2.授课形式2:英语、汉语兼用

注意:100词左右.
参考词汇:atmosphere 氛围.
How do you prefer English classes to be taught,in English only,or in both English and Chinese?
I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only.As we know,a good learning environment is vital if we want to study English well.(高分句型一)Classes taught in English provide students with such an environment.When Englishis the only language used in the classroom,students will have more opportunities to practice listening and speaking.Therefore,they will be able to learn more quickly.
However,there are also some problems with this teaching method.As we haven't mastered enough English words,sometimes we may find it difficult to follow the teacher.(高分句型二)Slow learners may even lose interest in English.
Practice makes perfect.To learn English well requires a lot of practice.Therefore,Ilike my English classes to be taught completely in English.
Or:
How do you prefer English classes to be taught?in English only,or in both English and Chinese?
I prefer my English classes to be taught in both Chinese and English.In my opinion,learning English is a step-by-step process.As middle school students,we only have a small vocabulary.If the teacher can use some Chinesein an English class,we will underst and the lesson better. (高分句型三)
Of course,an English class taught in two languages has its shortcomings.Such a class cannot create a good atmosphere for English learning.Some students will speak Chinese all the time and cannot learn English well.
If you want to learn a lesson well,you have to understand it first.To help students understand the lesson better,the teacher should use Chinese from time to time.(高分句型四)Therefore,Ilike my teacher to use both English and Chinese in teaching..

4.Hawking has left much for Chinese to think about.  British physicist Stephen Hawking,possibly the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein,gave lectures in Zhejiang and Beijing in August.
An illness left him unable to move any part of his body except for three fingers. But his continuing efforts in the field of science have made many young people take him as their idol(偶像).His books,Such as A Brief History of  Time(《时间简史》),become best sellers in Chinese bookstores."Hawking helps people expand their-horizons and become interested in science,"said Pan Yunhe,president of Zhejiang University.
Indeed,experts don't think it likely that Hawking's lectures and profound(深奥的) ideas will be easily understood by the average person.  But he has certainly sowed the seeds of science among many young people.
And the"Hawking fever"caused by his visit has made people ask,"How can China produce more top scientists like Hawking?"

In Britain,Zhang said,teachers encourage students to have a general understanding of the subjects they are interested in.  And they also encourage students to develop new ideas,which helps them to nurture their creativity.
In China,the Ministry of Education(教育部)has encouraged schools to provide quality education to tap(开发)student potential(潜力).
"I hope teachers will pay more attention to helping us use our imaginations(想象力) and solve problems on our own,"said Lu Jie,a 9th grader of Sanfan Middle School in Beijing.

1.Housework is a frequent source of conflict between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives,but women have been warned not to expect men to pull their weight any time soon.
A study from Oxford University has found that men are unlikely to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050.Mothers,the researchers warned,will continue to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework for the next four decades,largely because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still regarded as"women's work".
The gap between the amount of time men and women spend on housework has narrowed slowly over the past 40 years.But it will take another four decades before true housework equality is achieved,the study concluded.
The research found that in the Nordic countries,the burden of housework is shared more equally between men and women.In the UK,women spend an average of four hours and forty minutes each day on housework,compared with two hours and twenty-eight minutes for men.This is an improvement from the 1960s,when British women typically spent six hours a day on housework,while men spent just 90minutes every day.
But progress towards housework equality appears to be slowing in some countries.Dr Oriel Sullivan,a research reader from Oxford's Department of Sociology,said,"we've looked at what is affecting the equality in the home,and we have found that certain tasks seem to be given according to whether they are viewed as‘men's work'or‘women's work'."
Dr.Sullivan said cultural attitudes taught at school may be responsible for the views of housework."At school it is much easier for a girl to be a tomboy,but it is much more difficult for a boy to enjoy baking and dancing,"she said.

25.What does the underlined part"pull their weight"in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?C
A.Lose weight.
B.Earn money.
C.Do equal housework.
D.Be lazy.
26.Why will women continue to do more housework before 2050?D
A.Men are too busy to help.
B.They would like to do so.
C.They can do better in housework.
D.Housework will still be considered"women's work".
27.From Paragraph 4 we know that in the UKB.
A.men now spend just 90 minutes a day on housework on average
B.women now spend less time on housework than before
C.housework is shared equally between men and women
D.women now are too busy with their work to do housework
28.In Dr.Sullivan's opinion,what is to blame for the housework inequality?A
A.Cultural attitudes towards housework.
B.Policies made by the government.
C.The time spent on work.
D.The type of housework.

8.Overhead bridges are found in many parts of big cities,especially in places (46)where traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous.The purpose of these bridges (47)is(be) to enable pedestrians to cross roads (48)safely(safe).Overhead bridges are used in very much the (49)sameway as Zebra crossings.They are more efficient although (50)less(little) convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps.This is (5)inconvenient(convenient) especially to older people.When pedestrians use an overhead bridge,they do not hold up traffic.However,when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing,traffic is held up.This is why the government has built many overhead bridges (52)to help(help) pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.For their own safety,pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of (53)risking (risk) their lives by dashing across the road.Old people,however,may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps,but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic.Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose.Pedestrians,both old and young,should make (54)it a habit to use them.This will prevent unnecessary accidents and (55)loss(lose) of life.

2.Clean water is not only important for food production,but necessary for our life.However,large numbers of people in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa are going without.The World Health Organization reports that almost 4,000 children die each day for dirty water or lack of water.
Agriculture is the primary user of water at 70-85% of fresh water in the world.Industrial uses of water don't often come to mind,but you may be surprised to know that industry uses 59% of the water supply in developed countries.
Home use takes up only 8% in the world.But as cities grow,the local government has to cut down on water use.Many cities are turning to privatization (私有化) of water as a method of controlling use.The poor are paying as much as a quarter of their monthly income for water in some developing countries.
In 60% of large European cities,groundwater is being used at a faster rate.People are saving water by simply using less and being careful with what they do use.Sometimes it's as simple as not throwing out water that they could use elsewhere.
In Australia overuse of water has always been a problem.The Australian government has encouraged households and industries to collect rainwater and reuse water from showers.Technolog is helping householders for shower and bath water for reuse in toilets or gardens.
The U.S.Environmental Protection Agency has made a water saving program designed to encourage families and businesses to examine their water use and save more water.Good water management has been considered by scientists and the UN as the key to solving the water problem.We can all work together to protect our valuable water in our daily life.

8.In developed countries,most water is used byA.
A.industry
B.agriculture
C.families
D.businesses
9.To save water,what do Australians and Europeans both choose to do?D
A.Find more groundwater.
B.Make good use of rainwater.
C.Encourage people to have fewer showers
D.Recycle water for a second use.
