A
Dear Mary,
I hear you have been studying abroad from one of our old classmates. How long have you been in America? What do you feel these days?
I have been in America one year and five months. I have the same experiences as you are having. Here, I am going to give some advice to you.
Don t feel down when you have found the real America isn t the one you had thought. We all thought America is too wonderful for us to go. Don t be disappointed when your whole family live in a one-room house. The rent of housing is increasing sharply now. Don t get disappointed that the food is distasteful. The American food has their own traits. Try to taste different things in another way. American food may become delicious when we get used to these tastes. Don t be disappointed that the clothes look ugly. American people like simple, plain clothes. The clothes are very soft and comfortable. You will love to wear them one day.
No matter where we are, we always need to keep working hard. The competitions are keen in America. Especially, we are new immigrant students. We must have more challenges than the other American students. We shouldn t give up ourselves. We should believe we will beat all challenges to reach our goals.
English is the biggest problem that every immigrant student has in America. Learning a new language is not easy. Therefore, we need to work harder to learn English. We especially need to build up our vocabularies. Those vocabularies will help us to write and communicate with other people. English language is really important to learn in America.
In conclusion, these are all my own opinions. These are what I had experienced or am experiencing. I hope they are really helpful to you.
Good luck, my dear friend.
Yours sincerely,
Jack

Many people underestimate music education in the schools today. A new study showed, however, music education is extremely important.
In college, music education is one of the largest programs. Teachers have to learn general education materials and techniques. They must learn to play every instrument; they must learn music history and music theory; they must learn instrument repair and teaching methodologies; they must learn conducting and so much more. At the same time, much of our culture and tradition is absorbed in music.
Music plays a very important role in our education.
Music helps with math and science. Students learn to count, keep a steady rhythm, and how to multiply and divide. They even learn a little bit of algebra (代数). Students also use science to discover what sounds good together and what does not. Students also need science to understand something called the “overtone series”, which is about how music is produced by vibration (颤动) and why.
Students learn a lot about languages through music. Many songs are written in other languages, including ancient ones. Students must learn to translate these works to understand what they are singing about. A song is likely to be a famous short work set to music; so students are exposed to that very often while singing.
Students learn a huge amount of cooperation of body parts through music, so parts of the body can work better together. Students must use motor (肌肉运动的) skills in order to play an instrument. Singers and wind (管乐器) players must learn breath control and be in good shape to play.
Students learn about art. Some famous pieces were written about important pieces of art, and students learn about the artists and styles as they re playing the music.
Music education also brings higher thinking to our children. It allows them to think about complex patterns. It almost leads to a philosophical environment. Students have to be absolutely
aware of what every other musician does at every time. In that way, it develops cooperation, as well. They tend to develop more capability for learning.
As one can see, music is very important to education.
24.As to the benefits from music, which of the following is NOT included in the passage?
A.Relaxation.
https://www.doczj.com/doc/cb5873314.html,nguage study.
C.Calculation.
D.Cooperation of body parts.
25.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Science and music are against each other.
B.Music is good to our all-round development.
C.Only the wisest person can learn music well.
D.All of us know the importance of music clearly.
26.The last paragraph serves to .
A.let everyone discuss
B.introduce another topic
C.summarize the whole passage
D.explain the purpose of writing the passage
27.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Music and education
B.An introduction to music education
C.The importance of music education
D.Abilities required for music education
【答案与解析】

C
As a professor I have grown accustomed to the opinion regarding American education. We are repeatedly told that American schools are failing, that colleges are not teaching, and that the students of today are not as good as the students of the past.
There are, of course, problems with the education system. Because of economic inequality some schools are significantly better than others and the ideas of equality of education and equality of opportunity are cruel jokes. However, the mere fact that there are some serious problems does not mean that all the dire claims are true.
One stock (陈腐的) claim is that America has fallen behind the world in education in terms of performance on various tests. While the fact that America is behind other countries is a point of concern, there are at least three points worth considering here. The first is the above-mentioned economic inequality which will tend to result in poorer performance when taking the average for America. The second is that many countries have put considerable effort into improving their education systems and hence it is worth considering that America s decline is also due to the improvement of others. The third is the matter of the measures—do they, in fact, present an accurate picture of the situation? I am not claiming that the data is bad. I am merely raising a reasonable concern about how accurate our picture of education is at this time.
Another stock claim is that American students are doing badly on standardized tests. While there is clearly value in assessment, it is reasonable to consider whether or not such tests are a proper and adequate measure of education. It is also worth considering whether the puzzle with these tests is itself causing damage to education. That is, as teachers teach for the test and students learn for the test, it might be the case that what is being taught is not what should be taught and what is being learned is not what should be learned.
28.What does the underlined word “dire” in the second paragraph mean?
A.Exact or precise.
B.Extremely serious or terrible.
C.Fair or objective.
D.Long and boring.
29.Judging by the text, the claims are centered on .
A.what should be taught in the American classroom
B.fair judgment of American education
C.American students performance on tests
D.an accurate picture of American colleges
30.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.People questioned the value in assessment.
B.Standardized tests are not proper and adequate.
C.The tests are causing damage to education.
D.American students perform poorly in standardized tests.
31.The passage is written mainly to .
A.defend American education
B.show dissatisfaction with American education
C.explain why American students do badly on tests
D.offer advice on American education reform
【答案与解析】
现在人们普遍认为美国教育在倒退,究其原因,人们众说纷纭。
28.B该单词所在的段落主要讲述了人们对目前美国教育系统的问题以及造成这些问题的原因的抱怨,但作者认为这些糟糕的抱怨并不都完全正确,故B项符合语境。
29.C根据第3、4段可知,人们对美国教育制度的抱怨主要源自美国学生在考试的表现上不佳。
30.D根据最后一段第1句“Another stock claim is that American students are doing badly on standardized tests”可知答案。
31.A文章针对人们对美国教育的抱怨,作者进行了辩驳陈述,认为美国教育并不像人们说的那样糟糕,目的是捍卫美国教育制度。
D
Food picked up just a few seconds after being dropped is less likely to contain bacteria than if it is left for longer periods of time, according to the findings of research carried out at Aston University s School of Life and Health Sciences. The findings suggest there may be some scientific basis to the “5-second rule”—the belief about it being fine to eat food that has only had
contact with the floor for five seconds or less. Although people have long followed the 5-second rule, until now it was unclear whether it actually helped.
The study, undertaken by final year Biology students and led by Anthony Hilton, Professor of Microbiology at Aston University, monitored the transfer of the common bacteria from a variety of indoor flooring types such as carpet, cement (水泥) floor to toast, pasta, a biscuit and a sticky sweet when contact was made from 3 to 30 seconds. The results showed that: Time is a significant factor in the transfer of bacteria from a floor surface to a piece of food; and the type of flooring the food has been dropped on has an effect, with bacteria least likely to transfer from carpeted surfaces and most likely to transfer from cement flooring surfaces to moist (湿的) foods making contact for more than 5 seconds. Professor Hilton said: “Consuming food dropped on the floor still carries an infection risk as it very much depends on which bacteria are present on the floor at the time.”
The Aston team also carried out a survey of the number of people who employ the 5-second rule. The survey showed that: 87% of people surveyed said they would eat food dropped on the floor, or already have done so. 55% of those who would eat or have eaten food dropped on the floor are women. 81% of the women who would eat food from the floor would follow the
5-second rule. Professor Hilton added, “Our study showed that a surprisingly large majority of people are happy to consume dropped food, with women the most likely to do so. But they are also more likely to follow the 5-second rule.”
32.Eating food dropped on the floor still carries an infection risk because it relies on at that time.
A.the type of bacteria
B.the carpet
C.the cement floor
D.the surface of table
33.The passage is developed probably by .
A.time
B.space
C.contrast
D.example
34.How did Professor Hilton feel after analysing how many people chose to eat dropped food?
A.Satisfied.
B.Astonished.
C.Puzzled.
D.Upset.
35.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.The food which is dropped on the floor can be eaten safely.
B.The bacteria have no negative effect on the safety of food.
C.A research on the safety of food dropped on the floor is undertaken.
D.People surveyed in the research are willing to accept the idea.
【答案与解析】
这是一篇科普文,Aston 大学做了一系列研究,调查掉在地上的食物可食用的安全性。32.A根据第2段最后一句可知,吃那些掉在地面上食物的风险性主要依赖于此时地面上细菌的存在情况。
33.C文章论述观点时拿不同性质的地面作对比,还有多少人愿意吃掉在地上的食物,拿男女进行对比,故答案是C项。
34.B根据最后一段“Professor Hilton added, …Our study showed that a surprisingly large majority of people are happy to consume dropped food...?”可知,Hilton教授对这一问题的调查结果感到很吃惊。
35.C文章主要讲了对掉在地上的食物可食用的安全性的研究,故答案是C项。

Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? 36
A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. 37When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather rent than buy them. 38
American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough.39When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver s exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.
40They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one
or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies.
A.Every student is given a locker.
B.Each day, students take six or seven classes.
C.Sometimes their parents drive them to school.
D.Students must pay back if they lost any of them.
E.This is because each teacher has their own classroom.
F.The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon.
G.This article will describe a typical American high school and its students.

Manager,
I am an exchange student from China. Yesterday, I went to your cinema to see a film. The film was very well, but I did not enjoy it because there were some problem in the cinema.
First, the film was delayed as there were so much advertisements at the beginning. It was rather annoyed. Second, the sound of the film was too loud that I could hardly bear. The EXIT signs could not be seen clearly, which presented potential safety problems. If something terribly should happen, it will be difficult for people to get out quickly.
As a visitor to your city, I m disappointed with my experience in your cinema. I am writing a letter in the hope that you can consider on these problems and make some improvements.
Yours faithfully,

参考词汇: 应试教育exam-oriented education
Recently, a heated discussion on the reform plans for the English test has swept the country.
答案:
One possible version:
Recently, a heated discussion on the reform plans for the English test has swept the country.
Some think this reform is good news for the students who are poor in English because this measure can reduce their learning load, and they can save more energy to learn other subjects. On the other hand, it is also beneficial to change the current exam-oriented education. Others are strongly opposed to the idea because it will disobey the globalization trend that English is increasingly being required. What s more, those students who are excellent at English will lose their advantage in the college entrance exam and it is sure to affect their total mark.
In my opinion, this reform is good. Every coin has two sides. We should balance the real need for English.
