percent of UK mortgage schemes(住房抵押贷款计划) have disappeared—a direct result of the credit crisis. This has boosted the house re nt market.In large cities, students are paying almost 6.5 percent more in r ent than the previous year. Figures from the UK organization Accommodation for Student show students in big cities such as p aying an average weekly rent of $103.Yet, despite students' suffering, the number of this year’s univer sity applications is expected to grow. During economic slumps, people regard further education as a way to survive tough job m arkets.60. According to the passage, banks are unwilling to offer stude nts loans because ________.A. the students are poor and sometimes they can’t pay off the debtB. banks prefer lending the money to the young professionalsC. banks don’t have enough money left at the present timeD. they think college students are not studying hard61. The underlined phrase “top up” in Paragraph 3 probably me ans ________.A. put upB. make upC. fill upD. pick up62. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage ?A. college students have to pay more if they want to rent hou ses.B. More UK students want to further their study in college.C. It is not so easy for US students to loan money now.D. College students' tuition fees have risen greatly.63. It can be inferred that ________.A. there are no private student loan lenders in theB. loans for US college students will be increased next yearC. private funding falls a little because of higherinterest loans in theD. private loans play a very important role in financing US stu dents’ education64. The passage mainly tells us ________.A. college students in the US and are faced with their financi al crisisB. it is the duty of the governments to solve college students' f inancial crisisC. private student loan is a good way for college students to o vercome the difficultiesD. further education is a good way for college students to surv ive tough job markets【参考答案】60—64、CCDDA较难题目特训:人物故事类Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the Univer sity of California San Diego(UCSD)for two decades, has won th e 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category forher most recent book, “Versed”."I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even the National Book Crit ics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win,” said Armantrout."For a long time, my writing has been just below the media rada r, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th boo k, is really surprising.”Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degre e at UC Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Denise Le vertov, and her master’s in creative writing from .

作者用幽默诙谐的笔调向我们讲述了他购买的一台电视机所带来的一系列烦恼的故事。
21. C。
推理判断题。
根据“…newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid.”可知,作者是在一天后看到自己所购买的电视机降了75美元才感觉自己上当受骗上当了。

因此C项正确。
22. A。

由下一句的内容可知,我没有彻夜播放电影的频道,不然就无法睡觉了。
据此可以推断作者一直看到一天的节目结束为止。
故A项为正确答案。

事实细节题。
由短文最后“My trip to the repair shop cost me $62.”一句可知,作者把电视机送到维修店里请人修理。

事实细节题。
根据第三段“…people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.”可知,蓝色的用餐环境有助于减少食物摄入量。

How would you like to teach yourself, rather than have teach ers? According to the ’s Department of Education and Skills, stu dents will teach themselves in the schools of the future. This m eans that there will be no more problems such as finding enoug h teachers.Estelle Morris, the UK Education Secretary, opened the 2002 Education Technology Conference in recently. To start the con ference, she presented a video showing a computer—generated model of the school of tomorrow.Greater use of computer technology and classroom assistant s will help students developtheir own way of learning, Morris said. She added that this is a more exciting as well as a more interesting way of learning.At the same time, teachers will be “freed from their traditional role as the source of all knowledge”.Children of all abilities will “form the curriculum(课程)around their individual needs.” They will “learn in their own ti me, at their own speed and in their own environment”.At home or at school, they will follow their learning programm es by looking at online libraries and watching lessons by world-class teachers and subject experts.Instead of going on field trips, students will use virtual reality. If they don’t understand somethin g, they can ask other students—“take part in virtual communities with learners with similar need s”—or e-mail their teachers. They will hand in their work electronically to be “auto-marked”.The classroom of the future is fast becoming a reality.And the Department of Education will soon produce a guide t o help schools adapt buildings for new technology, Morris said. These ideas are based on the government’s plan to create an education system that provides students with a strong groundin g of knowledge and skills at primary school level. And provides the chance for students to develop their individual skills at seco ndary school level.36. According to the ’s Department of Education and Skills, the school of the future will ______.A. cause more problems such as being able to find enough teachersB. set no homework and no tests for studentsC. make good use of the computer technology and classroom a ssistantsD. enable students to learn by themselves without teachers提示:依据第一段最后一句排除A项;依据第七段最后一句排除B项;第七段说如果学生有问题,可向老师发e-mail,因而不可说without teachers,排除D项。

A阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.“J.C.”, he replied.She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens' victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didn't go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.Owens' Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living.I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”26. Owens got his other name “Jesse” when __________.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “J.C.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet27. In the Big Ten meet, Owens __________.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in setting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD. had to give up some events28. We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because __________.A. he was not of the right raceB. he was the son of a poor farmerC. he didn't shake hands with HitlerD. he didn't talk to the US president on the phone29. When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means that the medals __________.A. have been changed for money to help him live onB. have made him famous in the USC. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs30. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Jesse Owens, a Great American AthleteB. Golden Moment-- a Life-time StruggleC. Making a Living as a SportsmanD. How to Be a Successful Athlete?【参考答案】26-30. CBACA阅读理解阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
