This has been the subject of debate in our house. Our 11th-grade daughters summer assignments were very challenging, to the point where I sometimes wondered if more of her time would have been better spent just riding a bicycle or swimming around a pool.Here are some opinions from the panel: Harris Cooper, psychologist, Duke University: “The long summer vacation disrupts the rhythm of instruction, leads to forgetting and requires time be spent reviewing old material when students return to school in the fall. My advice? Teachers, you need to be careful about what and how much summer homework you assign. Summer homework shouldnt be expected to overe a students learning deficits; thats what summer school is for. Parents, if the assignments are clear and reasonable, support the teachers. ”Nancy Kalish, co-author of the Case Against Homework: “Schools should rethink summer homework, and not just because it stresses out kids (and parents). The truth is, homework doesnt acplish what we assume it does. According to a Duke University review of more than 175 studies, there is little or no connection between homework and standardized test score or long-term achievement in primary school.” Mark Bauerlein, professor of English at Emory University: “To the general question of whether or not schools should assign summer homework, the answer is Yes. The reason es not only from the brain drain of summer. It relates also to an attitude young people take toward education. They tie knowledge to the syllabus, not to themselves. They read and study to write the paper and score highly in the test, not to furnish their minds. In a word, they regard learning as a classroom thing. Thats all.”It seems to me that summer homework is a good idea to keep the brain cells moving, but like everything else it should be given in moderation.21. Harris Cooper seems to believe that_.A. more summer homework causes students learning difficultiesB. students should go to summer school if they have no homeworkC. teachers should give careful consideration to summer homeworkD. parents should tell teachers how much homework their kids need22. In the 4th paragraph, Nancy Kalish explains her idea by_.A. making parisonsB. giving research findingsC. raising questionsD. telling stories23. Mark Bauerlein might agree that summer homework_.A. should be based on the schools teaching programB. has no direct connection to students higher gradesC. brings more pressure to both students and their parentsD. helps students develop the right attitude toward learningBEuropes deadly outbreak of a rare form of E. coli bacteria (大肠杆菌) has brought new attention to food safety issues. One of the problems when people get sick from food is that the simplest question is often difficult or even impossible to answer. Just what did the people eat that made them sick?Of course, one way to avoid these medical mysteries is to keep dangerous organisms out of the food supply. This is easier said than done, but scientists keep looking for new ways.Scientists in the United States have developed an experimental system that uses a high-tech optical scanner. The system is designed to identify the presence of contaminants(致污物) like soil or animal waste on fresh produce. These can be sources of E. coli. E. coli bacteria naturally live in the intestines (肠) of humans and many animals. Most kinds of E. coli are harmless but some can make people sick.The new scanner can also show damage and imperfections that might make the produce unappealing to shoppers.Scientists designed the system at a Department of Agriculture research center in Beltsville, Maryland. Moon Kim of the Agricultural Research Service led the team.MOON KIM: “We were requested, we were asked, to develop a method to detect contamination in produce. So we started with the apple as the model sample.”The scanner uses a high-speed camera placed over the conveyer belt that moves the produce along. As the apples move along the belt, the scanner captures images of each piece of fruit.Moon Kim says the team hopes the system will be available before long.MOON KIM: “We are targeting for development in mercial plants for the next several years.”The scanner can direct a sorting machine to separate the bad apples from the good ones. The system is currently able to show the surface of only half the apple as it speeds by. The inventers hope to improve the process so it can show the whole surface.24. What is the main topic of the text?A. Bacteria B. A high-tech scanner C. A camera D. Food safety25. E. coli bacteria _.A. broke out all over the world B. es from soil or animal wasteC. is extremely harmful to health D. does not cause illness26. The high-tech scanner _.A. can help to sort out different fruitsB. make the produce appeal to shoppersC. can only capture images of the whole appleD. can identify the presence of contaminants27. What can be inferred from the text?A. The scanner needs to be improved.B. The scanner will be available in the next several years.C. Moon Kim is unwilling to develop the scanner.D. The scanner is connected to a sorting machine.CGET YOUR DEGREE AT HOME! Have you ever wondered what a Degree might be worth to you in your job or career?

The method relies on measuring how chemical variations in drinking water show up in peoples hair. “Youre what you eat and drink, and thats recorded in your hair,” said Thure Cerling, a geologist at the University of Utah. While U.S diet is relatively identical, water supplies vary. The differences result from weather patterns. The chemical position of rainfall changes slightly as rain clouds move.Most hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water are stable, but traces of both elements are also present as heavier isotopes (同位素). The heaviest rain falls first. As a result, storms that form over the Pacific deliver heavier water to California than to Utah.Similar patterns exist throughout the U.S. By measuring the proportion of heavier hydrogen and oxygen isotopes along a strand of hair, scientists can construct a geographic timeline. Each inch of hair corresponds to about two months. Cerlings team collected tap water samples from 600 cities and constructed a map of the regional differences. They checked the accuracy of the map by testing 200 hair samples collected from 65 barber shops. They were able to accurately place the hair samples in broad regions roughly corresponding to the movement of rain systems.“Its not good for pinpointing(精确定位),” Cerling said. “Its good for eliminating many possibilities.”Todd Park, a local detective, said the method has helped him learn more about an unidentified woman whose skeleton was found near Great Salt Lake.The woman was 5 feet tall. Police recovered 26 bones, a T-shirt and several strands of hair.When Park heard about the research, he gave the hair samples to the researchers.Chemical testing showed that over the two years before her death, she moved about every two months.She stayed in the Northwest, although the test could not be more specific than somewhere between eastern Oregon and western Wyoming.“Its still a substantial area,” Park said “But it narrows it way down for me.”32. What is the scientists new discovery? A. Ones hair growth has to do with the amount of water they drink.B. A persons hair may reveal where they have lived.C. Hair analysis accurately identifies criminal suspects. D. The chemical position of hair varies from person to person. 33. What does the author mean by “Youre what you eat and drink” (Line 1, Para.3)?A. Food and drink affect ones personality development.B. Food and drink preferences vary with individuals.C. Food and drink leave traces in ones body tissues. D. Food and drink are essential to ones existence. 34. WhatdidCerlingsteamproduceintheirresearch?A. Amapshowingtheregionaldifferencesoftapwater.B. Acollectionofhairsamplesfromvariousbarbershops.C. Amethodtomeasuretheamountofwaterinhumanhair.D. Achartillustratingthemovementoftherainsystem.35. What is the practical value of Cerlings research?A. It helps analyze the quality of water in different regions. B. It helps the police determine where a crime is mitted.C. It helps the police narrow down possibilities in detective work.D. It helps identify the drinking habits of the person under investigation.第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。In 1930, a young African American, Vivien T.
