Most worthwhile careers

occupation ( 职业 ) should be

themselves for that matter, they choose their life work on a hit-or-miss basis.
Some 31 from job to job. Others 32 to work in
which they are unhappy and for which they are not fitted.
One common mistake is
choosing an occupation for 33 real or imagined prestige(声望) . Too many high-school students—or their parents for them—choose the
professional field, 34 both the relatively small proportion of
workers in the professions and the extremely high educational and personal 35 .The imagined or real prestige of

Nervous uncertainty surrounds the fate(命运) of US journalist Daniel Pearl, with
no clear communication from his kidnappers (绑匪) and no sign of his where abouts after three separate police
searches for his body in the troublesome port city Karachi, Pakistan.
Pearl, a 38-year-old Wall Street
Journal reporter, disappeared two weeks ago on his way to an interview in
Karachi. An email allegedly from his kidnappers contained four photos of him
and a variety of demands, including one for the release of Pakistani prisoners
being held at the US naval base in Cuba.
The searches were started last Friday night by an email claiming
that Pearl had been killed and his body thrown“in the graveyards of Karachi.”
Pearl has worked for The Wall Street journal for 12 years and is
now their South Asia bureau chief. He was born in Princeton, New Jersey and
graduated from Stanford University with a bachelors degree in communications.
He joined The Wall Street Journal
in November 1990, first as a reporter in the Atlanta bureau. In 1993 he moved
to the Washington office to cover transportation before beginning a series of
overseas postings.
The members of a radical(激进的) Islamic group in Pakistan who admit having kidnapped him say
Pearl is a member of the Israeli intelligence service, Mossad. But Pearls
employers have angrily denied that he is the agent of any government.
Pearls French wife, Marianne, is six months pregnant with their
first child.For the past few weeks the couple have been living in Karachi while
Pearl tried to arrange an interview with Mubarak Ali Shah Gilani, head of the
small miclitant Islamic group Tanzeem ul-Fuqra.
41. We

A.Pearl
has been murdered B.Pearl

C.on January 4,2002 D.
on January 11,2002
43. Pearls
disappearance has something to do with ________.

Student participation in the classroom is not only accepted but
also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the
final grade on the students oral participation. Although there are formal
lectures during which the student has a passive role(i.e., listening and taking
notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student
questions, and informal lectures. In graduate discussions the professor had a
“manager” role and the students make presentations and lead discussions. The
students do the actual teaching in these discussions.
A professors teaching method is another factor that determines
the degree and type of student participation. Some professors prefer to control
discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it. Many
professors encourage students to question their ideas. Students who object to
the professors point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.
In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode
of instruction is generally traditional, with teachers presenting formal
lectures and students taking notes. However, new educational trends have turned
up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years. Students in
edcuation, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to
solve problems in groups, design projects, make pressentations, and examine
case studies. Since some college or university courses are“practical” rather
than theoretical, they pay more attention to “doing”for themselves.
44. “Participation
in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student” in many
courses except in _______.
A.science
and mathematics B.the
humanities and social sciences
C.informal
lecture courses D.discussion
courses
45. From
the passage we know that education in the humanities and society_______.
A.has
not changed much
B.pay
attention to students studying instead of teachers teaching
C.is
much more important than that of science and mathematics
D.has
become more practical than theoretical
46. The reason
why some professors ask students to make presentations and lead discussions is
that______ .
A.these
professors are often not well prepared before class
B.these
professors want to strees“doing”
C.these
professors want to test the students abilities
D.these
professors are not willing to teach theory
47. Which
of the following sentences is true according to the passage?
A.Student
participation is not common in the classroom in many courses like society.
B.Some
professors want to control the classroom discussion.
C.Some
professors usually want the students to take part in the teaching of science
and mathematics.
D.New
educational trends have turned up in teaching of natural sciences such as
chemistry.
C
Scientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for
the difference between boys and girls.
However, none were believable enough to explain the general
picture. As one scientist points out,“There are slight genetic differences
between the sexes at birth which may affect the subjects boys and girls choose.
But the difficulty is that by the time children reach school age, there are so
many other effects that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse
at science and maths, or whether theyve been brought up to think of these
subjects as boys‘ territory’”.
Statistics(统计数据) show that in mathematics, at least, girls are equal to boys. A
recent report suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics becuase of
social attitudes. One of the reports authors says,“While it is socially
unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write, it is still
acceptable for women to say that they are ‘hope-less’at maths. Our research
shows that, although girls get marks which are as good as the boys, they have
not been encouraged to do so.”
The explanation for the difference, which is very clear during the
teenage years, goes as far back as early childhood experiences. From their
first days in nursery school, girls are not encouraged to work on their own or
to complete tasks, although boys are. For example, boys and not girls, are
often asked to ‘help’ with repair work. This encouragement leads to a way of
learning how to solve problems later on in life. Evidence(证据) shows that exceptional mathematicians
and scientists did not have teachers who supplied answers; they had to find out
for themselves.
A further report on maths teaching shows that teachers seem to
give more attention to boys than to girls.
Most teachers who took part in the study admitted that they expect
their male students to do better at mathematics and science subjects than their
female students. All of this tends to encourage boys to work harder in these
subjects, gives them confidence and makes them believe that they can succeed.
Interestingly, both boys and girls tend to regard such
‘male’subjects like mathematics and science as difficult. Yet it has been
suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses, not because they are difficult,
but for social reasons.
Mathematics and science are mainly male subjects, and therefore,
as girls become teenagers, they are less likely to take them up. Girls do not
seem to want to be in open competition with boys. Neither do they want to do
better than boys because they are afraid to appear less female and so, less
attractive.
48. The
underlined word“territory” in the second paragraph most probably means
“______”.
A.interest
B.area
of land C.special
field D.district
49. According
to scientific studies,________ .
A.maths
is not fit for girls to learn
B.boys
have a special sense of maths
C.girls
are poorer at maths because they are the weaker sex
D.girls
can learn maths as well as boys if given enough encouragement
50. Those
who made extraordinary contribution in mathematics and science_______.
A.usually
had good teachers to help them
B.had
the abilities to solve problems by themselves
C.usually
worked harder than others
D.were
encouraged to repair things when young
51. Which
of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A.It
seems socially acceptable for a girl not to be able to read and write.
B.It
is a social problem rather than a problem of brains that girls are poor at
maths
C.Mathematics
and science are no easy subjects to either girls or boys
D.There
is no connection between a girls ability in maths and her appearance.
52. What
would be the best title for the text?
A.Whos
Afraind of Maths Anyway?
B.Are
Boys Cleverer than Girls?
C.Boys
Are Better at Maths than Girls by Birth
D.Maths-A
Difficult Subject
D
The next time you try for a high-ranking post, you could let your
possible boss listen to a recommending phone call“made ”by US President George
W. Bush or British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Of course, neither of them could really do that for you-you would
just“borrow” their voices.
AT&T labs will start selling speech software that it says is
so good at reproducing the sounds of a human voice that it can recreate voices
and even bring the voices of long-dead famous people back to life.
The software, which turns printed text into speech, makes it
possible for a company to use recordings of a persons voice to say things that
the person never actually said.
Possible customers for the software, which is priced in the
thousands of dollars, include telephone call centres, companies that make
software that reads digital files aloud, and makers of automated voice devices.
The advances raise several problems. Who, for example, owns the rights to a
famous persons voice?( Some experts even believe that new contracts will be
drawn that include voice-licensing clauses.)
And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough
to commit fraud(假冒),
would the synthesized(合成的) voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they
were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they know?
Even Mr Fruchterman, one of AT&T labs possible first
customers, said he wondered what the new technology might bring.“Just like you
cant trust a photograph any more.”he said,“you wont be able to trust a voice
either.”
53. With
the help of the speech software, it is most possible_______ .
A.to
improve a famous persons speech
B.to
say what you want in anothers voice
C.to
make a speech much more easily
D.to
help you to find a better job
54. If
the speech software were widely used,_______ .
A.people
would no longer believe each other
B.it
would not be necessary to go for a speech by a famous person
C.no
radio or TV broadcasters would be needed
D.recording
of a voice alone would not be taken as a proof in the court
55. According
to the passage, you can infer that_______ .
A.the
software will turn out to be an immediate success in the market.
B.the
government will forbid the sale of the software in the market.
C.its
hard to decide whether the software will enjoy popularity.
D.the
software will soon prove to be nothing but rubbish.
56. The
passage mainly wants to_______ .
A.introduce
a new software
B.explain
the disadvantage of a new invention
C.advertise
a new kind of product
D.describe
the future market of a new product
Although they may not die from lack of love, adults also need a
great amount of affection(友情) and companionship. In the past, many people spent their entire
lives in the communities in which they were born and raised. Many more people
continued to live with their parents, brothers and sisters after they were
married and had children of their own. By remaining in familiar communities
with relatives nearby, families had enough opportunities for friendly contact
and for support in time of trouble.
Recent studies suggest that
family arrangements in Western societies have not changed as much in the last
few centuries as is generally believed. Yet most sociologists agree that in
modern societies, there are fewer opportunities for friendship and support from
relatives outside the immediate family. Parents and children often live apart
from other relatives, and seldom visit them. Also, the family moves when a
parent accepts a job in another place or when it decides to live in a better
neighborhood. Together, loneliness and mobility(迁移) force immediate family members to depend heavily on one another
for affection and companionship.
Because the family is one of the few ongoing sources of affection
and companionship in modern societies, a high percentage of people continue to
marry, even though it is possible for a single man and woman to live together
without marrying. On the other hand, because affection and companionship have
become so important, families are more likely to break up if the husbands or
wifes emotiona needs are not met within the family circle-even if all other
family functions are being satisfactorily performed, and in this sense,
affection and companionship have become the touchstone of the modern family.
57. It
is generally believed that _______.
A.many
people spend their lives in familiar communities
B.a
person can easily get in touch with relatives in times of difficulty
C.the
organization of the family has changed a great deal
D.western
societies have not changed much in the past few years
58. Sociological
studies show that_______ .
A.the
more the family moves, the less support it gets from its distant relatives
B.parents
and children live together to make up for the lack of relatives outside the
family
C.family
arrangements have changed and so there is little need for companion of
relatives
D.family
members are separated from each other because of lack of support from relatives
59. The
word“touchstone”in the last paragraph may be replaced by_______ .
A.result
B.trouble
C.function
D.standard
60. In
the last paragraph, the writer mainly wants to say_______ .
A.affection
and companionship are important for the family and they can be gained from
nowhere but the family
B.affection
and companionship can come from the family and at the same time safeguard the
family
C.there
are few ways to gain affection and companionship but the best way to get them
is from the family
D.in
modern societies a lot of families break up and its just for a lack of
affection and companionship

Dear editor,
I m writing to tell you about the discussion we
recently had about whether we should know our parents income. We do have different opinions on this matter.
Most of us
(about 70%) think we should know our parents income since it will help us
understand how hard our parents have to work, no matter how much they earn. then
we will study harder and will not waste money any more. we may also learn to
share our parents trouble.
About 30% of my classmates think
it unnecessary to let the children know how much their parents earn. If they
know their parents have enough money to support the family, they will not study
hard since they neednt worry about the future.It is said ,especially when
their parents have an income, the children will easily form a wasteful habit.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
