This was stated by a news report broadcast recently.“When it comes to the American family, public attention tends to __31__ far more on what’s wrong than what’s right,” according to Dr. Kristin Anderson Moors and colleagues at the not-for-profit child support group Child Trends.They found strong evidence that __32__ families --- including those living in difficult situations --- have unique strengths that enable them to do a good job of raising their __33__ and supporting one another.In addition to TV shows, films, magazines and books delight in tales of battling brother and sisters, arguments between husbands and wives, __34__ childhoods and other problems. But do these represent the __35__ American family?In their study, Moore and her colleagues compared information from two government studies, which were based on interviews with more than 45,000 people __36__ age 18.Most families have a strong sense of __37__. A full 72% of teenagers said that they sat down for dinner with their __38__ “at least 5 days a week,: and four out of five kids said that they __39__ jobs around the house on a regular basis.

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 choose the best answer to each question based on the passage. Passage OneIf you ask technical companies what particular software or networking skills they’re looking for, you will not learn anything new.But ask what kinds of people tech companies are trying hardest to hire, and the answers become more complicated. Asked to state their No. 1 need, two-thirds of the 79 companies responding listed technical skills first, let by Web and database programming skills.But one-third included non-technical talents, either general business skills or personal qualities. For example Joe Samson of ITNet said, “We try to go after people who will work hard to develop successful products and then introduce and maintain them.”Other employers in the survey also looked beyond programming or network-building skills. For instance, StayWare, which makes fiber-optic network equipment, said it wants to hire people with “an ability to deal with change and to work closely with others” to get things done.41According to this article, the most important skill to technical companies is ______.a. knowledge of softwareb. business skillc.

By taking the shuttle, travelers have no parking fees, no long walks carrying luggage and no worry about driving in snow, rain or heavy traffic. The Shuttle picks up and delivers from four different Bloomington locations leaving the city nine times a day beginning at 4:40 a.m. and ending at 8:40 p.m. For the return trip, the shuttle leaves the airport nine times a day beginning at 6:40 a.m. and ending at 10:40 p.m., making sure you never have to wait long for a ride. Return shuttles also deliver to four convenient locations in town. Each passenger is allowed two suitcases and one carry-on piece of luggage, which is stored in a safe luggage compartment. Extra baggage and over-large objects are transported for an additional fee.Bloomington Shuttle’s drivers are all experienced professionals. Only drivers with a minimum of two years of commercial driving experience and proper state licensing are considered. Even with the experience, drivers receive an intensive training course to meet high expectations of safety, quality and service. By taking a shuttle, travelers can be free from fear of damage done to their cars left in remote airport parking lots and do not have to walk through dark, empty parking lots or garages.45.

They have a history of two years’ safe drivingb. they have taken a thorough training coursec. they have a driver’s license issued by the stated. they have experience in commercial drivingPassage ThreeNo species more clearly represents America’s changing view of wildlife than the gray wolf. From the first arrivals of settlers in the 1600s until only the last couple of decades, wolves were generally viewed as a dangerous threat in this country. Evidence of this is found in the laws passed in both the colonies and later the states, which provided for a cash payment for each wolf skin turned over to local officials. Not only were such laws a means of obtaining much needed money, but it also encouraged the use of the wolf’s fur as clothing. This double benefit to the hunters succeeded in effectively wiping out the wolf population in most regions of the country. By 1950, wolves had been done away with everywhere in the lower 48 states exceptin the wildest part of northern Minnesota. This was the result of efforts to kill all wolves.Most people now recognize the mistake of this persecution and understand the value of such vicious animals as the wolf within the wildlife community. The National Wildlife Federation has led the fight to get the government to pass a law protecting the wolf, in order to increase the population of the animal steadily. As a result, Congress has passed a law including this animal under the Endangered Species Act. Between 150 and 200 wolves are now wandering freely in Yellowstone National Park and the NWF is now working with both public and private organizations to make sure that wolves will be able to live in suitable habitats elsewhere in the country.49.According to the passage, most American wolves lived in 1950 ______a. in the lower 48 statesb. in northern Minnesotac. everywhere except Minnesotad. Yellowstone National Park50.In the second paragraph, “the mistake of this persecution” refers to ______.a. America’s changing view of wildlifeb. early settlers’ occupying of landc. America’s killing of wolvesd. people’s little knowledge of wildlife51.The major result of the NWF’s efforts for the wolves is ______.a)the preservation of wolves in Minnesotab)the steady increase of the wolf populationc)the fight with large vicious animalsd)the American view that wolves should be killed52.The word “habitats” in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaningto ______.a. groupsb. placesc. seasonsd. periodsPassage FourBefore the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season. Drying, smoking, and salting could preserve meat for a short time, but the availability of fresh meat, like that of fresh ilk, was very limited there ws no way to prevent food from going bad. But in 1810 a French inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of condensing and preserving milk. Canned goods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860’s, but supplies remained low because cans had to be made by hand, By 1880, however, inventors had built machines that made it possible to produce cans from tinplates in large numbers Suddenly all kinds of food could be preserved and bought at all times of the year.Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily diets. Growing city populations created a demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable farmers to raise more produce. Railroad refrigeration cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great distances and to preserve them for longer periods. Thus, by the 1890’s, people living in northern cities could enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at most, for up to six months of the year. In addition, increased use oficeboxes enabled families to store perishables. An easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870’s, and by 1900 the nation had more than two thousand commercial ice plants, most of which made home deliveries. The icebox became a fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized refrigerator takes its place in the 1920’s and 1930’s.53.This passage mainly discusses ______.a)causes of food going badb)commercial production of icec)inventions that led to changes in the American dietsd)population movements in the nineteenth century54.According to the author, in the 1920’s and 1930’s home deliveries of ice ______.a. decreased in numberb. were on an irregular schedulec, increased in cost d. occurred only in the summer55.All the following preservations are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT ______.a. dryingb. canningc. cold storaged. using chemicals56.The word “fixture” in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaningto ______.a. equipmentb. foodc. growerd. deliveryPartV TranslationDirection:Translate the following sentences into English:1.期末考试后,我们终于可以抽出时间来打扫宿舍了。

Research suggests that a person’s emotional intelligence (EQ) might be a greater predictor of succ ess than hi s or her intellectual intelligence (IQ), despite an assumption that people with high IQs will naturally accomplish more in life.The Marshmallow Test is mentioned in Emotional Intelligence, by Goleman. Ho w a child performs on this test at the age of 4 is a better predictor of his or her future success in life than his or her IQ.What researchers do is leave the child alone in a room with a marshmallow, telling them they can either eat the marshmallow immediately, or, if they can wait till the re searchers return, they can have 5 marshmallows.What this is testing is “impulse control” and the ability to “delay gratification”. It’s an example of “frustration tolerance”. Much of what we want later on in life requires resisting the immediate impulse, and also being able to “delay gratification”, i.e., whe n in college, you might have preferred to be off surfing in Hawaii, but, since you value d what a college education would do for you, you stuck with it. And it meant giving up some things you might have preferred doing at the time.Some of the children can’t resist, and take the marshmallow immediately. Others stick it out, and what do they doThey count their fingers and toes... get up and look out the window... find a book in t he room and read it... look up at the ceiling—they are very clever!Somewhere they developed this skill... could it have been their parentsMy mom used to tell me “When you’re angry, stop and count to ten”. She was tea ching me to stop and think before I spoke or took action. This is a tried-and-true way to emotional intelligence—stopping to think before you act or react.[共5题](1) Which of the following is not included in EQ [本题2分]D(A) the ability to understand one’s own e motions(B) the ability to understand other people’s emotions(C) the ability to act properly using those emotions(D) the ability to wait till the researchers return(2) The Marshmallow Test is to _____B_____. [本题2分](A) test one’s IQ(B) test one’s EQ(C) test one’s patience(D) test one’s temper(3) You stuck with a college education although you preferred to be off surfing in Ha waii. This example is to explain _____A____. [本题2分](A) both “impulse control” and the ability to “delay gratification”(B) “impulse control”(C) the ability to “delay gratification”(D) neither “impulse control” nor the ability to “delay gratification”(4) The example of the author and his mother shows _____C_____. [本题2分](A) the author can resist temptations(B) the author is very clever(C) some children develop their EQ through their parents’ teaching(D) when a person is angry, it is important to count from one to ten(5) Which of the following is true[本题2分]D(A) If a perso n’s IQ is high, he will be successful.(B) If a person’s EQ is high, he will be successful.(C) A person with high IQ is more likely to be successful.(D) A person with high EQ is more likely to be successful.42.IQ is not the determinin g factor for success,” said Janell Kilgore, a staff counselor i n the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program. IQ contributes about 20 percent to the fa ctors that determine life success, which leaves 80 percent to other forces, including E Q, she noted. Goleman writes that “the vast majority of one’s ultimate status in socie ty is determined by non-IQ factors, ranging from social class to luck”. Emotional intelli gence is one of those factors that can be improved or enhanced.According to Kilgore, understanding and practicing five key concepts can improve your emotional intelligence.Knowing one’s own emotionsRecognize and name emotions you feel; understand why you feel that way; and di stinguish between feelings and actions. “As a parent, you can begin now with your chi ldren, teaching them about their emotions. But first you have to know your own. You have to be able to tell yourself what you’re feeling,” Kilgore said.Recognizing emotions in othersT he ability to take another person’s perspective, Kilgore said, is a skill that effectiv e managers and supervisors possess. Emotionally intelligent individuals also are sensit ive to other people’s feelings and listen well. Kilgore led workshop participants throug h an exercise designed to illustrate these ideas. She showed two emotionally charged clips from the movies Parenthood and E.T., asking individuals to write down emotions they saw exhibited by the characters’ body language. Participants also wrote dow n t heir own feelings during each scene. The group’s list demonstrated the many emotio ns seen through the films’ characters, as well as the different ways people felt about t he same scenes.Managing emotionsAccept your feelings, but find a balance between over sensitivity or over expressio n and emotional suppression. Kilgore said her teenage daughters, when angry, have s ometimes stomped up the stairs in their home. While some people may find this beh avior unacceptable, Kilgore said she finds it healthy for them to express their emotion s rather than suppressing them.Handling relationshipsBeing perceptive, applying conflict management skills instead of ignoring conflict, and being considerate and cooperative are important in handling relationships with o thers. Kilgore also stresses that communication skills are essential to healthy relations hips.[共5题](1) According to researchers, which of the following is true [本题2分]C(A) IQ determines life success.(B) EQ determines life success.(C) IQ contributes a small part to life success.(D) EQ contributes a small part to life success.(2) The word “sensitive” in paragraph 4 line 2 means ______B____.

[本题2分](A) what EQ is(B) EQ is more important than IQ(C) how to improve your EQ(D) how to behave properly43.When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he kno ws what to do.For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situ ation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn't su re how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can't make things work out right, he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. A n intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special fe eling about life, and knows how he fits into it.If you look at children, you'll see great difference between what we call "bright" children and "not-bright" children. They are actually two different kinds of people, n ot just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright c hild really wants to find out about life - he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But, the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.If the driving force of intelligence in the twentieth century business has been IQ, t hen in accordance to growing evidence, in the twenty first century it will be EQ, and r elated and practical forms of practical and creative intelligence.[共5题](1) When we talk about intelligence, we mean _____D_____.

We forget that failure is part of the human condition and t hat every person has the right to fail.Most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children fr om the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother des cribes her child’s hastily making table as “Perfect!” even though it couldn’t stand on u neven legs. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.The trouble with failure-prevention methods is that they leave a child unequippe d for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everyt hing, no one can win all the time —and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child who’s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’t make the ho nor roll or the baseball team, feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick comfort prize or say, “It doesn’t matter” because it does. The young should be a llowed to experience disappointment — and be helped to master it.Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you can learn to use it. Step one is to ask “W hy did I fail” Control the natural impulse to blame someone else. Ask yourself what yo u di d wrong, how you can improve. Second, is the goal you’re to reach the right one T hink about this question. “If you do succeed in this, where will it get me” This may hel p you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyhow. The third thing to kee p in mind about failure is that it’s part of life. Learn to “live with yourself” even thoug h you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”[共5题](1) The main idea of this passage is ____C______.

Exercise SixSection 1. Compound DictationYo-Yo Ma is known for his blending of musical categories, and perhaps even inventing a few. He recently completed the tour playing music from Italy, Azarbaijan, Georgia, Austria and Armenia. The range of his musical interest is echoed in his belief in crossing borders, boundaries and even identity. Here is Yo-Yo Ma with his essay for This I Believe.I believe in the infinite variety of human expression.I grew up in three cultures: I was born in Paris, my parents were from China and I was brought up mostly in America. When I was young, this was very (1) confusing: everyone said that their culture was best, but I knew they couldn’t all be right.I felt that there was an expectation that I would choose to be Chinese or French or American. For many years I (2) bounced among the three, trying on each but never being wholly comfortable. I hoped I wouldn’t have to choose, but I didn’t know what that meant and how exactly to “not choose.”However, the process of trying on each culture taught me something. As I struggled to belong, I came to understand what made each one (3) unique. At that point, I realized that I didn’t need to choose one culture to the (4) exclusion of another, but instead I could choose from all three.The values I selected would become part of who I was, but no one culture needed to win. I could honor the cultural depth and (5) longevity of my Chinese heritage, while feeling just as passionate about the deep artistic traditions of the French and the American (6) commitment to opportunity and the future.So, rather than settling on any one of the cultures in which I grew up, I now choose to explore many more cultures and find elements to love in each. Every day I make an effort to go toward what I don’t understand. This (7) wandering leads to the accidental learning that continually shapes my life.As I work in music today, I try to (8) implement this idea —that the music I play, like me, doesn’t belong to only one culture. In recent years, I have explored many musical traditions.(9)Along the way, I have met musicians who share a belief in the creative power that exists at the intersection of cultures.(Please pause here for 30’’- 40’’)These musicians have generously become my guides to their traditions. Thanks to them and their music I have found new meaning in my own music making.(10) It is extraordinary the way people, music and cultures develop.The paths and experiences that guide them are unpredictable. (Please pause here for 30’’- 40’’) Shaped by our families, neighborhoods, cultures and countries, each of us ultimately goes through this process ofincorporating what we learn with who we are and who we seek to become. (11) As we struggle to find our individual voices, I believ e we must look beyond the voice we’ve been assigned, (Please pause here for 30’’- 40’’) and find our place among the tones and timbre of human expression.Section 2. Note-takingIntroduction: Although successful speeches are generally attributed to speakers who are confident, articulate, knowledgeable and able to deliver a speech with conviction,it is actually speech writers who write those moving speeches.Body:I.What it takes to be a good speechwriter:A.Qualifications listed on a job advertisement include having exceptional interpersonalskills, being detail-oriented, able to demonstrate a deep knowledge of their subject;Speechwriters also need to work closely with speakers and be able to relate to their style.B.The best speechwriters are believed to have an inherent talent/a natural creativeinstinct, for speechwriting is an art form.II.Dr. Max Atkinson outlined and illustrated a number of speechwriting techniques.A.Introducing contrast . A famous example is “Ask not what your country can do foryou but what you can do for your country”by former American President John FKennedy.ing three-part lists to add finality or to confirm a statement. Tony Blaire uses it inhis famous campaign slogans, such as “education, education, education”.C.Some other techniques include the use of imagery, anecdotes and alliteration. Conclusion: Try applying those techniques and find your potential of being a successful speechwriter.Script:SpeechwritingThe success of a speech is often attributed to the skill of the speaker, with merit being given to speakers who are confident, articulate, knowledgeable and able to deliver a speech with conviction.But often it is not the speakers who write these moving speeches, it is a speechwriter. And one industry in which this practise is common is that of politics. So what does it take to be a political speechwriter?Well according to a recent job advertisement from the US Embassy in Britain, a political speechwriter needs to have exceptional interpersonal skills, be detail oriented and able to demonstrate a deep knowledge of their subject. They must also work closely with speakers and be able to relate to their style.Some believe that the best speechwriters have an inherent talent, a natural creative instinct, and that speechwriting is an art form.So what about those of us who do not possess such genius? Can we still produce successful speeches?In an interview with the BBC, Dr Max Atkinson (a communications specialist) outlined a number of speechwriting techniques. He also illustrated how these techniques have been used in historic speeches.One such technique is introducing contrast. This is extremely useful when presenting a positive spin on a negative issue. One of the most famous examples of this can be seen in a speech given by former American President John F Kennedy: “Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country.”Another technique is the use of three-part lists. Dr Atkinson explains that this can be an excellent way of adding finality or confirming a statement. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair was a fan of this technique. One of his most famous campaign slogans was “education, education, education”.These techniques can be used like tools - they can be chosen from a toolbox and applied as necessary. A few other techniques you might find in a speechwriter’s toolbox might be the use of imagery, anecdotes and alliteration.So next time you have to prepare a speech or presentation, try applying one or more of these techniques and see if you have what it takes to be a winning speechwriter.Section 3. Short Answering Questions.Study: More Education Increases IQ ScoreStaying in school really can make you smarter. Really? A new study from Norway finds that students who remain in school longer than their counterparts have higher IQ scores.In the mid-1950s, the Norwegian government began requiring students to attend school until they were 16 years old, rather than allowing them to drop out at 14.Communities had until 1972 to phase in the compulsory education reform, which meant that, for nearly 20 years, youngsters in some municipalities went to school for seven years and others attended classes for at least nine years.That gave Taryn Ann Galloway a unique opportunity to see what impact the extra two years of education had on the intellectual development of students. Galloway, a researcher at the University of Oslo, explains that all young men in Norway are required to undergo a cognitive assessment, or IQ, test for the military draft at age 19.So, she and her colleagues were able to sift through data on 107,000 draft-age young men, correlating their years of education with their IQ scores obtained by the military.“The young men who were forced to stay in school for two years longer actually did have higher IQs,”Galloway says. “So, based on that, we were able to say that increasing compulsory schooling did actually have an effect on their cognitive abilities as measured at 19 years of age.”The average IQ score on the intelligence test is 100, with most of the population falling somewhere between 85 and 115 on the scale.According to Galloway, students who got a full two years of extra schooling showed an IQ gainof more than 7 points. Those with just one additional year of compulsory education during the phase in period gained approximately 3.7 IQ points.“So, that’s still quite large,” she says. “They’re going from about average to well above average if they were affected by reform.”For years, there’s been vigorous debate among psychologists about whether a person’s intelligence is the result of “smart” genes or a nurturi ng environment in infancy.Galloway’s results seem to support the nurturing side of the nature versus nurture argument.She suggests getting two extra years of academic practice during the middle teenage years may also help boost IQ scores.“I think it’s because you do learn general thinking skills at school and you are able to practice them, and you have lots of opportunity to practice them. So this is a two year extension of compulsory schooling for two years, so they were able to simply improve their skills.”Section 4. Listening and Translation1.Once upon a time in America, people receiving gifts had no idea what was wrapped in thepretty paper. Surprise was part of the delight. The givers chose presents with care and imagination, and hoped the recipients would treasure them.开心之余还有惊喜。

上海交通大学英语水平考指南
上海交通大学英语水平考试指南首先说明两点:1.水平考不同于4,6级,整体感觉相对来讲偏向雅思托福等考试,不重视语法,较重视语言能力;听力阅读写作比较偏向国内考试的是钓鱼和完形填空2.水平考的却比较难,是平时英语能力的一个体现,所以考试之前花大量时间在英语上是不合适的,但是不代表考试之前就不看英语,做出一定准备还是有用的。
学姐我英语也并非多厉害,最近比较缺人品= =,而且至少还是考过两次英语期末的人哈(85×2),大家就暂且一看就好了><!!先说说考试时候的场景具体悲剧在哪里听力,你们平时都听了,。
然后应该懂的,想想考试的时候还比较紧张,天冷手凉还不好写字= =,然后收音机。
还不一定很好用。
呵呵阅读很长。
很长。
单词量也不是很小钓鱼。
呃,大家都说不要在这上面花大量时间然后就在大家被听力阅读钓鱼什么的虐疯了的时候。
发现还有30分钟的时间写一篇250字的作文。
学长学姐们吐槽还是用道理的恩再说说大体上的准备考试之前(有3-4天考试时抽零碎时间看)首先是词汇。
把平时自己见过的单词看一下,巩固一下。
自己用过的单词,但不是特别熟悉的,尤其是能用在作文,重点看一下。
考前营造一个英语氛围,一两集美剧什么的也不错。
下面分题型看一下哈~~听力,下一点VOA,有时间自己听,听一句就想刚才的句子能不能复述出来(这个就集中攻破吧。
听力真心是最难的地方)这其实也没什么妙方,自己一点点找感觉才是最节约时间的= =考试之前做篇完型做篇阅读,以免高中最拿手的题型到时候都没感觉了,那不就悲剧了。
最关键的。
!!作文哈。
一定要把自己平时的作文写得好的重新读读,找个模板,可以读出声来,真的真的很重要!!不管你平时英语好不好,准没准备,期待与否你还是要去水平考的,所以壮士们,祝你们活着回来1.考试不要迟到,找个好点的地方坐下,调整好收音机,学姐大一的时候收音机各种不好使,听力听得这个凄惨呃。
耳机,最好用原装的那个,反正就40分钟,伤耳朵也不会很严重。
上海交通大学英语讲义Exercise One 听力原文及答案
Exercise OneSection pound Dictation.This is the VOA Special English Health Report.Rice is an important part of many people’s diets. (1)Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health in Massachusetts havereleased a report about rice. It shows that eating white rice increases the risk of Type Two diabetes. However, eating brown rice reduces the risk of the disease.The World Health Organization says more than two hundred twenty million people worldwide have diabetes. Type Two diabetes results when the body cannot (2) effectively use the sugar it produces.More than thirty-nine thousand men and one hundred fifty-seven thousand women took part in the study. They were asked about their diet and day-to-day activities, as well as any (3) pre-existing diseases. The study found that the people who ate five or more servings of white rice per week had a seventeen percent increased risk of (4)developing Type Two diabetes. But those who ate two or more servings of brown rice a week had an eleven percent reduced risk of getting the disease.Brown rice is the (5) grain in its natural form. White rice results after it has been refined. This involves (6) removing the outer cover, including the husk, bran and germ. Only the inner white kernel is left. White rice is often (7) enriched to replace some nutrients lost during the refining process.Qi Sun is the lead writer of the report. He says the outer parts of brown rice slow down the work of the body’s (8) digestive enzymes into starch. This means that the release of sugar into the bloodstream is slower after eating brown rice compared to white rice.A diet of foods that quickly release sugar into the bloodstream has been linked with a greater risk of Type two diabetes. (9) The exact reason for this is not known.(Please pause here for 30’’- 40’’)Doctor Sun says less refined grains have more nutritional value than refined grains. He says replacing white rice with whole grains like whole wheat or barley (10) could result in a thirty-six percent lower chance of developing Type Two diabetes. (Please pause here for 30’’- 40’’) He says people should replace white rice and other refined carbohydrates with whole grains whenever possible.However, brown rice does not last as long as white rice because of the oil-rich layer of bran. (11) This makes it less usable in poor communities. (Please pause here for 30’’- 40’’) The International Rice Research Institute is working to develop kinds of white rice whose starch is released more slowly.And, that’s the VOA Special EnglishHealth Report. I’m Steve Ember.Section 2. Note-takingKey:1. budget problems2. the weak economy3. increased prices for food and fuel4. property taxes and sales taxes5. were having budget problems6. receiving free or reduced price lunches at school7. finance public schools and to help young people attend collegeScript:Education Report - School, and Family, Budgets Under PressureFifty million public school children in America are starting a new school year. The number is a record high. Yet, at the same time, school systems in many areas are facing budget problems.The weak economy is not the only cause. Another reason has to do with increased prices for food and fuel. They mean higher costs for school meals and bus transportation.The United States will spend more than five hundred billion dollars on public education for the coming school year. The federal government helps pay, but the responsibility for education is mostly on state and local governments.Two major sources of money for public schools are property taxes and sales taxes. A slowdown in consumer spending, the engine of the economy, means fewer goods to tax. And the collapse of the housing market means less money to collect in property taxes.A report in July from the National Conference of State Legislatures said thirty-one of the fifty states were having budget problems. And the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities says school officials in at least eleven states have cut or proposed cuts in education.Florida, for example, has cut school aid by about two percent per student. State officials say tax collections are low and lottery sales have fallen by one hundred million dollars. Florida and many other states use money from sales of lottery tickets to help pay for education.Around the country, the economic slowdown has added to the numbers of children receiving free or reduced price lunches at school. In other words, many of the same economic problems that have hit school budgets have also hit family budgets.Each year, the education group Phi Delta Kappa and the Gallup organization gather opinions about American public schools. This year’s poll found support for increased use of federal taxes to finance public schools and to help young people attend college.People were also asked which presidential candidate they would vote for if they were voting on the basis of a desire to strengthen the public schools. Forty-six percent chose Democrat Barack Obama. Twenty-nine percent chose Republican John McCain.In the last two presidential elections, the poll found Americans equally split on which candidate would be more supportive of the schools.Section 3.Short Answering Questions.Foreign Student Series, Special English, VOAThis is the VOA Special English Education Report.This week, in part nine of our Foreign Student Series, we talk about getting a student visa to come to the United States.Just getting accepted to an American college or university does not guarantee that you will get a visa. And getting a visa just lets you arrive in the United States. It does not guarantee that an immigration officer will permit you to enter the country.Travel documents come from the Department of State. But (1) immigration is the responsibility of the Department of Homeland Security.The State Department has a Web site with all the rules for getting a visa. The address is . Unitedstatesvisas is all one word.(2) If you are requesting a visa for the first time, you will probably have to go to an American embassy or consulate. You will need to bring a government form sent to you by your American school that shows you have been accepted.(3) You will also need banking and tax records that show you have enough money to pay for your education.And be prepared to provide evidence that you will return to your home country after your studies end.All of this is important in satisfying the requirements to get a visa.
