Reading ComprehensionPassage 1The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. Different cultures are more likely to cause certain different illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, about 35 years ago, government researchers realized that nitrates, commonly used to preserve color in meats, andother food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to beef and living animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are given to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.21. What is the best possible title of the passage?A. Drug and FoodB. Cancer and HealthC. Food and HealthD. Health and Drug22. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons.B.Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to theliving animals.C.Researchers have known about the potential dangers of food additives for over thirty-fiveyears.D.Food has may cause forty percent of cancer in the world.23. How has science done something harmful to mankind?A. Because of science, diseases caused by polluted food have been virtually eliminated.B. It has caused a lack of information concerning the value of food.C. Because of the application of science, some potentially harmful substances have been addedto food.D. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables.24. What are nitrates used for?A.They preserve the flavor in packaged foods.B. They preserve the color of meats.C.They are the objects of research.D. They cause the animals to become fatter.25. The word “carcinogenic” most nearly means …________‟.A. trouble-making C. color-retainingB. money-making D. cancer-causingPassage 2Let us take a look at the chief thing in the story---the human body itself. A human body appears to be rather soft and delicate, compared with that of a wild animal, but it is actually surprisingly strong. Indeed, its very softness and looseness is an advantage: it makes man good at moving about and falling about in safety. Man is the most skillful in movement of all living things of his own size, because he can do so many different things with his limbs. Man‟s games show how he can control his own body. No other land creature can swim as skillfully as man; none has such varied grace; very few live as long as he; none has such strong in its natural resistance to disease. Therefore man has a great advantage in his battle against the risks of damage and death that threaten him. It is difficult to kill him as long as he is fed and in good health. Yet every day thousands of people die needlessly, even though man is naturally strong, because those two killers, disease and starvation, win the battle.Old age? No one can live forever, so one might suppose that quite a large number of old people would come to the end of their days every year. There is, however, another thing to remember. During the time it has taken you to read this page, a considerable number of babieshave been born somewhere in the world---one is born every one and a quarter seconds! Of these babies, one group can be expected to have a good long life of about seventy years, because they were lucky enough to be born in countries where living standards are high.The deadliest of all killers are starvation and disease. We cannot be content until we have mastered them. To do so is one of the most important tasks of our times.26. The softness and looseness of man‟s body is an advantage because it ________.A.makes him strongB. helps him to avoid injuryC. makes him resistant to diseasesD. keeps him in good health27. The words “varied grace” refer to man‟s ________.A.softnessB. strengthC. ability to swim wellD. ability to perform many different movements easily and skillfully28. The sentence that could be considered the topic sentence begins ________.A.Let us take a look…B. A human body appears to be…C. Indeed, its very softness…D. Man is the most skillful…29. The writer tells us that ________.A.there are more old people dying than there are new babies being bornB.there are more new babies being born than there are old people dyingC.the numbers of old people dying and babies born are about the sameD.none of the above answers is right30. What according to the writer is one of the most important tasks of our times?A.To keep people from aging.B. To practice birth-control.C. To make people still stronger.D. To do away with starvation and disease.IV. Translation(enrich, massive, tolerance, strictly speaking, conquer, assume, establish, strike out, fascinating, drift, put … into practice, virtually, to … extent, influence, resemble)1.英语大量借用了其他语言,这大大丰富了它的词汇,造就了它绚丽纷乱的现象。

英语教学法教程王蔷笔记unit7Unit 7: Teaching English Grammar1. Introduction to Grammar Teaching- Grammar is an essential component of language learning as it provides the rules and structure necessary for effective communication.- When teaching grammar, it is important to create a supportive and interactive learning environment where students can practice and apply the rules in meaningful contexts.2. Presenting Grammar- There are various approaches to presenting grammar, including deductive and inductive methods.- The deductive method involves providing explicit explanations and rules before students engage in practice activities.- The inductive method encourages students to discover grammar rules through guided practice and analysis of examples.3. Teaching Grammar in Context- It is essential to teach grammar in meaningful contexts to make it relevant and applicable to students' daily lives.- Use authentic materials, such as news articles or videos, to introduce and teach grammar concepts in real-world contexts.- Incorporate communicative activities that require students to use the grammar rules in speaking or writing tasks.4. Engaging Grammar Practice- Provide a variety of practice activities to cater to different learning styles and abilities.- Include both controlled and freer practice activities.- Controlled practice activities involve structured exercises that focus on accuracy, such as gap-filling or matching exercises.- Freer practice activities allow students to use the grammar rules creatively in more open-ended tasks, such as role-plays or discussions.5. Providing Feedback- Feedback is crucial in helping students improve their understanding and application of grammar rules.- Provide immediate feedback during practice activities, including correction and clarification of errors.- Use a combination of teacher-led and peer feedback to encourage student participation and active learning.6. Assessing Grammar Skills- Assessing grammar skills should go beyond traditional tests and quizzes.- Include a variety of assessment tools, such as presentations, projects, or portfolios, that allow students to demonstrate their understanding and application of grammar rules in different contexts.- Use rubrics or checklists to provide clear criteria for assessment and feedback.7. Conclusion- Teaching English grammar requires a learner-centered approach that emphasizes meaningful context and active engagement.- By providing a supportive and interactive learning environment, teachers can help students develop a strong foundation in grammar skills and enhance their overall English language proficiency.。

Unit 7 The Art of Smart GuessingBryan W. Mattimore1.Several years ago, interviewing candidates for a job, I grew tired of asking"what experience do you have?" So I decided on a one-question quiz to find out how resourceful a thinker the new hire might be. Here it is:2.You are on a yacht sailing the Pacific Ocean. Your navigator announces you areover the deepest point, the Mariana Trench. Just then, a clumsy guest accidentally drops a 12-pound cannonball over the side. Howlong will it take for the cannonball to reach the bottom of the Ocean?3.Before reading on, please try to solve this yourself — paying special attention to how you might solve it.4.Did you makea completely wild guess because "there wasn't enough information"? Did you get too bogged down in the details trying to come up with the "exactly right" answer? Or did you zero in on the two most important problems — how deep is the Mariana Trench and how fast might a cannonball fall through the water — then hazard a guesstimate?5.Most of my candidates simply made a wild guess, thinking that they couldn't be100-percent right. Rarely was someone willing to risk an approximation.6.What does this have to do with business or creativity? A great deal. In the real world, we frequently need to make decisions when the full information does not exist. From what foods we eat to how to raise our kids, creative people must think for themselves. There may not be the time or the moneyto make sure of all your decisions. Your best guess will often be the best you can do.7.Suppose, for example, you've been asked to write a marketing plan for a new telephone device that will send your name, company, address and telephone number to a visual display or printer on another person's phone. In addition to conventional outlets like mass merchandisers and electronics stores, you'd like to know the number of "phone stores" in the United States. Unfortunately, this figure is not available, either from the market-research houses or from the U.S. government. What do you do?8.One solution would be to go to your local library, pull out a few phone directories from around the country, turn to the Yellow Pages and start counting.You could then guesstimate how many stores per 100,000 people in each of the cities you counted. This, by the way, is exactly what a marketing consultant I know did for a large telecommunications client.9.The question about phone stores was an example of what scientists call a Fermi problem, named after Nobel Prize-winning scientist Enrico Fermi, who used problems such as this to teach his students how to think for themselves. A Fermi problem does not contain all the informationyou need to solve it precisely.10.Fermi is said to have once asked his university students how many piano tuners there were in Chicago. To answer the question, he recommended breaking it down into smaller, more manageable questions, and then having the courage to make some guesses and assumptions. Howmany people live in Chicago? Three million would be a reasonable estimate. How many people per family? Assume an average of four. How many familiesown pianos? Say one out of three. Then there were about 250,000 pianos in Chicago.Howoften would each be tuned? Maybe once every five years. That makes 50,000 tunings a year. How many pianos can one tuner tune in a day? Four? And how many in a year?Assuming 250 working days, one tuner can handle 1,000 pianos a year.11.So there's work for approximately 50 piano tuners in Chicago — which, as itturns out, is reasonably close to the actual number in the Yellow Pages.12.Why was guesswork so accurate? The law of averages is partly responsible. At any point, your assumptions may be too high or too low. But because of the law of averages, your mistakes will frequently balance out.13.Here's another puzzle. You probably already know that black absorbs the most heat, while white reflects the most. But what about the other colors in between? How could you find the answer? Hint: it's wintertime, but not too cold.14.Ben Franklin's solution was elegant. He simply laid broadcloth samples of various colors on the snow on a sunny morning. "In a few hours," he reported, "the black, being warmed most by the sun, was sunk so low as to be below the stroke of the sun's rays; the dark blue, almost as low; the lighter blue not quite so much as the dark; the other colors, less as they were lighter, and the quite white remained on the surface of the snow, not having entered it at all."15.One of my favorite "guesstimators" is, west Connecticut inventor Stan Mason, who developed microwave cookware specially designed to position food in the best spot for cooking.16.To do this, Mason needed to know where the microwave's "hot spots" were — the place where the rays hit the food with the highest intensity. To find out, he put shelves of unpopped popcorn kernels in the microwave and watched to see which kernels popped first. He discovered a pattern in the oven's hottest rays: they weren't inthe corners or at the center, but in the shape of a mushroom cloud.17.Then he designed cooking dishes to fit the pattern. He had come up with aresourceful way to approximate the answer rather than using scientifically sophisticated testing equipment.18.Fermi would have approved.19.By the way, the Mariana Trench is about six nautical miles deep, and a cannonball drops at a rate of ten feet per second. So it took the cannonball about an hour to reach the bottom of the trench.20.Could this be guessed? If you know that Earth's highest point Mount Qomolangma, is 29,000 feet, you might reasonably conclude that its lowest point would be close to the samedistance. Then you might imagine that a heavy object would take one second to fall through the water of a 10-foot-deep swimming pool. These estimates would bring you close enough to the correct answer.Chinese Translation of Paragraphs1.几年前,我给应聘者面试,问他们“你有什么经验?”这个问题,后来逐渐问烦了。

It has completely 2 the horse as a means of everyday transportation. Americans use their car for 3 90 percent of all personal 4 . Most Americans are able to 5 cars. The average price of a 6 made car was $2,050 in 1950, $2,740 in 1960 and up to 4,750 7 1975. During this period American car manufacturers set about 8 their products and work efficiency. As a result, the yearly income of the 9 family increased from 1950 to1975 10 than the price ofcars. For this reason 11 a new car takes a smaller 12 of a family’s total earnings today. In 1951 13 it took 8.1 months of an average family’s 14 to buy a new car. In 1962 a new car 15 6.43months of a family’s earnings. By 1975 it took 4.75 16 income.

Reading comprehensionPASSAGE 1Whether the eyes are “the windows of the soul” is debatable;that they are intensely important in interpersonal communicati on is a fact. During the first two months of a baby’s life, the stimulus that produces a smile is a pair of eyes.The eyes need not be real: a mask with two dots will produce a smile. Significantly, a real human face with eyes covered will not motivate a smile, nor will the sight of only one eye when the face is presented in profile. This attraction to eyes as opposed to the nose or mouth continues as the baby matures. In one study, when American four year old were asked to draw people, 75 percent of them drew people with mouths, but 99 percent of them drew people with eyes. In Japan, however, where babies are carried on their mother’s back, infants do not acquire as much attachment to eyes as they do in other cultures. As a result, Japanese adults make little use of the face either to encode (把……编码) or decode (理解)meaning. In fact, Argyle reveals that the “proper place to focus one’s gaze during a conversation in Japan is on the neck of one’s conversation partner.”The role of eye contact in a conversational exchange between two Americans is well defined: speakers make contact with the eyes of their listener for about one second, then glance away as they talk; in a few moments they reestablish eye contact with the listener or reassure themselves that their audience is still attentive, then shift their gaze away once more. Listeners, meanwhile, keep their eyes on the face of the speaker, allowing themselves to glance away only briefly. It is important that they be looking at the speaker at the precise moment when the speaker reestablishes eye contact: if they are not looking, the speaker assumes that they are disinterested and either will pause until eye contact is resumed or will terminate the conversation. Just how critical this eye maneuvering is to the maintenance of conversational now becomes evident when two speakers are wearing dark glasses: there may be a sort of traffic jam of words caused by interruption, false starts, and unpredictable pauses.1. The author is convinced that the eyes are ______.A. of extreme importance in expressing feelings and exchanging ideasB. something through which one can see a person’s inner worldC. of considerable significance in making conversations interestingD. something the value of which is largely a matter of long debate2. Babies will not be stimulated to smile by a person ______.A. whose front view is fully perceivedB. whose face is covered with a maskC. whose face is seen from the side.D. whose face is free of any covering3. According to the passage, the Japanese fix their gaze on their conversatio n partner’s neck because ______.A. they don’t like to keep their eyes on the face of the speakerB. they need not communicate through eye contactC. they don’t think it polite to have eye contactD. they didn’t have much opportunity to communicate through eye contact in babyhood4. According to the passage, a conversation between two Americans may break down due to ______.A. temporary glancing away from the listenerB. eye contacts of more than one secondC. improperly timed ceasing of eye contactD. constant adjustment of eye contacts5. To keep a conversation flowing smoothly, it is better for the participants ______.A. not to wear dark spectaclesB. not to make any interruptionsC. not to glance away from each otherD. not to make unpredictable pausesPASSAGE 2The third function of an economy is to determine who gets the product. Family A gets $5 000 worth of goods this year, family B five times as much —how is the division to be decided? The incomes of individuals are determined by the quantities of resources (labor skills, capital in all forms) they own and the prices they receive for the use of these resources. Workers are incited by the price system to acquire new skills and to exercise them diligently, and families are encouraged to savings (capital accumulation) by the payment of interest or dividends. The inheritance of both personal ability and wealth also enters into the distribution of income.If the price system is working reasonably well, it performs all of these economic functions with remarkable subtlety and precision. Society desires not only the correct amount of wheat but also that it be consumed more or less evenly over the crop year, with a surplus to carry over in case of a partial failure of the next year’s crop. The price system pro vides a seasonal price pattern that encourages the holding of inventories rather than early splurging and richly rewards speculators who correctly anticipate a crop failure and hold grain that will alleviate it. In the same way, the desires of every sizable group of consumers (or resource owners) are registered through the price system; entrepreneurs are incited by price offers toprovide opera and musical comedy, kosher food, and Persian delicacies.High prices in a properly functioning price system thus serve as incentives to produce more and consume less, and lower prices serve as corresponding deterrents. In addition the price system is a method of communicating information. Herbert Spencer once stated, rather ponderously, that only by constant iteration can alien truths be impressed upon reluctant minds: the price system, with its capacity for infinite repetition, is well suited to this sometimes unpleasant task. A higher price of steel scrap, for example, tells thousands of owners and collectors of scrap that more scrap is wanted and that more exhaustive search for abandoned rails, boilers, radiators, and machines is worth undertaking. A higher price of gasoline tells thousands of automobile drivers that gasoline should be used more sparingly, and the message is repeated each time each driver purchases more gasoline.6. According to this passage, the distribution of income is determined by all of the following factors, except ______.A. the price systemB. wealth accumulatedC. productivity growthD. new labor skills7. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the second paragraph?A. The seasonal price pattern best satisfies the desire of society for a balanced supply of wheat.B. The price system is able to satisfy the desires of every sizable group of consumers.C. The price system can satisfactorily perform any of its economic functions.D. It is possible to lower costs of production by standardizing products.8. All of the following statements are true, except ______.A. High prices never appear in a properly functioning price systemB. Lower prices indicate that there is more supply than demandC. Higher prices indicate that there is more demand than supplyD. It is normal for the price of a perishable product to vary with seasons9. The author’s attitude toward the issue of distribution is ______.A. criticalB. impartialC. suspiciousD. sympathetic10. What does the word underlined in the last paragraph mean?A. repetition.B. demonstration.C. clarification.D. organization.Key to Quiz for Unit 71. 汉译:凡有文化的人都该读一读此书。
Unit Seven Risk and CrisisTeacher’s ManualLead-in ActivitiesA Small Quiz:The lower your scores are the more risk-aversion you are. If you chose 1 for every question, it means you’re a highly self-controlled person, unwilling to leave anything to chance and value security above all. Otherwise if you chose 3 for every question, it means you’re a daredevil living for thrill of risk and known for making bold moves. Discussion:1. Risk is the potential that a chosen action or activity (including the choice of inaction) will lead to a loss (an undesirable outcome). The notion implies that a choice having an influence on the outcome exists (or existed). Potential losses themselves may also be called “risks”. Almost any human endeavor carries some risk, but som e are much more risky than others. Crisis is any event that is, or expected to lead to, an unstable and dangerous situation affecting an individual, group, community or whole society.2. Every business organization contains various risk elements while doing the business. Business risks implies uncertainty in profits or danger of loss and the events that could pose a risk due to some unforeseen events in future, which causes business to fail. Business risks can be classified by the influence by two major risks: internal risks (risks arising from the events taking place within the organization) and external risks (risks arising from the events taking place outside the organization).3&4.

We can tell from fossil evidence in rocks that many living species have no longer been in existence over the millions of years since life began. It is a natural process, and dying out is the fate of any animal that has specialized too much to change with its changing environment, or has to compete with a better adapted and more powerful animal. Because of wonderful technical developments during the past few centuries, man has destroyed or has nearly destroyed some species by killing them at such a rate that they couldn't produce enough young, or by completely changing their natural environment at surprising speed.Examples can be given of the way in which natural environments are being rapidly changed. There is every possibility that many species of animals will die out because of their disappearing food source. Large numbers of animals have been hunted and killed for food. The North American buffalo (水牛) is a case of the near-dying-out species through hunting. Often the numbers are so great that the hunters may not realize the danger; or the financial rewards for the hunters may be so great that they choose to pay no attention to the threat to species.Many people are concerned about animals and wildlife protection. One way to protect species from the threat of dying out is to place animals in zoos and parks and breed them there. Another method is to protect the animals in their natural environment by creating wildlife protection areas and parks and using police to look after them. But the parks are large, the police are few, and the determination of hunters is very great. Early in 1980s, police and hunters clashed in East Africa. The hunters were armed with modern weapons, and several people were killed.There is great pleasure in watching wildlife in natural or near-natural environments, and tourism can add to the income of countries. The animals are still resources-but in a very different form.DDDABAccording to the passage, when will animal species become extinct (灭绝)? When it suffers aA. disease it has never known before.B. When it has been in existence for too many years.C. When it has a death rate that is made faster by man.D. When it produces babies slower than the death rate.What might happen to an animal species if it specialized too much?A. It might produce more young.B. It might compete even better.C. It might be forced to change.D. It might die out in the end.One way to protect species from the threat of dying out is to _________.A. build up walls to isolate animals in nature from peopleB. put all the hunters into prison and keep them thereC. educate people in general to protect animals wellD. place animals in zoos and breed them there safelyHow do wildlife protection areas protect endangered animals?A. They use police help to protect them.B. They prevent hunters from killing them.C. They make the areas like natural places.D. They provide the animals with much food.Why do tourists go to places where they can watch wildlife?A. They can add to the income of troubled countries.B. They can make themselves happy by seeing animals.C. They can encourage the growth of natural places.D. They can make use of animal resources more often.Have you ever felt your mind getting confused after a sleepless night and you couldn't come up with an original thought no matter how hard you tried?You were probably right if you thought that was caused by a lack of sleep. Dr. Home, a sleep researcher in England, studied 24 college students. One group got their normal eight hours of sleep. The other group didn't get any sleep at all—they stayed awake all night. The next day,Dr. Home tested the students. He asked them questions that required creative and original thinking. One of the questions was "How many uses can a box be put to?"The results? The wide-awake students did well on the tests. The tired students did poorly.Research has already shown that tired people can do okay on tests of routine thinking, like simple addition. But Dr. Home tested creative thinking only.As part of his study, he offered an amount of money as a reward to the tired students if they did well. But even this encouragement wasn't enough to help the students overcome their tiredness. They still did poorly. Dr. Home believes that the part of the brain where thinking takes place may get worn out during waking hours. Sleep may help to repair the brain overnight. Without any sleep, he emphasizes, "even if you think harder, you cannot do better."This study gives people something to think about, especially people like hospital workers and airplane pilots, who must stay awake all night and then make emergency decisions.ACDADAccording to the passage, failure to think of new ideas may be _____________.A. caused by a lack of sleepB. caused by hard questionsC. caused by a weak brainD. caused by too much studyTired people have no problem with _____________________.A. finding uses for boxesB. making creative ideasC. doing simple math testsD. taking research testsThe purpose for offering money to the tired students was to _____________.A. help them repair their brainsB. stimulate their interestsC. convince people to joinD. encourage them to do betterSleep might help people by ________________.A.repairing the brainB. giving creative dreamsC. providing fresh energyD. allowing harder thoughtThis information is useful to people like nurses and pilots because _____________.A. they often meet situations in which they must be creativeB. they often take tests to display their abilities to do their jobsC. they often go to the hospital because of brain problemsD. they often get little sleep but make important decisionsIt might be surprising for some people to believe that, in today's computer-and-Internet-driven society, there are some book publishers that are still committed to traditional books. Maybe the most famous encyclopedia company, The Encyclopaedia Britannica, which dates back to the 18th century, is planning to release their largest set of books in 2001. This 40-volume set will be the largest printed in its 231-year history.Because of the success of recent Internet and computer encyclopedias, some people have suggested that the publishers could turn their back on print. However, company representative Paul Hoffman said the company is committed to paper and ink."There is still a place for books, even with all of the computer encyclopedias. And many people around the world still want books," he said.Encyclopedias, in book form, are common in library collections and on school shelves. They are often used in student research. And none are used more than those published by the Encyclopedia Britannica.Even so, the company is selling fewer and fewer books and more and more computer encyclopedias, possibly because of the price. The books, US $1450 for a 32-book set, are too expensive for people. The computerized version, which contains all the same information, costs only a 10th of the price.ADCABWhat about the Encyclopedia Britannica is so surprising?A. The company is committed to publishing books.B. The company is selling Internet encyclopedias.C. The company is still open after so many years.D. The company is planning to quit making books.What will make the 2001 set of books different from the other sets?A. It will be the most sold.B. It will be like the 18th-century one.C. It will be on the Internet.D. It will be the largest set.Why have some people suggested that the company stop printing books?A. Because people are no longer buying many encyclopedias.B. Because demand around the world is for ink and paper books.C. Because electronic encyclopedias have become so successful.D. Because Paul Hoffman has turned his back on printing books.What makes the Encyclopedia Britannica's books special?A. They are used more than any other encyclopedias.B. They are used more for study than for doing research.C. They are used in schools and many library collections.D. They are used in many research papers by students.Why are more people buying electronic encyclopedias than book encyclopedias?A. Electronic encyclopedias contain more.B. Electronic encyclopedias cost less money.C. Electronic encyclopedias take up less room.D. Electronic encyclopedias have new ideas.Open or distance learning has had a major effect on higher education through the Open University, the only university to provide education exclusively for adult learners studying at a distance. Our 100,000 students are currently studying at the Open University. We found limited development of distance learning in the case studies, with the exception of some postgraduate and professional courses. Even here, however, there seemed to be limits on further growth because of the high costs involved in setting up new distance learning courses, as well as uncertainties of demand (particularly in terms of the perceived financial returns on study). One of the case study universities provided video facilities and visiting staff to a rural area for a group of undergraduate (大学本科在校的) students about 50 miles away. This was a new development which was working well and likely to be expanded to involve other universities.The main reason for general lack of development of distance learning, especially at the undergraduate level, may be that other universities have been unable to afford the considerable set-up costs and student support facilities. As costs of technology come down this might change. The Open Learning Foundation is developing connections between universities to set open learning approaches within existing programs of study and thus encourage their greater use. This is seen as likely to develop further in the future.CAADBThe Open University provides an education for _________________.A. students who do not like attending regular universitiesB. students who failed the College Entrance ExaminationC. students who are adults and away from a universityD. students who are limited in their ability to learnAmong other things, the further growth of distance learning at postgraduate and professional levels is limited by ____________________.A. the high costs involvedB. a low student demandC. a lack of educationD. the poor rural technologyThe attempt of one case study university to provide equipment and staff to a rural group of students _________.A. would be expandedB. did not work wellC. might help learningD. could cost a lotThe cost of setting up a distance learning program might change ______________.A. as new developments are madeB. as more students take classes thereC. as the Open University helps moreD. as technology becomes cheaperThe tone of this passage can best be described as ________________.A. DiscouragingB. encouragingC. persuasiveD. scientificWhy is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a step back from the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.As almost every imaginable contact between human beings becomes automatic by machine, the alienation quotient goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Phone assistance is almost always fully automatic by machine. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good morning to the worker when you can use your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Placing money at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just put your credit card into the ATM?Pretty soon you won't have the hard task of making eye contact at the grocery store. Some grocery chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those annoying clerks who look at you and ask how you are doing.ADCDBThe effect of increased communication technology is ____________.A. the retreat of human closenessB. the lack of care for neighborsC. the saving of more free timeD. the advance of our contactsIf his mom has a question, he will ____________.A. find new ways to reach herB. send her an email messageC. try to get her a voice machineD. answer through voice mailJudging from the context, the word "alienation" (Line 2, Paragraph 2) means ___________.A. RelationshipB. closenessC. strangenessD. stressATMs in banks have changed life by __________.A. making it more difficult to want human contactB. making it faster to receive money from banksC. making it easier to obtain bank credit cardsD. making it unnecessary to talk with bank clerksThe writer's attitude toward advances in communications technology may be described asA. UnconcernedB. criticalC. positiveD. uninterested。
