ortheiGeneration.C、Itwilladaptitssystemtotheneedofthenewgeneration.D、TherewillbemoreonlinecoursesforiGeneration’sneed.标准答案：C知识点解析：主旨题。根据关键词“educationalsystem”定位于最后一段第一句，“Becausethesekidsaremoreimmersedandatyoungerages，theeducationalsystemhastochangesignificantly．”因为新一代沉浸于科技之中，那么教育制度也要随之改变。所以，选项C，教育制度要适应新一代的需求，是正确答案。选项A，新一代来改进教育制度；选项B，投入更多的科技来照顾新一代；选项D，将有更多的网上课程来应对他们的需要，均与原文大意有出入。Thefirsttimeyourbosssuggeststhatyouformallypresentsomethingtoyourdepartmentoraclient,yourreactionmaybepanic.Butrememberthatbeingaskedtopresentisacompliment.Someonebelievesthatyouhavevaluableinformationtosharewiththegroup,andwantstolistentoyourideas.Youneedtodecideexactlywhatyouwillsayduringtheallottedtime.Condenseyourtopicintoonesentence.Whatdoyouwantyouraudiencetorememberorlearnfromyourtalk?Thisisyour"bigidea".Remembermatyouraredealingwiththeshortattentionspansofindividualswhotendtohavemanythingsontheirminds.Thinkofthreemainpointsyouwanttomaketosupportyouroveralltopic.Developastorytodemonstrateeachofthoseconcepts.Thiscouldbesomethingthathappenedtoyouorsomeoneyouknow,orsomethingyoureadinanewspaperormagazine.Wehaveallheardthesaying"Apictureisworthathousandwords."Thinkabouthowyourpresentationcanbemoreinterestingtowatch.Propsareawonderfulwaytomakeyourtalkcomealive.Youcoulddosomethingassimpleasholdingupatoyphonereceiverwhentalkingaboutcustomerserviceorputtingonahattosignaladifferentpartofyourtalk.Thinkofdynamicandunusualwaytostartyourpresentation.Thismightinvolvetellinganecdotesthatrelatetoyourtopic.Neverbeginwith,"Thankyouforinvitingmeheretotalkwithyoutoday."Youwillputyouraudiencetosleeprightaway.Startoffenthusiasticallysotheywilllistenwithcuriosityandinterest.Afteryourenergeticintroduction,identifyyourselfbrieflyandthanktheaudiencefortakingthetimetolistentoyou.Planyourending,andfinishinamemorableway.Yourlistenersrememberbestwhattheyhearatthebeginningandendofaspeech,soconcludewithagameinwhichtheycanparticipate,ortellahumorousstoryandyouraudiencewillleavelaughing.Don'ttrytomemoriesyourtalkorreaditword-for-word.Itwillsoundstiltedandboring.Instead,practiceyourdynamicintroductionandconclusionuntilyoucandeliverthemeffortlessly.Ifyoudothisyou'llfeelaburstofconfidencethatwillhelpyousailthroughthewholeofthespeech.6、Theauthorofthetextregardsbeingaskedtodoapresentationas______.A、apraiseB、anopportunityC、apunishmentD、anexperiment标准答案：A知识点解析：细节题。原文第一段，“Butrememberthatbeingaskedtopresentisacompli—ment．”意思是．记住被要求发言展示是一种称赞。选项A，praise与compliment是近义替换。选项B，机会；选项C，惩罚；选项D，实验，均与原文信息有出入。故选A。7、Accordingtothepassage,whywe’dbettertosimplifyoursentencesduringapresentation?A、Becauselongersentencesarecomplextounderstand.B、Becauseaudienceareunlikelytoconcentrateforalongtime.C、Becausethereislimitedtimeforapresentation.D、Becausewehavetosharevaluableinformationwithaudience.标准答案：B知识点解析：细节题。题干问，在发言展示中，我们需要简化句子的原因。定位于原文第二段，首先作者建议将主题浓缩成一句话。随后该段最后一句给出原因，“Rememberthatyouaredealingwiththeshortattentionspansofindividualswhotendtohavemanythingsontheirminds．”记住你将要应对每个人短期的注意力集中时间，会有很多事情在听众的脑海里出现。所以，选项B，听众很难集中很长时间的注意力．是原文的近义转述。因此，正确答案是B。8、Whytheauthormentionedtheexampleofatoyphoneandahatinparagraph4?A、Topromotetheseproducts.B、Toariseyourboss’sinterest.C、Toprovideaneffectivewaytomakeapresentationvivid.D、Tostirupaudience’simagination.标准答案：C知识点解析：推断题。目的推断题。题干问，文章第四段引出玩具听筒和帽子这一例子的原因。第四段开头便指出，一张图片胜过千言万语。“Thinkabouthowyourpresentationcanbemoreinterestingtowatch．Propsareawonderfulwaytomakeyourtalkcomelive．”可知．作者认为道具是让发言变得有趣生动的一个非常好的方式。随后就列举了听筒和帽子的例子。所以，选项C，提供了一个有效的方式让发言变得生动．是正确答案。9、Whatisthesimilarcriterionforanopeningandaconclusionofonegoodpresentation?A、Bothofthemaredynamicandimpressive.B、Toariseaudienceinterest.C、Theyhavetobeformal.D、Tobefunnyanduseful.标准答案：A知识点解析：细节题。题干问，一个好的发言展示，其开头和结尾的标准有什么相似之处。文章第五段主要讲述开头，“Thinkofadynamicandunusualwaytostartyourpresentation．”第六段讲结尾的表达方式，“Planyourending，andfinishinamemorableway．”最后一段第三句，“practiceyourdynamicintroductionandconclusion…”可看出，选项A，有活力且令人印象深刻的，最能全面概括两者的相似处。选项B，主要用于开头；选项C，文中未提及；选项D，有用的，文中也未涉及。故选A。10、Whichoneofthefollowingisthemostappropriatetitleforthispassage?A、MoreDynamic,MoreEffectiveB、HowtoPrepareforaPresentationC、PresentationisaStep-stonetoYourCareerD、TheNecessityofBeingHumorous标准答案：B知识点解析：主旨题。题干问这篇文章最合适的题目。第一段，作者引入发言展示这一话题．第二段给出建议．精简话题，第三至六段从开头、结尾等方面一一阐述并给出具体建议，最后一段提出建议，要反复练习。可看出通篇文章，作者讲述如何准备好发言展示。所以，选项B是正确答案。Droppingoutofuniversitytolaunchastart-upisoldhat.ThetwistwithJosephCohen,DanGetelmanandJimGrandpreisthattheirstart-upaimstoimprovehowuniversitieswork.InMay2011thethreefoundersquittheUniversityofPennsylvaniatolaunchCoursekit,soonrenamedasLore,whichhasalreadyraised$6mtodevelopwhatMr.Cohen,its21-year-oldchiefexecutive,describesasasocial-learningnetworkfortheclassroom.LoreispartofatrendthatbuildsonthefamiliaritywithsocialnetworkingthathascomewiththesuccessofFacebook.Itcustomizestherulesofanetworktomeetthespecificneedsofstudents.AnyoneteachingaclasswouldreasonablyworrythatstudentsusingFacebookweregossipingratherthanlearningusefulinformationfromtheirnetworkoffriends.Loreallowsteacherstocontrolexactlywhoisinthenetworkbyissuingaclass-me

应。10、【C10】标准答案：J知识点解析：空格作句子的表语，可为名词、形容词或分词。根据空格后的“难以复制”可知，这些关系很珍贵，rare“罕见的；珍奇的”符合语义。二、长篇阅读(本题共10题，每题1.0分，共10分。)CanMixofTeachers,ComputersLeadtoPupilSuccess?[A]WhenvisitorstotheCarpeDiemcharterschoolsee175studentswearingheadphonesandstaringintocomputerscreensfromsmallcubicles,principalMarkFornerisreadyforaskepticalreaction."Ourcriticssayitlookslikeatelemarketingcallcenter,"hesaid,pre-emptively(先发制人地)."Itellpeopleitremindsmeofauniversitylibrary."[B]Thetightlyarrangedcubedseatinginalarge,openroomisn'ttheonlywayCarpeDiemdoesn'tlooklikeatraditionalschool.There'salsothisfact—thereareonlyfiveteachersfor175students.That'sa35-1student-to-teacherratio,alittleoutoflineforwhatmanymiddleandhighschoolsoffer.Eventually,thefiveteachers—withtheassistanceofaides—willbeexpectedtoeducate300studentsastheschoolgrows,creatinga60-1ratiomorecommoninThirdWorldcountries.[C]That'sbecauseCarpeDiemoffersa"blendedlearning"curriculum.It'sacutting-edgeandcontroversialconceptthatdeliversabigchunkofinstructiontostudentsviacomputeratschoolandoccasionallyathomeandmixesitwithperiodicsmallgroupdiscussionsandone-on-oneinstruction.[D]CarpeDiem,whichservesgrades6to12witha13-memberstaff,broughtblendedlearningtoIndianapolisforthefirsttimelastyear.ThreemoreblendedlearningcharterschoolsrecentlyopenedinIndianapolis—PhalenLeadershipAcademy,NexusAcademyandEnlaceAcademy—buttheconceptisonlystartingtorampup.Morethanadozenblendedlearningschoolsareplannedtoopenhereoverthenextfiveyears.[E]"Ourintuitionisthatitdoeswork,"saidEarlMartinPhalen,founderofthePhalenAcademycharterschool."Ifyouwatchatwo-year-oldgrabaniPadandflipthroughit,youseeourkidsareprettyadeptwithtechnology.Wecertainlyunderstanditcanbealearningtool."[F]Electronicinstructionishardlynew—online-onlyschoolshavebeenaroundformorethanadecade.Butblendedschoolsclaimtohavedevelopedahybridtheysayismoreeffectiveformanykids.Itallowsstudentstoworkattheirownpacetoconquerconceptstheycanhandleandconsultateacherortheirpeerswhentheyneedextrahelp.Learningmodelorprofitmachine?[G]Criticsofblendedlearning,however,lumpthisconceptinwithotheronlineschoolsandsaytheyhaveconcernsaboutthequalityofthelearningexperienceandthetruemotivationsofthepurveyors(承办商)ofelectronicinstruction.Somewonderiftheycaremoreaboutlearningorprofits.Afterall,itcanbefarcheapertoteachastudentwithacomputerinacubiclethanwithanactualpersonstandinginfrontoftheclassroom.That,inturn,canfreeupdollarsthatcanbepaidoutinprofitthatcangotoschooloperatorsandthetestingcompaniesthatmakeseveralofthehot-sellingsoftwareprogramstheybuy.[H]Lastyear,theconsultingfirmTheParthenonGroupdidastudythataimedtoestimatethecostofblendedlearninginstructioncomparedwithatraditionalclassroommodel.Itfoundthedifferencecouldbeasmuchas$2,400perstudentbelowwhattraditionalpublicschoolsspendoninstruction.That'salmost25%lessthanwhatthetypicaltraditionalpublicschoolspends,thestudysaid.[I]Phalen,whosecharterschoolopenedinIndianapolisthisyear,acknowledgedthattherearethosewhouseonlinetoolstocutcosts.Buthesaidhisschoolsandotherslikethemaretryingtodowhateverybusinessaimstodo—findwaystodeliverservicesthatarecheaperandbetteratthesametime.PhalenAcademyisnotentirelyablendedlearningschoolbutusessomeblendedlearningtechniquesinitsclasses.[J]RickOgston,whofoundedCarpeDieminArizona,saidcost-cuttingwasthelastthingonhismindwhenhebeganexperimentingwithblendedlearningathisfirstschool.Hismotivation,hesaid,wastofindawaytotailorinstructiontothepoint
