ASingle-sex schools are better than mixed schoolsMessage 1 — posted by Jane, AmsterdamI think mixed-sex schools are the only way for children to learn, because it's natural. In higher education and their working life, they will be mixed so it makes sense for them to be mixed at school. School should reflect the real world.Message 2 — posted by Hans, GermanyMy reaction to this is very clear. For me, single-sex schools are much better, and the statistics show that they get better exam results, particularly at secondary level. Anything which helps children pass exams must be a good thing.Message 3 — posted by Bill, USABoys and girls learn in very different ways. I feel that they should be educated separately so teachers can focus on their different needs. The way I see it is that if you have a zoo, you don't put the lions in with the zebras!Message 4 — posted by Martin, LondonMy view on this is that it doesn't really matter. What is important is the curriculum (课程), andkeeping students interested. I was a teacher and we had a lot of truancy (逃学) to deal with, and problems with students missing lessons because they found them boring. Never have a timetable with Maths as the first class on Monday morning!Message 5 — posted by Emily, SydneyI don't think there is any question that mixed schools are better. There is too much competition at single-sex schools, which often means that students don't make enough progress. I also think there is more bullying (欺凌) at single-sex schools, where children are picked on because of the increased competition. Single-sex schools lead to a ―dog eat dog‖ situation.21. What is Jane's attitude towards single-sex schools?A. Favorable.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Unconcerned.22. Both Hans and Bill hold that _____.A. teachers should meet students' different needsB. boys and girls should be taught separatelyC. schools should focus on students' exam resultsD. mixed schools are better than single-sex schools23. Martin stresses the importance of _____.A. exciting students' interest in coursesB. students' time awarenessC. training students to obey rulesD. school management24. Emily uses ―dog eat dog‖ to show _____.A. her support for single-sex schoolsB. students' determined effort to succeedC. the fierce competition in single-sex schoolsD. the better education results in single-sex schoolsBWork is usually not fun. And it's hard to find anyone who actually enjoys working in a cubicle（格子间）. But will work get more fun if we no longer have to sit in uncomfortable rolling chairs, or show up to the office at all?An increasing number of companies are allowing employees to work from home full-time, or show up just a few times a month, as long as they get their work done. That means employees canchoose their hours一if they're night owls, they can work at midnight and sleep in the day . It may seem a risky move, but the companies are saving themselves millions on office space.As more and more people started to work from home, some companies realized it didn't need so much office space, saving millions a year in real estate costs. But even then, there were rows upon rows of empty work space, since some people worked from home only sometimes, and still had desks. So some companies are now launching a program which would get rid of permanent desks for many workers. Instead, they're given a laptop and a rolling locker that they can use to store coffee mugs, pictures, and other belongings. When they want to work in the office, they can log onto a calendar and reserve a mobile desk. The new set-up saves money while getting more productivity out of workers. Surveys found that employees were less distracted and more productive working in the right environment. Kelly works from home most of the time now. She has gotten back around two hours of personal time now that she doesn't have to commute（交通通勤）. She lost 10 pounds since she can go to the gym more, and spends a little more time working, since she doesn't have to spend so much time in the car.A study by Stanford researchers published earlier this month affirms that allowing some employees to work from home makes them more productive. Employers can attract better employees if they're willing to allow them to work from home, said Brad Harrington, the executive director of the Boston College Center. And if more companies allow this kind of flexibility, there may be less traffic on the roads and less-crowded subways, saving office space and commuting time. They were also able to employ people who live in rural locations and otherwise would not have been able to work for the company.25.What is the purpose of paragraph one ?A.To complain that work is usually not funB.To tell the truth that it's hard to find anyone who actually enjoys working in a cubicleC.To ask a question whether work get more fun if we no longer sit in uncomfortable rollingchairs, or show up to the office at allD.To introduce the main topic of the passage26.Which one is not the benefit of working home ?A.Save the company a lot of moneyB.Workers are given a laptop and a rolling lockerC.Workers are more productiveD.They don’t have t o spend much time travelling between homes and companies27.What’s Brad Harrington’s attitude towards working at home ?A.ObjectiveB. supportiveC. indifferentD. Neutral28.Why are there so much empty work space?A. Because many people are working from homeB. Because people who work from home now and then stillhave desks in the office.C. Because companies allow employees to work from homefull-time.D. Because these people live in the rural areas and can’t go to work on time.CWe all know that getting too little sleep is bad. You feel tired, you may be irritable, and it can contribute to obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. But too much sleep? You don’t often hear people complaining about it.However, research appears to show that adults who usually sleep for less than six hours or more than eight, are at risk of dying earlier than those sleep for between six and eight hours.Prof Franco Cappuccio, professor at the University of Warwick, has analyzed 16 studies.His analysis showed that 12% more of the short sleepers had died when they were followed up, compared to the medium sleepers.However, 30% more of the long sleepers had died, compared to the medium sleepers.But can it really be true that getting nine hours’ sleep is worse for you than getting five?There are different ways of looking at this.Cappuccio’s own theory is that people who sleep for more than eight hours sometimes have an underlying health problem that is not yet showing in other symptoms.So, it’s not the long sleep that is causing the increased mortality risk, it’s the hidden illness.The typical adult today [in that poll] reports seven hours of sleep. And that actually seems to be the median sleep sleep. That suggests there’s something around seven hours of sleep that’s kind of natural for the brain.29.According to the passage, which of the following is right?A、People often complain about too much sleep.B、C hildren who sleep more than eight hours are at risk of dying earlier than those who sleepseven hours each night.C、P rof Franco Cappuccio has analyzed 16 people.D、The analysis shows that more than 30% of the long sleepers had died earlier than the mediumsleepers.30.According to paragraph one, if you get too little sleep, you willA、too fat ;high blood pressureB、too thin; high blood pressureC、low blood pressure; heart diseaseD、blood disease; heart disease31.According to Cappuccio, what contribute to the increased mortality risk?A、sleeping more than eight hours each dayB、sleeping less than six hours each dayC、the illness which cannot be seen nowD、an underlying health problem showing in other symptoms32.What is the main idea of the passage?A、sleeping too little can cause health problemsB、why sleeping too much may be unhealthyC、unhealthy sleeping problemsD、sleeping habitsDThere are two types of people in this world: those who regularly wash their office coffee cup. And those who only take it off their desk to cover up the coffee mark at the bottom with a fresh pour, driving away their shame with the reasoning that the heat must kill the bacteria or spine thing. Depending on which type of person you are, this will be either mildly annoying or more-than-mildly exciting. As Heidi Mitchell wrote in a recent Wall Street Journal column, it’s fine to never wash your cup, as long as you’re not sharing it with anybody else.There are two warnings to that statement, infectious-disease expert Jeffrey Strake, a professor at Baylor College of Medicine, told Mitchell; One, it only applies if you’re n ot sharing the cup with anybody else. And two , if you leave cream or sugar in your cup over the weekend, that can certainly cause mold(霉) to grow – in which case, wash it out.Otherwise, though, there’s not really much to worry about. ―If I went and cultu red the average unwashed coffee cup, of course I would find bacteria.‖ Starke said. ―But remember the vastmajority came from the person who used the cup.‖ Even if you drink from it while sick, it’s pretty hard to re-infect yourself with the same cup; most viruses don’t live long outside the body, which means that just letting your cup live in its own dirt may be a safer bet than the alternative; cleaning it with the disgusting sponge(海绵) in the office kitchen ―The sponge in the break room probably has the highest bacteria count of anything in the office.‖ Starke said if the idea of not washing horrifies you , just stick the sponge in the microwave before using. Otherwise, though, reel free to continue your lazy ways without guilt.33.What do we know from Stark’s words?A. The coffee cup in the office must be put in the microwave to clean.B. It’s easy to get infected if you often use the same unwashed cup.C. The coffee cup shouldn’t be shared in the office.D. It’s a good way to grow bacteria in an unwashed cup.34. What does the underlined part ―your lazy ways‖ refer to ?A.Leaving your coffee cup unwashed.B. Sticking the sponge in the microwaveC. Using Paper cups only in the officeD. Cleaning your coffee cup with sponge.35. Where does the passage probably come from?A. A travel brochure.B. A science magazine.C. An official statement.D. An entertainment program.第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
