17、 Afraid of Maths Anyway?(10)Scientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for the difference between boys and girls. However, none were convincing enough to explain the general picture. As one scientist points out, “ There are slight genetic differences between the sexes at birth whi

18、ch may influence the subjects boys and girls choose. But the difficulty is that by the time children reach school age, there are so many other influences that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse at science and maths, or whether they ve been brought up to think of these subjects a

19、s boys territory.“Statistics show that in mathematics, at least, girls are equal to boys. A recent report suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics because of social attitudes. One of the report s authors says, “While it is socially unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write,

20、it is still acceptable for women to say that they are hopeless at maths. Our research shows that, although girls get marks which are as good as the boys , they have not been encouraged to do so.“The explanation for the difference, which is apparent during the teenage years, goes as far back as early

21、 childhood experiences. From their first days in nursery school, girls are not encouraged to work on their own or to complete tasks, although boys are. For example, boys and not girls, are often asked to “help“ with repair work. This encouragement leads to a way of learning how to solve problems lat

22、er on in life. Evidence shows that exceptional mathematicians and scientists did not have teachers who supplied answers; they had to find out for themselves.A further report on maths teaching reveals that teachers seem to give more attention to boys than to girls. Most teachers who took part in the

23、study claimed that they expect their male students to do better at mathematics and science subjects than their female students. All of this tends to encourage boys to work harder in these subjects, and gives them confidence and convinces them that they can succeed.Interestingly, both boys and girls

24、tend to regard such “masculine“ subjects like mathematics and science as difficult. Yet it has been suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses, not because they are difficult, but for social reasons.Mathematics and science are mainly masculine subjects, and therefore, as girls become teenagers,

25、they are less likely to take them up. Girls do not seem to want to be in open competition with boys. Neither do they want to do better than boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine and so, less attractive.adjust to mean realize instead of be concerned aboutaccidentally on the move be con

26、scious of get used to a variety of36 When can you _ your weakness and shortcoming?37 Joe went to visit the kindergarten_interviewing the famous scientist.38 It is known to all that the American nation is constantly_.39 We should_the scarcity of water on Earth.40 All that the university students_ is

28、ng is most effective, when all the people to be interviewed are located in a relatively small geographical area. Otherwise, the time and expense spent in traveling from one person to another makes this type of interviewing economically impractical. Personal interviewing is usually used when the info

29、rmation needed is too complex to be gathered by another technique. For example, a problem being studied may require the interviewer to probe beyond the more superficial answers that might be obtained with another method.It is sometimes assumed that personal interviewing is the most accurate of all s

30、urvey research techniques. Although personal interviewing may be accurate, in many cases, human errors may prevent a researcher from obtaining valid results. Questions perceived by the interviewee as an invasion of privacy or threatening in any way will probably produce false or partially true answe

31、rs. Also, since the interviewer must interpret the respondents statements, a certain amount of information loses results even though the respondent may be answering truthfully.In spite of the problems, at least two major advantages are provided by this research technique. First, the alert interviewe

32、r can generally tell if the respondent is being truthful or if he or she is giving superficial or untrue responses. Second, the interviewer can rephrase questions, give more explanations, or probe more deeply if the initial questions do not produce the information desired. As a result, the informati

33、on gleaned should be more accurate than that provided by interviews where no one is present to clarify questions or to interpret answers.46 It can be concluded from the passage that when all the people to be interviewed are located in a relatively big geographical area_.（A）personal interviewing is m

34、ost effective（B） personal interviewing is economically impractical（C） personal interviewing is the only technique to get information（D）telephone interviewing may not be used47 Sometimes a researcher cannot get valid results because_.（A）the information needed is too complex to be gathered（B） personal

35、 interviewing is the most accurate of all survey research techniques（C） personal interviewing is not as effective as other research techniques（D）both interviewer and interviewee may make mistakes during the interview48 In the second paragraph, the phrase “an invasion of privacy“ most probably means_

36、.（A）an unpleasant conversation（B） a challenge to interviewees professional skills（C） an interference with interviewees personal affairs（D）an interference with interviewees hobby49 In the first sentence of the last paragraph, the pronoun “this“ refers to a_.（A）survey（B） question（C） answering（D）person

37、al interviewing50 According to the last paragraph, one of the advantages of the personal interviewing is_.（A）the interviewer can ask the interviewee questions again in different ways（B） the interviewer can ask the interviewee some personal questions（C） the initial questions do not produce the inform

38、ation desired（D）no one 5 s present to clarify questions50 I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it werent for my job I would immediate

39、ly head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried fill the country. But how realistic is the dream?Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends

40、 to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of fiats. Children become aggressive and nervous-cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough, whereas in the past the

41、inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks dont even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. Pe

42、ople have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to mm to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also tree that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. Th

43、ere is little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on an expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable sti

44、llness and quiet.What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation and constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that You are at the gentler of things, and

45、 that life doesnt come to an end at haft-past nine at night. Some people have found(or rather bought)a compromise between the two: they have expressed their preference for the “ quiet life“ by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have a

46、bout as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind-they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning“ to the locals as t

47、hey pass by. Im keen on the idea, but you see theres my cat, Toby. Im not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty male down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evenin

48、g.51 We get the impression from the first paragraph that the author_.（A）used to live in the country（B） used to work in the city（C） works in the city（D）lives in the country52 In the authors opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPT_.（A）a strong sense of fear（B） lack of communication（C） housing conditions（D）a sense of isolation53 The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following things in the country EXCEPT_.（A）daily necessities（B） fresh fruits（C） designer clothes（D）fresh vegetables54 According to the passage, which of the following adje
