Passage 8(2014江蘇鹽城亭湖區(qū)，C)

    I love my Blackberry mobile phone—it's my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me.I also love my comput?er's it holds all of my writing and thoughts.However,I know there are times when I need to move away from these things and tmly com?municate with others.

    I teach a course called History Matters in college. My goals for the class include a deep discussion of historical subjects and ideas,because I want students to fully study the materials and discuss with each other in the classroom. I have a rule—no computers,iPads,phones,etc.When students were told my rule,some of them were not happy.

    Most students think my reasons for this rule include negative ex?periences in the past when students made wrong use of technology. There's a bit of truth to that.I've seldom had students make wrong use of technology in my classes; however,I have been e-mailed by students while they were in other teachers, classrooms.

    Some students think that I am anti-technology. There's no truth in that at all.As I noted above,I love technology and try to keep up with it.

    The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations. Interruptions (中斷) by technology often break students thoughts and make them depend too much on outside infor?mation for ideas.I want students to dig deep in themselves for ideas.I want them to push each other to think differently and to make con?nections between the course material and the class discussion.

    I have been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations (評價(jià)） show student satisfaction with the envi?ronment that I create.Students realize deep conversation and difficult tasks and they learn at a deeper level—a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.

I am not saying that I won^ ever change my mind about technol?ogy use in my history class,but until I hear a really good reason for the change,I will continue my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.


1. The writer's rule for his History Matters class is  .

  A. discussing historical ideas deeply 

  B. studying and discussing the materials 

  C. leaving technology out of the classroom 

  D. making right use of technology in class 

2. The word “negative” in Paragraph 3 means    .

3. What can we infer from the passage?

  A. Students make right use of technology in other teachers’ classes.

  B. The classroom is one of the good places to have deep conversa?tions.

  C. The writer encourages students to agree with others after discus?sion.

  D. Students are unhappy with the writer's way of teaching history.

4. The writer wants to tell us that    .

Passage 8

[語篇解讀]作為一名歷史老師，作者雖然經(jīng)常使用手機(jī)或電腦，但是他禁止學(xué)生在課堂上使用電子產(chǎn)品，而應(yīng)專注于和老師和同學(xué)的溝通。從學(xué)生的評價(jià)結(jié)果看，這個(gè)舉措取得了不錯(cuò)的效果——學(xué)生可以更深人地進(jìn)行課堂討論并提高了處理困難任務(wù)的能力。

1. C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三句I have a rule—no computers,iPadS,Phones,etc. 可知，作者不許學(xué)生把科技產(chǎn)品帶進(jìn)教室。故選 C項(xiàng)。

2. D詞義猜測題。根據(jù)上下文可推測negative意為:消極的，否定的， 負(fù)面的，意思與unpleasant最接近。.故選D項(xiàng)。

3. B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段內(nèi)容I want students to dig deep in themselves for ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and to make connections between the course material and the class discussion,可知，在作者看來課堂應(yīng)該是進(jìn)行深層次交流的好地方。故選B項(xiàng)。

4. B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段第一句The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations.和下文的事例可知：電 子產(chǎn)品阻礙學(xué)生在課堂上進(jìn)行真正的溝通。故選B項(xiàng)。

Passage 9(2011 鹽城，四)

    閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成表格中所缺信息，每空一詞。

    We all need a healthy environment,but we produce waste every clay and it does harm to our environment.Though we are young,we can still do something to help.In fact,even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a green life.

    Remember these three words ： reduce,reuse and recycle.

    Reduce means“use less”.Don’t waste things.This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new,think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good!When we do buy things,choose local products if possible,and try not to buy too many things from abroad.

    Reuse meansM use againUse things for as long as possible. When we buy things,make sure that they last a long time.We should take care of them so that they will last,and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones.Don’t use a paper cup or a paper hag.Ifs better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.

    Recycle meansa change things into something else .Although it takes energy to change something into something else,it better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials,such as recycled paper,to help save trees.

Passage 6(2014江蘇鹽城響水，三，ID

閱讀下面的短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成下面表格。

    For most of us,ifs very easy to jump onto a skateboard,play basketball or fly a kite. But for 12-year-old Luka,doing all of these activities is just a beautiful dream.That's because the young hoy has a serious illness,which makes his muscles (肌肉) become weaker and weaker.So it's impossible for Luka to do everyday activities.

    But like any other young boy,Luka has always dreamt about being able to do these activities. One day lie mentioned this to his school psychologist Matej Peljhan,who is also a famous photographer.

    At first it seemed like an impossible dream. However,after thinking about it for some time,Peljhan came up with the idea of taking a set of photos for Luka. He called the photos “The Little Prince”.

    What’s amazing is that the talented photographer finished the photos without the help of the computer. He asked the young boy to lie on a sheet (床單) on the ground and make different kinds of poses.Then he took the photos from above.In the photos,we can see Luka doing different kinds of activities,like playing basketball,swimming and skateboarding.    

    When Luka saw the photos,he was too excited to say a word. Though he would never be able to experience any of these activities,he at least knew how cool he would look.
