Part 3 Reading and Writing (第三部分读写)

VI. Reading comprehension(阅读理解):

Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案): (12分)

Students at Empire High School started class with no text books－but it wasn?t because of money problems.

Instead, the school gave iBooks－laptop computers to each of its 340 students, becoming one of the first US public schools to stop printed textbooks.

School officials believe that the electronic materials will make students enjoy learning more. Empire High School was designed to have a textbook-free environment.

Students at Empire High School get the materials over the school?s Internet network. The school has a central control system that limits what can be downloaded(下载) at the school.

“Students can hand in homework online. We have a web p rogram that helps to check if you copy from others,” the headmaster Baker said.

In addition to offering up-to-date information, teachers can make the lessons more enjoyable. For example, lessons in history can include links to a person?s daily life, his ideas, his discovery, and so on.

Social studies teacher Jeremy Gypton said the change was easier than expected. Gypton said he assigned reading based on websites, used online groups and message boards to keep the students connected. And he also asked them to comment（评论）on each other?s work.

Julian Tarazon, a new student, said that it was kind of hard at first, because you had to put things in folders(文件夹). But after a couple of days, you got used to it. Another student Morgan Northcutt said the computer system had made it easier to do homework.

The school isn?t completely paperless, however. It has a library, and students can read books in it.

“We?re not trying to get rid of books,” Baker said. “We love books.”

( )69. The students at Empire High School will study in class without ___________ this year.

text messages B) printed textbooks C) reading materials D) electric machines ( )70. The teachers at Empire High School began to use iBooks because

they___________.

had money problems B) had limited network

C) wanted to improve their teaching D) wanted a web program

( )71. A central control system can help to control __________.

how much to download B) what to download

C) how to download D) why to download

( )72. The underlined word “assigned” probably means “___________”.

A) 说明 B）完成 C) 转让 D）布置

( )73. The biggest advantage of the homework online is that___________.

students can do it anytime

information online is available

there is a lot of reading based on websites

it provides a platform for students to share ideas

( )74. The best title of the passage might be “___________”.

A) High School uses iBooks instead of textbooks

B) Don?t try to get rid of books

C) Learning without textbooks is harder

D) Doing homework online

B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文):（12分）

My best friend and I were in the shop that she owns. It was the middle of the afternoon. We were both very happy and making plans for the weekend. Suddenly a man entered the shop. We knew that he didn?t look like one of our usual customers, but we welcomed him ___75___ anyway. Without any hesitation he pulled something out of his coat. We didn?t notice that it was a ___76___ until he ordere d us to go into the back with him.

After he warned us that he could fire at any time, he looked for the money everywhere, in the bank, from our wallets, and then he asked for our jewellery (珠宝) and we gave him all he wanted. Finally, he finished his “job” and left.

When I was a child, I felt safe with my parents in my home or wherever I was not alone. Then I began to understand the news and I learnt that ___77___ things were happening “out there”, but I still kept thinking that those events were just other people?s

___78___, not mine. From the moment the man walked out of the shop, I completely

___79___. I always look around to see which kinds of people are possibly following me. Now I usually double-check everything: if I?ve locked myself in the car or in the house. I am always careful not to wear any jewellery. Whenever a stranger is getting too close or is trying to get information from me, I feel nervous. I know that it is wrong, and that not everyone is going to ___80___ me again.

After all, I consider myself lucky, since nothing really bad happened to me or my

friend, but since that day I haven?t felt safe any more. I hate that man not for having taken my jewellery and money, but for having deprived（剥夺）of my innocence.

( )75. A) sadly B) quietly C) angrily D) politely

( )76. A) gun B) note C) mistake D) knife

( )77. A) funny B) horrible C) pleasant D) serious

( )78. A) exchanges B) worries C) feelings D) fables

D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题): (12分)

The first time I saw Jim Wooten I really understood him. He was a great TV news reporter. When he was reporting in Rwanda, one heartbreaking moment made a deep impression on me. When the camera showed all of the children who were dying, suffered from terrible diseases, Jim ended his piece by saying that when he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms around his own children. Then I realized that he was different, that he didn?t fall into any of the modern television-news tricks, that he was not giving us any awful, artificial(假的) television-journalist reports out of（出于) pity.

Instead, I was watching a real reporter with a gift(天赋) for both words and slight differences.

Then I read his book, We Are All the Same, about his friendship with Xolani Nkosi, a South African boy who became the international spokesman for AIDS(艾滋病). It is about the friendship between Wooten and a black child who was ten years old and already dying of AIDS. It is also a book about a great teacher and his student. But the teacher－the one with real wisdom and understanding about life－is the little boy, not the journalist. And, finally, it?s about a love story of Gail Johnson, Nkosi?s white mother who does her best to save the boy, and their love for each other. When reading the book, I felt touched from time to time.

How did Jim Wooten feel when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?

__________________________________________________________________. What would an ordinary journalist do on TV when he saw these dying children?

_________________________________________________________________. How did Jim end his piece when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?

_________________________________________________________________.

Who is the teacher in the book, the little boy or the journalist?

_________________________________________________________________. Why did Nkosi?s mother do everything possible to save the boy?

_________________________________________________________________. What?s the writer?s attitude to Jim Wooten? How do you know that?
