He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem，while the student claimed a perfect score. I was elected as their arbiter. I read the examination problem：“Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(气压计).” The student had answered：“Take the barometer to the top of the building，attach a long rope to it，lower it to the street，and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of it is the height of the building. ” The student had really answered the question pletely, but the answer didnt confirm his petence in physics. I suggested the student try again. I gave him six minutes to answer the question, warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. Five minutes later, he said he had many answers and clashed off one, which read： “Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula (公式）to calculate the height of the building. ” At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldnt help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others ，and then added “Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him， Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, I will give it to you.，” Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did, but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think. The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.21. The student got a zero at the beginning because_.A. the teacher wasnt satisfied with himB. his answer wasnt plete or correctC. his answer didnt show his knowledge of physicsD. the teacher clicln5t fully understand his answer22. We know from the passage that_A. the teacher was a very stubborn personB. the administrator told Bohr the heightC. the author preferred Bohr s last answerD. the student knew the expected answer23. We can learn from the passage that_.A. instructors can teach students how to thinkB. students should be given more freedom in thinkingC. arbiters can help students to get high scoresD. teachers should make students use physical formulasB It is often necessary to release a fish, that is, set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just dont want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive to bite again another day.When catching a fish, play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible. Dont use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying.Hold the fish gently. Do not put your fingers in its eyes. Dont wipe the scales (鱼鳞) off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival.Remove your hook (鱼钩) quickly. If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach, cut the line and leave the hook in. The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish.Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water . Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim.Do not hold fish in a bucket or some other containers and later decide to release it. If you are going to release a fish, do so right away.With a little care and by following the suggestions given above, you can give the released fish a better chance of survival.24. People sometimes set a fish free after catching it because they _A. dont want it to die B. hope it will grow quicklyC. dont want to have it as food D. want to practice their fishing skills25. Which of the following will probably make a fish ill?A. Taking the hook off it. B. Removing its scales.C. Touching its eves D. holding it in your hand.26. A proper way to release a fish is to _.A . move it in water till it can swim B. take the hook out of its stomachC. keep it in a bucket for some time D. let it struggle a little in your hand27. What is the purpose of the text?A. To show how to enjoy fishing. B. To persuade people to fish less often.C. To encourage people to set fish free. D. To give advice on how to release fish.CT-shirts out; uniforms in School uniforms are being more and more popular across the U.S.A. Thats no surprise, because they offer many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling (标记) that e from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes. Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers; school uniforms tear those barriers down. As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she bees, for a time, the symbol of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education. Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their childrens “creativity.” First, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express the individuality . They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While theyre in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and math; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.28. From the passage we learn that uniforms in general .A. prevent the wearers from being laughed atB. help the wearers keep their duties in mindC. are seen as a symbol of powerD. help to create social barriers29. Some people are against school uniforms because .A. they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniformsB. they believe that uniforms will make students less creativeC. they dont agree that uniforms can remove social barriersD. they think that school uniforms are too popular30. The author would probably agree that.A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or notB. students individuality may not e from school educationC. students creativity is related to the clothes they chooseD. school uniforms help to create equality among students31. School uniforms are being more and more popular and important because _A. they can stop the powerful social sorting and labeling.B. if all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing.C. uniforms can remind the wearers of their purposes and dutiesD. school uniforms will affect their childrens creativity.D Have you ever received a gift that was so clearly not your taste that you wondered if perhaps it had been handed to you by mistake? Worse, have you ever given a present and watched your friend look as though she had opened the wrong box? Maybe she responded with a polite Why, thank you, but you knew you had missed the mark. Why do presents sometimes go wrong? And what do your choices (good and bad） reflect about your personal qualities? Choosing the right gift is an art, I believe. It calls for empathy the ability to put yourself into someone elses head and heart .Were all able to do this; in fact, were born with a kind of natural empathy. After the earliest period of childhood, however, it needs to be reinforced (加强）by our parents, teachers, friends. When it isnt, were not able to understand other peoples feelings as sharply. This can show in the gifts we select, and so can many other emotional (情感的） qualities.Think back to the presents youve given over the past year, the time and effort you put into your selection, how much you spent, your thoughts while you were shopping, and your feelings when the receiver opened the package. Keep in mind that what you choose displays your inner world. Of course, you may express yourself differently with different friends, relatives, and other people you know.We live in a society where exchanging presents is an important part of munication. Ignoring the tradition wont make it go away. If you really dislike such a tradition, tell your friends ahead of time.32. The underlined expression you had missed the mark means you had failed to _.A. get the expected effect B. keep your friendshipC. receive a present in return D. make her feel better33. Which of the following is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Natural empathy needs to be reinforced.B. Choosing gifts requires one to understand the receivers.C. Selecting the right gift is an ability people are born with.D. Emotional changes influence ones choice of gifts.34. In the third paragraph, the author tells us that_.A. attention should be paid to the receivers responsesB. one learns from what he did in the pastC. the choice of gifts reflects ones emotional qualitiesD. one should spend more time choosing gifts35. The best possible title for this passage is “_”.A. Ways of Choosing Gifts B. An Important TraditionC. Exchanging Presents D. Message in a Gift第二小节（共5题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence. They can be exciting films but sometimes all you want is a little light-hearted entertainment. Have you heard of Bollywood? All singing, all dancing and unrealistic, it is the perfect alternative to normal Hollywood movies. Bollywood is the Indian film industry, based in Mumbai, formerly known Bombay. 36 Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world. This year the Indian Filmgare Awards, Bollywoods Oscars, turn 50 years old. The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients: a cup of romance, a tea-spoon of edy, a dash of international sight-seeing, served with a huge slice of singing and dancing. There will also be one brave hero, one beautiful heroine and one baddie. 37 Bollywood films are full of ideal things and free of daily worries. 38 The actors change clothes and locations within a single song. But the audience dont mind. To Indian movie lovers, especially the poor, such films are a gateway to heaven and the stars are their gods. The films take them to a magical world away from their everyday troubles. The films tell them the impossible is possible and that true love conquers all. 39 Behind the beautiful scenes, Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values. In most films, if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage, they cant just run away. They must win over their parents.
