It has been used by more than 100 million people. In December, the school announced it also would begin offering a special certificate, known as MITx, for people who complete certain online courses. Harvard has long offered courses to a wider population througha similar program.The MITx will serve as the foundation for the new learning platform.MIT President Susan Hockfield said more than 120,000 people signed up for the first MITx course. She said Harvard and MIT hope other universities will join them in offering courses on the open-source edX platform.“Fasten your seatbelts,” Hockfield said.Other universities, including Stanford, Yale and Carnegie-Mellon, have been experimenting with teaching to a global population online.The Harvard-MIT program will be monitored by a not-for-profit(非盈利的)organization based in Cambridge, to be owned equally by the two universities.Both MIT and Harvard have provided $30 million to start the program. They also plan to use the edX platform to research how students learn and which teaching methods and tools are most successful.（1）According to this text, edX is .A.a part of the free MIT OpenCourseWareB.a free computer program by MIT and HarvardC.a Harvard-MIT platform of free online coursesD.a free program online for universities worldwide（2）What is said about online education in the text?A.Universities have been trying online courses.B.About 2,000 online courses have been offered.C.Over 100 million people have finished courses online.D.Stanford and Yale together have courses similar to edX.（3）The underlined part in the text probably means“”.A.Get ready for the difficultiesB.Get ready for this educational changeC.Get prepared to complete the online coursesD.Get prepared to make materials for the edX courses（4）What can be said about MITx according to the text?A.It is first offered as part of the edX learning program.B.It is another free MIT-Harvard online learning program.C.It is a standard to recognize online learners’ achievement.D.It is a new kind of free online course of Harvard and MIT.B3.Easter(复活节)is still a great day for worship,candy in baskets and running around the yard finding eggs,but every year it gets quite a bit worse for bunnies.And no,not because the kids like to pull their ears.The culprit is climate change,and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US.Take the Lower Keys Marsh rabbit, for instance.An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys,this species of cottontail is a great swimmer—it lives on the islands!—but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising sea levels.According to the Center for Biological Diversity,an ocean level rise of only 0.6 meters will send these guys jumping to higher ground anda 0.9-meter rise would wipe out their habitat(栖息地)completely.The snowshoe hare,on the other hand,has a color issue.Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white in the wintertime to brown in the summer,each designed to give them better cover from predators(捕食者).As the number of days with snow decreases all across the country,however,more and more bunnies are being left in white fur during brown dirt days of both fall and spring,making them an easier mark for predators.Researchers know that the color change is controlled by the number of hours of sunlight,but whether the rabbit will be able to adapt quick enough to survive is a big question.The National Wildlife Federation has reported that hunters have noticed their numbers are already markedly down.American pikas or rock rabbits,a relative of rabbits and hares,might be the first of these species to go extinct due to climate change.About 7-8 inches long,pikas live high in the cool,damp mountains west of the Rocky Mountains.As global temperatures rise,they would naturally migrate(迁移)to higher ground—but they already occupy the mountaintops.They can’t go any higher.The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat heats up.The volcano rabbit has the same problem.These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico,and recent studies have shown that the lower range of theirhabitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters,but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher,so they are stuck in the middle. Scientists are concerned about their populations.Native to the US,pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West.They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world.Their habitats have been destroyed by development.Several populations,such as the Columbia Basin pygmy,almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs.Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators,but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter.（1）The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order to .A.show the importance of Easter DayB.introduce the issue about bunniesC.remind people of Easter traditionsD.discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies（2）The word “culprit”(Paragraph 2)is closest in meaning to .A.criminalB.judgeC.victimD.producer（3）According to the passage,some rabbits can now be easily discovered by predators because they .A.are exposed to more skillful huntersB.have moved to habitats with fewer plantsC.haven’t adapted themselves to climate changeD.can’t change their fur color into white in the fall and the spring（4）The problem faced by volcano rabbits and rock rabbits is that .A.both are affected by less snowB.both are affected by rising sea levelsC.neither can find enough foodD.neither can migrate to higher places（5）Which best describes the writer’s tone in the passage?A.Approving.B.Concerned.C.Enthusiastic.D.Doubtful.4.短文改错Will our parents check our homework? Not really. Since having already growing up, we can't act like little baby and rely on our parents all the time.When I was in Grade Three, my parents asked us to check my homework by myself.I don't know what to do in that time, so I cried. After that, I got used to correctmy own homework and became more independent.Check homework by ourselves is very good habit. It can not only help us find mistakes in exams more easy but also let our parents worry less about our studies.Because parents will leave us some day, so we should learn to do everything by ourselves.5.假定你是李华。

He likes driving his car.A. mustB. canC. mayD. need2,In 1909 an English newspaper offered ￡1,000 to the first man to fly across the English Channel(海峡) in an airplane. Today, modern aircrafts cross it in minutes. But at that time it still seemed a good distance. The race to win the money soon became a race between two men. Both were very colorful.One was Louis Bleriot. He owned a factory in France that made motor car lamps. He was already well known as a pilot because he had had accidents several times. Some people laughed at him. One man said, “He may not be the first to fly across the Channel but he will certainly be the first to die in an accident!”But Bleriot was really a good and brave pilot. He also had many good ideas about airplane design.The other man was Hubert Latham. He was half French and half English. He took up flying when his doctors told him he had only a year to live. “Oh, well,” he said, “if I’m going to die soon, I think I shall have a dangerous and interesting life now.”Latham was the first to try the flight across the Channel. Ten kilometersfrom the French coast, his plane had some trouble. It fell down into the water and began to sink under the water. A boat reached Latham just in time. He was sitting calmly on the wing and was coolly lighting a cigarette. Bleriot took off six days later. He flew into some very bad weather and very low cloud. He somehow got to the English side and landed in a farmer’s field. When he did so, a customs(海关) officer rushed up to his plane. Planes have changed since then, but customs officers have not, “Have you anything to declare?” The officer demanded.1.Bleriot was well known as a pilot because _____.A. he was unusually braveB. he was quite richC. he had many good ideas about airplane designD. he had had a few accidents2 .he flight for Bleriot was _____.A. a sad oneB. a dangerous oneC. his first oneD. an easy one3.Hubert Latham wanted to fly across the Channel because _____.A. he thought he could manage it easilyB. he wanted to be the first one to cross the ChannelC. he knew he only had a year to liveD. he had always been interested in flying4 .his text tells us that Latham _____.A. became a pilot on the doctor’s adviceB. was born in France and later became an English citizenC. managed to fly across the English ChannelD. was saved by a boat when his plane was sinking3,Tom and I had each a bedroom, and a third room ____ as our study.A. in commonB. in common withC. out of the commonD. by common4,-I don’t know what I _______ without the suitcase you lent me． -Glad to have been of some help to you．A. would have doneB. would doC. should have doneD. should do5,The first time she went swimming, she felt very _____.A. nervousB. shockedC. unpleasantD. surprised6, A proven method of effective textbook reading is the SQ3R method developed by Francis Robinson. The first step is to survey (the S step) the chapter by reading the title, introduction, section headings, summary and by studying any graphs, tables illustrations or charts. The purpose for this step is to get an overview of the chapter so that you will know before you read what it will be about. In the second step (the Q step), for each section you ask yourself questions such as “What do I already know about this topic?” and “What do I want to know?” In this step you alsotake the section heading and turn it into a question. This step gives you a purpose for reading the section. The third step (the first of the 3R’s) is to read to find the answer to your questions. Then at the end of each section, before going on to the next section, you recite (the second of the 3R’s) the answers to the questions that you formed in the question step. When you recite you should say the information you want to learn out loud in your own words. The fifth step is done after you have completed steps 2,3, and 4 for each section. You review (the last of the 3R's) the entire chapter. The review is done much as the survey was in the first step. As you review, hold a mental conversation with yourself as you recite the information you selected as important to learn. The mental conversation could take the form of asking and answering the questions formed from the headings or reading the summary, which lists the main ideas in the chapter, and trying to fill in the details for each main ideA．1. From the passage we can infer that the SQ3R method .A． turns out to be practicable B．leaves much to be desiredC． needs to be proven D． cannot be used by every reader 2. The SQ3R method consists of steps.A． three B． four C． five D． seven3. According to the passage, the first step helps the readers .A． read the first several paragraphs B．scan the whole chapterC． study the graphs D． get the theme of the chapter 4. Which of the following is the fourth step?A． To question yourself. B． To read for information.C． To recite your answers. D． To draw a conclusion.5. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A． In the last step, you should remember all the information.B． When you finish the last step, you will get both the main idea and the details.C． The mental conversation involves answering the questions asked by the author.D． While you are holding a mental conversation you select the important information.7,Jack waited only ___________ 7:30 because he had to be at work by 8:00.A．to B．for C．with D．until答案1, C2, DBCD3, A4, A5, A6, ACDCB 7, D。

Scientists are concerned about their populations.Native to the US,pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West.They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world.Their habitats have been destroyed by development.Several populations,such as the Columbia Basin pygmy,almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs.Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators,but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter.（1）The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order to .A.show the importance of Easter DayB.introduce the issue about bunniesC.remind people of Easter traditionsD.discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies（2）The word “culprit”(Paragraph 2)is closest in meaning to .A.criminalB.judgeC.victimD.producer（3）According to the passage,some rabbits can now be easily discovered by predators because they .A.are exposed to more skillful huntersB.have moved to habitats with fewer plantsC.haven’t adapted themselves to climate changeD.can’t change their fur color into white in the fall and the spring（4）The problem faced by volcano rabbits and rock rabbits is that .A.both are affected by less snowB.both are affected by rising sea levelsC.neither can find enough foodD.neither can migrate to higher places（5）Which best describes the writer’s tone in the passage?A.Approving.B.Concerned.C.Enthusiastic.D.Doubtful.4.短文改错Will our parents check our homework? Not really. Since having already growing up, we can't act like little baby and rely on our parents all the time.When I was in Grade Three, my parents asked us to check my homework by myself.I don't know what to do in that time, so I cried. After that, I got used to correctmy own homework and became more independent.Check homework by ourselves is very good habit. It can not only help us find mistakes in exams more easy but also let our parents worry less about our studies.Because parents will leave us some day, so we should learn to do everything by ourselves.5.假定你是李华。

If you have, you’ll know what an evergy - gun is, and a light - sword too. The gigantic space ship in Star Wars can destroy a whole planet in a second or two, and it does so. Fortunately, it isn’t our planet; it belongs to a distant system, far out in space.The great empty spaces of the universe are no problem in star Wars. The fighters know how to fold space over, like a sheet of paper, so that very distant stars are brought close together; they callit “hyperspace”. This means, of course, that their ships don’t have to creep along at the speed of light. If they did that, they would take years, even centuries, to reach the battlefield. Hyperspace allows them to travel as “supralight” speed and get there in a couple of hours. It’s good clean fun (健康无害的娱乐) though. We certainly don’t know all about physics yet, but we do have the work of Albert Einstein. He asked us to believe that nothing could travel faster than light through an empty space - but don’t let that miserable idea spoil the film for you, even though all our observations up to now have shown that Einstein was dead right - forget it. Sit back and watch those energy - shells blow up the hated enemy. The Star Wars princess is extremely beautiful. The more we “discover”, the more we must admire Einstein. He knew it all before us - by about 1910 in fact. We observe certain very high speed particles (微粒), and they behave exactly as Einstein predicted they would. We can give them a speed almost equal to light, but they never quite reach light speed. He predicted that a very fast - moving object, as it flashed by a stationary (静止的) observer, would seem to have much greater weight than usual. And that, too, was proved correct.So far as scientific theory or evidence is concerned, there is no such thing as hyperspace, no such speed as supralight. Space is as we know it, and light speed is the highest possible speed. “But,” say the story - writers, “that’s only true at present. Wedon’t know all about physics yet. Who knows - who knows if there isn’t another set of facts just waiting to be discovered; another universe perhaps, just round the corner?”Einstein seems to have been prepared for that too. In his theories he emphasized the word “relative”. Everything - speed, weight, time, etc. - is relative to something else. Nothing, by itself is real or absolute. So it there is another universe somewhere, we shall only know about it relative to ourselves. So far there’s no sign of it. But for the future, well, who knows?1．What is the purpose of science - fiction stories and films? A．They point out the way ahead, and scientists are grateful. B．They encourage us in our searching for the truth.C．They show us what the future universe will be like. D．They are written and made to entertain us.2．If you see Star Wars, what might spoil it for you, according to the passage?A．Einstien’s theories.B．The uncomfortable surroundings of the theatre.C．The ugly actress and actors.D．The rude audience.3．The increase in weight that Einstein predictedA．applies only to big things, like huge space - shipsB．is apparent only to the stationary observerC．is a real increaseD．remains even after the objective has stopped moving 4．Einstein’s theories emphasized .A．everything is relative to something elseB．the universe is infiniteC．light speed is the highest possible speedD．there is another universe somewhere5．Although Einstein did not observe the behavior of high - speed objects, .A．his theories predicted they travels at light speedB．his theories predicted them with great accuracyC．he knew they would be discoveredD．he predicted them in the year 19106,You could hardly imagine such a little boy like him the word like that.A sayB to sayC sayingD to have said7,He wrote a long letter to me, but I r_____ to him with a short note.答案1, A2, D3, A4, C5, DABAB6, C7, replied。
