                                            eBooks still some way away from students
     Twelve-year-old Tang Yin is one of the earliest students to test a digital textbook in China. The boy said he
was a little   1   when he received the monochromatic (单色的) flat device in April, 2010, because he thought
it should be a "  2   cool" laptop. But Tang still cherishes (珍爱) his new equipment like "protecting my   3 ,"
said the fifth grader. After all, not every student has the opportunity to   4   the eBook, which is worth 2,000
yuan, he said.
     The 50 eBooks,   5   by Taiwan eBook manufacturer Chuanqi Photoelectric Technology in Yangzhou, Jiangsu
Province, enable one class at Yangzhou Sanyuanqiao Elementary School to be the   6   group of students in the
Chinese mainland to replace their regular textbooks with electronic ones. Out of l,000 students, Tang' s class
was the lucky   7  .
     "Our school could not   8   the project without the company' s donation," said Yuan Shishan, vice-headmaster
of the primary school   9   the digital book is considered environmentally friendly, because it replaces paper
books and saves money in the long run, the price is much higher than most Chinese  10  can afford. Also, some
technical defects, the  11  of taking notes and monochromatic display, make the eBook fail to meet the
expectations of students and teachers.
     "There's still a(n)  12  way to go before the eBook really plays an important role in education," said the
headmaster.
     According to Yuan, the annual average income of a  13  family in Yangzhou is about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan,
and neither the parents nor the school can afford the 2,000 yuan  14  book.
     The school doesn't allow the students to take their eBooks to their homes. The devices are  15  after class,
and are locked in the headmaster's office.

     In a society such as the United States or Canada, which has many national, religious, and cultural differences,
people highly value individualism (个人主义)-the differences among people. Teachers place a lot of importance
on the qualities that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values.
Students do not memorize information. Instead, they work individually and find answers themselves. There is
often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their own ideas and opinions.
     In most Asian societies, on the contrary, people have the same language, history, and culture. Perhaps for
this reason, the educational system in much of the Orient (东方的) reflects society' s belief in group goals and
purposes rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan, and Korea often work together and help one
another on assignments. In the classroom, the teaching methods are often very formal. The teacher lectures,
and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students repeat rules or information that they
have memorized.
     There are advantages and disadvantages to both of these systems of education. For example, one advantage
to the system in Japan is that students there learn much more math and science than American students learn
by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North
Americans do. The system is difficult, but it prepares students for a society that values discipline and self-
control. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools,
yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information they have memorized.
     The advantage of the educational system in North America, on the other hand, is that students learn to think
for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values creative ideas. There is, however, a
disadvantage. When students graduate from high school, they haven't memorized as many basic rules and facts
as students in other countries have.

1. The reason why American teachers attach much importance to individualism is that _____.

[ ]

A. they are required to do so
B. their students do not memorize information
C. the United States is a country of many cultures
D. their students work individually

2. Which of the following statements applies to Asian methods of education?

[ ]

A. Each child in a classroom draws a different picture.
B. students have to find information themselves.
C. Students are prepared for a society that values discipline.
D. Teachers serve as a guide in discussion.

3. A good educational system would be the one that _____.

[ ]

A. has more advantages
B. is the combination of Western and Oriental methods
C. is based on the Western system
D. rests on the Asian system

4. The author believes that _____.

[ ]

A. different educational systems reflect different culture of the societies
B. students from Western countries are creative but selfish
C. Asian students are merely interested in math and science
D. there are more advantages to Western system of education than to Oriental one

5. The author focuses on _____.

[ ]

A. the differences in methods of education orient and west
B. the advantages and disadvantages to both of the Western and Asian educational system
C. how Asian school systems reflect group goals
D. how Western school systems reflect the value of individualism

     A volcanic eruption in Iceland has sent ash across northern Europe. Airlines have stopped or
changed the flights across the Atlantic Ocean, leaving hundreds of passengers stuck in airports.
     Grimsvom is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe. What makes Grimsvom
different is that it lies under a huge glacier(冰川) of ice up to 12 meters thick. The hot volcano
heats up the ice above it, which then forms a layer(层)of water between the glacier and the volcano.
This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano, keeping it stable. As the water flows out from under
the glacier, the pressure lifts. The lava(岩浆) from the volcano then comes up to the surface. This is
exactly what happened today.
     Now, airlines have to make changes to their flights so as not to fly through the clouds of volcanic
ash. According to KLM,one of Europe's biggest airlines, airplanes cannot go under the cloud or over
it. Going through the cloud can result in ash getting stuck in the airplane's engines, causing damage to
the plane.
     The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland. The volcano left ash and sharp
glasslike rocks all over the countryside. Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from
eating ashcovered grass or the sharp object.

1．What makes Grimsvom different from other volcanoes?

A．It is below ice.
B．It lies under the sea.
C．It is the largest volcano.
D．Its lava affects the airlines.

2．What keeps Grimsvom still?

A．The slow flow of water.
B．The low water temperature.
C．The thick glacier.
D．The water pressure.

3．Which of the following is the result of the volcanic eruption?

A．People stop traveling in Europe.
B．Airlines suffer from the loss of planes.
C．It becomes dangerous for animals to eat outside.
D．Farmers have lost many of their animals.

4．This text is most probably taken from________.

A．a research paper
B．a newspaper report
C．a class presentation
D．a geography textbook

     A common misconception (误解) -about scholarships is that they are only available for the smartest
students with the highest GPAs. However, this just isn't even close to true. There are scholarships out
there for every type of student seeking a college education. Let's take a look at each type a bit more in
depth.
     Academic Scholarships
     Academic scholarships are also often referred to as merit (优点) scholarships, though a merit
scholarship can mean anything that has some level of contest to it. These are fox; the students with the
4.0 GPAs, the years as a part of several extracurricular (课外的) activities and the well- rounded
applications. They typically have the highest payouts and are considered very well- known as they are
often national awards.
     Athletic Scholarships
     For students with strong academics (学业的) and physical skills, athletic scholarships are the way
to go. There is practically a scholarship for every single sport, from volleyball to football; gymnastics to
cheerleading. So, if you are good at anything physical, you should definitely pursue an athletic scholarship.
     Scholarships for Minorities
     There are also many scholarships for minorities available. Some of these are general and for "all
minorities as a collective whole, while others are intended for individual ethnic (种族的) groups. It is
also a good idea to apply for a minority scholarship if you are part of fully of a certain ethnicity. You
will get to represent your culture and possibly win money -- what more could you ask for?
     Scholarships for Women
     As with the scholarships for minorities above, there are also scholarships specifically for women.
Since colleges were dominated (主宰) by men for many years, scholarships have been created for
strong, career-minded women that need assistance paying for college expenses. If you are female, it is
strongly recommended you pursue a scholarship for women. Moreover, scholarships for women are
typic
ally available in just about any field. Be specific!

     Sometime early in the next century, human beings will move to Mars. They will live
there for about a year, and then will be replaced with another group of pioneers. Building
the base on Mars will advance our knowledge of the solar system and aid in our
understanding of the earth.
      We already know that Mars resembles the earth in many aspects : general size,
presence of water, lengthof day, range of temperatures. These resemblances have
caused many people to consider a centuries-long project: to transform Mars.
Transforming means alterinB a planet's surface so that the Earth's life forms can
survive there. This concept, previously found only in science fiction is now being
seriously considered by scientists.
     Transforming Mars is theoretically simple : add nitrogen (氮气)and oxygen to the
atmosphere; pump water to the surface; and add the earth's plants and animals in the
order in which they developed on the Earth. But it will take at least 300 years.
     Some people think that such a project is too huge for humans to undertake, but
there are very good reasons to make the attempt. The earth now contains some 6
billion people and no one has any idea of how many humans the earth can support.
Our very existence and numbers are threatening many other species. We also have
had some experience with transforming our own planet : altering thelandscape ,
theatmosphereand the climate. Currently transforming earth has become a wiser activity
as we try to control global warming, air and water pollution, and' preserve some natural
living places.
      While the possibility of such a project is small, it is not impossible. Even if earthbound
societies come and go in the next 300 years, the project can continue through the work
of the Mars settlers without the need for constant backing from the earth.
The future existence of all the people in our world may very well depend upon our ability
to transform Mars.

1. What does the underlined word " altering"mean in the second paragraph?_______

A. Warming.
B. Changing.
C. Planting.
D. Building.

2. According to the passage the main purpose of transforming Mars is to._______

A. do some scientific research work
B. find out its similarity to the Earth
C. avoid the dying way of many other species
D. find on Mars living place for the increasing human beings

3. The main reason for causing many people to consider transforming Mars is that._______

A. there are some resemblances between the Earth and Mars
B. transforming Mars is theoretically simple
C. our existence and numbers are threatening many other species
D. the development of science and technology is very rapid

4. What's the author's attitude towards the project?______

A. Optimistic.
B. Negative.
C. Sceptical(怀疑的 ) .
D. Objective.

     Edmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the
observations of comets(彗星) which other scientists had made. The orbit of one
particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not figure it out.
Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.
However, Halley had a friend named Isaac Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician.
Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the
paper on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape
of an ellipse(椭圆形).
     Now Halley set to work. He figured out(觯决,计算出) the orbits of some of the
comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The
comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607 and 1682 all had the same orbit.
Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.
     This seemed very strange to Halley. Three different comets followed the same orbit.
The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three
different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same
comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.
     It was an astonislung idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction(顶言 )
of what would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the
year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halley's prediction could be tested.
     In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some
years before. Ever since then that comet had been called Halley's comet, in his honour.
