I was shocked when the monitor shouted，“stand up！”The entire class rose as I entered the room and I was somewhat confused about how to get them to sit down again，but once the embarrassment was over，I quickly regained my calmness and admiration.I went back to my office with the rosy glow which came from a strong sense of achievement. My students kept diaries.However，as I read them，the rosy glow was gradually replaced by a strong sense of sadness.The first diary said，“Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today.Perhaps her next lecture will be better.”Greatly surprised，I read diary after diary，each expressing a similar theme.“Didn’t I teach them anything？I described the entire Western philosophy (哲学) and laid the historical background for all the works we will study in class，”I complained.“How should they say I didn’t teach them anything？” It was a long term，and it gradually became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as those of my students.I thought a teacher’s job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background so that students could draw their own conclusions.My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide exact information as directly and clearly as possible.What a difference! However，I also learned a lot，and the experience with my Chinese students has made me a better American teacher，knowing how to teach in a different culture. 56．The writer wants to tell us through his experience that ________. A．Chinese students are hard to teachB．he has no experience in teaching Chinese students C．Chinese students has made him a better American teacher D．different countries have different cultures even in teaching 57．We can know that on the first day the writer ________. A．was disappointed at her students’ performance B．felt very confident about herself at first C．felt she didn’t teach them much D．was very confident about her students 58．At the beginning of the lesson，the writer got confused because of ________. A．cultural differences B．her own embarrassment C．students’ embarrassment D．students’ admiration 59．The writer learnt from their diaries that the students wanted to ________. A．raise interesting questions B．know more about background C．draw their own conclusions D．know more about exact facts B If there is no difference in general intelligence (智力) between boys and girls，what can explain girls’ poor performance in science and mathematics? It seems that their treatment at school is a direct cause.Mathematics and science are seen as subjects mainly for boys，and therefore，as girls become teenagers，they are less likely to take them.Interestingly，both boys and girls often regard the subjects for boys as more difficult.Yet it has been suggested that girls do not take mathematics courses，not because they are difficult，but for social reasons.Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine (女性的) and attractive. However，if we examine the performance of boys and girls who have taken mathematics courses，there are still more highachieving boys than there are girls.This difference appears to be worldwide.Biological explanations have been offered for this，but there are other explanations，too. Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences.From their first days in kindergarten，boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks.Facts show that outstanding (杰出的) mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who supplied answers. Besides，there can be little doubt that teachers of mathematics and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students.They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls.They spend more time with the boy students，giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them.They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion.They also praise boys more frequently.All of these seem to encourage boys to work harder in science and mathematics and to give them confidence (信心) that they are able to succeed. Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many mathematics and science courses，nor is it likely to support girls who do.When it comes to these subjects it seems certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls. 60．The text mainly discusses________ reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements. A．biological B．Historical C．social D．personal 61．What are boys usually encouraged to do at school? A．To get help with their homework. B．To play the leading role in class. C．To work with girl students in class. D．To learn to take care of others. 62．What does the passage say about great mathematicians? A．Their teachers did not supply answers to them. B．They started learning mathematics at an earlier age. C．They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years. D．Their success resulted from their strong interest in mathematics. 63．The author would probably agree that________. A．boys and girls learn in the same wayB．boys and girls are equal in general intelligence C．girls are more confident in themselves than before D．girls should take fewer science courses than boys C “A child is dying out of breath！” I had just began my working day in the city，when these words came through the radio of the police car I was driving.I turned on the red lights and siren (警笛) and drove off as fast as I could，“Just my luck！” I thought.I did not know this city well and my first call of the day was a lifeanddeath sudden happening several kilometers away. I got to the house.A mother，filled with fear，handed me her baby，her face already blue.Was I too late? Dear me! I did what I had been taught to do in such a serious condition.A small thing flew out of the baby’s mouth onto the floor.It was a button.Thank heaven! The holes in it let a little air through. A doctor rushed into the room with an oxygen bag.The baby began to cry at the top of his voice，burned red and started to look for his mother.He was angry but was saved. 64．The writer of the story is ________. A．a policeman B．a driver C．a doctor D．the boy’s father 65．The writer turned on the red lights and siren in order to ________. A．show that he was a police B．have the people in the streets make way for him C．warn the people in the streets of the danger ahead D．tell the people in the streets that he did not know the way well 66．The baby was still living when the writer got to the house because________. A．the writer arrived in time B．the writer had been taught what to do at that time C．the button was not big enoughD．the button happened to have holes in it 67．What did the writer mean when he said to himself “Just my luck！”？ A．It was a good chance for him to practice what he had learned before. B．He was happy to have such a serious matter on his working day. C．He was not at all happy to have so serious a matter on his working day. D．He had been long waiting for the day to come. D If you think English means endless new words，difficult grammars and sometimes strange pronunciations，you are wrong.Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language? According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles. The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr.Andrea Mecheli，from University College London，took a group of Britons who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners. Scans showed that grey matter density (密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference. “Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，”said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn. Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales，has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills.“Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible (灵活的)，”he said，“You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.” The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 and 34. Reading，writing，and comprehension were all tested.The results showed that the younger they started to learn，the better.“Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world，” explained the scientists. 68.The main subject talked about in this passage is ________. A．science on learning a second languageB．man’s ability of learning a second language C．language study can help improve brain powerD．language learning and maths study 69．In the second paragraph，the writer mentions “exercise” in order to ________. A．say language is also a kind of physical labor B．prove that one needs more practice when he (she) is learning a language C．show the importance of using the language when you learn it D．make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well 70．The word “bilinguals” (Paragraph 4) probably means ________. A．researchers on language learning B．second language learners C．persons who can speak two languages D．active language learners 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。 How to Make Friends 71．____. Indeed, there are many things in life which we alone cannot perform. We need friends’ help. Friends are people who willingly and readily help us when we are in trouble and show sympathy for us when we are in misery. 72．____.For example, when we have passed the graduation examination and are looking for a job, we need experienced and reliable friends to guide us and help us on our way. A good friend is also an adviser because our own points of view towards things may not be always right.73.____. Of course, we can make friends everywhere. However, I think the best place is school, where we are among a big number of boys and girls of our own age, so it is easy to get to know one another in a short time.74.____. In order to make friends, we ourselves must be honest, nobleminded and kindhearted whereby to leave a favorable impression on others since other people observe us the same way as we do. At the same time, we should avoid bad friends, because they always do harm to us and moreover, they are dangerous to the people around. What is even worse, they destroy our friendship with good friends.75.____. A. Indeed, seeking acquaintance with bad friends would be a serious mistake B. A faithful friend is hard to find D. A friend in need is a friend indeed C. Therefore, it is necessary for us to seek advice from friends E. Besides, we can also make friends among the people who work with us in the community F.
