【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
That our students rarely get the opportunity to use their imagination was an open secret among Chinese people. Now,a global survey has brought it to the notice of the rest of the world.
The survey covering 21 countries,conducted by International Educational Progress Evaluation Organization,showed Chinese students excelled at math,beating their peers from other countries. But when it came to using their imagination,they were tied for the last place. And in creativity,they were fifth from the bottom.
The survey results are not shocking,given the way our children are taught in schools and at home. But they are a severe reminder to our educators and parents to improve their ways.
Chinese students rarely get the time or chance to use their imagination. Right from the day they enter school they are pushed into a culture of exams and more exams. Teachers and parents teach them that education is all about passing these exams with flying colors. And to pass those exams,they are made to learn by fixed standard answers.
Teachers dare not encourage students to think outside the box. Teachers don't like students questioning them,killing the curiosity of the young minds. For children,there's hardly any room for bright ideas either in class or at home.
Israel shares the values of education with China. But there is a world of difference between the way Israeli parents treat their children and we do. Israeli parents do not mollycoddle their children. Instead,they encourage them to learn how to live independently. In contrast,Chinese parents go to extremes,allowing their children to do whatever they like to do and punishing them severely the next for committing a “mistake”.
The global study should make us swing into action and help our students to throw open their young minds to imagination and creativity. It is time our education officials and educators asked themselves what they should do to let our children's imagination and creativity blossom.
【1】Based on the passage,the creativity of the Chinese students ranks ________ among the 21 countries.
A.the 5th
B.the 17th
C.the 21st
D.the 1st
【2】Why is the imagination of the Chinese students so poor?
A.Their parents often improve their educational ways.
B.They are thought to be lacking in curiosity.
C.Their teachers are afraid of being questioned.
D.They are not encouraged to imagine both at home and in class.
【3】What does the underlined word “mollycoddle” probably mean in Paragraph 6?
A.spoil
B.motivate
C.appreciate
D.scold
【4】It can be learned from the passage Israeli parents ________.
A.lay much more emphasis on education than Chinese ones
B.allow their children to live in whatever way they like
C.focus more attention on developing their children's living ability
D.encourage their children to commit mistakes in lives
【5】Israel is introduced in the passage mainly ________.
A.to enrich the content of the text
B.to support and advocate Israel education
C.to illustrate the disadvantages of Chinese education
D.to criticize the wrong behavior of Chinese parents

Dear Tom,
I’m an Australian boy of 16 years old, which lives in Sydney. I like Chinese very much, but I want a pen pal in China. At school I like playing football and tennis. Our favorite subject is science because it’s very interesting. I won’t like history, for I think it’s rather boring. I play guitar well, so I join in the school rock band. In the afternoon we usually play football or tennis. We usually got home at about 5:30 pm. For weekends I often go out for a swim, which is really relaxed. Do you like sports and games? What do you like to play?
I’m looking forward to get your early reply.
Yours truly,
Jack

【题目】How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments-mostly for entertainment purposes-is fair and respectful?
Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.
Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.
The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered.Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild.Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?
Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.
【1】In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.
A.remain in cages B.attack other animals
C.behave strangely D.enjoy moving around
【2】What does the author try to argue in the passage?
A.Zoos fail in their attempt to save animal
B.Zoos are not worth the public support.
C.Zoos should treat animals as human beings.
D.Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.
【3】The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.
A.using evidence he has collected at zoos
B.pointing out the faults in what zoos do
C.questioning the way animals are protected
D.discussing the advantages of natural habitats
【4】Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that __________.
A.zoos have to keep animals in small cages
B.most animals in zoos are endangered species
C.it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats
D.some endangered animals are reproduced in zoos
