Even at a subconscious(潜意识的) level, it seems people respond to eyes, and that might be because eyes send a strong biological signal we have evolved(进化) to respond to.The finding, which researchers believe sheds light on our evolutionary past, could be turned to practical use. The psychologists say images of eyes could promote ticket sales on public transport and improve monitor systems to prevent antisocial behavior.63. This passage is mainly about _.A. the policy of honesty B. an honesty box to collect moneyC. evolution on honesty D. an experiment on honesty64.

Students at Kuss have struggled, too, usually falling short of making the academic progress required under the No Child Left Behind law.Then, last year, the school experimented with extending the school day. Teachers got paid at a higher hourly rate.Students werent thrilled at first with leaving school at 4:15 p.m. instead of at 2:20 p.m. But the added hours gave them more time for physical education and let them select special interest classes. By the end of the year, student scores had risen by enough to enable Kuss to make the progress required under the federal No Child Left Behind law.The only surprise is that more districts havent lengthened school schedules set decades ago to acmodate (适应) a farm economy rather the information economy of today.New research suggests the time is ready for a change:Matched against 39 other developed countries, the United States is near the bottom in the rankings of average weekly instructional time in school. Measured over 12 years, students in the top-scoring countries spend the equivalent of a full extra year in school.US students perform poorly on math and science tests pared to their international peers, according to a US Education Department parison released earlier this month. In math, American 15-year-old scored near the bottom among the studys 30 developed countries.Most countries that boost the number of minutes spent on math instruction find pay offs in improved math scores, according to a study released this month by the Brookings Institution. Small increases in the school day are more effective than a longer school year, the report concluded.The most encouraging news about the benefits of extending the school day es from Massachusetts, where an experiment with 10 schools, including Kuss, appears to be working. Those 10 schools lengthened their instructional days by 25% and boosted their state scores in math, English and science at all grades.Perhaps the concept wont work everywhere. Certainly, it wont instantly be popular. But its obvious that a problem exists or that adding class time seems to help.67. What is the main idea of the above passage?A. Experiments with extended school hours produce academic gains.B. Kuss Middle School sets a good example for US education.C. Academic progress has achieved under the No Child Left Behind law.D. Information age calls for more instructional lime at all schools.68. A longer school day is suggested for the following reasons except that _.A. students from many developed countries spend more time at schoolB. American students do a bad job at science subjectsC. teachers are paid at a higher rate with time addedD. a longer school day works better than a longer school year69. Which statement is true of Kuss Middle School?A. Kuss Middle School lies in where a farm economy is changing to an information one.B. Kuss Middle school has joined the federal No Child Left Behind progrannC. Neither teachers nor students are happy with the longer school day.D. Adding class time functions at Kuss Middle School.70. The writer has expressed _.A. a positive attitude towards adding school timeB. a negative attitude towards adding school timeC. a changing attitude towards adding school timeD. a right attitude towards adding school time第二卷（两部分，共35分）第四部分 任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意：1. 每空格1个单词。2.所有答案写在答题纸指定位置，否则不计分。Searching for the truthCollecting and writing news is like researching in history: the best information es from those who were there at the time. So if we want to study the history of China in the sixth century AD, we look at the writings of the people who lived then. They are called the primary sources because they tell us what it was like to live then. People at a much later date who write about the same events are called the secondary sources. For example, when we read the original writings of Jia Sixie on agriculture, we are reading a primary source; when we read about Jia Sixie in our textbook we are reading secondary source because the passage was written about him and his ideas many years after he died.When we make news, we use primary and secondary sources. We can see this most clearly in TV programmes. As we watch the news on TV, the person presenting the programme in the studio is the secondary source( because he tells us about the news) and the reporter in Iraq or Washington is the primary source (because he is telling us about what is actually happening there). Without these reporters acting as primary sources, you would never find out what really happened in a war, earthquake, sports meeting, concert or festival. These reporters explain what is happening, so we have a clearer idea of what is going on there. They often take photographers with them who act as primary source by giving pictures of events.In a newspaper, the position is different because these two roles are often bined. This means a reporter who investigates a story may be the same person who writes it. If this happens, the reporter is both the primary and the secondary source. But the photographer who works with him/her is still a primary source.One of the reasons that it is important to separate primary and secondary sources is that they help us to decide what is a fact and what is an opinion. A fact is something that everybody agrees has happened. An opinion is somebodys idea of what happened. So facts and opinions are often mixed in any report, whether in a newspaper or on TV.What have you learnt from the above passage?第五部分 书面表达（满分25分）假设你是李明， 在上网时，看了网友整理的“2011年感动中国小人物”榜单，收集的人和事令你非常感动。其中“周口阿婆”的事情让你深有感触。请根据下表提示用英语写一篇短文，讲讲“周口阿婆”的故事和你的感想。周口阿婆* 祖籍河南周口的阿婆和老伴在深圳生活，住无定所；* 阿婆每晚在深圳大学附近卖画，饿了就吃两口干粮；* 10元一幅的彩笔画，一晚上也只能画好两幅；* 处境艰难但阿婆自尊心强，不愿乞讨，坚持卖画为生，自食其力。你的感想注意：1. 对所给要点逐一陈述，可适当发挥，不要简单翻译；2. 词数150左右。When surfing the Internet, I came across 泰州二中高三英语自主练习参考答案 xx0831单项选择题书面表达：
