For months, the two armies had been staying on opposite banks of a narrow river. The Confederate(南方联盟) troops were led by perhaps (1) (honored) military tactician(战略家) in American history, General Robert E. Lee. The Union (北方联盟)soldiers were led by "Fighting" Joe Hooker. In appearance, personality, and lifestyle, these men were nearly perfect opposites. Lee, an older man in poor health with a gray beard, had a solemn, measured character. Hooker was a blond, broad﹣shouldered young man (2) pride over his appearance was but one aspect of his self﹣centeredness. Whereas Lee was loyal and principled, Hooker was known for his rollicking enjoyment of both women and whiskey. Despite the fact that the Confederacy (3) (win) the last four major battles and the Union soldiers were starving, (4) (exhaust), and demoralized, Hooker proclaimed, "My plans are perfect. And when I start to carry them out, (5) God have mercy on Bobby Lee, for I shall have none." Why was Hooker so confident? Hooker had used spies, analysts, and even hot air balloons to compile a vast amount of intelligence about Lee's army. He had already been aware, for example, (6) Lee had only 61,000men to Hooker's own 134,000. Supported by his superior numbers, Hooker secretly moved 70,000of his men fifteen miles up and across the river, and then ordered them to sneak back down to position themselves (7) Lee's army. In effect, Hooker had cut off the Confederate soldiers in front and behind. They were trapped. Satisfied with his advantage, Hooker became convinced that Lee's only option was to retreat to Richmond, thus (8) (assure) a Union victory. Yet Lee, despite his disadvantages of both numbers and position, did not retreat. Instead, he moved his troops into position to attack. Union soldiers who tried to warn Hooker that Lee was on the offensive (9) (dismiss) as cowards. Having become convinced that Lee had no choice but (10) (retreat), Hooker began to ignore reality. When Lee's army attacked the Union soldiers at 5:00 p.m., they were eating supper, completely unprepared for battle. They abandoned their rifles and fled as Lee's troops came shrieking out of the brush, bayonets drawn. Against all odds, Lee won the Battle of Chancellorsville, and Hooker's forces withdrew in defeat. Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. 15.(10分) A. inadequate B. repeatedly C. process D. achieve E. directed F. reactions G. raising H. eliminate I. characterized J. immediate K. mechanism The human body can tolerate only a small range of temperature, especially when the person is engaged in vigorous activity. Heat (1) usually occur when large amounts of water and/or salt are lost through oversweating following exhausting exercise. When the body becomes overheated and cannot (2) this overheatedness, heat exhaustion and heat stroke are possible. Heat exhaustion is generally (3) by sweaty skin, tiredness, sickness, dizziness, plentiful sweating, and sometimes fainting, resulting from a(n) (4) intake of water and the loss of fluids. First aid treatment for this condition includes having the victim lie down, (5) the feet 8 to 12 inches, applying cool, wet cloths to the skin, and giving the victim sips of salt water (1teaspoon per glass, half a glass every 15 minutes) over a 1﹣hour period. Heat stroke is much more serious; it is a(n) (6) life﹣threatening situation. The characteristics of heat stroke are a high body temperature (which may reach 106° F or more); a rapid pulse; hot, dry skin; and a blocked sweating (7) . Victims of this condition may be unconscious, and first﹣aid measures should be (8) at quickly cooling the body. The victim should be placed in a tub of cold water or (9) sponged with cool water until his or her temperature is sufficiently lowered. Fans or air conditioners will also help with the cooling (10) . Care should be taken, however, not to over﹣chill the victim once the temperature is below 102° F. III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. 16.(15分)For centuries, time was measured by the position of the sun with the use of sundials. Noon was recognized when the sun was the highest in the sky, and cities would set their clock by this apparent (1) time, even though some cities would often be on a slightly different time. Daylight Saving Time (DST), sometimes called summer time, was (2) to make better use of daylight. Thus, clocks are set forward one hour in the spring to move an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening and then set back one hour in the fall to return to (3) daylight. Benjamin Franklin first conceived the idea of daylight saving during his term as an American delegate in Paris in 1784 and wrote about it (4) in his essay, "An Economical Project." It is said that Franklin awoke early one morning and was surprised to see the sunlight at such an hour. Always the (5) , Franklin believed the practice of moving the time could save on the use of candlelight, as candles were expensive at the time. In England, builder William Willett (1857﹣1915)became a strong supporter for Daylight Saving Time upon noticing blinds(百叶窗) of many houses were (6) on an early sunny morning. Willet believed everyone, including himself, would appreciate longer hours of light in the evenings. In 1909, Sir Robert Pearce (7) a bill in the House of Commons to make it obligatory(义务) to (8) the clocks. A bill was drafted and introduced into Parliament several times but met with great opposition, mostly from farmers. (9) , in 1925, it was decided that summer time should begin on the day following the third Saturday in April and close after the first Saturday in October. The U.S. Congress passed the Standard Time Act of 1918 to establish standard time and (10) and set Daylight Saving Time across the continent. This act also devised(制定) five time (11) throughout the United States: Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific, and Alaska. The first time zone was set on "the mean astronomical time of the seventy﹣fifth degree of longitude west from Greenwich" (England). In 1919, this act was abandoned. President Roosevelt established year﹣round Daylight Saving Time (also called War Time) from 1942﹣1945. However, after this period, each state (12) its own DST, which proved to be (13) to television and radio broadcasting and transportation. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson created the Department of Transportation and signed the Uniform Time Act. As a result, the Department of Transportation was given the responsibility for the time laws. During the oil embargo(禁运) and energy crisis of the 1970s, President Richard Nixon (14) DST through the Daylight Saving Time Energy Act of 1973 to conserve energy further. This law was (15) in 1986, and Daylight Saving Time was reset to begin on the first Sunday in April (to spring ahead) and end on the last Sunday in October (to fall back).

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. 17.(8分)The lives of the Ancient Greeks revolved(运转) around Eris, a concept by which they defined the universe. They believed that the world existed in a condition of opposites. If there was good, then there was evil;if there was love, then there was hatred; joy, then sorrow; war, then peace; and so on. The Greeks believed that good Eris occurred when one held a balanced outlook on life and coped with problems as they arose. It was a kind of ease of living that came from trying to bring together the great opposing forces in nature. Bad Eris was evident in the violent conditions that ruled men's lives. Although these things were found in nature and sometimes could not be controlled, it was believed that bad Eris occurred when one ignored a problem, letting it grow larger until it destroyed not only that person, but his family as well. The Ancient Greeks saw Eris as a goddess: Eris, the Goddess of Discord, better known as Trouble. One myth that expresses this concept of bad Eris deals with the marriage of King Peleus and the river goddess Thetis. Zeus, the supreme ruler, learns that Thetis would bear a child strong enough to destroy its father. Not wanting to father his own ruin, Zeus convinces Thetis to marry a human, a mortal(凡人) whose child could never challenge the gods. He promises her, among other things, the greatest wedding in all of Heaven and Earth and allows the couple to invite whomever they please. This is one of the first mixed marriages of Greek Mythology and the lesson learned from it still applies today. They do invite everyone…except Eris, the Goddess of Discord. In other words, instead of facing the problems brought on by a mixed marriage, they turn their backs on them. They refused to deal directly with their problems and the result is tragic. In her fury(狂怒), Eris arrives, ruins the wedding, causes a jealous argument between the three major goddesses over a golden apple, and sets in place the conditions that lead to the Trojan War. The war would take place 20 years in the future, but it would result in the death of the only child of the bride and groom, Achilles. Eris would destroy the parents' hopes for their future, leaving the couple with no legal heirs (继承人) to the throne. Hence, when we are told, "If you don't invite trouble, trouble comes," it means that if we don't deal with our problems, our problems will deal with us…with a revenge! It is easy to see why the Greeks considered many of their myths learning myths, for this one teaches us the best way to defeat that which can destroy us. (1)Bad Eris is defined in the passage as A. the violent conditions of life. B. the problems man encounters. C. the evil goddess who has a golden apple. D. the murderer of generations. (2)Zeus married Thetis off because A. he needed to buy the loyalty of a great king of mankind. B. he feared the gods would create bad Eris by competing over her. C. he feared the Trojan War would be fought over her. D. he feared being a father of a boy who would kill him in the future. (3)Zeus did not fear a child of King Peleus because A. he knew that the child could not climb Mt. Olympus and manage to kill a god. B. he knew that the child would be killed in the Trojan War which would happen in 20 years. C. he knew that no matter how strong a mortal child was, he couldn't overthrow an immortal god. D. he knew that Thetis would always love him above everyone else. (4)What does the myth in the passage want to tell us? A. Do not consider a mixed marriage. B. Do not anger the gods. C. Do not ignore the problems that arise in life. D. Do not take myths seriously. 18.(6分)The National Storytelling Youth Olympics is an event where thousands of kids from grades 6 to 12 compete against each other by telling stories. It is sponsored by the Master's Degree Program in Reading and Storytelling at East Tennessee State University. The sole purpose of this event is to promote and encourage both the art and science of storytelling among middle school and high school students. Although this event is competitive, its underlying intent and goal is to provide students across the nation with a reason to practice numerous noncompetitive skills. Those skills include skillful sportsmanship , responsible behavior, and an attitude of respect for others and the storytelling genre. The eventual goal of the National Storytelling Youth Olympics is to encourage every classroom in America to discover (or rediscover) the beauty of storytelling and story performance. The National Storytelling Youth Olympics takes place usually around the first weekend in March. Students from all over the country arrive by bus, plane, or automobile in Johnson City, Tennessee. They usually arrive on Thursday or Friday. Those that arrive on Thursday take advantage of their early arrival by telling stories at local schools. On Friday, an evening meal is prepared for all contestants, coaches, and parents. Games are played, stories are told, and lifetime friendships begin. Saturday is the day of the big event. A luncheon(午餐会) is held in the afternoon so contestants can familiarize themselves with the surroundings and do a sound check. The event is divided into three categories separated by grades. Contestants are judged not only by their storytelling performance, but also by the attitude and behavior they display during the entire weekend. A winner is picked from each of the three categories; however, there is an overall winner who is granted the name of Grand Torch Bearer. This person is selected not only by the judges, but also by the contestants. After the winners have been announced, the contestants retreat back to their hotel where a celebratory ice cream party is held; and believe it or not, they tell more stories! This is what the National Storytelling Youth Olympics is all about: developing a love for the art of storytelling. (1)Which of the following sets of words best describes the Grand Torch Bearer? A. competitive, ambitious, talented B. respectful, responsible, skilled C. athletic, determined, creative D. imaginative, individualistic, pessimistic (2)Why would someone MOST LIKELY choose to attend the National Storytelling Youth Olympics? A. To refine storytelling skills while meeting new friends. B. To compete fiercely with the best storytellers in the country. C. To earn money and fame. D. To develop one's personal skill in lecture only. (3)When is dinner prepared for all contestants, coaches, and parents? A. Wednesday. B. Friday. C. Thursday. D. Saturday. 19.(8分)Philosophy of Education is a label applied to the study of the purpose, process, nature and ideals of education. It can be considered a branch of both philosophy and education. Education can be defined as the teaching and learning of specific skills, and the imparting of knowledge, judgment and wisdom, and is something broader than the societal institution of education we often speak of. Many educationalists consider it a weak and imprecise field, too far removed from the practical applications of the real world to be useful. But philosophers dating back to Plato and the Ancient Greeks have given the area much thought and emphasis, and there is little doubt that their work has helped shape the practice of education over the millennia. Plato is the earliest important educational thinker, and education is an essential element in "The Republic" (his most important work on philosophy and political theory, written around 360 B.C.). In it, he advocates some rather extreme methods: removing children from their mothers' care and raising them as wards of the state, and differentiating children suitable to the various castes(社会等级), the highest receiving the most education, so that they could act as guardians of the city and care for the less able. He believed that education should be holistic(全面的), including facts, skills, physical discipline, music and art. Plato believed that talent and intelligence is not distributed genetically and thus is to be found in children born to all classes, although his proposed system of selective public education for an educated minority of the population does not really follow a democratic model. Aristotle considered human nature, habit and reason to be equally important forces to be cultivated in education, the ultimate aim of which should be to produce good and virtuous citizens. He proposed that teachers lead their students systematically, and that repetition be used as a key tool to develop good habits, unlike Socrates' emphasis on questioning his listeners to bring out their own ideas. He emphasized the balancing of the theoretical and practical aspects of subjects taught, among which he clearly mentions reading, writing, mathematics, music, physical education, literature, history, and a wide range of sciences, as well as play, which he also considered important. During the period of Middle Age, the idea of Perennialism was first formulated by St. Thomas Aquinas in his work "De Magistro". Perennialism holds that one should teach those things deemed to be of everlasting importance to all people everywhere, namely principles and reasoning, not just facts (which are apt to change over time), and that one should teach first about people, not machines or techniques. It was originally religious in nature, and it was only much later that a theory of worldly Perennialism developed. During the Renaissance(文艺复兴), the French doubter Michel de Montaigne (1533 ﹣ 1592)was one of the first to critically look at education. Unusually for his time, Montaigne was willing to question the conventional wisdom of the period, calling into question the whole structure of the educational system, and the assumption that university﹣educated philosophers were necessarily wiser than uneducated farm workers, for example. (1)Why do many educationists consider philosophy a ‘weak and imprecise field'? A. It is the practical applications of the real world. B. Its theoretical concepts are easily understood. C. It is irrelevant for education. D. It is not practically applicable. (2)What is the difference between the approaches of Socrates and Aristotle? A. Aristotle felt the need for repetition to develop good habits in students; Socrates felt that students need to be constantly questioned. B. Aristotle felt the need for rote﹣learning; Socrates emphasized on dialogic learning. C. There was no difference. D. Aristotle emphasized on the importance of paying attention to human nature; Socrates emphasized upon science. (3)According to the passage, the underlined word "Perennialism" most probably refers to something A. that is unnecessary. B. that is of ceaseless importance. C. that is abstract and theoretical. D. that exists no more. (4)Why did Aquinas propose a model of education which did not lay much emphasis on facts? A. Facts are not important. B. Facts do not lead to holistic education. C. Facts change with the changing times. D. Facts are frozen in time. Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. 20.(8分) A. These questions may well get clearer and clearer during the process of academic writing. B. The introduction should function as the hook which draws the reader in and holds his attention. C. It is a formal skill, which requires precision and accuracy, and is perfected by continuous and dedicated practice. D. If one is hesitant to answer even one of the aforementioned questions, one had better not write at all! E. It may take one a considerable period of time to know the skills of academic writing, even long after his/her college graduation. F. It is a time﹣consuming activity and demands patience and perseverance. The art of academic writing is not easy to master. (1 Academic writing is the skilful exposition and explanation of an argument, which the writer has carefully researched and developed over a sustained period of time. (2) But the joy of reading and sharing with others, one's succinctly composed piece of argument, is incomparable. Before beginning to write, the writer must ask himself a few questions ﹣ Why am I writing? What is it that I intend to share with others? What purpose will my writing serve? Have I read enough about the topic or theme about which I am going to write? (3) Because academic writing is a serious activity ﹣ it makes one part of a shared community of readers and writers who wish to disseminate and learn from well﹣argued pieces of writing. The structure of an argumentative essay should take the form of ﹣ Introduction (which should be around ten percent of the entire essay), Body (it should constitute eighty percent of the piece) and the Conclusion (again, ten per cent of the essay). (4) The body should include cogent and coherently linked paragraphs and the conclusion should re﹣state the argument and offer a substantial ending to the piece. IV. Summary Writing 21.(10分)Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. What started as a race to space between the United States and Russia has turned out to be a technological revolution that has greatly improved the quality of daily life throughout the world. Scientists at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have invented new technology to make space flights doable. The same technology, when applied on Earth, has produced thousands of products in the areas of health and sports that have significant impacts on our lives. Many of these improvements are in the fields of health and medicine. NASA﹣inspired technology fueled the great advances in the early detection of deadly diseases. For instance, computer chips designed for the Hubble telescope are used in digital imaging devices that help medical professionals detect cancer at very early stages. Eye doctors can now diagnose vision problems in very young children by using ocular screening. Ultrasound scanners, portable x﹣ray devices, and bone analyzers are among the medical devices developed with the help of space technology. Fogless ski goggles and special sportswear are among the hundreds of items of sports equipment inspired by NASA technology. Space technology has been applied to sports too. The running shoes that athletes use today have midsoles that act like shock absorbers and keep the runners steady while in motion. These shoes utilize the technology NASA used to design the moon boot. In golf, athletes use a new ball that employs NASA research on how to make the flight of the ball from the tee to the green faster and more accurate. In swimming, athletes can swim faster because of NASA﹣developed riblets in the fabric of their swimsuits. Almost all aspects of daily life continue to improve because NASA scientists are still at work. Transportation, methods of preparing food, and work environments are other ways in which NASA technology has made significant changes. V.

For months, the two armies had been staying on opposite banks of a narrow river. The Confederate(南方联盟) troops were led by perhaps (1) the most honored (honored) military tactician(战略家) in American history, General Robert E. Lee. The Union (北方联盟)soldiers were led by "Fighting" Joe Hooker. In appearance, personality, and lifestyle, these men were nearly perfect opposites. Lee, an older man in poor health with a gray beard, had a solemn, measured character. Hooker was a blond, broad﹣shouldered young man (2) whose pride over his appearance was but one aspect of his self﹣centeredness. Whereas Lee was loyal and principled, Hooker was known for his rollicking enjoyment of both women and whiskey. Despite the fact that the Confederacy (3) had won (win) the last four major battles and the Union soldiers were starving, (4) exhausted (exhaust), and demoralized, Hooker proclaimed, "My plans are perfect. And when I start to carry them out, (5) may God have mercy on Bobby Lee, for I shall have none." Why was Hooker so confident? Hooker had used spies, analysts, and even hot air balloons to compile a vast amount of intelligence about Lee's army. He had already been aware, for example, (6) that Lee had only 61,000men to Hooker's own 134,000. Supported by his superior numbers, Hooker secretly moved 70,000of his men fifteen miles up and across the river, and then ordered them to sneak back down to position themselves (7) behind Lee's army. In effect, Hooker had cut off the Confederate soldiers in front and behind. They were trapped. Satisfied with his advantage, Hooker became convinced that Lee's only option was to retreat to Richmond, thus (8) assuring (assure) a Union victory. Yet Lee, despite his disadvantages of both numbers and position, did not retreat. Instead, he moved his troops into position to attack. Union soldiers who tried to warn Hooker that Lee was on the offensive (9) were dismissed (dismiss) as cowards. Having become convinced that Lee had no choice but (10) to retreat (retreat), Hooker began to ignore reality. When Lee's army attacked the Union soldiers at 5:00 p.m., they were eating supper, completely unprepared for battle. They abandoned their rifles and fled as Lee's troops came shrieking out of the brush, bayonets drawn. Against all odds, Lee won the Battle of Chancellorsville, and Hooker's forces withdrew in defeat. 【考点】N6:语法填空.菁优网版权所有 【分析】文章讲述了美国内战期间一场有名的战争,由南方联盟将军General Robert E.

Noon was recognized when the sun was the highest in the sky, and cities would set their clock by this apparent (1) B time, even though some cities would often be on a slightly different time. Daylight Saving Time (DST), sometimes called summer time, was (2) A to make better use of daylight. Thus, clocks are set forward one hour in the spring to move an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening and then set back one hour in the fall to return to (3) D daylight. Benjamin Franklin first conceived the idea of daylight saving during his term as an American delegate in Paris in 1784 and wrote about it (4) C in his essay, "An Economical Project." It is said that Franklin awoke early one morning and was surprised to see the sunlight at such an hour.

A bill was drafted and introduced into Parliament several times but met with great opposition, mostly from farmers. (9) B , in 1925, it was decided that summer time should begin on the day following the third Saturday in April and close after the first Saturday in October.

This act also devised(制定) five time (11) C throughout the United States: Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific, and Alaska. The first time zone was set on "the mean astronomical time of the seventy﹣fifth degree of longitude west from Greenwich" (England). In 1919, this act was abandoned. President Roosevelt established year﹣round Daylight Saving Time (also called War Time) from 1942﹣1945. However, after this period, each state (12) D its own DST, which proved to be (13) B to television and radio broadcasting and transportation. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson created the Department of Transportation and signed the Uniform Time Act.

Section BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. 17.(8分)The lives of the Ancient Greeks revolved(运转) around Eris, a concept by which they defined the universe. They believed that the world existed in a condition of opposites. If there was good, then there was evil;if there was love, then there was hatred; joy, then sorrow; war, then peace; and so on. The Greeks believed that good Eris occurred when one held a balanced outlook on life and coped with problems as they arose. It was a kind of ease of living that came from trying to bring together the great opposing forces in nature. Bad Eris was evident in the violent conditions that ruled men's lives. Although these things were found in nature and sometimes could not be controlled, it was believed that bad Eris occurred when one ignored a problem, letting it grow larger until it destroyed not only that person, but his family as well. The Ancient Greeks saw Eris as a goddess: Eris, the Goddess of Discord, better known as Trouble. One myth that expresses this concept of bad Eris deals with the marriage of King Peleus and the river goddess Thetis. Zeus, the supreme ruler, learns that Thetis would bear a child strong enough to destroy its father. Not wanting to father his own ruin, Zeus convinces Thetis to marry a human, a mortal(凡人) whose child could never challenge the gods. He promises her, among other things, the greatest wedding in all of Heaven and Earth and allows the couple to invite whomever they please. This is one of the first mixed marriages of Greek Mythology and the lesson learned from it still applies today. They do invite everyone…except Eris, the Goddess of Discord. In other words, instead of facing the problems brought on by a mixed marriage, they turn their backs on them. They refused to deal directly with their problems and the result is tragic. In her fury(狂怒), Eris arrives, ruins the wedding, causes a jealous argument between the three major goddesses over a golden apple, and sets in place the conditions that lead to the Trojan War. The war would take place 20 years in the future, but it would result in the death of the only child of the bride and groom, Achilles. Eris would destroy the parents' hopes for their future, leaving the couple with no legal heirs (继承人) to the throne. Hence, when we are told, "If you don't invite trouble, trouble comes," it means that if we don't deal with our problems, our problems will deal with us…with a revenge! It is easy to see why the Greeks considered many of their myths learning myths, for this one teaches us the best way to defeat that which can destroy us. (1)Bad Eris is defined in the passage as A A. the violent conditions of life. B. the problems man encounters. C. the evil goddess who has a golden apple. D. the murderer of generations. (2)Zeus married Thetis off because D A. he needed to buy the loyalty of a great king of mankind. B. he feared the gods would create bad Eris by competing over her. C. he feared the Trojan War would be fought over her. D. he feared being a father of a boy who would kill him in the future. (3)Zeus did not fear a child of King Peleus because C A. he knew that the child could not climb Mt. Olympus and manage to kill a god. B. he knew that the child would be killed in the Trojan War which would happen in 20 years. C. he knew that no matter how strong a mortal child was, he couldn't overthrow an immortal god. D. he knew that Thetis would always love him above everyone else. (4)What does the myth in the passage want to tell us? C A. Do not consider a mixed marriage. B. Do not anger the gods. C. Do not ignore the problems that arise in life. D. Do not take myths seriously. 【考点】O6:社会文化类阅读.菁优网版权所有 【分析】 本文介绍了一个希腊神话故事:古希腊人的生活围绕着厄里斯,他们用这个概念来定义宇宙.他们相信世界存在于一种对立的状态中.如果有善,那么就有恶;如果有爱,那么就有仇恨;欢乐,然后是悲伤,战争,然后是和平,等等.希腊人相信,当一个人对生活持一种平衡的看法,并且在问题出现时加以处理时,就会产生好的厄里斯.为了把自然界中的敌对势力聚集在一起,恶劣的环境在支配人们生活的暴力环境中是显而易见的.尽管这些东西是在自然界中发现的,有时是无法控制的,但人们相信,忽视一个问题就会产生恶劣的环境"古希腊人把厄里斯看作是一位女神:厄里斯,不和的女神,更著名的是麻烦. 【解答】1.A.细节理解题.根据第一段Although these things were found in nature and sometimes could not be controlled, it was believed that bad Eris occurred when one ignored a problem, letting it grow larger until it destroyed not only that person, but his family as well.

It is sponsored by the Master's Degree Program in Reading and Storytelling at East Tennessee State University. The sole purpose of this event is to promote and encourage both the art and science of storytelling among middle school and high school students. Although this event is competitive, its underlying intent and goal is to provide students across the nation with a reason to practice numerous noncompetitive skills. Those skills include skillful sportsmanship , responsible behavior, and an attitude of respect for others and the storytelling genre. The eventual goal of the National Storytelling Youth Olympics is to encourage every classroom in America to discover (or rediscover) the beauty of storytelling and story performance. The National Storytelling Youth Olympics takes place usually around the first weekend in March. Students from all over the country arrive by bus, plane, or automobile in Johnson City, Tennessee. They usually arrive on Thursday or Friday. Those that arrive on Thursday take advantage of their early arrival by telling stories at local schools. On Friday, an evening meal is prepared for all contestants, coaches, and parents. Games are played, stories are told, and lifetime friendships begin. Saturday is the day of the big event. A luncheon(午餐会) is held in the afternoon so contestants can familiarize themselves with the surroundings and do a sound check. The event is divided into three categories separated by grades. Contestants are judged not only by their storytelling performance, but also by the attitude and behavior they display during the entire weekend. A winner is picked from each of the three categories; however, there is an overall winner who is granted the name of Grand Torch Bearer. This person is selected not only by the judges, but also by the contestants. After the winners have been announced, the contestants retreat back to their hotel where a celebratory ice cream party is held; and believe it or not, they tell more stories! This is what the National Storytelling Youth Olympics is all about: developing a love for the art of storytelling. (1)Which of the following sets of words best describes the Grand Torch Bearer? B A. competitive, ambitious, talented B. respectful, responsible, skilled C. athletic, determined, creative D. imaginative, individualistic, pessimistic (2)Why would someone MOST LIKELY choose to attend the National Storytelling Youth Olympics?

It can be considered a branch of both philosophy and education. Education can be defined as the teaching and learning of specific skills, and the imparting of knowledge, judgment and wisdom, and is something broader than the societal institution of education we often speak of. Many educationalists consider it a weak and imprecise field, too far removed from the practical applications of the real world to be useful. But philosophers dating back to Plato and the Ancient Greeks have given the area much thought and emphasis, and there is little doubt that their work has helped shape the practice of education over the millennia. Plato is the earliest important educational thinker, and education is an essential element in "The Republic" (his most important work on philosophy and political theory, written around 360 B.C.). In it, he advocates some rather extreme methods: removing children from their mothers' care and raising them as wards of the state, and differentiating children suitable to the various castes(社会等级), the highest receiving the most education, so that they could act as guardians of the city and care for the less able. He believed that education should be holistic(全面的), including facts, skills, physical discipline, music and art. Plato believed that talent and intelligence is not distributed genetically and thus is to be found in children born to all classes, although his proposed system of selective public education for an educated minority of the population does not really follow a democratic model. Aristotle considered human nature, habit and reason to be equally important forces to be cultivated in education, the ultimate aim of which should be to produce good and virtuous citizens. He proposed that teachers lead their students systematically, and that repetition be used as a key tool to develop good habits, unlike Socrates' emphasis on questioning his listeners to bring out their own ideas. He emphasized the balancing of the theoretical and practical aspects of subjects taught, among which he clearly mentions reading, writing, mathematics, music, physical education, literature, history, and a wide range of sciences, as well as play, which he also considered important. During the period of Middle Age, the idea of Perennialism was first formulated by St. Thomas Aquinas in his work "De Magistro". Perennialism holds that one should teach those things deemed to be of everlasting importance to all people everywhere, namely principles and reasoning, not just facts (which are apt to change over time), and that one should teach first about people, not machines or techniques. It was originally religious in nature, and it was only much later that a theory of worldly Perennialism developed. During the Renaissance(文艺复兴), the French doubter Michel de Montaigne (1533 ﹣ 1592)was one of the first to critically look at education. Unusually for his time, Montaigne was willing to question the conventional wisdom of the period, calling into question the whole structure of the educational system, and the assumption that university﹣educated philosophers were necessarily wiser than uneducated farm workers, for example. (1)Why do many educationists consider philosophy a ‘weak and imprecise field'? D A. It is the practical applications of the real world. B. Its theoretical concepts are easily understood. C. It is irrelevant for education. D. It is not practically applicable. (2)What is the difference between the approaches of Socrates and Aristotle? A A. Aristotle felt the need for repetition to develop good habits in students; Socrates felt that students need to be constantly questioned. B. Aristotle felt the need for rote﹣learning; Socrates emphasized on dialogic learning. C. There was no difference. D. Aristotle emphasized on the importance of paying attention to human nature; Socrates emphasized upon science. (3)According to the passage, the underlined word "Perennialism" most probably refers to something B A. that is unnecessary. B. that is of ceaseless importance. C. that is abstract and theoretical.

IV. Summary Writing 21.(10分)Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. What started as a race to space between the United States and Russia has turned out to be a technological revolution that has greatly improved the quality of daily life throughout the world. Scientists at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have invented new technology to make space flights doable. The same technology, when applied on Earth, has produced thousands of products in the areas of health and sports that have significant impacts on our lives. Many of these improvements are in the fields of health and medicine. NASA﹣inspired technology fueled the great advances in the early detection of deadly diseases. For instance, computer chips designed for the Hubble telescope are used in digital imaging devices that help medical professionals detect cancer at very early stages. Eye doctors can now diagnose vision problems in very young children by using ocular screening. Ultrasound scanners, portable x﹣ray devices, and bone analyzers are among the medical devices developed with the help of space technology. Fogless ski goggles and special sportswear are among the hundreds of items of sports equipment inspired by NASA technology. Space technology has been applied to sports too. The running shoes that athletes use today have midsoles that act like shock absorbers and keep the runners steady while in motion. These shoes utilize the technology NASA used to design the moon boot. In golf, athletes use a new ball that employs NASA research on how to make the flight of the ball from the tee to the green faster and more accurate. In swimming, athletes can swim faster because of NASA﹣developed riblets in the fabric of their swimsuits. Almost all aspects of daily life continue to improve because NASA scientists are still at work. Transportation, methods of preparing food, and work environments are other ways in which NASA technology has made significant changes. 【考点】R5:读写任务作文.菁优网版权所有 【分析】高分句型: 1.
