3.In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: we eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were leaner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch TV.Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting fact:The more the man ran, the greater loss of body fat.The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake.Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.1、What kind of physical problem do many adult Americans have?____A、They are too slim.B、They work too hard.C、They are too fat.D、 They lost too much body fat.2、Based upon the statistics given in the article, suppose there are 500 adult Americans, about how many of them will have a "weight problem"?____A、 30.B、 50.C、100.D、150.3、Is there scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a "weight problem"?____A、Yes, there is plenty of evidence.B、Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.C、There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.D、We don't know because the information is not given4、In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of ____.A、ate more food and had more physical activitiesB、ate less food but had more activitiesC、 ate less food and had less physical exerciseD、had more weight problems5、What have modern medical and scientific researches reported to us?____A、Fat people eat less food and are less active.B、 Fat people eat more food than slim people and are more active.C、 Fat people eat more food than slim people but are less active.D、 Thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intake.

    Teaching Is“One of the Least Popular Jobs in the UK”
    1. The UK government has just published a report on the future of secondary-school teaching (pupils aged 11~16),and the conclusion of the report is that many secondary schools now face great difficulties in finding people who want to be teachers.Since the 1980s,the number of grad-uates who say they would“seriously consider” teaching as a career has fallen sharply,from 64% in 1982 to just 17%today. The report suggests that urgent action needs to be taken in order to encourage more intelligent young graduates into teaching.
    2. The main drawback of secondary teaching,according to the report,is the low salary.Earnings in teaching are much lower than in many other jobs,and this means that fewer and fewer young people decide to be teachers .Joanne Manners,24,is a good example.“I graduated in maths last year,and I was thinking of doing a teacher training course to become a maths teacher -but when I looked into the details, it became clear that teaching isn't a very lucrative(赚钱的)job these days. I saw I could earn twice as much if I worked in marketing or advertising,and so I decided not to become a teacher.”
    3. It's not just about the money,however. The survey concluded that another reason why people don't want to be teachers is that some teenagers behave very badly in school. A lot of schools have problems with discipline,and it seems clear that children do not have the same respect for teachers as in the past. Here's the view of Dave Hallam,an accountant from London:“I think parents are to blame. They should have stricter rules with their children at home and also teach their children to have more respect for teachers.”
    4. “I love teaching;it's my passion.I've been a secondary-school teacher of Spanish for ten years now,and although it's a very demanding job,it's very satisfying. When I see my students passing their Spanish exams,or singing along to Spanish pop songs ,it makes me feel so proud.” Says Brian Jones,who works in a secondary school in London.So what does he think the govern-ment should do to encourage more people to become teachers?”“My view is that the government should reduce the burden of work on teachers. I find that I always have too much work to do.”
    5. The report is clear that the problem of teacher shortage is a very serious one.It says that the government should raise teachers' pay significantly,to catch up with workers in other professions. It also suggests that the government could launch a nationwide publicity campaign,with some ad-vertisements on TV and in the newspapers,to show the positive sides of teaching to young people. Another solution could be set a maximum number of hours per week that teachers can work,in or-der to reduce stress on teachers.“Hopefully,”the report concludes,“these solutions can im- prove the poor image of secondary teaching,and increase the number of young people who want to become teachers in the future.

    Morc and more young people are hold back from tcaching______.
    A: its benefits
    B: their childhood memories
    C: their stress
    D: more training
    E: discipline problems
    F: because of its low pay

    答案:F
    解析:
    第一段是联合王国政府对现今中学教育缺少教师的报道。因此本题选E。


    本段是对中学教育缺少教师主要原因的解释―薪资低,致使越来越少的年轻人想要当老师。故本题选D。


    该段是陈述中学教育缺少教师的另一个原因―学生表现不好,学校缺乏管理纪律。因此本题选A。


    本段是通过一位中学教师来说明缺乏教师的原因之一——教师工作任务重。


    根据第二段可知,越来越少的年轻人想要当老师,是因为教师的工资太低。故选F。


    根据第三段的“They should have stricter rules with their children at home and also teach their children to have more respect for teachers.”可知,家长在家里要严格管教学生,教他们尊敬老师,遵守纪律,以支持老师工作。故本题选E。


    减轻工作负担的目的就是减缓压力,从最后一段的“Another solution could be set a maximum number of hours per week that teachers can work,in order to reduce stress on teachers.”即可得出答案。故选C。


    根据最后一段“…with some advertisements on TV and in the newspapers, to show the positive sides of teaching to young people.”可知,政府应该向人们展示年轻人当老师的好处,故本题选A。

  • 第13题:

    About 21,000 young people in 17 American states do not attend classes in school buildings.

    Instead,they receive their elementary and high school education by working at home on computers.The Center for Education Reform. says the United States has 67 public “cyberschools.” and that is about twice as many as two years ago.

    The money for students to attend a cyberschool comes from the governments of the states where they live.Some educators say cyberschools receive money that should support traditional public schools.They also say it is difficult to know if students are learning well.

    Other educators praise this new form. of education for letting students work at their own speed.These people say cyberschools help students who were unhappy or unsuccessful in traditional schools.They say learning at home by computer ends long bus rides for children who live far from school.

    Whatever the judgement of cyberschools,they are getting more and more popular.For example,a new cyberschool called Commonwealth Connections Academy will take in students this fall.It will serve children in the state of Pennsylvania from ages five through thirteen.

    Children get free equipment for their online education.This includes a computer,a printer,books and technical services.Parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending emails through their computers when necessary.

    Students at cyberschools usually do not know one another.But 56 such students who finished studies at Western Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School recently met for the first time.They were guests of honor at their graduation.

    1、What do we know from the text about students of a cyberschool?

    A、They have to take long bus rides to school.

    B、They study at home rather than in classrooms.

    C、They receive money from traditional public schools.

    D、They do well in traditional school programs.

    2、What is a problem with cyberschools?

    A、Their equipment costs a lot of money.

    B、They get little support from the state government.

    C、It is hard to know students' progress in learning.

    D、The students find it hard to make friends.

    3、Cyberschools are getting popular became().

    A、they are less expensive for students

    B、their students can work at their own speed

    C、their graduates are more successful in society

    D、they serve students in a wider age range

    4、We can infer that the author of the text is().

    A、unprejudiced in his description of cyberschools

    C、doubtful about the quality of cyberschoois

    D、disappointed at the development of cyberschools

  • 第15题:

    In a quiet,darkened lecture room,you begin a frustrating fight against fatigue. The overhead projector hums,and you cannot concentrate on the slides. You stop absorbing information and become absent-minded. The professor lost you a long time ago. You are bored.

    Virtually everyone gets bored once in a while. Most of us chalk it up to a dull environment. “The most common way to define boredom in Western culture is‘having nothing to do. ’”says psychologist Stephen Vodanovich of the University of West Florida. And indeed,early research into the effects of boredom focused on people forced to perform. dull tasks,such as working a factory assembly line.

    But boredom is not merely an natural property of the circumstances,researchers say. Rather this perception is subjective and rooted in aspects of consciousness. Levels of boredom vary among people:some individuals are far less liable to boredom than others-and some,such as extroverts(性格外向者),are more likely to have this feeling.

    Thus,a new generation of scientists is coping with the psychological interpretations of this most tedious of human emotions-and they have found that it is more complicated than is commonly known. Researchers say that boredom is not a unified concept but rather comes in several flavors. Level of attention,an aspect of conscious awareness,plays an important role in boredom,such that improving a person's ability to focus may therefore decrease boredom. Emotional factors can also contribute to boredom. People who are poor in understanding their own feelings and those who become sucked in and distracted by their moods are more easily bored,for example.

    Staying away from tedium is not easy. People who are liable to boredom are more likely to suffer from ills such as depression and drug addiction;they also tend to be socially awkward and poor performers at school or work.

    The purpose of the first paragraph is to______.

    A.illustrate why people are less able to focus

    B.show how boring a lecture in a dark room is

    C.tell people how fatigue affects concentration

    D.describe a situation where people can get bored


    正确答案:D
    解析:段落大意题。第一段从一开始就在描绘一种情景,“安静的、黑暗的教室里……投影机嗡嗡地响着……你开始变得心不在焉”。由此可知,第一段的目的是描绘一种容易使人厌倦的情景,故选D。
