Alarming articles about food safety and inhumane raising practices (some in this magazine) put me off, and so did the plain fact that chicken had lost its 49 .The grainy and muscular yet succulent meat of my childhood had turned to wet cardboard. The specter of a real plague striking chickens in this country ——the H5N1 form of avain influenza, which in the past two years had led to the death or slaughter of 140 million birds in Asia-made me 50 recently into heirloom breeds of chicken and their chances of 51 if (or when, some say) avain flu is carried into North America.Good-tasting, carefully raised chickens have been nearly impossible to find unless you live near a farmer who subscribes to the pasturing methods long 52 by Joel Salatin, the chicken guru, or near a hobbyist who can bear to part with a beautiful bird like one of the Araucanas popularized by Martha Stewa rt (who even got a line of paints out her flock’s eggs). But now ,dedicated and small-scale farmers are raising strong and healthy chickens for meat, and it is just becoming 53 to chefs and home cooks hungry 54 chicken that tastes like chicken.Pasture-raised chickens eat grass and peck for bugs 55 standing in miserably cramped pens : they spend the daylight hours outdoors. Their meat tastes so good it’s hard to believe you’re eating chicken and not some special game bird. The dark meat is much darker, because the birds have actually exercised: all of the meat has sinew and taste. The fat is a deep gold rather than an anemic yellow. Real chicken could 56 be called “the other red meat.”49. A flavor B seasonlog C tenderness D odor50. A look up B look out C look after D look into51 . A sacrifice B survival C tolerance D retruval52.

While I too earvel at their beauty and enjoy eating their fish and stretching ay teadons peddling across them. I appreciate Adirondack lakes in another, more peculiar way . I see them as video cameras, permanently embedded in the landscape ,passively recording changes in vegetation and environment over thousands of years.Each spring , flower-dust storms roll throngh the air, depositing a yellow film of pollen on lake surface. Wind gusts and rivulets carry needies and seeds from nearby forests into the lakes. Much of the pollen and plant debris sinks and becomes entombed in the mud on the lake bottoms. As themud accumulates, each year’s crop of pollen and plant litter is preserved.By plunging a bollow tube into the mud of an Adirondack lake and bauling it up , I can obtain a record of the history of the surrounding forest over the past 10000 years .Because pollen can travel many miles on the wind ,it records the large-scale changes in forest plant fragments, however, provide a record of the trees growing near the lake. By examining the needless and seeds from the mud at six Adirondack lakers. I have been able to reconstruct forest changes at specific altitudes, ranging from 3100 to 4300 feet.Although vegetation patterns may appear to be permanently engraved on the Adirondack landscape, the lake-mud records lead to a more dynamic perception of the vegetation. Climate change has resulted in nearly continual changes in regional and local forest composition during the past 10000 years . As the climate changed, individual tree specties shifted up and down the mountain slopes. For instance, between 8000 and 4000 years ago, trees now found at lower elevations-while pine, hemlock, yellow birch-grew at altitudes as much as 1000 feet higher, indicating substantially warmer temperatures during that period. Cooling trends over the past 3000 years have led to the disappearance of these trees from higher elevations and increase in sprace pepolations.Daring the eleration shifts, forest soons(groups of associated species) morenet presrred; distinet soons omergod , peraieted for a while , and more them replaced by new patterns. The characteristic somes we say today , much as the mubmlpine forests dominated by red sprace and bmlsom fir , didn’t exist un til 3000 years ago. Before then , red sprace was rare thronghout the region , and foreats of hardwoods and bemlock bordered high-mlevation fir forests. The region experieaced different combinations of annual and seasonal temperatures, ralafail, and humidity, which gave rise to new combinations of tree species.Based on the records from lake sediments, global warming would not result in a simple upword shift in the current vegetation socks of the Adiroundacks. Putors climate changes and bitotic responses will probably be at least as comples as those of the past 10000 years. We can expect changes not only in average conditions but also in extremes, much as drocught , and in seasonal distribution of precipitmtion. Changes in the frequency of fires and blowdowns by strong winds could also have a head in resbaping the forests.Attempting to preserve characteristic Adirondack community types any be unduccnotfal.In the face of climate changes. Because of its size, however, the Adirudack Park Any play a key role in preserving regional biodiversity during the next century . The extensive tracts of undeveloped land connect diverse habitats, prowiding poutes for plant and animal species that will need to adjust their geographic location and form new communities as the climate changes. Elsewhere in the eaitern United States, the landscape has been fragmeeted, and those habitats that have been preserved are isolated, restrieting natural adjustment of communities to large-scale environment change.57.The main idea of this passage is that ________A. Adirondack lakes provide a record of man’s pollstion of the environmentB. pollen and plant litter have changed over yearsC. Adirondack lake mud provides a valuable record of the biatory of surrounding forests.D. undeveloped lakes have a natural attraction for vacationers every year58.What has led to the change in regional and local farest competition during the past 10000 years?A.

For centuries, people were too busy pursuing it 39 much time analyzing it. Now a pioneering band of researchers has finally bagged the elusive quarry or at least taken its measure. Using such sophisticated new tools 40 the five-item Life Satisfaction Scale and the seven-point Delighted-terrible Scale (On a scale of one to seven, how do you feel about your life?),social psychologists have plumbed the heart of happiness. And their answer to the age-old 41 is that it all depends.Happiness, that is, 42 what makes. you feel happy, which is why psyc1hologists often call it“subjective well-being.”But from studies of various age and population groups in the United States and abroad, they have reached some 44 at the top of the charts is not, as many might expect, success, youth, good looks or any of those 45 assets. The clear winner is relationship, close ones, followed by happy marriage. Supportive, intimate connections with other people seem 46 important.

She ran across the picturesque to the shores of Cayuga Lake, where she jumped into the water.So did many of her fellow seniors. But dozens of students decided to stay away, especially the relatively few newly arrived male students.Wells College, which since 1868 had educated only women, began accepting men this year in hopes of bolstering its dwindling enrollment. For many students and alumnae, it was a crushing decision. After the college announced last October that it would go coeducational, about half of the students protested and two filed a lawsuit, which they later dropped.The students—33 men and 383 women –campus late month Both sexes are now trying to navigate new social landscape. Mr. Phillips said“You can’t do guy stuff. Every time you want to sit and watch sports or a game, it turns into a movie.” The women were “some what nasty.” I could see the dirty looks in their eyes,” he said.“But I was not going to let that stop me from coming.”Wells was a place where women did not have to fuss over their appearance or fight to be taken seriously by their professors. They could enjoy the camaraderie of their campus sisters and their playful traditions. Besides jumping into the lake, the women dance around the maypole each May and kiss the feet of the statue of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, before exams.Ms. Alexander said,“People told us we wouldn’t notice a difference, but from the moment men arrived on campus not could notice a difference. Waking up early to put on makeup, and that’s odd,” she said.Henry Wells, a founder of Wells Fargo and a friend of Cornell’s benefactor, Ezra Cornell established this college, when women were not considered capable of higher learning.“Give her the opportunity,” he wrote.Henry Wells, a founder of Wells Fargo and a friend of Cornell’s benefactor, Ezra Cornell established this college, when were not considered capable of higher learning. “Give her the opportunity,” he wrote.The great-great-great-great granddaughter of Henry Wells, Stephanie Redmond, 18,of Washington State, said that earlier this year a Wells student had tracked her down and asked her to support the protest. But Ms. Redmond said the move the move to admit men had encouraged her to enroll at Wells this year as a freshman. She plans on a career in engineering, a male-dominated field, and said attending an all-women’s college might have put her at a disadvantage.49.The primary reason for the Wells College to accept men is that A .A. its enrollment rate is declineB. the campus is lack of vigor and vitalityC. it will face the destiny of being closed downD. all-women’s college might put a woman at a disadvantage50.A typical behavior for seniors to do that C .A. they jog along the picturesque campusB. they switch sports programs to a movieC. they celebrate their year by jumping into a lakeD. they swim in Cayuga Lake accompanied by friends51.The change after turning into a coed college is that B .A. dirty looks in women’s eyes have disappearedB. women get up early to make upC. women are waking up early to studyD. women dance with men around the maypole52.The attitude of the author is that D .A. she hares a tradition of all-women schoolsB. she calls on women in support the protestC. she dislikes the change and hopes to file a lawsuitD. she objectively describes the new and uneasy coeducation53.Which of the following statements is Not true? BA. The enrollment of male students caused controversy,B. The grandchildren of the college founder benefited most.C. The current president of the college was also its graduate.D. The founder hoped to give women opportunities of higher education.But what is teacher quality? How can one measure it reliably?An analysis is issued a sample of data a Texas school district. Experts argue convincingly that teacher effectiveness should be measured by students’gains on standardized tests: Mr. Smith is presumably a better teacher than Ms. Brown if his students consistently improve their test scores more than hers do.Though this approach is appealing, there are tricky issues. For example, what if Ms. Brown teaches in a school where students score so high there is little room for improvement?The authors try to correct for this problem, as well as other sorts of measurement issues, to generate a measurement of teacher effectiveness. The paper is primarily concerned with how this measure is related to other observable teacher characteristics.The first finding is that is a large variation in teacher effectiveness: some teachers consistently have a larger impact on their students’ achievement than others.Second, easily observable characteristics like having a master’s degree or a passing score on the teacher certification exam are not correlated with teacher effectiveness.Then what does matter? The most important single influence is experience: first-year teachers are much less effective than others. The second year is significantly better, and by the fourth year, most teachers hit their stride.It is not entirely clear whether this experience effect is learning by doing (the more you teach, the more effective you become) or survival of the fittest (those who are not good at teaching tend to drop out early).From my reading of the paper, both effects appear important and there is no simple answer. The data do suggest, however, that teacher effectiveness is pretty clear by the end of the second year, so the information to make an informed decision is available at that time.The authors also investigate the contentious issue of racial matching of students and teachers. Here they find strong evidence that minority teachers tend to be more effective with minority students. Again, it is unclear whether this is because of a role model effect (students respond better of their own race )or an empathy effect (teachers empathize better with students of their own race )or something else entirely.The authors also look at teacher mobility. There is some evidence that teachers who quit teaching or switch schools tend to be below average in effectiveness. This is consistent with the survival-of-the-fittest model.54.The schoolmaster could decide wisely whether to further employ the teacher by the end of theB .A. the first yearB. the second yearC. the third yearD. the fourth year55.The phrase“hit their stride” most probably means“ C ”.A. reach their normal levelB. become confidentC. walk with long stepsD. get bored56.The author of this passage the view that A .A. teachers will perform better with time passingB. ineffective teachers should leave earlier rather than laterC. teacher’s effectiveness is apparent after a couple of yearsD. a master’s degree will improve teacher’s effectiveness57.Why do black teachers tend to be more effective with black students? DA. Students feel secure, so they respond better.B. Teachers sympathize with students of their own race.C. There are entirely some other identified reasons.D. The reasons are far from clear and definite.58.Which of the following may serve as the best title? DA. Tenure, Turnover and the Quality of TeachingB. Impact of Teacher Quality on Student LearningC. Different Sorts of Measurement IssuesD. Survival-of-the-fittest Model vs. Learning-by-doing Model。

Anxiously watching several horsemen coming up,he let the first one pass by without any effort to get his attention,then another passed by,and another.Finally,the last rider drew near where the old man sat like a snow statue when old man caught his eyes and said,“Sir,would you mind giving an old man a ride to the other side?”Stopping his horse,the rider replied,“Sure!Jump aboard.”Seeing the old man unable to lift his half-frozen body from the ground,the horseman got down to help him.The horseman took him not just across the river,but to his destination just a few miles away.As they approached the tiny but cozy cottage,the horseman’s curiosity caused him to inquire,“Sir,I noticed you let several other riders pass by without making an effort to secure a ride.Then I came up and you immediately asked me for a ride.I am curious why,on such a bitter night,you would wait and ask the last rider.What if I had refused and left you here?”The old man looked the rider straight in the eyes and replied,“I reckon I know people pretty good.I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately found no concern for my situation. It would have been useless even to ask them for a ride.But when I looked into your eyes,your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me assistance in my time of need.”Those heart-warming comments touched the horseman deeply.“I’m so grateful for what you have said,”he told the old man.“May I never get too busy in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion.”With that,Thomas Jefferson turned his horse around and made his way back to the White House.66.Why didn’t the old man ask the previous riders for a ride?A.Because he was waiting for the last rider.B.Because his efforts failed to get their attention.C.Because he assumed they had no concern for him.D.Because he was too numb to lift his half-frozen body.67.What caused the last rider to stop and help the old man?A.The old man’s poor situation.B.The old man’s warm comments.C.His own affairs.D.Kindness and sympathy.68.What do you know about the old man?A.He judged people by looking into their eyes.B.He lived in a cozy cottage a few miles away.C.He gave the last rider an opportunity to help.D.He recognized the president at first.69.Which can be the best title of this text?A.Look into your eyes.passion of a great man.C.The last rider to help.D.Return to the White House.4.International Book ClubHave you ever thought of joining a book club and buying new books through the post?Here at the International Book Club,we already have many members buying books from us by mail.

only had a very small part of the land that originally belonged to them.How did this great injustice occur?After1812white settlers began to move west across North America.At first,the settlers and the Indians lived in peace.However,the number of settlers increased greatly every year,and slowly the Indians began to see the white settlers as a danger to their survival.To feed themselves,the settlers killed more and more wild animals.The Indians,who depended on these animals for food,had to struggle against starvation.The settlers also brought with them many diseases which were common in white society,but which were new for the Indians.Great numbers of Indians became sick and died.Between1843and1854the Indian population in one area of the country went down from100,000to30,000.More land was needed for the increasing number of white settlers.In Washington,the old respect for the rights of the Indians disappeared.The old promises to the Indians were broken;the government began to move groups of Indians from their original homelands to other poorer parts of the country.Some Indians reacted angrily and violently to this treatment.They began to attack white settlers,and the Indian war began.For30years,until the late1880s,different groups of Indians fought against the injustices of the white man.They had a few famous successes,but the result of the struggle was never in doubt.There were too many white soldiers,and they were too powerful.Many Indians were killed;the survivors were moved from their homelands to different area of the country.It was a terrible chapter in the history of a country that promised freedom and equality to everyone.74.It can be inferred from the passage that______.A.in the U.S.there were many laws that provided the rights of American IndiansB.the law which was passed in1789by the ernment was not successfully carried outC.in the19th century no injustices were done against the Indians by the ernmentD.the majority of white settlers were openly opposed to the law passed in178975.According to the passage which of the following is TRUE?A.The Indians believed that killing too many wild animals had disturbed the balance of nature.B.The government began to have a better understanding of the Indians in the fifties of the 19th century.C.Between1843and1854about70,000Indians were killed in the battle.D.The whites carried serious diseases into where the Indians lived.76.It is implied in the passage that______.A.the Indians had many great successes in the Indians warsB.the Indians had no doubt that they would win the warsC.after the war the Indians stayed where they were beforeD.the Indians were too weak to win the struggle77.What is the writer’s opinion about the treatment that the Indians received from the U.S. government?A.He believed that the government always respected the rights of the Indians.B.He believed that the government can’t be criticized for its treatment to the Indians.C.He believed that the government treated the Indians unjustly.D.He believed that the government’s unfair treatment against the Indians was not on purpose.6.The question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts in higher education isn’t an either/or proposition(命题),although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM(science,technology,engineering,maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training,but also asserts that the study of the humanities(人文学科)and social sciences must remain central components of America’s educational system at all levels.Both are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society,become innovative(创新的)leaders,and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great ideas of mankind over time provides.Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’job prospects as technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs.Under these circumstances,it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most“practical”way out of the problem“Major in a subject designed to get you a job”seems the obvious answer to some,though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as“soft”often,in fact,lead to employment and success in the long run.Indeed,according to surveys,employers have expressed a preference for students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well,think critically,research creatively,and communicate easily.Moreover,students should be prepared not just for their first job,but for their4th and5th jobs, as there’s little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles over the course of their careers.The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexible.The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight—picked up from science,arts,and technology—to solve the problems of the future,and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, will be helpful to them and the United States.(Note:Answer the questions or complete the

And their answer to the age-old 41 is that it all depends.Happiness, that is, 42 what makes you feel happy, which is why psychologists often call it “subjective well-being.” But from43 studies of various age and population groups in the United States and abroad, they have reached some 44 at the top of the charts is not, as many might expect, success, youth, good looks or any of those 45 assets.

She ran across the picturesque to the shores of Cayuga Lake, where she jumped into the water.So did many of her fellow seniors. But dozens of students decided to stay away, especially the relatively few newly arrived male students.Wells College, which since 1868 had educated only women, began accepting men this year in hopes of bolstering its dwindling enrollment. For many students and alumnae, it was a crushing decision. After the college announced last October that it would go coeducational, about half of the students protested and two filed a lawsuit, which they later dropped.The students —33 men and 383 women – campus late month Both sexes are now trying to navigate new social landscape. Mr. Phillips said “You can’t do guy stuff. Every time you want to sit and watch sports or a game, it turns into a movie.” The women were “some what nasty.” I could see the dirty looks in their eyes,” he said. “But I was not going to let that stop me from coming.”Wells was a place where women did not have to fuss over their appearance or47. worstA. mostB. bestC. least 48.

Besides jumping into the lake, the women dance around the maypole each May and kiss the feet of the statue of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, before exams.Ms. Alexander said, “People told us we wouldn’t notice a difference, but from the moment men arrived on campus not could notice a difference. Waking up early to put on makeup, and that’s odd,” she said.Henry Wells, a founder of Wells Fargo and a friend of Cornell’s benefactor, Ezra Cornell established this college, when women were not considered capable of higher learning. “Give her the opportunity,” he wrote.Henry Wells, a founder of Wells Fargo and a friend of Cornell’s benefactor, Ezra Cornell established this college, when were not considered capable of higher learning. “Give her the opportunity,” he wrote.The great-great-great-great granddaughter of Henry Wells, Stephanie Redmond, 18, of Washington State, said that earlier this year a Wells student had tracked her down and asked her to support the protest. But Ms. Redmond said the move the move to admit men had encouraged her to enroll at Wells this year as a freshman. She plans on a career in engineering, a male-dominated field, and said attending an all-women’s college might have put her at a disadvantage.49.The primary reason for the Wells College to accept men is that .A.its enrollment rate is declineB.the campus is lack of vigor and vitalityC.it will face the destiny of being closed downD.all-women’s college might put a woman at a disadvantage50. A typical behavior for seniors to do is that .A.they jog along the picturesque campusB.they switch sports programs to a movieC.they celebrate their year by jumping into a lakeD.they swim in Cayuga Lake accompanied by friends51.The change after turning into a coed college is that .A.dirty looks in women’s eyes have disappearedB.women get up early to make upC.women are waking up early to studyD.women dance with men around the maypole52.The attitude of the author is that .A.she hares a tradition of all-women schoolsB.she calls on women in support the protestC.she dislikes the change and hopes to file a lawsuitD.she objectively describes the new and uneasy coeducation53.Which of the following statements is Not true?A.The enrollment of male students caused controversy,B.The grandchildren of the college founder benefited most.C.The current president of the college was also its graduate.D.The founder hoped to give women opportunities of higher education.But what is teacher quality? How can one measure it reliably?An analysis is issued a sample of data a Texas school district. Experts argue convincingly that teacher effectiveness should be measured by students’ gains on standardized tests: Mr. Smith is presumably a better teacher than Ms. Brown if his students consistently improve their test scores more than hers do.Though this approach is appealing, there are tricky issues. For example, what if Ms. Brown teaches in a school where students score so high there is little room for improvement?The authors try to correct for this problem, as well as other sorts of measurement issues, to generate a measurement of teacher effectiveness. The paper is primarily concerned with how this measure is related to other observable teacher characteristics.The first finding is that is a large variation in teacher effectiveness: some teachers consistently have a larger impact on their students’ achievement than others.Second, easily observable characteristics like having a master’s degree or a passing score on the teacher certification exam are not correlated with teacher effectiveness.Then what does matter? The most important single influence is experience: first-year teachers are much less effective than others. The second year is significantly better, and by the fourth year, most teachers hit their stride.It is not entirely clear whether this experience effect is learning by doing (the more you teach, the more effective you become) or survival of the fittest (those who are not good at teaching tend to drop out early).From my reading of the paper, both effects appear important and there is no simple answer. The data do suggest, however, that teacher effectiveness is pretty clear by the end of the second year, so the information to make an informed decision is available at that time.The authors also investigate the contentious issue of racial matching of students and teachers. Here they find strong evidence that minority teachers tend to be more effective with minority students. Again, it is unclear whether this is because of a role model effect (students respond better of their own race) or an empathy effect (teachers empathize better with students of their own race) or something else entirely.The authors also look at teacher mobility. There is some evidence that teachers who quit teaching or switch schools tend to be below average in effectiveness. This is consistent with the survival-of-the-fittest model.54.The schoolmaster could decide wisely whether to further employ the teacher by the end of the .A. the first yearB. the second yearC. the third yearD. the fourth year55.The phrase “hit their stride” most probably means “”.A. reach their normal levelB. become confident1.A. increasinglyF.callingG.dependent senses B. lowering C. common D. solutions E. individually H. shortcomings I. consumption J. introduced K.C. walk with long stepsD. get bored56.The author of this passage holds the view that _ .A.teachers will perform better with time passingB.ineffective teachers should leave earlier rather than laterC.teacher’s effectiveness is apparent after a couple of yearsD.a master’s degree will improve teacher’s effectiveness57.Why do black teachers tend to be more effective with black students?A.Students feel secure, so they respond better.B.Teachers sympathize with students of their own race.C.There are entirely some other identified reasons.D.The reasons are far from clear and definite.58.Which of the following may serve as the best title?A.Tenure, Turnover and the Quality of TeachingB.Impact of Teacher Quality on Student LearningC.Different Sorts of Measurement IssuesD.Survival-of-the-fittest Model vs. Learning-by-doing Model上海复旦附中自主招生英语试题(2)ACBDCBACDA上海复旦附中自主招生英语试题(3)A United Nations panel on climate change says global warming is causing extreme weather all over the world and is 41 on governments to come up with new ideas to curb gas emissions. Since much of the air pollution comes from coal-fired power plants, scientists in Denmark are trying to lower their nation’s energy needs with new types of smart streetlights.Our 42 industrialized world needs huge amounts of electrical energy, but our power plants still rely mostly on technology 43 as early as the 19th century—coal—powered plants, hydroelectric dams or somewhat never nuclear energy, all of which have their own 44 .But scientists say we can slow down global warming by 45 energy demands for street lights.These 46 features of the world’s urban areas require a lot of electricity.The U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates that in 2012, lighting for buildings, streets and highways in the U.S. used about 274 billion kilowatt hours.In a bid to make Copenhagen the world’s first carbon-neutral city by 2025,scientists in the Danish capital are testing a variety of new street lighting technologies.Kim Brostrom is the chief technical officer at the Danish Outdoor Lighting Lab.“We have installed nine kilometers of streets, we have 280 masts placed here, we have 50 different 47 , we have 10 different management systems, and we have alot of different sensors and things out in the open area,” said Brostrom.Chief science officer Jakob Andersen says the lights can be managed 48 from a tablet computer or a smart phone.The main goal is to lower energy 49 when the light is not needed. So the lamp brightens up only when it 50 an approaching pedestrian, cyclist or vehicle. Some of them even have a backup wind generator or a solar cell.2.Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, on-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are 51 by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted bythe promise and 52 of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that 53 us psychologically and physically(身体上).Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to 54 that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the 55 of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale( 秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow or 56__ the word “diet” in food labels.On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our 57 that we do n’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance a(n) 58 .The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can 59 harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having 60 nutrients( 营养成分). Diet foods and diet pills 61 zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be 62 , and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to63 think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. 64 we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and 65 prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.51.

The old man’s beard was glazed by winter’s frost while he waited for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. His body became numb and stiff from the frigid north wind.It was long before he heard the faint, steady rhythm of hooves (马蹄) along the frozen path. Anxiously watching several horsemen coming up, he let the first one pass by without any effort to get his attention, then another passed by, and another. Finally, the last rider drew near where the old man sat like a snow statue when old man caught his eyes and said, “Sir, would you mind giving an old man a ride to the other side?”Stopping his horse, the rider replied, “Sure! Jump aboard.” Seeing the old man unable to lift his half-frozen body from the ground, the horseman got down to help him. The horseman took him not just across the river, but to his destination just a few miles away.As they approached the tiny but c ozy cottage, the horseman’s curiosity caused him to inquire, “Sir, I noticed you let several other riders pass by without making an effort to secure a ride. Then I came up and you immediately asked me for a ride. I am curious why, on such a bitter night, you would wait and ask the last rider. What if I had refused and left you here?”The old man looked the rider straight in the eyes and replied, “I reckon I know people pretty good. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately found no concern for my situation. It would have been useless even to ask them for a ride. But when I looked into your eyes, your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me assistance in my time of need.”Those heart-warming comments touched the horseman deeply. “I’m so grateful for what you have said,” he told the old man. “May I never get too busy in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion.”With that, Thomas Jefferson turned his horse around and made his way back to the White House.66.Why didn’t the old man ask the previous riders for a ride?A.Because he was waiting for the last rider.B.Because his efforts failed to get their attention.C.Because he assumed they had no concern for him.D.Because he was too numb to lift his half-frozen body.67.What caused the last rider to stop and help the old man?A. The old man’s poor situation.B. The old man’s warm comments.C. His own affairs.D. Kindness and sympathy.68.What do you know about the old man?A. He judged people by looking into their eyes.B. He lived in a cozy cottage a few miles away.C. He gave the last rider an opportunity to help.D. He recognized the president at first.69.Which can be the best title of this text?A. Look into your eyes.B. Compassion of a great man.C. The last rider to help.D.

One hundred years later, however, the Indians only had a very small part of the land that originally belonged to them. How did this great injustice occur?After 1812 white settlers began to move west across North America. At first, the settlers and the Indians lived in peace. However, the number of settlers increased greatly every year, and slowly the Indians began to see the white settlers as a danger to their survival. To feed themselves, the settlers killed more and more wild animals. The Indians, who depended on these animals for food, had to struggle against starvation. The settlers also brought with them many diseases which were common in white society, but which were new for the Indians. Great numbers of Indians became sick and died. Between 1843 and 1854 the Indian population in one area of the country went down from 100,000 to 30,000.More land was needed for the increasing number of white settlers. In Washington, the old respect for the rights of the Indians disappeared. The old promises to the Indians were broken; the government began to move groups of Indians from theiroriginal homelands to other poorer parts of the country. Some Indians reacted angrily and violently to this treatment. They began to attack white settlers, and the Indian war began. For 30 years, until the late 1880s, different groups of Indians fought against the injustices of the white man. They had a few famous successes, but the result of the struggle was never in doubt. There were too many white soldiers, and they were too powerful. Many Indians were killed; the survivors were moved from their homelands to different area of the country. It was a terrible chapter in the history of a country that promised freedom and equality to everyone.74.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.in the U.S. there were many laws that provided the rights of American IndiansB.the law which was passed in 1789 by the U.S. government was not successfully carried outC.in the 19th century no injustices were done against the Indians by the U.S. governmentD.the majority of white settlers were openly opposed to the law passed in 178975.According to the passage which of the following is TRUE?A.The Indians believed that killing too many wild animals had disturbed the balance of nature.B.The government began to have a better understanding of the Indians in the fifties of the 19th century.C.Between 1843 and 1854 about 70,000 Indians were killed in the battle.D.The whites carried serious diseases into where the Indians lived.76.It is implied in the passage that .A.the Indians had many great successes in the Indians warsB.the Indians had no doubt that they would win the warsC.after the war the Indians stayed where they were beforeD.the Indians were too weak to win the struggle77.What is the writer’s opinion about the treatment that the Indians received from the U.S. government?A.He believed that the government always respected the rights of the Indians.B.He believed that the government can’t be criticized for its treatment to the Indians.C.He believed that the government treated the Indians unjustly.D.He believed that the government’s unfair treatment against the Indians was not on purpose.6.The question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts in higher education isn’t an either/or proposition(命题), although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM(science, technology, engineering, maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training, but also asserts that the study of the humanities(人文学科)and socialsciences must remain central components of America’s educational system at all levels. Both are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society, become innovative(创新的)leaders, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great ideas of mankind over time provides.Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’ job prospects as technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs. Under these circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical” way out of the problem “Major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some, though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often, in fact, lead to employment and success in the long run. Indeed, according to surveys, employers have expressed a preference for students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research creatively, and communicate easily.Moreover, students should be prepared not just for their first job, but for their 4th and 5th jobs, as there’s little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexible. The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight—picked up from science, arts, and technology—to solve the problems of the future, and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, will be helpful to them and the United States.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)78.The latest congressional report suggests that.79.What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?80.What kind of job applicants do employers look for?81.What suggestions does the author give to college students?7.In order to study enzymes(酶), a small piece of potato is cut into very thin pieces. These thin pieces are placed in a little glass container and covered with water. Then a little of the proper chemical is added. Immediately, because of the enzyme present in the potato, the chemical starts joining with the oxygen in the air above the water. If the container is entirely closed, a partial vacuum(真空)is framed inside. If the container is now connected with a fine tube which is dipped in water, the water is sucked part way up the tube because of the vacuum.The scientists doing the experiment carefully notice how far up the tube is when water is sucked in a certain time. The higher it is sucked, the more of that particular enzyme and even about the way in which it operates. And all the time we are working with amounts far too small to see or weigh.1.What do the scientists want to find out in the experiment?。

She ran across the picturesque to the shores of Cayuga Lake，where she jumped into the water.So did many of her fellow seniors. But dozens of students decided to stay away，especially the relatively few newly arrived male students.Wells College，which since 1868 had educated only women，began accepting men this year in hopes of bolstering its dwindling enrollment. For many students and alumnae，it was a crushing decision. After the college announced last October that it would go coeducational，about half of the students protested and two filed a lawsuit，which they later dropped.The students—33 men and 383 women –campus late month Both sexes are now trying to navigate new social landscape. Mr. Phillips said―You can’t do guy stuff. Every time you want to sit and watch sports or a game，it turns into a movie.‖ The women were ―some what nasty.‖ I could see the dirty looks in their eyes，‖ he said.―But I was not going to let that stop me from coming.‖Wells was a place where women did not have to fuss over their appearance or fight to be takenseriously by their professors. They could enjoy the camaraderie of their campus sisters and their playful traditions. Besides jumping into the lake，the women dance around the maypole each May and kiss the feet of the statue of Minerva，the Roman goddess of wisdom，before exams. Ms. Alexander said，―People told us we wouldn’t notice a difference，but from the moment men arrived on campus not could notice a difference. Waking up early to put on makeup，and that’s odd，‖ she said.仿真已选Henry Wells，a founder of Wells Fargo and a friend of Cornell’s benefactor，Ezra Cornell established this college，when women were not considered capable of higher learning. ―Give her the opportunity，‖ he wrote.Henry Wells，a founder of Wells Fargo and a friend of Cornell’s benefactor，Ezra Cornell established this college，when were not considered capable of higher learning. ―Give her the opportunity，‖ he wrote.The great-great-great-great granddaughter of Henry Wells，Stephanie Redmond，18，of Washington State，said that earlier this year a Wells student had tracked her down and asked her to support the protest. But Ms. Redmond said the move the move to admit men had encouraged her to enroll at Wells this year as a freshman. She plans on a career in engineering， a male-dominated field，and said attending an all-women’s college might have put her at a disadvantage.49.The primary reason for the Wells College to accept men is that________.A. its enrollment rate is declineB. the campus is lack of vigor and vitalityC. it will face the destiny of being closed downD. all-women’s college might put a woman at a disadvantage50.A typical behavior for seniors to do that________.A. they jog along the picturesque campusB. they switch sports programs to a movieC. they celebrate their year by jumping into a lakeD. they swim in Cayuga Lake accompanied by friends51.The change after turning into a coed college is that_______.A. dirty looks in women’s eyes have disappearedB. women get up early to make upC. women are waking up early to studyD. women dance with men around the maypole52.The attitude of the author is that_______.A. she hares a tradition of all-women schoolsB. she calls on women in support the protestC. she dislikes the change and hopes to file a lawsuitD. she objectively describes the new and uneasy coeducation53.Which of the following statements is Not true？A. The enrollment of male students caused controversy，B. The grandchildren of the college founder benefited most.C. The current president of the college was also its graduate.D. The founder hoped to give women opportunities of higher education.2) But what is teacher quality？How can one measure it reliably？仿真已选An analysis is issued a sample of data a Texas school district. Experts argue convincingly that teacher effectiveness should be measured by students’ gains on standardized tests：Mr. Smith is presumably a better teacher than Ms. Brown if his students consistently improve their test scores more than hers do.Though this approach is appealing，there are tricky issues. For example，what if Ms. Brown teaches in a school where students score so high there is little room for improvement？The authors try to correct for this problem，as well as other sorts of measurement issues，to generate a measurement of teacher effectiveness. The paper is primarily concerned with how this measure is related to other observable teacher characteristics.The first finding is that is a large variation in teacher effectiveness：some teachers consistently have a larger impact on their students’ achievement than others.Second，easily observable characteristics like having a master’s degree or a passing score on the teacher certification exam are not correlated with teacher effectiveness.Then what does matter？The most important single influence is experience：first-year teachers are much less effective than others. The second year is significantly better，and by the fourth year，most teachers hit their stride.It is not entirely clear whether this experience effect is learning by doing （the more you teach，the more effective you become）or survival of the fittest （those who are not good at teaching tend to drop out early）。
