11.The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past.With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone,writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (懷舊的)skill.However,while today's educators are using more and more technology in their teaching,many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.
Virginia Berninger,professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington,says it's important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.
Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand.The study,published in 2009,found that when writing with a pen and paper,participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.
In a more recent study,Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student's writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write."Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary,word meaning and concepts.It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas."Berninger said.
Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(轉(zhuǎn)換)"those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,"the study said.Seeing the words in the"mind's eye"helps children not only to turn their ideas into words,says Berninger,but also to spot(發(fā)現(xiàn)) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.
"In our computer age,some people believe that we don't have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,"she said."But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level,they won't have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer."
28.What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?B
A.The absence of blackboard in classroom      
B.The use of new technologies in teaching.
C.The lack of practice in handwriting.
D.The popular use of smartphones.
29.Berninger's study published in 2009A.
A.focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.
B.indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.
C.found that good essays are made up of long sentences.
D.discussed the importance of writing speed.
30.What does"mind's eye"in paragraph 5 mean?D
A.Window.B.Soul   C.Picture.D.Imagination.
31.What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?C
A.Computers can help people with their choice of words.
B.Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.
C.Handwriting still has a place in today's classrooms.
D.Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.

分析 本文主要講述的是:隨著現(xiàn)代科技的發(fā)展,書寫漸漸被人們所忽視.但是Berninger的研究表明,書寫在現(xiàn)代教學(xué)中應(yīng)該占有一席之地.加強(qiáng)拼寫有助于學(xué)生的發(fā)展.

解答 28.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段"With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone,writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (懷舊的)skill."可知隨著像電腦和智能手機(jī)的使用,書寫已經(jīng)成為了人們懷舊的東西.故答案選B.
29.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第三段首句"Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand."可知Berninger和她的同事做了個(gè)研究,想看看學(xué)生用電腦和用手工完成各種寫的任務(wù)的情況.故答案選A.
30.D.詞義猜測(cè)題.根據(jù)第五段中"Seeing the words in the"mind's eye"helps children not only to turn their ideas into words,but also to notice spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time."可知用內(nèi)心去看這些單詞,不僅能幫助學(xué)生們將思想變成文字,而且也能注意到拼寫的錯(cuò)誤和正確的書寫.聯(lián)系本意:思想的眼睛則為想像之意.故選D
31.C.主旨大意題.根據(jù)第一段特別是最后一句中"many believe handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful--both in school and in life."句意:有許多人相信寫作技能在學(xué)校與生活中依然有必要學(xué)的.和文章的最后一段,首段說明隨著新技術(shù)的到來,手寫已經(jīng)成為過去,之后文章中部提到手寫的好處,最后一段進(jìn)一步闡明書寫的重要.故答案選C.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)科教類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語(yǔ)句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).

How long has 3-D technology been around? Most of us might think of crowds of teenagers in a 1950’s movie house watching Bwana Devil in 3-D. But 3-D technology made its first appearance on the scene in 1838 with the first stereoscope(體視鏡). And the first actual 3-D movie was a 1903 film called Le Ariveed’un Train.

Although it has such a long history, the technology has still remained based on one simple principle-----to make 3-D effects you must find a way to project two slightly different pictures to each eye. Modern 3-D technology works by rapidly flickering(閃動(dòng)) two versions of the movie and projecting them onto each eye. The brain does the rest of the work, combining the two pictures together into one and giving the show the appearance of depth, the third dimension.

But does this exposure, especially long exposures, cause harm to the child’s developing brain and visual system? Unfortunately, long-term studies on new flicker digital 3-D technology and children aren’t yet available. We do not know if regular or daily 3-D viewing over years affects the developing visual system, although older 3-D methods basically do the same thing and are not considered harmful.

The question of possible harm in modern 3-D use in TV is really based on two facts: the amount of time children will now be watching 3-D TV each day and the sensitivity some children show in reaction to 3-D viewing. It is difficult to make actual lab studies of longer term 3-D viewing in children because of the possible harm of the experiment. Researchers will have to wait until 3-D TV technology is already in the marketplace for a number of years, then check heavy 3-D TV watchers and compare them with non-watchers.

With a 3-D television technology in the home, we will soon be able to answer the question of whether or not longer and more frequent periods of 3-D exposure cause more changes in the visual system. We may find that the bigger problem is the introduction of a new technology that leads to even more time spent on TV rather than playing outdoors.

1.According to the text, 3-D technology ______

A. was refused by people when it first appeared.

B. will soon change the way we watch TV.

C. does no good to our visual system.

D. has a history of nearly 200 years.

2.Paragraph 2 is mainly about________

A. how 3-D technology works.

B. why 3-D movies are popular

C. the history of 3-D technology.

D. the influence of 3-D technology.

3.What’s the method suggested in paragraph 4?

A. To wait and see B. To carry out lab studies

C. To stop making 3-D movies D. To improve 3-D technology

4.The author’s purpose in writing the text is to _______

A. ask children not to watch 3-D movies

B. discuss if 3-D viewing is harmful to children.

C. introduce the advantages of 3-D technology.

D. predict the development of 3-D technology.

6.Critical Reading
Critical reading applies to non-fiction writing in which the author puts forth a position or seeks to make a statement.Critical reading is active reading.(36)E.Here are the things you should do to be a critical reader.
•Consider the context of what is written. 
You may be reading something that was written by an author from a different cultural context than yours.Or,you may be reading something written some time ago in a different time context than yours.(37)G.
•Question opinions made by the author. 
Don't accept what is written at face value.(38)C.Look for facts,examples,and statistics that provide support.Also,look to see if the author has involved the work of authorities.
•(39)A.
Assumptions are whatever the author must believe is true in order to propose opinions.However,in many cases,you must read carefully in order to identify any indirect assumption.Once you identify an assumption,you must decide whether or not the assumption is valid.
•Evaluate the sources the author uses. 
In doing this,be certain that the sources are credible as well as relevant.(40)F.For example,studies done by Einstein in the early 20th century may not be appropriate if the writer is discussing the current state of knowledge in physics.

16.While it is most sports fans'favorite part of watching their team compete,shouting out  insulting words or encouragement doesn't actually help them win matches,new research suggests.
An experiment conducted earlier this month,provided an answer accidentally to the question whether cheering does actually have an effect on either team's performance.
Originally,the study project started by Brenna Boyd,a research assistant working under a professor in the School of Architectural Engineering,aimed to settle a long-standing argument in American college football over which team has the loudest stadium.She also hoped her study would determine whether crowd noise is harmful to the communications on the field.But since she's more into hockey than football,she did her later experiment in college hockey stadiums.
Boyd and her classmates measured noise levels during college hockey games,including four played by their home team--University of Nebraska team at Omaha's Century Link Centre from November 2014through to March this year.
For the loudest game,the average loudness equivalent level in the student section was 95.5decibels(分貝)-the equivalent of hearing a jackhammer from 50feet away-with a peak of 132decibels,the equivalent of a jet engine about 100feet away.
Ms Boyd's team found that noise levels in the student section were generally louder than the others.However,when the noise levels were analyzed carefully together with events in the game,they found that there wasn't a strong connection between decibel level and goals scored by the home team."There wasn't enough data to see whether loudness was connected with how many goals they achieved during the game.And this conclusion actually attracted a lot more attention than I had expected."Said Ms Boyd.
In surveys given to the players after each match,Ms Boyd found that the majority reported that the crowd was loud but not that distracting-"about 70per cent between silent and loud"-and that the noise levels didn't prevent them from communicating with their teammates or coach while in play.

25.When Brenna Boyd was planning her project,she wanted to find outB.
A.the average loudness of noise during college hockey games
B.which college team stadium has the loudest audience
C.whether cheering affects the outcome of hockey games
D.if sound levels are strongly connected to goals achieved
26.According to this passage,Brenna BoydC.
A.is a professor at the University of Nebraska
B.enjoyed herself watching college football games
C.is surprised by the great attention her research attracted
D.a(chǎn)ttended four hockey games to measure noise levels
27.Brenna Boyd's experiment found out thatB.
A.crowd noise is harmful to the player on the field
B.college students are passionate cheering home teams
C.college hockey games are noisier than football games
D.loudness level of a jet engine is higher than a jackhammer
28.The underlined word  insulting in paragraph 1can be replaced byA.
A.offending     B.inspiring 
C.a(chǎn)musing       D.disappointing.
