22、s of people in Bangladesh drink ground water that has been polluted by naturally high levels of arsenic poison. Finding safe drinking water in that country can be a problem. However, International Development Enterprises has a low-cost answer. This non-governmental organization has developed technol
23、ogy to harvest rainwater.People around the world have been harvesting rainwater for centuries. It is a safe, dependable source of drinking water. Unlike ground water, rainwater contains no minerals or salts and is free of chemical treatments. Best of all, it is free.The rainwater harvesting system c
24、reated by International Development Enterprises uses pipes to collect water from the tops of buildings. The pipes stretch from the tops of buildings to a two-meter tall storage tank made of metal. At the top of the tank is a so called “first-flush“ device made of wire screen. This barrier prevents d
25、irt and leaves in the water from falling inside the tank.A fitted cover sits over the “first-flush“ device. It protects the water inside the tank from evaporating. The cover also prevents mosquito insects from laying eggs in the water.Inside the tank is a low coat plastic bag that collects the water
26、. The bag sits inside another plastic bag similar to those used to hold grains. The two bags are supported inside the metal tank. All total, the water storage system can hold up to 3,500 liters of water. International Development Enterprises says the inner bags may need to be replaced every two to t
27、hree years. However, if the bags are not damaged by sunlight, they could last even longer.International Development Enterprises says the water harvesting system should be built on a raised structure to prevent insects from eating into it at the bottom. The total cost to build this rainwater harvesti
28、ng system is about forty dollars. However, International Development Enterprises expects the price to drop over time. The group says one tank can provide a family of five with enough rainwater to survive a five-month dry season.(分数:6.00)(1).People in Bangladesh can use_as a safe source of drinking w
29、ater.(分数:1.00)A.ground waterB.rainwaterC.drinking waterD.fresh water(2).Which of the following contributes to the low-cost of using rainwater?(分数:1.00)A.Rainwater is free of chemical treatments.B.People have been harvesting rainwater for centuries.C.The water harvesting system is built on a platform
30、.D.Rainwater can be collected using pipes.(3).Which of the following actually prevents dirt and leaves from falling inside the tank?(分数:1.00)A.A barrier.B.A wire screen.C.A first-flush.D.A storage tank.(4).The bags used to hold water are likely to be damaged by_.(分数:1.00)A.mosquito insectsB.a fitted
31、 coverC.a first-flush deviceD.sunlight(5).What should be done to prevent insects from eating into the water harvesting system at the bottom?(分数:1.00)A.The two bags holding the water should be put inside the metal tank.B.The inner bags need to be replaced every two years.C.The water harvesting system
32、 should be built on a platform.D.A cover should be used to prevent insects from eating it.(6).The rainwater utilization is feasible mostly because it_.(分数:1.00)A.is not pollutedB.costs no moneyC.contains no minerals or saltsD.is dependable十、Passage Two(总题数:1,分数:6.00)Where one stage of child developm
33、ent has been left out, or not sufficiently experienced, the child may have to go back and capture the experience of it. A good home makes this possible, for example, by providing the opportunity for the child to play with a clockwork car or toy railway train up to any age if he still needs to do so.
34、 This principle, in fact, underlies all psychological treatment of children in difficulties with their development, and is the basis of work in child clinics.The beginnings of discipline are in the nursery. Even the youngest baby is taught by gradual stages to wait for food, to sleep and wake at reg
35、ular intervals and so on. If the child feels the world around him is a warm and friendly one, he slowly accepts its rhythm and accustoms himself to conforming to its demands. Learning to wait for things, particularly for food, is a very important element in upbringing, and is achieved successfully o
36、nly if too great demands are not made before the child can understand them.Every parent watches eagerly the childs acquisition of each new skillthe first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural lea
37、rning rate, but this can set up dangerous feeling of failure and states of anxiety in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand,
38、though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural zest for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Learning together is a fruitful source of relationship between children and parents. By playing together, parents learn more about th
39、eir children and children learn more from their parents. Toys and games which both parents and children can share are an important means of achieving this cooperation. Building-block toys, jigsaw puzzles and crossword are good examples.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness or indulgence
40、 towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters; others are severe over times of coming home at night, punctuality for meals or personal cleanliness. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the childs own
41、happiness and well-being.(分数:6.00)(1).The principle underlying all treatment of developmental difficulties in children_.(分数:1.00)A.is to send them to clinicsB.offers recapture of earlier experiencesC.is in the provision of clockwork toys and trainsD.is to capture them before they are sufficiently ex
42、perienced(2).The child in the nursery_.(分数:1.00)A.quickly learns to wait for foodB.doesnt initially sleep and wake at regular intervalsC.always accepts the rhythm of the world around themD.always feels the world around him is warm and friendly(3).The encouragement of children to achieve new skills_.
43、(分数:1.00)A.can never be taken too farB.should be left to school teachersC.will always assist their developmentD.should be balanced between two extremes(4).Jigsaw puzzles are_.(分数:1.00)A.too difficult for childrenB.a kind of building-block toyC.not very entertaining for adultsD.suitable exercises for
44、 parent-child cooperation(5).Parental controls and discipline_.(分数:1.00)A.serve a dual purposeB.should be avoided as much as possibleC.reflect the values of the communityD.are designed to promote the childs happiness(6).Which game is NOT mentioned to build co-operation between parents and children?(
45、分数:1.00)A.Building-block toys.B.PC games.C.Crossword.D.Jigsaw puzzles.十一、Passage Three(总题数:1,分数:6.00)More than half of all Jews married in U. S. since 1990 have wed people who arent Jewish. Nearly 480,000 American children under the age of ten have one Jewish and one non-Jewish parent. And, if a sur
46、vey compiled by researchers at the University of California at Los Angeles is any indication, its almost certain that most of these children will not identify themselves as “Jewish“ when they get older.That survey asked college freshmen, who are usually around age 18, about their own and their paren
47、ts religious identities. Ninety-three percent of those with two Jewish parents said they thought of themselves as Jewish. But when the father wasnt Jewish, the number dropped to 38 percent, and when the mother wasnt Jew, just 15 percent of the students said they were Jewish, too.“I think what was su
48、rprising was just how low the Jewish identification was in these mixed marriage families. “ Linda Sax is a professor of education at UCLA. She directed the survey which was conducted over the course of more than a decade and wasnt actually about religious identity specifically. But Professor Sax say
49、s the answers to questions about religion were particularly striking, and deserve a more detailed study. She says its obvious that interfaith marriage works against the development of Jewish identity among children, but says its not clear at this point why thats the case. “This new study is necessary to get more in-depth about their feelings about their religion. Thats something that the study that I completed was not able to do. We d
