What a 36 lies in doors! No man knows what awaits him when he opens a door. 37 the most familiar room, where the clock ticks and the health glows red at dusk may harbor 38 . The worker may actually have called and 39 the leaking pipe. The cook may have been ill and demanded her passports. There are many kinds of doors. Revolving doors for hotels, shops and public buildings. They are 40 the busy, bustling ways of modern life. Can you 41 William Shakespeare or Charles Dickens skipping through a 42 door? There are double doors, sliding doors, stage doors and glass doors. The 43 and mystery of a door lies in its quality of being hidden. A glass door is not a door at all, but a window. The meaning of a door is to 44 what lies inside; to keep the heart in suspense.Also, there are many ways of opening doors. There is the cheery 45 of elbow with which the waiter opens the kitchen door. There is the sympathetic and awful 46 of the dentists maid who opens the door into the operating room and, without speaking, 47 that the doctor is ready for you.The opening of doors has in it some flavor of the 48 , some sense of moving into a new moment. Even in 49 , the opening of a door may bring relief. But the closing of doors could be 50 , A door closed brings 51 to an end. And there are degrees of sadness in the closing of doors. A door slammed is a confession of weakness. A door 52 shut may often be the most tragic gesture in life.The opening and closing of doors is a part of the serious fluency of life. Life will not stay 53 and let us alone. We are 54 opening doors with hope, closing them with despair. Life 55 not much longer than a pipe of tobacco, and destiny knocks us out like the ashes.36.

Under this system, pupils are encouraged to “discover” knowledge by themselves, working at their own speed or in small groups, with the teacher offering them support.Mr. Gibb told The Mail on Sunday: “I would like to see schools across the country use whole class teaching methods, particularly in maths and science. Research shows it is much more effective than other methods that concentrate more on personalized learning.”Mr. Gibb said: “In Shanghai primary schools, whole class teaching with all pupils taking part in question and answer activities is key to their success. All their pupils are taught the same curriculum (课程) and all are expected to reach the same high standard.”Mr. Gibbs ments have been backed by recent research, which concluded that the success of pupils in the Far East is largely down to teaching methods.Researchers also used video to analyze what was going on in lessons and found that in the Chinese classroomswhere pupils sit in rows of desks facing the front“whole class interaction” was being used 72 per cent of the time, pared with only 24 per cent in England. By contrast, the classes in England, where pupils often sit in groups, spent nearly half47 per centof their time in “individual or group work”, pared with 28 per cent in China. The research concluded: “Effective teachers spent longer time on interacting with the whole class rather than with individuals/groups or leaving pupils to independent seatwork.”56. What is the problem of the teaching method used nowadays in Britain?A. All the students are taught the same curriculum.B. Students are often left working on their own.C. Teachers often test students with hard questions.D. Teachers are too strict with their students.57. According to Mr. Gibb, the “whole class” approach is more effective because _.A. all the students take part in “question and answer” activitiesB. all the students sit in rows of desks facing the front of the classroomC. it concentrates more on personalized learning than other methodsD. students work at their own speed with the teacher offering them supportBA baby mermaid (美人鱼) was just born in Finland; Justin Bieber is getting married; iPhone 6 is going to be released this year We read rumors every day on the Internet. With the help of social media, rumors no matter whether they are true or false spread like wildfire, and sometimes we cant be sure what to believe. Now, an international group of researchers might be able to make it easier for us. They are working on a lie detector that could separate online truth from lies, Discovery News reported. Named after the Greek goddess Pheme, famed for spreading bad rumors, the system is far from a traditional lie detector, which works by attaching a machine to a potential liar. Instead, Pheme analyzes the rumor directly. When a rumor es out, on a micro blog, for example, Pheme can trace the source of information to see if it was released by reliable sources like experts or news agencies. If it wasnt, Pheme then examines the history and background of the account to identify whether it was created just to spread rumors. After finding the source of the rumor, the system can keep a close eye on how other users react to the rumor either confirming or denying it to help analyze and further determine the reliability of the information. Some people might find the Pheme system unnecessary based on the idea that false rumors never survive for long and people always get to the truth over time. While thats a fair point, there is a certain class of rumors, such as “a tiger is at large” or “an asteroid (小行星) is about to hit the Earth”, that can cause panic among people and thus lead to serious consequences. These are cases when we need to be able to check for accuracy quickly. “Our system aims to help with that, by tracking and confirming information in real time,” a leading researcher Kalina Bontcheva, at the University of Sheffield, UK, told the BBC. According to Bontcheva, Pheme is still under development and wont be ready for another 18 months. Until then, theres an old-fashioned technique that you can use to protect yourself from false information ask questions, check sources and dont believe any claim until youve seen the evidence.58. What is the article mainly about?A. Tips on how to deal with rumors online.B. Factors that make rumors so easy to spread.C. A new device that can check whether online rumors are true or not.D. An introduction to some types of lie detectors.59. How does the Pheme system determine the reliability of a piece of information?A. Based on how the majority of people react to it.B. Based on the reliability of its sources and the history of its authors.C. By collecting and examining relevant information to further confirm it.D. By making use of an “Internet bot” to track and verify the information.60. Which of the following statements might the author agree with?A. The Pheme system is not very helpful because all rumors eventually die down.B. The Pheme system will be ready to help social networks bee more accurate by the end of xx.C. The Pheme system can identify almost all kinds of rumors on social networking sites.D. The Pheme system aims to respond to rumors quickly so as to reduce the impact of false ones.CI have been passionate about sewing and fashion design since I was 12. Two years ago, I designed and made a set of outfits from recyclable materials for a charity fashion show. Through this highly meaningful and profound experience, I became aware of the importance of protecting and preserving our environment when designing and making fashion items, resulting in my founding an organization to promote eco friendly, design and fashion.My interest has led me to research areas of fashion that have environmental implications. For example , some popular clothing stores have announced marketing policies designed to improve the environment. For those of us who are eco - conscious, it is responsible for us to evaluate whether such policies are just a marketing promotion, or represent great efforts to protect our environment.Three chain - stores, H&M, Urban Outfitters and Forever 21 ,have been promoting green items. After I examined their products,! have concluded that H&M and Urban Outfitters are truly helping the environment with their efforts, while Forever 21 seems to be using the go green trend as a way to sell more products, rather than genuinely help the environment.Of these three stores, H&M has the most extensive eco -fashion plans. It is already well on its way to carrying out its plans by increasingly mixing organic cotton into their garments, as well as putting fully organic cotton items on the market. The store also belongs to the Organic Exchange Organization, which approves of growth of organic cotton. To reduce the harm from non - organic cotton production, H&M is involved with the Better Cotton Project. Mindful of the unfavorable effects of climate change, the store aims to minimize transportation and energy usage. H&M labels their eco -friendly products with an official symbol, the Flower, to represent a production system that is less harmful than most traditional processes. Because of these actions and policies, H&M is already well on its way to making a difference on the environment.With its Urban Renewal brand, Urban Outfitter takes a different approach than H&M in promoting eco - friendly fashion. The brand features women s clothes made from strictly environmentally -friendly sources, such as vintage, dead stock, or surplus clothing. Urban Renewal produces fashionable garments, and embraces being eco - friendly through recycling.Unlike the other two stores above, Forever 21 s eco - fashion efforts fall short; some people would say their message is thoroughly misleading. It promotes the green image, and yet many of their supposed eco -friendly products do not help the environment. For example, it sells a Think Green Tote that, according to the site, is meant to send an environmentally friendly message. However it is made of 100% non - organic cotton which is one of the most damaging fabrics to the environment, mostly because it requires greater chemical intervention pared to organic cotton. Also, the I Love My Planet Tote is supposed to make a positive statement, but is also made of 100% cotton that is not organic. The only tote that is environmentally - friendly is the H81 Organic Cotton Tote from Forever 21 s Heritage brand, made from 100% organic cotton. Now that Forever 21 has portrayed itself as being green, it should start walking the walk. 61. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means _.A. all the customers are trying not to walk into the Forever 21 to buy products B. the Forever 21 has already been on its way to transform its negative image C. the writer publicly urges the Forever 21 to put its campaign into practice D. the environmental problem is so serious that we should pay more attention62. Which of the following supports the authors opinion?A. The author s environmental awareness es from his shopping experiences. B. None of the three stores makes a difference on the ecological protection. C. Someone uses the go green trend just as a trick to make more profit. D. It is still a very long way before we humans will use real green products.63. The passage is developed by _. A. showing cause and effect B. giving concrete figures C. making parison and contrast D. using time order64. Which of the following statements can be the best title? A. Does the Trend of Eco
