5.It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams,the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life,but manners on the road are becoming horrible.Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel.It is all right to have a tiger in a cage,but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners,but good sense.It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving.On the other hand,a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions.But such behaviorsof politeness are by no means enough.Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However,misplaced politeness can also be dangerous.Typical examples are the driver whowaves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not beable to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever andwhenever they want to.
An experienced driver,whose manners are faultless,told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings.
Unfortunately,modern drivers can't even learn to drive,let alone master the road man ship.Years ago,experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-takefrom all road users.It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
47.The passage mainly talks aboutA.
A.Road politeness
B.Traffic jams
C.Good manners
D.Modern drivers
48.Troubles on the road are often caused byD.

D.the behavior of the drivers
49.According to the writer,a good driver shouldB.

B.be able to recognize politeness when he sees it
C.join in traffic stream quickly however other people feel
D.encourage old ladies to cross the roads whenever they want to
50.It is not always right for drivers toC.
A.master roadman ship
B.create atmosphere of good will
C.encourage old ladies to cross the road
D.give a friendly nod to show politeness.

分析 本文介绍了司机开车是应该注意的行为方式.随着车辆的增多,很多司机都有路怒症,平时非常绅士的人开车的时候会变成一只老虎,而且现在的很多司机看起来不知道什么才是有礼貌.司机们应该知道一个小的礼貌行为就可以降低争吵和斗殴的可能,但是有些礼貌行为是不对的,例如给老人让路,让他们随意过马路的礼貌是不对的,因此司机们有必要学习公路礼仪.

解答 47.答案:A.主旨大意题.根据第二段首句Road politeness is not only good manners,but good sense;第三段第一句However,misplaced politeness can also be dangerous;以及末段首句Unfortunately,modern drivers can't even learn to drive,let alone master the road man ship可以知道主题是公路礼节,因此答案是A Road politeness.
48.答案:D.细节推理题.根据首段的Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel可以知道平时非常绅士的人开车的时候会变成一只老虎;以及后面对司机路上行为举止的各种解释,可以知道公路上的麻烦主要是由司机引起的,因此答案是D.the behavior of the drivers.
49.答案:B.细节题.根据第二段末尾Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.可以知道现在的很多司机看起来不知道什么才是有礼貌,因此答案是B.be able to recognize politeness when he sees it.其他选项,根据第二段中a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.可以知道一个小的礼貌行为就可以降低争吵和斗殴的可能,因此A项是错误的;根据倒数第二段中 it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings可以知道司机应该学会在加入车流是不会造成拥堵,引起别人的不快,因此C项是错的;根据第三段中的misplaced politeness can also be dangerous和The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever andwhenever they want to.可以知道给老人让路,让他们随意过马路的礼貌是不对的,因此否定D项.
50.答案:C.细节题.根据第三段中的misplaced politeness can also be dangerous和The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever andwhenever they want to.可以知道给老人让路,让他们随意过马路的礼貌是不对的,因此答案是C项.

13.India was once part of the British Empire,but thanks to modern technology and a booming economy,it has turned the tables on its former colonial master.Indian tutors are helping to teach math to British children over high-speed Internet connections.Early results suggest the idea is improving exam results.But not everyone is happy at this"outsourcing"of tutoring.
   It's 3:30,and pupils at Raynham Primary School in London are gathering for their after-school maths lessons.
   Five time zones-thousands of kilometers away-their math tutors are also arriving for class.High-speed Internet has made it possible for Indian tutors to teach British pupils in real time.Each pupil gets a dedicated one-to-one online tutor.The students work with activities on their computer screen and wear a headset and microphone to talk to their tutor.
   The class teacher,Altus Basson,says he has seen an improvement in results."There are some children who've really rocketed in their results.Children who struggleto focus in class focus a lot better on the laptops.The real advantage is that each child gets a focused activity and a single tutor,"he said.
   Such individualized teaching is the core idea of Brightspark Education,the company that provides the online tutoring,says founder Tom Hooper."Children today feel very confident online; they feel very engaged; they feel very in control.And that's half the battle with education.Give them control,make them feel confident and enjoy their learning and you'll see them start to improve and embrace it,"he said.
    Raynham Primary School is among the first in Europe to try online tutoring.At between 20and25 an hour,it's about half the cost of face-to-face coaching.But some people say an Internet connection is not enough of a connection for teaching and learning.Kevin Courtney is deputy General Secretary of Britain's National Union of Teachers."We think,there's a really important emotional connection between a teacher and a child whether it's a whole class or whether it's one-to-one.You need that immediacy of feedback and we're not convinced that that can happen across an Internet connection.In one of the wealthiest.countries in the world,we think that we can afford to have teachers with genuine emotional connection there with the
children,"he said.
    Brightspark Education says the online tutoring is used only as an addition to supplement regular teaching.The company says its service does not represent a threat to teachers'jobs in Britain.
    Parents say they're very satisfied with the results they've seen.And what about the children?Children:"I love it!"I love it!"I hate maths!"So math--or,as the British call it,maths-is still not everyone's favorite subject even with the latest technology to teach it.
49.What do we know about the online tutoring?B
   A.Indian tutors are helping to teach math in Britain.
   B.Tutors and students are in different places.
   C.An online tutor helps several students at the same time.
   D.Tutors and students communicate by telephone.
50.What can we learn about Brightspark Education?D
   A.It shows a threat to teachers'jobs in Britain.
   B.It can take place of the regular teaching.
   C.It only pays attention to math teaching.
   D.It emphasizes the individualized teaching.
51.According to Kevin Courtne,C.
   A.online tutoring will represent a threat to teachers'jobs in Britain
   B.online tutoring has a great influence on British.
   C.the emotional connection between a teacher and a child is important
   D.immediacy of feedback can happen across an Internet connection
52.What's the best title for this passage?D
 A.A New Teaching Pattern                     
 B.Indian Teachers and British Students
 C.To Learn Maths with the Latest Technology    
 D.Indian Tutors Teach British Kids Online.

20.Garden Route,South Africa
Take in fresh sea air in this beautiful coastal setting as you cruise the famous Garden Route in the Western Cape in South Africa.A wildlife break is a must,as is enjoying great meal stops along the route.There are wildlife reserves throughout the Graden Route National Park you can swing into and spend a sleepy morning in a car looking for giraffes and lions.And just over your shoulder in the big blue there are whales to be watched (if the season is right).
Top tip:Add a trip to the Eastern Cape to your Garden Route trip.It is much less known than the Western Cape and full of great landscapes.The gas station is occasionally seen.
Great Ocean Road,Australia
Sweep along this dramatic coastal road in Austrlia with views of the Southern Ocean from Geelong to Portland,in Victoria,and you won't regret it.Anyone who has driven it just can't stop talking about it,and with good reason.There're loads to see and plenty of great stops.There's whale-watching here too,and other natural life.And to top it all,there'll be plenty of good old Aussie kindness and welcome when you pull in for lunch or a coffee stop.

Top Tip:Take some Swiss Francs as well as some Euros,so you can make the trip a cross-border experience.
