24、he Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Naurus heartbreaking story could have one good consequence other countries might learn from its mistakes. For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived the remote island of Nauru, far from wester
25、n civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island. However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began
26、to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900. Naurus real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐)on the
27、island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate. A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it
28、takes away the material it wants. Strip mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon. In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate. Unfor
29、tunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing
30、. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen. 56. What might be the authors purpose in writing the text?A. To seek help for Naurus problems.B. To give a warning to other
31、 countriesC. To show the importance of money D. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.57. The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from _. A. soil pollutionB. phosphate overmining C. farming activity D. whale hunting 58. What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?A. The ecological damag
32、e is difficult to repair.B. The leaders will take the experts words seriously. C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans D. The phosphate mines were destroyed BGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who
33、has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughte
34、r the poem that begins Twinkle, twinkle, little star or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will rememb
35、er it. In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as Twinkle, twinkle, little star and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We no
36、t only learn but overlearn. The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule. that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood. The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination,
37、 though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really nece
38、ssary for ones future development.59.What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.“D. Stories for children are easy to remember.60. The author explains the law

According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_.A. a result of overlearning B. a special case of cramming C. a skill to deal with math problems D. a bas
40、ic step towards advanced studies62. What is the authors opinion on cramming?A. It leads to failure in college exams. B. Its helpful only in a limited way.C. Its possible to result in poor memory. D. It increases students learning interest.CThe Basics of MathMade ClearBasic Math introduces students t
41、o the basic concepts of mathematics, as well as the fundamentals of more tricky areas. These 30 fantastic lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra and beyond.The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. They al
42、so look into exponents(指数), the order of operations, and square roots. In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how these operations can be us
43、ed practically.Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have seeme
44、d so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathematics and overcome their anxiety about this amazingand completely understandablefield of study.By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the myste
45、ry(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confidence than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as “the best math teacher in America,” is a d
46、evoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical concepts in ways that make them seem clear and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems, he is master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary.With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State

All the summer world was bright and fresh, and full of life. There was cheer on every face and a spring in every step.Tom appeared on the sidewalk with
51、 a bucket of whitewash and a long-handled brush. He stopped by the fence in front of the house where he lived with his aunt Polly. He looked at it, and all joy left him. The fence was long and high. He put the brush into the whitewash and moved it along the top of the fence. He repeated the operatio
52、n. He felt he could not continue and sat down.He knew that his friends would arrive soon with all kinds of interesting plans for the day. They would walk past him and laugh. They would make jokes about his having to work on a beautiful summer Saturday. The thought burned him like fire.He put his han
53、d into his pockets and took out all that he owned. Perhaps he could find some way to pay someone to do the whitewashing for him. But there was nothing of value in his pocketsnothing that could buy even half an hour of freedom. So he put the bits of toys back into his pockets and gave up the idea.At
54、this dark and hopeless moment, a wonderful idea came to him. It filled his mind with a great, bright light. Calmly he picked up the brush and started again to whitewash.While Tom was working, Ben Rogers appeared. Ben was eating an apple as he walked along the street. As he walked along, he was makin
55、g noises like the sound of a riverboat. First he shouted loudly, like a boat captain. Then he said “Ding-Dong-Dong”, “Ding-Dong-Dong” again and again, like the bell of a riverboat. And he made other strange noises. When he came close to Tom, he stopped.Tom went on whitewashing. He did not look at Be
56、n. Ben stared a moment and then said: Hello! Im going swimming, but you cant go, can you?”No answer. Tom moved his brush carefully along the fence and looked at the result with the eye of an artist. Ben came nearer. Toms mouth watered for the apple, but he kept on working.Ben said, Hello, old fellow
57、, youve got to work, hey?Tom turned suddenly and said, Why, its you, Ben! I wasnt noticing.Say Im going swimming. Dont you wish you could? But of course youd rather work wouldnt you? Of course you would.Tom looked at the boy a bit, and said What do you call work?Why, isnt that work?Tom went back to
58、his whitewashing, and answered casually,Well, maybe it is, and maybe it isnt. All I know is, it suits Tom Sawyer.Oh come, now, you dont mean to say that you like it?The brush continued to move.Like it? Well, I dont see why I shouldnt like it. Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?Be
59、n stopped eating his apple. Tom moved his brush back and forth, stepped back to look at the result, added a touch here and there, and stepped back again. Ben watched every move and got more and more interested. Soon he said,Say, Tom, let me whitewash a little.Tom thought for a moment, was about to a
60、gree; but he changed his mind:No no it wont do, Ben. You see, Aunt Polly wants this fence to be perfect. It has got to be done very carefully. I dont think there is one boy in a thousand, maybe two thousand, that can do it well enough.No is that so? Oh come, now let me just try. Only just a little.B
61、en, Id like to, but if it isnt done right, Im afraid Aunt Polly Oh, Ill be careful. Now let me try. Say - Ill give you the core（核心）of my apple.Well, here No, Ben, now dont. Im afraid Ill give you all of it.Tom gave up the brush with unwillingness on his face, but joy in his heart. And while Ben work
62、ed at the fence in the hot sun, Tom sat under a tree, eating the apple, and planning how to get more help. There were enough boys. Each one came to laugh, but remained to whitewash. By the time Ben was tired, Tom sold the next chance to Billy for a kite; and when Billy was tired, Johnny bought in fo
63、r a dead rat and so on, hour after hour. And when the middle of the afternoon came, Tom had won many treasuresAnd he had not worked. He had had a nice idle time all the time, with plenty of company - and the fence had been whitewashed three times. If he hadnt run out of whitewash, Tom would have own
64、ed everything belonging to his friends.He had discovered a great law of human action, namely, that in order to make a man or a boy want a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to get. 67Why did Tom take all his bits of toys out of his pockets?A. Because he is tired and wanted to pl
65、ay with his toys.B. Because he wanted to throw his toys away.C. Because he wanted to give his toys to his friendsD.

73、and teaching worthwhile for a teacher.To set up a good teacher-student relationship, a teachers behavior is especially important. The teacher should motivate the students so that they would like to learn. A good teacher should be patient, friendly and strict. Remember not to encourage students by pu
74、shing or forcing or punishing them. Being too friendly may cause students to become lazy and stop working hard. On the other hand, being too strict may frighten students. So，a teacher should avoid going to extremes in treating his / or her students. And the demand for the teachers who should take responsibility for his / her job should encourage students to think independently and learn to study by themselves and also make his lessons lively and interesting.
