Its a
19、lready not going well. But in the end, in a year or two maybe, the online education adventure were watching may be worth the pain, but not in the way you may imagine.We probably should not look sideways at schools that are trying to keep their programs running by turning to online options. It can ea
20、sily seem like the best of the bad options. But it started badly. As college Presidents, Boards, Superintendents and others were wrestling with these awful choices, they were flooded with solicitations from profit-seeking companies offering to move them online. It was unseemly like the fire departme
21、nt calling you in the middle of a house fire to offer assistance, for a reasonable fee.Thats not to say all the companies that sell online education platforms and services are behaving that way.

27、ies just want to make moneyDThere have been many problems with our schools today, the biggest of which is closely related to our culture. In general, our culture, as represented in the media, gets excited by famous stars, and constantly stresses that its what you have, not what you are, that counts.
28、 Parents are encouraged to be away from even very small children for most of the day. Too many voters go for politicians who would rather cut school funding (基金) than to get rid of tax cuts for the wealthy. All contribute greatly to the problems of educating our children. Todays teachers have to dea
29、l with a culture that is vastly different than in the past. They report that there is, among more children than ever, a lack of motivation, no drive to succeed or even try.

As Leonard Sax wrote in “Boys Adrift”, “Teenage boys are looking for models of mature adulthood, but we no longer make any collective effort to provide such mod
31、els.” Girls are attacked not only with such annoying images (形象) of males, but also with women who are preoccupied with appearance and are extremely materialistic. In such a cultural environment, it is more important than ever to have responsible, loving and caring parents who have enough time and m
32、otivation to devote to their children and see to it as their duty to model for them and raise them with high standards of honesty and responsibility along with tending to their physical needs. They need to care enough to see that their children are not attacked with the garbage that comes from movie
33、, television and computer screens. In todays culture, they are basically alone in this effort since, unfortunately, so much is working against them. Until we, as a culture, face the truth about ourselves that we are not providing adequately for a great many of our children the storm will continue to

37、alities of an innovative (创新的) leader. 36 Leaders who are too optimistic can actually reduce their teams morale (斗志) and productivity. This is because too much optimism comes across as blind to the challenges that a team may face along the course of a project. 37 One way is to focus on the challenge
38、s that lie ahead for your team. When leaders talk about the reasons why an approach might not work, someone on their team is more likely to jump in and insist on why the team will succeed. It s a bit like reverse psychology (逆反心理). 38 Ask questions such as, “What problems do you see that I may be mi
39、ssing? Are there reasons we shouldnt go on? And where might our assumptions be wrong?”Through this line of questioning, you as the leader acknowledge that there may be challenges while also showing your confidence in your team to overcome them. 39 But at the same time, employees want their managers
40、to recognize the barriers they overcome in order to help the team succeed.The next time you want to encourage your team, express your confidence in their abilities while acknowledging that there may be struggles along the way. Thats right. 40 Leaders who see the glass as too full actually reduce the
41、 success of their teams.A. With it, we can achieve anything.B. Theres a pessimistic view, however.C. To be a good leader, you need to be less optimistic.D. Another way is for leaders to be more skillful in asking questions.E. Nowhere is optimism more important than in leading organizations.F. The fo
42、llowing are ways for leaders to avoid coming across as too optimistic.G. Nobody wants to work with a person who frequently adds bad news and negative feelings to a gathering.第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。What is a person supposed to do
