    Liberal education is becoming the task of teachers. It is   36  not only to teach and learn knowledge, but also develop a person' s character. Its   37  is to teach each student to think for himself and make   38  decisions. Now liberal education has a great effect on the world. Much work has been done to   39  a better way of teaching.
    In a liberal 40  , students are encouraged to have their own thoughts and their own ideas   41 they have lessons which are often held in the form of   42  . They are properly guided to   43  the knowledge learned. Punishment   44  exists. Teachers and students are just like   45
    The   46  is of course a perfect one if it can really be carried out. However, it  47  exists in the imagination and will never be realized. We must admit that children should at least be   48  properly. Just close your  49  and think how many students will   50   the duties of a student if they are not pushed. What is the  51  of advice only if it is not supported by a reasonable   52  of control and punishment?
    It is   53  for us to judge the success and failure of the kind of education now, but   54  the behavior of the children, which is actually the   55  of liberal education, we can see that something must be done to help these children.

    Continuing from the previous post 6 reasons to improve your body language, here is just a few of many pointers on how to improve your body language. Improving your body language can make a big difference in your people skills, attractiveness and general mood.
    There is no specific advice on how to use your body language. What you do might be interpreted in several ways, depending on the setting and who you are talking to. You’ll probably want to use your body language differently when talking to your boss compared to when you talk to a girl/guy you’re interested in. These are some common interpretations（解释，诠释） of body language and often more effective ways to communicate with your body.
    First, to change your body language you must be aware of your body language. Notice how you sit, how you stand, how you use you hands and legs, what you do while talking to someone.
    You might want to practice in front of a mirror. Yeah, it might seem silly but no one is watching you. This will give you good feedback on how you look to other people and give you an opportunity to practise a bit before going out into the world.
    Another tip is to close your eyes and visualize how you would stand and sit to feel confident, open and relaxed or whatever you want to communicate. See yourself move like that version of yourself. Then try it out.You can also take bits and pieces you like from different people. Try using what you can learn from them.
    小题1:According to the passage, the improved body language can ______.
    make people charming
    make people encouraged
    make people disappointed
    make people interested
    小题2:From paragraph 2, we can learn that ______ will depend on how to use your body language.
    some specific advice on how to use your body language
    the backgrounds and the person who you are communicating with
    the way a person communicate with other people
    the mood of the person who you are communicating with 
    小题3:If a person wants to change his body language when he is talking, he must ______.
    pay attention to others’ postures
    pay attention to his own hands and legs
    pay attention to his own body language

    Science。And technology students in China and the US  have a1ong way to go before they call develop a deep understanding of scientific reasoning,researchers have found．
    As part of a research to compare science education in China and the US，LeiBao,a professor
    from the Departmenr of Physics of the Ohio State University, gave 5,760；freshmen in three US and four Chinese univeristies two tests to evaluate content knowledge  and another to assess scientific reasoning
    Though Chinese students did better than their US counterparts in the first two tests that
    Emphasized on learning facts,both groups “scored relatively poorly”on the third test,designed to
    Assess their ability ot systmatically explore a problem , the results showed.
    Lei Bao said that the finding challenges conventional wisdom，which holds that teaching
    science facts will improve students’reasoning ability．“Our study shows that ,contrary to what many  people would expect，even when students are thoroughly taught the facts，they don’t necessarily develop the reasoning skills they need io succeed．’’IBao said：‘“Because students need both knowledge and reasoning,we need to explore teaching methods that target both．”
    ‘The current education systems and asessment of China and the US do not emphasize on deep understanding of scientific reasoning in the disciplines of science；technology,engineering and mathematics(STEM)，the study concluded．
    Bao explained that reasoning is good skill for everyone topossess-not just scientists and
    engineers：The general public also need good reasoning skills in order to correctly interpret
    scientific findings and think rationally．STEM students need to excael at scientific reasoning in order to handle open-ended real-world tasks in their future careers in science and engineering．
    How to boost scientific reasoning?The study suggests that educators must go beyond teaching science facts if they hope to boost students’reasoning ability．Bao points to inquiry-based leaming.where students work in groups，question teachers and design their owu investigations．This teaching technique is growing in popularity worldwide．
    67．According to the research，we know that              
    A．Chinese students and their US counterparts did poorly in the first two tests
    B．Chinese students did beaer than their US counterparts in alI the three tests
    C．Chinese students did beaer than their US counterparts in the first two tests    ‘
    D．US students did beaer than their Chinese counterparts in the third test
    68．The conventional wisdom holds that           ．
    A．the more facts~tudents are taught，the more reasoning skills they will acquire
    B．the general public also need reasoning skills to interpret scientific findings
    C．to boost students’reasoning ability,educators must explore teaching methods
    D．the current education Systems are harmful to improve students’reasoning ability
    69．Based on the study,what will be done to improve students’reasoning ability?
    A．To improve teaching techniques．        B．To better students’learning conditions．
    C．To teach students more science facts．    D．To offer students more tests．
    70．The underlined phrase“excel at”in Paragraph 6 probably means       ．

    Modern scientists have mad great development in building computers that can imitate logical thought. There are two schools of thought on artificial intelligence(人工智能)。 Supporters of “Strong AI” consider that all human thought can be broken down into a set of mathematical operations. They expect that they will one day be able to copy the human mind and create a robot able to both think and feel, with a sense of self---the stuff of classic science fiction. Supporters of “Weak AI” think a computer might seem intelligent, but it is not aware of what it is doing, with no sense of self or consciousness.
    Now the development of life---like robots may be closer to reality than you think. Engineers have created robotic soccer players, and bees that act like the real thing.
    Powered by a small battery on her back, humanoid robot Lola is a soccer champion. “The idea of the robot is that it can walk and see things because it has a video camera on top.” Raul Rojas, Ph.D., professor of artificial intelligence at Freie University in Berlin, Germany, told Ivanhoe. Using the camera on her head, Lola recognizes objects by color.
    “Using this camera, Lola can locate objects on the floor, such as a red ball, go after the ball and try to score a goal,” said Dr. Rojas. German engineers have also created a bee robot. It can imitate the bee’s “waggle” dance which communicates the location of food and water.
    “Later what we want to prove is that the robot can send the bees in any decided direction using the waggle dance,” said Dr. Rojas.
    Robots like this could one day become high-tech surveillance(侦察) tools that secretly fly and record data.
    64. Robotic soccer players mentioned in the text reach the level of        .
    A. “Strong AI” technology        B. “Weak AI” technology
    C. being able to think themselves  D. having a sense of consciousness
    65. How does Lola tell different objects according to the text?
    A. By microwave   B. By sound    C. By smell.   D. By color
    66. The underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refers to “      ”.
    A. a bee robot                       B. a robotic soccer player
    C. a bee that can use the waggle dance  D. a surveillance tool
    67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
    A. A robot able to both think and feel only exists in science fiction now.
    B. Scientists have created the robots that can play soccer better than men.
    C. Engineers have created robotic soccer players and bees that can replace the real thing,
    D. Scientists have made great development in recording data in the past few years.

    第三部分：阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分, 满分40分)
    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。
    Snakes bite an estimated 5.5 million people worldwide each year. Experts say tens of thousands of people die from venom poisoning. An untreated or incorrectly treated bite might require the removal of a bitten foot, for example, or an arm. Each year around 400,000 amputations are the result of snakebites.
    Last year, for the first time, the World Health Organization added snakebites to its list of "neglected tropical diseases". This recognition aims to bring greater attention to the problem. Scientists know of about 3,000 kinds of snakes. About 600 of them are venomous. These are most often found in rural areas in tropical climates. Asia and Africa have the highest number of snakebites -- together about 4 million a year. Latin America and islands in the South Pacific follow.
    The highest number of victims are agricultural workers. Snakebites are also common among fishermen, hunters and children. Many victims live in areas with poor or non-existent health care systems and where anti-venom treatments are often not available.
    Anti-venom is the only cure. But experts say anti-venom technologies and their use need to be improved. Problems include a shortage of manufacturers and the high cost of treatment. Also, there is a widespread lack of knowledge among local health workers about how to use anti-venoms. The treatments can cause dangerous and even deadly reactions if not used carefully.
    Anti-venom contains proteins (蛋白质) from animals such as horses or sheep. The animals are injected repeatedly with one or more different snake venoms to produce immunity (免疫力). The Lancet Medical Journal recently published a series of reports on snakebite prevention and treatment, David Warrell at the University of Oxford in England co-wrote one of them. He praised efforts by the WHO to establish common practices for the production, regulation and control of anti-venom. But he says more must be done.
    The authors say community education programs could help prevent snakebites by teaching people how to avoid them. They also suggest actions like providing protective boots to wear while working in fields, and not sleeping on the ground. Also important is providing information about where dangerous snakes are most likely to live and when they are most active.
    56. What's the meaning of the underlined word "amputations" in Paragraph 1?
    A. removals of one's arms or legs                       B. deaths caused by infection
    C. injuries of snakebites                                D. fames of a celebrity
    57. Why did WHO add snakebites to its list of "neglected tropical diseases"?
    A. To warn people of the danger of snakes.        
    B. To encourage people to protect wild animals.
    C. To ask people to pay more attention to this kind of disease.
    D. To study the problem of tropical weather conditions.
    58. Which of the following is True according to the passage?
    A. The victims wouldn’t be injured if they had better health-care systems.
    B. Anti-venom technologies and their uses are medically safe and perfect.
    C. Patients need to pay a little if they get treated with the anti-venoms.
    D. The local health workers need further training on how to use anti-venoms.
    59. The animals are injected with different snake venoms because _______.
    A. they have been bitten by venomous snakes      B. venoms can help to cure their diseases
    C. this can help produce the immunity                D. medical experiments are being carried out

    The Royal Horticultural Society(RHS) finds that women gardeners’ voices speed up the growth of tomato plants much more than men’s.
    In an experiment, the researchers found that tomato plants grew up to two inches taller if they were sung to by a female rather than a male.
    The most effective voice came from Sarah Darwin, whose great-great grandfather was the botanist(植物学家) Charles Darwin, one of the founding fathers of the RHS.
    She read a passage from the On the Origin of Species and beat nine other ‘voices’. Her plant grew nearly two inches taller than the best performing male and half an inch higher than her nearest competitor.
    Colin Crosbie, Garden Manager at the RHS, said, “We predicted that the male voice would be more effective but it turned out that the ladies’ voice was far better than the gentlemen’s. We just don’t know why. It could be because they have a greater range of pitch(高音) and tone(音色) that affects the sound waves that hit the plant.The sound wave is on environmental effect just like rain or light.”
    In the experiment, every plant was played a different voice through earphones connected to the plant pot, and the environmental conditions for all the plants remained the same throughout the experiment. To ensure that the results of the experiment were convincing, two plants were also left to grow in silence.
    The results showed that women on average saw their plants grow an inch taller than their male counterparts(对手) and much more than the plants left in complete silence.
    Miss Darwin said, “I’m not sure if it’s my sweet tones or the text that I read from On the Origin of Species that made the plant sit up and listen, but either way, I think it is an honor to have such a voice, and it is especially fitting for me, because for years I have been studying wild tomatoes at the Natural History Museum(NHM) in London.”
    　60. How many tomato plants were chosen for this experiment?
    　　  A. 9.　　　　   B. 10.            C. 11.　　  D.12.
    　61. What can we learn about Sarah Darwin?
    　　  A.She is very proud of her sweet voice..       
    B. She is one of the founding fathers of the RHS.
    　　  C. She has discovered why her voice benefits plants.
    　　  D. She will work at the NHM in London after the experiment.
    　62. Why were two plants left to grow in silence in the experiment?
    　　  A. To make the results of the experiment trustworthy.
    　　  B. To convince people that sound waves are better than rain and light.
    　　  C. To help find out how many inches plants can grow with the help of voices.
    　   D. To prove that the environmental conditions for the plants remained the same.
    　63. What can be inferred from the passage?
    　　  A. The text from On the Origin of Species can help plants grow..　　　　
    　　  B. Sarah’s nearest competitor was also a woman..
    　　  C.Men’s voices have a greater range of pitch and tone than women’s..
    　　  D.Colin Crosbie predicted that women’s voices were better for the plant than men’s.

    　 “Helping survivors (生还者) of the earthquake and killer waves in the Indian Ocean last week is a race against time” says Kofi Annan , the United Nations secretary-general .
    The concern about offers of international aid is based on history. Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our aim to give and receive support from one another under stressful surroundings. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties.
    Those of us with strong support systems appear betterable to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people prevent illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.
    Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we are popular with others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to notice and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移...注意力)us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support: a financial aid, material resources, and needed services -- that reduces stress by helping us deal with our problems.
    59. Research shows that people's physical and mental health _______.
    A. depends on the social welfare (福利)systems which support them
    B. has much to do with the amount of support they get from others
    C. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles
    D. is closely related to their strength for dealing with major changes in their lives
    60. The underlined word" cushions" in Para.3 means _______.
    A. adds up to                                  B. does away with
    C. reduce the effect of                 D. depends on
    61. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of _______.
    A. instrumental support                     B. informational support
    C. social companionship             D. the strengthening of self-respect
    62. Social companionship is very important because _______.
    A. it helps strengthen our ties with relatives
    B. it enables us to get rid of our faults and mistakes
    C. it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyable

    Professor Martin’s report says that children who attend a number of different schools，because their parents have to move around the country，probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs，says Professor Martin，that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected.
    The professor says，“It’s true，my personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. But our findings are based on research and not on any personal feelings. ”
    Captain Thomas James，an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two，said，“I’ve never heard of such rubbish. Taking me for example. no harm is done to the education of my children，who change schools regularly—if they keep to the same system，as in our Army schools. In my experience—and I’ve known quite a few of them—Army children are as well adjusted as any others，if not more so. What the professor doesn’t appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situation children will adapt much better than grown-ups.”
    When this reached Professor Martin，he said that at no time had his team suggested that all children were backward or mentally affected in some way，but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency.
    “Our findings show that while the very bright children can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress in studies，the majority of children suffer from constantly having to enter a new learning situation.”
    小题1:Professor’s Martin’s report suggests that      
    A．it may not be good for children to change schools too often
    		B．parents should not move around the country
    		C．changing schools is the reason of children making slow progress
    		D．more and more children are mentally affected
    小题2: According to the passage，Professor Martin's personal feeling.
    A．is the opposite of what his report has shown
    		B．is in a way supported by his research
    		C．has played a big part in his research
    		D．is based on the experience of his own children
    小题3:From the passage，we can conclude that Captain James’ children_____.
    A．have been affected by changing schools
    		B．go to ordinary state schools
    		C．can get used to the Army school education
    		D．discuss their education regularly with their father
    小题4:About children and grown-ups，Captain James says that children____.
    A．are generally poorly-adjusted
    B．are usually less experienced
    		C．can adapt much more easily
    D．can deal with changes quickly

    Working hard for fun
    No more pencils! No more books
    No more teacher’s serious looks!
    After a long period of study and work, the young Americans burst through the school doors singing.
    But unfortunately, American students do very poorly and are among the worst students in the world. In the entire field of subjects---from geography and maths to science and general knowledge. American students are the poorest performers. Why? What’s the reason behind the scene? One problem lies in the fact that so little is expected from them. The standards of success are too low. Teachers are not willing to give out low grades and fail students. Besides, the existing negative results are few and mean little to students if their performance in study is poor . Of course some students realize that a high school diploma is a measure of success and will be important to get a job or get admitted into college. But they only have to go through the motions without really trying. They learn to get by with a minimum of effort.
    In America, it is simply too easy for high school students to enter college. This forms a sharp contrast with the students in China and other Asian countries who have to suffer heavy pressure from parents, teachers and cruel social facts. Chinese students have to study hard for long years to pass the national college entrance examination which few Americans will take such trouble to enter to university. The majority American students know that they will be able to get into some college, so they do not really worry about it.
    It turns out that American high school students are just too busy to find time to study. They spend almost no time on study while students from other countries spend four or five hours per day on homework. American students on the average give less than five hours per week to their studies. Learning and reading for future are not important to them. Many American never read. It is little wonder why Americans knows less than students from other countries.
    1. Why are American students the poorest performers in the entire field of subjects?
    A. Because they are too busy to find time to study.
    B. Because they are too stupid and too lazy.
    C. Because they care little about their study.
    D. Because so little is required from them
    2. Which of the following is Not true ?
    A. Most of American students spend less than five hours on their study every week.
    B. Few American students have trouble to enter college.
    C. American students can be admitted into college even without a high school diploma.
    D. It is hard for the students in China to enter college.
    3. What seems to be the writer’s attitude towards American students?
    A. He probably thinks much should be expected from them.
    B. He is in favour of American students’ learning methods.
    C. He shows no interest in American students’ study.
    D. He thinks American students study hard.
