The arrival of digital (数字的) time has been changing the way we act and think. I believe that it has put us to a higher level of anxiety, with greater expectations of efficiency.The old, round, hand-moved time still kept a certain connection to the natural flow of things, to the roundness of the earth, and to the changes of light and seasons. Old, round time was outside ourselves, far enough removed from us so we could ignore it if we so chose.It is not so with digital time, which is a beat. It beats instead of turning. It makes a sound like the sound of the heart and thus places itself smoothly into the body. More and more, we mistake its regular beat for our own, thus mistaking the demands of the world for our wishes.Before wrist watches, time used to live in towers in the centers of towns. At that distance, it could be seen by everybody, but only if they so wished. It took an effort, an actual visit to "time". But then something happened. Time began to live with us, and now it is beginning to live in us.I remember what it was like to be a child, absorbed in the endlessly changeable thing of time. For me there was only child time, divided meaninglessly and quite painfully by the orders of the parents into Bedtime, Wakeup Time, and School Time. But within each of those divisions (分割), Eternity still ruled. Later, of course, they managed to infect me with the anxious demands of clock time. Very soon, all that remained was the anxiety of thatwhich was exact. The fast beats of the timepiece (时钟) cut Eternity to pieces.Occasionally, I stop long enough to recall the times of childhood, but not often enough. Like everybody else, I am helpless before the new technologies. Time is a virus, and it is growing stronger.76.Digital time has changed how we act and think by ____C________________.A. allowing us to work with more efficiencyB. giving us more time to do what we likeC. causing us to be more anxiousD. having us expect more of others77.The author thinks that the old clocks _________A___________.A. are somehow linked with the seasonal changesB. stay closer to people than a digital watchC. are connected with human's handsD. work better than a wrist watch78.Before watches, clocks were located _________D_________.A. everywhere for everyone to seeB. wherever a person wishedC. on the wristD. in the center of town79.In the author's early childhood memory, ____B_____________.A. time was a concrete thingB. time seemed to have no endC. he fought against his parents' idea of timeD. he enjoyed the anxiety of precision (精确)80.The author's attitude towards time in the modern world is _____C_______.A. positiveB. unclearC. negativeD. in the middleQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.The University of London is one of Britain's largest centers for higher education, with a name for international education. Located in one of the world's most dynamic(有活力有生气的) cities, we can offer international students a wide and exciting cultural life, as well as the very best course choice and teaching. We offer our international students the ability to study and improve their command of English, to ensure they get the best from the course of their choice.International students are assured of a successful and happy time while studying at the University of London. We have a Student Service office to help you at all times, and first year students are ensured a place in halls of residence if desired. Your teacher will give you personal instruction if required. Students can enjoy themselves in the free health center at any time.As a final point, we offer religious service rooms for those of all faiths and as London is an international city, we can put students in touch with many religious groups in this area. Finally, with excellent air, rail, and road links to the rest of Britain, Europe, and the world, getting here is easy.81.The University of London is located in a city _____B_____________.A. well known for producing excellent professorsB. full of activity and energyC. where you can enjoy everything free of chargeD. that is quiet and peaceful all the time82.The University of London is famous for _________D_________.A. the largest number of studentsB. being located on the ThamesC. excellent transportationD. international education83.Whenever international students have any difficulty in life, they can go to_____C__________ for help.A. the health centerB. the hall of residenceC. the Student Service officeD. their teacher84.The university assures the first year students that ________A_________.A. they can have a place in halls of residence if they wish toB. they don't have to pay for their first-year educationC. they will all be put into some religious groupsD. they can get houses at Newcastle for a very low price85.The main purpose of this passage is to ___________C_______.A. attract more travelers to LondonB. show that the University offers religious serviceC. draw more international studentsD. show how students enjoy their studyQuestions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.Stare at the clock.Make silly drawings.Stare at the clock again.Complain about the weather.The clock? It's still there, ticking even more slowly.No, none of this was planned for the meeting.You'd love to get your work done, but instead you spend half your day in a meeting room.Office workers spend an average of 23 hours a week in meetings, according to the Wharton Center for Applied Research in the US. And, these workers consider only 58 percent of that time useful.It doesn't have to be this way. Here are a few guidelines for you to use meetings effectively, not eat up your productivity.1) Know what you want. "Know precisely why the meeting is being held and decide realistically what you intend to accomplish," says Gayle Brickman, a US communication instructor. "If you cannot write these two things down, the meeting should not take place."2) Figure out whether a face-to-face meeting is necessary. Would a group email be enough?A couple of phone calls? These ways would probably be more efficient with fellow workers you know well.3) Pick the right times. If possible, avoid planning meetings during your most productive hours. If everyone runs to the break room for coffee at 10:30 am, that would be an excellent time to have informal staff meetings.4) Be prepared. Read the plan for what needs to be done. Study the numbers on the project you're putting forward. If there are papers to be discussed, hand them out the day before to those who will attend the meeting.5) Keep track of the time for them. Set apart a certain amount of time each week for the meetings, and keep to it.If you still find yourself caught in meeting after meeting, don't feel bad. At least your organization obviously thinks your physical presence is valuable.86. A worker who is in a meeting that he doesn't want to take part in is likely to______A_____.A. draw funny picturesB. change the clockC. check the weatherD. plan another meeting87.Office workers think that ____C_____ the time used in meetings is wasted.A. more than half ofB. almost all ofC. less than half ofD. none of88.In this passage, we are advised to follow some principles in order to _____C_____.A. learn guidelinesB. eat up productivityC. make the most of meetingsD. increase production89.To decide whether a meeting is necessary, we may ask the following questions except"_____B______".A. Can I solve the problem by email or phone call?B. Will my fellow workers like to have this meeting?C. What is the purpose of this meeting?D. What do I intend to get from the meeting?90.It is a good time to have informal staff meetings ____B_______.A. when you and your coworkers are most productiveB. when all the staff are having a coffee breakC. before you hand out the information to be discussedD. when you can keep track of the time。

They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools in Nanjing.?2.

They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to importantdifferences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third, young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hours a day.;10. Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12.

As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.

He believed in simple living close to nature and in the freedom of the individual. Although he was impressed with the power and beauty of the new steam trains, he worried about the possible effects of rapid transportation on people's live. He was also afraid that modem machines would become the masters rather than the servants of people. In addition, he opposed a strong government because it might interfere with people's freedom.Thoreau tried to live in agreement with his ideas. As a protest against slavery, he actually went to prison rather than pay taxes to a government that allowed it. In his book Civil Disobedience he wrote about the principle of peacefully resisting what a person judges to be immoral acts of government. His most famous book Walden explains many of his ideas. It also tells about his daily life in a simple cabin which he himself had built near a pond in the woods. He had left the convenience and pleasures of his city home to live alone in natural surroundings. There he lived frugally, providing most of his needs from what he found around him.For many years the ideas of Thoreau were known to scholars and to thinkers but not to the general public. However, in the middle years of this century he became the inspiration of many young people dissatisfied with the machine age and with modem ways of life. These people were impressed with his opposition to powerful government, and with his courage in living according to his beliefs. They also welcomed his appreciation of nature and of simple living. Thus Thoreau has now become the guide and ideal of many young Americans a century after his death.1. Which of the following would be a best title for this passage? ______.A.

It was hard for her to make new friends but she finally had three when she joined the Babysitters Club to take care of little children whose parents were busy. Claudia, Kristy, and Mary were in her class at school and also the other members of the club. The girls met at five o'clock on Fridays and waited for the phone to ring. So far they had been busy, in spite of the fact that they couldn't stay out late and were under 13.Suddenly, the girls' world was invaded by a second group calling themselves the Babysitters Agency. They were older and the group also included a few boys. The Babysitters Club tried to think of ways to compete with the older group. They could clean and work for less money, however, they knew it would be difficult to compete. The shock was even greater than they had expected when most of their best customers started to call the new group. They seemed to get only a few jobs.To try a new policy, Kristy recruited a few older kids who told the club they didn't want to share their money with the other group. The club found out only too quickly that these older girls joined only as spies and didn't show up for their job assignments. Thus, more parents were unhappy with the club.Finally, the girls realized that the kids in the other group were not babysitters. They watched television, talked on the phone, and invited boyfriends to the house where they were sitting. When thechildren of the families started to complain, and a near accident almost occurred, the club went to the parents to tell them what was happening.1. Stacy had some trouble ______.A. making new friends at firstB. studying at her new schoolC. joining the Babysitter ClubD. looking after children for others2.

This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children's safety on the roads.Until now the County Council have only been able to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed.The new plan is to be tried out this term for children living at Milton who attend lmpington school. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the Council said in the past it would not undertake to provide free transport to the school. But now they have agreed to organize a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the school's headmaster.Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part in. Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a Council official has said the cost to parents should be less than $30 a term.They have been able to arrange the service at a low- cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington. The same bus would now just make an extra journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new plan.1.

Then, from across the street, someone came walking. It looked like a man of middle height, dressed in a big raincoat, a soft hat and rubber-soled boots or shoes, and making little sound while walking; at most a soft, sliding sound. No one was in sight. It was a street with two rows of about fifty small houses, and there were three lamps on either side. The lamp nearest the child's house could be seen clearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoky air. A car passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly, but clearly enough to show the smooth skin of a women’s face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in her coat, reached the doorway of the child' s house.She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and stepped inside, then dosed the door without looking around. She began to breathe hard.She leaned against the door for a moment, then straightened up as if with an effort, and walked towards the door of the front room, the passage leading to the kitchen, and the narrow staircase. She hesitated outside the door, then went up the stairs, quickly but with hardly a sound. There was enough light from the narrow hall to show tile four doors leading off a small landing. She pushed each door open in turn and shone a torch inside, and the light fell upon beds, walls, furniture, a bathroom hand-basin, a mirror which flashed brightness back; but this was not what the woman was looking for. She turned away and went downstairs, and hesitated again at the foot of the stairs, then turned towards the kitchen. Clearly there was nothing there, or in the small wash-room, that she wanted. Two rooms remained; the front room and a smaller one next to it. She opened the front room door. After a moment, she saw the child's bed and the child.1.The lights of the car passing the end of the street showed that ______.A. a woman was driving the carB. a man and a woman were walking up the streetC. someone was standing by a street lampD. a woman was walking by herself up the street2.

Such motor mimicry, as it is called, is the original technical sense of the word empathy as it was first used in the 1920s by E. B. Titchener, an American psychologist. Titchener's theory was that empathy stemmed from a sort of physical imitation of the distress of another, which then evokes the same feelings in oneself.这种所谓的运动神经模仿就是“同感”的原始技术含义，而“同感”这个词于20世纪20年代由美国心理学家E.B.铁钦纳首次使用。
