Section C
Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
A．Reasons for the use of Podcasting
B．Definition and origin of Podcast
C．Importance of Podcasting at school
D．Advantage of Podcasts over other audio media
E．Podcasts—a further step from voice recordings
F．Devices needed for Podcasting
80．________________________
Recently a group of second –graders visited our school library to work on a “holidays around the world” project. The children created pictures showing holiday customs and then created voice recordings explaining what they drew. The incident showed very clearly the effectiveness of student-created voice recordings. Now imagine taking things one step further and creating Podcasts in a classroom setting.
81．________________________
The term Podcast refers to an audio recording, linked to the Wed, that can be downloaded to a personal MP3 player. The word is created from broadcast and from iPod ---the wildly popular MP3 player from Apple.
82．________________________
Using audio with students isn’t new, of course. Teachers have used audiobooks at listening centers and recorded student voice on tape or CD or many years. Voice and music are the original media for teaching. Podcasts ,however, can reach a much wider audience in a time frame outside the school days. Booktalking , an old way of getting kids excited about books, gets a tech assistance with Podcasting. Students can do some booktalking themselves; book review Podcasts seem to be another natural way for students to share what they know, providing an alternative to the book report.
83．________________________
There are a number of excellent reasons for using Podcasting. Teachers made audio Podcasts, including visuals or video clips for any content area instruction and review. Some teachers have begun to record themselves teaching important concepts; this creates an account of information online for kids to access when they’re stuck on a homework assignment. Audio and video files can also function as assessment tools. Imagine being a classroom teacher in September who can actually hear how his or her students were reading in June the school year before.
84．________________________
You don’t need an iPod to make a Podcast. If you have a computer, a microphone, and some free software, you can make a Podcast. While an MP3 player is a popular and useful gadget, your audience doesn’t need MP3 players to listen, either: your students and their families can use the computer to play back what you’ve recorded.

When Winsion Chruchill was a young man, his father concluded that Churchill was “unfit for a career in law or politics” because he did so badly in school.
When Charles Darwin was getting ready to  36  on his five-year expedition on The Beagle, his father was extremely  37  . he thought his son was falling into a life of sin and idleness.
Gorge Washington’s mother was a complaining,   38  woman by all accounts. She thought little of Washington’s achievements and didn’t   39  at either of his presidential inaugurations（就職典禮）. She was always  40  that her children overlooked her and she was especially angry when her son George ran off to  41  the army for the American Revolution. She   42  believed it was his duty to stay home and take care of her.
In his youth, the  43  Leonard Bernstein, one of the most talented and successful composers in American history, was continually pressured by his father to  44  his music and do something worthwhile, like help out in his family’s beauty-supply business. After Leonard became  45  , his father was asked about that, and he answered, “Well, how was I supposed to know he was the Leonard Bernstein?”
People may criticize you or make fun of your ideas or actively try to  46  you. Often their efforts are only attempts to protect you from  47  . But obviously failure is only a possibility if you stop. If you keep  48  , a “failure” is just another learning  49  . Besides, giving up on a heartfelt goal is worse than failing. “Many people die”, said Wendell Holmes, “with their  50  still in them.” That’s true tragedy.
So listen  51  to the worries and criticisms of your friends and family, and do your best to put their minds  52  , but then carry on. Listen last to your own heart. You   53  yourself better than anyone on earth. Make sure your song is  54  .
Listen to your own heart. Don’t let your music   55  with you.

第二部分閱讀理解
Can you imagine a classroom which misses the one thing that’s long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing? Paper. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test paper. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to use up ink at the critical(關(guān)鍵的) moment.
Such a “paperless classroom” is one that more and more schools are trying to get.　　
Students never do any handwriting in the class. Instead, they use specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every student’s personal computer.　　
Having computers also means that students can use the Internet. They can look up information on any subject they’re studying, from maths to social science.　　
A middle school teacher Judy Harrell in Florida, US, described how her class used the Web to learn about the war in Iraq in 2003.　　
“We could touch every side of the country through different sites: from the forest to refuges(難民營),” she said. “Using a book that’s three or four years old is impossible.”　　
And exams can go online too. At a high school in Tennessee, US, students take tests on their own computers. The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own electronic grade book.　　
A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper. High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky, US, said she used to give about 900 pieces of paper each week to each student.　　
“Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers,” she said.　　
But, with all this technology, there’s always the risk that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available for these hi-tech students.
41．What does the underlined sentence “use up ink at the critical moment” in the 1st paragraph mean?
A．Pens use ink, while pencils don’t.
B．Pens get lost easily at any moment.
C．Pens may have little or no ink at the key moment.
D．Pens may not write well at the critical moment.
42．What did the middle school teacher show while using the example of her class?
A．the Web could take them everywhere.
B．the Web taught them a lot.
C．the Web is a good tool for information.
D．the Web, better than the textbooks, can give the latest information.
43．What does the phrase “break down” in the last paragraph mean?
　 A．Break up.        B．Stop working.       C．Fall down.     D．Lose control.

Do your kids like plastic toys? Well, I guess it’s time for them to play with wooden toys.
I have always liked kids’ wooden toys since I was five. I always ran along on the back of a hobby horse pretending to be a cowboy from the West when I was a little boy. Now I’m a dad and I still like buying these timeless natural wooden toys. They will never be out of style. My daughter has a child’s rocking horse, and my two sons have wooden trains and cars. The great thing about this type of toys is that they will last generations if they are treated kindly. Even if they break, most of the time they can be repaired using spare parts bought from wooden-toy makers, and if the part is not too complicated(復(fù)雜的), you yourself can make the part from a piece of wood.
What if they do break and can’t be repaired? Well, at least they can be dealt with without having any bad effects on the environment. They can be turned into wood chippings and used for pathways in the country or play areas for kids. Even if the wooden toy is buried as rubbish, which is very rare these days, it will not harm the soil or the environment.
I like all types of wooden toys. There is such a wide variety of wooden toys today and the choice is getting bigger day by day. As an alternative(替代品) to plastic toys, wooden toys can’t be beaten. I’m sure in the near future wood will no doubt become the number one material for making toys, as plastic becomes more and more expensive because of rising oil prices and the environmental issues concerning plastic. Plastic toys might harm kids’ health, too.
67. According to the author, wooden toys which can’t be repaired will _______.
A. be taken back by the makers            B. need a lot of money to deal with
C. not harm the environment              D. be collected by collectors
68. From the last paragraph, we can learn that _______.
A. plastic will be used up sooner or later
B. plastic toys will not be allowed to be sold very soon
C. wooden toys will become more popular in the future
D. wooden toys will become more and more expensive
69. Which of the following is NOT the reason why plastic toys will be less popular in the future?
A. That plastic has bad effects on the environment.
B. That plastic toys might harm the health of children.
C. That plastic toys offer children few choices.
D. That oil prices are getting higher than before.
70. We can infer that this passage is written to _______.
A. tell us the disadvantages of plastic toys   
B. advise parents to buy wooden toys instead of plastic ones
C. tell us how much the author and his children like wooden toys
D. advise toy makers to make wooden toys rather than plastic ones

Doing Favours Can Be Dangerous
I found out one time that doing a favour for someone could get you into a lot of trouble．I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test．During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand．So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen．She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write．I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.
Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed．As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she mentioned how important it was to stand on your own feet and be responsible for your own acts．For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves．She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave．I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.
Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test．When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as though I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper．I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed awfully strange to her that I hadn’t mentioned anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test．Even though I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favour by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.
1．As the author didn’t understand what the girl was whispered, he __________．
A．paid no attention to her
B．turned to the teacher for help
C．tried to find out what it was all about
D．whispered back, meaning to silence her

With the theme "Cherishing the earth's resources, transforming the mode of development and living a low-carbon lifestyle," China's Ministry of Land and Resources held a ceremony this Thursday to mark the 41st World Earth Day, aims to generate new ideas of resource-saving, especially among the younger generation. In fact, Chinese young urbanities are turning to the seemingly trendy low-carbon lifestyle.
But for the country as a whole to achieve a low-carbon economy, it could mean ordinary people paying more for electricity, water, gas or simply every purchase. Of necessity, a low-carbon economy would be the basis of China's economic growth, yet it comes with a high price tag. Everybody longs for fresh air, clean water and healthy surroundings. But, who is going to pay for that?
For those who are still working hard for the basic necessities of life, sharing the cost of a greener environment can be taxing. For those who are already victimized by environmental pollution, additional expenditure for saving the environment is hard to bear. Behind all the lofty goals and loaded phrases of climate change negotiations, in everyday terms, the Chinese want to know whether companies will make them pay the cost of saving energy or whether government would come up with new levies.
They have reasons to worry. The recent hike in the charges of utilities, such as natural gas, water and electricity, have led to widespread public grievance(抱怨,牢騷), for the increases were imposed without proper public hearing. Besides the practice of monopoly State-owned enterprises raising prices at will does not seem to bode well for a low-carbon economy.
The government has a responsibility to strengthen regulation of utility charges and make the pricing mechanism more transparent. In the age of the low-carbon economy, the Chinese government needs to strike a new balance between public welfare and business competitiveness.
How far the initiatives toward a low-carbon economy succeed depends on whether they truly benefit ordinary people and is accepted by them. The majority cannot sacrifice their life to build a greener world for the few.
64.The author probably agrees to call on ____________.
A. more and more citizens to devote themselves to the “Low-carbon economy” for the sake of
our earth immediately
B. the rich to generally pay for the bill, which aims at saving our planet.
C. our government to take proper measures to make the “Low-carbon economy” benefit more
people
D. all the big enterprises to reduce their prices to build a greener world
65. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A. Some people can’t afford their everyday expenses, let alone pay for a better environment.
B. Putting forward the “Low-carbon economy” costs much.
C. The balance between public welfare and business competitiveness in China now is not that
good for the “Low-carbon economy”.
D. Now that it’s hard for us to make the “Low-carbon economy” into practice, our government
should put it to an end.
66. The “Low-carbon economy” __________.
A. is beneficial only to the rich people
B. has led to widespread public grievance
C. can be realized when pigs fly in the sky
D. cannot be called success before it has been fully considered
67. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. China reaches out for younger generation to promote low-carbon lifestyle.
B. Low-carbon economy, acceptable or not?
C. Who will get the most benefit from the Low-carbon economy?
D. Put forward the new policy and save the world.
