2016.6《英语(二)》作业题(一)
《英语(二)》作业题（一）Array（课程代码：00015）一、阅读判断Booking Online and Saving the EnvironmentWhen you are looking to book a holiday, it is unlikely that you will think about how green your booking decision is, but it is definitely something that should be taken into consideration. By “green” we are of course talking about the impact on the environment.When looking to book a holiday, you will probably find that you are faced with two main decisions. The first is to go into a travel agency, pick up a stack of brochures half the size of a person read through them and go back with just the one and book with the travel agents directly or over the phone. The second is to miss out the shops and brochures altogether and go on to the Internet.The Internet holds many advantages over the high street travel agents, the main one being convenience. You can go online to look at holidays at any time of the day, whether it is in that 20 minutes before work starts in the morning, half an hour at your desk at lunchtime or even at home on your laptop in front of the television at night. There are no time constrains to going online, while the travel agents are usually massively busy at times when people can actually go, i.e. Lunch hours or at the weekend. You could use the telephone but you wouldn’t be able to see the pictures or all the details of the holidays, so you would probably be sent a brochures anyway.There are websites on the Internet that make shopping for holiday deals much easier. These websites are known as price comparison websites. Icelolly, Travel Supermarket and Deal Checker are examples of some of the best known price comparison sites to look for cheap holiday deals, and they essentially search through lots of different tour operators so that you don’t have to. The results are then displayed on one page from which you can book, meaning that you don’t even need a lot of time to do this.The contrast with the travel agencies id that you probably have to take two trips, with brochures reading in between, and this is where the green side of things comes in. The piles and piles of brochures are definitely not green, and the amount of unnecessary paper used can’t be good for the environment. In the days of Internet, smartphone, tablets and computers, there is really no need for such a large amount of paper to be wasted. So not only will it save you time and effort to book online, it will do a little bit towards saving the environment too!1.Green booking decision should definitely be a consideration in booking your holiday. （A）A.TrueB.

He was interviewed by a newspaper reporter who asked him why he was so much more creative than the average person; what set him so far apart from others?He responded that it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old．He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip on the slippery bottle and it fell, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor－a veritable sea of milk!When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of yelling at him, giving him a lecture, or punishing him, she said, “Robert, What a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?”Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order．So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge, a towel, or a mop．Which do you prefer?” He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilt milk．His mother then said, “Robert, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands．Let's go out in the backyard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it.” The little boy learned that if he grasp the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful lesson!The renowned scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes．Instead, he learned that mistakes were just opportunities for learning something new, which is, after all, what scientific experiments are all about.Even if the experiment “doesn’t work ”, we usually learn something valuable from it. Wouldn’t it be great if all parents would respond the way Robert’s mother responded to him?11.This is a story about a famous researcher scientist who___D_____.A.looked smarter than the average personB.was an unordinary boy when he was youngC.became well-known after an interviewD.achieved great success in the medical field12.Why did he get the milk spilt all over the kitchen floor? AA.He failed to remove the bottle and it fellB.He was too young to carry the heavy bottleC.He had no confidence in taking the bottleD.He loosed his grip on the bottle deliberately13.How did his mother respond to his mistake? CA. She punished him by making him clean the kitchen.B. She shouted to stop him from doing anything.C. She allowed him to play in the milk first.D. She taught him how to carry the bottle immediately.14.The mother and the son went out in the backyard to ___D_____.A.find some water to clean the bottleB.find a way to carry the bottle effectivelyC.search for another bottle to hold the milkD.see how to fill the bottle without dropping it15.It is stated in the passage that mistake give chances to ____D________.A.know the truth clearlyB.learn something newC.do some experimentsD.teach a child a lesson三、填空题Identity Theft1.College students have a lot to worry about: tests, quizzes, homework, organizations, and jobs. One thing they might not think they should worry about is identity theft. Identity theft is actually a big problem on college campuses and students are easy targets. Knowing how to protect yourself against identity theft is the first thing you need to do for yourself.2.One of the major reasons why students are targets is because they are naive. Many students don't know or don’t realize the dangers of giving out their personal information unless they have already been through it or they are older. A majority of the time, students get sucked into getting free stuff just for a credit card. Students are one of the easiest targets for scammers (骗子). In order to protect yourself from having your identity stolen, you need to understand how scammers get your personal information.3.For students, being frugal is just about a must. One of the costs they may skimp on is paying for their own internet. Instead, they will log on to someone else's WiFi or an unsecured network. While this may cut down on costs while you are in college, there is a chance that someone will be able to get your personal information. These unsecured networks may be full of people who are simply sitting and waiting for you to log on to your bank account, shop online, apply for a job online, or apply for a credit card online. If you are going to shop online or do any of thepreviously mentioned activities, make sure you are on a secured network that has the proper privacy settings.4.Something that students may not think about is shredding (撕碎) their documents. It is very easy for anyone to have their identity stolen if they don’t shred important documents, bills, or even credit card offer saying you are pre-approved , so on and so forth, you need to shred it before throwing it away. Some people go through others’ trash and take the pre-approved cards. They can then use it to open a credit card under your name, stealing your identity.5.While you have many things to think about while in college, you should always think about the information you are giving out. Remember never to give out your bank account information or PIN (personal identification number), even to a friend. Also, watch put for scam like signing up for a credit card to get a free shirt; your identity may not be stolen right away, but that information could be used in the future. Shred any and all personal documentation before throwing it away. Moreover, when you do shred your documentation, make sure it can’t be put back together.Task 116.Paragragh1 ____B________ A. Being naive17.Paragragh 2_____A_______ B. Easy targets18.Paragragh 3______C______ C. Being frugal19.Paragragh 4_____E_______ D. Protecting information20.Paragragh 5_____D_______ E. Shredding documentsF. Seeking helpTask 221.What you need to do first for yourself is ___B__________.22.The dangers of releasing personal information are unknown to many students______C______.23.A good chance stands that your personal information will be stolen ____F_________.24.If a credit card offer is said to be pre-approved, you need to _____E_________.25.When you do shred your documentation, make sure ____A_________.A.it can’t be put back togetherB.Knowing how to protect yourself against identity theftC.Unless they have already been through it or they are olderD.because college students aren’t experiencedE.Shred it before throwing it awayF.While you log on to someone else’s WiFi or an unsecured network四、填句补文The Rise of Toilet TexterWe know where some of you are reading this:A recently released survey of the mobile phone habits of Americans, going where few other surveys care to go, has found that 75 percent of the ordinary people has used their mobile devices while on the toilet. (26)___F_____The survey of 1,000 people by the marketing agency 11 mark found that private contemplation has given way to toilet-time talking, texting, shopping, using apps, or just surfing the Web, by both sexes and most ages. (27)_____C______It gets weird. One-quarter of Americans say they will not go to the bathroom without their devices. While 63 percent have answered calls, 41 percent have called someone else while enthroned. Sixteen percent in the 28-to-35 group, the youngest sample surveyed, have made purchases there. A mere 8 percent of the oldest group has felt such retail urgency. Understandably, given their infrequent chances at privacy, people with children are more likely to talk on the phone than are the childless. (28)____E_____Hope you are sitting down for this: 20 percent of males have at one time joined a conference call from the toilet. Thirteen percent of American women have participated in meetings from the toilet. (29)___B______ Be grateful that location-based tracking is not yet so prevalent. Be worried about the rise of video on mobile devices. Ignore all background noises. Really.This is, in a sense, an evidence to our collective passion for communication and contact over all other needs, and a lesson in how quickly ideas of decorum(礼貌得体) adjust to the times.(30)____A____If someone is making or taking calls while on the toilet, they are most likely using a BlackBerry. Using an app or playing on Facebook most often is done on an iPhone. In general, Android owners are more likely than other phones to use them on the toilet.A.It is also a decent read on brand-related habits.B.That is every fifth male co-worker, and every eighth female colleague.C.Among those 65 and older, however, only 47 percent have used their mobile devices on the toilet.D.Married people are far more likely than the single to text.E.Single people are far more likely than the mated to text.F.Among those aged 28 to 35, the figure is 91 percent.五、填词补文The Price of Progress“We’ve become (31))___B___ of our own success,” Dr. Jackson said of the public health mission that cleared cities of congested slums. “By living far from where we work, we reduced crowding and improved the (32)___F__ of our air and water, which drove down rates of infectious disease.” But as people have moved farther from where they work, shop and socialize, the rates of chronic disease have (33)____H______.Public transportation has not kept pace with the (34)___D_______ of suburbs and exurbs (郊外). Nor are there enough sidewalks, nearby parks and safe places to walk, cycle or play outdoors in many, if not most, towns. Parents spend hours in cars getting to and from work; children are bused or driven to and from school; and those who can’t drive must depend on others to take them everywhere or risk becoming (35)___A____ isolated.In 1974, 66 percent of all children walked or biked to school. By 2000, that number had (36)____J_______ to 13 percent. “Children who grow up in suburbs can’t meet their life needs without getting a ride somewhere,” Dr. Jackson said. “The average teen in suburbia says it’s boring.”His new book, “De signing Healthy Communities,” a(n) (37) ___L____ piece to a coming public television series, says: “Whe n there is nearby nothing within walking distance to interesta young person and it is near-lethal to bicycle, he or she must give up autonomy --- a(n)(38)____I____ every creature must develop just as strength and endurance.” The book was written with Stacy Sinclair, director of education at the Media Policy Centre in Santa Monica, Calif.“We’ve engineered physical activity out of children’s lives,” Dr. Jackson said in a(n) (39)____K___. “Only a quarter of the children in California can pass a basis fitness test, andtwo in seven volunteers for the military can’t get in because they’re not in good enough physical condition.”The health consequences, he said, are (40)____E ___. Not only are Americans of all ages fatter than ever, but also growing numbers of children are developing diseases once seen onlyin adults: Type 2 diabetes (糖尿病), heart disease and fatty livers (脂肪肝).A.socially E. terrifying I. capacityB.victims F. quality J. droppedC.approach G. raised K. interviewD.expansion H. soared L. companion六、完形补文Crude OilAlthough crude oil is still vastly available in the earth’s crust, it is not a/an(41)__infinite_____(finite) resource. At some point it will eventually be(42)_exhausted____(exhaust).The demand for crude oil has increased by gigantic proportions. However,(43)_discoveries____(discovery) of new oil fields and investing in the oil industry have helped keep up with the (44)__increasing___ (increase) demand for oil. The crucial question is, how long will the oil resources last?(45)__Advanced__ (advance) technology has made drilling oil more (46) _effective__(effect) and efficient. With the aid of new method it is possible to draw almost 65% of the oil as opposed to the old methods. Better infrastructure and more (47) _investments__ (invest) have also made the drilling of oil wells more effective. Currently most (48)_transportion__(transport) is dependent on oil and many industries are born out of or lean on byproducts of petroleum. Although alternative sources of energy are now (49) __applied___ (apply), like solar and wind energy, it is still a long way to be completely (50) __independent__ (dependent) of crude oil.七、短文写作CongratulationsWe’re glad to announce that you’ve won the first place in the English Speech Contest.

《英语(二)》作业题（三）（课程代码：00015）一、阅读判断题Using Music to Change Your MoodEveryone knows that listening to music when feeling bad can provide a relief. Music can also reduce stress, make depression more bearable and help you relax.All the benefits of music can only be got if the listener enjoys the music he is listening to. If the listener dislikes the music or finds it boring, it will have a negative effect on him instead of a positive one.Now let's examine what most of us do when it comes to listening to music. We usually just listen to a play list and allow a program to randomly (任意的) select the songs we are going to listen to.This is where the problem lies. What if you liked the first song but found the second one boring? What if the third one was a motivating song while the fourth didn't suit your emotions? What do you think the result will be?What you'll have is an emotional mess! The first song will lift your mood a little. The second will make you a little bored. The third will motivate you and then the fourth will put you down. In the end you' 11 end up feeling worse than before.I strongly recommend dividing your play list into different small lists. For example, a list for relaxation, a list for motivation and so on. Another very important thing you must do is to get rid of all of the old music that you are bored of. Besides, don't listen to songs with negative words or messages.The music you listen to can delay your recovery from breakups (分手) by months and months!
