    Children with learning disabilities (LD) often have problems. For many, strong feelings of 36 , anger, sadness, or shame can lead to  37  difficulties such as anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. These problems can be far more than the academic challenges themselves.

Their academic struggles and failures are often met with   48  by teachers, peers, and parents. Such disapproval can take the form of negative labeling of a child as "slow," "lazy," or "dumb."  49   developing a sense of pride in their accomplishments, children with LD may   50   in frustration and shame.

    Gmail tmned five years old this week．It's somewhat amazing to think we've only had it since 2004; Gmail changed the webmail game forever by offering features we now take for granted: a streamlined interface （界面]） , powerful search, pioneering use ofAjax and a then-huge 1 GB of mailbox space．“You'll never need to delete another message " was how Google described it at the time．
    Back then, I was still making do with Hotmail．But its clumsy interface and tiny amount of storage space made the decision to move on an easy one．Getting an account made all the difference in the world to my email experience．Suddenly I was freed from having to delete emails every few days to make space in my mailbox．And the app（application） was smooth and responsive, like a desktop client （客户端程序）—and pretty fast in comparison to Hotmail．" Conversation view" and using labels instead of folders took a little getting used to, but in all Gmail felt far more professional and made me much more productive．
    Gmail is a favorite app of ours ever on WebWorkerDaily, and with good reason．It's still the best webmail client for web workers as it lets us access our email whenever and wherever we need to, on any device, with minimum effort．And Google hasn't spent the five years sitting on its Gmail success, either, but has introduced improvements to the service that include Gmail Tasks, chat, video chat and voice chat, combined with Google Calendar and Docs, Google Apps for Domains, and, of course, even more storage．We've recently covered the many features found in Gmail Labs: a way to "undo" seat messages, using canned responses for smart autoresponders, offline support using Gears and how to customize the way you．view your mailbox using multiple inboxes．

    It was a cold grey day in late November. The weather had changed overnight, when a backing wind brought a pale sky and a muzzling rain with it, and although it was now only a little after two o’clock in the afternoon the gray of a winter evening seemed to have closed upon the hills, surrounding them in mist. It would be dark by four. The leather seats felt damp to the hands, and there must have been a small crack in the roof, because now and again little drips of rain fell softly through, polluting the leather and leaving a dark – blue stain like a spot of ink. The wind came in, at times shaking the coach as it traveled round the bend of the road, and in the exposed places on the high ground it blew with such force that the whole body of the coach trembled and swayed, rocking between the high wheels like a drunken man.
    The driver, muffled （裹住） in a greatcoat to his ears, bent almost double in his seat in a faint endeavor to gain shelter from his own shoulders. The few passengers pressed together for warmth, exclaiming all together when the coach sank into a heavier rut （车辙） than usual, and one old fellow, who had kept up a constant complaint ever since he had joined the coach at Truro, rose from his seat in anger; and, feeling with the window – frame, let the window down with a crash, bringing a shower of rain upon himself and his fellow – passengers. He thrust his head out and shouted up to the driver, scolding him in a angry voice for a rogue and a murderer; that they would all be dead before they reached Bodmin if he persisted in driving at dangerous speed; they had no breath left in their bodies as it was, and he would never travel by coach again.
    41．What is the main image the author gives in this description?
    A．In terrible weather, a coach was running fast in mud with complaining passengers on it.
    B．On a cold and rainy day the coach broke and the driver was repairing it on the road.
    C．On a cold night the driver and the passengers felt very cold and struggled in the rain.
    D．The bad condition of the road resulted in the bad mood of the passengers.
    42．Which of the following is correct according to the text?
    A．The windows were tightly closed, so the cold air was kept outside the coach.
    B．The spot of ink stained leather, so the seats felt damp to the hands.
    C．Most probably the roof of the coach was broken.
    D．There was a drunken man swaying constantly on the coach.
    43．The expression “muffled in a greatcoat to… his own shoulders” implies         .
    A．the driver felt very cold and tried to change his seat
    B．the driver felt comfortable by doing in that way
    C．The driver felt very cold and tried to gain warmth
    D．The driver tried to protect his ears and shoulders
    44．We can learn from the text that         .
    A．the coach was running slowly due to the bad weather
    B．an old passenger who got on the coach at Truro was angry about the windows
    C．one of the passengers on the coach was a murderer
    D．the few passengers let out exclamations as the coach moved violently

    Do you want to live another 100 years or more? Some experts say that scientific advances will
    one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span.
    “ I think we are knocking at the door of immortality (永生),” said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. “ I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate.”
    At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past. “ There is a great push so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,” he said. “ Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”
    However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.
    Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. “ It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?” said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Center. “ At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.”
    67. By saying “ we are knocking at the door immortality”, Michael Zey means_____.
    A. they believe that there is no limit of living
    B. they are sure to find the truth about long living
    C. they have got some ideas about living forever
    D. they are able to make people live past the present life span
    68. Donald Louria’s attitude toward long living is that_____.
    A. people can live from 120 to 180
    B. it is still doubtful how long humans can live
    C. the human body is designed to last about 120 years
    D. it is possible for humans to live longer in the future
    69. The underlined “ it” (Para. 4) refers to_____.
    A. a great push
    B. the idea of living beyond the present life span
    C. the idea of living from 200 to 300
    D. the conservative estimate
    70. What would be the best title for this text?
    A. Living longer or not
    B. Science, technology and long living
    C. No limit for human life
    D. Healthy lifestyle and long living

    D
    The future of agriculture must achieve several goals at the same time.
    First, it now appears that we will have to double world food production in the next 40 years due to population growth, increasing meat consumption and pressure from biofuels (生物燃料). We will also have to reduce the environmental impacts from our farming practices, which have caused widespread damage to soils, ecosystems, waters and even the atmosphere. In fact, agriculture’s impacts are as bad as climate change as an environmental concern. Besides, we will have to improve food security for the world’s poor. While the Green Revolution of the 1960s made it possible to feed hundreds of millions more people than in earlier eras, the number of the under-nourished in the world has started to rise again. Finally, we will have to increase the recovering ability of agriculture from shocks. Today, our high-efficiency, globalized world has many benefits, but it is vulnerable (易受伤的) to destruction, whether from droughts, diseases or sudden price rises. We must start building better food systems to better keep us away from future shocks.
    Currently, there are two models of agriculture: local and organic agriculture vs. globalized and industrialized agriculture. Each has been strongly supported and severely criticized, but neither of these models, standing alone, can fully meet our needs.
    Organic agriculture teaches us important lessons about soils, nutrition and pest management. Unfortunately, organic food provides less than 1% of the world’s calories, mostly to the wealthy. It is hard to imagine organic farming developing to feed 9 billion. Globalized and industrialized agriculture has benefits of high output and low labor demands. Without it, billions of people would have starved. However, it has come with enormous environmental and social costs, which cannot be sustained.
    Rather than voting for just one solution, we need a third way to solve the crisis. Let’s take ideas from both sides, creating new, hybrid solutions that increase production, save resources and build a more sustainable agriculture.
    There are many promising avenues to pursue. A new “third way” for agriculture is not only possible but also necessary. Our problems are huge, and they will require everyone at the table, working together toward solutions.
    53. How many goals of agriculture are mentioned in the passage?
    A. Three           B. Four            C. Five             D. Six
    54. Which is true according to the passage?
    A. Organic agriculture can feed most people in the world now.
    B. Industrialized agriculture does no harm to our environment.
    C. Modern farming is criticized while organic farming is not.
    D. The future agriculture can’t only depend on organic agriculture.
    55. We can learn from the passage that _______.
    A. everyone can afford to enjoy organic food at will
    B. we will vote to decide which farming system to take
    C. the writer is quite optimistic about future agriculture
    D. only experts can find a better agricultural solution
    56. What’s the best title for the passage?
    A. Organic Agriculture Vs. Industrialized Agriculture.          
    B. The Goals of Future Agriculture and Its Way Out.      
    C. A Third Possible and Necessary Way for Agriculture.
    D. Modern Globalized and Industrialized Agriculture.

    B
    The following are the results of the tests done by “Family and Home Magazine” on some Pocket Tape-Recorders on the market now.
    Pearlcorder S702 $64
    This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording. Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible, but it doesn’t turn off automatically.
    Tape length: 30minutes per side. Weight: 240g.
    Sony M9   $49.95
    Small and very good looking, Sony’s latest offering scored most for its appearance. Sounds clear, but there is slight machine noise. The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders. It doesn’t switch off automatically, but a red light shows if the machine is still running.
    Tape length: 60minutes per side. Weight: 195g.
    Sony M400  $115
    Lots of little control buttons that make a noise are difficult to use. Recording is good but machine noise loses points. Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.
    Tape length: 60 minutes per side. Weight: 230g.
    Imperial OEM MC7  $ 29.95
    Cheap and simple compared with the rest, but recording is good as long as there is no background noise. Use only its own-make of cassette. No light to show it is on; no fast-forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.
    Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight: 285g.
    Philips 585  $80
    Handsome and simple to use, but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation. No recording light.
    Tape length: 15 minutes per side. Weight: 220g.
    46. The machine that produces the best recording with the least unwanted noise is __.
    A. Pearlcorder S 702     B. Sony M9
    C. Sony M400          D. Imperial OEM MC7
    47. If you want a machine which turns off automatically and weighs very little you should choose _____.
    A. Pearlcorder S 702   B. Sony M9  C. Sony M400  D. Philips 585
    48. Which of the following allows you to record longest but costs you least?
    A. Philips 585   B. Imperial OEM MC7  C. Sony M400   D. Sony M9

    The questions of what children learn, and how they should learn it, is continually being debated and reheated. Nobody dares any longer to defend the old system, the parrot – fashion (way of learning by repeating what others say) of learning lessons, the grammar with a whip system，which was good enough for our grandparents．The theories of modern psychology have stepped into argue that we must understand the needs of children．Children are not just small adults；they are children who must be respected as such．
    Well，you may say，this is as it should be，and a good idea．But think further．What happens?
    ‘Education’ becomes the responsibility not of teachers, but of psychologists．What happens then? Teachers worry too much about the psychological implications of their lessons，and forget about the subjects themselves．If a child dislikes a lesson，the teacher feels that it is his fault，not the child’s. So teachers worry whether history is ‘relevant’ to modem young children．And do they dare to recount stories about violent battles? Or will this make the children themselves violent? Can they tell their classes about children of different races，or will this encourage racial hatred? Why teach children to write grammatical sentences? Verbal expression is better．Sums? Arithmetic? No：real—life mathematical situations are more understandable．
    You see．you can go too far．Influenced by educational theorists，who have nothing better to do than write books about their ideas，teachers leave their teacher—training colleges filled with grand，psychological ideas about children and their needs. They make complicated preparations and try out their ‘modern methods’ on the long – suffering children. Since one ‘modern method’ rapidly replaces another, the poor kids will have well been fed up by the time they leave school. frequently the modern methods are so complicated that they fail to be understood by the teachers, let alone the children; even more often, the relaxed discipline so necessary for the ‘informal’ feeling the class must have, prevents all but a handful of children from learning anything.
    63．Under the old system, children were           .
    A．made to learn passively                        B．good enough to their grandparents
    C．made to learn actively                          D．understood and respected by teachers
    64．What happens when teachers pay too much attention to the psychological implications during a lesson?
    A．They find that children dislike the lessons.
    B．They worry too much about history, stories, racial hatred, grammar and arithmetic.
    C．They don’t pay enough attention to what students are learning.
    D．They tend to blame students for their failure in teaching.
    65．How do you understand the underlined sentence at the end of the passage?
    A．Children will learn well in a relaxed classroom atmosphere.
    B．Few children will actually learn when there is no discipline.
    C．Relaxed discipline is necessary for children to develop.
    D．No children will learn anything without strict discipline.
    66．What is the author’s attitude toward the theories of modern psychology?
    A．Indifferent (不关心的).                       B．Tolerant (容忍的).
    C．Supportive (支持的).                           D．Critical (批评的).

    C.
    Here are two letters from our readers expressing their concern about school assessment (评价):
    (l)
    Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades (学习成绩). Fortunately, most educators realize that students have different interests and abilities. However, grade-based assessment is still very common. Grades often hold back creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to go in for music, drama and sports. Grades are also an unfair measure of a student’s ability. I do not demand, as some extremists do, that grades should no longer be recorded. However, I do believe that less importance should be placed on. grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional(可选择的) at Village High School.
    Magdalena Smith, President
    Drama Club
    (2)
    Let’s face the facts about grades. Grades perform three basic functions( 功能). First, grades get students to work at their highest level of competence  (能力 ). Second, they act as an encouragement for hard-working students and as a warming to those who are not. Finally, grades are an effective standard by which to measure students' achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university.
    I've spoken with a number of students who have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired mainly because of their grades. My grades helped me get a part-time job and will help me into university next year. I think grades are extremely important at Village High School.
