48、延长的) school day, which could last until about 5 pm. Rather than setting homework that pupils could struggle with at home, where there may be limited access to computers, they will do that as independent study in the day. When they go home they should enjoy quality family time. That has been really w
49、ell received by parents who respect the fact that family time will be family time. But the school would still expect youngsters to study at home ahead of important exams.

50、o much. Peter Devonish . a teacher at the school, said, Having the children at school a bit longer to strengthen their learning is a really good idea, because they can have their time with the family.

51、fect to get children home at that time. Mr. Devonish said they also set pupils project-based homework, such as looking at an energy- efficient house, which allowed them to combine independent study with working with their parents. Craig Morrison, another teacher, said, A large problem with homework

But having a drink in space isnt as easy as it is on the earth. You
57、have to come up with a whole new way to drink, and that s what scientists are trying to do. The coffee would be very hard to control in a normal cup, said physics professor Mark Weislogel. You d have to shake the cup toward your face and hope that some of the hot liquid floats toward your mouth. Whe
58、n it comes to guessing what liquids will do in new systems, we are often in the dark. Weislogel believes that creating a big zero - gravity cup would help improve the lives of astronauts in space, so he and other researchers per formed a series of experiments with liquids on the International Space
59、Station (ISS) to see how they move upwards on surfaces in zero gravity. In one of the tests, they placed two surfaces very close together to create a very narrow tunnel. They wanted to see if liquid would easily flow up the tunnel. In another test , the researchers tried to figure out the best angle
60、 to place the narrow tunnel at so that the liquids would travel along the corners. The end result is a cup that doesnt look like a normal coffee cup at all. One side of the cup has a very sharp angle and, in zero gravity, the liquid naturally flows up that angled side of the cup, right up to the dri
61、nker s lips. The zero-gravity coffee cup is currently being tested on the ISS by astronaut Don Pettit, who worked with the researchers and helped them invent it. As you sip (啜饮) , more liquid keeps coming , and you can enjoy your coffee in a weightless environment - clear down to the last drop, said
62、 Pettit, who thinks that future humans on Mars will be using this kind of cup to drink during celebrations !61. We can learn from Paragraph l that . A. astronauts have difficulty drinking Coffee in space B. coffee drinks in the morning can make astronauts sleepy C. astronauts drink coffee in the sam
63、e way as on the earth D. scientists have made coffee in zero gravity successfully62. The underlined sentence in Para. 2 may mean _ A. rooms in the Space Station lack light B. scientists can t see anything in the dark C. scientists know little about it D. coffee can be drunk in the dark63. What do we
64、 know about Weislogels cup? A. It looks like a very narrow tunnel. B. Each of its sides has a sharp angle. C. It is the same as the normal cup we are using. D. The liquid in it will flow to the drinkers itself.64. According to Pettit, we can learn the coffee cup is _. A. practical B. weightless C. s
65、hapeless D. awkward65. What is the main idea of the passage? A. When humans will drink coffee on Mars. B. How humans will drink coffee in zero gravity. C. How experiments lead to unexpected patents. D. When a normal cup can be used in space.2014年高考模拟试题英 语第卷第三部分写作(共两节,满分45分)第一节阅读表达(每小题3分,满分15分) 阅读下面短
