According to them, it canalso be quite 1) discouraging for those at the bottom of the class, but we think 2) otherwise.We believe it is definitely unfair to 3) classify our children just according to their 4) intellectual abilities. There are quite a lot of 5) disadvantages in doing so. Besides, it is against our educational purposes to develop the abilities of all our children to the full.However, in a mixed-ability class, there are various ways to help all children develop. Children often work in groups, which gives them the 6) opportunity to learn to share, to work together, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to make 7) decisions, to solve personal relationship problems as well as how to think and to communicate 8) effectively. Our children learn to do their best and we can give them extra encouragement to 9) attain the goal.

Researchers 1) anticipate that this year might bring another mass migration of animals to shore.Walruses 2) live on shellfish (贝类动物) and other animals they find by diving to the seafloor. Normally, the walruses, 3) particularly females with baby walruses, reston the floating sea ice during the summer. However, because of the global warming sea ice melts away and 4) vanishes over the relatively shallower waters where the walruses can feed. The 5) remaining ice stays only over water that is so deep that the walruses cannot dive down to the bottom for food. When this happens, the animals 6) stream back onto the land near shallower water.In recent years, researchers have found unusual 7) surges of mass migration have happened at an 8) incredible level, with walruses gathering in a(n) 9) immense number of more than 40,000. This can 10) strain the local ecosystem (生态系统) as the animals feed in a limited space, and many, generally the little walruses, get killed because it is too crowded. A recent study proved that the loss of sea ice was forcing more animals to swim longer distance, bringing danger to the life of their little ones.A) flow B) anticipate C) liveD) vanishesE) rushes F) immense G) incredible H) particularlyI) stream J) await K) strain L) finishesM) surges N) remaining O) believable参考答案:1) anticipate 2) live 3) particularly 4) vanishes 5) remaining 6) stream 7) surges 8) incredible 9) immense 10) strainIf you feel a shortage of energy, join our Health Club. Fatigue is common for people to 1) complain of to their doctors. In such cases, you should take a look at the causes for your tiredness and learn how you can get rid of it.Firstly, if you have to work hard 24 hours a day, seven days a week with high 2) efficiency, you will feel tired and bored. The 24/7 push to be productive can wear you out both physically and 3) emotionally. Your brain needs a break. You can have mini-breaks that will cheer you up and make your routine a little less routine.Secondly, if you sit staring at a screen for long periods of time you tend to blink(眨眼) less frequently and 4) strain your eyes. Your eyes need a break. Stand up once in a while to 5) stretch your legs and arms. Frequent breaks with long 6) strides to your nearby parks will keep your body active and reduce eyestrain.Finally, gaining as little as five pounds of weight can cause 7) fatigue.

Scientific activity is one of the main features of the modern world and, perhaps more than any other, makes our times 1) distinct from earlier centuries. Scientific research 2) involves different people doing different kinds of work. Men and women of all national backgrounds 3) participate in science and its applications. These people may focus on their efforts on 4) commitment to scientific knowledge either for theoretical development or for a particular practical purpose.As a social activity, science 5) reflects social values and viewpoints. For example, before the 20th century, women and people of color were not allowed in most of science by limiting their education and employment 6) opportunities. The 7)remarkable few who overcame (克服) those difficulties were unlikely to receive 8) due respect in the field of science.Meanwhile, the direction of scientific research is affected by influences within the culture of science itself, such as the opinion on what questions are most interesting or what methods are most likely to 9) yield good results. Scientists present their findings and theories at meetings or in scientific magazines. This 10) enables scientists to inform others about their work, to expose their ideas to criticism by other scientists, and to keep updated with scientific developments around the world.A) participate B) return C) enables D) involvesE) due F) applicable G) opportunities H) commitmentI) yield J) reflects K) enrich L) evolveM) remarkable N) distinct O) assignment参考答案:1) distinct 2) involves 3) participate 4) commitment 5) reflects 6) opportunities 7) remarkable 8) due 9) yield 10) enablesNormally we instinctively enter a state of disagreement whenever we come across undesirable things, and the unpleasant feeling of disagreement is often 1) overwhelming. This is our reaction (反应). Why not try non-reaction to 2) shield us from it? For instance, next time you feel too hot, instead of fanning yourself or turning on the air-conditioner, see if you can just sit and arouse the feeling of being warm in a positive way for a few minutes. With a bit of practice, you can put up with or even 3) ignore almost anything disagreeable to you that you might run into physically. Once you’re used to the non-reaction method with physical feelings, then you can 4) apply the same technique to less concrete things: emotions or situations. Instead of bringing any reaction against them, you can take and accept it with 5) grace and cool-headedness. Then, you will be free from the 6) awful emotional strain ofneeding to escape. When we have learned to 7) embrace undesirable feelings as if we had chosen them, the 8) negative circumstances will lose their effect over us. So remember, life becomes much more 9) agreeable when you stop disagreeing with it. Keep doing this and you’ll recognize the incredible 10) potential in non-reaction and feel comfortable with it.A) apply B) embrace C) cover D) accessibleE) overwhelming F) negative G) capacity H) potentialI) adopt J) shield K) ignore L) agreeableM) opposing N) awful O) grace参考答案:1) overwhelming 2) shield 3) ignore 4) apply 5) grace 6) awful 7) embrace 8) negative 9) agreeable 10) potentialA variety of conditions can affect the success or failure of negotiations (谈判). The following conditions make success in negotiations more likely.First, both parties must be willing to participate. If one party is unwilling for the negotiation, the 1) potential for reaching any agreement will certainly 2) decrease.Second, people must get ready to discuss. When there is not enough information 3) available, or a negotiation strategy unprepared, people may be 4) reluctant to begin the discussion.Third, both parties must have enough interests in common to 5) commit themselves to a shared decision-making discussion. For people to settle disagreement, they must have some means to 6) influence the attitudes and behavior from the other party. To 7) effect a change, they may provide needed information and seek the advice of experts for help.Finally, participants must have the 8) authority to make a decision. If not, negotiations will be limited to an information exchange between the parties. 9)Furthermore, both parties must have a willingness to 10) compromise. In other words, sometimes, to reach a satisfactory conclusion, it is necessary for the parties prepared to have less than 100 percent of needs or interests satisfied.A) effect B) affect C) commit D) decreaseE) decline F) influence G) compromiseH) concedeI) available J) applicable K) reluctant L) furthermoreM) necessity N) authority O) potential参考答案:1) potential 2) decrease 3) available 4) reluctant 5) commit 6) influence 7) effect 8) authority 9) Furthermore 10) compromiseStress sets off an alarm in the brain and the nervous system is aroused to sharpen the senses, quicken the pulse, deepen breathing and tense the muscles.Infrequent periods of stress pose little risk. But when stressful situations continue without being 1) resolved, the body is kept in a constantly active state, which increases the harm to biological systems. Finally, the body becomes 2) exhausted and its ability to repair and defend itself can be seriously 3) compromised. As the body’s self-defense power 4) erodes away, the risk of injury or disease increases.In the past 20 years, many studies have 5) indicated the relationship between job stress and a variety of illnesses. Mood and sleep 6) disturbances, upset stomach, and headache are examples of stress-related problems that are quick to develop and are commonly seen in these studies. These early 7) indications of job stress are usually easy to recognize. But the effects of job stress on chronic (慢性的) diseases are more difficult to 8) identify because chronic diseases take a long time to develop and can be influenced by many factors other than stress. Nevertheless, 9) evidence is rapidly increasing to suggest that stress plays a(n) 10) significant role in several types ofchronic health problems –especially cardiovascular (心血管的) disease, and psychological disorders.A) indications B) expressions C) disturbancesD) evidenceE) conflicted F) compromised G) resolved H) ensuredI) indicated J) erodes K) identify L) justifyM) involved N) exhausted O) significant参考答案:1) resolved 2) exhausted 3) compromised 4) erodes 5) indicated 6) disturbances 7) indications 8) identify 9) evidence 10) significantComputer use by college students is strongly encouraged, and is required in some courses. Some courses are now Internet-dependent; that is, the Internet has become a(n) 1) indispensable part of the course, from syllabuses (教学大纲) to homework. So, the use of the Internet on college campuses is 2) growing rapidly. There are so many 3) positive aspects of using this technology, for example, helping students feel more comfortable with their reading and learning.Although the Internet is an excellent tool for 4) gathering information and communicating with people, it has 5) disadvantages and puts those who make it the center of their lives at 6) risk. This can be bad for those who are unable to 7) balance their activities on the Internet with other parts of their lives. College students are particularly easy to be influenced in a(n) 8) negative way by the Internet. Students have their own psychological and developmental features (特点) and they have special expectations of the Internet, which may account for their 9) addiction to the Internet. It only takes a few clicks to move away from their 10) assignments to computer games or chatting with friends.Research in this area has just started, but more is needed to understand this problem fully and to find the most effective treatments.A) protective B) positive C) disadvantages D) arrangementsE) addiction F) risk G) advancing H) gatheringI) negative J) effective K) indispensable L) assignmentsM) addition N) balance O) growing参考答案:1) indispensable 2) growing 3) positive 4) gathering 5) disadvantages 6) risk 7) balance 8) negative 9) addiction 10) assignmentsThe Internet has changed the way of doing things. It has a stronger 1) impact than other electronic media on people and is the modern engine of progress; it presents a fresh 2) approach to online education.Personal computers and the Internet are rapidly 3) transforming the world into the Information Age. Already, the Internet is making large amounts of information 4) available to people at rapid speed. Teachers and students at college will have virtually immediate 5) access to vast amounts of educational information and a wide range of learning tools.The new technology provides students with skills that are 6) essential to success in modern society.

Choosing between self-interest and caring for the family life is one of the most 1) fundamental problems facing all of us. To 2) overcome the problems, modern societies in general and American society in 3) particular, have tried to give women and men different moral responsibilities.Since the rise of industrialization (工业化), women have been expected to 4) seek personal development in addition to caring for the family. In the 21st Century, changes in family life have 5) weakened the traditional family responsibilities between men and women, but the changes are still ongoing.Women and men today are still facing problems over how to 6) balance between “independent self” and obligation to the family. Women as wives or mothers must now obtain economic independence even though they continue to 7) bear the responsibility for the family. Men as husbands or fathers are no longer the only ones to support the family as before, but they face new 8) pressures to become more involved fathers and partners. The young women and men have to 9) adapt to this changing social environment. Nevertheless, they also have a brilliant chance to develop new 10) strategies to reshape family life.A) adopt B) adapt C) bear D) seekE) weigh F) balance G) overcome H) overwhelmI) weakened J) strategies K) systems L) pressuresM) fundamental N) introductoryO) particular参考答案:1) fundamental 2) overcome 3) particular 4) seek 5) weakened 6) balance 7) bear 8) pressures 9) adapt 10) strategiesWhat is altruism (利他主义,无私行为)? Altruism is 1) defined as “putting the needs of all others ahead of oneself.”Basically, it means being 2) extremely generous. The term was created in the 19th Century by sociologist Auguste Comte, who believed that individuals had a moral 3) obligation to serve the interest of others. The term now has become an important topic in the field of psychology and it 4) emphasizes being unselfish (无私的).Altruism is also the idea of caring about the 5) welfare of others. It is a virtue in many cultures although the 6) concept of “others” toward whom such care should be given can be different from culture to culture. For humans, altruism is the desire to provide something of 7) value to a person who could be anyone but the self. But something that 8) benefits other people is not necessarily altruistic. For example, if one helps out another person with the intention to 9) improve one’s own reputation (声望), this action would not be 10) regarded as altruistic, but rather as an expression of self-interest. In short, altruism means helping others without any personal reasons or purposes.A) concept B) image C) value D) obligationE) challenge F) welfare G) extremely H) infrequentlyI) defined J) described K) regarded L) emphasizesM) comforts N) benefits O) improve参考答案:1) defined 2) extremely 3) obligation 4) emphasizes 5) welfare 6) concept 7) value 8) benefits 9) improve 10) regardedIn some society it is the custom for parents to arrange marriages for their children.

They will even meet with the parents of the girl, and if both families are pleased with each other, a marriage 2) agreement will be made. It doesn’t 3) exaggerate to say that sometimes the two young people meet for the first time at their wedding.Most Americans don’t 4) applaud the idea of arranged marriages. However, American parents also put some 5) pressure on their children to influence their choices of marriage.

Marriages are usually arranged between people of 9) similar religious, educational and financial backgrounds. Despite what we see in the movies, in real life, the son of a bank president 10) rarely marries or even meets a coal miner’s (矿工) daughter. Americans may not understand arranged marriages, but marriages in the United States are arranged to some degree.A) usually B) financially C) commitment D) similarE) purchase F) chase G) frustrate H) inquireI) rarely J) pressure K) agreement L) sameM) applaud N) exaggerate O) determine参考答案:1) inquire 2) agreement 3) exaggerate 4) applaud 5) pressure 6) financially 7) purchase 8) determine 9) similar 10) rarelyFor many centuries there was no safety system against poverty and illness. The Industrial Age saw 1) extensive poverty amongst a rapidly expanding urban population.In 1941, William Beveridge, one of Britain’s 2) leading economists and social reformers, was asked to look at the problems of building a post-war Britain. His report, known as the “Beveridge Report”, was published in 1942, and it was based on two simple 3) elements : universality (普遍性) and comprehensiveness. In other words, the plan would be applied to everybody because Beveridge wanted to 4) ensure that people had the basic rights in life.The report covered the problems that were 5) threatening the society, for example, education and disease.

Meditation can be traced to the time when the Buddha (佛), monks (僧侣) 1) retreated into forests and mountains to think quietly about the truth of the Buddha’s Teaching. Meditation seems not only to help monks in 2) worshiping the Buddha, but can also benefit ordinary people.Meditation is a skill – a skill of conscious, continuous attention. You already have part of this skill – what keeps you stressed is your ability to pay 3) sustained attention to whatever is troubling you. Regular meditation practice can 4) relieve everyday stresses.

Eventually, meditation can improve your health, 7) enhance your creativity, and even slow down the aging 8) process.Many people who meditate regularly feel that its benefits go well beyond the 9) relief of stress.
