I love my iPhone---it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my computer, as it stores all of my writing and thoughts. Though I love these devices(装置) of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from them and truly communicate with others.
I teach history in a high school. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes(主题) and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and share their ideas with each other in the classroom. I have a rule---no computers, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule before class, some of them were not happy at all.
Most students think that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students believe that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.
The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations. Interruptions(打断) by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and to make connections between the course material and the class discussion.
I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and students realize that with deep conversation, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.
I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.
【小题1】What’s the second paragraph mainly about?
A．The reasons why students should use computers or iPads in class.
B．The advantages of using cell phones and computers in the classroom.
C．What the writer is trying to do and what rule has been made in class.
D．A new learning style that the teacher enjoys using in history class.
【小题2】According to the writer, the use of technology in the classroom may _____.
A．improve teaching and offer more help
B．allow students to get on well with each other
C．help students concentrate on what they learn
D．keep students from making deep conversations
【小题3】What can we infer from the passage?
A．The teacher will carry on the success in the future.
B．The teacher will have to cancel the rule in class.
C．Some students will be punished according to the rule.
D．More and more students will be absent in history class.

Once a baby cries, the parents will go to see what happened as soon as possible. According to a new study, a baby’s cry can make adults react very quickly, even if they are not related(相关的).
Oxford University researchers used a game called Whack-a-mole for the study. The game needs people to hit one buttons(按钮). The players must react as quickly as they can to hit the button that lights up at random(随机的). It is a game that requires speed and accuracy(准确度).
The study included 40 men and women volunteers aged 19 to 59. Some of them had sons or daughters but none had a baby at the time. They played whack-a-mole after listening to different sounds, including babies’ crying, the crying of adults in trouble and birds’ song that sounds like babies’ crying.
The volunteer’ scores  were higher after listening to the sound of crying babies. Men and women had similar scores. The results showed that a crying baby gets special attention.
“Few sounds make people react quite like the cry of a baby,” said Morten Kringelbach of Oxford’s psychiatry department, who led the study.
He added that a baby’s cry can increase adults’ heart rate and blood pressure. This is understandable, because in the course of human evolution(进化), taking care of babies has always been an important job for adults. When a baby is hungry or feeling bored or unwell, it will cry. As a result, human brains and bodies develop a special reaction to a baby’s cry.
【小题1】According to the passage, how many volunteers took part in the study?

A．80B．40 C．19D．59
【小题2】In the passage, the underlined word react means__________.
A．表演B．打击C．反应D．演示
【小题3】The game “whack-a-mole” shows__________.
A．a baby’s cry can get special attention from adults
B．men and women have different reaction speed and accuracy
C．adults without babies react more quickly to a baby’s cry
D．women react to a baby’s cry more quickly than men
【小题4】According to the passage, a baby’s cry__________.
A．can get the same attention from adults as the birds’ song
B．is the noisiest sound
C．can increase adults’ heart rate and blood pressure
D．is good for its health
【小题5】From the last paragraph, we learn that_________.
A．taking care of the younger babies was the most important thing in the past
B．human brains and bodies have developed to take care of babies
C．baby cries are a good way make adults react quickly
D．baby cries have developed a lot during the course of human evolution

 

Most students think my reasons for this rule include negative experiences in the past when students made wrong use of technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. I’ve seldom had students make wrong use of technology in my classes; however, I have been e-mailed by students while they were in other teachers’ classrooms.

Some students think that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. As I noted above, I love technology and try to keep up with it.

The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations. Interruptions (中断) by technology often break students’ thoughts and make them depend too much on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep in themselves for ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and to make connections between the course material and the class discussion.

I have been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations (评价) show student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize with deep conversation and difficult tasks, they learn at a deeper level – a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.

I am not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I will continue my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.
