Complete the following passage with the words or phrases in the box. Each can only be used once（将下列单词或词组填入空格，每空格限填一词，每词只能填一次）（共8分）speaking and what you wish to ___46___ by your speech. The four most common purposes of speech are to inform, to convince, to move to action, and to entertain. Do you, like a teacher or an expert in a field, wish to illustrate your ideas in detail to people unfamiliar with your subject so that they can understand your ideas clearly and thoroughly? Or, like a debater, with to ___47___ the judges or the audience? Or, like a fund collector for a naturalist foundation, wish to get money? Or, like a comedian or after-dinner speaker, wish to ___48___? The language and tone you use must be proper for your purpose, for your audience, and for the occasion. A speech to the graduating class will have quite different language, tone and manner from information delivered to a group of your friends.Furthermore, however talented the speaker is, a talk without enough preparation is usually a failure. To speak without preparing is to ____49____ without taking aim. Decide what your aim or objective is; then state it in a complete topic sentence. Make sure that your subject is definite andnot too broad.Camping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and, at its best, it makes little environmental influence. But with ___50___ numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness, it is becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively and leave no mark.Wild camping is not permitted in many places, ___51___ in crowded lowland Britain. Wherever you are, find out about organizations ___52___ for managing wild spaces, and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building. For example, it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland, but in England you must ask the landowner’s permission, except in national parks.Camping is about having relaxation, sleeping outdoors, ___53___ bad weather, and making food without modern conveniences. A busy, fully-equipped campsite seems to go against this, so seek out smaller, more remote places with easy access to open spaces and perhaps beaches. Better still, find a campsite with no road access: walking in makes a real adventure.46.E 47. B 48. C 49. A50. C 51. E 52. B 53. DⅣ.

Almost eleven percent of the studentsaged 3～21 in this country have an impairment that affects their ability to benefit from a regulareducation program. Handicapped students require special education because they are often markedly different from most children in one or more of the following ways: mentally retarded(发展迟缓的), learning-disabled, emotionally disturbed, deaf, visually handicapped, physicallyhandicapped, or other health impairments. The education of these handicapped children is rewarding but challenging.A special education student usually needs a longer period of time to acquire information. Repetitive teaching techniques are often beneficial, and indefatigable(孜孜不倦的) consistency onthe part of the teacher is frequently necessary. Interactive videodisc courseware has characteristics that can be capitalized upon to meet the challenges that special education poses. A videodisc program is infinitely patient. Repetition of any videodisc lesson can continue endlessly, and designers can assure absolute consistency within a program. Most important, according to special educator William Healey of the University of Arizona, is that videodisc “adds an extra dimension of realism for children who need graphic rep resentations”.Healey explained that deaf and mentally retarded children especially have difficulty grasping figurative (比喻的) language and higher-order language concepts. He believes that for specialeducation, the power of videodisc lies in the ability of the technology to visually represent language concepts normally taken for granted by non-handicapped persons. Complex figurative language forms such as idioms and metaphors come most readily to mind as being difficult for handicapped learners.74. The word“impairment”（Line 3, Para. 1）probably means _______.A. habitB. disabilityC. misconceptionD. belief75. Which of the following teaching techniques is beneficial to the handicapped students?A. Task-based methodB. Inquiry-Based LearningC. Cooperative LearningD. Repetitive teaching technique76. The special education mentioned in the passage is mainly concerned with _______.A. genius students from day-care centers to collegesB. students who are fond of computer video gamesC. students who are either mentally or physically disabledD. teachers of language in the University of Arizona77. A videodisc courseware is beneficial to those who have study difficulties because ______.A. its fancy design is very attractiveB. it allows the user to go back to where he wants to restudyC. the content of it is healthy and promisingD. it is developed by university professors78. According to Professor Healey, we may infer that mentally retarded children perhaps _____.A. need graphic representations in order to understand higher-order language conceptsB. are good at studying English idioms but often fail to grasp higher order language conceptsC. are not very patient with videodisc which helps them to understand the world conceptsD. tend to be deal as well and have difficulty learning the simple concept“before and after”79. The best phrase that summarize the main idea of the passage is ___.A. handicapped students and their problemsB. videodisc and special educationC. computer assisted teaching programsD. normal children and handicapped kids答案：74.

But when the bell for the next class rings, you can’t ____79____ how quickly time has passed.If you are famil iar with this scene, you’ll know how time flies when you are having fun and drags when you are bored. Now scientists have come up with a reason why this is the case.Scans have shown that patterns of activity in the brain change according to how we focus on a task. When we are bored, we concentrate more on how time is passing. And this makes our brains _____80__ the clock is ticking more slowly.In an experiment ____81___ by a French laboratory, 12 volunteers watched an image whileresearchers monitored their brain activity.The volunteers were told to _____82__ concentrate on how long an image appeared for, then ____83___ the color of the image, and thirdly, study both duration and color.

Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文）（12分）The continuous presentation of frightening stories about global warming in the popular media makes us unnecessarily frightened. Even worse, it ___80___ our kids.Al Gore famously described how a sea-level rise of 20 feet would almost completely flood Florida, New York, Holland, and Shanghai, even though the United Nations says that such a thing will not even happen, estimating that sea levels will rise 20 times less than that.When faced with these exaggerations (夸大), some of us say that they are for a good cause,and surely there is no harm done if the result is that we focus even more on tacking climate change.This argument is astonishingly wrong. Such exaggerations do plenty of harm. Worrying excessively about global warming means that we worry less about other things, where we could doso much more good. We focus, ___81___, on glob al warming’s impact on malaria (疟疾)—whichwill put slightly more people at ___82___ in 100 years—instead of tacking the half a billion people suffering from malaria today with prevention and treatment policies that are much cheaper and dramatically more effective than carbon reduction would be.Exaggeration also wears out the public’s ___83___ to cope with global warming. If the planet is certain to be destroyed owing to global warming, people wonder, why do anything? A record 54%of American voters now believe the news media make global warming appear worse than it really is. A majority of people now believe –incorrectly –that global warming is not even caused by humans.But the ___84___ cost of exaggeration, I believe, is the unnecessary alarm that it causes –particularly among children. An article in The Washington Post cited nine-year-old Alyssa, who cries about the possibility of mass animal extinction from global warming.The newspaper also reported that parents are taking over effective outlets for their 8-year-olds’ concern with dying polar bears. They might be better off educating them and letting them know that,related to common belief, the global polar bear population has doubled over the past half-century, to about 22,000. ___85___ the possible disappearing of summer Arctic ice, polar bears will not become extinct.80.
