24、d of a woman to do that. I got a taste of that dream in 2011,when my husband arranged for me to ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time ,I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community（社区）announced that t

25、hey were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went

26、by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldnt believe it. Inspired by this, I decided to realize my dream, even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it.One June 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my f

27、amily and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasnt frightenedI was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reached 13

28、,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the para

29、chute（降落伞）, then we just floated downward for about five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever feltmuch better than the hot air balloon. I was just enjoying it.Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people

33、ange and style of articles we publish. You will discover that our focus has broadened to include well-researched, timely and informative articles on finance, home improvement, travel, humor, and many other fields.The Posts goal is to remain unique, with content that provides additional understanding

Payment ranges from $25 to $400.Our nonfiction needs include how-to, useful articles on gardening, pet care and training, financial planning, and subjects of interest to

40、tion articles CStudents and Technology in the ClassroomI love my Blackberryits my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thought. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to

41、 move away from these devices（设备）and truly communicate with others.On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material

42、and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom. I have a rule no laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students mi

43、susing technology. Theres a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. Theres no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are v

44、ery few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push

45、each other to think differently and to make connections between the course the material and the class discussion.Ive been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the educations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create .Students realize that with deep conversat

46、ion and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.Im not saying that I wont ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change. Im sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free

47、dialogue is just too sweet to give up.63Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with_Athe course material Bothers misuse of technology Cdiscussion topics Dthe authors class regulations64The underlined word “engage ”in Para.4 probably means _.Aexplore Baccept CchangeDreject 65According

48、 to the author ,the use of technology in the classroom may _.Akeep students from doing independent thinking Bencourage students to have in-depth conversationsChelp students to better understand complex themes Daffect students concentration on course evaluation66It can be inferred from the last parag

49、raph that the author _Ais quite stubborn Bwill give up teaching history Cwill change his teaching plan soon Dvalues technology-free dialogues in his class DAs the railroads and the highways shaped the American West in the past centuries, a new electrical generating（发电）and transmission（输送）system for

50、the 21st century will leave a lasting mark on the West, for better or worse. Much of the real significance of railroads and highways is not in their direct physical effect on the scenery, but in the ways that they affect the surrounding community. The same is true of big solar plants and the power l

51、ines that will be laid down to move electricity around.The 19th century saw land grants（政府拨地）offered to railroad companies to build the transcontinental railroads, leaving public land in between privately owned land. In much of the West, some of the railroad sections were developed while others rema

52、ined undeveloped, and in both cases the landownership has presented unique challenges to land management. With the completion of the interstate highway system, many of the small towns, which sprang up as railway stops and developed well, have lost their lifeblood and died.Big solar plants and their

53、power lines will also have effects far beyond their direct footprint in the West. This is not an argument against building them. We need alternative energy badly, and to really take advantage of it we need to be able to move electricity around far more readily than we can now.So trade-offs will have

54、 to be made. Some scenic spots will be sacrificed. Some species（物种）will be forced to move, or will be carefully moved to special accommodations. Deals will be struck to reduce the immediate effects.The lasting effects of these trade-offs are another matter. The 21st century development of the Americ

55、an West as an ideal place for alternative energy is going to throw off a lot of power and money in the region. There are chances for that power and money to do a lot of good. But it is just as likely that they will be spent wastefully and will leave new problems behind, just like the railroads and t

56、he highways.The money set aside in negotiated trade-offs and the institutions that control it will shape the West far beyond the immediate footprint of power plants and transmission lines. So lets remember the effects of the railroads and the highways as we construct these new power plants in the We

60、itical thinking? To a certain degree, its a matter of logic（逻辑）of being able to spot weaknesses in other peoples arguments and to avoid them in your own. It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.In the broad sense, critical thin

61、king is focused, organized thinkingthe ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas. 71 The greatest thinkers, scientists, and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas. That, too, is critical thanking. 72 As the cl

62、ass goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal at time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical（机械的）exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also dis

63、ordered and confused. If, on the other hand, the structure is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have 73 What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. 74 As you work on expressing

64、your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately. 75 As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class, you will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you wi

65、ll be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.ARather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.BThis may seem like a lot of time, but th

66、e rewards are well worth it.CIt may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.DIt has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.EIf you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.FTh

67、e skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of waysGAs you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking ,you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.第四部分：书面表达（共两节，35分）第一节 情景作文（20分）假设你是红星中学高二（1）班的学生李华。下面四幅图表述了近期发生在你们班的一个真实故事，请根据图片的先后顺序，为校刊“英语园地”写一篇短文，次数不少于60。 第二节 开放作文（15分）请根据下面提示，写一篇短文，词数不少于50.In your spoken English class, your teacher shows you the following picture.
