A.Classroom participationB.Differences in American university educationC.Examination systempetition among studentsE.Honest policy in students’ school workF.Students’ responsibility for learning1.There is considerable variety in university classroom in the United States. Because of diverse teaching methods and non-standardized curricula, no two courses are the same. Undergraduate courses are considerable different from graduate courses. The classroom atmosphere in expensive, private universities may differ from that in community colleges which are free and open to everyone.2.Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student’s oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures.3.Many teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the student. If a longreading assignment is given, instructor expects students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or give an examination. (Courses are not designed merely for students to pass exams.) The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades.4.Ideally, the teacher-student relationship at universities is characterized by trust. The honor system, put forward by the teacher and the university demands that the student be honest in all areas of school work. Thus , cheating on tests, plagiarizing (抄袭) in written work, presenting other’s ideas as original, and turning in homework completed by someone else are all prohibited.5.Relationships between students in the classroom can be cooperative or competitive. International students should not hesitate to ask for help if it is needed. There are courses, however, where grades are calculated in relation to other student’s scores. Therefore, in classes where such a grading curve is used, students may be reluctant to share lecture notes or information for fear that their own grades will suffer.【参考答案】1-5 BAFED******************************************************结束第二节:任务型阅读(原创，文章改编自中国日报)下面文章中有5处（第61~65题）需要添加小标题。

任务型阅读阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，按要求完成任务。
(一)、Gone are the days when men and women couldn’t associate (交往) witheach other. When we are asked if boys and girls can associate with each other,most of us will say, “Yes, of course. Why not?” If we want to deal with theassociation between boys and girls properly, here are some “dos and don’ts” foryou to follow.1. Keep a normal and healthy state of mind(心态). Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very natural for boys and girls to contact each other and build up the friendship with the students of the other sex. Generally speaking, we should broaden the circle of the association. We should make as many friends as possible. We should have more friends of the other sex instead of one or two. We should contact the students in public instead of in secret.2. Contact students of the other sex warmly, generously and sincerely. Don’t be too nervous or too shy in contact with a person of the other sex. In that case it is very difficult for you to make a lot of friends, as no one likes a person who is too shy to say a word. If you are too shy a person, you can also find a way out. First , you can contact the students with the same interest with you. As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.3. Don’t fall into the ditch（泥潭）of early love. The boys and girls at adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling and full of imagination. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, boys and girls at middle school are too young and too tender to shoulder the heavy duty of love. Early love is a green apple th at can’t be eaten. An apple won’t taste sweet until it is fully ripe (成熟). Do keep out of early love.1. Should boys and girls contact each other in public or in secret?______________________________________________________________________2. What can you do if you are too shy in contact with a person of the other sex?______________________________________________________________________3. What are the boys and girls at adolescence easy to do in the writer’s opinion?______________________________________________________________________4. How many tips does the writer give us?______________________________________________________________________5. What’s the purpose of writing this passage?_____________________________________________________________________ （二）、Do you have a goal for life? What's it? Do you want to become a writer, singer or just become a rich person?A recent survey shows that in modern society, most people pick up practical goals, such as “earning money to buy a house and a car”, “to improve one's life quality”, “finding a good job”.Wang You worked in a small firm (商行) in Nanjing. The job was good and he didn't have to work for extra hours. However, he felt the work was not exciting at all and the life was boring. So he gave up his job and went to Beijing in February, 2008. When he arrived in Beijing, he set his new goal as finding a good job.Nowadays more and more people want to live a better life. This fact shows that the society is making progress and people's life goals have become more practical. One researcher says, “Everybody has his/her own life goal, which will be surely different from people to people. If one is poor, one's life goal will be to earn more money; if one doesn't have a diploma, studying hard to get a diploma will become his life goal; and if one doesn't have love, his life goal will be to lookfor it. But if one has no life goal, he will idle away (虚度) his lifetime.”根据短文内容，完成下列各题。

Teamwork is just as important in science as it is on the playing field or in the gym. Scientific investigations (调查) are almost always carried out by teams of people working together. Ideas are shared, experiments are designed, data are analyzed, and results are evaluated and shared with other investigators. Group work is necessary, and is usually more productive than working alone.Several times throughout the year you may be asked to work with one or more of your classmates. Whatever the task your group is assigned, a few rules need to be followed to ensure a productive and successful experience.What comes first is to keep an open mind, because everyone’s ideas deserve consideration and each group member can make his or her own contribution. Secondly, it makes a job easier to divide the group task among all group members. Choose a role on the team that is best suited to your particular strengths. Thirdly, always work together, take turns, and encourage each other by listening, clarifying, and trusting one another. Mutual support and trust often makes a great difference.Activities like investigations are most effective when done by small groups. Here are some more suggestions for effective team performance during these activities: Make sure each group member understands and agrees to the task given to him or her, and everyone knows exactly when , why and what to do; take turns doing various tasks during similar and repeated activities; be aware of where other group members are and what they are doing so as to ensure safety; be responsible for your own learning, though it is by no means unwise to compare your observations with those of other group members.When there is research to be done, divide the topic into several areas, and this can explore the issue in a very detailed way. You are encouraged to keep records of the sources used by each person, which helps you trace back to the origin of the problems that may happen unexpectedly. A format for exchanging information (e.g., photocopies of notes , oral discussion, etc.) is also important, for a well-chosen method not only strengthens what you present but also makes yourself easily understood. When the time comes to make a decision and take a position on an issue, allow for the contributions of each member of the group. Most important of all, it is always wise to make decisions by compromise and agreement.After you’ve completed a task with your team, make an evaluation of the team’s effectiveness —the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and challenges.Title Working TogetherTheme Effective performance needs highly cooperated (1) __________.General rules ●Keep an open mind to everyone’s (2)_________.●Divide the group task among group members. ●(3) __________ and trust each other.(4) _______ ● Understand and agree to the (5) __________ task of one’s own.● Take turns doing various tasks.● Show concern for others to ensure safety.● Take (6) __________ for one’s own learning.● Compare your own observations with those of others.Explore an issue ● Break the (7) ________ into several areas.● Keep records of the sources just in (8) _________.● (9) __________ your information with others via proper format.● Make all decisions by compromise and agreement.(10)________ effectiveness ● Analyze the strengths and weaknesses.● Find out the opportunities and challengesMaybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she w ants to. Here’s how:1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then deci de a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.2. Find a good place to study.Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.How to become a better studentGeneral method How to A dvantagePlan your time carefully Make a list Force you to realize(6)____ is happening to yourtimeMake a (1) ______Find a good place to studyFree of everything butstudy (2) ______You can (7) ______onthe subjectMake good use of your time in classListen to everything theteachers say Really listening in classmeans (8) ______ work later Taking (3) ______Study regularly Go over your notes Help you (9) _____itbetter , remember it longer(4) ______ new materialDevelop a good attitude about testsDon’t be (5) ______worriedRemember your new(10) ______New Year traditions all around the world“Happy New Year!” Everyone will greet each other with these words as they meet each other over the next couple of weeks. But it wasn’t always January 1 that marked the New Year.At least 4,000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians marked the changing of the year. In Egypt, the year started when the Nile River flooded, enriching farmers’ fields. This happened at the end of September.The Babylonians held a festival in the spring, on March 23, to kick off the next farming cycle. The Babylonian celebration lasted for 11 days.The date January 1 was picked by the Roman Emperor Julius Caesar as the change of the year when he established his own calendar in 46 BC. The month of January originates from the Roman god, Janus. He is pictured with two heads. One head looks forward and the other back. They represent a break between the old and new. The new calendar was in time with the sun and it has been used until the present day.In Vietnam, the New Year holiday happens in February. They buy fresh flowers and a peach blossom to put in their house, following the Vietnamese custom.Thailand has its specific New Year’s date; it’s different from the normal calendar. The Thai New Year is celebrated on April 13. On this day, Thai people play with water, throwing it on each other. It is intended to bring good luck during the New Year ahead.In China, the more favorable New Year is usually celebrated in February according to lunar calendar (阴历). On New Year’s Eve, all family members sit together at table, enjoying lots of auspicious foods such as dumplings, chicken to bring good luck.Title: New Year traditions all around the worldCountries (1) _________Origins （起源）or (2) ______(3) ______ or reasonsEgypt the end of Septemberthe Nile River flood make fields(4)______Babylon March 23 holding a (5) _______ kick off the nextfarming cycleRome January 1 Roman god, Janus (6) of a breakThailand April 13 (7)______ water ontoeach other’s bodybring good luckVietnam February buying fresh flowersand a peach blossom(8)______the customChina February (9)______ auspiciousfoodsbring good luck and(10)____ to everyone1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.A 10-year-old boy decided to learn judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a car accident.The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher. The boy was doing well, so he couldn’t understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move.“ Master,” the boy finally said, “shouldn’t I be learning more moves?”“ This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you’ll ever need to know,” the teacher replied.Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.Several months later, the teacher took the boy to his first tournament.Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the final.This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the judge called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the teacher appeared.“ No,” the teacher insisted, “Let him continue.”Soon after the match continued, his opponent made a mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy won the match and the tournament. He was the champion.On the way home, the boy and the teacher reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy got up the courage to ask what was really on his mind.“ Teacher, how did I win the tournament with only one move?”The teacher answered. “ First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab y our left arm.”Title: One’s weakness can become his (1)A boy decided to learn judo (2) he had lost left arm.After three months of training, the master taught him only one move.His first (3)First three matches He won.Final His opponent was more (4) built and had more (5) .At the (6) , the boy seemed to be overmatched.The judge (7) that the boy might get hurt and called a time-out.

Do you ever have class while floating down a river in a canoe? Do you ever throw your school lunch leftovers into a compost (混合肥料) bin when you are finished? They are all part of a regular school day at Barnard Environmental Studies Magnet School in New Haven, Connecticut. Known as a “green” school, Barnard attracts students from all over the region who are interested in environmental studies.“We do Earth Day all the year round,” said Marjorie Drucker, Barnard’s Magnet Resource teacher. With the school’s special classes, its 325 students study the environment all day long. “Being green means that everything in the building is designed with the environment in mind,”Drucker told Scholastic News. For example, the lights go off when people leave the room, and special windows provide “passive light”, cutting down on the need for electric lighting. When a window is open, the air-conditioning automatically turns off.Conserving（储蓄）energy is not all that students do to help the environment. While learning about the dying salmon population in the Connecticut rivers, students also do something to help out---- they raise more salmon. In the classrooms there are fish tanks containing salmon eggs. The eggs are kept in water at two degrees Celsius. After the eggs hatch, students observe the baby salmon through all the stages of development, and then release the adult salmon into Connecticut rivers.Composting is another part of taking care of the environment at Barnard Students deal with their lunches by throwing the remaining food into a compost bin in a greenhouse. The compost is used to help grow plants.At Barnard, almost everything has to do with the environment. Students sing songs about the environment; their artworks have something to do with the environment; even their math classes are focused on protecting the environment.Barnard offers chances that students can’t get in a regular school. The school’s goal is to teach children to be good environmental role models. They also learn to live in a different way. To attend the school, students have to apply and express their interest in protecting the environment. “Students come here because they care about the environment,” said Drucker.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.They learn to live in a different way.

A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion , the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail , we will not be able to develop new skills and grow. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we can not make the same ones. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted.Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not , we will learn something , and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. Furthermore, if we give up , we have no chance of attaining our goals any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.Topic: Never Give UpPossible meanings and the author’s opinions ♣ The words “ Never give up” can1 others or oneself and express one’s determination.♣ A person who wants to 2______ should have the quality .

Whenever I speak to Chinese students they always say, “ My spoken English s poor”. However, their spoken English doesn’t have to remain “poor”. I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if your attitude is positive. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.Second, they are afraid of making mistakes. Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking, because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be fluency not accuracy. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using tenses to get your message across. But to talk to someone in English, as quickly and well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word of tense, but it doesn’t matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you.The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. you have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than pro-active language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English, they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. If you have this pro-active outlook, then, you will see English opportunities wherever you go.If you don’t use your English beyond the classroom you will forget that English you know. Remember USE IT FOR IT! You can learn how to speak English better by speaking English more.Title Problems with Spoken EnglishReasons Solutions/ TipsLimit of 1._______ ★You have to 2.______ your vocabulary.★You should take a positive attitude towards 3.______English.4. ______ about making mistakes ★Shyness and5. _______ make it easy to make mistakes. ★More6._________ should be paid to fluency.7._________ ofattention while listening.All that learning is necessary for you to start speaking.8. ________reactive outlook★As language learners, most Chinese students are 9. _______ instead of being active.★You should take 10. ______ of all opportunities to improve your spoken English.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.It is an all too familiar story. A natural disaster strikes in a remote part of the world, causing destruction and suffering. Villages are flattened and people are forced into camps. It is now happening in China, after the earthquake of magnitude（里氏）8 that was centered on Wenchuan but shook the entire country.Actually, in the past centuries, there were hundreds of thousands of earthquakes in different parts of the world. In Sept. 1923, Tokyo and Yokohama were both destroyed by an earthquake and the fires that followed it. They had to be completely rebuilt. One of the most serious earthq uakes was in China’s Shanxi Province in 1556. It claimed almost one million people.We measure an earthquake’s strength on the Richter scale. The Richter scale was introduced in 1935 in Southern California in the USA. It measures earthquakes on a scale of one to ten. Any earthquake measuring five or more is usually serious.The earth’s crust(地壳) is made up of layers of rock called plates. As these plates move, they sometimes crash against each other, causing the crust to quake. In cities such as Tokyo, where small quakes happen quite often, many modern buildings are designed to be flexible so when the earth moves, they move with it.Earthquakes can also break up gas or oil pipes. This can cause fires to break out, which can do as much damage as the earthquake itself.Another effect of the earthquakes is tsunamis (海啸). These are huge waves created by earthquakes beneath the sea. They can be many meters high and cause great damage to costal towns and cities.China, Japan, Russia and the USA have the highest occurrence of earthquakes in the world.Knowing about (1) _______ Two seriousearthquakes in(2)__________An earthquake and the (3)__________ fires destroyedboth Tokyo and Yokohama in Sept. 1923.In 1556, a very serious earthquake (4) _________ inChin a’s Shanxi Province, killing large numbers ofpeople.The (5)_________ tomeasure anearthquake’sstrengthPeople can measure an earthquake’s strength on theRichter scale of one to ten, introduced in 1935 in theUSA.

But there are more reasons to develop the skill of listening than to win hearts or popularity contests.Listening heals hurts and builds bridges. It gives us the ability to understand and empathize, to view the world from our own point. It can bring us wisdom over and above mere intelligence. But most importantly, it allows us to give the people around us the gifts they crave (渴望) most—a sense of worth.As it turns out, there’s more to go od listening than just keeping quiet and allowing someone to speak. Effective listening is actually a combination of two key communication skills: listening and verifying (确认).Even when we’ve managed to hear a person’s entire message, we often interpret i t wrong—according to our own understanding, experience, or prejudice.As an effective listener, your goal is to hear and absorb what another has to say……in exactly the way they mean it to be understood. Only then can you respond properly.This is much easier read than done, so here are a few helpful tips:1.Give the speaker your full attention.Stop talking and remove all distractions. Turn off the TV, your phone, or computer. Watch your body language. The way you look at the speaker, or the way you stand or sit, makes a huge difference. The right listening body language communicates that we are listening openly and attentively, and puts the other person at ease.2.Be patient.Not everyone is a gifted speaker. Some people take longer to find the right word to make a point. Others are too worried to get their message across properly. If necessary, ask the speaker to explain further. It will help him / her speak more exactly and it will help you hear and understand better.3.Keep your emotions in check.If what someone is saying creates an emotional response in you, make an extra effort to listen carefully. When we’re angry, frightened or upset, we often miss key parts of what is being said.4.Hold your fire.Don’t jump to conclusions immediately. A good listener doesn’t react until comprehension is complete. If you respond in a way that makes the other person defensive, even if you “win” the argument, you may lose something far more valuable.5.Even if you think you understand.

江苏高中英语任务型阅读二5篇（附答案）
江苏高中英语任务型阅读5篇一．Ⅲ任务型阅读(2014·淮安调研)You say you want to be alone? Think again. Researchers have found that older people with fewer human contacts are more likely to die — even if they're happy in their isolation (孤立状态) — than people with richer social lives. The study adds to the debate over whether loneliness, social isolation, or some combination of the two leads to higher death rate. Social isolation is an objective condition in which people have little communication with others. Loneliness, on the other hand, is an emotional state felt by people who are dissatisfied with their social connections. To find out the effects of being alone versus (比对) just feeling lonely, Steptoe of University College London and his colleagues examined data from 6,500 Britons aged 50 and up who had filled out questionnaires evaluating their levels of loneliness. The most socially isolated subjects had a 26% greater risk of dying, even when sex, age, and other factors linked to survival were taken into account, the researchers report online today. They then made changes about their model to determine whether the connection to death was due to the fact that isolated people are often lonely. It wasn't. The The researchers researchers researchers then then then explored explored explored the the the connection connection connection between between between loneliness loneliness loneliness itself itself itself and and and death. death.

Once their impact had been explained, the scientists discovered that loneliness on its own didn't make people more vulnerable (脆弱的) to death. The researchers suspect that older people who have few social ties may not be getting the care they need. No one is urging them to eat right or take their medicine, and in a crisis no one is there to help. Other Other researchers researchers researchers praise praise praise the the the new new new work work work as as as rigorous rigorous rigorous ((严密的) ) and and and well-well-well-controlled. controlled. controlled. But But But they they they say say say it's it's it's far far far from from clear that social isolation, not loneliness, is always the real cause of increased death rate. Other studies, including an analysis of older Americans led by John Cacioppo, a psychology professor at the University University of of of Chicago Chicago Chicago in in in Illinois, Illinois, Illinois, have have have shown shown shown a a a link link link between between between loneliness loneliness loneliness and and and a a a higher higher higher death death death rate. rate. Cacioppo suspects that the disagreement between his study and the new research could lie with cultural differences between Steptoe's British subjects and Americans, and that Britons and Americans may define friends differently, too. Health psychologist Bert Uchino of the University of Utah praises the new study, but he says that researchers are still far from understanding how those two factors affect one another and other health-related behaviors.
