题目内容

20．Life never seems to be going fast enough； yet，in other ways，like a race car，life seems to berushing too fast and even going out ofcontrol．

分析生活似乎从来不够快；然而，在其他方面，就像赛车，生活似乎急速行进，甚至失控．

解答答案是rushing；control；本题考查单词拼写；由race car（赛车）和too fast推断车子"rush猛冲"，根据前面的be动词判断，此处用不定式的进行式，故第一空用rushing；因为太快，故"失控"，用短语out of control；故第二空用control．

点评单词拼写必须在对语境整体理解的基础上抓住指向答案的关键线索、固定句型或搭配等，同时注意所选词的形式变化．

12．When my daughter was in the fifth grade，she came home from school almost every night with three or more hours of homework．It was my duty to help her get it done．One night she worked until midnight doing homework．
I felt annoyed，but I didn't want the teacher to think I was lazy，so I never complained．I wasn't sure，but it seemed to me that five hours of homework was a bit too much for a fifth grade student．
Later I found out that parents and educators have discussed about homework for more than a century．Parents who like more homework want to give their children every advantage to succeed in today's world．Some educators see homework as a way to help students perform better in tests．

9．Online Degrees
Today，you can earn a degree from a major university without ever having sat in one of their classrooms．Many colleges and universities are offering online courses and degree programs now．
Online Learning Programs
With a computer and an Internet connection，you can earn a degree from home，work，or anywhere else for that matter．Online degree programs follow much the same routines as traditional learning，with a few twists．There are lectures，but they won't be in person．There are assignments （作业），but you won't hand them to your instructor．In most situations，you are free to"go to class"when it fits your"schedule．If you get a phone call during class，you don't have to miss anything．If you get sick，you don't have to ask for someone's notes，and you just visit the lecture later．
You'll communicate with your instructor by e-mail，chat room and instant messaging．Your classroom will live in a special software program．Contrary to popular belief，you will have close contact with other students and the instructor．
Evaluating the Program
There are a lot of questions to ask before you make your selection，such as：
How do students interact with each other？
★Online programs can use chat rooms，instant messaging，teleconferencing，and video conferencing to communicate．The key is to find a program that has this interaction built into it and even requires it．
★What kind of reputation does the school have？
It may seem simple-a good school will have a good online program．This reputation，however，may not be as straightforward as you think．It's not uncommon for a great school to have a weak program or two．So you'd better look at the overall quality of the school and make a judgment．
The Employers'View
As more and more employees get online degrees and use them in the workforce（职场），hiring managers will begin to feel more secure about the quality of education these people have．
