I found myself become an 45 child in a family I was not born into; I found myself in a 46 position that many native Americans find themselves in, living in a city that they do not understand at all, not in another culture but47 two cultures．A teacher of the English language told me that meksikatsi was not called meksikatsi, even though that is what 48 people have called that bird for thousands of years．Meksikatsi, he said, was really “duck”．I was very49 with English．I could not understand it．First of all, the bird did not look like “duck”, and when it made a 50 , it did not sound like “duck”, I was even more51 when I found out that the meaning of the verb “to duck” came from the bird．As I 52 to understand English better, I understand that it made a great deal of 53 , but I never forgot that meksikatsi made a different kind of meaning．I 54 thatlanguages are not just different words for the same things but totally different 55 , totally different ways of experiencing and looking at the world．36．A．keep B．watch C．follow D．search 37．A．jump B．dive C．circle D．wander 38．A．nest B．hill C．water D．road 39．A．quickly B．naturally C．freely D．quietly 40．A．means B．reads C．shows D．states 41．A．though B．because C．while D．until 42．A．communication B．imagination C．beliefD．flight43．A．dreamed B．worried C．knew D．argued 44．A．improved B．enriched C．changed D．ruined 45．A．educated B．adopted C．outgoingD．independent46．A．weak B．comfortable C．terrible D．central 47．A．between B．against C．without D．beyond 48．A．most B．few C．their D．my 49．A．desperate B．bored C．uncomfortableD．disappointed50．A．noise B．call C．decision D．choice51．A．ashamed B．confused C．embarrassedD．frightened52．A．tried B．came C．determined D．expected 53．A．evidence B．distinction C．profit D．sense 54．A．identified B．confirmed C．realized D．predicted 55．A．concepts B．regulations C．messagesD．evaluationsmake sense 有意义，讲得通言之有理第三部分：阅读理解（共两节，40分）AThe pupils of the remote Beau-Roc primary school in Haiti are chanting．One of them plays a guitar made from an empty oil tin．Their headmistress, Emile Jean-Noel, is one of the few women school headteachers in the country．Today, over 70% of Haitian population live without proper food, water, schools, or housing．To reduce the hunger that prevents learning and to encourage parents to send their children to school, meals are provided by the World Food Programme．"We are so cut off that we have many difficulties," comments Emile, adding that finding chalk, school books andother materials is practically impossible．Emile tries to encourage people around her to make use of available resources．Her efforts are bearing fruit．One of her successes was convincing local women to contribute to their children' s schooling and increase their income by selling embroidery（刺绣）and other handicrafts．Recent political instability has meant that the country has not invested （投资）in education for ten years．Only 44% of children go to school and less than half of them finish primary school. Less than a third of these children go on to secondary school．In rural areas it is not rare to find 17 and 18 year olds in primary school- Beau-Roc has only 4 teachers for 260 pupils．Emile works constantly to improve her pupils' environment．Under her direction, a local worker is now constructing a store house for the food delivered regularly by the WFP．Not only is Emile' s salary small, but she receives it irregularly．For her, transport is a real headache．She lives five kilometers away and has to take the tap tap, a privately-owned bus, costing more than she can afford．"The decision to be a rural teacher in Haiti should not betaken lightly" , Emile comments．"With all the sacrifices and risks it requires, only those who are really cut out for teaching should do it．" However, Emile loves her job．"I always feel at home with the children and, because the parents understand what I'm doing, I try to give my best．"56．Which of the following is extremely difficult for Beau-Roc primary school?A．Teaching the women how to make embroidery and other handicrafts．B．Persuading local women to care about their children' s education．C．Encouraging people around to use those available resources．D．Finding chalk, school books and other materials．57．The many figures in Paragraph 4 indicate _____．A．poor investment in Haitian education B．political instability in HaitiC．challenges in Emile' s life D．Emile' s constant efforts58．In the last paragraph, "those who are really cut out for teaching" refer to people who are _____．A．dismissed from teachingB．unfamiliar with teachingC．qualified for teaching D．cautious about teaching59．What topic is presented in this passage?A．Hardship for teachers．B．Devotion to education．C．Politics and children．D．Love and beauty．BAni—mazing Animation ContestAni—mazing is proud to announce its second animation （动画片）contest to introduce new animation talents to the world．Contest entries （参赛作品）will be shown at the West Coast Animation Exhibition from September 20．The exhibition will last for a week．Winners will be determined by a group of Animation Industry experts who will review every entry．The result will be announced on September 28 , 2011, when the awards ceremony will be held at the world - famous Egyptian Theatre, in Hollywood．We are also planning to have a number of programs leading up to September 28, so hopefully thissecond year will be a " Week of Animated Shorts"．Cash prizes ranging from $500 to $5,000 will be awarded, as well as giveaways such as animation software packages, resort trips and computer equipment．Please review these guidelines before sending your entry in: 1．There are no restrictions on animation technique, no age limits or education requirements．All animated films must be more than one minute long．2．All entries must be original and have received no major award before submitting to Ani - mazing．Both computer and hand animation is accepted．3．Keep in mind that your animation will be viewed by an all - ages audience.Ani—mazing reserves the right to reject entries containing inappropriate subject matter．4．More than one entries is allowed, however, all entries must be the work of nonprofessionals．Time limits may prevent us from exhibiting all of the entries received, so please choose one animation to be your primary entry．5．All entries must be handed in by July 30．If you have trouble making this deadline, contact us and we will considerextending the deadline for you．6．Please send a copy of your animation, not the original．We will not be able to return media to you．7．Your entry MUST include your name, age, educational background, contact information, and length of the animation．60．Why will the animation contest be held?A．To collect works for an animation exhibition．B．To attract more people to a course．C．To find new animation talents．D．To increase people' s awareness about animation．61．Which of the following meets the requirements of the contest?A．An animation made by hand．B．An animation lasting 50 seconds．C．An animation winning an award last year．D．An animation downloaded from the Internet．62．What is the deadline for entry?A．September27．B．September 20．C．July 30．D．September 28．CNo one wants to be tested．We would all like to get a driver' s license without answering questions about rights of way or showing that we can parallel park a car．Many future lawyers and doctors probably wish they could join their profession without taking an exam．But tests and standards are a necessary fact of life．They protect us from unskilled drivers, harmful products and dishonest professionals．In schools too exams play a．constructive有教育意义的建设性的role．They tell public officials whether new school programs are making a difference and where new investments are likely to pay off．They tell teachers what their students have learned——and have not．They tell parents how their children are doing compared with others their age．They encourage students to make more effort．It is important to recall that for most of century, educators used intelligence tests to decide which children should get a high - quality education．The point of IQ testing was to find out how much children were capable of learning rather than to testwhat they had actually learned．Based on IQ scores, millions of children were assigned分配to dumbed—down programs instead of solid courses in science, math, history, literature and foreign language．This history re minds us that tests should be used to improve education．Every child should have access to a high - quality education．Students should have full opportunity to learn what will be tested; otherwise their scores will merely reflect whether they come from an educated family．In the past few years, we have seen the enormous benefits that flow to disadvantaged students because of the information provided by state tests．Those who fall behind are now getting extra instruction in after - school classes and summer programs．In their efforts to improve student performance, states are increasing teachers salaries, testing new teachers and insisting on better teacher education．Performance in education means the mastery of both knowledge and skills．This is why it is reasonable to test teachers to make sure they know their subject matter, as well as how to teach it to young children．And this is why it is reasonable to assess whether students are ready to advance tothe next grade or graduate from high school．63．According to the passage, school exams enable ______．A．governments to make right policiesB．students to meet their teachers' requirementsC．teachers to understand if their students have made efforts D．parents to compare their kids' achievements across schools64．"Dumbed - down programs" in Paragraph 3 refer to the programs which .A．lead to high - quality education B．are less academically challengingC．are intended for intelligent studentsD．enable children to make steady progress65．Which of the following does the author probably agree with?A．Disadvantaged students can benefit from state tests．B．Tests should focus on what students have actually learned．C．Intelligent tests decide if children should get a high - quality education．D．Intelligent tests are helpful in separating excellent students from poor ones．66．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To re - assess the value of IQ testing．B．To defend the role of testing in education．C．To explain what high - quality education means．D．To call for thorough and complete reform in education．DIn a natural disaster—a hurricane, flood, volcanic eruption, or other catastrophes大灾难—minutes and even seconds of warning can make the difference between life and death．Because of this, scientists are working to use the latest technological advances to predict when and where disasters will happen．They are also studying how best to analyze and communicate this information once it is obtained．On September 29, 1998, Hurricane Georges made landfall in Biloxi, Mississippi, after damaging Haiti, the Dominican Republic,Puerto Rico, and several islands of the Caribbean badly with torrential rains and winds up to 160 km per hour．Few people lost their lives along the Gulf Coast of the United States, although hundreds died in the Caribbean．This was a very different outcome成果结果from 1900, when a powerful Gulf Coast hurricane made an unexpecteddirect hit on Galveston, Texas, killing at least 6,000 people．Vastly improved hurricane warnings explain the different circumstances at either end of the 20th century——residents of Galveston had no advance warning that a storm was approaching, while residents of Biloxi had been warned days in advance, allowing for extensive广泛的大量的safety precautions （预防）．At the same time that people in Biloxi were thankful for the advance warning, some residents of New Orleans, Louisiana were less satisfied．A day before Georges made landfall, forecasters were predicting that the hurricane had a good chance of striking New Orleans．Because much of New Orleans lies below sea level, the city is at risk for flooding．Emergency management officials must begin evacuations （疏散）well before a storm strikes．But evacuation costs money: businesses close, tourists leave, and citizens take precautionary measures．The mayor of New Orleans estimated that his city' s preparations for Georges cost more than 50 million．After Georges missed New Orleans, some residents questioned the value of the hurricane forecasts in the face of such high costs．The different views on the early warnings for HurricaneGeorges show some of the complexities related to predicting disasters．Disaster prediction is a process of providing scientific information to the government officials and other decision makers who must respond to those predictions．67．What is the purpose of disaster prediction according to the passage?A．To identify the cause of disasters．B．To save people' s lives and property．C．To prevent natural disasters from happening,D．To apply advanced technology to disaster prediction．68．Which of the following areas suffered the most severe damage?A．Puerto Rico．B．New Orleans．C．Biloxi, Mississippi．D．Galveston, Texas．69．The city residents of New Orleans were unsatisfied because __ _ .A．their preparations were made in vainB．the hurricane warning arrived rather lateC．the forecast hurricane did not hit the cityD．they suffered from a heavy hurricane attack70．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The different ways of disaster prediction．B．Technological advances in disaster prediction．C．The benefits and preparations of disaster prediction．D．The importance and uncertainty of disaster prediction．二．根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。

[整理]2012年大学英语六级考试模拟试题及答案解析完整版.

2012年大学英语六级考试模拟试题及答案解析（完整版）Part Ⅰ Writing (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled College Students on the Job Market. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below.1.当今大学生面临着严重的就业压力2.这一现象的产生有多方面的原因3.解决的办法College Students on the Job Market_____________________________________________________________________________ Part I Writing【写作思路】本文是关于对某种社会现象的讨论，探讨其原因，并提供解决问题的方案。

毕业生就业压力大，是目前比较热门的话题，媒体、社会以及学生本人都会时不时的讨论，所以文章难度不是很大。

文章开篇提出就业压力大的问题，毕业生越来越多，而就业市场却保持稳定，两者之间的不平衡，导致毕业生面临越来越大的就业压力。

第二段讨论出现这种问题的原因。

第一方面，从宏观上来看，整个世界的经济危机影响了就业市场;第二方面，从学校招生来看，热门专业人数过多，结果供过于求，而冷门专业学生很少，结果供不应求。

第三段针对第二段的原因，探讨相应的解决方案。

从政府的角度出发，要尽可能的采取各种手段帮助经济恢复，帮助学生就业;从个人角度出发，要学会自主选择，不追潮流，学习自己感兴趣的，努力提高自身素质，增强竞争能力。

【参考范文】More and more graduates are going out of universities and entering into the society every year while the demand on the job market remains stable. The college students are facing greater and greater pressure in job-hunting.There are many reasons behind the current phenomenon. To begin with, the economy has been confronted with depression in recent years on a global level, and it takes time for the worldwide economy to recover. What's more, there is an element of irrationality in the enrollment of the campuses. Some hot majors have enrolled too many students, and many people compete for one position after graduation, whereas the majors with little attention have few students, and more graduates are needed than the campus can supply.The solution to this problem lies with both the government as a whole and the individual in specific. The government takes whatever measures possible to help the economy recover and to create more job opportunities for the applicants. And for the individual students, it is better to study what they are interested in and to gain experience through practice, thus better prepared for the society.Part ⅡReading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7, choose the best answerfrom the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Will Electronic Medical Records Improve Health Care?Electronic health records (EHRs) have received a lot of attention since the Obama administration committed $19 billion in stimulus funds earlier this year to encourage hospitals and health care facilities to digitize patient data and make better use of information technology. The healthcare industry as a whole, however, has been slow to adopt information technology and integrate computer systems, raising the question of whether the push to digitize will result in information that empowers doctors to make better-informed decisions or a morass of disconnected data.The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) knows firsthand how difficult it is to achieve the former, and how easily an EHR plan can fall into the latter. UPMC has spent five years and more than $1 billion on information technology systems to get ahead of the EHR issue. While that is more than five times as much as recent estimates say it should cost a hospital system, UPMC is a mammoth network consisting of 20 hospitals as well as 400 doctors' offices, outpatient sites and long-term care facilities employing about 50,000 people.UPMC's early attempts to create a universal EHR system, such as its ambulatory electronic medical records rolled out between 2000 and 2005, were met with resistance as doctors, staff and other users either avoided using the new technology altogether or clung to individual, disconnected software and systems that UPMC's IT department had implemented over the years.On the mendAlthough UPMC began digitizing some of its records in 1996, the turning point in its efforts came in 2004 with the rollout of its eRecord system across the entire health care network. eRecord now contains more than 3.6 million electronic patient records, including images and CT scans, clinical laboratory information, radiology data, and a picture archival and communication system that digitizes images and makes them available on PCs. The EHR system has 29,000 users, including more than 5,000 physicians employed by or affiliated with UPMC.If UPMC makes EHR systems look easy, don't be fooled, cautions UPMC chief medical information officer Dan Martich, who says the health care network's IT systems require a "huge, ongoing effort" to ensure that those systems can communicate with one another. One of the main reasons is that UPMC, like many other health care organizations, uses a number of different vendors for its medical and IT systems, leaving the integration largely up to the IT staff.Since doctors typically do not want to change the way they work for the sake of a computer system, the success of an EHR program is dictated not only by the presence of the technology but also by how well the doctors are trained on, and use, the technology. Physicians need to see the benefits of using EHR systems both persistently and consistently, says Louis Baverso, chief information officer at UPMC's Magee-Women's Hospital. But these benefits might not be obvious at first, he says, adding, "What doctors see in the beginning is that they're losing their ability to work with paper documents, which has been so valuable to them up untilnow."Opportunities and costsGiven the lack of EHR adoption throughout the health care world, there are a lot of opportunities to get this right (or wrong). Less than 10 percent of U.S. hospitals have adopted electronic medical records even in the most basic way, according to a study authored by Ashish Jha, associate professor of health policy and management at Harvard School of Public Health. Only 1.5 percent have adopted a comprehensive system of electronic records that includes physicians' notes and orders and decision support systems that alert doctors of potential drug interactions or other problems that might result from their intended orders.Cost is the primary factor stalling EHR systems, followed by resistance from physicians unwilling to adopt new technologies and a lack of staff with adequate IT expertise, according to Jha. He indicated that a hospital could spend from $20 million to $200 million to implement an electronic record system over several years, depending on the size of the hospital. A typical doctor's office would cost an estimated $50,000 to outfit with an EHR system.The upside of EHR systems is more difficult to quantify. Although some estimates say that hospitals and doctor's offices could save as much as $100 million annually by moving to EHRs, the mere act of implementing the technology guarantees neither cost savings nor improvements in care, Jha said during a Harvard School of Public Health community forum on September 17. Another Harvard study of hospital computerization likewise determined that cutting costs and improving care through health IT as it exists today is "wishful thinking". This study was led by David Himmelstein, associate professor at Harvard Medical School.The cost of getting it wrongThe difference between the projected cost savings and the reality of the situation stems from the fact that the EHR technologies implemented to date have not been designed to save money or improve patient care, says Leonard D'Avolio, associate center director of Biomedical Informatics at the Massachusetts Veterans Epidemiology Research and Information Center (MAVERIC). Instead, EHRs are used to document individual patients' conditions, pass this information among clinicians treating those patients, justify financial reimbursement and serve as the legal records of events.This is because, if a health care facility has $1 million to spend, its managers are more likely to spend it on an expensive piece of lab equipment than on information technology, D'Avolio says, adding that the investment on lab equipment can be made up by charging patients access to it as a billable service. This is not the case for IT. Also, computers and networks used throughout hospitals and health care facilities are disconnected and often manufactured by different vendors without a standardized way of communicating. "Medical data is difficult to standardize because caring for patients is a complex process," he says. "We need to find some way of reaching across not just departments but entire hospitals. If you can't measure something, you can't improve it, and without access to this data, you can't measure it."To qualify for a piece of the $19 billion being offered through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), healthcare facilities will have to justify the significance of their IT investments to ensure they are "meaningful users" of EHRs. The Department of Health and Human Services has yet to define what it considers meaningful useAggregating info to create knowledgeIdeally, in addition to providing doctors with basic information about their patients, databases of vital signs, images, laboratory values, medications, diseases, interventions, and patient demographic information could be mined for new knowledge, D'Avolio says. "With just a few of these databases networked together, the power to improve health care increases exponentially," D'Avolio suggested. "All that is missing is the collective realization that better health care requires access to better information—not automation of the status quo." Down the road, the addition of genomic information, environmental factors and family history to these databases will enable clinicians to begin to realize the potential of personalized medicine, he added.1. In America, it is slow to adopt information technology because —————.A) the funds invested by the government is not enough in the pastB) EHRs have received less attention of the public in the pastC) whether it will be useful to doctors or not is doubtfulD) UPMC knows how difficult it is to digitize the hospital2. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) —————.A) is the first medical center to adopt information technologyB) satisfy the requirement of the government on information technologyC) spent less money on information technology than it was estimatedD) attempted to created a universal EHR system, but met some difficulties3. The health care network’s IT systems require a lot of effort to ensure it can communicate with one another mainly because —————..A) the integration among different system is largely up to the IT staffB) UPMC is like many other health care organizations in the United StatesC) UPMC makes EHR systems look easyD) UMPC began digitizing some of its records in 19964. The success of the EHR program is decided by —————..A) the fact whether the information technology is available or notB) the fact how well the doctors are trained to use the information technologyC) not only the presence of the technology but the doctor’s training on technologyD) the fact whether physicians can see the benefits of using EHR systems5.

2012年高考英语模拟试卷6--

2012年高考英语模拟试卷6--2012年高考英语模拟试卷第三部分：阅读理解（共两节，40分）AThe pupils of the remote Beau-Roc primary school in Haiti are chanting．One of them plays a guitar made from an empty oil tin．Their headmistress, Emile Jean-Noel, is one of the few women school headteachers in the country．Today, over 70% of Haitian population live without proper food, water, schools, or housing．To reduce the hunger that prevents learning and to encourage parents to send their children to school, meals are provided by the World Food Programme．"We are so cut off that we have many difficulties," comments Emile, adding that finding chalk, school books and other materials is practically impossible．Emile tries to encourage people around her to make use of available resources．Her efforts are bearing fruit．One of her successes was convincing local women to contribute to their children' sschooling and increase their income by selling embroidery（刺绣）and other handicrafts．Recent political instability has meant that the country has not invested （投资）in education for ten years．Only 44% of children go to school and less than half of them finish primary school. Less than a third of these children go on to secondary school．In rural areas it is not rare to find 17 and 18 year olds in primary school- Beau-Roc has only 4 teachers for 260 pupils．Emile works constantly to improve her pupils' environment．Under her direction, a local worker is now constructing a store house for the food delivered regularly by the WFP．Not only is Emile' s salary small, but she receives it irregularly．For her, transport is a real headache．She lives five kilometers away and has to take the tap tap, a privately-owned bus, costing more than she can afford．"The decision to be a rural teacher in Haiti should not be taken lightly" , Emile58．In the last paragraph, "those who are really cut out for teaching" refer to people who are _____．A．dismissed from teachingB．unfamiliar with teaching C．qualified for teachingD．cautious about teaching 59．What topic is presented in this passage? A．Hardship for teachers．B．Devotion to education．C．Politics and children．D．Love and beauty．BAni—mazing Animation ContestAni—mazing is proud to announce its second animation （动画片）contest to introduce new animation talents to the world．Contest entries （参赛作品）will be shown at the West Coast Animation Exhibition from September 20．The exhibition will last for aweek．Winners will be determined by a group of Animation Industry experts who will review every entry．The result will be announced on September 28 , 2011, when the awards ceremony will be held at the world - famous Egyptian Theatre, in Hollywood．We are also planning to have a number of programs leading up to September 28, so hopefully this second year will be a " Week of Animated Shorts"．Cash prizes ranging from $500 to $5,000 will be awarded, as well as giveaways such as animation software packages, resort trips and computer equipment．Please review these guidelines before sending your entry in:1．There are no restrictions on animation technique, no age limits or education requirements．All animated films must be more than one minute long．2．All entries must be original and have received no major award before submitting to Ani - mazing．Both computer and handanimation is accepted．3．Keep in mind that your animation will be viewed by an all - ages audience.Ani—mazing reserves the right to rejectentries containing inappropriate subjectmatter．4．More than one entries is allowed, however, all entries must be the work ofnonprofessionals．Time limits may preventus from exhibiting all of the entries received, so please choose one animation to be yourprimary entry．5．All entries must be handed in by July 30．If you have trouble making this deadline,contact us and we will consider extendingthe deadline for you．6．Please send a copy of your animation, not the original．We will not be able to returnmedia to you．7．Your entry MUST include your name, age, educational background, contactinformation, and length of the animation．60．Why will the animation contest be held? A．To collect works for an animationexhibition．B．To attract more people to a course．C．To find new animation talents．D．To increase people' s awareness aboutanimation．61．Which of the following meets the requirements of the contest?A．An animation made by hand．B．An animation lasting 50 seconds．C．An animation winning an award last year．D．An animation downloaded from theInternet．62．What is the deadline for entry? A．September 27．B．September 20．C．July 30．D．September 28．CNo one wants to be tested．We would all liketo get a driver' s license without answering questions about rights of way or showing that we can parallel park a car．Many future lawyers and doctors probably wish they could join their profession without taking an exam．But tests and standards are a necessary fact of life．They protect us from unskilled drivers, harmful products and dishonest professionals．In schools too exams play a．constructive role．They tell public officials whether new school programs are making a difference and where new investments are likely to pay off．They tell teachers what their students have learned——and have not．They tell parents how their children are doing compared with others their age．They encourage students to make more effort．It is important to recall that for most of century, educators used intelligence tests to decide which children should get a high - quality education．The point of IQ testing was to find out how much children were capable of learningrather than to test what they had actually learned．Based on IQ scores, millions of children were assigned to dumbed—down programs instead of solid courses in science, math, history, literature and foreign language．This history reminds us that tests should be used to improve education．Every child should have access to a high - quality education．Students should have full opportunity to learn what will be tested; otherwise their scores will merely reflect whether they come from an educated family．In the past few years, we have seen the enormous benefits that flow to disadvantaged students because of the information provided by state tests．Those who fall behind are now getting extra instruction in after - school classes and summer programs．In their efforts to improve student performance, states are increasing teachers salaries, testing new teachers and insisting on better teacher education．Performance in education means the mastery of both knowledge and skills．This is why it is reasonable to test teachers to make sure they know their subject matter, as well as how to teach it to young children．And this is why it is reasonable to assess whether students are ready to advance to the next grade or graduate from high school．63．According to the passage, school exams enable ______．A．governments to make right policies B．students to meet their teachers' requirementsC．teachers to understand if their students have made effortsD．parents to compare their kids' achievements across schools 64．"Dumbed - down programs" in Paragraph 3 refer to the programs which . A．lead to high - quality educationB．are less academically challengingC．are intended for intelligent studentsD．enable children to make steady progress 65．Which of the following does the author probably agree with? A．Disadvantaged students can benefit from state tests．B．Tests should focus on what students have actually learned．C．Intelligent tests decide if children should get a high - quality education．D．Intelligent tests are helpful in separating excellent students from poor ones．66．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To re - assess the value of IQ testing．B．To defend the role of testing in education．C．To explain what high - quality education means．D．To call for thorough and complete reform in education．DIn a natural disaster—a hurricane, flood, volcanic eruption, or other catastrophes—minutes and even seconds of warning can make the difference between life and death．Because of this, scientists are working to use the latest technological advances to predict when and where disasters will happen．They are also studying how best to analyze and communicate this information once it is obtained．On September 29, 1998, Hurricane Georges made landfall in Biloxi, Mississippi, after damaging Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and several islands of the Caribbean badly with torrential rains and winds up to 160 km per hour．Few people lost their lives along the Gulf Coast of the United States, although hundreds died in the Caribbean．This was a very different outcome from 1900, when a powerful Gulf Coast hurricane made an unexpected direct hit on Galveston, Texas, killing at least 6,000 people．Vastly improved hurricane warnings explain the different circumstances at either end of the 20th century——residents of Galvestonhad no advance warning that a storm was approaching, while residents of Biloxi had been warned days in advance, allowing for extensive safety precautions （预防）．At the same time that people in Biloxi were thankful for the advance warning, some residents of New Orleans, Louisiana were less satisfied．A day before Georges made landfall, forecasters were predicting that the hurricane had a good chance of striking New Orleans．Because much of New Orleans lies below sea level, the city is at risk for flooding．Emergency management officials must begin evacuations （疏散）well before a storm strikes．But evacuation costs money: businesses close, tourists leave, and citizens take precautionary measures．The mayor of New Orleans estimated that his city' s preparations for Georges cost more than 50 million．After Georges missed New Orleans, some residents questioned the value of the hurricane forecasts in the face of such high costs．The different views on the early warnings for Hurricane Georges show some of the complexities related to predicting disasters．Disaster prediction is a process of providing scientific information to the government officials and other decision makers who must respond to those predictions．67．What is the purpose of disaster prediction according to the passage?A．To identify the cause of disasters．B．To save people' s lives and property．C．To prevent natural disasters from happening,D．To apply advanced technology to disaster prediction．68．Which of the following areas suffered the most severe damage?A．Puerto Rico．B．New Orleans．C．Biloxi, Mississippi．D．Galveston, Texas．69．The city residents of New Orleans were unsatisfied because __ _ .A．their preparations were made in vain B．the hurricane warning arrived rather late C．the forecast hurricane did not hit the city D．they suffered from a heavy hurricane attack70．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．The different ways of disaster prediction．B．Technological advances in disaster prediction．C．The benefits and preparations of disaster prediction．D．The importance and uncertainty of disaster prediction．第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。
