Goodman believed that arts learning should be studied as a serious cognitive activity, but that "zero" had been firmly established about the field; hence, the project was given its name.Today, Project Zero is building on this research to help create communities of reflective, independent learners; to enhance deep understanding within and across disciplines; and to promote critical thinking. Project Zero's mission is to understand and enhance learning, thinking, and creativity in the arts, as well as humanistic and scientific disciplines, at the individual and institutional levels.Project Zero's research initiatives build on and contribute to detailed understandings of human cognitive development and the processes of learning in the arts and other disciplines. They place the learner at the center of the educational process, respecting the different ways in which an individual learns at various stages of life, as well as differences among individuals in the ways they perceive the world and express their ideas.正确答案:cognitive activity正确答案:hence正确答案:communities正确答案:within and across正确答案:critical正确答案:humanistic and scientific正确答案:research initiatives正确答案:respecting正确答案:at various stages正确答案:perceive the worldPart II Reading Comprehension ( 24 minutes )Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with several blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.••21. ______________________•正确答案:F22. ______________________•正确答案:C23. ______________________•正确答案:A24. ______________________•正确答案:O25. ______________________•正确答案:J26. ______________________•正确答案:D27. ______________________•正确答案:H28. ______________________•正确答案:M29. ______________________•正确答案:N30. ______________________•正确答案:BSection BDirections: There are several passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B),C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.•Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Let us suppose that you are in the position of a parent. Would you allow your children to read any book they wanted to without first checking its contents? Would you take your children to see any film without first finding out whether it is suitable for them? If your answer to these questions is "yes", then you are extremely permissive. If your answer is "no", then you are exercising your right as a parent to protect your children from what you consider to be undesirable influences. In other words, by acting as a censor yourself, you are admitting that there is a strong case for censorship.Now, of course, you will say that it is one thing to exercise censorship where children are concerned and quite another to do the same for adults. Children need protection and it is the parents' responsibility to provide it. But what about adults? Aren't they old enough to decide what is good for them? The answer is that many adults are, but don't make the mistake of thinking that all adults are like you. Censorship is for the good of society as a whole. Like the law, censorship contributes to the common good.Some people think that it is disgraceful that a censor should interfere with the works of art. Who is this person, they say, to ban this great book or cut that great film? No one can set himself up as a superior being. But we must remember two things. Firstly, where genuine works of art are concerned, modern censors are extremely liberal in their views ― often far more liberal than a large section of the public.Artistic merit is something which censors clearly recognize. And secondly, we must bear in mind that thegreat proportion of books, plays and films which come before the censor are very far from being "works of arts".When discussing censorship, we should not confine our attention to great masterpieces, but should consider the vast numbers of publications and films which make up the bulk of the entertainment industry. When censorship laws are relaxed, immoral people are given a license to produce virtually anything in the name of "art". There is an increasing tendency to equate artistic with "pornographic" (色情的). The vast market for pornography would rapidly be exploited. One of the great things that censorship does is to prevent certain people from making fat profits by corrupting the minds of others. To argue in favor of absolute freedom is to argue in favor of anarchy.Society would really be poorer if it deprived itself of the wise counsel and the restraining influence whicha censor provides.Permissive parents would ________.31.A) let their children read any books they like toB) not let their children see any films they like toC) not let their children read any books without first checking their contentsD) let their children see the films with their first checking•正确答案:AThe fact that parents check the contents of the book or the film for their children to read or see shows32.___________.A) the necessity of censorshipB) that many books and films are badC) that children need their parents to help them understand moreD) that the parents are permissive•正确答案:AWhich of the following statements is NOT true?33.A) Some adults can't tell right from wrong.B) Censorship is compared to the law because both of them perform good service to society as awhole.C) Censors pay attention only to genuine works of art.D) Censorship is necessary because many books, plays and films are far from being "works of art".•正确答案:CWhat does the word "corrupt" in Para.4 mean?34.A) Make morally bad.B) Hurt.C) Injure.D) Damage.•正确答案:AWhat would be the best title of this passage?35.A) Permissive Parents and Responsible ParentsB) Censorship and the LawC) Censors Value Artistic MeritsD) Censorship Performs Good Service to Society•正确答案:D•Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Personality is to a large extent inherent. A-type parents usually bring A-type offspring. But the environment must also have a profound effect if competition is important to the parents. It is likely to become a major factor in the lives of their children.One place where children soak up A characteristics is school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive institution. Too many schools adopt the "win at all costs" moral standard and measure their success by sporting achievements. The current passion for making children compete with their classmates or against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A-types seem in some way better than their B-type fellows. Being too keen to win can have dangerous consequences: remember that Pheidippides, the first marathon (马拉松) runner, dropped dead seconds after saying: "Rejoice, we conquer!"By far the worst form of competition in schools is the disproportionate emphasis on examinations. It is a rare school that allows pupils to concentrate on those things they do well. The merits of competition by examination are somewhat questionable, but competition in the certain knowledge of failure is positively harmful.Obviously, it is neither practical nor desirable that all A youngsters change into B's. The world needs A types, and schools have an important duty to try to fit a child's personality to his possible future employment. It is top management.If the preoccupation of schools with academic work was lessened, more time might be spent teaching children surer values. Perhaps selection for the caring professions, especially medicine, could be made less by good grades in chemistry and more by such considerations as sensitivity and sympathy. It is surlya mistake to choose our doctors exclusively from A-type stock. B's are important and should beencouraged.In Para.2, the word "institution" refers to _________.36.A) establishmentB) social customC) lawD) school•正确答案:DAccording to the passage, A-type individuals are in most cases _________.37.A) impatientB) considerateC) aggressiveD) agreeable•正确答案:CThe author strongly objects to the practice of examination at schools because _________.38.A) the pressure is too great on the studentsB) some students are bound to failC) failure rates are too highD) the results of examinations are doubtful•正确答案:BThe selection of medical professionals is currently based on ___________.39.A) candidates' sensitivityB) academic achievementsC) competitive spiritD) surer values•正确答案:BFrom the passage we can draw the conclusion that _________.40.A) the personality of a child is well established at birthB) family influence dominates the shaping of one's characteristicsC) the development of one's personality is due to multiple factorsD) B-types can find no place in a competitive society•正确答案:CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Choose the ONE that best completes the sentence.The mad man was put in the soft-padded cell ______ he injure himself.41.A) in case thatB) in case ofC) in caseD) lest that•正确答案:CThis train ticket is ________ for five days.42.A) validB) valuableC) serviceableD) functional•正确答案:AAmong her _________ were sewing, cooking, playing the piano and dancing.43.A) obligationB) fulfillmentC) assignmentD) accomplishments•正确答案:DElectrical energy _________ from the sun in a round-about way is the most widely used energy today.44.A) to comeB) comingC) comeD) having come•正确答案:B_________, glasses can correct most sight defects in healthy eyes.45.A) When well fittedB) When fitting wellC) When being well fittedD) If to be fitted•正确答案:AThis is a highly _____ reference library, covering most of the materials related to space science.46.A) extendedB) automaticC) specializedD) motivated•正确答案:CWith photos provided by the police, Mr. Johnson _____ the suspect by the scar on his face.47.A) discoveredB) identifiedC) detectedD) coincided•正确答案:BThe courses, if properly conducted, will _____ the minds of the students.48.A) encourageB) stimulateC) renewD) refresh•正确答案:BThere are coal, oil, and metal _______ buried deep in the ground.49.A) sourcesB) substancesC) resourcesD) properties•正确答案:CJessica thoroughly enjoyed the voyage and was _______ sea-sick.50.A) nothing butB) not in the leastC) at any rateD) by all accounts•正确答案:BEveryone in the city has _______ to the large collection of books on various subjects in the city's public51.library.A) alternativeB) procedureC) accessD) process•正确答案:CThe discussion ______ a wide range of subjects, including sociology, ecology and economics.52.A) dealtB) didC) coveredD) had•正确答案:CThey _____ the local government to approve plans for their reform program.53.A) recommendedB) informedC) excitedD) urged•正确答案:DI can't bear the noise of my brother's radio.
