Most of us have noticed how important physical setting is to efficiency and comfort in
29、 our work. College classroom space should be designed to encourage the activity of critical thinking.We are in the 21st century now, but step into almost any college classroom and you step back in time at least a hundred years. Desks are normally in straight rows, so students can clearly see the tea
30、cher but not all their classmates. The assumption behind such an arrangement is obvious: Everything of importance comes from the teacher.With a little imagination and effort, unless desks are fixed to the floor, the teacher can correct this situation and create space that encourages interchange amon
31、g students. In small or standard-size classes, chairs, desks, and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways: circles, U-shapes or semicircles. The primary goal should be for everyone to be able to see everyone else.Arrangement of the classroom should also make it easy to divide students into small
32、 groups for discussion or problem-solving exercises. Small classes with movable desks and tables present no problem. Even in large lecture halls, it is possible for students to turn around and form groups of four or six. Breaking a class into small groups provides more opportunities for students to
33、interact with each other, think out loud, and see how other students thinking processes operate-all these are essential elements in developing new modes of critical thinking.In courses that regularly use a small group format, students might be asked to stay in the same small groups throughout the co
34、urse. A colleague of mine, John, allows students to move around during the first two weeks, until they find a group they are comfortable with. John then asks them to stay in the same seat, with the same group, from that time on. This not only creates a comfortable setting for interaction but helps h
35、im learn students names and faces.56. The final purpose of arranging desks in circles or U-shapes is _. A. for teachers to divide students into small groups B. for teachers to find out how students think C. to make it possible for students to interact with each other D. to give students more opportu
36、nities to practice speaking57. The expression “step back in time at least a hundred years” is intended to convey that_. A. college classrooms often reminded people of their past B. critical thinking was encouraged even one century ago C. desk arrangement in a classroom was quite different from that
37、a hundred years ago D. todays arrangement of college classroom space has little difference from pasts58. The way of arranging desks in classrooms in straight rows indicates that _. A. students can be easily prevented from cheating during tests B. teachers play a significant role in a classroom C.it
38、is convenient for teachers to monitor students D. it is good for students to concentrate on listening to teachersBThe Catskill Mountains are a year-round playground for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers. You will find a number of relaxing inns ready to meet your needs. Caleb Streets Inn Located
39、in the historic village of Catskill at the base of the mountains, Caleb Streets Inn was built in 1785. It provides a view of the garden and Catskill Creek or guests can step outside for a walk along the Hudson River. A full breakfast is served every morning. Each of the four Pet-friendly rooms offer
40、s a private bath and a view of the river and neighboring buildings. Hiking trails(小路), golf courses and historic sites are only a short drive away.Winter Clove Inn Nature lovers can enjoy a pleasant location in the Northern Catskill Wilderness Preserve at Winter Clove Inn. With wood floors, each roo
41、m has a private bath and air conditioning(空调). With active days of tennis, hiking or cross- country skiing ahead, guests dont have to go far for a breakfast, lunch or dinner beside the fireplace at inns restaurant.Windham House A former pub built in 1805, Christmans Windham House is the oldest inn c
42、ontinually operating in the Catskills. The 300 acres of grounds in the town of Windham include a tennis court, golf course, heated pool and a restaurant. Guests can relax on private balconies (阳台) overlooking a golf course and take their meals at Christman s Windham House Restaurant. The inn is less
43、 than 2 miles from the hiking trails of Windham Mountain.Washington Irving In If youre looking for a mountain inn with a Victorian feel, Washington Irving Inn has much to offer. Furnished with antiques, each of the 15 rooms has a private bath. Free breakfast is served. Hikers are a short walk from K
44、aaterskill Falls and Hunter Mountain trails.59. What is special about Caleb Streets Inn? A. It has a golf course for guest B. It provides a beautiful view of Kaaterskill Falls C. Its decorated with wood floors D. It allows guests to take their dog or cat with them60. All the four inns in the passage
45、 _ A. have private bathrooms B. are convenient for hiking C. has air conditioning in the rooms D. serve free breakfast in the morningC Sleep deprivation(缺失)is an important hidden factor in lowering the achievement of school pupils, according to researchers carrying out international education tests.
46、 It is a particular problem in richer countries with sleep experts linking it to the use of mobile phones and computers in bedroom late at night. Sleep deprivation is such a serious problem that lessons have to be dragged down to a lower level to suit sleep-deprived learners, the study found. The in
47、ternational comparison, carried out by Boston College, found the United States to have the highest number of sleep-deprived students, with 73% of 9- and 10-year-olds and 80% of 13- and 14-year-olds identified by their teachers as being negatively affected. In literacy(读写能力) tests there were 76% of 9
48、- and 10-year-olds lacking sleep. This was much higher than the international average of 47% of primary pupils needing more sleep and 57% among the secondary age group. Other countries with the most sleep-deprived youngsters were New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, Australia, England, Ireland and France. Hig
49、h-performing Finland is also among the most lacking in sleep. Countries with the best records for getting enough sleep include Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Portugal, the Czech Republic, Japan and Malta.The analysis was part of the huge date-gathering process for global education rankings, the Trends in I
50、nternational Mathematics and Science Study(TIMSS)and Progress in International Reading Literacy Study(PIRLS) “I think we underestimate the impact of sleep. Our data show that across countries internationally, on average, children who have more sleep achieve higher in maths, science and reading. That
51、 is exactly what our data show,” says Chad Minnich of the TIMSS and PIRLS International Study Center. “Its the same link for children who are lacking basic nutrition,” says Mr Minnich, based at the Lynch School of Education, Boston College. “If you are unable to concentrate, to attend mentally, you
52、are unable to achieve at your best level, because your mind and body are in need of something more basic. Sleep is a fundamental need for all children. If teachers report such large proportions of children suffering from lack of sleep, its having a significant impact. But worse than that, teachers a
53、re having to adjust their instruction based on those children who are suffering from a lack of sleep. The children who are suffering from a lack of sleep are driving down instruction.”That means that even the children who are getting enough sleep are still suffering from this sleep-related lowering.
54、61. What did the researchers of Boston College try to find?A. Why children dont get enough sleep B. How many hours children sleep every nightC. The relationship between sleep and health D. The relationship between sleep and test results62. Many children suffer from sleep deprivation because _.A. the
55、y sit in front of the TV for too long B. modern technological devices consume a lot of their timeC. their homework occupies too much of their time D.they can hardly sleep soundly and deeply63. Which of the following countries has the most sleep-deprived students?A. Japan B. Malta C. Finland D. Portu
56、gal64. Why are children who get enough sleep also victims?A. Because they are disturbed by sleep-deprived studentsB. Because the teachers waste time disciplining sleep-deprived studentsC. Because they have to spend time helping sleep-deprived studentsD. Because teaching is driven down by sleep-depri
57、ved studentsD A four-year-old girl sees three biscuits divided between a stuffed crocodile and a teddy bear. The crocodile gets two; the bear one. “Is that fair?” asks the experimenter. The girl judges that it is not. “How about now?” asks the experimenter, breaking the bears single biscuit in half.
58、 The girl cheers up: “Oh yes, now its fair. They both have two.” Strangely, children feel very strongly about fairness, even when they hardly understand it.Adults care about fairness too - but how much? One way to find out is by using the ultimatum (最后通牒) game, created by economist Werner Guth. Jack
59、 is given a pile of money and proposes how it should be divided with Jill. Jill can accept Jacks “ultimatum”, otherwise the deal is off, and neither gets anything.Suppose Jack and Jill dont care about fairness, just about accumulating cash. Then Jack can offer Jill as little as he likes and Jill wil
60、l still accept. After all, a little money is more than no money. But imagine, instead, that Jack and Jill both care only about fairness and that the fairest outcome is equality. Then Jack would offer Jill half the money; and Jill wouldnt accept otherwise.What happens when we ask people to play this
61、game for real? It turns out that people value fairness a lot. Anyone offered less than 20-30% of the money is likely to reject it. Receiving an unfair offers makes us feel sick. Happily, most offers are pretty equitable; indeed, by far the most common is a 50-50 split.But children, and adults, also
62、care about a very different sort of (un)fairness, namely cheating. Think how many games of snakes and ladders have ended in arguments when one child “accidentally” miscounts her moves and another child objects. But this sense of fairness isnt about equality of outcome: games inevitably have winners
63、and losers. Here, fairness is about playing by the rules.Both fairness-as-equality and fairness-as-no-cheating matter. Which is more important: equality or no-cheating? I think the answer is neither. The national lottery(彩票), like other lotteries, certainly doesnt make the world more equal: a few pe
64、ople get rich and most people get nothing. Nevertheless, we hope, it is fair - but what does this mean? The fairness-as-no-cheating viewpoint has a ready answer: a lottery is fair if it is conducted according to the “rules”. But which rules? None of us has the slightest idea, I suspect. Suppose that
65、 buried in the small print at lottery HQ is a rule that forbids people with a particular surname (lets say, Moriarty). So a Ms Moriarty could buy a ticket each week for years without any chance of success.How would she react if she found out? Surely with anger: how dare the organisers let her play,
66、week after week, without mentioning that she couldnt possibly win! Shed reasonably feel unfairly treated because _.To protest(抗议) against unfairness, then, is to make an accusation of bad faith. From this viewpoint, an equal split between the crocodile and the bear seems fair because (normally, at l
67、east), it is the only split they would both agree to. But were the girl to learn that the crocodile doesnt like biscuits or that the bear isnt hungry, I suspect shed think it perfectly fair for one toy to take the whole. Inequality of biscuits (or anything else) isnt necessarily unfair, if both part
68、ies are happy. And the unfairness of cheating comes from the same source: wed never accept that someone else can unilaterally(单方面地) violate agreements that we have all signed up to.So perhaps the four-year-olds intuitions(直觉) about fairness is the beginnings of an understanding of negotiation. With
69、a sense of fairness, people will have to make us acceptable offers (or well reject their ultimatums) and stick by the (reasonable) rules, or well be on the warpath. So a sense of fairness is crucial to effective negotiation; and negotiation, over toys, treats etc, is part of life.65. It can be infer
70、red that in the ultimatum game, _.A. Jack keeps back all the money B. Jack has the final say in the division of moneyC. Jill can negotiate fair division with JackD. Jill has no choice but to accept any amount of money66.From Paragraph 2 to 4, we can conclude _.A.something is better than nothing afte
71、r all B. fairness means as much to adults as to childrenC. people will sacrifice money to avoid unfairnessD. a 30-70 split is acceptable to the majority67. Which of the following does fairness-as-no-cheating apply to?A. divisions of housework B. favoritism between children C.schooling opportunities
72、D. banned drugs in sport 68. Which of the following best fits in the blank in Paragraph 7?A. the lottery didnt follow the rules B. she was cheated out of the moneyC. the lottery wasnt equal at all D. she would never have agreed to those rules69. The chief factor in preventing unfairness is to _.A. e
73、stablish rules B. observe agreements C. strengthen morality D. understand negotiation 70. The main purpose of the passage is to _A. suggest how to achieve fairness B. declare the importance of fairnessC. present different attitudes to fairness D. explain why we love fairness第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分
74、10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。ID systems are used as a means for people to prove their identity, as a means of access control, or for many other situations. ID cards also contain a lot more information than simply the name of the holder. All ID cards con
75、tain information that is relevant to the institution that released them, so there is no single model that applies to all ID cards. Different institutions have different rules when it comes to ID cards, and ID cards used by students, in universities, will not have the same security features as those
76、used in the military, for example. The more important the institution is, the more important the security is, and the more security features will be used to prevent duplication(复制) of an ID card.Anyone with a printer that can print ID cards can duplicate in ID card, if it does not have any security
77、measures. There have been lots of cases, especially in low security institutions, where ID cards have been duplicated and this was not noticed, since the person holding the card usually flashed it when it was requested, and that was not enough to notice that it is a fake.That may not be extremely im
78、portant when it is simply a case of a student trying to enter the campus of another university, but it can be of vital importance if it happens in a military institution. Checks in military institutions are much stricter and the personnel checking the card are always trained to spot fakes in a short
79、 amount of time. Some may think that creating an ID card is extremely difficult, but it is not. All it takes is a special printer that can print ID cards, a model and a photo ID. The fact that such printers can be freely ordered online has raised security issues with lots of companies and institutio
80、ns, and most have decided to either create their own ID cards, or simply use more advanced security features that regular home-users do not have access to. This includes magnetic stripes(磁条), chips, barcodes(条形码),and other methods. This does increase the cost of the card per person, so the total cos
81、t of the cards increases based on the number of employees the company has, but it also reduces security risks to a minimum. So ID systems, as basic as they seem, are an excellent security measure for any institution. To ensure that the IDs look good and function properly, the company that handles th
82、e card printing services should be top-class. Trying to save some money by choosing a cheaper provider is not really wise.
