Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted(有天赋的) enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they dont want to go to school any longer. They become dropouts.It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents serif their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students hair to their clothes and things in their school bags. Child psychologists(心理学家) now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents.1. “Dropouts” are those who _.A. make troubles in and out of schools B. go about or stay home instead of being at schoolC. try hard but always fails in the exams D. lose hope and give up some of their subjects2.

The Pressures on the Students in Japan （教育类）(2)【答案与解析】这是一篇关于日本学生所受到的沉重的压力的文章。家长的过高期望，日本学校严格的制度都使得一些学生丧失了上学的兴趣，甚至不懂得如何和他人相处。1. B。词义锖测题。根据 Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they dont want to go to school any longer(这样的学生觉得他们被所有认识的人讨厌，他们不想再去学校)可推知答案为 B。2. D。细节题。由第2段的最后一句我们知道：They only help the students to pass the exam，所以 teach students how to study well 是必要的，而第3段最后一句也说 no one taught them how to get on with others，即A、B、C皆是正确的，故选 D。3. D。主旨题。这是文章主旨题。由全文看来，每一段都脱离不了“学生所受到的压力”这个中心，所以“日本学生的压力”是最适合的标题。 （教育类） (3)If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important things to remember about reading rate: Knowing why you are reading or what you are reading to find out will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.

Since I believed that a long night was waiting for me ahead, I had no choice but to bring a TV into his room to kill off the hours until dawn. I was surprised that the moment I turned on the TV the baby became quiet right away and fixed his little eyes brightly on the screen. Not willing to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tiptoed out of the room, leaving him to watch the boring TV programs. I heard no more of the babys crying that night and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV by himself. I found there was a metaphor(暗喻) in my babys behavior(行为) for the new generation. When I gave my boy some books to go over, he only spit upon them; when I read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools with my students. I find that our students dont read and they look down upon reading and make light of those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have drawn a conclusion: “Let them watch it!” If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight against it? Let them watch what they want！ 1. Why did the father bring a TV set into his sons room? A. To enjoy some interesting programs together with his son. B. To help himself pass the long hours ahead of him. C. To help his son fall asleep sooner. D. To keep his son from making noises. 2. The baby seemed to be _ at the sight of the TV set.

Sir Francis Bacon said that almost four hundred years ago. But few people believed him until 1970. In that year a Canadian scientist George Kill proved the English professor was right. Dr Kill filled an open oil pail(桶) with cold water. He filled another with warm water. He put both in the same low temperature. The warm water froze first. The lack of covers on the pails is the secret. Some of the warm water changed into vapor. This meant that less of the warm water was left to be frozen. And so the warm water froze faster than the cold water even though it had a greater temperature drop to make.1. Hundreds of years ago, Sir Francis Bacon found _. A. the temperature of warm water drops faster than that of cold water B. warm water is heavier than cold waterC. warm water has the same temperature as cold water D. warm water is not as useful as cold water2.

Leave a pail with warm water and another pail with cold water in the same low temperature, youll find that _. A. cold water freezes first B. warm water turns into ice before cold water C. warm water and cold water freeze at the same time D. much of cold water is changed into air.4. Why does warm water freeze first in the same freezing weather? A. Because some of the warm water turns to vapor, the amount(数量) becomes less than that of cold water.B. Because warm water is lighter than cold water.C. Because the temperature of warm water is lower than that of cold water.D. Because cold water freezes with more difficulty than warm water.（科技类） (3)If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.1. The main reason for one is poor memory is that _. A. his father or mother may have a poor memory C. his memory is not often usedB. He does not use his name or legs for some time D. he cant read or write2. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _.

Dont learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.D. A good memory comes from more practice.4. Some people cant read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _. A. they have save much trouble B. they have saved much time to remember thingsC. they have to use their memories all the time D. they cant write everything in a little notebook5. Which is the best title for this passage? A. Dont Stop Using Your Arms Or Legs B. How To Have a Good MemoryC. Strong Arms And Good Memories D. Learn From the People（科技类） (4)When Johnson called again, the manager received him very politely. “That is a most remarkable oil you brought us, Mr Johnson,” he said. Johnson nodded his smooth, dark head. That was something he knew very well. “Ive never seen anything like it,” the manager admitted. Johnson nodded again. “No?” he said politely. Then he added, “But I think you will, sir. A very great deal of it.” He appeared to think for a moment. “I think you will find it will be on sale seven, perhaps, eight years from now.” He smiled. The manager thought that was uncertain. He said, “It is better than our fish oils. I admit that.” “So I am told, sir,” agreed Johnson. “Have you any plans to produce it yourself, Mr Johnson?” “Would I be showing it to you if I had?” Johnson smiled again.“We might add some chemicals to one of our own fish oils,” said the manager. “It would be expensive to do that, even if you could,” Johnson said gently. “Besides,” he added, “I am told that this oil will be much cheaper than your best fish oils. Cheaper than any vegetable oil, in fact.” “Perhaps,” said the manage. “Well, I suppose you want to make an arrangement, Mr Johnson. Shall we discuss it?” “Of course,” said Johnson. “There are two ways of dealing with a situation of this sort. The usual one is to prevent it altogether or at least to delay it as long as possible. That is, of course, the best way.” The manager nodded. He knew plenty about all that. “But I am so sorry for you, because, you see, that is not possible this time.” The manager had his doubts, but all he said was an inquiring(asking), “Oh?” “The other way,” continued Johnson, “is to produce yourself before the trouble starts.” 1.

Learning these skills changed your life forever and opened up new horizons. Learning about computers can be like learning how to ride a bike or drive a car. Once you have invested the time to master the skills, you will never go back to the old days. The new technology is simply too convenient and too powerful. Technological developments through the years have enabled us to do more with less effort. We have continuously looked for better ways of doing things. Each invention and new development has allowed us to extend our capabilities. Today we see one of the most dramatic
