Text 1
In 1997,25 Japanese citizens,all older than 60,launched Jeeba(the name means“old man and old woman”)to make senior-friendly products.They knew they were making history when they coined their company motto:“Of the elderly,by the elderly and for the elderly.”They do not hire young people,and the oldest of their workers is 75.
Firms run by senior citizens are still a rarity,in Japan and worldwide.But the elderly have numbers on their side.Healthier and longer-living seniors,born immediately after World WarⅡ,are reaching retirement age in huge numbers all over the developed world.Extremely low birthrates in those same countries mean there are far fewer young workers to take their place.One likely consequence is now clear:shrinking work forces.
While the streamlining effects of international competition are focusing attention on the need to create and keep good jobs,those fears will eventually give way to worries about the growing shortage of young workers.One unavoidable solution:putting older people back to work,whether they like it or not.Indeed,advanced economies like those of Finland and Denmark have already raised their retirement ages.Others are under severe pressure to follow suit,as both the European Commission and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development have recently warned their members that their future prosperity depends on a growing contribution from the elderly.
Whether these changes are good or bad news to workers depends on whether they anticipate retirement with eagerness or dread.In the United States,half of working-age Americans now expect to work into their 70s,whether by financial necessity or by lifestyle choice,according to a new study by Putnam Investments.
Contrary to still widespread assumptions,there is very little hard evidence to suggest that companies cannot stay competitive with a rising share of older workers.At British hardware chain B&Q,its“elder worker”stores in Manchester and Exmouth were 18 percent more profitable than its regular outlets-due in part,the company says,to six times less employee turnover and 60 percent less shoplifting and breakage.
26.Jeebas difference from a conventional company mainly lies in ________.
[A]the age of its employees B.the number of its owners
[C]the quality of its products[D]the scope of its operations
參考答案:A
參考解析:由“They do not hire young people,and the oldest of their workers is 75.”可以得出答案.

[C]filling vacant positions[D]replacing unskilled workers
參考答案:B
參考解析:由“those fears will eventually give way to worries about the growing shortage of young workers.One unavoidable solution:putting older people back to work,whether they like it or not.”可以得出答案.

Text 2
One important thing during the pre-Christmas rush at our house was the arrival of my daughter’s kindergarten report card.She got high praise for her reading,vocabulary and overall enthusiasm.On the other hand,we learnt that she has work to do on her numbers and facility with the computer,though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words that might be interpreted as negative in describing her efforts.A number system indicates how she’s measuring up in each area without any mention of passing or failing.
All of which seems to make my daughter’s school neither fish nor fowl when it comes to the debate over the merits of giving formal grades to kids.At one level,the advantages and disadvantages are obvious.A grade system provides a straightforward standard by which to measure how your child is progressing at school-and how he or she is getting on compared to other children.But as writer Sue Ferguson notes,“Grades can deceive.”The aim should be“to measure learning,not simply what a student can recall on a test.”The two aren’t the same---and if you doubt that as an adult,ask yourself whether you could sit down without any preparation and still pass those high-school-level examinations.
If youre old enough,you’ve lived through this debate before.At one time,it was considered unfair to put children in direct competition with one another if it could be avoided.The intention behind that may have been good,but it ignored the fact that competition,and the will to come out on top,are essential components of the human condition.
This time around,educators working with a no-grades approach are emphasizing different reasons.The thing is,that approach is much more commonplace in the adult workplace than is the traditional pass-fail system we place on our children.Many workplaces conduct regular employee evaluations.There are usually fairly strict limits to what an employer can tell an employee in those evaluations-and even then,negative evaluations can be challenged by the employee.No matter where you sit in the debate over the grade system,then,the real question is this:if it’s so good for kids,why isn’t that also true for adults?
31.The school report indicates that the writer’s daughter_______.
[A]lacks interest in her school work
[B]ranks among the best at language
[C]has some trouble with her handwriting
[D]needs to improve in math and computer skills
參考答案:D
參考解析:由“she has work to do on her numbers and facility with the computer”可以得出答案.
32.We can learn that the girl,s school tries to deliver the report________.
[A]in a positive way B.in a scientific way
[C]in an attractive way[D]in an enthusiastic way
參考答案:A
參考解析:由“though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words that might be interpreted as negative in describing her efforts”可以得出答案.
33.Sue Ferguson seems dissatisfied with the grade system for its focus on_______.
[A]the process of getting the knowledge
B.the capability of memorizing for the test
[C]the procedure of measuring learning
[D]the standard of comparing schools
參考答案:B
參考解析:由“The aim should be“to measure learning,not simply what a student can recall on a test.”可以得出答案.
34.The writer would agree that cutting children off from competition is ________.
[A]fit for human development B.fit for their age and experience
[C]against a key part of human nature[D]out of consideration for children
參考答案:C
參考解析:由“but it ignored the fact that competition,and the will to come out on top,are essential components of the human condition”可以得出答案.
35.It can be learned that todays educators supporting the no-grades approach insist that________.
[A]kids be allowed to challenge the negative evaluations
B.the traditional teacher-student relationship be changed
[C]the evaluation system for kids be similar to that for adults
[D]strict rules be set up in evaluating school children
參考答案:B
參考解析:由“that approach is much more commonplace in the adult workplace than is the traditional pass-fail system we place on our children;if it’s so good for kids”可以得出答案.

Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
When Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year, he promised to end a controversial (有爭議的), citywide cell-phone ban(禁令)in public schools, which is not equally enforced in all schools. Now, under his leadership, the city is preparing to end the ban. It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class.
Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, “If we dont see it, we dont know about it.” That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets.
But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, die ban has been strictly enforced. The detectors were installed to keep weapon out of schools，but the scanners(掃描器)can also detect cell phones. So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them.
The ban was put into place in 2007 under mayor Michael Bloomberg. Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban. Workers in vans(廂式貨車)that resemble food tracks store teens cell phones and Other devices for a dollar a day,
(79) Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency. They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory. Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who cant afford to pay to store their phones.
Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy. (80) It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests.
11. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?
A. New York City will give financial aid to poor students.
B. New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries.
C. New York City plans to install metal detectors in all public schools.
D. New York City will soon end a ban on cell phones in schools.
12. Students pay ______ a day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school.
A. a dollars B. two dollars C. five dollars D. ten dollars
13. Metal detectors were installed in 88 city schools, mainly to keep _______ out of schools.
A. cell phones B. weapons C. alcohol D. drugs
14. The word discriminatory in Paragraph 5 probably means________.
A. necessary B. tough C. strict D. unfair
15. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. After the cell-phone ban is ended, students can use their phones during class.
B. The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools.
C. The cell-phone ban was put into place in 2008 under Mayor Bill de Blasio.
D. A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses.

Women are also underrepresented in the administration and this is because there are so few women full professors. In 1985,Regent Beryl Milburn produced a report blasting the University of Texas System adminitration for not encouraging women.The University was rated among the lowest for the system.In a 1987 ,Milburn commended the progress that was made and called for even more improvement. One of the positive results from her study was a System-wide program to inform women of available administrative jobs. College of Communication Associate Dean Patrica Witherspoon,said it is important that woman be flexible when it comesto relocating if they want to rise in the ranks. Although a woman may face a chilly climate on campus , many times in order for her to succeed , she must rise above the problems around her and concentrate on her work. Until women make up a greater percentage of the senior positions in the University and all academia,inequities will exist. "Women need to spend their energies and time doing scholarly activities that are important here at the University." Spirduso said. "If they do that will be successful in this system.If they -
spend their time in little groups mourning the sexual discrimination that they think exists here, they are wasting valuable study time."

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage
Among all the animals, the ape is most like human beings. Both people and apes have the similar brain structure, the similar nerve system, and the similar kind of blood.
There are four kinds of apes: the chimpanzee(黑猩猩), the orangutan(猩猩), the gorilla(大猩猩), and the gibbon(長臂猿). They live in the deep forests and warm tropical regions of Africa and of Southeast Asia, including Indonesia.
All apes are covered with brown, reddish-brown, or black hair everywhere on their bodies except their faces, feet, and hands. Their hands each have four fingers and a thumb that helps them grip things the way our thumbs help us. But they also have a thumb on each foot instead of a big toe. Thus they can hold things with their feet also. Having short, weak legs, apes do not walk on the ground very much. However, their arms are very strong. This enables them to swing from branches and travel very quickly from tree to tree.
These animals live in small family groups that move from place to place in search of vegetables and fruits. They also eat eggs, small animals, nuts, and insects. When they are tired, they build nests in the trees. But they rarely sleep there for more than a night or two. Then they move on to look for more food.
There are some differences among the following three kids of apes. The gibbon is never more than three feet high and weight only about fourteen pounds. The gorilla grows to be six feet tall and weight up to 600 pounds. The orangutan is smaller than the gorilla. It stands three to five feet tall and weight up to 200 pounds.
Chimpanzees are the smartest of all apes. They can be taught to sit at a table and eat, to dress themselves, and to do things that human children can do.
11. What does the first paragraph tell us?
[A] The ape looks like human beings most.
[B] People and the ape think alike.
[C] People and the ape behave alike.
[D] The ape is the most intellectual animal in the world.

[A] All apes are brown or black.
[B] All parts of apes’ bodies are covered with hair.
[C] Apes have weak legs but very strong arms.
[D] Apes’ arms are strong enough to swim.
13. Apes build nests in the trees but seldom sleep there for more than a night or two because ________.
[A] They like to live in small family groups
[B] They like to move from place to place in search of more food
[C] They like to eat eggs, small animals, nuts and insects
[D] it rains too often in the deep forests
14. Among the three kinds of apes, ________.
[A] the gorilla is the biggest
[B] the gibbon is only three feet high but it is heavier than the orangutan
[C] the orangutan is smaller than the gorilla and cleverer than the gibbon
[D] the orangutan can stand up to a great height, but others cannot
15. The last paragraph tells us that ________.
[A] chimpanzees can do better than human children
[B] chimpanzees can do many things that human children cannot do
[C] human children can do many things that chimpanzees cannot do
[D] the intelligence of chimpanzees is similar to that of human children

Examinations have a longer history in China than in any other country, yet it is today an issue around in which controversy flourishes. At each stage of their school lives children are faced with exams: exams to enter junior middle school, senior middle school, vocational school, colleges and universities. As a result of having constantly to think of these hurdles facing them children find themselves under constant pressure, unable to take time off from studying exam-oriented subjects to relax with friends or to develop other interests. Within school the concentration on exam success leads to the neglect of courses which are not central to the examinations and a method of teaching and learning which emphasizes training the ability to do well in tests but neglects developing the ability to think creatively.
Despite such criticisms the examination system still has its defenders. Without it, they argue, how can we test students abilities and evaluate the effectiveness of teachers and schools? They believe that they provide the only objective way of selecting students and reduce the exercise of unfair back-door practices to gain advantage for children on the basis of influence or corruption. Examinations are also felt to offer the impetus to students to master their subject in a way in which they otherwise might not. "While too much anxiety can be a bad thing, a little anxiety can stimulate students to learn better than if left without any test to pass," says Li Jie, a leading advocate of the value of testing. "I can remember things now which give me great pleasure which I doubt I would have learned at the time if I had not had to do so for the examinations."
57. Which of the following statements about examinations in China is correct?
[A] People can make money out of examinations.
[B] Only students of today have to take examinations.
[C] Students have to learn more about history than about any other subjects.
[D] People have different opinions concerning the value of examinations.
58. What is a possible result if students pay too much attention to examinations?
[A] Students neglect those exam-oriented subjects.
[B] Students are unable to relax with friends or to develop other interests.
[C] Teachers neglect the training of the students ability to do well in tests.
[D] Students only pay attention to the development of their ability to think creatively.
59. Which of the following has NOT been mentioned as the advantage of examinations?
[A] Examinations are the only objective way of selecting students.
[B] Examinations are the only objective way to eliminate the problem of corruption.
[C] Examinations can tell us that too much anxiety can be a bad thing.
[D] Examinations can better stimulate students to study.
60. According to the passage, why are some people against exams?
[A] They are meaningless. [B] They will make students learn something useless.
[C] They are believed to cause stress for the students. [D] They are not related to the reality of life.
61. Which of the following is an acceptable summary of the organization of this passage?
[A] Discussing a problem in education. [B] Refuting a long held opinion.
[C] Persuading people to believe an idea. [D] Presenting a controversial issue and arguments from both sides.

There are two factors which determine an individuals intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared. If an individual is handicapped envionmentally ,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable. The importance of environment in determining an individuals intellingence can be -
demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark X. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old , their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was reated by parents of low intelligence in an isolatedcommunity with poor educational pooprtunities.Mark was reared inthe home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child , sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This enviromental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were giben tesets to measure their intelligence. Marks I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities , the twins , having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.
1.This selection can best be titled_________.
a.Measuring Your Intelligence

If the salinity(含鹽量) of ocean waters is analyzed, it is found to vary only slightly from place to place.Nevertheless, some of these small changes are important. There are three basic processes that cause a change in oceanic salinity. One of these is the subtraction of water from the ocean by means of evaporation--conversion of liquid water to water vapor. In this manner, the salinity is increased, since the salts staybehind. If this is carried to the extreme, of course, white crystals of salt would be left behind.
The opposite of evaporation is precipitation(降水), such as rain, by which water is added to the ocean. Here the ocean is being diluted(稀釋) so that the salinity is decreased. This may occur in areas of high rainfall or in coastal regions where rivers flow into the ocean. Thus salinity may be increased by the subtraction of water by evaporation, or decreased by the addition of fresh water by precipitation or runoff(形成地表水部分的降水).
Normally, in tropical regions where the sun is very strong, the ocean salinity is somewhat higher than it is in other parts of the world where there is not as much evaporation. Similarly, in coastal regions whererivers dilute the sea, salinity is somewhat lower than in other oceanic areas.
A third process by which salinity may be altered is associated with the formation and melting of sea ice. When seawater is frozen, the dissolved materials are left behind. In this manner, seawater directly beneath freshly formed sea ice has a higher salinity than it did before the ice appeared. Of course, when this ice melts, it will tend to decrease the salinity of the surrounding water.
In the Weddell Sea, off Antarctica, the densest water in the oceans is formed as a result of this freezingprocess, which increases the salinity of cold water. This heavy water sinks and is found in the deeper portions of the oceans of the world.
