29、ring tests as a way to cheat.The Magnolia Independent School district in Montgomery County has added camera phones to a list of electronic devices students are banned from having at school.School officials said the move was made as a preventative measure to stop potential test cheaters, since studen

30、ts could use the phones to snap pictures of test questions. Another concern was that students might take inappropriate(不合适的) pictures of classmates to later share or post on a Website. Cell phones without cameras are allowed on campus, but must be turned off. Camera cell phones will be confiscated(没

31、收) if found on campus, and disciplinary action will be taken, officials said.Some students were disheartened to hear about the ban. “Id be lost without my phone,” said Kendall Paul, a Magnolia High School student. “All my numbers are in it. Ive never used it to cheat and I dont know anyone who has a

32、t our school, so I think its kind of stupid.” But other students said they saw it all the time at their school.“You would take a picture of the test and then send it to the next person taking the test,” said Melissa Sparks, a student.“They would send the question and the answer, or just the number o

33、f the question and the answer. Its quicker that way,” another student said.Parents often provide their children with cell phones for use in emergencies and to deep better track of them. “My Mom wants me to have my phone with me at all times for emergence purpose. So, it goes with me wherever I go,”

34、Paul said.66According to this passage, which of the following statement is true?ACell phone cant be taken into the School District.BThe students parents are in favor of the ban.CStudents have different opinions about the ban.DStudents can use cell phones without camera freely at school.67The writer

46、provide language exercises.CMichael, a typical(典型的) American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal computer terminal in order to connect with the office. After work, he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder, or plays baseball on the computer. On many days,

47、Michael doesnt talk to any other human beings, and he doesnt see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from contract with our fellow human beings.The world of business is one a

48、rea in which technology is isolating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their jobs at display terminals in their own homes. They would n

49、ever have to actually see the people theyre dealing with. In addition, the way employees are paid will change. Workers salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts(账户), making paper checks(支票) unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks. Perso

50、nal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts.Another area that technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for instance, was once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For ma

51、ny people now, however music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many

52、more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home. Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.73After work, Michael likes to _.Alisten to music at the concert hallBwatch a movie in his living roomCrun a prog

53、ram on his computer in his officeDplay baseball with his workmates74Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?AClerks will able to work at home.

54、entence “Michael is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible” means _.AMichael is a person full of imagination and he can make his dreams come trueBMichael is not a real person but the lifestyle does existCMichael has ambitions but he cant make his dreams come trueDMichael is a person full of i

55、magination and his lifestyle is common nowadays76What is the main idea of the passage?AWe may no longer need to communicate with other human begins.BModern technology seems to be separating human beings.CWe may no longer need to work in the office.DModern technology makes it possible for us to work

56、and entertain ourselves at home.DFor the person keeping a diary, whatever he experiences and wants to think about, he can write it down. But to get it down on paper begins another adventure. For he has to focus on what he has experienced and to be able to say what, in fact the experience is. What of

57、 it is new? What of it is remarkable? Is it a good or bad thing to have happened? And why, specifically(特别的，具体的)? The questions add to themselves quickly. As one tries to find the words that are best for this experience, the experience becomes even more clear in its shape and meaning.Beyond the valu

58、e of the diary as a record, there is the value of the training it gives. The diary keeper begins to pay closer attention to what happens to and around himself. He develops and sharpens his skills of observation. He learns the usefulness of languages as a means of showing what he sees, and gains skil

59、l and certainty in the expression of his experiences. To have given up ones experience to words is to have begun marking out the limits and its possible meaning. In the journal that meaning is developed and becomes clear.77The writer thinks of keeping a journal as _.Aan ordinary habitBan adventureCa

60、 discoveryDan observation78When one keeps a journal, he has to _.Aconsider the others experience.Bsharpen his ability to find the best words.Cfocus on his experienceDwrite a paper79According to the writer, keeping a journal is good for _.Aobservation and expressionBcertainly and trainingCexperience

61、and adventureDconsideration and development80By keeping a journal, one can _.Adevelop the usefulness of languageBdevelop his memoryCmake what he thinks about clear to everyoneDhave a thorough understanding of his experience81The passage is mainly about _.Ahow to write a journalBthe expressions of a

62、journalCthe values of keeping a journalDhow to solve the problems in a journal2,4,6EAllen: Ive never been a big fan of the bears, especially the vacation show. On my last trip to Disneyland(1999) we passed it by, because we didnt want to spend the time on something we didnt really enjoy. If wed know

63、n it would be closed by our next visit. Im sure we would have watched it one more time. I was just making the point that it wasnt until Disney announced the closing that this feeling suddenly sprang(弹跳) up for the Country Bear show at Disneyland.But I think the idea of keeping some attractions open

64、forever regardless of the number of visitors it gets is a mistake. We all have great memories of the Bears, but clearly very few kids today (or I should say families today) are making those same memories from this show. That may be a sad fact, but its a fact. For whatever reason, the show doesnt pul

65、l in the numbers. Isnt it right to use the Country Bear space to bring in a more popular attraction so that more kids today can make those magic memories of an attraction they like? Otherwise arent we just telling kids today that they “have to” make great memories of the Bears, when its obvious that

66、 the kids themselves are not enjoying the Bears like we did?Roger: I am very disappointed that they have decided to retire the Country Bear Playhouse. I remember going to the show as a child, and still enjoyed it as a teenager, and now young adult. It is true that there arent a lot of shows left at

67、DL and with this one closing even less. Being at DL does require a lot of walking, and it is nice to have a few attractions that are a place to sit and enjoy a good show. I understand that DL has to develop, but there has to be some history to the Disneyland that Walt Disney first designed. There sh

68、ould be some parts of DL that just never go away, and this is one of them. By the time I have children it looks like there wont be any attractions that I can say I went to as a child at the rate they are going.Now the Bears are leaving. What I want to say is: stop trying to compete with everyone! DL

69、 is the best, because of attractions like the Country Bears. If DL insists on destroying all of its magic to make way for the latest, well, then it might as well be just another theme park.82What news might get people talking about the problem of the Country Bears?AThe Country Bear Playhouse will be

70、 closed.BThere will be a new attraction for our guests at Disneyland.CThe number of visitors to the Country Bear Playhouse is falling.DThe Bears will retire because of old age and cant give shows any more.83Allen spoke mainly to get his point across that _.Athe Bears will be missedBwe should tell ki

71、ds today that they “have to” make great memories of the BearsCthe longtime attraction ought to make way for a future attractionDpeople never care about what they have until all is lost84Which is the best choice to complete Rogers idea: “The Country Bears have been a part of Disneyland for nearly 30

72、years, _.”Aand I feel it is time to give our bears a good restBbut anyway, the attraction has lost interestCbut I know that Disneyland will always be changing, and I accept thatDand I am sad that the Bears will be leaving85Where can this passage be found?AIn a Web discussion zone.BIn a suggestion bo
