Do you think t 省略...正确答案：The impact of television on family relationshipMany people think that TV can't teach you anything and most TV programs are just silly. True, there are a lot of shows that are anything but good. But if you watch, you will find that TV is still a powerful educational tool. With the emergence of the public TV in our country we now have more helpings of food for the mind. Take the travelogue "the world we live in" it provides us not only with vicarious travel experience but also with the histories and cultures of various nations. Spec live, what they wear and how they talk even though I can’t afford to travel to those countries. My family often sit together to watch a program and discuss it afterward. Sometimes my parents ask us what we would do in a similar situation and this gives us the opportunity to rethink. We should not forget that TV can be an excellent teacher. In this era of mass media we believe that TV, if guided into the right channel, can really fire our imagination and contribute to family cohesion.2、Write a memo based on the following information.

You may include the ideas given below.1. Problems on the quality of education 2. Possible ca省略...正确答案：How to improve the quality of educationHas always been in the mid of heated discussion of people from all walks of life. And more specificallly, whether increasing teacher’s salaries is the best way to improve the quality of education is something at issue. Some think it contributes a lot to a high-standard education, while others think it only improve s the standards of teachers’ life, but not necessarily that of education.For me, I insist that increasing teacher’s salaries is the best way to improve the quality of education.Firstly, in response of some people’s concern that it will only improve the teachers’ living standards, I think that most teachers have a strong sense of responsibility. So for the majority of the teachers, once they can get a satisfactory salary and achieve a comfortable life, they will concentrate more on how to improve their teaching methodology and better impart the knowledge to students. In this way can the overall quality of education be improved.Secondly, higher salary means more prominence and higher social status given to teacher as a profession. In terms of that, more people would like to become a teacher, thus intensifying the competition for the each teaching position. As a result, the whole nation can have a more strict selecting process to recruit only the most outstanding candidates. In addition, the society as a whole will pay more attention to the teacher-recruiting process, and more censorship with no doubt ensures that only the best ones can be selected as teachers. Through a social point of view, improving the salaries also contributes a lot to improving the quality of education.In a word, from a perspective of both teachers themselves and also the social censorship, increasing teachers’ salaries is certainly the best approach to enhance the quality of education.4、Write a passage on how to overcome difficulties in my English studies.

The passage should be about 120 words. Your passage may be based on the following inform省略...正确答案：How to improve the quality of educationHow to improve the quality of education is a hot topic in our society. Some people say that high school students should be encouraged to evaluate and criticize their teachers. But some other people disagree with such a method, which will result in loss of respect and discipline in the classroom. In this essay, I would like to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this method and give some suggestions.There are lots of merits to encourage students to express their opinions openly in the classroom. One of reasons is that such action can give teachers more pressure, which will makes them work harder and try their best to reduce mistakes. For example, teachers should be more careful and responsible of what they are teaching and read more books to enrich their knowledge. The other reason lies in these evaluations will give students more freedom, courage, and confidence, which will influence them positively in a long term. There is lots of obvious evidence by comparing the educational system in western countries and that in China. The first one encourages the evaluation, under which most of the students are more confident and brave. But most of the students under Chinese educational system are coward and lack of the courage to express their opinions.But like every coin has two sides, the open criticism and evaluation will produce lots of bad influences. The first shortcoming is these actions will incur mess and discipline in the classroom. For instance, students may insult their teachers in the process of evaluation, which is the sign of unrespectable action. The other drawback is that some teachers may be pay more attention to the pleasure of students rather than teaching quality, which will do harm to the development of pupils.In my opinion, I support the encouragement of open evaluation, though youths should be careful of the degree by which all the students should abide. Also we can find that the critical system pay more emphasizes on the aspect of teachers rather than the students. We know that the improvement of educational quality lies in the efforts from both students and teachers, so both of them should work in groups to enhance the quality of education.。

Chinese students and academicsC. the crisis on economic growthD. A strong research systemE. in part because of thisEducation and academic quality can mean different things to different people, depending on their perspective, role and context and, E, quality is notoriously difficult to evaluate. The question of how to do this has been pursued for many years.Nevertheless, the goal of improving educational quality is agreed by all and stimulated further by the recent worldwide economic downturn and the need to counteract the impact of C and prepare for economic recovery.As the World Bank and UNESCO said 10 years ago: “The quality of knowledge generated within higher education institutions, and its availability to the wider economy, is becoming increasingly critical to national competitiveness.”They also rightly emphasized that “D at the national level opens up the possibility that substantial additional public benefits can be realized through international links.”This is precisely why B should contribute to these global benefits, reforming and improving evaluation systems for educational and academic quality. Original and good research, especially in science, economics and social sciences, has a trickle-down effect on society. And it offers additional benefits A, though international collaboration and exchange of the best evaluation policy and practice can bring substantial advantages to all partners in relation to lessons learned elsewhere.选择题（每题10分）正误判断题Liu Hui and Molly are discussing the issue of educational quality at a workshop.Liu Hui: Hi, Molly. Today's topic is educational quality. First, what does educational quality mean to you?Molly: As far as I'm concerned, quality education means good learning standards in educational institutions. So, educational quality ensures a desirable outcome for learners.Liu Hui: Sounds like after some serious thinking. However, many definitions of quality in education exist, testifying to the complexity and multifaceted nature of the concept.Molly: Definitely, establishing a contextualized understanding of quality means including relevant stakeholders. Key stakeholders often hold different views and meanings of educational quality.Liu Hui: There are many prestigious universities in the US. They all provide high-quality education. But some universities aren't known for their quality. It's hard to imagine the gap.Molly: Yes, in the US the quality in higher education is quite mixed. Universities like Harvard, Yale, MIT, etc., you know, are well-known all over the world. However, there are some institutions providing poor education, so called “diploma mills”.Liu Hui: In China, we have similar issues in educational quality. Some universities pay more attention to profits instead of quality.Molly: How to improve educational quality is an international issue. But, solutions are grounded in values, cultures and traditions and may be specific to a given nation as well.1. Molly thinks that educational quality ensures a satisfactory outcome for learners. T2. Liu Hui disagrees with Molly on the meaning of education quality. F3. All universities in the U.S. offer high-quality education.F4. Diploma mills cannot provide high-quality education. T5. In China, there isn't any diploma mill. F选择题（每题10分）选择题Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）.“Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits, ”says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health.Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health. This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ（智商）by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding.Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. SoHorta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests. Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breast-fed the longest stayed in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.1. From the passage, we learn that Horta AA. is from Brazil2. Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT mentioned? BB. They were happier3. Which of the following is TRUE? CC. Horta's research project lasted about 30 years4. The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to CC. polluted5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage? CC. Breast-feeding Improves Chances of Success。

He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead, Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete (运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”1. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in 1 .A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. Oklahoma2. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT 2 .A. fishingB. singingC. swimming3.

I've been living in the country for more than 10 years. It means quietness, privacy, harmony and peace for me.Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve. I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this community I can’t say enough.I really enjoy living the country life. I know it’s not for everyone, butI know it's for me.1. The author has lived in the countryside for more than a decade, and he/she loves living there. 12. Living in the country is not busy at all. 23.

First, what do you mean by educational inequality?Dr. Smith: Educational inequality is the disparity that certain students experience in their education as compared to other students. But the meaning of it varies in different social contexts.Liu Hui: Why does it exist in modern society?Dr. Smith: Well, researchers link educational inequality to socioeconomic, racial and geographic reasons.Liu Hui: So it is very likely that educational inequality exists in different forms in different countries.Dr. Smith: Yeah, you are right. For example, in the United States, although skin color is linked to other forms of inequality, it is evident in education.Liu Hui: Educational inequality exists in China, too. For example, the college entrance rate is much higher in Beijing than in other provinces. How do you think can we someday eradicate the inequality?Dr. Smith: It's impossible to answer such a big question in few words. Educational inequality has become one of the most important political and social issues in every nation nowadays. There have been numerous attempts at reforms and.....1.

Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）.“Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feedinghas long-term benefits, ” says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health.Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health. This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ（智商）by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding.Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests. Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breast-fed the longest stayed in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.1. From the passage, we learn that Horta 1 .A. is from BrazilB. conducts his research in the U.S.C. has 30 researchers on his team2.

Maggie Walker was born in 1867 in Richmond, Virginia. Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman's house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home. Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school. She was a very good student, especially in math.After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a job as a teacher. In 1886, she married Armistead Walker. They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them. She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead. Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization. The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other.Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization. In 1895, she suggested that St. Luke begin a program for young people. This program became very popular with schoolchildren. In 1899, Walk became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization. However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St. Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over.

About 95 percent of lawyers still perform their legal work on an hourly basis. If you want something better than the old “bill by the hour” deal, try presenting one of these billing structures.Project billing for routine issuesIf your legal needs include large but repetitive tasks, consider a flat-fee approach. Once you get a project billing estimate, don't hesitate to shop around to compare prices and services with other law firms. A firm may provide a betterdeal if it expects future work from your company.Results-oriented options“Pay-according-to-success” is one choice. It considers fees based on the outcome of the case and the performance of your counsel. Contingency fees turn the matter into a shared risk or shared encouragement, making the law firm your business partner, not just representation.Multi-layered tasksIf you're shopping for a firm for actual legal work involving a number of legal specialties, consider using blended hourly fees. The firm calculates in advance an “average” rate based on the anticipated time each lawyer spends on the matter.This arrangement helps the client to avoid paying a senior partner's hourly rate for research that should be conducted by a junior associate.Legal “Insurance”The contract fee allows the client to pick up the phone and talk to the lawyer without needing to eye the clock. This approach works like a legal insurance policy. It encourages companies to contact their counsel on non-litigation, non-crisis matters, and to save money in the long run by engaging in more preventive legal action.1. 1 is the best way to be charged for legal services.A.
