Using these cigarettes requires small power from b attery and these cigarettes are also available in various flavor s and varied nicotine levels. Owing to the fact that the charge from a short cable is required, carrying the electronic cigarette s can’t be that easy in some case. This means that the smoki ng habits of individuals are in fact controlled! Also, the human body is protected from harmful smoke that is not given off by t he electrical version of these new age cigarettes.The cigarettes are in a fine pack and they are durable(持久的)! For the first time ever, tobacco smokers do not have to ca rry matches and lighters which may cause burns to their finge r tips and boring holes into their clothes! The result is basic dignity for the smokers because they will not disrespect the non-smokers among them by polluting the air that they breathe. El ectronic cigarettes and the packages they come in can also b e reused, which means that a lot of money can be saved. They are environmentally friendly. For starters, this kind of cig arettes cannot be put on unless with a source of an electrical current. This means that rooms and pathways do not, under a ny circumstances, get filled with smoke just because a smoke r passed by! The smoke is done away, meaning the air, evenaround a smoker, is always fresh! Disposals(处理) for the cigarettes have also been invented so that there ar e no harmful smoking bits and pieces carelessly thrown away which pollute the environment!E-cigarettes have made the world a better place at the very leas t. Those who are addicted to smoking on a regular or even irr egular basis can therefore do so responsibly and give better c onsideration to their health.36．It’s learned from Paragraph 1 that .A.the original smoking habits of smokers are hard to controlB.e-cigarettes have different tastes and nicotine levelsC.the electronic cigarettes are convenient to carryD.the short cable is used to determine how fully the batteries are charged37．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?A.Why do e-cigarettes produce no smoke.B.E-cigarettes are environmentally friendly.C.Why are disposals for the cigarettes invented.D.E-cigarettes benefit both smokers and non-smokers. 38．According to the author, e-cigarettes .A.matter less to heavy smokersB.are right alternatives to smokersC.shouldn’t be overvaluedD.should be made cheap 39．What’s the purpose of this passage?A.To introduce an invention.B.To describe the wide spread of e-cigarettes.C.To explain the injury from breathing cigarettes.D.To show how to smoke e-cigarettes.(B)A home computer not only helps children master the old ways of learning, but also opens up possibilities that simply aren’t a vailable in traditional education. Some software, for example, allows kids to make decisions and see the results in different situations. The World Wide Web encourages young minds to move easily from link to link, topic to topic. The best software draws children into learning by making them curious—what if I click on this picture, drag this over here, visit that web site?Knowing how to use a computer also encourages a child’s co nfidence. Kids figure out quickly that computers are powerful, and mastering the machine makes them feel grown-up. In turn, feeling confident on a computer often translates toacademic(学术的)confidence. Researchers have found that attitudes toward writing, for example, improve when students write on a compu ter.Perhaps most importantly, computers can enrich family l. Forget the idea that computer kids are separated. Children li ke to use the computer withadults and other kids, asking questions and comparing results . “The Internet is a unique opportunity to bring resources hom e, ”notes Susan Haugland, PhD, , , author of Computer and Young Children:A World of Discovery.Although the benefits of computers are real, they have disadv antages, too. Kids can lose their way, wasting hours on mindl ess software of violent games. Just as parents have always h elped children make good choices about everything from frien ds to food, books to TV, now we must make sure they get the best out of computers.40．The passage is mainly talking about______.A.the disadvantages of children’s using computersB.the advantages of children’s using computersC.the development of computersD.the fact that using computers makes children lose their way41．Which of the following is NOT an advantage of a home c omputer?A.It provides new ways of learning.B.It encourages childr en’s confidence.C.It can enrich family life.D.Kids can play violent games on it.42．What effects do computers have on family life?A.They reduce the connection between family members.B.They destroy the relationship between parents and kids.C.They provide more opportunities of communication.D.They make all the family members study together. 43．According to the last paragraph, we can learn that we sh ould______.A.let children use computers freelyB.forbid children to use computers in their spare timeC.permit children to use any software they likeD.help children make good use of the computers(C)To extinguish (熄灭) different kinds of fires, several types of fire extinguishers h ave been invented. They must be ready for immediate use when fire breaks out. Most portable (手提式的) kinds operate for less than a minute, so they are useful on ly on small fires. The law requires ships, trains, buses and pl anes to carry extinguishers.Since fuel, oxygen (氧气) and heat must be present in order for fire to exist, one or more of these things must be removed or reduced to extinguis h a fire. If the heat is reduced by cooling the material below a certain temperature, the fire goes out. The cooling method is t he most common way to put out a fire. Water is the best cooli ng material because it is low in cost and easy to get.Another method of extinguishing fire is by cutting off the oxyg en. This is usually done by covering the fire with sand, steam or some other things. A blanket may be used do cover a small fire.A third method is called separation, which includes removing t he fuel, or material easy to burn, from a fire, so that it can find no fuel.The method that is used to put out a fire depends upon the ty pe of fire. Fires have been grouped in three classes. Fires in wood, paper, cloth and the like are called Class A fires. These materials usually help keep the fire on. Such fires can be sto pped most readily by cooling with water.44．If a fire breaks out on a bus, which of the follow should b e ready there for you to use?A.SandB.WaterC.A blanket.D.An extinguisher. 45．To cover a small piece of burning wood with a basin in or der to stop the fire is an example of _______.A.separating the fireB.reducing the heatC.removing the fuelD.cutting off the oxygen46．In choosing how to put out a fire, we should first be clear about_______.A.when it breaks outB.how it comes aboutC.what kind it isD.where it takes place47．What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A.Another class of firesB.Another type of extinguishersC.How fires break out.D.How fires can be prevented.(D)It is love that makes the world go round. And it is also love tha t has such power to overcome all difficulties. So we say: “Lov e will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing plea sure, affection, and friendliness, it is the commonest way to s how our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chines e saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own— a univers al language—understood by the people of every nation in the world. We ma y not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus ex pressing love, happiness, or good will.One day while shopping in a small town in southern , it was m y misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality c ontradicted mine. He seemed most unfriendly and not at all co ncerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My anger toward that grew w ith each step. Outside, standing at the corner, was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties. His expressive b rown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beauti ful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave in immediately. Th e magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterne ss within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isn’t it?” I remarked, in passing. Th en, suddenly something inside me sent me turning back. “I re ally owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepe ned, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman a nd two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” sh e volunteered. “You want I should tell him something?” In that moment I felt transformed. Carlos’ smile had made a big pers on of me. My friendliness and good will toward all mankind sto od ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said ‘Thank you!’”“Thank you?” The woman seeme d slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell hi m that,” I insisted. “He’ll understand. I am sure!” Oh, what a s mile can do! Although I have never seen that young man agai n, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning. From that day on, I became smile – conscious, and I practice t hat diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody. Wh en I got excited in traffic, taking the right–of–way (公路用地) from the other car with my stupid mistake, I’d smile and sh rug my shoulders apologetically. This action on my part would always draw a good–natured smile in return. If the other fellow was at fault – and if I could remember my resolution in time! –he’d get a broad sm ile of understanding. This took a bit of doing at first. I’ll admit it wasn’t always easy, but it was fun. The results were sometim es amazing. Many times, a broad, friendly smile would compl etely turn aside ill–feeling and tension. I’m wondering now how many tragic accid ents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways, if every driver remembered to smile!40．The author got angry while shopping one day because .A.of the clerk’s unfriendliness and lack of concernB.of her misfortuneC.she failed to purchase what she intendedD.a dark–complexion young man laughed at her40．A【解析】细节理解题。

AIn 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue(烤肉) restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new idea: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity(一致性), for the brothers had developed a strict routine(程序) for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became surprisingly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the special attraction of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营) other copies of their restaurants. The agreement included the right to duplicate(复制) the menu, the equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today McDonald’s is really a household name. In 1976, McDonald’s had over $ l billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most surprising success stories in modern American business history.56. This passage mainly talks about _______.A. the development of fast food servicesB. how McDonald’s became a billion-dollar businessC. the business careers of Mac and Dick McDonaldD. Ray Kroc’s business talent57. Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses except _______.A. a drive-inB. a theaterC. a cinemaD. a barbecue restaurant58. We may infer from this passage that _______.A. Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to Kroc.B. the place the McDonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-inC. forty years ago there were lots of fast-food restaurantsD.

Simon didn’t bother his teacher to revise French.B. Basically, Simon did a good job in science.C. Simon is a determined learner in English.D. Simon is able to pay attention to history for long.CDo you know what really troubles me? For some reason, words with silent letters have always bothered me. For example, consider these words: know, design, island, school, wrist, naughty, and salmon. All of these words have at least one letter thatis not typically pronounced, and these words are just a very small part of words with silent letters in them.Some words are even worse, consider this word: colonel. Not only are some letters not pronounced, but letters that are not even there are pronounced.Even foreign languages, especially French, are guilty of this needless complexity and confusion. I know there must be some main historical reasons why the words are spelled and pronounced the way they are, but that does not mean bad traditions mustcontinue to survive. Especially if they are no longer logical.Unfortunately, there is very little that anyone can do for i t, because there’s no group of people who can change or have the right to change the English language for everyone. However, the only thing we can do is make changes in the way we talk and write in hopes that it catches on. For example, I pronounce the let ter “l” in salmon on purpose to make people annoyed and to sound more different or complicated.I even pronounce colonel the correct or French way.I can only hope these two minor changes to the English language make sense to you, and you will help to keep up these minor changes forever in your everyday life.64. Which of the following is the main reason for silent letters?A. French language.B. Historical reasons.C. Some linguistsD. Bad traditions.65. The underlined phrase “catches on” probably means “________”.A. becomes popularB. gets acrossC. follows the fashionsD. doesn’t fall behind66. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Troubles in everyday lifeB. Traps in English wordsC. Words with silent lettersD. Necessary changes of languagesDAttempt a guess at the following question: In the English-speaking world, which country has the least affordable homes? You are wrong if you guessed the US, even with the housing bubble （气泡） and main sadness. Nor is it the UK, where prices have risen because demand is far from supply. According to a recent survey of 227 cities around the globe, you must go south of the equator （赤道） to Australia to find the priciest homes．The report meas ured a city’s housing market along the following guidelines. An “affordable” home required three times or less of the average family’s income to purchase. At four times earnings, a home fell into the “unaffordable” category. And a “seriously unaffordable” home needed five times a family’s income. In Australia, homes in the least affordable city cost just about 9.5 times the average income. Sydney, Perth, and Melbourne were only a little under this figure．Australian officials offered little comment, apart from a general statement on the dismal findings. These prices make the possibility that many Australians will one day own a home largely unbelievable. Land rationing （配给制） and excessive development charges have raised prices, and the problem will only be solved through urgent action by the Rudd government．Some American cities were also included on the least affordable list, four of which were in California. America is still involved in a mortgage（抵押）crisis,though, affecting the affordability of homes. Yet a number of US cities garnered “affordable” status, namely Dallas and Kansas. Australia had no cities listed in the top fifty places with affordable homes．The survey suggests that you can find affordable homes in most places, just notif you’re Australian and choose to live down under．67. To buy an affordable house, you should pay _____．A. 3 times or less of the average family’s incomeB. 4 times or less of the average family’s incomeC. 5 times or less of the average family’s incomeD. 9.5 times or less of the average family’s income68. What caused the prices of houses to increase in Australia?A．The rising family’s income． B．The demand over supply.C．The excessive development charges． D．The decrease of land．69.The underlined word “dismal” in Paragraph 3 may mean _____．A． cheerful B． satisfactory C． difficult D．sad70. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A． Affordable Houses B． A House is a Dream FirstC． Housing Bubble D． Homes Too Expensive 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。

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEETPassage OneA few centuries ago, people looked at the birds and wondered what it would be like to fly like them. There were stories of heroes who glued bird feathers on their arms and flew up into the sky.About 500 years ago, some people dreamed a different dream. Instead of flying up to the sky. they dreamed of falling from the sky!In the 15th century, Italian inventors designed a cone-shaped (锥形）device that was supposed to bring a man down safely from a great height. The operator held on to a handle with straps strapped to his waist. This was the first known design for a parachute (降落伞）.Even the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci sketched a type of parachute. His parachute design was in the shape of a pyramid (金字塔). Other inventors also sketched their own designs for a parachute. Unfortunately, these were only designs on paper andno one tested them.A Croatian inventor named Fausto Veranzio looked at Leonardo da Vinci's parachute design and replaced the pyramid shape with one that looked like a sail from a ship. When Veranzio was 65 years old. he fell ill. Thinking he would not live longer, he decided to try out his parachute invention. He built his parachute using wood and cloth. Strapping his invention to his waist, he jumped off the tall bell lower in his city. Helanded safely! He was supposedly the first man to successfully use a parachute. However, some people thought this story was not true. If that was the case, then the first person to successfully usea parachute would go to a Frenchman named Louis-Sebastien Lenormand in 1783.16.The first known parachute was designed by ________________________________.A.FrenchmenB.ItaliansC. CroatiansD. Englishmen17.Leonardo da Vinci's parachute was shaped like a ________________________________ .A. coneB. featherC. pyramidD. sail18.Which of the following about Fausto Veranzio is true?A.He copied da Vinci's parachute design.B.He made his parachute with leather and wood.C.He experimented with his parachute many times.D.He decided to try his parachute after he was seriously ill.19.As for the first man who successfully used a parachute. ________________________________ .A.it was said to be Leonardo da VinciB we know for sure he was VeranzioC.there were some historical recordsD.we don't know for sure yet20.The passage is mainly about ___________________________ .A.the origin of the parachuteB. the dreams of flying and fallingC.the courage of dropping from the skyD.the application of parachute inventionPassage TwoOut of all the students who enroll in a massive open online course (MOOC), only about 5 percent complete the course and receive a certificate of accomplishment. This statistic is often cited as evidence that MOOCs are fatally flawed(有缺陷的) and offer little educational value to moststudents. Yet more than 80 percent of students who fill out a post-course survey say they met their primary objective. How do we look at these two facts?We're used to focusing on completion rates in higher education, but they're not the only-or even the most meaningful-indicator of engagement in open online courses. With no cost to enroll, no punishment for dropping out. and little reward for actually earning a certificate. MOOCs arc fundamentally different from traditional classes-and students use them in fundamentally different ways.Data from more than 1.8 million enrolled in 36 MOOCs offered by the University of Pennsylvania show that students treat MOOCs like a buffet(自助餐)， sampling the material according to their interests and career goals. Some are curious about the subject matter and just watch one or two video lectures; others use the discussion forums to connect with their intellectual peer , around the world. Of all enrolled students, nearly 60 percent watch at least one video, complete at least one assignment, or post at least once in a forum.So focusing on the tiny fraction of students who complete a MOOC is misguided. The more important number is the 60 percent engagement rate. Students may not finish a MOOC with a certificate of accomplishment, but the courses nonetheless meet the educational goals of millions.21. What do we learn about MOOCs from Para.1 ?A.There seems to be conflicting statistics about MOOCs.B.It turns out that MOOCs have failed people's expectations.C.Most students find it hard to judge the value of MOOCs.D.The educational value of MOOCs is well acknowledged.22. In Para. 2, the author stresses __________________ .A.the primary objective of MOOC studentsB.the significance of completion rates in educationC.the strengths and weaknesses of open online coursesD.the differences between MOOCs and traditional classes23. According to Para. 3. students choose MOOCs for the following reasons EXCEPT_____.A.earning a certificateB.improving job-related skillsC. meeting their interest in the subjectsD. exchanging ideas with students worldwide24. The sentence "students treat MOOCs as a buffet " (Para. 3) ___________________________ .A.emphasizes the core value of MOOCsB.demonstrates the daily operation of MOOCsC.indicates students are free to choose MOOC resourcesD.explains what students learn from MOOC courses25. What is the author's attitude toward MOOCs?A.Critical.B.Supportive.C.Indifferent.D.Neutral.Passage ThreeWhether you are hiking through the magnificent redwoods of Northern California, sleeping under the brilliant stars of the Texas sky, or watching the sun rise across the rocky cliffs of Maine, experiencing the outdoor world can be inspiring, thrilling, and deeply satisfying. And one of the best ways to enjoy the abundant gifts of the natural world is simple, inexpensive, and available to almost everyone. Let's go camping!When you camp，you create a “home away from home” in the fresh air. You don’t need a lot of fancy equipment to enjoy camping. What you need is simply a tent large enough for your family. Practice setting up the tent at home to make sure you are familiar with the process before you go camping.Once you find a good site, it's time to set up camp. Your first job is to set up your tent. Remove all sticks and rocks from the area. Spread a tarp(防水帆布)over the area where your tent will sit. Set up the tent and be sure to stake it down firmly, even if the weather is mild. Otherwise, strong wind can blow your tent away.Next, you’ll need some firewood for a campfire. It gathering wood is illegal at your campground, you must buy it at the camp store. It gathering dead wood is permitted, go on a firewood-hunting journey and bring in a good supply of wood for your campsite. Pile the wood safely away from the campfire ring and where no one will trip over the wood or hurt his or her legs on sharp branches.Being a responsible camper requires that you follow the rules of the campground. Do not burn food or plastic in your campfire. Make sure that you leave your campsite in good condition for the next campers. Just before leaving the site, make a final check to be certain that your campfire is completely out. Pour water on the ashes just to be sale!26. As is suggested by the author, you should practice setting up your tentA.before the weather turns badB.before your first camping tripC.after having selected your campsiteD.once you have decided here to go27. What is the first thing you should do alter choosing a campsite?A.Gather firewood.B.Spread a trap on the ground.C.Set up the tent.D.Remove sticks and rocks from the tent area.28. You can gather firewood only ______________________ .A.after you are sure that it is permittedB.after you are certain that no one will get hurtC.if there is no camp store nearbyD.if firewood is out of stock in a camp store29. The last thing you should do before leaving your campsite isA.bum all the trashB.clean the campsiteC.pour water on the ashesD. collect all the rubbish30.The passage is mainly about __________________________ .A.safety measures a camper should takeB.problems you may face as a camperC.what you need to know about campingD.what you need to bring along for campingPassage FourEvery country has secret services to help protect it against serious threats from terrorists, major criminals or even from other countries. People who threaten to harm a country always plot in secret, so the intelligence agencies have to work in secret to find out what is being planned before it happens, so that it can be prevented. They do that in many different ways一by secretly listening to their targets talking on the phone. by planting microphones to overhear meetings, by watching the targets as they move from place to place and by recruiting some of the targets to act as double agents to report on what is going on.For most of my career I worked in one of the UK's three intelligence services, MI5, the domestic security service. I first joined in the 1970s, in the middle of the Cold War,when the world was divided into two armed camps, the Soviet Union (前苏联) and its allies on the one side and Western Europe, America and their allies on the other. The Cold War never became a fighting war. It was an intelligence war, with intelligence officers from both sides trying to find out what the other side was doing, what kind of weapons they had, when and if they might start a war and what their plans were. Both sides were secretly working in each other's countries.Nowadays one of the biggest threats to the world comes from terrorists. Intelligence officers from many different countries are working together to find out who they are, where they are and what they are planning. Today's MI5 officers get theirintelligence in much the same way as we did during the Cold War, but their task is even more difficult and urgent because most terrorists "want to kill people. Many terroristattacks that are planned and prepared never happen, and we never know anything about them because the intelligence sendees find them out and prevent them.31. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.The tasks of intelligence agencies.B.The contributions of intelligence agencies.C.The equipment used by intelligence agents.D.The recruitment of intelligence agents.32. The biggest security threats for Britain in the 1970s were from_______.A.international terroristsB.the Soviet Union and its alliesC.major criminals within the countryD.agents working for both camps33. What is true about the Cold War?A.Both camps were planning to start a war.B.It was a war fought with advanced weapons.C.No fierce clash broke out during the period.D.It is not regarded as an intelligence war.34. MI5 officers' task is more urgent today in thatA.terrorists arc more difficult to find than spies.B.most terrorist attacks are aimed at killing peopleC.terrorist attacks happen more frequently than beforeD.it takes only a little time to prepare a terrorist attack35. The best title for the passage might be"_____________".A.Ways of Gathering IntelligenceB.National Defense Against All ThreatsC.Which Is More Threatening: Terrorists Or Spies?D.What We Do As Intelligence OfficersPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Some fresh fruits are highly ______ and should be kept in cool places.A. perishableB. eligibleC. permissibleD. affordableRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items II, IV, V.(1) A rift is growing between government and higher education, with debates over funding, missions and accountability.(2) In that context, it is all the more worth watching Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, who assumes the presidency of Purdue University on January 14. Other governors have become college presidents. Some, like Tom K ean, have been very successful. However, Daniels—who brings to the job an unusual blend of leadership experiences in government at the state and national level, public policy,business, and now academe—is coming to office at a time of unusual tension.(3) Governors increasingly characterize the rising costs of higher education and its limitedaccess as unsustainable. Many find it imperative that universities increase their productivity, affordability, access, graduation rates, and accountability. In contrast, university presidents say that quality, not cost, is the real issue in an era in which excellence in higher educationis more urgent than ever before in history. The question, academic leaders say, should not bethe price of college, but who pays, criticizing government for disinvesting in higher education. Bottom line: Between the governors and the presidents, there is increasingly little if any common ground other than recognizing the importance of higher education. They have entirely differentviews of the problem, no agreement on responsibility, and nothing in the way of a shared solution. (4) In his first public action as president of Purdue, Daniels has bridged the chasm with a salary package that incorporates the goals of both the governors and the presidents. He did this intwo ways. The first was conciliatory, eliminating the red flag that sets off both governmentand the academy: He rejected presidential salary inflation. His salary package is smaller than his predecessor’s, placing him tenth among the 12 Big Ten university presidents in terms of salary. There is no deferred compensation.(5) Second, and more importantly in terms of national models, is that Governor Daniels askedfor a salary based upon achieving his goals for the university. The package is divided into twobuckets—base salary and bonus. The bonus is tied to graduation rates, affordability, studentachievement, philanthropic support, faculty excellence, and strategic program initiatives. Inestablishing this bonus system, Daniels married traditional notions of academic quality—as measured by excellence in faculty, programs and resources—with an equal emphasis on effective outcomes and price controls: graduation rates, affordability, and student achievement.(6) In so doing, Daniels has demonstrated his belief that there is common ground to be foundbetween the university and government. The choice is not quality or effectiveness, not excellenceor affordability; the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game in which one side winsand the other loses. Rather, he believes it is possible to balance the seemingly conflictinggoals of government and higher education.(7) Daniels is not the first president to have his salary tied to achieving institutional goals, but he is probably the most visible. Moreover, although Daniels is renouncing involvement inpartisan politics as he enters the Purdue presidency, he is a former Republican governor andparty leader known as a frugal fiscal conservative. Historically, the divisions have been greater between Republicans and the academy than has been the case with Democrats. In a very real sense, what Daniels has chosen to do is somewhat akin to Nixon going to China. He has undertaken anexperiment to be closely watched. If successful, he will have established a potential model forthe country.(8) Typically, presidents reserve such powerful statements for their inaugural addresses. Though such addresses are sincere in intent—I can vouch for that, as someone who has given two andlistened to many more—they are generally aspirational; they articulate hopes and dreams forwhat an institution can become. Daniels has already done something very different. He is putting himself on the line in a very public fashion. Year after year his salary will be determined byhis success. And perhaps even more importantly, his success or failure will be public when hisboard announces the size and rationale for his bonus.(9) It’s a bold step—and Governor Daniels should be applauded for taking it.II.

Why Are Students Turned Off(1)Ellen Glanz lied to her teacher about why she hadn’t done her homework ; but, of course, many students have lied to their teachers. The difference is that Ellen Glanz was a twenty –eight – year –old high school social studies teacher who was a student for six months to improve her teaching by gaining a fresh perspective of her school.(2)She found many classes boring, students doing as little as necessary to pass tests and get good grades,students using ruses (借口) to avoid assignments, and students manipulating teachers to dothe work for them. She concluded that many students are turned off because they have little power and responsibility for their own education.(3)Ellen Glanz found herself doing the same things as the students. There was the day when Glanz wanted to join her husband in helping friends celebrate the purchase of a house, but she had homework for a math class. For the first time, she knew how teenagers feel when they think something is more important than homework.(4)She found a way out and confided:“I considered my options: Confess openly to the teacher, copy someone else’s sheet, or make up an excuse.〞Glanz chose the third option- the one most widely used – and told the teacher that the pages needed to complete the assignment had been ripped from the book. The teacher accepted the story, never checking the book. In class, nobody else did the homework; and student after student mumbled responses when called upon.(5)“Finally,〞Glanz said,“the teacher, thinking that the assignment must have been difficult, went over each question at the board while students copied the problems at their seats. The teacher had ‘covered’ the material and the students had listened to the explanation. But had anything been learne d I don’t think so.〞(6)Glanz found this kind of thing common. “In many classes,〞she said, “people simply didn’t do the work assignment, but copied from someone else or nanipulated the teacher into doing the work for them.〞(7)“The system encourages incredible passivity,〞Glanz said. “In most classes one sits and listens.A teacher,whose role is activity, simply cannot understand the passivity of the student’s role,〞she said.“When I taught,〞Glanz recalled,“my mind was going constantly – figuring out how to best present an idea, thinking about whom to call on, whom to draw out, whom to shut up; how to get students involved, how to make my point clearer, how to respond; when to be funny, when serious. As a student, I experienced little of this.Everything was done to me.〞(8)Class methods promote the feeling that students have little control over or responsibility for their own education because the agenda is the teacher’s, Glanz said. The teacher is convinced the subject matter is worth knowing, but the student may not agree. Many students, Glanz said, are not convinced they need to know what teachers teach; but they believe good grades are needed to get into college.(9)Students, obsessed with getting good grades to help qualify for the college of their choice , believe the primary responsibility for their achievement rests with the teacher, Glanz said. “It was his responsibility to teach well rather than their responsibility to learn carefully.〞(10)Teachers were regarded by students, Glanz said, not as “people,〞but as “role - players〞who dispensed information needed to pass a test. “I often heard students describing teachers as drips,bores, and numerous varieties of idiots,〞she said.“Yet I knew that many of the same people had traveled the world over,conducted fascinating experiments or learned three languages, or were accomplished musicians, artists, or athletes.〞(11)But the sad reality, Glanz said, is the failure of teachers to recognize their tremendous communications gap with students. Some students, she explained, believe that effort has little value. Some have heard reports of unemployment among college graduates and others, and after seeing political corruption they conclude that honesty takes a back seat to getting ahead any way one can, she said.“I sometimes estimated that half to two – thirds of a class cheated on a given test,〞Glanz said. “Worse, I’ve encountered students who feel no remorse(自责)about cheating but are annoyed that a teacher has confronted them on their actions.〞(12)Glanz has since returned to teaching at Lincoln – Sudbury. Before her period as a student, she would worry that perhaps she was demanding too much. “Now I know I should have demanded more,〞she said.Before, she was quick to accept the excuses of students who came to class unprepared. Now she says, “You are responsible for learning it.〞But a crackdown is only a small part of the solution.(13)The larger issue, Glanz said, is that educators must recognize that teachers and students, though physically in the same school, are in separate worlds and have an on – going power struggle.“A first step toward ending this battle is to convince students that what we attempt to teach them is genuinely worth knowing,〞Glanz said. “We must be sure, ourselves, that what we are teaching is worth knowing.〞No longer, she emphasized, do students assume that “teacher knows best.〞Ⅳ. There are ten incomplete statements, followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and write the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. (10points, 1 point for each)55.
