试题分析:本文是一篇说明文,告诉了我们做快速阅读的时候可能存在的一些问题,以及解决方法。
.【1】C分析推断题。根据前一句:Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those which you might have也许你已经被告知一些阻碍你阅读速度加快的方法,并且被强烈推荐改变你已经有了的习惯。可以知道下一句和这些习惯有关,故选C
【2】D分析推断题。根据后文中的排比式的if的句子,每一个句子都是针对上文中的问题的,该空句前一句是说当你阅读的时候,你用手指着单词么,对应下面的第二个if句子。所以该空处的句子对应的是下面的第三个if的句子。If you move your head, place your chin (下巴)in one hand and hold your head still .如果你摇头晃脑,用手托着下巴,让你的头静止不动。可以推测故选D
【3】B分析推断题。该空和前一个空的问题紧挨着,所以应该是下面对应的第四个句子If you read no more than one or two three words at a time, you need to work very hard in learning to take in more words at each glance as your eyes travel across the lines of words.如果你一次读不了几个词,你需要非常努力,在你的眼睛浏览文章每行的单词的时候每次多看几个词。故选B
【4】F分析推断题,根据该句前一句If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips 如果你的嘴唇动了,把你的食指放到唇上,或者在两片唇上放一张纸。可以推断后果,如果嘴动了,纸会掉下来,你就会知道,故选F
【5】G分析推断题。根据该句前一句 If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand如果你阅读的时候用手指着单词,拿着书的两侧,一边用左手,一遍用右手指着单词。可以推断后一句中会强调后果,故选G。

【题目】Scores on English tests are very important to students around the world. In order to make sure that they do their best, both students and teachers should stay informed of how these tests are changing.
Clive Roberts is a director at ELS Educational Services, one of the companies that trains students in English. Mr. Roberts says the tests are changing greatly in response to the global growth in the use of English as a lingua franca – the common language used among people with different native languages.
Mr. Roberts says English “is one of the keys now to international student mobility. So, for that reason, __【1】___; old tests are being revamped to meet the needs of universities and employers worldwide.”
In other words, students increasingly need English in order to study and work in other countries. So, schools and businesses are asking for more accurate tests.
___【2】___
Mr. Roberts says several parts of standardized tests have changed recently. Now, many tests are given on computers. And, he says, tests measure all four skills of language learning: reading, listening, speaking and writing.
"A lot of are now delivered online, all four skills are being tested, in some cases, by computer, in particular speaking and writing skills, which are the most difficult to assess on a computer environment."
Computer testing will reduce the length of time required for testing, because the tests adjust to the test-taker’s ability. These computer-adaptive tests also increase accuracy in scoring. Computer-adaptive tests change depending on the test-taker’s responses. They can become more or less difficult during the testing session. For this reason, the set of correct answers will be different for each test-taker.
___【3】__
Another change to language testing relates to cultural sensitivity. The term refers to material on a test that is based on a certain culture or is hard for test-takers from different cultures to understand.
Mr. Roberts says test development companies are now hiring people with intercultural communication backgrounds to review test items. The companies want to make sure the test does not upset test-takers. Having negative feelings may affect a student's performance on the test.
___【4】__
Changes to English proficiency tests make them better at measuring the learners' ability. However, Mr. Roberts says the changes may mean the tests are more difficult for some students.
"The tests have become more proficiency-oriented. The items are being designed in such a way that they test real-world proficiency and not simply sort of an artificial environment or a specific set of skills that are taught in a classroom. So a lot of authentic texts, a lot of authentic listening passages are being used.”
The changes mean students have to be able to understand English the way it is used in everyday life, not just in textbooks.
__【5】___
Another big change is the way in which a student's performance on the tests is measured. Mr. Roberts says that many tests are measured according to the Common European Frame of Reference (CERF) scale of language proficiency.
This measurement, Mr. Roberts says, “is similar to the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) and the Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR) guidelines, which are used by American universities and government agencies, respectively.”
The rating scales and guidelines are designed to show what the learner is able to do in the areas of speaking, reading, listening and writing.
Mr. Roberts says, “It gives a description of what they can do with the language and then assigns a numerical value to that particular level.”
Mr. Roberts says he believes linking the scores and the scales means the tests provide more useful information about a learner’s ability than they did before.
In addition, changes to the tests will encourage schools to teach their students to use English for everyday life and study.
A.Cultural sensitivity
B.What the tests measure
C.a lot of new tests are being developed
D.Difficulties in language testing
E.Changes in language testing
F.new tests are being measured by some language experts
G.Accuracy in language testing

【题目】Researchers are finding new ways to save snakebite victims.Experts discussed the latest findings during a recent conference.
Scientists in Australia have shown that a chemical called nitric oxide could increase the chances of surviving a poisonous snakebite.The scientists injected rats with a deadly amount of snake venom.Then they rubbed an ointment(软膏)containing nitric oxide on the skin around the injection site.The study found that the rats lived about one-third longer than if nitric oxide had not been used.But the treatment had to be started very quickly.
Dirk van Helden led the research.He says the nitric oxide ointment also showed promise in humans.The study appeared earlier this year in the journal Nature Medicine.Scientists say the findings could help save many lives.A recent study found that poisonous snakes cause as many as ninety-four thousand deaths worldwide each year.But Ulrich Kuch of the Biodiversity and Climate Research Center in Frankfurt,Germany,says that number appears to be low.
Mr Kuch says many deaths could be prohibited if snakebite victims are treated correctly,but they often go to traditional healers or do not seek any help at all.He said,“Sometimes it’s because there is no treatment available—no antivenom(抗蛇毒血清),which is the specific(特殊的)drug to treat snakebites—or health care staff do not know how to treat snakebites,and sometimes its because transportation to get to a health facility is not available or too expensive.
Here is no single antivenom that can be used to treat all snakebites.The antivenom must be specific to the kind of snake that bit the person.In some countries the treatment is costly,while in others there is no such treatment.
【1】What is this passage mainly about?( )
A.Snakebite deaths around the world.
B.Progress in fighting snakebite deaths.
C.Snakebite treatment around the world.
D.The chances of surviving a poisonous snakebite.
【2】After being rubbed an ointment containing nitric oxide,the rats .
A.suffered no pain B.died immediately
C.lived a little longer D.started feeling uncomfortable
【3】What does Paragraph 3 suggest?( )
A.The number of deaths caused by snakebites is becoming lower each year.
B.The nitric oxide ointment has saved thousands of people’s lives.
C.It is very important to find an effective way to treat snakebites.
D.The number of deaths caused by snakebites worldwide is low.
【4】What does the underlined word “prohibited” in Paragraph 4 mean?( )
A. caused. B.considered.
C.examined. D.prevented.
【5】What is implied in the last paragraph?( )
A.Antivenom can be made very easily.
B.It’s very important to use the correct antivenom to treat snakebite victims.
C.Antivenom is extremely expensive all over the world.
D.A person bitten by a snake will survive as long as there is antivenom.
