20.Queensland is one of the most amazing states in Australia.It has some of the most beautiful natural scenery on the planet,with the Great Barrier Reef,rainforests and impressive beaches.
The Great Barrier Reef
It is one of the world's largest natural features.It stretches more that 2,300km along the north eastern coast of Australia from the northern tip of Queensland to just north of Bundaberg.The things that most surprise visitors to the reef are the colors.
Without doubt,the best way to see the Great Barrier Reef is by diving.If you have a little extra money and you are feeling a bit lazy,you can fly over the reef in a plane.
Fraser Island
Another area of natural beauty is Fraser Island.This is the world's largest sand island.It's best visited from Hervey Bay on the mainland,where there are a number of places offering trips around the island.To fully appreciate Fraser Island you should go for three or four days.Attractions include some beautiful fresh-water lakes,particularly Lake Wabby and Lake Mckenzie.You can walk around these on white sands untouched by human footprints.Indian Head also has some beautiful views.Braver travelers can go and watch sharks circling the water hundreds of meters below.
The Whitsunday Islands
It would be a pity to travel around Queensland without taking a trip around the Whitsunday Islands.They were named by Captain Cook in 1770,after the day on which he arrived.Here are some of the great things you can do there.
●Cruise around them on a relaxing trip.
●Take a sailing course.
●Look at the aboriginal (土著的) paintings in caves on Hook Island.
●Have fun in the water doing lots of water sports.
So,will you be going to Queensland?

7.Leanne is one of the students studying through online degree programs.She chose to study online for many of the same reasons that other students do.She was working full-time,and did not want to move away from her job and family to continue her education.Leanne liked that she was able to study whenever and however much she wanted.
But while the program met her needs at first,Leanne felt there were things she did not get from studying online.Later,she earned her undergraduate degree from a traditional,face-to-face study program at Thomas Jefferson University.
Leanne says physically being in a classroom helps build a strong connection between students and their professors.In some ways she liked taking control and leading her own studies.But many times,she also felt lost without that special connection.
In addition,it may not be just a student's learning that suffers in a distance learning program.
There is some concern about what future employers think about an online degree,too.
Some employment specialists from Public Agenda,a nonprofit research organization,believe that students in online programs learn less than those in traditional programs and online programs are easier to complete.
Some employers may have limited understanding of what is possible through an online program.
However,until there are widely accepted standards for online programs as there are for traditional ones,crkical opinions will likely remain.
Also,there appears to bc a barrier for online programs becoming more widely accepted.If more well-known,high quality schools start offering such programs,employers will likely consider the two methods as equal.But the high cost to create high quality online programs suggests this will not be easy.
Today,more students are choosing online college programs over traditional programs every year.
But there is still a long way to go before online and traditional programs operate on the same level.

24.What's the passage mainly about?C
A.Leanne's experience to learn online.
B.The popularity of online degree programs.
C.The limitations of distance learning programs.
D.The standards for online education.
25.Why did Leanne choose to study at Thomas Jefferson University?B
A.Because she didn't want to move away from home.
B.Because she preferred the classroom atmosphere.
C.Because she could decide when and what to learn.
D.Because she didn't have time to attend online courses.
26.Which statement about online degree programs may employers agree with?A
A.Generally accepted criteria should be made.
B.They are highly recommended for students.
C.They are difficult to complete.
D.The prices of them should be raised.
27.What's the writer's attitude towards online degree programs?A
A.Objective.B.Critical.C.Favorable.D.Indifferent.
4.One of India's great economic advantages is the relative youth of its population.By 2020 it will become the world's youngest country,with 64% of its people at working age.To make the most of this advantage,India's children need to be educated.
On paper,India is doing well.The country has a nationwide network of state primary schools funded by an earmarked(指定的) tax.Some 96% of children aged 6-14go to school,even in rural areas.That's well above the average for the developing world and their attendance is good.But attainment is poor;  three-quarters of third-graders can't read a grade-one text and 53% of grade-five kids can't read at the standard they should have achieved at grade two.Levels of achievement are almost as bad in maths.
"The main problem in India is not enrollment(入学人数) or whether there is a local school;it's the delivery of education---the way teaching is done or not done,"says Vinati Sukhdev,executive director of Pratham,a charity that campaigns for better education in India.According to Ms Sukhdev,the country's teachers are the third-best-paid in the world but they're poorly trained and are often absent---it's not uncommon for them to hold a second job outside school.Teacher attendance at primary level is only 85%,according to Pratham research and there is little punishment for those who don't turn up.
Because more than 30% of India's state primary schools are tiny establishments with just 60or even fewer pupils---rising to 60%in the far north and north east---the absence of a teacher is likely to mean that there is no learning that day.
The government knows that state schooling needs improving.In 2009,it passed the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act or the Right to Education (RTE) Act,a law for the national provision of free,child-friendly education.It says that there should be two teachers for every 60 students and that they should go to work regularly,get there on time,follow the curriculum,assess how well the children are learning and meet regularly with parents.
There has been some progress,though from a low base.According to Ms Sukhdev,45% of schools agree with the pupil/teacher ratios(比率),up from 39% in 2010,when the law took effect.Infrastructure is improving too.Two-thirds of state primaries now have a working toilet.
"What we need to do next is improve accountability(责任),"says Ms Sukhdev.Schools have management committees that are supposed to include parent and local government representatives."But they don't work or people don't know they exist."Pratham tries to help local communities and parents drive improvement."You should see the kind of reaction we get when they realize the teacher is paid but isn't turning up!"says Ms Sukhdev."We can't be everywhere,so we limit ourselves to working in a few districts,where we can create model schools.Then we try to work together with local governments to make sure every school in the district or state is raised to that level."the Read India program was launched by Pratham in 2007and now it has created an easy-to-use teaching and assessment pack called Learning to read.It has trained teachers in how to use the pack in school and shown community health workers,volunteers and parents how it could support learning outside school.The program has now run across 19 states,involving 450,000 volunteers and training 600,000 teachers and government workers.Among the 33m children who have participated,the number of those who can read simple sentences has risen by 20%.
For Ms Sukhdev,the success of Read India underlines the need to find ideas that can be replicated(复制).According to the UNESCO money and attendance level are important---but it's the quality of education delivered that really matters.

11.Students from Florida International University in Miami walked on water Thursday for a class assignment.To do it,they wore aquatic(水上的) shoes they designed and created.

12.The news that China bans time-travel TV dramas and movies got a lot of attention on the Internet.Yet,time travel in China is a bit different from time travel in common sense.It is anything but science fiction and always goes backwards in time.There is minimum imagination involved--no ever-ending circles that mess up present and future,no advanced technology,no new social orders or new human forms from the twenty--whatever century,everything is a known historical fact when you travel through in China.
It is not even called time travel; rather the Chinese people refer to it as time crossover.Time crossover has been an extremely popular theme for online novels for years (in fact,it is an indispensable part of China's online culture),and didn't get picked up by TV and the big screen until recent two years.Most of time-travel dramas and movies are adapted from popular online novels and like in other cases adaptations are never better than the original books.
The main plot of time-travel novels or TV dramas can be very well summarized in one sentence:from nobody to somebody.Time travel in China is more about escaping from the reality than about realizing wild dreams.
In China,there is no need of time machine either.People travel backwards in time via the possession of antiques presence at historical places of interest encounter of life-threatening accidents or simple a look into the mirror.Some time-travel novels even start with''I wanted togo back to history so much that one morning when I opened my eyes I was back.''Technology is not relevant at all.
Though China is not short of histories to go back to,people have their own preferences and it is pretty much a gender thing.If the main character is male then he usually goes back to special times in history when he is able to help build up or tear up a dynasty.A typical example is A Step Into the Past (寻秦记),the first time-travel TV drama in China,which tells the story of how a SWAT member helps to unite China and build up Qin Dynasty.
On the other hand,female characters primarily go back to Qing Dynasty partly because Qing Dynasty has the most number of princes to fall in love with.YongZheng Emperor is the favorite.As can be seen in Startling by Each Step (步步惊心),a Qing time crossover classic,a girl goes back to Qing Dynasty and falls in love with YongZheng Emperor and his brothers.

29.The writing purpose of this passage is toB.
A.Analyze why the time-travel TV dramas are banned in China
B.Show the difference between time travel in China and in other cultures
C.Introduce the characteristics of the time-travel TV dramas in China
D.Advise people to watch the time-travel TV dramas in China
30.It can be inferred from the passage thatB.
A.China now has banned any forms of productions about time travel
B.The main character always follows a set pattern in the time-travel TV dramas in China
C.Adapted from online novels,time-travel TV and movie productions enjoy more praise
D.All the time-travel productions are about heroes and their success
31.The news mentioned in the very beginning is intended toD.
A.prove author's view              B.give an example
C.work as a topic sentence         D.introduce the topic.
