22、 the word or phrase that best fits the context.(A)The term home schooling means educating children at home or in places other than a normal setting such as a public or private school. There are many reasons why parents choose home schooling for their children. Some parents are _45_ with the quality
23、of education in the public schools. Others do not want their children to have to worry about “peer pressure”, or social pressure from friends. They say it may have a(n) _46_ effect on the childs studies. These parents _47_ this type of pressure will lead to bad behavior such as smoking, drinking alc
24、ohol, and taking drugs.Bullying(欺负) from other students is another concern. Still other parents choose this type of _48_ for religious reasons. Whatever the _49_ may be, it is evident that more and more children are being taken out of normal schools every year. _50_, many questions have emerged, enc
25、ouraging the debate over home schooling against public schooling.What then is the future of education? Will this new model of schooling replace normal schools? Will computers and the Internet _51_ our classrooms and teachers? As the debate continues, so do the questions about what home schoolers are
26、 studying at home. How can parents ensure that their children are prepared _52_ for college? How are home schoolers assessed to make sure they are getting the same educational standards that school students must have?Finally, there are questions regarding the childrens emotional development.

30、ed to look after the older people in our community and help them. They also say that young people today dont care about anything or anyone. _56_, I think the reason why we looked after older people was that we had no _57_. People had to live with their parents and grandparents because they had no mo
31、ney. Young people today earn more and have more freedom to live where they want. _58_ this, I think that they are still interested in older people. For example, young people often _59_ to help me when I get on and off the bus with heavy shopping.Their second argument is that in our day we didnt _60_
32、 to be given jobs and that young people now dont look for jobs, but just complain about unemployment. On the other hand, things were easier in the past and it was always easy to get a job _61_ you had friends and contacts. It is really harder today. Young people complain about unemployment and I thi
33、nk they have _62_ reason to complain.In conclusion I think there is _63_ for the future. This generation, like generations before them, has new _64_ as well as old problems.

38、A famous prince called Llewellyn had lived in the area during the Middle Ages and had been keen on dogs. This is hardly surprising as hunting was extremely popular at that time. So what he did was to make up the story of the brave and faithful Gelert and how he had been killed by his ungrateful mast
39、er.Of course, people would be far more likely to believe the story if there was something they could see.

50、ppear to switch jobs and focus instead on sound, a new study has found.The study, by researchers at the University of Montreal, involved 7 adults who could see and 12 adults who had lost their vision when they were children. Each participant sat in a room with 16 loudspeakers at different locations.
51、 The room was designed so that there were no echoes. During the experiment, the speakers irregularly produced sounds. Participants had to point to where the sounds were coming from. Meanwhile, the researchers monitored blood flow in the brains of the participants to see which brain structures were w
52、orking during the task.The results showed that five of the blind participants were very good at pointing to where sounds were coming from. In these people, blood flow increased in the visual cortex- an area at the back of the right side of the brain. This part of the brain is usually associated with
53、 vision.The other seven blind participants showed no increase in activity in the visual cortex. These people didnt do very well at picking out where sounds were coming from. Now, the researchers are looking at whether these people have gained an enhanced sense of touch instead of sound to replace th

58、after the loss of a certain function. (D)Indians snake charmers are to be retrained as wildlife teachers under a plan to prevent their unique skills and knowledge from being lost. The charmers, who make snakes dance to the sound of flutes(笛子), used to be a traditional feature of Indian life, perform
59、ing in towns and villages, until they were banned in 1972 to control the trade in snake skins.The government is now considering a plan to train the saperas, as they are known, to visit schools and zoos to tell children about forests and wildlife. There is also a proposal to set up a “dial a snake ch
60、armer” service to help householders to deal with unwelcome intruders.“For generations they have been a feature of Indian life but now they cant earn a living for fear of arrest,” said Behar Dutt, a conservationist behind the plans, “if a policeman doesnt catch them, animal rights activists report th
61、em.”Many snake charmers have continued to work clandestinely since the ban, despite the threat of up to three years in jail. But their trademark cloth-covered baskets, hung from a bamboo pole carried across their shoulders, make them an easy target for police.The fate of Shisha Nath, 56, from Badarp
62、ur, a village just outside of Delhi, is typical of practitioners(从业者) of the dying art. “I used to earn enough to support my family and send my children to school, he said. Now its hard to earn even f, 1 a day. My children want to be snake charmers. Its our identity. We love the work. But it s becom
63、e impossible.Next month Dutts project to train 30 snake charmers will begin at a snake park in Pune, western India, where experts will enrich their home-grown skills with some formal knowledge.More than the law, though, it is the dishonest attitude of their fellow countryman that angers many snake c
64、harmers.Were disturbed all the time but when people want a snake removed from the house, they rush to us, said Prakash Nath, who was ordered recently to the home of Sonia Gandhi, the Congress party leader.76.According to the passage, snake charmers will be retrained as wildlife teachers mainly becau

Tuvaluan people are improving their living standards despite the rising sea80._If you suddenly received a lot of money, how would you sp
70、end it? For the people of Tuvalu, a tiny state comprising nine islands in the South Pacific, something unusual happened. In 1999 Tuvalu, with its population of 11,000,was the third poorest state in the world. Later, Tuvalu received a domain name on the Internet the letters “.tv”. A communication com
71、pany from California quickly offered to buy the domain name for $ 40 million. The islanders became very rich.81._At the same time the islanders received some very bad news. Due to global warming, and because the islands are only 3m above sea level, Tuvalu will probably become the first state in the
72、world to disappear under the sea. According to scientific estimates, the islands will suffer severe floods within the next 15 - 20 years, and by the end of the century, the islands will have disappeared from sight altogether.82._You can already see signs of the rising sea on Tuvalu. Pools of seawate
73、r appear here and there, some beaches are swallowed by the waves, and the roots of trees are rotting by the ocean. The rains cause temporary floods.83._But despite these problems, the Tuvaluan had their new money. Paul Lindsay, a documentary film - maker, went all the way to Tuvalu, and came back wi
74、th an incredible story. As the water rises, the Tuvaluan are using the money to develop the land that is soon to disappear. They are building new houses, planning nightclubs, restaurants and hotels, and new cars are driving around on new roads. Just because we are sinking, it doesnt mean we dont wan
75、t to raise our standards of living. Lindsay was told by Sam Teo, Tuvalu s minister for natural resources.84._Of the $ 40 million Tuvalu received through the Internet deal, $ 10 million was used to asphalt the islands L9km of roads. Before 1999 there were four cars on the islands. The Tuvaluan used t
76、o walk or cycle everywhere. There was a flood of imported foods and goods and soon these had unexpected consequences. The Tuvaluan people now suffer from diseases such as obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes. Others discovered that it was too expensive for them to keep their cars. There is now
