The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to    1  students’ strong interest in computers?

Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different     2  giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is     3  about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology.    4  ,?views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success     5  whether they can make use of computers effectively.

Let’s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see    6  difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present,20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. In other words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese-language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject    7  .In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know the    8  that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it     9  to see the policy through.

Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to    10  the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.

Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools    11  IT learning has just started. All teachers—including the seniors who are very     12  in teaching, but who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers will have to    13  from the very beginning. They will become    14  and their teaching performances may be badly affected. The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have     15  all schools to complete the given work. A hard-pressed teacher may put the daily teaching     16  or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then    17  the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his    18  through the computer before class comes to an end in order to “complete” his IT learning    19  .   20   the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students’ level of Chinese, pass on common values and so on? I am not so sure.

The prestigious (久负盛名) Peking University and Tsinghua University held graduation ceremonies on the same day this year. The presidents of the two universities delivered excellent speeches at the ceremonies as they used words, phrases or ways of expression that are very popular on the Internet currently. At the same time, graduation speeches by other university presidents were also under the spotlight for the same reason. Their speeches were warmly welcomed by students as they contained many fashionable words today, such as "floating clouds" ( meaning "too small and of little importance to mention") and "gelivable" (meaning " very helpful") . In the speeches , these university presidents recalled campus life together with students and finally moved all the audiences. They were very different from the usual run of lectures.
Many university presidents have changed their regular manner of addressing graduation ceremonies from an advising and preaching (说教) mode to a more fashionable and funny approach. They try to use those words popular among young people in their speeches.
In the past, university presidents' speeches were criticized for being too standard and lacking sentiment. Now , they quote fashionable words in their addresses, reflecting they are starting to adopt more everyday attitudes to students. The use of these new expressions has triggered a heated discussion. It focuses on the question of whether university presidents should speak in an informal way at graduation ceremonies.
Supporters agree with the new approach. They consider it good to build close ties with students by using the youth's own words. Opponents argue the new ways have no practical value or significance for education but are merely to please those leaving university.

New evidence shows that getting enough Vitamin D may be the most important thing you can do for your health．

You know the usual prescription for good health: a balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, regular exercise, no smoking．Now add this: Spend a little more time in the sun．

    Huh? That may sound like medical heresy （反面观点）．After all, we've been warned for decades about the dangers of the sun: wrinkles, age spots and the increasing threat of skin cancer．But new and impressive medical evidence suggests that sunlight is beneficial．The vitamin D it prompts our bodies to make may prevent cancer, protect against heart disease and ward off a long list of disorders such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes and gum disease．It is even showing promise as a treatment for heart disease and some cancers．

    Long recognized as vitally important for bone building （it's needed for calcium absorption）, vitamin D has now achieved superstar status among nutrients．While all doctors may not agree, many experts are confident enough of its wide-ranging powers to urge that we get much more of it, from the sun and from supplements, as even the best diet in the world may not give us enough．

60．Which of the following is NOT the usual way of keeping healthy?

     A．To do exercise now and then．

     B．To eat plenty of fruits and vegetables．

     C．To avoid staying in the sun for a long time．

     D．To keep away from cigarettes．

61．What does the underlined word “prompts” in the third paragraph mean?

     A．causes              B．forces          C．motivates    D．encourages

62．According to the passage, vitamin D ________．

     A．can be got by doing regular exercise

     B．can be used to prevent some cancers

     C．can be got from the sunlight

     D．can be used to remove the wrinkles

63．The passage is most likely from a（an） ________．
