18．The English test will be removed from China's college entrance exam by 2020，according to details of exam and admission reform revealed by the Ministry of Education．The national college entrance exam，known as the"Gaokao"has been used to evaluate Chinese students for three decades．The Ministry of Education has worked out a plan for reforming exams and enrollment．The Ministry will solicit（征求） public opinions before its release．Instead，tests will be held several times a year to allow students to choose when and how often they sit the exam so as to alleviate（减轻） study pressure and change China's once-in-a-lifetime exam system．
The plan and suggestions for its implementation（实施） will be announced in the first half of next year．It will be piloted in selected provinces and cities and promoted nationwide from 2017．A new exam and admission system will be established by 2020，according to the education ministry．
The decision has aroused a heated discussion among Shanghai educators and parents who doubted the reform would reduce the burden of learning English or if the substitute test could reflect a student's English skills and help students learn English better．
"The reform shows China is learning from the West to give students more test-taking chances．But more chances might become more of a burden since Chinese students are likely to repeat the test until they get the highest score，"said Cai Jigang，a professor at Fudan University's College of Foreign Languages and Literature and chairman of the Shanghai Advisory Committee for College English Teaching at Tertiary Level．
Yu Lizhong，chancellor of New York University Shanghai，where classes are in English and students are required to have a high standard of English，said the most important aspect of the reform lay in what to test and how to test．
"As far as I see，the reform doesn't mean English is no longer important for Chinese students after it will be excluded（排除） from the unified（统一标准的） college entrance exam，"Yu said．"In a way，English is even more important than before since the test would only serve as reference，while every college and university，even every major，can have different requirements of a student's English skills under a diverse evaluation system．''
Yu said some students will have their study pressure reduced if the major they choose doesn't need excellent English while others still need to study hard if they want to be among the best students．
The education ministry said the reform would not affect students attending the college entrance exam over the next three years．

15．Time is more precious than money for an increasing number of people who are choosing to live more with less-and liking it．
Kay and Charles Giddens，two lawyers，sold their home to start a B&B hotel．Four years later，the couple dishes out banana pancake breakfast，cleans toilets and serves homemade chocolate chip cookies to guests in a B&B hotel surrounded by trees on a hill known for colourful sunsets．
"Do I miss the freeways？Do I miss the traffic？Do I miss the stress？No，"says Ms．Giddens，"This is a phenomenon that's fairly widespread．A lot of people are revaluating their lives and figuring out what they want to do．If their base is being damaged，what's the payoff？"
Simple living ranges from cutting down on weeknight activities to sharing housing，living closer to work，avoiding shopping malls，borrowing books from the library instead of buying them，and taking a cut in pay to work at a more pleasurable job．
Vicki Robin，a writer，lives on a budget equal to a fifth of what she used to make．"You become conscious about where your money is going and how valuable it is，"Ms．Robin says，"You tend not to use things up．You cook at home rather than eat out…"
Janet Luhrs，a lawyer，quit her job after giving birth and leaving her daughter with a nanny for two weeks．"It was not the way I wanted to raise my kids，"she says，"Simplicity is not just about saving money； it's about me sitting down every night with my kids to a candlelit dinner with classical music．"
Mrs．Luhrs now edits a magazine，Simple Living，which publishes tips on how to buy recycled furniture and shoes，organize potluck dinners instead of expensive receptions，and generally how to consume less．
Mrs．Luhrs explains，"It's not about poverty．It's about conscious living and creating the life you want．The less stuff you buy，the less money goes out of the door，and the less money you have to earn．"

2．James Long is holding a debate called The economy or the environment-must we choose？Lin Shuiqing，a spokeswoman from the Green Society and Qian Liwei，（56）a business development consultant presented their own opinions．
Ms Lin holds the opinion （57）that vast areas of the world are damaged by chemical waste．For example，large amounts of （58）harmful （harm） chemicals produced by factories flow into our water，（59）killing （kill） river and sea life．Besides，much sea life is being destroyed by fishing boats．So he advises people to cut back on production and meanwhile teaches people about （60）environmentally（environment） friendly ways of living．

12．Alex Pang's amusing new book The Distraction Addiction addresses those of us who feel panic without a cellphone or computer．And that，he claims，is pretty much all of us．When we're not online，where we spend four months annually，we're engaged in the stressful work of trying to get online．
The Distraction Addiction is not framed as a self-help book．It's a thoughtful examination of of how technological advances change consciousness．A"professional futurist"，Pang urges an approach which he calls"contemplative （沉思的） computing．"He asks that you pay full attention to"how your mind and body interact with computers and how your attention and creativity are influenced by technology．"
Pang's first job is to free you from the common misconception that doing two things at once allows you to get more done．What is commonly called multitasking is，in fact，switch-tasking，and its harmful effects on productivity are well documented．Pang doesn't advocate returning to a pre-Internet world．Instead，he asks you to"take a more ecological view of your relationships with technologies．Modern devices or media may be making specific tasks easier or faster but at the same time making your work and life harder．"
The Distraction Addiction is particularly fascinating on how technologies have changed certain fields of labor-often for the worse．For architects，computer-aided design has become essential but in some ways has cheapened the design process．As one architect puts it，"Architecture is first and foremost about thinking…and drawing is a more productive way of thinking"than computer-aided design．Somewhat less amusing are Pang's solutions for kicking the Internet habit．He recommends the usual behavior-controlling approaches，familiar to anyone who has completed a quit-smoking program．Keep logs to study your online profile and decide what you can knock out，download a program like Freedom that locks you out of your browser，or take a"digital Sabbath （安息日）"："Unless you're a reporter or emergency-department doctor，you'll discover that your world doesn't fall apart when you go offline．"

19．Poetry，one of the essential art forms of literature，is a brief and easy way to express our feelings．Moreover，everyone understands it in their own way．Some find relief in poems； some read them simply for peace； some read poems for simple artistic pleasure．
There are some special features of poetry，which make it quite different from other forms of literature．First of all，poems have rhythmic patterns．Generally most parts of a poem follow the same form of rhythm．Poems may have rhyme，but they don't have to．The lines are neatly arranged together so that they express a particular feeling or emotion．
There can be various types of poems but according to the pattern or the form，there are mainly three types：
Lyrics：The lyric mainly concentrates on human thoughts and emotions rather than a story．Lyrics always bear song-like appeal．These are mainly short poems．Popular lyric poem forms are the elegy，the ode and the sonnet．William Shakespeare，Edmund Waller and Keats are some of the greatest lyric writers of all times．
Narrative poems：This type of poetry tells a story．Narrative poems are usually long poems．Epics（史诗） and ballads fall under this type．Some of the greatest epic poets are John Milton，Dante，Edgar Allan Poe，Alexander Pope，William Shakespe are，etc．．
Dramatic poems：Any drama that is written in verse is a dramatic poem．These poems generally tell a story．Black verse，dramatic monologue（独白） and closet drama belong to this type．William Shakespeare，Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson are some of the greatest dramatic poets．
Whatever the form is，one thing，which cannot be denied，is that poetry is one of the most powerful tools to express our feelings．

45．What do we know about lyrics？D
①They are similar to songs．
②They usually tell stories．
③They are not very long．

A．poems are weak in showing feelings
B．some poets write more than one type of poem
C．narrative poems are shorter than lyric poems
D．the sonnet and the ballad belong to the same type

A survey basing on 1，000students found that half of the pupils and 80% of the middle school students sleeps less than nine hours every night．Too many homework given by school teachers and parents is the main reasons．Other reason lies in students'bad habits．Some students，for example，are absent-minded while doing his homework，and some waste their after-class time．The third reason is because some students have to get up early on weekdays to get school far away from home．Experts are calling at schools and parents to cut down on the amount of homework．And students should make a good use of their time．And it would be better if they could choose to study in a nearby school．
