19.Unfortunately,although Van Gogh  committedhis whole being to painting,he received  little reward for his effort.

分析 遗憾的是,尽管梵•高全身心地投入绘画,他所得到的回报却微乎其微.

解答 答案是committed.考查词组 commit sb./oneself to sth./doing sth./sb.承诺(做)某事;致力于(做)某事.由主句received可知句子是一般过去时态,所以commit用过去式committed.故答案是committed.

点评 本题考查单词填空.首先要根据语境明确句意,然后再根据相关语法决定正确答案.

9.I travel a lot,and I find out different"styles"of directions every time I ask"How can I get to the post office?"
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don't have names; in Japan,people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.For example,the Japanese will say to travelers,"Go straight down to the corner.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.The post office is across from the bus stop."
In the countryside of the American Midwest,there are not usually many landmarks.There are no mountains,so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles.Instead of landmarks,people will tell you directions and distances.In Kansas or Iowa,for example,people will say,"Go north two miles.Turn east,and then go another mile."
People in Los Angeles,California,have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time,not miles."How far away is the post office?"you ask."Oh,"they answer,"it's about five minutes from here."You say,"Yes,but how many miles away is it?"They don't know.
It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes.What happens in such a situation?A New Yorker might say,‘Sorry,I have no idea."But in Yucatan,Mexico,no one answers"I don't know."People in Yucatan believe that"I don't know"is impolite.They usually give an answer,often a wrong one.A tourist can get very,very lost in Yucatan!

14.The kids in a village in Ethiopia wear dirty,ragged clothes.They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud.They have no school.Yet they all can chant the English alphabet,and some can make words.
The key to their success:20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S.group called One Laptop Per Child.
The goal is to find out whether kids using today's new technology can teach themselves to read in places where there are no schools or teachers.The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they're already amazed."What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,"said Matt Keller,who runs the Ethiopia program.
The fastest learner-and the first to turn on one of the tablets-is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse.The device's camera was disabled to save memory,yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work.He called himself a lion,a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.
With his tablet,Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows.Then he spelled words on his own."Seven months ago he didn't know any English.That's unbelievable,"said Keller.
The project aims to get kids to a stage called"deep reading,"where they can read to learn.It won't be in Amharic,Ethiopia's first language,but in English,which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.
19.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?B
A.It trains teachers for them.
B.It helps their self-study.
C.It raises their living standards.
D.It provides funds for building schools.
20.What can we infer from Keller's words in Paragraph 3?C
A.They need more time to analyze data.
B.More children are needed for the research.
C.He is confident about the future of the project.
D.The research should be carried out in kindergartens.
21.What is the aim of the project?D
A.To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.
B.To make Amharic widely used in the world.
C.To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.
D.To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.
11.请How Learning Habits Influence On Learning Results.
It's useful and necessary to discuss learning habits.There is a famous saying"Good habits lead to good endings.",(56)whichshows the importance of habits.
"An apple a day keeps doctor away."also shows how a healthy everyday habit helps to build 
up our body.(57)Thus,good learning habits can help us gain great learning results(58)including(include) high scores and abundant knowledge.At first,learning habits form our ways of thinking and attitudes(59)tothe content of our learning.Obviously,a good habit can help us to speed up to reach our destinations.(60)Aswe can see,cultivating a good habit is so important(61)thatI would like to introduce one kind of good learning habits--keep a learning diary every day.We can start the habit by(62)writing(write) learning summary and remember to record something impressive and(63)meaningful(mean).Keep it in mind,and gradually we can gain this good learning habit and benefit from it.What's more,I find out that I still have some bad learning habits as well.I can 
(64)only concentrate on reading for a short time and I (65)will conquer( conquer) this problem by spending more effort on concentration practice.
I believe that through my efforts,I can gain good learning results by having good habits.
