23、lege graduates. C. Retired teachers. D. Computer majors, BI was born in Tuekahoe, Talbot Country, Maryland. I have no accurate(准确的)knowledgeof my age, never having seen any record containing it. By far the larger part of the slaves know as little of their age as horses know of theirs, and it is the
24、wish of most masters within my knowledge to keep their slaves thus ignorant(不知情的). I do not remember having ever met a slave who could tell of his birthday. They seldom come nearer to it than planting - time, harvesting, springtime, or falltime. A lack of information concerning my own was a source o
25、f unhappiness to me even during childhood. The white children could tell their ages, I could not tell why the same right ought to be taken away from me. I was not allowed to ask my master about it. He considered all such questions on the part of a slave improper and impolite. The nearest estimate (估
26、计) I can give makes me now between twenty - seven and twenty eight years of age. I come to this, from hearing my master say, some time during 1835, I was about seventeen years old. My mother was named Harriet Bailey. She was the daughter of Isaac and Betsey Bailey, both colored, and quite dark. My f
27、ather was a white man. The opinion was also whispered that my master was my father; but of the correctness of this opinion, I know nothing and I had no means to know. My mother and I were separated when I was but an infant - before I knew her as my mother. It is a common custom, in the part of Maryl
28、and from which I ran away, to part children from their mothers at a very early age. Frequently, before the child has reached its twelfth month, its mother is taken from it, and hired out on some farm a considerable distance off, and the child is placed under the care of an older woman, too old for f
29、ield labor. 59. It can be learned from the text that A. the slaves forgot the exact time when they were born B. the writer didn t know whether his master was his father C. the writer was about twenty - seven years old in 1835 D. the writers mother left him as soon as he was born 60. The underlined w
30、ord it in Paragraph 1 refers to _ A. their birthday B. my age C. a record D. Maryland 61. According to the passage, when the writer was very young his mother _A. ran away B. was light skinned C.had several children D.was sent elsewhere62. The author was most probably raised _ A. by his grandparents
31、B. by an old woman slave C. with his masters support D. together with other children63. How does the writer feel about not knowing his age? A. Curious. B. Unhappy. C. Astonished. D. Ashamed. C Recently, two professors of the University of Nebraska made a weekly television progrmme in which they disc
32、ussed worthwhile books. Even primary school graduates watched, listened and learned. Therefore, it is not true that ETV has not been taught in the United States. I doubt the statement that programmes which inform and enrich the mind in a general manner are wasted in schools. There is a need to teach
33、 directly by television if we take teaching in the broad sense of the term . Direct teaching by television has been explained as a series (系列) of television lessons directly related to a particular classroom textbook to satisfy the needs of pupils and teachers in a particular subject. Each lesson wi
34、ll be prepared by a teacher - specialist who also knows tele- vision production techniques and uses the modern technology in a television studio to put across his subject . Will such TV lessons do without the services of a classroom teacher or will they cost him his reputation (名誉) or job? No!In fac
35、t, without the classroom teacher to review the material, enlarge on it and answer questions that the students may bring up, such TV lessons would not be of very great value.The children who watch ETV do so with different results - from very good to fair. Possibly, the programs are too similar or too
36、 serious. Generally, they are not too long. Very likely, the children who benefit least are the slow learners. However, it is believed that there is a bright future for ETV inside and outside the classroom. The time may come ,when bigger and clearer screens will be used in the classroom, bigger and
37、better programs will be exchanged between countries and more foreign experts will be brought in, listened to and followed by newcomers in the ETV field.64. Which of the following suggests the programme is popular? A. it was shown every week. B. Even children enjoyed watching it. C. It was made by un
38、iversity professors. D. Worthwhile books were discussed in it.65. Which of the following is true about ETV according to the text? A. It requires a good command of modern technology. B. It can be valuable without classroom teachers. C. It can meet all the needs of both teachers and students. D. It is
39、 sure to help different students achieve good results.66. The underlined phrase to put across his subject probably means _ A. to explain his subject B. to learn his subject well C. to discuss his subject D. to know what he is talking about67. What would be the best title for the text? A. The Future
40、of ETV B. ETV-A New Way of Teaching C. The Excitement of ETV D. The Advantages and Disadvantages of ETV D At a three - hour hearing (意见听取会) on testing, Eva S. Moskowitz, chairwoman of the New York City Council s Eduuation Department, said she found it troubling that under the present system, a gener
41、al education student would be required to take 21 citywide and statewide tests from kindergarten through 12th grade. She found fault with the high price charged by the companies that make the tests. She also objected to teachers being out of the classroom for days at a time to grade the exams. But s
42、he seemed most dissatisfied with what she called the test scores slow return. She gave an example: Results for students in grades 3, 5, 6 and 7 who take the citywide English language arts exam in the spring at a cost of $1.2 million to the city will not be sent to schools until June, once the school
43、 year is over. Ms. Mei, the city s senior instructional manager for testing, said that schools use a number of tests, not just the citywide and statewide tests, to find out how students are getting on with their studies so that proper instructions can be offered. And she said the formal tests are va
44、luable in helping decide which students will be invited to summer school, and for instructional purposes in the next school year. Ms. Moskowitz pressed Ms. Mei on the quarterly diagnostic (诊断性的) tests. Those scores are not mailed home to parents, although Ms. Mei said they could be found out online.
45、 Ms. Moskowitz said she strongly believed parents should be able to know those scores without havingto use the Internet. In answer to this, Ms. Mei said that the results had been delivered to the schools in computerized form since October, and were there for any parent who asked. Toward the end of t
46、he hearing, to further support her central point, Ms. Moskowitz told .Ms. Mei, If were giving these tests without changing educational practices, were spitting in the wind.68. According to Ms Mei, formal tests are valuable because _ A. they can serve instructional purposes B. they are citywide and s
47、tatewide tests C. they arc made by special companies D. they can help students in summer school69. Which of the following is true about diagnostic tests? A. They are held on the Internet. B. They take place every three months. C. The scores are mailed home to parents. D. The results are delivered in
48、 printed form.70. What can be seen from the text? A. An advantage of the heating. B. A disadvantage of computers. C. An advantage of the educational system. D. A disadvantage of citywide and statewide tests.71. What would be the best title for the text? A. Fewer Tests Needed B. less Spent on Tests C
49、. Quicker Test Results Required D. Better Educational Systere Wanted E WASHINGTON Mar 2, 2005 - More people than ever are driving under the influence of their cell phones, according to a survey (调查) published Tuesday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The survey showed 8 percent
50、of drivers, or 1.2 million people, were using hand - held or handsfree cell phones during daylight hours last year, a 50 percent increase since 2002 and a 100 percent rise in four years. All that talking is a potential safety problem, said NItTSA spokesman Pale Tyson. While we don t have hard proof
51、that there s been an increase in the number of accidents, we know thattalking on the phone can affect driver performance, he said. The District of Columbia and New Hampshire no longer allow talking on hand - held cell phones while driving, according to the Governors Highway Safety Association. Some
52、communities, such as Brookline, Mass. and Santa Fe, require handsfree cell phones, but about a half- dozen states prevent local governments from limiting cell phone use in cars. Young drivers, between 16 and 24, increased their talking on cell phones by 60 percent between 2002 and 2004. The National
53、 Transportation Safety Board said it wants all 50 states to ban those with learner s permits from using cell phones or other wireless devices while driving. New Jersey andMaine are the only two that have passed such laws. The survey was carried out between June 7 and July 11, 2004, at 1,200 road sit
54、es across the country and, in some cases, done by telephone.72. Which of the following shows the right number of drivers who used cell phones while driving?73. The underlined word potential in Paragraph 3 probably means _ A. serious B. possible C. common D. obvious74. It can be inferred that_ A. the
55、re isnt hard proof that using cell phones while driving will cause more accidents B. some districts will no longer allow drivers to talk on handheld cell phones C. people hold different opinions as to whether cell phone use in cars should be limited D. only two states have passed laws to ban drivers
56、 using cell phones while driving75. The main purpose of this text is to _ A. encourage drivers to use handfree cell phones B. inform people about cell phone use while driving C. advise drivers to use cell phones carefullyD. warn people not to use cell phones in cars第II卷(共45分) 第四部分:写作(共三节,满分45分)第二节:短
