Teachers e-mail parents, post
23、messages for students on online bulletin boards, and take attendance with a quick movement of a mouse.Even though we are now living in the digital age, the basic and most important element of education the human connection has not changed. Most students still need that one-on-one, teacher-student re
24、lationship to learn and to succeed. Teenagers need instruction in English, math or history, but they also want personal advice and encouragement. Kids talk with me about their families, their weekend plans, their favorite TV shows and their relationship problems. In my English and journalism classes
25、, we talk about Shakespeare and persuasive essays, but we also discuss college basketball and career choices. Students show me pictures of their rebuilt cars, their family vacations, and their newborn baby brothers. This personal connection is the vital link between teacher and student that no amoun
26、t of technology can improve upon or replace.A few years ago I had a student in sophomore English who was struggling with my class and with school in general. Although he was a humorous young man who liked to joke around, I knew his family life was far from ideal. Whenever I approached him about miss
27、ing homework or low test grades, he always had the same reply: “It doesnt matter because Im quitting school anyway. “ Even though he always said this in a half-teasing way, I knew he needed to hear my protests and my “value of a high school education“ lecture. He needed to hear this speech from me b
28、ecause I understood his family problems and he knew that I believed in him. After he left my class, he struggled through the next two years of school. But, he did finally graduate because we kept telling him to hang in there. Wed cared about him finishing school.Students rely on compassionate teache
29、rs to guide, to tutor, to listen, to laugh and to cry with them. Teachers provide the most important link in the educational process the human one.(分数:10.00)(1).The first paragraph mainly discusses _.(分数:2.00)A.the variety of modern teaching methodsB.the importance of teacher-parent relationshipsC.t
30、he importance of online contact with studentsD.the wide use of modern technology in education(2).According to the text the most important element in education is _.(分数:2.00)A.personal linkB.good instructionC.advanced technologyD.interesting discussion(3).According to the text the writer often talks
31、in class about _.(分数:2.00)A.the arrangement of school partiesB.the future of students job choicesC.the organization of school sportsD.the planning of family vacations(4).In the third paragraph the writer indicates how human connection _.(分数:2.00)A.encourages students having difficultyB.provides evid
32、ence of good teachingC.affects the use of modern technologyD.prevents students from quitting school(5).The writers attitude toward the direct teacher-student relationship is _.(分数:2.00)A.conservativeB.doubtfulC.positiveD.subjective八、Text 2(总题数:1,分数:10.00)Companies have the legal right to monitor emp
33、loyees e-mail and instant messaging. Many do, whether they warn their workers or not. Last month the University of Tennessee released the e-mail correspondence between an administrator and a married college president in which the administrator wrote of her love for him, and of her use of drugs and a
34、lcohol to deal with her unhappiness. Employers, including The New York Times and Dow Chemical, have fired workers for sending improper e-mail.But the fastest-growing area for Internet spying is the home. SpectorSoft, a leading manufacturer of spyware, at first marketed its products to parents and em
35、ployers. Sales jumped enormously, however, when the company changed its pitch to target romantic partners. “In just one day of running Spector on my home PC, I was able to identify my boyfriends true personality,“ a message on the companys website declares.What can you expect if someone puts Spector
36、Softs Spector 2.2 on your computer? It will take hundreds of records an hour of every website and e-mail that appears on your screen, and store them so that someone who is spying on you can review them later. A new product, SpectorSofts eBlaster, will send the spy detailed e-mail reports updating yo
37、ur computer activities frequently. These products keep the people being spied on totally unaware.SpectorSoft has sold 35 000 copies of its spyware, and it has only a piece of a flourishing market. WinWhatWhere, another big player, sells primarily to businesses, but what it calls the “discontented fa
38、mily member“ market has been finding WinWhatWhere. Many smaller companies have sites that sell relatively crude “key-loggers“, software that records every keystroke typed on a computer.Isnt all this spying on loved ones a little creepy? Not to SpectorSoft president Doug Fowler. “If youre in a commit
39、ted relationship and you get caught because of evidence online, as far as Im concerned you deserve to be caught,“ he says. Richard Eaton, president of WinWhatWhere, recognizes that in a perfect world users would reveal that they have placed monitoring software on a computer. But WinWhatWhere Investi
40、gator has a feature that allows it to be completely hidden. “Our customers demanded it,“ he says.(分数:10.00)(1).From the text we learn that most companies in the US _.(分数:2.00)A.forbid their employees to get online at workB.respect the online privacy of their employeesC.reveal the privacy of their em
41、ployees publiclyD.monitor the online activities of their employees(2).The future of spyware is the most promising when it comes to _.(分数:2.00)A.standardizing individual online patternsB.overseeing personal online behaviorsC.diversifying present online patternsD.regulating various online behaviors(3)
42、.Form the text we know that SpectorSofts Spector 2.2 works _.(分数:2.00)A.creativelyB.preciselyC.secretlyD.quickly(4).What might WinWhatWhere do in the future?(分数:2.00)A.Purchase small software companies.B.Turn its attention to at-home net users.C.Follow the keystrokes of computer users.D.Focus its at
43、tention on the business circles.(5).WinWhatWhere Investigator is characterized by its ability _.(分数:2.00)A.to cover its whole functioning upB.to monitor exact online behaviorsC.to reveal its existence on the computerD.to gather every piece of online information九、Text 3(总题数:1,分数:10.00)The technology
44、of the North American colonies did not differ strikingly from that of Europe, but in one respect, the colonists enjoyed a great advantage. Especially by comparison with Britain, Americans had a wonderfully plentiful supply of wood.The first colonists did not, as many people imagined, find an entire
45、continent covered by a continuous forest. Even along the Atlantic seaboard, the forest was broken at many points. Nevertheless, all sorts of fine trees abounded, and through the early colonial period, those who pushed westward encountered new forests. By the end of the colonial era, the price of woo
46、d had risen slightly in eastern cities, but wood was still extremely abundant.The availability of wood brought advantages that have seldom been appreciated. Wood was a foundation of the economy. Houses and all manner of buildings were made of wood to a degree unknown in Britain. Secondly, wood was u
47、sed as a fuel for heating and cooking. Thirdly, it was used as the source of important industrial compounds, such as potash, an industrial alkali; charcoal, a component of gunpowder, and tannic acid, used for tanning leather.The supply of wood conferred advantages but had some negative aspects as we
48、ll. Iron at that time was produced by heating iron ore with charcoal. Because Britain was so stripped of trees, she was unable to exploit her rich iron mines. But the American colonies had both iron ore and wood; iron production was encouraged and became successful. However, when Britain developed c
49、oke smelting, the colonies did not follow suit because they had plenty of wood and besides, charcoal iron was stronger than coke iron. Coke smelting led to technological innovations and was linked to the emergence of the Industrial Revolution. In the early nineteenth century, the former colonies lagged behind Britain in industrial development because their supply of wood led them to cling to charcoal iron.(分数:10.00)(1).Which of the following is a common assumption about the forests in North America during the
