【题目】Many people think teachers give pupils too much homework. They say that it is unnecessary for children to work at home in their free time. Moreover, they argue that most teachers do not 【1】(proper) plan the homework tasks they give to pupils. The result is that pupils have to repeat tasks which they 【2】 (do) at school already.

In Greece, many parents complained about the difficult homework that teachers gave to their children. The parents said that most of the homework was 【3】 waste of time, and they wanted to stop it. Spain and Turkey are two countries 【4】 stopped homework recently. In Denmark, Germany and several other 【5】 (country) in Europe, teachers cannot set homework at weekends. In Holland, teachers allow pupils 【6】 (stay) at school to do their homework. The children are free to help one another. Similar 【7】 (arrange) also exists in some British schools.

Most people agree that homework is not fair. A pupil who can do his homework in a quiet and comfortable room is in a much 【8】(good) position than a pupil who does his homework in a small, 【9】 (noise) room with the television on. Some parents are ready to help their children with their homework. But other parents even take no interest 【10】 their children’s homework at all.

【答案】

【1】properly

【2】have done

【3】a

【4】which /that

【5】countries

【6】to stay

【7】arrangement

【8】better

【9】noisy

【10】in

【解析】试题分析：如何减轻学生的作业负担可真是个麻烦事。人家外国人也碰上了这个问题。看看外国人又是怎么处理的？

【1】此处plan 是动词，副词修饰动词，proper是形容词，所以要用它的副词形式properly。句意：多数的老师没有合适地安排作业任务。

【2】根据句意结果是学生们不得不重复他们在学校已经做过的任务。用现在完成时态，故填have done。

【3】习惯用语a waste of time 浪费时间。故填a 。句意：父母说多数的作业是浪费时间。

【4】这是一个定语从句的考查，two countries 作先行词，后面是定语从句，从句没有引导词，却主语，故填which /that。句意：西班牙和土耳其是两个停止作业的国家。

【5】several other 后面跟名词的复数形式，所以此处用country 的复数形式countries。几个其他的国家。

【6】固定搭配allow sb. to do sth.允许某人做某事，故填to stay。

【7】“相似的安排”，形容词修饰名词，arrange是动词，所以用它的形容词形式arrangement。

【8】根据后面的than可知此处用比较级，故填good的比较级better。

【9】“吵闹的房间”，形容词修饰名词，noise 的形容词是noisy，所以填noisy。

【10】固定搭配take no interest in对---不感兴趣，故此处填in。

【题目】A lot of students around the world have to wear uniforms every day, but dress codes are not the same in every country.【1】

Not all children like to wear uniforms in their everyday life. When I was a school girl, I had to wear a uniform. It was a dark brown dress with a black apron. I couldn’t wear anything else. All the girls in my country had to wear this uniform.【2】

I remember how I hated to put on my uniform every morning. I couldn’t even use colorful hairpins because colorful things were prohibited. All the pupils looked the same, and nobody liked that uniform.

My friends and I talked about it very often. 【3】 All we wanted was to feel comfortable and to be different from other children.

Nowadays, the dress code in my country has changed. There are no more uniforms. 【4】 For example, my younger brother, who is a high school student, now likes to wear jeans because they are comfortable, and he doesn’t want to change back to a uniform.

However, the government now wants to make a new dress for schools and require uniforms again. Fortunately, the new uniform is supposed to be less formal than the old one.

【5】 If children prefer to wear colorful clothes, adults should permit them to do so. Kids have to enjoy going to school. That is why everything has to be done to make pupils feel comfortable at school.

A. For boys, it was a dark blue suit.

B. Wearing a uniform has a special meaning for students.

C. They depend on the culture and traditions of each country.

D. Caring too much about how they dress shouldn’t be a big concern for students.

E. We imagined how we would dress if there were no uniforms.

F. Children can dress whatever they like.

G. In my opinion, it is good idea to have a freestyle dress code.

【题目】The idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid---we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.

However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we，d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. ’’

But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a “non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick Liquid of cornflour.

Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink--and take a shower afterward!

【1】Walking on water hasn’t become a reality mainly because humans______.

A. are not interested in it

B. have biological limitations

C. have not invented proper tools

D. are afraid to make an attempt

【2】What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?

A. It is light enough to walk on water.

B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.

C. It can run across water at a certain speed.

D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.

【3】What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?

A. To create a thick liquid.

B. To turn the water into solid.

C. To help the liquid behave normally.

D. To enable the water to move rapidly.

【4】What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ walking on water?

A. It is risky but beneficial.

B. It is interesting and worth trying.

C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.

D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.

【题目】What is a fair wage? 【1】 These are some of the questions the United Nations International Labour Organisation(ILO) has recently investigated.

With a global population of over seven billion, is it actually possible to measure an average amount?_ 【2】_ Using the total wage bill from over seventy countries, they have multiplied the amounts by the number of earners in each country. The economists then tallied up the results and divided them by the total number across the world The result was a world average wage equivalent to $1,490 a month. _【3】_

This figure might seem very high because they calculated the amount using purchasing power parity dollars, which takes into account the fact that it is cheaper to live in some countries than others. _【4】_

Calculating an average sum like this might not be a completely fair representation, but these figures do help us to understand how the world is developing, both economically, in the quality of life people are experiencing and their standard of living.

But the result shows that the average wage is still relatively low and there remains a huge difference in levels of affluence around the world. _【5】_ Is this fair? For many, pay equality still seems very far out of reach.

A. The ILO has now tried to work out the sums.

B. The ILO used statistics from over 70 different countries

C. Why aren't more people in the world offered pay equality?

D. That is approximately $75 a day for a 20-day working month.

E. Some people live on just two dollars a day, while others are earning more than a million dollars a year.

F. When someone works for themselves, what are they called?

G. The data also did not include the huge number of people who appear in poverty statistics or who are self-employed.

【题目】“Clothes-swapping” has become an increasing popular activity for women in the United States. The women can give away unwanted clothing at a clothes swap event and get something different in return.

Recently about 300 women went to a clothes swap at a high school in Springfield, Virginia. It was the largest crowd ever for the area’s popular clothing-swap group.

Daphne Steinberg was having a very good day. “For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT，Ann Taylor is a really nice women’s designer and I’ll totally wear this to work. So I love that, I love that I can equip myself for work, have a good time in doing it, not totally bankrupt myself. ”

Kim Pratt organized the clothing-swapping event in Springfield. She also organized a money-raising activity for the high school’s debate team. It’s one of several ways that her group gives to charitable causes. Another is by donating all of the “un-swapped” clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence.

“I started doing this myself four years ago, and we’ve been doing it for four years, getting bigger and bigger each time we have a swap.”

She used the social media website meetup. com to help publicize the events. The website has helped her group grow from 30 members to 1,300. Ms Pratt says most of the members respect clothing swap rules. But she says competition for desirable fashion can be strong.

“We have to tell people sometimes not to hover (徘徊) over the new people coming in with their clothing. As they put it out，some people tend to grab (抢夺) the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a free-for-all. We try to avoid that as much as possible.”

【1】We can learn from what Daphne Steinberg said that .

A. she saved much more money than she had expected

B. it was the first time she had been to a clothes swap

C. the clothes swap was the largest ever in the area

D. she got some nice clothes at the clothes swap

【2】What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about?

A. What Kim Pratt did to help others in need

B. What Kim Pratt did with the un-swapped clothing.

C. How Kim Pratt helped a high school’s debate team.

D. How Kim Pratt started the clothing-swapping event.

【3】The underlined word “publicize” in Paragraph 6 probably means “ ”.

A. observe B. manage

C. advertise D. prove

【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. Clothes-swapping is becoming increasingly popular with women.

B. Improper behavior at clothes swaps needs to be controlled.

C. More clothing swapping events need to be organized

D. Clothes swaps often go out of control in the end.

【题目】When we can see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.

People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing（缝纫）, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.

People who are farsighted（远视的）suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses too.

Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts（白内障）. Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.

When night falls, colors become fainter to the eye and finally disappear. After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the sides of your eyes rather than the centers. Sometimes, after dark, you see a small thing to one side of you, which seems to disappear if you turn you head in its direction. This is because when you turn your head, you are looking at the thing too directly. Men on guard duty sometimes think they see something moving to one side of them. When they turn to look straight at it, they cannot see it any more, and they believe they were mistaken. However, this mistake happens because the center of the eye, which is very sensitive(敏感的) in daylight, is not as sensitive as the sides of the eyes after dark.

【1】We don’t know that our eyes are of great importance until _____.

A. we think about our eyes B. we cannot see clearly

C. we wear glasses D. we have to do much reading

【2】According to the passage, a _____ is more likely to be nearsighted.

A. tailor B. doctor

C. guard D. painter

【3】Those who suffer from cataracts _____.

A. will become blind B. cannot be cured（治愈）

C. may be cured D. must move to other places

【4】People who are farsighted _____.

A. cannot do a lot of close work without glasses

B. can only see things that are very close to their eyes

C. have difficulty reading a book if they hold it at arm’s length

D. have the same problem as the nearsighted people

【5】To see a small thing at night, it is better to look ______.

A. with wide open eyes

B. with half- shut or narrowed eyes

C. straight at it

D. in a slightly different direction

【题目】After the dinner party, most guests left, with only two of them _______ in the host family, _______ them clear up.
