2.If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A well-known scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1937), concluded from other men's work and his own among people in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities. He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!1). Huntington based his conclusions on ___________.A. work with people in different climatesB. records of temperature changesC. records of change in his own intelligenceD. all of the above2). Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have _________.A. a great effect on everyone's intelligenceB. no effect on people's intelligenceC. effect on only a few people's intelligenceD. some effect on most people's intelligence3). One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that ___________.A. there are some things making all nature different from beforeB. it is neither too warm nor too coldC. it is more natural for the development of mental abilitiesD. it lasts longer than the other seasons4). The two best seasons for thinking seem to be _____________.A. winter and summerB. fall and winterC. spring and fallD. summer and spring5). According to the passage above, vacations from thinking should be taken ___________.A. as seldom as possibleB. during spring and fallC. several times throughout the yearD. during the summer

  • 第2题:

    根据题目要求完成下列任务。用中文作答。
    在教授Where did you go on vacation?--课时,某教师做出如下教学设计:
    2.Presentation(呈现新知识)
    T:(从复习中引出)Where did you go last weekend?
    S:1 went to…
    T:Where did you go on vacation last summer?Do you remember?
    S:1 went to…通过图片呈现单词on vacation last summer.

    根据上面的信息,从下列两个方面作答:
    (1)在此教学过程中,该教师是如何创设情境的?(15分)
    (2)除了该教师所用的创设情境的方法,创设情境还有哪些手段?(至少三种)(15分)


    答案:
    解析:
    (1)该教师通过以下方式创设情境:①运用图片创设情境
    在Presentation环节用图片呈现单词、短语创设情境,不但可以克服死记硬背单词容易遗忘的缺陷,而且能培养学生灵活运用单词的能力,学会在交际中使用单词,达到学以致用的最终目的。
    ②运用生活创设情境
    在Followup处.教师引导学生从实际生活出发,运用所学内容,可以很好地激发学生兴趣,使他们积极思维.从而更好地引导学生理解、掌握语言知识。
    ③运用现代化媒体创设情境
    在教学设计中,教师让学生听录音,灵活运用电教手段,为学生提供真实自然的语言使用示范,让学生置身于以英语为母语的环境中,体验英语的实际运用。
    (2)创设情境的手段:
    ①运用活动创设情境
    新课程倡导培养学生的语言实践能力、体验和探究意识,而要实现这一目标,创设活动的情境是一种有效的教学方法。教师可以结合学生情况及教学内容设计多样化的教学活动,如:小组竞赛、角色扮演、上网查询、社会调查、游戏活动等。
    ②运用语言创设情境
    语言情境是创设情境教学的最基本、最常用的方法。在教学中,语言是教学活动中不可缺少的必备条件。教师常常以语言描绘或形象的肢体语言与其他直观手段结合运用,把学生带入特定的情境,引发学生的学习热情。
    ③运用问题创设情境
    问题是探究的起点,学生面对问题是走向探究的第一步。教师设置合理的问题情境对激发学生的求知欲至关重要。创设问题情境可从五方面人手:利用知识的关联性创设问题情境;利用对某一问题的不同观点、看法创设问题情境;联系生活实际和热点、焦点问题创设问题情境;利用学生的典型错误创设问题情境;通过活动直观演示创设问题情境。
    总之,教学情境的创设和利用没有固定的方法,教师要根据教学任务、教学对象、教学设施及教师本人的素质,选择适当的创设情境的途径,不断激发学生的学习兴趣,提高课堂教学效果。

  • 第4题:

    资料:Did your child's brain shrink last summer? Probably not, but it may have shifted into reverse, according to a study by Dr. Harris Cooper, professor of psychology at the University of Missouri-Columbia. The study found that when students return to school after a long summer vacation, they've lost one to three months worth of learning.
    The decline is more detrimental for math than it is for reading. "All students lose math skills," says Cooper. It may be because community and home environments give kids more opportunities to practice reading than math. The study also found that income has an impact on how much a student loses or gains in reading. Middle-class children actually gained in reading over the summer, while lower-income students experienced losses. Cooper attributes this to the enrichment activities that many middle-class kids participate in over the summer, such as camp and trips.
    Your kids don't have to spend the summer stuck in reverse. "Parents can help their kids retain educational skills," says Cooper. He suggests the following five tips to kick off a learning-filled summer.
    1. Keep lots of books around and make regular trips to the library. Most libraries schedule special summer events for kids. Sign up your family!
    2. Think about what your kids may be learning next year when you plan the family vacation. Talk with teachers to find out what they'll be covering in class. If it's a unit on the civil war for example, you may want to schedule a visit to Gettysburg. If it's geology, visit a national park.
    3. Keep math in mind. Since kids lose more math skills than anything else over the summer, try to do some special planning to find math-related activities. For example, if you can't decide whether to sign your child up for "Shakespeare's Theater" or "Math Magic" at the local community center, go with the math.
    4. Consider summer school or tutoring. Struggling kids can get a lot of different kinds of help from these programs. Summer school can also enrich and accelerate learning in areas where kids show a special interest.
    5. Call the curriculum coordinator in your child's school district, visit the school board office, or contact the schools of education at local colleges and universities to find out what educational programs will be offered in your area over the summer.
    Remember to keep it fun! You don't want to sour your kids on learning during the summer break.

    How dose income affect a student’s loses or gains in summer learning? ( )

    A.Lower-income children experienced lose in math over the summer
    B.Middle-class children gained in learning over the summer
    C.Lower-income children gained in math over the summer
    D.Middle-class children suffered lose in math over the summer

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题考查的是细节理解。
    【关键词】income affect;loses or gains; summer learning
    【主题句】第2自然段Middle-class children actually gained in reading over the summer, while lower-income students experienced losses.中产阶级的孩子在暑假期间的阅读能力事实上得到提高,而低收入家庭的学生阅读能力下降。
    【解析】本题的问题是“在暑期学习中,收入如何影响学生的得与失?”。根据主题句可知,中产阶级的孩子在暑假期间的阅读能力得到提高,而低收入家庭的学生阅读能力下降。故B选项正确。

    共用题干
    Energy Cycle
    Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness,but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
    During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're“hot”.That's true .The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak .For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologues as:“Get up,John!You'll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
    You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit to it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but you must stay up late anyway .Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
    Get off to a slow start which saves your energy .Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble of searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before .Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

    Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
    A: Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy.
    B: Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.
    C: Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.
    D: Children have energy cycles,too.

    答案:B
    解析:
    根据第一段可以看出,早晨起不来与个人每天的能量周期有关。根据文章第二段中约翰自言自语以及紧接着的解释“Get up , John ! You'll be late for work again ! ” The explanation… temperature-and-energy peak in the evening.可推断出答案。


    答案的线索在第二段最后一句话“Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.”也就是说,如果丈夫和妻子能明白不同的能量周期是怎么回事,家里每个人有什么样的能量周期,很多家庭争吵就不会发生。所以正确答案是A。


    “如果一个人想在早上能量低潮时更有效地工作,那么他该怎么办?”根据这两句话“If your energy is low in the morning but you have…but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.”可以断定正确答案应该是C。


    “建议你早上起床时打个呵欠,伸伸懒腰,因为它们会_______”首先应理解文章最后一段的第一句话“get off to a slow start which saves your energy”,还要理解该句后面的三句话,它们是保存能量的具体方法。“Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch”当然是为了保存能量。所以正确答案是A。


    选项B说Dr. Kleitman解释了为什么人们在一天里的不同时刻会有不同的能量高峰。而文章第二段指出没有人发现为什么会有不同的能量周期“For some people the peak comes during morning…No one has discovered why this is so.”两者不符,所以正确答案是B。

    D

    Your kids don't have to spend the summer stuck in reverse. "Parents can help their kids retain educational skills," says Cooper. He suggests the following five tips to kick off a learning-filled summer.
    1. Keep lots of books around and make regular trips to the library. Most libraries schedule special summer events for kids. Sign up your family!
    2. Think about what your kids may be learning next year when you plan the family vacation. Talk with teachers to find out what they'll be covering in class. If it's a unit on the civil war for example, you may want to schedule a visit to Gettysburg. If it's geology, visit a national park.
    3. Keep math in mind. Since kids lose more math skills than anything else over the summer, try to do some special planning to find math-related activities. For example, if you can't decide whether to sign your child up for "Shakespeare's Theater" or "Math Magic" at the local community center, go with the math.
    4. Consider summer school or tutoring. Struggling kids can get a lot of different kinds of help from these programs. Summer school can also enrich and accelerate learning in areas where kids show a special interest.
    5. Call the curriculum coordinator in your child's school district, visit the school board office, or contact the schools of education at local colleges and universities to find out what educational programs will be offered in your area over the summer.
    Remember to keep it fun! You don't want to sour your kids on learning during the summer break.

    问答题
    Practice 3  In men, good looks is a whole, something taken in at a glance. It does not need to be confirmed by giving measurements of different regions of the body; nobody encourages a man to dissect his appearance, feature by feature. As for perfection, that is considered trivial—almost unmanly. Indeed, in the ideally good-looking man a small imperfection or blemish is considered positively desirable.  To preen, for a woman, can never be just a pleasure. It is also a duty. It is her work. If a woman does real work—and even if she has clambered up to a leading position in politics, law, medicine, business, or whatever—she is always under pressure to confess that she still works at being attractive. But in so far as she is keeping up as one of the Fair Sex, she brings under suspicion her very capacity to be objective, professional, authoritative, thoughtful. Damned if they do—women are. And damned if they don’t.  How easy it is to start off by defining women as caretakers of their surfaces, and then to disparage them (or find them adorable) for being “superficial”. It is a crude trap, and it has worked for too long. But to get out of the trap requires that women get some critical distance from the excellence and privilege which is beauty, enough distance to see how much beauty itself has been abridged in order to prop up the mythology of the “feminine”. There should be a way of saving beauty from women—and for them.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    在男性那里,好看是一种整体的感觉,是匆匆一瞥留下的印象。这不需要提供身体各部位的尺寸来确认,没有人会鼓励男性将自己的外表一点一点拆分开来考察。至于外表完美,那在人们看来是微不足道的,甚至缺乏阳刚之气。实际上,一个男人如果在外表上有一点点瑕疵,或疤痕,反而会被奉为理想的美男子。
    对于一个女性来说,打扮自己,绝不仅仅是一种愉悦。这也是一种职责。这是她的工作。如果一个女人做了真正意义上的工作——即使攀升到政界、法律界、医学界、商界等领域的领导地位——她也总是被迫承认自己依然在努力保持吸引力。但是当她努力扮演一个女性的角色之际,她的客观性、权威性、专业素质和思维的周密程度,都备受质疑。她们如果做,会受到责难;不做,同样会遭到指责。
    人们总是那么轻易地在一开始就把女性定义为关注呵护外表的人,然后再诋毁她们“肤浅”(或者觉得她们“肤浅”得可爱)。这是一个天然的陷阱,而且存在了太久。要摆脱这个陷阱,女性需要带上批评的眼光,与美丽所代表的出色与特权保持一定距离,距离要足够远,能够让人看清楚美丽在多大程度上遭到削弱,形成了“女性化”的误区。我们理应把美丽和女性分离出来,这同时也是为了保持女性美。
