With lower-quality lenses(透镜)

27、 and image sensors, smartphones probably wont replace professional video cameras anytime soon. Still, some creative filmmakers are extending the borders of smartphone moviemaking by shooting professional-quality films using only smartphones.Soon after Apples iPhone 4 was released, two filmmakers dec

28、ided to make a short film using only their iPhone 4s. Michael Koerbel and Anna Elizabeth James shot and edited the one-and-a-half-minute film Apple of My Eye in only 48 hours. Audiences were fascinated with the film, in which a man and his grandfather connect emotionally while admiring a model train

29、 set in a store window. The filmmakers followed up their success with Goldilocks, an extraordinary spy novel told over nine, three-minute films.Many filmmakers are convinced that smartphone films are here to stay. One sign is their inclusion in major film festivals. In February 2012, organizers of t

Entries included Oliver by Hooman Khalili, an award-winning film about a girl whose special powers enable her to brighten the lives of three lonely people. Another entry was Yearlapse11, a 365-second film by Zsolt Haraszt

31、i that describes an actual journey he made from New York to London.During the festival, which ran from February 16 to 26, these and many other smartphone films were shown at the Beacon Cinema in Pittsfield, Massachusetts.

CDoes solving a math problem give you a headache? Do you feel nervous when you sit a math exam? For most students, mat

43、h can be tough but scientists have proved that math problems can actually trigger physical pain.Scientists came to his conclusion with an in-depth experiment, which was published in the Public Library of Science One journal. They began by finding out how much participants fear math. Those involved w

44、ere asked a series of questions such as how they feel when they receive a math textbook or when they walk into a math lesson.Based on their answers, participants were divided into groups. One group was made up of people who were particularly afraid of math and participants in the other group were mo

45、re comfortable with the subject.Both groups were then given either math tasks or word tasks. When a math task was going to come next, a yellow circle would appear but when a word task was soon to come, a blue square would be shown.Using a brain-scan machine, scientists noticed that whenever people f

46、rom Group One saw a yellow circle, their brain would respond in a way similar to when their body is feeling pain. It was like the pain they would fee, for example, if they burnt their hand on a hot stove. But they reacted less strongly when they knew that they would be faced with a word task.However

47、, scientists saw no strong brain response from people in the second group.Math can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMA), math is associated with tension, apprehension and fear. “When you are really thinking about the math problems, your mind is racing and you are

48、 worrying about all the things that could go wrong,” explained Ian Lyons from University of Chicago, US, leader of the study. “The higher a persons anxiety of a maths task, the more he activated brain regions associated with threat detection, and the experience of pain.”More interestingly, the brain

49、 activity disappeared when participants actually started dealing with the math tasks. “This means that its not that math itself hurts; rather, the anticipation of math is painful,” Lyons said.Based on the study, scientists suggested that things could be done to help students worry less and move past

50、 their fear of math, which might mean they perform better in tests.63. In the first stage, scientists ask participants some questions to _.A. see whether math hurtsB. find out how much they fear mathC. observe how their brain responseD. test their endurance of pain64. The underlined word “the anicip

51、ation of math” is closest in meaning to .A. the attempt of learning math B. the motivation to work out math problemC. the effort to understand math D. the act of thinking about math65. Which is the best title for the passage?A. How to overcome math fear. B. Physical pain affects math performance.C.

52、Math pain in your brain. D. Unknown truth about pain.66. What can be concluded from the experiment?A. The anticipation of math has no relation to students confidence in math. B. Moderate mathematic anxiety promotes students academic performance.C. Effective solutions have been worked out to lower st

53、udents anxiety of math.D. Physical pain caused by HMA disappears in the process of doing math problem.D As we drove along, my spirits went up again, and I turned, with pleasure, to the thought of the new life which I was entering. But though it was not far past the middle of September, the heavy clo

54、uds and strong north-easterly wind combined to make the day extremely cold; and the journey seemed a very long one, so that it was nearly one oclock before we reached the place of our destination. Yet when we entered the gateway, my heart failed me, and I wished it were a mile or two farther off. Fo

55、r the first time in my life I must stand alone: there was no retreating now. I must enter that house, and introduce myself among its strange people. But how was it to be done? True, I was near nineteen; but, thanks to the protecting care of my mother and sister, I well knew that many a girl of fifte

56、en, or under, was gifted with a more womanly address, and greater ease and self-possession, than I was. Yet, anyway, I would do very well, after all; and the children, of course, I should soon be at ease with them.Be calm, be calm, whatever happens, I said within myself; and truly I was so fully occ

57、upied in steadying my nerves and keeping down the rebellious beat of my heart that when I was admitted into the hall and into the presence of Mrs. Bloomfield, I almost forgot to answer her polite greeting; and it afterwards struck me that the little I did say was spoken in the tone of one half-dead

58、or half-asleep. With due politeness, however, she showed me my bedroom, and left me there to take a little refreshment for a little while and led me into the dining-room. Some beefsteaks and potatoes were set before me; and while I dined upon these, she sat opposite, watching me (as I thought) and t

59、rying to keep something like a conversation consisting chiefly of commonplace remarks. In fact, my attention was almost wholly absorbed in my dinner: not from appetite, but from the toughness of the beefsteaks, and the numbness of my hands. “I have had so little time to attend to their education mys

60、elf, but I think they are clever children, and very willing to learn, especially the little boy; he is, I think, the flower of the flock a generous, noble-spirited boy, one to be led, but not driven, and remarkable for always speaking the truth.” “His sister Mary Ann will require watching,” continue

61、d she, “but she is a very good girl on the whole, though I wish her to be kept out of the nursery as much as possible, as she is now almost six years old, and might acquire bad habits from the nurses. I have ordered her bed to be placed in your room, and if you will be so kind as to look after her w

62、ashing and dressing, and take charge of her clothes, she needs to have nothing further to do with the nursery maid.”I replied I was quite willing to do so; and at that moment the children entered the room. Tom Bloomfield was a well-grown boy of seven. Mary was a tall girl, for her age of six, somewh

63、at dark like her mother. The second sister was Fanny, a very pretty little girl, looking little younger than Mary. The remaining one was Harriet, a little broad, fat, merry, playful thing of scarcely two, whom I had more desire for than all the rest but with her I had nothing to do.67. Which of the

64、following statements best describes how the writer felt when she entered Mrs. Bloomfields home? A. She was nervous, dissatisfied with her manners but still confident. B. She was cold, hungry but eager to see all the children in the family. C. She was frightened, nervous and regretful about her decis

A family teacher.69. Which of the following was TRUE according to the passage? A. The writer had some difficulty wi

All the children were well educated before the writer came to the family. D. All the children in the family were looked after by Mrs Bloomfield herself.70. From

67、the passage, we can infer that _. A. Mrs Bloomfield would treat the writer kindly and help her a lot B. The youngest girl Harriet would be the writers favorite student C. the writer would take on more responsibilities than she should D. Tom Bloomfield would be the cleverest of all the children四、任务型读

A discussion map is a graphic tim

69、eline created by the teacher on which a discussion is recorded - who initially states the idea and who adds to or refuses the idea.Discussion maps let teachers gain a deep understanding of students level of participation, the origins of ideas, and the claims that seem meaningful, useful, and/or reas

70、onable to students. They also give the teacher an idea of students science thoughts of phenomena and ideas.To make a discussion map, the teacher needs to do a couple of things. First, the teacher needs to keep informed of the ideas that are shared and who shared the idea. The teacher does this as th

71、e children talk, making quick notes of the ideas and thoughts. It can be helpful to record the discussion, but it isnt required. Then, after the discussion is over, the teacher reflectively creates the discussion map to clarify the understanding of the ideas and connections that students were making

72、 in their talk.Educators have identified discussions as consistent with reform recommendations in that they help children learn about the nature science and are useful in combining literacy and science. It is suggested that discussions can be useful for teachers in evaluating students ideas and buil

73、ding excitement as science. Discussions offer windows on students thinking, provide students who struggle in reading and writing with a chance to participate more actively in class, and create situations where students can express their ideas differently than in traditional schools tasks.However, I

74、suggest that there are additional reasons for having reasoned discussions in classrooms. First, discussions like this allow students to use their own vocabulary - the words and terms that make sense to them and their classmates - to drive the intellectual and academic work of understand phenomena. M

75、any times learning science can become focused on learning terms but not necessarily understanding and explaining phenomena. Second, discussions allow students to think about their experiences and the things that they know and try to reconcile these with science ideas. This is challenging, but workin

76、g together with classmates can help. Finally, reasoned discussions are fundamentally scientific because they offer an open forum that allows all students to be heard, and students ideas can be evaluated and connected to their experiences with scientific explanations of those phenomena. For example,

77、during the childrens reasoned discussion about plants, the group came to the agreement that seeds grow into plants. The students understood that most seeds get buried in the ground, the seeds get wet, and then plants grow. This led to a question about whether the seed was still in the ground when th

78、e plant had grown into an adult plant. The students came up with several ideas about where the seeds were. During this conversation, the teacher took careful notes so that later investigations could respond to the questions that children were asking. Thus the students were working together using the

79、ir ideas and understandings and realized something as a group that they didnt understand as individuals.Discussion maps make sense!Passage outlineSupporting detailsThe (71)_ of a discussion mapA discussion map is a graphic timeline the teacher creates to record a discussion by initially (72)_ the id
