作者态度题。根据对整篇文章的分析，特别是文章最后一段，我们可以看出，作者对比尔·盖茨和玛琳达及其基金会的评价很高，因此．选项A最贴近题意，为正确答案。
参考译文：
比尔·玛琳达基金会可以算是历史上最具创新意识、最成功的基金会。现在一共有270亿的慈善基金。
几年前，比尔·盖茨和他的妻子玛琳达就开始思索他们如何才能帮助大部分人，然后就开始着手把更多的资金投在慈善事业上。一开始，他们就达成协议说他们的钱不是为了得到世人的认可和褒扬而投资的；更不会区分受助者的种族、肤色和宗教信仰。相反，是为了世界各地那些亟待帮助的人们。事实上在大多数情况下，是那些关乎生存的需要。不久，他们将这些想法变成了现实：开始关注全球健康和教育。1999年，基金会兑现了最大的慈善诺言之一：将7亿5千万资金用于购买儿童疫苗。
此后他们的投入不仅仅是金钱。他们把自己的聪明才智和精力也投资到了慈善事业上。比尔开始大量接触医疗知识。他每年都要翻阅大量医疗资料以便学习如何对付世界上出现的最危险的疾病。在与他的接触中，我曾多次听他谈到这方面的知识，而且每次都为他知识的深度而折服。玛琳达则周游世界各地去了解从西雅图出去的每一分钱是否都用在了实处。
她坚信“好人有好报”。无论是比尔辽是玛琳达，他们都全身心地投入到这种令人难以置信的棘手的工作当中。他们的智慧在那些大型慈善机构中是罕见的。哪里有需要哪里就有他们及时的帮助。
在对人类福利争业所做的页献上，他们是让我最敬佩的人物。 -
第2题：
Passage Three
Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to prepare them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a system of education which will really prepare children for life. It is not enough just to choose the first system of education one finds, or to continue with one's old system of education without examining it to see whether it is in fact suitable or not.
In many modern countries, it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all—whether rich or poor, clever or stupid—one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees than there are jobs for them to fill. Because of their degrees, they refuse to do what they consider "low" work; and, in fact, work with the hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries.
But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor. We can live without education, but we will die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we would have terrible diseases in our towns. In countries where there are no servants because everyone is ashamed to do such work, scientists have to waste much of their time doing housework.
In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to prepare for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability, and secondly, we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and it is very bad to be ashamed of one's work, or to scorn someone else's. Only such a type of education can be called valuable to society.
44. Education is______.
A. a purpose
B. a means
C. fashionable
D. the first system
正确答案：B
44．答案为B 此题为细节题。本文主要探讨教育问题。第一句就是主题句，给出了教育的定义。所以答案在第一段的第一句：Education is not an end，but a means to an end。 -
第3题：
Suppose we built a robot(机器人)to explore the planet Mars. We provide the robot with seeing detectors(探测器)to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times? No. The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.
According to the evolutionary(进化的)theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The theory does not deny(否认)that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能). It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform. those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into;it does not protect us form. trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.
The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little? Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do. But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep. Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value. Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival(生存)depends on their ability to run away from attackers.
1. The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us _____.
A. the differences between robots and men
B. the reason why men need to sleep
C. about the need for robots to save power
D. about the danger of men working at night
2. Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him _____.
A. keep up a regular pattern of life
B. prevent trouble that comes looking for him
C. avoid danger and inefficient labour
D. restore his bodily functions
3. According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we _____.
A. are worrying about our safety
B. are overworked
C. are in a tent
D. are away from home
4. Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats _____.
A. need more time for restoration
B. are unlikely to be attackers
C. are more alive than horses when they are awake
D. spend less time eating to get enough energy
5. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage? _____
A. Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking.
B. The study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory.
C. Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots.
D. The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats.

单选题At the end of the passage, the author states all the following EXCEPT that ______.ADanes are clearly informed of their social benefits
BDanes take for granted what is given to them
Cthe open system helps to tide the country over
Dorderliness has alleviated unemployment
正确答案： A解析：
是非题。最后一段最后一句提到“the orderliness of the system makes it possible for the country to weather high unemployment and social unrest without a sense of crisis”，该句中的weather意为“经受住，度过（难关）等”，由此可知丹麦的井井有条有助于这个国家更好地应对高失业率和社会动乱，并不是指井然有序减少了失业率。因此选项D表述有误。
