1、One-Room SchoolsOne-room schools are part of the heritage of the United States, ａｎｄ　the mention of them makes people feel a longing fｏｒ"the way things were." One - room schools are an endangered species (种类), however. Fｏｒmore than a hundred years, one - room schools have been systematically shut down ａｎｄ　their students were sent away to centralized schools. As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one - room schools in the United States. By 1970 there were 1,800. Today, of the nearly 800 remaining one - room schools, more than 350 are in Nebraska. The rest are spread through a few other states that have on their road maps wide - open spaces between towns.Now that there are hardly any left, educators are beginning to think that maybe there is something yet to be learned from one - room schools, something that served the pioneers that might serve as well today. Progressive educators have come up with new names like "peer -ｇｒｏｕｐteaching" ａｎｄ　"multi - age grouping" fｏｒeducational procedures that occur naturally in the one - room schools. In a one - room school the children teach each other because the teacher is busy part of the time teaching someone else. The fourth grader can work at the fifth grade level in math ａｎｄ　the third grade level in English without the bad name associated with being left back ｏｒthe pressures of being skipped (超过) ahead. A youngster with a learning disability can find his ｏｒher own level without being separated from other pupils. A few hours in a small school that has only one classroom ａｎｄ　it becomes clear why so many parents feel that one of the advantages of living in Nebraska is that their children have to go to a one - room school.It can be learned from paragraph 2 that many parents in Nebraska ____.【单选题】

A.don\'t like centralized schools

D.prefer rural life

正确答案:A

答案解析:本题有一定的难度，考生不太好定位，需要认真读第二段找答案。第二段最后一句谈到，“许多父母认为住在内布拉斯加州，有一个好处就是孩子能够去大教室学校学习”，换句话说，“家长们都不喜欢政府的集中化管理学校”。回来看选项，A是近义解释，是最佳答案。做本题时可以先看选项，得到信息提示。

2、U. S. to Start $3. 2 Billion Child Health Study in JanuaryA study that will cost $3. 2 billion ａｎｄ　last more than two decades to track the health of100,000 U. S. children from before birth to age 21 will be launched in January, U. S. health officials said on Friday.Officials from the U. S. government\'s National Institutes of Health said they hope the study, to be conducted at 105 locations throughout the United States, can help identify early-life influences that affect later development, with the goal of learning new ways to treat ｏｒprevent illness.The study will examine hereditary ａｎｄ　environmental factors such as exposure to certain chemicals that affect health.Researchers will collect genetic ａｎｄ　biological samples from people in the study as well as samples from the homes of the women ａｎｄ　their babies including air, water, dust ａｎｄ　materials used to construct their residences, the NIH said.Officials said more than $200 million has been spent already ａｎｄ　the study is projected to cost$3. 2 billion."We anticipate that in the long term , what we learn from the study will result in a significant savings in the nation\'s health care costs," Dr. Duane Alexander, who heads the NIH\'s Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health ａｎｄ　Human Development, told reporters.The study will begin in January when the University of North Carolina ａｎｄ　the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York start signing up pregnant women whose babies will then be followed to age 21.Some of the early findings will be about factors behind pre-term birth, which has become more common in recent years, according to Dr. Peter Scheid of the NIH, who heads the study.The people taking part will be from rural, urban ａｎｄ　suburban areas, from all income ａｎｄ　educational levels ａｎｄ　from all racial groups, the NIH said.The aim of the study is to find new ways to ____. 【单选题】

答案解析:短文的第2段提到了此项研究的goal，即aim，这便是“learning new ways to treat ｏｒprevent illness. ”

3、Status of Teachers in AmericaAt present, in many American cities especially, many teachers in the public schools say they are underpaid. They point to jobs such as secretary ｏｒtruck driver, which often pay more to start than that of the teacher. In many other fields, such as law, medicine, computer science, a beginning worker may make more than a teacher who has taught fｏｒseveral year.Teaching has never been a profession that attracted people interested in high salaries. It is by history a profession that has provided rewards in addition to money, the satisfaction of sharing knowledge, of influencing others, of guiding young people. But in the past several years, there are more difficulties in teaching, fｏｒmany, than there are rewards.Unruly students, who would have chosen teaching as their life career in the past, are going into other fields.Another reason fｏｒthis change in teacher candidates is the changing status of women in the United States. Until the late 1960s ａｎｄ　1970s, one of the most popular choices fｏｒwomen was teaching. But as other professions, such as law ａｎｄ　medicine opened up to women, women stopped pouring into teacher training programs. Thus, a majｏｒpool of excellent candidates fｏｒthe teaching profession dwindled(减少).Bit by bit government officials ａｎｄ　others realized that the status of the teacher had suffered. They talked about change. But change in a vast society like the United States is not easy. People\'s attitudes have formed over many years, ａｎｄ　sometimes change takes many years.Which of the following is not a reason that influences women in their decision to become teachers?【单选题】

A.How much income the job can pay.

B.The changing status of women.

C.Less housework fｏｒwomen to do.

D.More professions opened up to women.

正确答案:C

答案解析:A选项可以在第2段中找到；B和D选项可以在第4段中找到，只有C选项没有提到。按照常理，选择当老师不可能是由于女人家务事少，因此选C。

4、Three Ways to Become More CreativeMost people believe they don\'t have much imagination. They are wrong. Everyone has imagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isn\'t always connected with great works of art ｏｒideas. People at work ａｎｄ　in their free time routinely think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer ｏｒyou just want to expａｎｄ　your mind! There are three techniques to help you.This technique involves taking unrelated ideas ａｎｄ　trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve ｏｒthe job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea ｏｒobject, fｏｒexample, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated with candles, light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present; you could buy him tickets to a match ｏｒtake him out fｏｒthe night. Imagine that normal limitations don\'t exist. You have as much time/space/money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal ａｎｄ　the new possibilities. If, fｏｒexample, your goal is to learn to ski (滑雪), you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time ａｎｄ　the money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December, ｏｒevery Monday in January.Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators (谈判者) use this technique in business, ａｎｄ　so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books. They ask questions: what does this character want? Why can\'t she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What does she dream about? If your goal involves other people, put yourself "in their shoes". The best fishermen think they are the fish!The phrase "put yourself in their shoes" in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ____.【单选题】

A.dress yourself like them

B.do as they ask you to

C.think as they would

D.put on their shoes

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题难度不大，干扰项干扰不强，put yourself in their shoes即使不看原文，考生也能大致判断是“站在对方立场上考虑问题”，最佳答案是C。think as they would，这是个省略句，实际上是think as they would think，即“站对方的立场上考虑问题。”

5、How to Be a Successful BusinesspersonHave you ever wondered why some people are successful in business ａｎｄ　others are not? Here\'s a story about one successful businessperson. He started out washing dishes ａｎｄ　today he owns 168 restaurants.Zubair Kazi was born in Bhatkal, a small town in southwest India. His dream was to be an airplane pilot, ａｎｄ　when he was 16 years old, he learned to fly a small plane.At the age of 23 ａｎｄ　with just a little money in his pocket, Mr. Kazi moved to the United States. He hoped to get a job in the airplane industry in California. Instead, he ended up working fｏｒa company that rented cars.While Mr. Kazi was working at the car rental (租赁的) company, he frequently ate at a nearby KFC restaurant. To save money on food, he decided to get a job with KFC. Fｏｒtwo months, he worked as a cook\'s assistant. His job was to clean the kitchen ａｎｄ　help the cook. "I didn\'t like it," Mr. Kazi says, "but I always did the best I could."One day, Mr. Kazi\'s two co-workers failed to come to work. That day, Mr. Kazi did the work of all three people in the kitchen. This really impressed the owners of the restaurant.A few months later, the owners needed a manager fｏｒa new restaurant. They gave the job to Mr. Kazi. He worked hard as the manager ａｎｄ　soon the restaurant was making a profit.A few years later, Mr. Kazi heard about a restaurant that was losing money. The restaurant was dirty inside ａｎｄ　the food was terrible. Mr. Kazi borrowed money from a bank ａｎｄ　bought the restaurant. Fｏｒthe first six months, Mr. Kazi worked in the restaurant from 8 a. m. to 10 p.m. , seven days a week. He ａｎｄ　his wife cleaned up the restaurant, remodeled the front of the building, ａｎｄ　improved the cooking. They also tried hard to please the customers. If someone had to wait more than ten minutes fｏｒtheir food, Mrs. Kazi gave them a free soda. Before long the restaurant was making a profit.A year later, Mr. Kazi sold his restaurant fｏｒa profit. With the money he earned, he bought three more restaurants that were losing money. Again, he cleaned them up, improved the food, ａｎｄ　retrained the employees. Before long these restaurants were making a profit, too.Today Mr. Kazi owns 168 restaurants, but he isn\'t planning to stop there. He\'s looking fｏｒmore poorly managed restaurants to buy. "I love it when I go to buy a restaurant ａｎｄ　find it\'s a mess," Mr. Kazi says. "The only way it can go is up. "Mr. Kazi decided to work with KFC to________.【单选题】

A.learn how to cook

B.save money fｏｒa car

C.save money on food

D.learn how to run a restaurant

正确答案:C

答案解析:细节考查题。题干问Zubair Kazi决定去KFC工作的原因。参见原文第四段第二句：To save money on food，he decided to get a job with KFC.由此可知他去KFC工作是为了节省在食物方面的开销，故正确答案为C。
