But the way to test a stude
23、nts knowledge and ability still remains as poor as it was. We have almost done nothing to improve our examination system. It is well known that the examination system we are now using may be a good way of testing a students memory, but it can tell you nothing about a students ability. It does no goo
24、d to students and teachers. As soon as a child begins school, he enters a world of examination that will decide his future job.

25、es not enable them to gain more new knowledge. The students who come out first in the examination often may not be the best in their studies. Besides, the examinations often force teachers to train students what to do with the coming examination from time to time. There must be some simpler and bett
26、er way to test a students ability besides knowledge.

29、ting examination system improvedB.taking examinationsC.testing a students knowledgeD.working hard at all lessonsBPeople today expect to be examined when they enter a doctors office. At least they expect their blood pressure and temperature to be measured. However, as recently as two hundred years ag
30、o, a doctors treatment depended on talking with patients. In general, the communication between doctors and their patients was the most important part of medical methods. The modem age of medicine began with the stethoscope, an instrument for listening to patients heartbeat and breathing. Before tha
31、t, a doctor did not touch a patient. In fact, there was no such thing as a medical examination. The stethoscope-with all other medical instruments-has a serious effect on the practice of medicine. Doctors become better at finding the medical problems. More lives are saved. At the same time, doctors
32、give less importance to the communication between patients and doctors. Some doctors actually stop talking to their patients. It is easy to understand why some sick people thought themselves as broken machines.（分数：3.00）(1).A stethoscope can be used to_.（分数：1.00）A.check health conditionsB.cure some i

35、inesD.they were not satisfied with the manner in which doctors treated themCAlthough the womens rights movement in the United States is thought of as a recent development, its beginnings date back over one hundred and seventy years. At that time women were dependents in the eyes of the law, and they
36、 did not have the rights of adults. A woman had no property rights, even over what she had got it from her mother or father or over any wages that she earned. Decisions about family matters and about the children were made by her husband, the “head of the family“. The first public protests(请愿) again
37、st the low position of women were made in the 1830s. In 1848 the leaders of this movement( some of whom were for antislavery(反对奴隶制) activities as well) assembled the first Womens Rights Convention, demanding equality. In this struggle as well as in the long, hard fight for womens vote, those who too
38、k part in the activities were laughed at and insulted(侮辱). They were said to be immoral(违反伦理的), and their ideas were considered dangerous to society. Nevertheless by 1900 women had won the right to vote in several states; and in 1920 the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution granted them the righ
39、t to vote throughout the United States. By the time many women were attending college, and increasing numbers were entering professions which had before been forbidden to women. A little number of women even held high academic and government positions. In spite of all this progress, “career women“ w
40、ere largely restricted(限制)to teaching, nursing, and office work. The womens Liberation movement, which developed during the 1960s, has focused on economic fights such as “equal pay for equal work“. In addition some groups have stressed psychological and social equality. The main purpose of Womens Li
41、beration to free women from the restrict-ed role which society has given to them. It seeks to enable them to choose between a career and the home or to choose the two. It claims that society as a whole would benefit if every person was al-lowed to develop his or her abilities and use them to the ful
42、l. Womens Liberation believes that the statement in the United States Declaration of Independence, “all men are created equal“ really means “all human beings are created equal“.（分数：5.00）(1).We know from this passage that _over one hundred seventy years ago.（分数：1.00）A.no women worked outside their ho
43、mesB.women were considered as children by the lawC.women cared nothing about how their family lives wereD.women were not allowed to decide how to spend their money or how to teach children(2).The underlined word “assemble“ in the second paragraph probably means_.（分数：1.00）A.to bring a group of people
44、 together in one place for a particular purposeB.to make a public or official statement, especially about a plan, decisionC.to produce many copies of a book, magazine, or newspaperD.not to take part in an event or not to buy or use something as a protest(3).Which of the following statements is incor
