I’ve always had strong opinions of how love should be expressed, but others had their own ways of showing care.

What I 36 most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we 37 ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to 38 his family as cold. When we got into the 39 to go home, his father suddenly appeared. 40 , he began to wash his son’s windscreen. I could feel he was a caring man through the glass.

I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often 41 me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant 42 or inquiry about my life, just financial instructions. This manner of his 43 me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his 44 morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I 45 him.

When my social sty le has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt 46 . For example, I always return phone calls 47 and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the 48 : She wasn’t a good friend! My anger 49 as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I 50 and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was 51 at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be 52 . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.

Far too often, I ignored their 53 expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my 54 . Over the years, however, I’ve learned to 55 other persons, love signs.

A

You might be thinking about entering healthcare as a second career but are having lots of doubts, primarily because you feel that the time and energy you invested in your profession might just go to

waste. On the contrary, many of the skills and strengths you need in healthcare, particularly in the nursing field, are strengths and skills that you most likely have developed already in your professional career, especially if you worked in a high-pressure office setting or any form of customer service.

In healthcare, you will be communicating face-to-face with people on a daily basis --- nurses, doctors, patients, family of patients, and so on. In fact, when you are working, you will probably be getting instructions from someone, relaying(转达) a message, soothing the worries of a patient, explaining circumstances, and so on. To have strong communication skills, you need to be able to speak clearly and listen carefully. It is important that the messages you deliver are accurate and brief, not only orally but also literally --- documentation is part of the job. In most professions, communication skills are also highly valued and developed. Writing memos, speaking and listening in meetings, and understanding nonverbal and verbal cues(暗示) are all helpful and transferable to a health career.

For professionals with a background in psychology, counseling, teaching, social work, public speaking, customer service, and any job that teaches empathy, they might find that they fit well in a nursing job or a job in healthcare. Having empathy is vital to becoming an effective nurse. Good nurses tend to be empathetic, sympathetic, understand different cultures, respect teamwork, and listen well.

For those who worked in customer service such as working as a salesperson, waitstaff, or receptionist, they will find that there are a lot of characteristics that they learned from the job and that they can transfer to working in healthcare. Servers or customer care representatives have to be organized, multitask, and provide satisfaction to customers. All these are things that nurses have to be and do as well.

56. Why do some people doubt while considering choosing healthcare as a second career?

A. They lack self-confidence in themselves.

B. They are afraid of losing their present jobs.

C. They are not sure of their future working as a nurse.

C. They think they have to start from scratch.

57. To be an effective nurse, one had better have the following qualities EXCEPT ______.

A. being good at communication

B. having service awareness

C. being able to understand how others feel

D. devoting oneself to nursing body and soul

58. Which of the following can be the best title?

A. A second career in healthcare

B. Possibilities of being a nurse

C. Transferable skills to use in healthcare

D. How to get a job with your previous

B

SALT LAKE CITY, March 1, 2010 --- Like silkworm moths(蚕蛾), butterflies and spiders, caddisfly larvae(石蛾幼虫) spin silk, but they do so underwater instead of on dry land. Now, University of Utah researchers have discovered why the fly’s silk is sticky when wet and how that may make it valuable as an adhesive tape(黏胶带) during an operation.

“Silk from caddisfly larvae may be useful some day as a medical adhesive for sticking wet tissues,” says Russell Stewart, an associate professor of bioengineering and principal author of a new study of the fly silk’s chemical an d structural properties.

“I picture it as sort of a wet Band-Aid, maybe used inside in operations --- like using a piece of tape to close a cut,” he adds. “Gluing things together underwater is not easy. Have you ever tried to put a Band-Aid on in the shower? This insect has been doing this for 150 million to 200 million years.”

There are thousands of caddisfly species worldwide. Some species spend their larval stages developing underwater, and build an inch-long, tube-shaped case or shelter around themselves using sticky silk and grains of rock or sand. Other species use silk, small sticks and pieces of leaves. Each larva has a head and four legs that stick out from the tube. The larval case gets wider as the larva grows. A caddisfly larva eventually pupates(化蛹) as it develops into an adult fly and then hatches.

Caddisflies now live around the world in waters ranging from fast streams to quiet low-lying wet land. The caddisflies’ adaptation to diverse habitats is largely due to the inventive use by their larva of underwater silk to build complex structures for protection and food gathering.

Caddisflies fall into two groups. Some build their case and then drag it along with them underwater as they search for food. Some build a shelter glued to a rock, with a silk net to catch passing food.

59. According to Russell Stewart, caddisfly larvae ______.

A. can spin silk underwater or on dry land

B. are worth researching

C. are quite different from butterflies and spiders

D. have been widely used in the medical field

60. The author mentions “Band-Aid” in the passage to show ______.

A. Band-Aids are very useful

B. Band-Aids can’t be used in operations

C. it’s not easy for caddisfly larvae to live underwater

D. silk from caddisfly larvae has an advantage over Band-Aids

61. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph probably refers to ______.

A. the silk

B. the shelter

C. the food

D. the rock

62. The passage is most probably a ______.

A. science fiction novel

B. science news report

C. biography of researchers

D. social affairs report

C

The Rolls Royce logo consisting of the two Rs clearly stands for Rolls and

Royce, the two founders of this car manufacturing company.

In 1884 Frederick Henry Royce started an electrical and mechanical

business. He made hi s first car, a “Royce”, in his Manchester factory in 1904. He was introduced to Charles Steward Rolls in a Manchester hotel on May 4 that year, and the pair agreed a deal where Royce would manufacture cars, to be sold by Rolls.

A clause(条款) was added to the contract, saying the cars would be called

“Rolls Royce”.

The current Toyota logo consists of three ovals: the two perpendicular(成直角的) ovals

represent a relationship of trust between the customer and Toyota. These ovals combine to

symb olize the letter “T” for Toyota. The space in the background implies a global expansion of Toyota’s technology and unlimited potential for the future.

The Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) is a South Korean company manufacturing automobiles. Their automobiles are available in many countries around the globe. In 2003

it was South Korea’s largest car maker and the world’s seventh largest car maker. The Hyundai logo appears to be an H (symbolizing Hyundai). The oval shape indicates the company’s global expansion and the “H” is symbolic of two people (specifically the company and customer) shaking hands.

The Mercedes-Benz logo represents one of the most famous brands in the world. The

Benz logo is a three-pointed star that represents its domination of the land, the sea, and the

air. The famous three-pointed star was designed by Gottlieb Daimler to show the ability of

his motor for land, air and sea usage. It was first seen on a Daimler in 1909 and was combined with the Benz laurel wreath(桂冠) in 1926 to symbolize the union of the two

firms. Mercedes-Benz is one of the world’s oldest automobile manufacturers.

63. Which company’s logo is a symbol of two people shaking hands?

A. Rolls Royce’s.

B. Toyota’s.

C. Hyundai’s.

D. Mercedes-Benz’s

64. According to the text, ______.

A. Rolls Royce was founded in 1884

B. Toyota is having difficulty expanding its technology

C. Hyundai has the same long history as Mercedes-Benz

D. Mercedes-Benz originally produced motors

65. Which company’s logo stands for both the manufacturer and the seller?

A. Rolls Royce’s.

B. Toyota’s.

C. Hyundai’s.

D. Mercedes-Benz’s.

66. We can learn from the text that ______.

A. the ovals in the logos have the same meaning

B. Hyundai is South Korea’s seventh largest car maker

C. the three-pointed star of the Mercedes-Benz logo was first seen in 1926

D. the Mercedes-Benz logo is a symbol of the combination of two companies

Little Robby, our neighbour’s nephew, carefully drew some water into a bowl and started for the door. How I hated this water rationing(定量供应). We were forced to bathe in the deep little pond we shared with Jessie, our cow. Wells were dry, and crops transformed to dust.

I watched Robby sitting down onto the steps to my house. Bees buzzed circling his hair, and he buzzed with them. I remembe red his aunt’s words: I don’t know what I was thinking when I took him in. The crash killed my sister, and he wasn’t hurt, but he can’t talk. He’s in a world of all his own.

Why couldn’t she see the wonderful gifts this boy possessed? He was blessed with a loving nature and a deep admiration for all living things, and I knew he could talk to animals. My heart ached for Robby, who was to stay with us for the summer, and had already been the dearest part of our world, eagerly tending the garden with me and my husband, Tom.

On a string around Robby’s neck hung a whistle, in case he was ever lost or in danger. After all, he could not call out for help. But he knew perfectly well that the whistle was not a toy. Blowing on it would bring us both running. I had told him the story of the boy who cried wolf, and I knew he understood me.

I sighed as I cleared up the last supper dish. Every ounce of recycled water was saved for a tiny vegetable garden Robby had planted. Tom turned to me. “You know, honey, I’ve been thi nking about...”

Before he could continue, a scream from the yard made us jump. My God! It’s Robby’s whistle! When we reached him, he was pointing excitedly to the sky. Looking up, we saw the most magnificent sight: Rain Clouds! “Robby! Quick! We need all the pots and pans!”

Robby raced with me to the house. A drop of water fell on my pot and then another. Soon the yard was enveloped in soaking, glorious rain. We all stood with faces held upward to feel the comfort of it. Tom picked up Robby and danced abou t the pots, shouting and whooping, “Rain for Robby!” Tom swung about to show me Robby’s face: he was laughing right out loud, “W-W-Wobby’s!” “Wobby’s … wain … Mom,” giggling, and stretching out one tiny hand in the shape of a cup to catch the rain.

I hugged them both, tears of joy mixing with the rain.

67. The underlined phrase “the wonderful gifts” in the 3rd paragraph refers to Robby’s ______.

A. love for nature and all living things

B. kindness to help others around

C. independence since his childhood

D. readiness to accept what happened to him

68. It was because ______ that the author and her husband would run on hearing the whistle.

A. it was going to rain

B. Robby often surprised us with his whistle

C. something bad might happen to Robby.

D. Robby might find something special

69. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Robby was old enough, but still couldn’t speak.

B. Robby didn’t accept the author and Tom as his parents.

C. Robby happened to find the rain cloud and was terrified.

D. Robby’s aunt regretted bringing Robby home.

70. It can be concluded from the passage that ______.

A. we should show mercy for the disabled children

B. every child has his own talent however young he is

C. children from poor families take responsibilities earlier

D. ch ildren’s sensitive hearts are worthy to be taken care of

Guiding students through open-ended discussions can help students develop their understanding of the nature of science.

One useful practice in classroom discussions involves developing a discussion map. A discussion map is a graphic timeline created by the teacher on which a discussion is recorded --- who initially states the idea and who adds to or refuses the idea.

Discussion maps let teachers gain a deep understanding of students’ level of participation, the

origins of ideas, and the claims that seem meaningful, useful, and/or reasonable to students. They also give the teacher an idea of students’ science thoughts of phenomena and ideas.

To make a discussion map, the teacher needs to do a couple of things. First, the teacher needs to keep informed of the ideas that are shared and who shared the idea. The teacher does this as the children talk, making quick notes of the ideas and thoughts. It can be helpful to record the discussion, but it isn’t required. Then, after the discussion is over, the teacher reflectively creates the discussion map to clarify the understanding of the ideas and connections that students were making in their talk.

Educators have identified discussions as consistent with reform recommendations in that they help children learn about the nature science and are useful in combining literacy and science. It is suggested that discussions can be useful for teachers in evaluating students’ ideas and building e xcitement as science. Discussions offer windows on students’ thinking, provide students who struggle in reading and writing with a chance to participate more actively in class, and create situations where students can express their ideas differently than in traditional schools tasks.

However, I suggest that there are additional reasons for having reasoned discussions in classrooms. First, discussions like this allow students to use their own vocabulary --- the words and terms that make sense to them and their classmates --- to drive the intellectual and academic work of understand phenomena. Many times learning science can become focused on learning terms but not necessarily understanding and explaining phenomena. Second, discussions allow students to think about their experiences and the things that they know and try to reconcile these with science ideas. This is challenging, but working together with classmates can help. Finally, reasoned discussions are fundamentally scientific because they offer an open forum that allows all students to be heard, and students’ ideas can be evaluated and connected to their experiences with scientific explanations of those phenomena. For example, during the children’s reasoned discussion about plants, the group came to the agreement that seeds grow into plants. The students understood that most seeds get buried in the ground, the seeds get wet, and then plants grow. This led to a question about whether the seed was still in the ground when the plant had grown into an adult plant. The students came up with several ideas about where the seeds were. During this conversation, the teacher took careful notes so that later investigations could respond to the questions that children were asking. Thus the students were working together using their ideas and understandings and realized something as a group that they didn’t understand as individuals.

Discussion maps make sense!
