Modern technology (技术) has provided us with lots of ways we can make learning more interesting. Perhaps most importantly of all, it's also more interactive (互动).Some kinds of tools (工具) have been developed. They make the 21st century learning experience much more interactive and interesting. Attracting the attention of students is always difficult, but these tools have made a big difference in how pupils learn.For example, an interactive whiteboard is different from a traditional chalkboard. It allows theteachers to show images and provide sound as well. If you imagine a large computer screen with colorful images and sound added in, you can see why so many pupils are drawn in by what they see and hear in a modern classroom.Various audio (声音的) tools also help to make sure that everyone can hear what the teacher has to say. In the past, if a teacher said something that a child missed, perhaps the child was too timid (胆小的) or nervous to ask them to repeat it. Now they are less likely to miss out simply because they're sitting too far away from the teacher to hear them.The 21st century classroom is able to teach pupils more than one thing. For example, imagine a history lesson is given in a modern classroom. How is it different from a classroom setting in the past? The answer is simple. The students will not only learn about history itself, they will also learn how to use the modern equipment (设备) that helps the teacher get their message across.Modern technology can make teaching and learning easier. Student response (应答) system makes everyone able to express their opinions or answers without having to speak up. Since everyone can do it, the teacher can see who needs more help in other ways.It's clear that this kind of classroom technology is making a great difference in modern classrooms. ( )27. Modern technology______.A. is less interactiveB. makes learning more boringC. provides us with many better learning waysD. only uses blackboard and chalk( )28.The interactive whiteboard________.A.can’t attract pupils’ attention in the classB.allows the teachers to show images and sounds as wellC.is the same as traditional chalkboardD.is a computer screen with only black and white images( )29.What can you imagine a modern classroom different from the one setting in the past?A.Students can learn all subjects with modern technology except History.B.Students can express their ideas more freely.C.Teachers don't have to be in the class.D.Teachers have to ask students who needs more help one by one.( )30. In the last paragraph, the underlined phrase “making a great difference” means “____________”.A. playing an important roleB. making a different thingC. not being a same thingD. preventing us from learning三、信息还原（共1小题：每小题5分.满分5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

The newspaper said the six-year-old girl’s parents were unhappy with a teacher who just got the new job to teach the only pupil.The school had been closed for the last nine months after its former (前任的)teacher retired (退休)and the only other pupil moved on to a secondary school. The new teacher, Ms Puckey, was to start teaching the girl and reopen the school. But the girl's mother is keeping her daughter at home.“I was not pleased with the new teacher,” the mother said. I had told th e old teacher as far back as last September that if Ms Puckey got the job, my children would not be going to school.” Theschool lies on an island off the north-east coast of Scotland. Although there was only one pupil, the school is very good m many ways and has a headmaster, three computers, a television and an art room as well as a school house with three bedrooms.( )1. The reading is about________.A. the smallest school that was closed downB. the only pupil in the smallestschoolC. the new teacher and her teachingD. the old teacher who just retired ( )2. The underlined phrase “turn up” in the reading means ________.A. pass an examB. go to schoolC. pay moneyD. hand in homework( )3. From the reading we can know that the school ________.A. is too far for the studentsB. does not have enough teachersC. does not have many pupilsD. is new but small( )4.

The reading doesn’t say but we can infer(推断）that ________.A. the girl’s mother had only one childB. the new teacher not kind to the girlC. the old teacher was fit to teach the girlD. the parents were unhappy with the schoolBIn London, there has always been a main problem .In order to solve this problem? the government has decided to have a bike revolution (革命）It has decided to provide6,000 bikes for the people to rent. The government encourages local people to ride bikes in order to solve the traffic problem.More than 12,000 people have agreed to the idea. Some of them ask for more than one key. Although there are not enough bikes，an official(官员）from the government that they would find some ways to deal with such a shortage.Local people can get these bikes at special docking stations. There are about 315 docking stations across the city. About 12,450 keys have already been handed out to the local people, but only 6,000 keys can be used now.Let’s see the cost you need to pay. One key costs £3，and the cost of using the bike is £l for an hour. The cost per hour increases as the hours increase, so it will cost £50 if you rent the bike for 24 hours.The official from the government said they also needed to face a lot of problems, for example, some bikes may be lost.
