16．Several recent studies have found that being randomly （随机地） assigned to a roommate of another race can lead to increased tolerance but also to a greater likelihood （可能性） of conflict．
Recent reports found that lodging with a student of a different race may decrease prejudice and compel students to engage in more ethnically diverse friendships．
An Ohio State University study also found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success throughout their college careers．Researchers believe this may be caused by social pressure．
In a New York Times article，Sam Roakye-the only black student on his freshman year floor-said that"if you're surrounded by whites，you have something to prove．"
Researchers also observed problems resulting from pairing interracial students in residences．
According to two recent studies，randomly assigned roommates of different race are more likely to experience conflicts so strained that one roommate will move out．
An Indiana University study found that interracial roommates were three times as likely as two white roommates to no longer live together by the end of the semester．
Grace Kao，a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings．"This may be the first time that some of these students have interacted，and lived，with someone of a different race，"she said．
At Penn，students are not asked to indicate race when applying for housing．
"One of the great things about freshman housing is that，with some exceptions，the process throws you together randomly，"said Undergraduate Assembly chairman Alec Webley．"This is the definition of integration．"
"I've experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students that have both broken down stereotypes and reinforced stereotypes，"said one Penn resident advisor （RA）．The RA of two years added that while some conflicts"provided more multicultural acceptance and melding （融合），"there were also"jarring cultural confrontations．"
The RA said that these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race．
Kao said she cautions against forming any generalizations based on any one of the studies，noting that more background characteristics of the students need to be studies and explained．

62．What can we learn from some recent studies？D
A．Conflicts between studies of different races are unavoidable．
B．Students of different races are prejudiced against each other．
C．Interracial lodging does more harm than good．
D．Interracial lodging may have diverse outcomes．
63．What does Sam Boakye's remark mean？D
A．White students tend to look down upon their black peers．
B．Black students can compete with their white peers academically．
C．lack students feel somewhat embarrassed among white peers during the freshman year．
D．Being surrounded by white peers motivates a black student to work harder to succeed．
64．What does the Indians Univerisity study show？A
A．Interracial roommates are more likely to fall out．
B．Few white students like sharing a room with a black peer．
C．Roommates of different races just don't get along．
D．Assigning students'lodging randomly is not a good policy．
65．What does Grace Kao say about interracial lodging？A
A．It is unscientific to make generalizations about it without further study．
B．Schools should be cautious when making decisions about student lodging．
C．Students'racial background should be considered before lodging is assigned．
D．Experienced resident advisors should be assigned to handle the problems．
13．Cigarette ends are everywhere-littering our streets and beaches-and for decades they've been thought of as"unrecyclable"．But a New Jersey based company，called TerraCycle，has taken on the challenge，and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products．Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse．
Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking，but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging，between 2000 and 2014，global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent，and a whole lot of those cigarette ends are ending up as trash．Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways，cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment．"It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute a liter of water，"TerraCycle founder，Tom Szaky，said．"Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food．"
So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful？TerraCycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts．They mix the remaining materials，such as the tobacco and the paper，with other kinds of rubbish，and use it on non-agricultural land，such as golf courses．The filters （过滤嘴） are a little harder．To recycle these，TerraCycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces，and then combines them with other recycled materials，making them into liquid for industrial plastic products．
They're now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent of household waste that currently can't be recycled，such as chocolate packaging，pens，and mobile phones．The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill （垃圾填埋），and then get companies to provide money for the process．And so far，it's working．

21．What does TerraCycle intend to do？D
A．Search for recyclable materials for use．
B．Deal with as many cigarette ends as possible．
C．Produce new kinds of industrial plastic products．
D．Recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable．
22．The underlined word"trash"in Paragraph 2 probably meansA．
A．rubbish
B．poison 
C．disaster  
D．ruin
23．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about？B
A．The effective use of cigarette ends．
B．The process of recycling cigarette ends．
C．The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends．
D．The reason for breaking down cigarette ends．

Our school gets wired
"By next term our school will have Wifi all over，"the teacher announced．We cheered with joy and applause．
Last semester my school embraced （引入） the Internet．We hand in our compositions online so that we can share our ideas and learn from each other．Presenting work over the Net has become quite popular．
However，many parents are worried about students'overusing the Internet on campus．After all，many of us are still deeply immersed （沉浸） in"F5"the Renren．com in class．Some are afraid to miss the latest news； some just want to jump on the bandwagon （潮流）．
To make sure students use the Internet properly，we will be given an account to log onto the Internet．Our online activities will also be monitored by the school．These measures will be effective and helpful to those who lack self-control．
Whether we have noticed or not，the Internet plays an important role in our lives．But we students need to be self-disciplined （自律的） so we can make full use of modern technology．
Opponents of WiFi in schools would have you believe that there is nothing lost by banning WiFi in schools and that the alternative to enable internet access in schools is wired internet connections．While this may sound like a reasonable compromise，it is a major step backwards for our education system．
WiFi restrictions reduce and，in some cases，eliminate access for our children to the largest educational resource ever created-the internet．It imposes limits on the types of tools our teachers can use，and negatively impacts the education of our children．

Today，more and more schools provide Wi-Fi coverage for their students，which is popular with some students，as it is beneficial to their study，but some tend to take the"Against"side．
There is no denying middle school campuses should be covered with Wi-Fi，which will promote the development of web-based education．With the aid of Wi-Fi，teachers would be able to create more interesting and vivid classes and increase their interactions with students．In this way，their teaching would become more effective and students'interest in learning would be aroused．Meanwhile，it would also be helpful for students to develop their independence and creativity．In addition，it would be more convenient for students to surf the internet to acquire the necessary knowledge for their own learning．
Of c ourse，to make sure the internet connection had a positive influence on students'studying，the school could work out technical tools to guide them．．
17．The other day，BBC broadcast its documentary（纪录片）"Are Our Kids Tough Enough？-Chinese School"，in which the British and Chinese teaching styles competed against each other，with both sides tested after four weeks to see who comes out on top．
In this unique experiment，five Chinese teachers took over a British classroom with 50teenagers aged 13and 14in a British school for one month and taught them in a typical Chinese way：no talking，no questions and experiencing the severe classroom discipline within an extended school-hour from 7a．m．to 7p．m．In the meantime，another group of students were guided in the British teaching style：free talking，free questioning，thinking for themselves and relaxing learning atmosphere．
At the end of the documentary，all the pupils took part in the same exams in a few subjects．Next is the result．

Dear Minister，
I hear that many people in your country are suggesting Britain's education system should follow China's after a BBC documentary，which reported a 4-week experiment ending up with Chinese teaching methods defeating British ones．．It is said you are collecting opinions from Chinese students．The following is my view．
Personally，I strongly advise you forget Chinese style of education．On one hand，Chinese students wining in test scores is in fact at the cost of their creative abilities and autonomy in learning．As a matter of fact，many of my classmates could do nothing without teachers'and parents'help，let alone make great innovations in their later life．On the other hand，Chinese students are suffering from a severe lack of sleep and good health，all due to the pursuit of a high score in numerous tests．Without a healthy body，nothing is meaningful．Do you really want young Britons to spend 15 to 16 hours a day on study？
Therefore，dear Minister，you should think twice if you decide to follow that suggestion．
Your sincerely，
A Chinese senior student．
