11、第二部分：阅读理解第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。A China has a long tradition of respecting education. But its present education is not that respectable. According to the Hurun Report, which conducted one-on-one interviews with 980 wealthy Chinese people with net assets of more than 60

12、 million yuan ($9.5 million) in 18 mainland cities from May to September, about 14 percent of them said they had either already moved overseas or had applied to do so, and another 46 percent said they planned to emigrate within three years. All cited the higher-quality education available for their

13、children overseas as the reason. Such a mindset has resulted in a growing number of Chinese students studying abroad. To be fair, our primary and high schools are a leader in content throughout the world. The Program for International Student Assessment last year offered a feather in the cap for our

14、 education. Participating in the program administered by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, teenagers in Shanghai were far in advance of their peers from 64 countries, including the United States, in reading literacy, mathematics and science. So why does education in this cou

15、ntry leave so many wealthy parents cold? Children in China have no say in what they learn. They normally learn by rote and are forced to study the subjects that help them in examinations for a school of a higher grade, especially the college entrance exams. Studies conducted by the China Youth and C

16、hildren Research Center show that more than half of Chinese secondary school students study overtime and they dont get enough sleep. And more than 70 percent of students in primary and middle schools take after-school tutoring classes, which is considered a heavy burden on children. And this situati

17、on turns many parents into demons like Wolf Father Xiao Baiyou in Guangdong province, who supported his childrens learning with verbal abuse and physical violence. Xiao doesnt pale in comparison to Tiger Mother Amy Chua in the United States. He is satisfied with his parenting skills, as he has sent

18、three of his four children to Peking University, one of Chinas most prestigious higher learning institutions. Such ways of stimulating children to learn are certainly scary enough to make those Chinese parents with deep pockets choose a foreign school for their kids. As long as exams-oriented educat

19、ion continues, parents will look overseas for a better way to educate their children. 41. How many of the wealthy Chinese interviewed were in favor of moving overseas? A. 14% of them. B. 46% of them. C. 32% of them. D. 60% of them.42. What reason was given by the interviewed for their emigration to

20、other countries? A. Better education for children. B. one-on-one public service. C. Higher standard of living. D. Increasing net assets.43. What does a feather in the cap Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. A hop. B. An honor. C. An escape. D. A challenge.44. Education in China is criticized in this

21、passage for the following flaws EXCEPT _. A. burdening children with after-school tutoring classes B. Depriving children of sleep with too much study C. forcing children to take college entrance exams D. making children learn by rote memorization45. What is the authors opinion of Wolf Father and Tig

22、er Mother parenting style? A. Supportive. B. Satisfactory. C. Stimulating. D. Scary.BShower RadioWarranty(保单)and DirectionsIntroduction Congratulations!

Such scores are used in some communities as bases for admitting able children to schools at ages younger than normal, and th

37、ey are very generally used to determine admissions to schools beyond public secondary school. Another use common in elementary schools involves comparing such scores with performances in various subjects to identify children who are working below capacity. The greatest problem in using intelligence

38、tests for the purpose of prediction is that no dependable criterion of their accuracy exists. The ideal criteria would be objective and reliable achievement tests following instruction in each subject, but there are few such tests, especially at the college level. Studies have shown that correlation

39、s(相关性) between intelligence tests and achievement tests in various subjects through secondary school range roughly from 0.5 to 0.8. Such correlations are fairly high, but they do not suggest anywhere near complete agreement. At the college level there are two major tests used as criteria of admissio

40、n. By far the more important is the College Entrance Examination, constructed by the Educational Testing Service authorized by the College Entrance Examination Board. These tests are returned to the Educational Testing Service for scoring, and the results are then made available to the various colle

41、ges authorized by the students to receive them. The second test of this type is the American College Test, which operates in essentially the same fashion. Both tests constitute measures of certain skills, abilities, and knowledge that have been found to be related to success in college. Their correl

42、ations with academic success are limited for three outstanding reasons. First, measures of achievement in college are themselves perhaps no more reliable than those in elementary and secondary schools. Second, intellectual factors do not alone determine academic success, especially at the college le

43、vel. Many students drop out of schools because they are inadequately motivated or because they dislike the instructional programme. Third, correlations are lowered because the use of such tests for denying admission to some students means that the range of scores for those admitted is restricted, an

44、d such restriction tend to reduce correlation. 50. The intelligence scores can be used in the following way EXCEPT_. A. telling in advance the degree of academic success B. admitting intelligent children to school at the age younger than ordinary C. finding out children with lower ability in primary

45、 schools D. selecting pupils by public secondary schools51. The ideal criteria in using intelligence tests for prediction should be _. A. accurate college tests B. objective and reliable achievement tests C. objective and reliable intelligence tests D. a series of objective multiple choices52. What

46、can be inferred from the second paragraph? A. Ideal criteria for objective and reliable achievement tests in college courses are hard to find. B. Intelligence test scores can accurately predict the degree of academic success. C. The correlations between intelligence tests and achievement tests are l

47、owest in college courses. D. The high correlations between intelligence tests and achievement tests in secondary school gain universal recognition.53. The results of the College Entrance Examination will be _. A. sent to the college that the students chose B. more important to the students than the

48、American College Test C. decided by the College Entrance Examination Board D. used as criteria of the American College Test54. The correlations between two college admission tests and academic success in college are limited for the reason that _. A. many students drop out of schools B. students are

49、not adequately motivated C. intellectual factors are more important for students than when they were in primary and middle schools D. measures of college achievement are unreliable like those in primary and middle schools.D Strong arguments for letting staff work from home include rising costs of of

50、fice space, time lost to stressful commuting and a slow recognition. For the small business, there are additional benefits toostaff are more productive, and happier, enabling firms to keep their employees and their employment costs to a minimum. It can also provide competitive advantage, especially

51、when small businesses want to attract new staff but dont have the budget to offer huge salaries. While company managers have known about the benefits for a long time, many have done little about it. Yet this is now changing. When communications provider Inter-tel researched the use of remote working

52、 solutions among small-and-medium-sized UK businesses in April this year, it found that 28% more companies claimed to have introduced flexible working practices than a year ago. Technology advances, including the widespread availability of broadband, which now covers almost all of the country, are m

53、aking the introduction of remote working a piece of cake. There are some very exciting developments which have enabled that. Yet while broadband has come down in price too, those service providers targeting the business market warn against consumer services masquerading（伪装）as business-friendly broad

54、band. Broadband is available for as little as 15 pounds a month, but many businesses fail to appreciate the hidden costs of such a service, says Neil Stephenson, sales and marketing director at Onyx Internet, an internet service provider based in the north-east of England. Providers offering broadba

55、nd for rock-bottom prices have a bad reputation for poor service, with regular breakdowns and heavily congested networks. It is always advisable for businesses to look beyond the price tag and look for a business-only provider that can offer more reliability, with good support. Such services dont co

56、st too muchquality services can be found for upwards of 30 pounds a month. The benefits of broadband to the occasional home worker are that they can access email in real time, and take full advantage of services such as internet-based backup or even internet-based phone services. By law, companies m

57、ust consider seriously requests to work flexibly made by a parent with a child under the age of six, or a disabled child under 18. It was the need to accommodate employees with young children that motivated accountancy firm Wright Vigar to begin promoting teleworking recently. Marketing director Jac

58、k O Hern explains that the company has a relatively young workforce, many of whom are parents: One of the reasons was when one of our tax managers returned from maternity leave. She was intending to work part time, but could only manage one day a week in the office due to childcare. By offering her

59、the ability to work from home, we have doubled her capacitynow she works a day a week from home, and a day in the office. This is great for her, and for us as we keep someone highly qualified. For Wright Vigar, which has now equipped all of its fee-earners to be able to work at maximum productivity

60、when away from the offices (whether thats from home, or while on the road), this approach is not just about saving on traffic time or cutting them loose from the office, but enabling them to work more flexible hours that fit around their home life. Although Wright Vigar hasnt yet quantified the busi

61、ness benefits, it claims that, in addition to being able to keep key staff with young families, it is able to save fee-earners a large amount of dead time in their working days. The main motivation behind adopting home working was to increase my own productivity, as a single mum to an 11-year-old, s

62、ays Hargreaves. But I soon realised that, as most of our business is done on the phone, email and at off-site meetings, we didnt need offices at all. Were now saving 16,000 pounds a year on rent, plus the cost of utilities, not to mention what would have been spent on the way.55. Which of the follow

63、ing is the benefit of remote working? A. More budget for small companies B. New employees and stable staff C. Rising costs of office space D. Time spent on the heavy traffic56. From the research conducted by the communications provider Inter-Tel, we learn that _. A. more employees work to full capac

69、hem? Sometimes we chuck that notion as absurd and unachievable. I would say not so fast. Its not the big things that make someone extraordinary. Its the small things. Things over a period of time have the power to radically change your life. They become extraordinary by making a difference in someon

70、es life. Here are some of the things extraordinary people do every day:61. _ Just because youre the boss, it doesnt mean you are right every time. It doesnt mean you have the best ideas.

You will not only gain the respect of your team mates, you will also gain credibility.63. _ Remember the time, say in school or at work when you worked really hard but

73、 got nothing in return. Not even a thank you. It hurts when your efforts are not recognized. So every chance you get to praise someone, do it. A simple That was some great work, keep it up,” can go a long way in making the employee feel great about themselves. A compliment can have a positive impact

74、 on their lives. Your team/family will love you for it.64. _ We all make mistakes, but what makes a person big is when he is ready to apologize. Dont try to hide behind excuses: I didnt mean to say it, it just happened.” I was irritated with such and such person so” No. Dont try to shift blame. Just

As I was the monitor, our teacher discussed it with me. I suggested forgiving him instead of punishing him. Then our te

81、acher talked with him and made him promise that this would never happen again. However, the classmate, to my regret, thought I had spoken ill of him behind his back and wouldnt talk with me anymore.

When he learned the truth, he apologized to me, and we became good friends again.
