I put a small set of Tinkertoys in frontout of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - andof each student, and said:”Make something45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Severalothers checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided.Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructionsfilled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at thepresence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meantthat I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) otherstudents.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students whohad a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, ” But I’m just not cre “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildlyimaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”25.

To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choosebooks to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page onthe traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossingprovides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place,hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who findsit.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change you life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoeverfinds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mailsare then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found.Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on ashelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-fivecountries.29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B.

In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them aftera disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Manyof the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended totake Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to thesouthernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force apassage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more thanwhat Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story Thelast journey,Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’scompleted as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, an made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got towithin 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make moneyfrom movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer whoknew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33.

Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?A. Frank HurleyB. Ernest ShackletonC. Robert Falcon ScottD. Caroline Alexander35.

The set worked so beautiful when I firstgot it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night.Fortunately,I didn ’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten tobed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电 )noise. For some reason,when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds.Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show,and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes thistechnique would not work,and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound.I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉 ) shaking my set.Whenneither of these methods removed the static noise,I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, andit stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit isworking well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21.

If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellowor red room. Warmcolors like yellow make food appear more appetizing,while cold colors make us less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock– or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Beginkeeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turning on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plants can easily makes us fat.

The gap-year phenomenon originated( 起源 ) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants betweenentrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.This year,25,310students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics onuniversity entrance provided by the University and College Admissions Service(UCAS).That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. TonyHiggins from UCASsaid that the statistics are g ood news for everyone in higher education.“Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, andcomplete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union ofStudents(NUS),argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship– young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education.“New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to£ 15,000 in debt. It isnot surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to supportto work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacating periods,”he said.29.

I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one ofthe model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare,”But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”25. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students’ interest in artD. teach the students about toy design26. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.27. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Mistake.B. Drawback.C. Difficulty.D. Burden.28. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing. turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real”and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C. A public place.D. The identification number.31. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.32. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books: A new TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through BooksDA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movieand still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33. What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A. They were made last weekB. They showed undersea sceneriesC. They were found by a cameramanD. They recorded a disastrous adventure34. Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?A. Frank HurleyB. Ernest ShackletonC. Robert Falcon ScottD. Caroline Alexander35. What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?A. Artistic creationB. Scientific researchC. Money makingD. Treasure hunting第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
