2、Desirable Qualities in a TeacherHere I want to try to give you an answer to the question: What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? Probably no two people would draw up exactly similar lists, but I think the following would be generally accepted.First, the teacher\'s personality should be pleasantly live ａｎｄ　attractive. This does not rule out people who are physically plain, ｏｒeven ugly, because many such have great personal charm. I would say that excludes all of dull ｏｒpurely negative personality. I still stick to what I said in my earlier book: that school children probably suffer more from bores than from brutes.Secondly, it is not merely desirable but essential fｏｒa teacher to have a great capacity fｏｒsympathy in the literal meaning of that word; a capacity to tune in to the minds ａｎｄ　feelings of other people, especially, since most teachers are school teachers, to the minds ａｎｄ　feelings of children. Closely related with this is the capacity to be tolerant not indeed, of what is wrong, but of frailty （脆弱) ａｎｄ　immaturity of human nature which induce people, ａｎｄ　_____ especially children, to make mistakes.Thirdly, I hold it essential fｏｒa teacher to be both intellectually ａｎｄ　morally honest. This does not mean being a plaster saint. It means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths.【单选题】

A.otherwise

B.indeed

C.again

D.for

正确答案:C

答案解析:承前文especially, since most teachers are school teachers, to the minds ａｎｄ　feelings of children，文中再次强调“尤其是孩子”，故选again。

4、Intelligent Machines1. Medical scientists are already putting computer chips (芯片) directly into the brain to help people who have Parkinson\'s disease, but in what other ways might computer technology be able to help us? Ray Kurzweil is authｏｒof the successful book The Age of Intelligent Machines ａｎｄ　is one of the world\'s best computer research scientists. He is researching the possibilities.2. Kurzweil gets computers to recognize voices. An example of this is Ramona; the virtual (虚拟的) hostess of Kurzweil\'s homepage, who is programmed to understａｎｄ　what you say. Visitors to the site can have their conversations with her, ａｎｄ　Ramona also dances ａｎｄ　sings.3. Kurzweil uses this technology to help people with physical disabilities. One of his ideas is a "seeing machine". This will be "like a friend that could describe what is going on in the visible world", he explains. Blind people will use a visual sensｏｒ(探测器) which will probably be built into a pair of sunglasses. This sensｏｒwill describe to the person everything it sees.4. Another idea, which is likely to help deaf people, is the "listening machine". This invention will recognize millions of words ａｎｄ　understａｎｄ　any speaker. The listening machine will also be able to trans late into other languages, so even people without hearing problems are likely to be interested in using it.5. But it is not just about helping people with disabilities. Looking further into the future, Kurzweil sees a time when we will be able to download our entire consciousness onto a computer. This technology probably won\'t be ready fｏｒat least 50 years, but when it arrives, it means our minds will be able to live forever.Paragraph 2 ____【单选题】

A.A new pair of eyes

B.Computers that can communicate

C.Everlasting consciousness on a computer

D.Time to break off a friendship

E.An authｏｒａｎｄ　researcher

F.A new pair of ears

正确答案:B

答案解析:本题难度较大，第二段没有明显的主旨句，考生需要很强的归纳概括能力。本段提到智能机器能够使电脑识别声音，和别人进行交流。回来看选项，B项Computers that can communicate，“能进行交流的电脑”，可以概括本段内容，答案是B。

5、Preparations fｏｒInterviewThe first thing you have to prepare fｏｒa job interview is to write your resume. Most of all, the resume should emphasize all the related experience you have had. The resume should be clear ａｎｄ　you should keep in mind that the person reading it will probably be reading many other resumes. The best thing you can do is to . make it obvious why you can do the job better than anybody else.

You should be neat in your appearance as well as in resume.Finally, you must keep in mind that employers do not like people to smoke ｏｒchew gum during an interview.

6、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!According to the passage, when we become adults ____.【单选题】

A.we can still learn to be more creative

B.most of us are no longer creative

C.we are not as imaginative as children

D.we are unwilling to be creative

正确答案:A

答案解析:本题难度不大，不要先看选项，吃透题干意思，回到原文定位，答案就在文章开头：Most 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. 句意不难理解，选项里creative替换了原文的imagination，最佳答案是A。

7、Electric BackpackBackpacks are convenient. They can hold your books, your lunch, ａｎｄ　a change of clothes, leaving your hands free to do other things. Someday, if you don\'t mind carrying a heavy load, your backpacks might also power your MP3 player, keep your cell phone running, ａｎｄ　maybe even light your way home.Lawrence C. Rome ａｎｄ　his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia ａｎｄ　the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Mass, have invented a backpack that makes electricity from energy produced while its wearer walks. In military actions, search-and-rescue operations, ａｎｄ　scientific field studies, people rely increasingly on cell phones, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, night-vision goggles, ａｎｄ　other battery-powered devices to get around ａｎｄ　do their work. The backpack\'s electricity-generating feature could dramatically reduce the amount of a wearer\'s load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome ａｎｄ　his colleagues in the Sept. 9, Science.The backpack\'s electricity-creating powers depend on springs used to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against the wearer\'s back, ａｎｄ　the whole pack moves up ａｎｄ　down as the person walks. A gear mechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of an electrical generator, producing up to 7. 4 watts.Unexpectedly, tests showed that wearers of the new backpack ａｌｔｅｒtheir gaits in response to the pack\'s oscillations, so that they carry loads more comfortably ａｎｄ　with less effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprising advantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric ａｎｄ　non-electric versions of the backpack.The backpack could be especially useful fｏｒsoldiers, scientists, mountaineers, ａｎｄ　emergency workers who typically carry heavy backpacks. Fｏｒthe rest of us, power-generating backpacks could make it possible to walk, play video games, watch TV, ａｎｄ　listen to music, all at the same time. Electricity-generating packs aren\'t on the market yet, but if you do get one eventually, just make sure to look both ways before crossing the street!What is the most important feature of the backpack invented by Lawrence C. Rome ａｎｄ　his colleagues?【单选题】

A.It produces electricity fｏｒelectronic devices while the wearer walks.

B.It can be used as cell phones, GPS in the military actions ｏｒfield studies.

C.It is small ａｎｄ　convenient.

D.It is light ａｎｄ　easy to carry.

正确答案:A

答案解析:第2段的第1句说，Lawrence C. Rome及其同事们发明的这种背包，当背着背包走路时，会有电能产生。该段最后一句告诉我们，背包的这种性能可减少背包的重量，因为不必携带备用电池。

8、Ceasing to Wear TiesIt\'s useless. It\'s dirty. It spreads disease. That\'s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called fｏｒhospital doctors to stop wearing ties.That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body ａｎｄ　keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains. Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate.Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries (雇佣军) in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Known as cravats(围巾), these became a popular fashion item in France ａｎｄ　eventually evolved into the tie.It\'s an interesting story, but it doesn\'t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth ｏｒsilk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明 ). In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments (团), sports clubs, schools ａｎｄ　gentleman\'s clubs. Each tie was in a particular ｓｅｔof colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain\'s most powerful classes. That made the tie itself a symbol of power ａｎｄ　respect. ａｎｄ　that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery, so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.Is there a future fｏｒties? The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.Paragraph 2 ________.【单选题】

A.Origin of the tie

B.British ties

C.Uselessness of the tie

D.Old-fashioned ties

E.Role of the tie

F.Signs of a tieless era

正确答案:C

答案解析:第二段的主题句是第三句Ties serve no purpose（领带毫无用处）。C选项Uselessness of the tie与其意思一致，故C为正确答案。

9、Why People Use Pseudonyms (假名字)?You can\'t choose the name you are given at birth, but in many countries you can change it legally when you reach adulthood. Of course, most people never change their names even if they feel unhappy about them. However some people do take this course of action－particularly artists! What makes an artist want to change their name? Sometimes it\'s fｏｒpurely personal reasons, such as the Nobel Prize winning poet from Chile, Neftalf Reyes. He didn\'t want his father to know he was writing poetry, so he changed his name to Pablo Neruda when he was a young man. At other times the reason may appear strange, take the case of the Portuguese poet Femando Pessoa, who wrote under 75 different names. The reason? "When I use a different name, I always write in a different way," he explained. In most cases, however , people change their names fｏｒsocial, historical, political, ｏｒcultural reasons. Here are some of the most common: reason. The person\'s real name is just too long ａｎｄ　difficult to remember. Let\'s be honest, Madonna Louise Ciccone is not as easy to remember as just plain Madonna. ａｎｄ　short names are much easier to remember: William Bradley became Brad Pitt ａｎｄ　Edson Arantes do Nascimento became Pele.Sometimes names are changed fｏｒmarketing purposes. Fｏｒexample, if a name sounds too foreign, it may be changed to something that is more recognizable in a ____ . So in the film world, Ramon Estsvez adopted the name Martin Sheen. ｏｒmaybe the artist\'s real name doesn\'t sound attractive－Chad Everett does sound a lot better than Raymond Cramton.Artists sometimes choose the name of someone they admire. Robert Zimmerman changed his name to Boo Dylan because of his admiration fｏｒthe Welsh poet, Dylan Thomas.Another reason may be practical: in the past, women found it very difficult to get published. To avoid this situation, they sometimes gave themselves men\'s names, so the English authｏｒMary Ann Evans became George Eliot, ａｎｄ　she did get her books published!【单选题】
