More Than One Way to the Square

We were standing at the top of a church tower. My father had 36 me to this spot in a small town not far from our home. I wondered 37 . \Father said. I gathered all my 38 and looked down. I saw the square in the centre of the village. And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of twisting, turning streets leading to the 39 . \is like that. If you can't get to the place where you want to go 40 one road, try another. \

Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had 41 my mother to do something about the awful school lunches. But she 42 because she could not believe the lunches were as 43 as I said.

When I turned to Father, he would not help. Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a 44 -the value of an open, searching mind. By the time we reached home. I had a 45 .

At school the next day, I 46 poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I talked the cook into serving it to Mother at dinner. Everything went on smoothly. She swallowed one 47 and spat it out. Quickly I told her what I had done, and Mother stated 48 that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!

In the years that followed I often remembered what Father taught me. I began to work as a fashion (时装) designer two years ago. I was busy getting ready to show my winter fashions. But just 13 days before the presentation the sewing girls all stopped working. I was as 49 as my models. \ Accept the failure? 50 use wisdom to find another road to my goal? Then a

Wikipedia: The Online Know-It-All

If you want to find out a piece of information about anything, the best place to search for it is Wikipedia. The name \is from the Hawaiian word wiki, meaning \This online encyclopedia (百科全书) is written by thousands of people around the world. Anyone with Internet access can write, add or make changes to Wikipedia articles if he or she finds it incorrect or not well written. In this way, people who know a lot about a certain subject can write about it even if they are not university

英语 第 5 页（共 12 页）

professors. But contributions cannot damage Wikipedia because many experienced editors are watching pages and techies (技术专家) can write editing programs to keep track of or correct bad edits. Where there are disagreements on how to present facts, editors work together to arrive at an article that fairly represents current expert opinion on the subject.

Wikipedia is quite different from paper-based reference sources in important ways. Unlike printed encyclopedias, it is continually created and updated, with articles on historic events appearing within minutes, rather than months or years.

What's more, Wikipedia includes articles written in about 285 languages. This fact makes it one of the few websites on the Internet that are truly international. It was started in 2001 by Larry Sanger and Jimmy Wales, as a free online English-language encyclopedia project. Since its creation, it has grown rapidly into one of the largest reference websites, attracting nearly 500 million unique visitors monthly. There are more than 77,000 active contributors working on more than 22,000,000 articles in different languages. As of today, there are 4,396,866 articles in English.

So, if you are looking for some information, why not try Wikipedia? It's free, multilingual, and informative.

56. According to the passage, what is Wikipedia? A. A free website encyclopedia. B. A computer game. C. A free encyclopedia in book form. D. An online university. 57. From the passage we know that _____. A. Wikipedia catches a wide audience

B. Wikipedia only charges users a small fee

C. incorrect editions might do great harm to Wikipedia D. it will take long to update the information on Wikipedia 58. Where can we probably read the passage? A. In a story book. B. In a research report. C. In a science magazine. D. In a travel brochure.

Sixteen-year-old Karlos Dearman's future is looking much brighter than he might previously have imagined. \with them, \

Karlos is learning to refurbish (翻新) old bicycles in the workshop (车间) of ReCycle Bikes, an independent non-profit bike project in Sheffield.

young people have so much potential, but often don't realize it.\

Founded in 2001, ReCycle Bikes repairs bicycles donated by the public, which are sold for ￡20 after refurbished. Abandoned bikes supplied by the government make sure a steady flow of bikes, but a recently formed partnership with Sheffield University should improve the further development.

Having set up ReCycle Bikes on his own, Pearce now has the staff and resources to track the profession development of those who have passed through his workshop. “But we are planning exit interviews with the young people to make sure what they plan to do. and these will allow us to check on their progress,” says Pearce.

Men are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity (名人) chefs like Cordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, according to a report from Oxford University.

The effect of the celebrity role models, who have given cooking a more manly picture, has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.

According to the research by Prof. Jonatahn Gershuny, who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford, men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking, up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961.

Prof. Gershuny said , “The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend. There has been 40 years of sexual equality, but there is another 40 years probably to come.”

Women, who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking, now spend just one hour and seven minutes-a great fall, but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.

Some experts have named these men in aprons as \( men using cooking skills to impress friends) \by the success of Ramsay, Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd.

“I was married in 1974. When my father came to visit me a few weeks later, I was wearing an apron when I opened the door. He laughed,\said Prof. Gershuny. \would never happen now.”

Two-thirds of adults say that they come together to share at least three times a week, even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table. Prof. Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a table-with many \by family members. \family meal has changed a lot, and few of us eat-as I did when I was a child-at least two meals a day together as a family. But it has survived in a different format. \

63. What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before? A. The improvement of cooks' status. B. The influence of popular female chefs. C. The change of female's view on cooking.

D. The development of sexual equality campaign.

64. What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking? A. Men spend more time cooking than women nowadays. B. Women spend much less time on cooking than before.

C. It will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women. D. There is a sharp decline in the time men spend on cooking compared with 1961.

65. How did Prof. Gershuny see the family meal according to the passage? A. It has become a thing of the past.

B. It is very different from what it used to be. C. It shouldn't be advocated in modern times. D. It is beneficial to the stability of the family. 66. Which is the best title for the passage? A. The Changes of Family Meals B. Equality between Men and Women C. Cooking into a New Trend for Men D. Cooking-a Thing of the Past for Women

Teaching is more than leadership. Some of the teacher's time and effort is directed toward instruction, some toward evaluation. But it is the teacher as a group leader who creates an effective organizational structure (结构) and good working environment so that instruction and evaluation activities can take place. A group that is totally disorganized, unclear about its goals, or constantly fighting among its members will not be a good learning group. The leadership pattern includes helping to form and maintain a positive learning environment so that instruction and evaluation activities can take place.

On the first day of class, the teacher faces a room filled with individuals (个体) . Perhaps a few closely united groups and friendships already exist. But there is no sense of group unity, no set of rules for conduct in the Group, no feeling of belonging. If teachers are successful leaders, they will help students develop a system of relationships that encourages working together.

Standards and rules must be set to keep order, make sure of justice and protect individual rights, but do not contradict school policy. What happens when one student hurts another's individual rights? Without clear regulations agreeable to the students and teachers, the classroom can become chaotic. Students may break rules they did not know existed. If standards are set without participation from the class, students may spend a great deal of creative energy in destroying the class environment or finding ways to break rules.

No matter how skillful the teacher is in uniting students and creating a positive

英语 第 9 页（共 12 页）

atmosphere, the task is never complete. Regular maintenance is necessary. Conflicts arise. The needs of individual members change. A new kind of learning task requires a new organizational structure. Sometimes outside pressures such as holidays, upcoming tests or sport competitions, or family troubles cause stress in the classroom. One task for the teacher is to recreate a positive environment by helping students deal with conflict, change, and stress.

67. The underlined word \ A. conserve B. build C. recreate D. evaluate 68. According to the author, the teacher should_______. A. free students from outside pressures B. set the standards and rules on his own C. be responsible for a well-organized class D. focus more on instruction and evaluation 69. From the passage we can learn that ______. A. rules cannot be changed once they're formed

B. outside pressures may not cause tension among students

C. if the teacher well unites his students, he then will finish his task

D. if rules are not acceptable both to students and teachers, the classroom can be a mess

70. What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage? A. To provide information for teaching.

B. To show the importance of teaching a class. C. To study the teacher's behavior in the classroom.

D. To compare the teacher's behavior with the students' in class.

Why Do We Forget Things?

When it comes to having perfect memories, it is apparent that we humans must have had some faults in our blueprints (蓝图) ! Why don't we remember everything that we want to remember? It makes us feel upset and get discouraged. 71 However, it's true that we are all forgetful.

72 These are stored in what we call our \before age three? Sigmund Freud, a doctor of Vienna, discovered the fact that we forget most of our early childhood. 73 They have different opinions. A very good theory, born from the results of experimentation with babies, is that absence of language ability at the time of an event stopped us from describing it to others.

74 Experts say that you can keep about seven things in your memory at once for up to three days. During that time, you may forget something in order to put something else in its place, or you put it into long-term memory. What goes into

short-term memory are things you've learned about recently, in the past day or two. 75 For example, you may have met your favourite star last week, and this week you can tell all the details to a friend. A simple example to explain your short-term memory is to look at a list of twenty words for a minute or two. You will discover that you cannot remember more than about seven of them and that they are the ones in the beginning and at the end of the list because your mind has judged them to be more important than those in the middle.

A. Scientists now know that it may take longer to remember things for the old. B. However. it is widely recognized that short-term memory can be improved. C. Sometimes, it even causes us to lose self-respect or others to think less of us.

D. Psychologists have been studying what causes this forgetfulness since Freud's time. E. Most of us have vivid memories of our lives from about age three to our present

ages.

F. Only if something really unusual happens does it stay in your short-term memory

for longer.

G. The other type of memory, the “short-term memory”, is what we are usually
