Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,

10、C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 10 Jarden Zinc Products, a large zinc plant a few miles outside Greeneville, Tennessee, has a special claim. Since 1982, it has been the only supplier of penny b

11、lanks for the U. S. Mint (铸币厂 ). It s a good business for Jarden since 2000, the company has earned more than $ 800 million. But it may not be a good deal for the U. S. The value of the penny has been dropping for years. In 2006, it began to cost more than a penny to make a penny. It now costs 2 to

12、produce a 1 coin. Many countries have stopped using pennies. Is it time for the U. S. to do the same? Jarden and the zinc industry are fighting to keep the penny. Since 2006, Jarden has given $1.2 million to Americans for Common Cents (ACC). The groups mission is to keep the penny in use. Mark Welle

13、r is ACCs executive director. He argues that there are three main reasons for keeping the penny; Without it, we would become more reliant on the five-cent coin, which also has problems; charities that depend on penny drives would not be able to raise as much money; and a 2012 survey shows that 67% o

14、f Americans want to keep the penny. Many people surveyed said they feared they would end up paying more for products. Many experts disagree with ACC. They point to the dozens of countries that have gotten rid of their lowest-value coins without raising prices for consumers. And charities dont seem t

15、oo concerned either. President Barack Obama says the mint could explore using cheaper metals to make pennies. Steel is less expensive than zinc. Pennies are 97. 5% zinc and 2. 5% copper. But no matter what it is made of, the pennys days may be numbered. Most in-store purchases are now made with cred

16、it cards, not cash. Is it time for a change? 11 What is the main idea of the passage? （ A） Many countries are trying to reduce the cost of making coins. （ B） These days a penny made is a penny wasted. （ C） There is disagreement over whether the U. S. should stop using pennies. （ D） Many countries ha

17、ve stopped using pennies. 12 The mission of ACC is to_. （ A） conduct online surveys （ B） lower the production costs of the penny （ C） raise money for charities （ D） keep the penny in use 13 The penny coin is mainly made of_. （ A） copper （ B） steel （ C） iron （ D） zinc 14 What does the sentence “the p

18、ennys days may be numbered“ in the last paragraph probably mean? （ A） The penny may be out of use very soon. （ B） The value of the penny may rise. （ C） The penny has a special place in American history. （ D） The penny is part of American culture. 15 According to the passage, which of the following s

19、tatements is NOT TRUE? （ A） Jarden is the sole supplier of the zinc the U.S. Mint uses to make the penny. （ B） The majority of American people are in favor of keeping the penny. （ C） Many Americans fear that getting rid of the penny would cause prices to rise. （ D） The U.S. Mint now spends 2.4 cents

20、 to make a penny. 15 Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character dev

21、elopment in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach? Of course there will always be learning by osmosis (耳濡目染 ) in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child s moral literacy is strengt

22、hened when they acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue. I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both te

23、acher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed, we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up exc

24、uses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. Its also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control. Our role as educators is also to look for

25、 opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when a student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a respon

26、se such as, “that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!“ we draw out from them the required virtue: “When you re walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use?“ 16 Which of the following is the main idea of this passage? （ A） Teaching morals and values has been a frequently dis

27、cussed topic in the past few years. （ B） The author and his staff embed virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children. （ C） Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives. （ D） Role plays are an exc

28、ellent way of getting students to practice their English. 17 We can infer from the first paragraph that_. （ A） there tends to be disagreement about what character education is （ B） most parents are not satisfied with the teaching methods adopted in schools （ C） the approach to character education is

29、 generally considered different from the approaches to other skills （ D） more and more schools are adopting strategies to improve school attendance 18 The word “philosophy“ in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_. （ A） study （ B） subject （ C） viewpoint （ D） investigation 19 The author is a_

30、. （ A） teacher （ B） librarian （ C） reporter （ D） manager 20 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to build character in children? （ A） Story readings and discussions. （ B） Osmosis. （ C） Taking every opportunity to teach character. （ D） Role play. 20 How fit are your teeth?

31、Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone. The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week.

32、It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection. The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you re brushing long enough. “Its kind of like having a dentist act

33、ually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,“ says Thomas Serval, the French inventor. The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among y

34、our teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun,“ Several says. Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes“, but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush t

35、hat really told him how well his children brushed. The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $ 99 to $ 199, developing on features. The U. S. is the first target market. Serval says that one day, itll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also

36、has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush. 21 Which is one of the features of the Kolibree toothbrush? （ A） It can sense how users brush their teeth. （ B） It can track users school performance. （ C） It can detect users fear of seeing a dentist. （ D） It can help us

37、ers find their phones. 22 What can we learn from Servals words in Paragraph 3? （ A） You will find it enjoyable to see a dentist. （ B） You should see your dentist on a day-to-day basis. （ C） You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a dentist. （ D） Youd like a dentist to watch you brush your te

40、le will be removed. （ B） A mobile phone will be built into it. （ C） It will be used to fill holes in teeth. （ D） It will be able to check users teeth. 25 The old idea that child prodigies “burn themselves“ or “overtax their brains“ in the early years, therefore, are prey to failure and (at worst) me

41、ntal illness is just a myth. As a matter of fact, the outstanding thing that happens to bright children is that they are very likely to grow into bright adults. To find this out, 1,500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty-fifth year with these results. On adult intelligence tests, they sc

42、ored as high as they did as children. They were, as a group, in good health, physically and mentally. Eighty-four percent of their group were married and seemed content with their life. About 70 percent had graduated from colleges, though only 30 percent had graduated with honors. A few had even flu

43、nked out (退学 ) , but nearly half of these had returned to graduate. Of the men, 80 percent were in one of the professions or in business, managers or semi-professional jobs. The women who had remained single had offices, business, or professional occupations. The group had published 90 books and 1,5

44、00 articles in scientific, scholarly, and literary magazines and had collected more than 100 patents. In a material way they didnt do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth whe

45、n last surveyed.
