It can also bring long-lasting rewards, especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting ones opinion and supporting
9、 it with evidence, such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication. Charles Lebeau helped create the “Discover Debate“ method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion, reasons an
10、d support. “What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact (交流) with someone elses opinion, rather than brush their opinion aside.“ Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, the judges are the customers
11、. “So on Monday, for example, one company may come in and present their case to the customer and theyll make as strong a case as they can. On Tuesday, the next day, another company will come in and present their case to the customer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins. “ Deba
12、te also strengthens critical thinking. In other words, it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someones reasons and evidence. Mr. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying. Then, they look for the weak points in someon
13、e elses opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning. Successful debaters also learn to think from someone elses point of view. Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. “Theres an expression in English: dont criticize another person before you have walked in t
14、heir shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, it puts us in another persons shoes.“（分数：8.00）(1).According to Paragraph 1, what is the purpose of debate?（分数：2.00）A.To bring long-lasting material rewards.B.To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C.To respond to questions in a syste

17、s methods.We all love a hero, and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, riskingand at times losingtheir lives in the process. Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional
18、 Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinoisall of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability. These types al
19、so have a keen sense of hearing and smellto better locate lost individualsand are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking. To overcome obstacles and succ
20、eed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance. A strong sense of group cooperat
21、ion and an ability to engage in friendly play during “down“ time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs. A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted . Certification training can take from two to three years, working t
22、hree to four hours a day, three to six days a week, often in group, team-oriented sessions. Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training, for instance, includes “air scenting“where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victims scent (气味) and then follow the
23、scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.（分数：8.00）(1).Rescue dogs are chosen probably because _.（分数：2.00）A.they are loyalB.they are braveC.they have amazing appearancesD.they have good eyesight(2).What does “faint-hearted“ in Pa

Thats according to a new study that investigate
26、s whether theres any truth in the old saying. A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing, asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The
27、 remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year, the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs. Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumpt
28、ion, though. “Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications,“ the study concludes. Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have
29、 a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14%
30、your daily recommended intake. Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病), improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.（分数：8.00）(1).How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?（分数：2.00）A.149.B.7,646.C.753.D.

32、earn from the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Apples are better than oranges.B.Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C.Apples can help cure certain diseases.D.Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.(4).What can be described as the writing style of this passage?（分数：
33、2.00）A.Objective.B.Creative.C.Subjective.D.Persuasive.Sometimes I scratch my head when I read about the governments efforts to improve schools: new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees, not to
34、 mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideaswhich is what fear does to usresearch on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago
35、public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships. Trust in schools comes down to one thing: psychological safety or safety to speak ones mind, to
36、 discuss with openness and honesty what is and isnt working, to make collective decisions. Yet this kind of safety doesnt come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider, the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity (正直). The challenge is that our exp
37、ectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds. At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about how much extra effort teachers should put into their worka big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening. A
38、nd when expectations are unconscious or unspoken, it becomes impossible for others to live up to them. We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a persons behavior. As we all know, assumptions are often wrong. For example, parents and teachers may think the principal made a particular dec
39、ision based on his career advancement rather than whats best for the students. If we dont feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations, trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.（分数：8.00）(1).According to Paragraph 1, why does the author scratch his head?（分数：2.
40、00）A.Because he doesnt know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the governments reform efforts.(2).According to Bryk and Schneider, wh
41、at was most important for successful school improvement?（分数：2.00）A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.(3).What is meant by trust in school?（分数：2.00）A.Freedom to express ones views.B.Extra effort t
42、eachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.(4).What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a persons behavior?（分数：2.00）A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.Th
43、ey should be encouraged.An interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world. The people in the live regions in Europe, Latin America, Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them.
44、 Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties, tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise. As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, as described in author Dan Buettners latest book, The Blue Zones Solution, we were struck by how e
45、ssential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact, Buettners Blue Zones Beverage Rulea kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these placesis: “Drink coffee for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, wine at 5 p.m.“ Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green t
46、ea. Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea, as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break 100? Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke, heart disease and several cancers. One review study also found that drinking gree
47、n tea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢). If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean, you wont be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themse
48、lves that dayeither rosemary, wild sage, oregano, marjoram, mint or dandelion, all plants that may have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) properties, which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikarias very low dementia (痴呆) rate, since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.（分数：8.00
