8．Because  phones have caused many problems，many headteachers have ordered that pupils keep their phones switched off at school．Others have told pupils to leave them at home．However，Dr．Elizabeth Hartnell-Young at University of Nottingham believes it is time that phone bans were reassessed，because mobile phones can be a powerful learning aid，they said．
"At the start of the study，even pupils were often surprised at the thought that mobile phones could be used for learning，"Dr．Hartnell-Young said．"After their hands-on experience，almost all pupils said they had enjoyed the project and felt more motivated．"Some teachers also had to reassess their views．"Using this technology gives them more freedom to express themselves without needing to be constantly supervised （管理）．"one said．
    Other teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained most from the project．However，they recognized that greater use of mobile phones in schools could prove problematical．Increased temptation （誘惑） to steal phones was one worry．"I thought，well，four of these smartphones are going to end up on e-BAY tomorrow，"one teacher said．A few teachers remained concerned that phones could prove a distraction （分心） for some pupils．Allowing pupils to access school emails via mobiles would also bring risks it pass-words were shared，they said．
    Dr．Hartnell-Young says that the teachers'worries are understandable．"While the eventual aim should be to lift blanket bans on phones we do not recommend immediate，whole-school change，"she said，"Instead we believe that teachers，students and the wider community should work together to develop policies that will enable this powerful new learning tool to be used safely．We hope that，in future，mobile phone use will be as natural as using any other technology in school．"
49．Which of the following is probably closest in meaning to the underlined word"problematical"in Paragraph 3？B
    A．Illegal．B．Troublesome．C．Reasonable．D．Valuable．
50．Some teachers support the ban because they think greater use of mobile phones will bring some worries EXCEPTC．
    A．it will cause pupils not to concentrate on their study
    B．some pupils will steal phones and sell it online
    C．it will cause pupils to lack confidence
    D．sharing the passwords will bring some risks to the school
51．Dr．Hartnell-Young probably thinksD．
    A．schools should make immediate changes to lift the ban
    B．it is not necessary for teachers to worry about the larger use of mobile phones in school
    C．it won't be natural for teachers to use phones in school
    D．work should be done together to ensure mobile phones come into class as a teaching aid
52．Which of the following can be the best title of this passage？A 
    A．Mobile Phones as a Teaching Aid      B．Problems Caused by Mobile Phones

分析 本文講述了手機(jī)作為一種工具可以用來輔助教學(xué)，但是手機(jī)也帶來了很多問題，引起了老師和家長的擔(dān)憂，下面看看專家怎么來說吧．

解答 49．答案 B 詞義猜測題  根據(jù) However，they recognized that greater use of mobile phones in schools couldprove problematical．句意是然而，他們承認(rèn)在學(xué)校手機(jī)更多的用途可能是會帶來問題．此處problematical是problem的形容詞形式，意思是"有問題的"，A 違法的  B 麻煩的  C．合情合理的  D貴重的，由此可知 B意思相近，故答案為 B
50．答案 C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題  從第三段可以得知，Increased temptation （誘惑） to steal phones，a distraction （分心） for some pupils，bring risks it pass-words 這三方面是老師的擔(dān)憂，而根據(jù)Other teachers found that pupils who lacked confidence gained mostfrom the project．可知，手機(jī)的使用可以增加學(xué)生的自信，故答案為C
51．答案 D 歸納判斷題  根據(jù)最后一段Dr．Hartnell-Youngsaid，"Insteadwe believe that teachers，students and the wider community should work together to developpolicies that will enable this powerful new learning tool to be usedsafely"，可知，學(xué)校與社會應(yīng)該協(xié)同合作來確保手機(jī)作為好的助手而被學(xué)生所使用，故答案為D
52．答案 A  主旨大意題  根據(jù)第一段mobile phones can be a powerfullearning aid及下文的敘述，可知本文主要講了手機(jī)作為一種工具可以用來輔助教學(xué)，故答案為A

18．Prison Break《越獄》is a huge hit thanks to its great star，Wentworth Miller．His character，Michael Scofield，is the engine that drives the show．
    The movie involves two brothers：one has been sentenced to death for a crime，and the other plans to help his brother escape prison．Michael Scofield is one of the most interesting personalities on television today．But what about the man behind the character？
    Miller，35，is a hard guy to get known．He does not come from a normal background and has never lived his life in a typical way．
    Miller didn't take a direct path to fame and fortune．He graduated from Princeton University in 1995，not with a degree in theatre or film，but in English．He didn't even act when he was in college．His only performance experience was in his university's singing group．Yet，at graduation Miller still decided to make the move to Hollywood．

    Following his unusual path，Miller did not start trying out for films and TV shows when he first got to Hollywood．Instead，he worked as a lowly production assistant．Not what you would expect from a Princeton graduate．However，it all paid off for Miller in the end．
    In 2002，Miller played a role in the drama Dinotopia．He starred as a thoughtful and shy man．Producers remembered his performance when they were casting Prison Break two years later．With a golden globe nomination（提名）and another season of Prison Break on his resume（履歷），Miller seems ready to take over all of Hollywood．

56．What kind of man do you think Wentworth Miller is？A
A．Determined．
B．Ordinary．
C．Fortunate．
D．Thoughtful．
57．The author thinks"Miller is a hard guy to get known"because D．

B．it's difficult to tell him from others
C．he always has ideas hard for people to understand
D．his family background and life experience are very special
58．What's the closest meaning of the underlined sentence"it all paid off for Miller in the end"？D
A．Miller put a lot of effort for his final success．
B．Miller had to pay a lot of money for his graduation．
C．Miller paid off all the money he owed to others finally．
D．Miller finally succeeded and gained his reputation at last．
59．Which of the following is put in the right order？A
a．Miller did not act in any of the films or TV shows in Hollywood．
b．Miller worked as a lowly production assistant．
c．Miller played a role in the drama"Dinotopia"．
d．Miller joined in his university's singing group．
A．dabc                 B．a(chǎn)bcd                 C．bacd               D．dcba
60．Which of the following statements is TRUE？B
A．Miller had lots of movie performance experiences when he was in college．
B．Miller succeeded in the field that he has never majored in．
C．Miller was chosen to play a role in Prison Break because he is a thoughtful and shy guy．

16．In 1974，the price of petrol in Britain rose by 120percent； cars became expensive to run and train and bus fares increased．People who hadn't used a bicycle since they were children decided that they would buy bicycles．They discovered that cycling could be enjoyable and cheap．
Bicycle sales had been falling for many years but suddenly everything changed．In 1975，British people spent more than one million on bicycles．Bicycle traffic increased by 11percent．
Bicycle fans compare the cost of running a car with the cost of running a bicycle．They also say bicycle-riding is a good form of exercise．In towns bicycles can often be faster than cars or buses．The bicyclists can ride through traffic jams and at the end of his journey he doesn't have to look for a parking space．Cycling through the countryside is a real pleasure； the cyclist has time to see things that the motorist，driving at over 100kilometers an hour，never sees．
But in the cities，cycling can be dangerous．You need good concentration（專心）and strong nerves，especially when a truck or a bus is trying to pass you．Since cycling became popular again，there has been an increase in the number of accidents．
Cyclists say the answer to the problem is to separate bicycles from other traffic．Stevenage，a new town near London，has a system of"bikeways"，where only bicycles are allowed to travel．However，in most towns，cyclists say，the needs of the bicycle riders are overlooked．Cyclists have formed into"action groups"in many towns in Britain．They want to persuade local councils-who are in charge of the roads and traffic in their areas-to make sure there are safe facilities（設(shè)施）for cyclists．Or，they say，interest in cycling will die．

12．Today the Britain want to ride bikes becauseB．
A．trains and buses are too crowded
B．the cost of riding bikes is much cheaper than that of taking trains or buses
C．there are a lot of thieves on the trains or in the buses
D．the traffic accidents easily happen while people go to work by train or by bus
13．What is special about traffic in Britain today？A
A．More and more people ride bikes．
B．More and more people like to take trains．
C．Taking trains is much safer than taking buses．
D．No people like to take buses．
14．The main reason for so many people's riding bikes in England is thatA．

3．Perhaps you're someone who lined up all of your dolls，action figures，and stuffed animals in front of a mini-chalkboard when you were a kid．You read to them and taught them how to solve math problems．Maybe when older，you became an after-school tutor and thought，"Hey，I'd like to do that full-time．"
The inspiration to become a teacher hits some people when they're young while others become teachers later in life．Whether you want to study to be a teacher right out of high school or you change from another career into teaching，the best teachers share a few things in common．Of course，teachers have to have at least an undergraduate degree，and many districts require teachers to earn a graduate teaching degree．Many school districts have begun requiring a master's degree．However，on top of education，good teachers also display some common characteristics that help to inspire and motivate their students．
Some teachers prefer to teach in a very structured style while others prefer assigning group work，encouraging class discussions，and letting students do independent projects．Both types of teachers can be very well-organized as long as they have a reason for what they do and they've carefully planned their lessons．If you're good at making material not only fun but memorable and if you can present it in a brief way，then you probably have the organizational skills to become a teacher．
Great teachers know the subjects that they teach inside and out．They can explain the history，current developments，and future trends of the subjects．Also，they understand the basic theories of their fields．Elementary school teachers need to have command of various subjects，while middle school and high school teachers usually focus on a single subject area and they develop in-depth knowledge of that subject．
If you decide to become a teacher，you should commit to learning everything that you can while in high school and college．You also should develop good study habits that allow you to remember information about your field．
31．The underlined part"do that"in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by"A"：
A．work as a teacher    
B．solve math problems  
C．work as a tutor 
D．take care of kids
32．The passage tells us that the basic requirement of being a teacher isB
A．a(chǎn)n inspiration in an early age     
B．a(chǎn)n undergraduate degree
C．a(chǎn) graduate teaching degree             
D．a(chǎn)n experience of top education
33．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about？D
A．Different teachers'hobbies
B．Different types of teachers．
C．Teachers'well-planned lessons
D．Teachers'organizational skills．
34．According to the passage，a person who wants to become a teacher shouldC．
A．be able to explain the history of different subjects
B．be clear about the future trend of teachers
C．make good preparations in schools and colleges
D．have a command of many kinds of subjects
35．Which is the best title for the passage？B
A．The Inspiration To Become A Teacher     
B．What It Takes To Be A Good Teacher
C．The Future Of A Good Teacher           
D．College Courses For Teachers．

A wolf was almost dead with hunger．A housedog saw him，and asked，"Friend，your irregular life will soon ruin you"．Why don't you work steadily as I do，and get your food regularly？""I would have no objection，"said the wolf，"if I could only get a place．""I will help you，"said the dog．"Come with me to my master，and you shall share my work．"So the wolf and the dog went to the town together．On the way the wolf saw that there was no hair around the dog's neck．He felt quite surprised，and asked him why it was like that？"Oh，it is nothing，"said the dog．"Every night my master puts a collar around my neck and chains me up．You will soon get used to it．""Is that the only reason？"said the wolf．"Then good-bye to you，my friend．I would rather be free．"
B
Two men were traveling together，when a bear suddenly met them on their path．One of them climbed up quickly into a tree and concealed himself in the branches．The other，seeing that he must be attacked，fell flat on the ground，and when the Bear came up and felt him with his snout，and smelt him all over，he held his breath，and feigned the appearance of death as much as he could．The Bear soon left him，for it is said he will not touch a dead body．When he was quite gone，the other Traveler descended from the tree，and jocularly inquired of his friend what it was the Bear had whispered in his ear．"He gave me this advice，"his companion replied．"Never travel with a friend who deserts you at the approach of danger．"
C
A prince had some monkeys trained to dance．Being naturally good at learning，they showed themselves excellent pupils，and in their rich clothes and masks，they danced as well as any of the courtiers．Their performance was often repeated with great applause，till on one occasion a courtier，bent on mischief，took from his pocket a handful of nuts and threw them upon the stage．The monkeys at the sight of the nuts forgot their dancing and became （as indeed they were） monkeys instead of actors．Pulling off their masks and tearing their robes，they fought with one another for the nuts．The dancing spectacle thus came to an end in the laughter and ridicule of the audience．
D
A cock was once strutting up and down the farmyard among the hens when suddenly he noticed something shining in the straw．"Ho!ho!"said he，"that's for me，"and soon rooted it out from beneath the straw．It turned out to be a pearl that by some chance had been lost in the yard．"You may be a treasure，"signed the cock，"to man，but for me I would rather have a single barley-corn．"
E
Lion was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face．Rising up in anger，he caught him and was about to kill him，when the Mouse piteously entreated，saying："If you would only spare my life，I would be sure to repay your kindness．"The Lion laughed and let him go．It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters，who bound him by strong ropes to the ground．The Mouse，recognizing his roar，came up，and gnawed the rope with his teeth，and setting him free，exclaimed："You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you，not expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favour； but now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a Lion．"
F
An old man on the point of death summoned his sons around him to give them some parting advice．He ordered his servants to bring in a bunch of sticks，and said to his eldest son："Break it．"The son tried hard，but with all his efforts was unable to break the bundle．The other sons also tried，but none of them was successful．"Untie it，"said the father，"and each of you take a stick．"When they had done so，he called out to them："Now，break，"and each stick was easily broken．
