23、 A professor in music and music education at the University of NSW, Robert Walker, argues that all students should study the works of Western classical composers such as Haydn and Tchaikovsky. Professor Walker says students are missing out on an important part of the culture heritage （遗产）because the

24、y fail to study classical music, as the little music that children learn at school is mainly pop. The lack （缺乏）of music teaching is serious, especially in government schools where there are not enough specialist （专业的） music teachers. A national review in 2005 made 15 suggestions, but Professor Walke

25、r said it still failed to deal with the lack of classical music taught in schools. Im not against pop music, but its very simple, and not difficult either to play or to sing, Professor Walker says. But classical music is challenging and although it is part of Australias culture heritage, most childr

26、en learn it only through Hollywood films. At least children ought to know whats happening in Western culture. Its part of culture heritage, he says. Asian students know more about Western classical music than most children in the West. Professor Walker has taught music and music teachers in Britain,

27、 Canada and Australia and is a former chief （首席的）examiner for the International Baccalaureate and a former chairman of the research committee of the International Society for Music Education. Professor Walker says no school curriculum （课程）in Australia lists a piece of music that children should stud

28、y , such as the Mendelssohns. This lack of standard texts means that some children can be brought up totally on Western classical music, others on Elvis Presley, or on any music the teacher wants to teach.

34、acher among the students. For students，she was like a mother. They called her Little Mother.”One day，when she was talking with her students in the dormitory. It looked as if something heavy would fall off. It was dangerous. At that time，without any hesitation（犹豫），she pushed two students away，but she

35、 was hit heavily. However，she continued working with great pain later. One of her officemates（同事）said，“Ou Pingqin was not only a teacher but also a mother to her students in her class. She cared about their studies and even their life. She was very strict in her work.”A students parent said，She was

36、very warm-hearted. My son lost his father who supported the family. Every month，the teacher gave him：00 yuan to buy books from her own income.

39、orld Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. Its aim is to encourage people to use communication rather than force to settle conflicts(解决争端)。 The philosophy (

40、理念) behind it is: Say “Hello” and stop war.It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simple saying “Hello” wont bring about world peace. Still, the simple act of saying “hello ”to someone can truly make a lot of difference. You raise your head to someone as you pass by , say “Hello.It is

41、such a casual (不经意的)thing and requires so little effort, but you might even make his day.Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Some people are lonely because theyre shy. That leads to them feeling cut off.they find it difficult to communicate wit

42、h people, even though they want to. They may secretly smile in their hearts after they hear your greetings. Its a good idea, not just on Nov.21, but every day, to remember to say “hello”to as many people as we can. No one said it better than the French writer Joseph Joubert: “Politeness is the flowe

43、r of humanity(人性). A “Hello” to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.1World hello day was created by _AIsrael BEgypt CFrance DUnited Natons.2What does“it” in paragrahp 2 refer to?ATo say “hello” Bto pass byCto raise you

An adult dodo could gro

46、w to a height of about a meter and weigh between 45-50 pounds. The natural habitat of this kind of bird lay in the forest of Mauritius.Seed(种子) and fruits that were found in the forest were the main food of the dodo birds. As they could easily get the food they required in the forest, they didnt nee

47、d to fly. As time went by, they finally lost the ability to fly. It turned out to be a major disadvantage for dodos, as they were left with no ability to protect themselves against human beings attacks in their natural habitat, which drove this kind of bird to extinction(灭绝).The extinction of the do

48、do started in 1505, when Portuguese sailors set their foot on the Island of Mauritius. Before this, the dodo didnt face any danger. People began to hunt them. It was not long before animals, like cats, pigs and monkeys, were also introduced to the island by humans. When ships arrived, the rats on th

49、ese ships came onto the land. Though these animals were not able to attack huge dodos, it was easy for them to attack dodos nests on the ground. These animals continued to feed on dodo eggs.The dodo became a relatively(相对地) rare bird in Mauritius at the beginning of the 17thcentury, and became extin

50、ct in the end. The last reported sighting of a dodo was in 1681.1Why did the dodo lose its ability to fly?ABecause it liked walking on the ground.BBecause it had no enemies in the forest.CBecause it was too big to fly.DBecause it didnt need to fly to look for food.2What can we learn from the last tw

51、o paragraphs?AHumans hunted for dodos for money .BDodos nesting places were attacked by human beings.CThe dodo became extinct because of human activity.DOther animals on the island lived mainly on dodos meat.3What does the passage mainly talk about?AThe extinction of the dodo.BThe appearance of the

52、dodo.CThe actions taken to protect the dodo.DThe punishment for hunting the dodoF18、(C)The earth is not only, but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you. because nearly 70% of the earths surface（表面）is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only u

53、se the other 3%the fresh water from rivers, lakes, and other sources. And we cant even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers（冰川）. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.However, as things stand today, the fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for wa

54、ter is becoming larger and larger quicklyalmost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world-wide water shortage later on.We all have to learn how to stop wasting ourvaluablewater, one of the first step is to develop ways of reusin

55、g it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道), from there it returns to sea or runs into underground (地下)places.But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All wed have to do to make use of sea water in the wor
