5.Some students are more _________ to forget almost everything they learned.(  )
A.probableB.sureC.likelyD.possible

分析 一些学生更有可能忘记他们所学的几乎所有东西.

解答 答案是C.本题考查同义形容词词义辨析.首先,sure通常不用比较级和最高级,所有排除B;possible、probable和likely都表示"可能的";用法上有区别:possible 和probable在句中做表语时必须用it 做形式主语,构成"It is possible/probablethat…可能…",本题主语是somestudents,所有排除A和D;likely 在句中做表语时主语可以是人或物,构成"sb./sth.be likely to do某人或某物可能…",也可以用it 做形式主语,构成"It islikely that…可能…",可见,本题选用sb.be likely to do,因此答案是C.

点评 形容词辨析的关键在于积累词汇和一些相关的固定搭配,在此基础上结合语境,做出合理的判断.

13.When I was in primary school,I got into an argument with a boy in my class.I have forgotten what the argument was about,but I have never forgotten the lesson learned that day.
I was convincedthat"I"was right and"he"was wrong---and he was just as convinced that I was wrong and"he"was right.The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson.She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other.    
In the middle of her desk was a large,round object.I could clearly see that it was black She asked the boy what color the object was."White,"he answered.
I couldn't believe he said the object was white,for it was obviously black!Another argument started between my classmate anytime,this time about the color of the object.
The teacher told me to go to stand where the boy had been standing and told him to come to stand where I had been.We changed places,and now she asked me what the color of the object was.I had to answer,"White."It was an object with two differently-colored sides,and from his viewpoint it was white.Only from my side was it black
My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day:You must stand in the other persons'shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their perspective(现点).

56.What is the main idea of the text?(No more than 10 words)See things from others'viewpoints.
57.What is the meaning of the underlined words"was convinced"in Paragraph 2?(No more than 3 words)Believed.
 58.What did the teacher ask the students while changing positions?(No more than 8 words)The color of the object.The color of the object.
59.Why are both of their answers right?(No more than 10 words)Because the object had two differently-colored sides.
60.What do you think of the teacher?And why?(No more than 20 words)The teacher is wise because she taught them the lesson in a very good way..
20.If you were to come up with a list of organizations whose failures had done the most damage to the American economy (经济) in recent years,you would probably have to start with the Wall Street firms that brought us the financial crisis (金融危机).From there,you might move on to the automakers in Detroit.
But I would suggest that the list should also include a less obvious nominee (被提名者):public education.
At its top level,the American system of higher education may be the best in the world.Yet in terms of its main task-turning teenagers into educated college graduates-much of the system is failing.
The United States does a good job enrolling (招生) teenagers in college,but only half of the students who enroll end up with a bachelor's degree.
So finding out the causes of the college dropout crisis in the world's largest economy matters greatly,and a new book called"Crossing the Finish Line"tries to do precisely that.Its authors are economists William Bowen and Michael McPherson,and a doctoral candidate Matthew Chingos.The first problem they discover is something they call under-matching.It refers to students who choose not to attend the best college they can get into.They instead go to a less selective one,perhaps one that is closer to home or less expensive.About half of the low-income students with a grade-point average of at least 3.5in high school and an SAT score of at least 1,200do not attend the best college they could have."I was really astonished by the degree to which well-qualified students from poor families under-matched,"said Mr.Bowen.
In fact,well-off students attend the colleges that do the best job of producing graduates.Meanwhile,lower-income students-even when they are better qualified-often go to colleges that excel (擅长) in producing drop-outs."It's really a waste,"Mr.Bowen said,"and a big problem for the country."As the authors point out,the only way to lift the college graduation rate greatly is to lift it among poor and working-class students.Instead,it appears to have fallen.
What can be done?Money is clearly part of the answer.

49.According to this text,which of the following would people first think of as a factor causing damage to the American economy?D
A.The government.           B.Public education.
C.The Detroit automakers.   D.The Wall Street firms.
50.What is a big problem with American higher education?C
A.Many college students stay away from classes.
B.It is hard to enroll enough students into college.
C.Many colleges are experiencing low rate of graduation.
D.It is hard for many colleges to get financial aid from the government.
51.Why do some students under-match?B
A.Because they are not sure about future.
B.Because they have financial problem.
C.Because they can't get guidance.
D.Because they lack confidence.
52.The text is mainly aboutC.
A.America's financial crisis,its cause and influence
B.relationship between American education and its economy
C.low rate of American college graduation,its cause and its influence
D.problems with American secondary education and possible solutions.
