25、 on ANSWER SHEET 1. 45 Americans who remember “the good old days“ are not alone in complaining about the educational system in this country. Immigrants (移民 ) complain, too.

26、ollege freshman included multiplication and division. Japanese businessmen in Los Angeles send their children to private schools staffed by teacher imported from Japan to learn mathematics at Japanese levels, generally considered at least a year more advanced than the level here. But I wonder: If Am

27、erican education is so poor, why is it that this is still the country of innovation (创新 ) ? When I was 12 in Indonesia, I had ko memorize the names of all the worlds major cities, from Kabul to Karachi. At the same age, my son, who was brought up a Californian, thought that Buenos Aires was Spanish

28、for good food. However, unlike children of his age in Asia and Europe, my son had studied creative geography. When he was only 6, he drew a map of the route that he traveled to get to school, including the streets, the traffic signs and the houses that he passed. Dissatisfied American parents forget

29、 that in this country their children are able to experiment freely with ideas; without this they will not really be able to think Or to believe in themselves. Critics of American education cannot grasp one thing: freedom. America, I think, is the only country that extends even to children the licens

30、e to freely speak, write and be creative. Our public education certainly is not perfect, but it is a great deal better than any other. I think I have found the answer to my question. 46 From the text we learn that_. （ A） both Americans and immigrants are dissatisfied with the quality of American edu

37、rn Max Weber grew up in New York, studied art there, and then went back to Europe to familiarize himself with contemporary artistic developments, on returning to the United States, Weber worked in the new styles he had discovered in Paris and soon became recognized as a pioneer of American abstract

38、painting. An example of his work at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. is a 1915 painting entitled “Rush Hour, New York. “ Using abstract, geometrical forms, Weber has expressed the movement, noise, and vibrancy of the great metropolis. The picture blends elements of two European styles

39、: cub- ism, which shows subjects from a number of different angles of vision at the same time, and futurism, which portrays speed and objects in motion. Forceful lines and spiky forms throughout the composition convey the energy and vitality of the city, Weber expresses the citys diversity by juxtap

40、osing forms with rounded and angular shapes to suggest specific elements of the urban landscape: skyscrapers, flashing lights, and hurrying people. 51 Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for this passage? （ A） Cubism （ B） American Art （ C） Works of the National Gallery of Art

41、（ D） An Innovative American Artist 52 “Rush Hour, New York“ was completed in the_. （ A） early nineteenth century （ B） late nineteenth century （ C） early twentieth century （ D） late twentieth century 53 The mood of the painting “Rush Hour, New York“ can be best described as _. （ A） depressing （ B） vi

43、ing to the passage, an element of futurism that Webers painting displays is the_. （ A） impression of movement （ B） inclusion of many human forms （ C） portrayal of skyscrapers （ D） application of forceful colors 55 It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, a

44、nd the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation. Language learning begins with listening. Individual chirden very greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey“ spoken instru

45、ctions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises. Any attempt to trace the developmen

46、t from. the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since the

47、se cannot be said to show the babys intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire(能发出的全部声音 ). This self-

48、imitation leads on to deliberate (有意识的 )imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech. 56 By“ challenges explanation“ (Para. 1, Line 2)the author means that_. （ A） no ex
