People do not analyse every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a  36  problem. They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without   37 ; they try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all of these methods  38  , the person with a problem has to start analysing. There are six  39  in analysing a problem.
  40 , the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must   41  that there is a problem with his bicycle.
Next the person must  42  the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must  43  the parts that are wrong.
Now the person must look for  44  that will make the problem clearer and lead to   45  solutions. For example, suppose Sam  46  that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes.  47 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, talk to his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.
After  48  the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example  49, his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.
In the end, one  50  seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the  51  idea comes quite  52  because the thinker suddenly sees something in a  53  way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum stuck to a brake. He immediately hits on the solution to his problem: he must  54  the brake.
Finally the solution is  55 . Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly. In short he has solved the problem.

試題分析：這是一篇說明文，通過舉例說明了解決問題的六大步驟。文章淺顯易懂，邏輯性強。
小題1:C人們不總是對遇到的每一個問題進行分析。他們往往試圖記起上次遇到與之相似的問題時的解決辦法。
小題2:B此處without thinking意為：不假思索，可根據 by trial and error（反復試驗）判斷。
小題3:A從上下句的關系看，它們是轉折關系。當這些方法都失敗后他們就會開始分析。
小題4:C上下文串聯(lián)。根據下文的描述可知。此處stage的意思是“步驟”。分析問題有六個步驟。
小題5:A上文中提到分析問題有六個步驟，自然這是第一個步驟。
小題6:D此處see在這句話中意為：明白。當Sam的自行車不能正常使用時，他應該明白自行車出了毛病。
小題7:B上下文串聯(lián)。要解決問題，當然要找到問題所在。
小題8:B第二步要找到問題所在，所以選determine“測定，找出”，與find out意思相同。
小題9:D根據下文Sam所做的事情可知，要了解問題的相關信息才能修理，所以選information。
小題10:A了解相關信息，使問題明朗化，尋求可能的解決辦法。
小題11:C結合邏輯在修自行車之前，要先“確定”是自行車的那個部件出了問題。
小題12:D當Sam是自行車的閘出了問題之后，這時他就可以進一步采取措施了。此處at this time的意思是“這時”；In other words換句話說； Once in a while 偶爾；First of all首先。
小題13:D研究了問題后（人們）就可能提出一些解決建議。此處study不僅有“學習”的意思，還有“研究”的意思。
小題14:B上下文串聯(lián)。仍然以Sam修自行車為例，所以填again。
小題15:A名詞辨析。A建議B結論D決定D發(fā)現(xiàn)；其中一個建議會解決問題。
小題16:C形容詞辨析。A下一個B清楚的C最后的D新的。最終的解決方法有時來得出人意料。
小題17:A形容詞辨析。A出人意料的B晚的C清楚的D經常；最終的解決方法有時來得出人意料。
小題18:B因為想解決問題的人突然發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些東西，直接就找到了癥結所在，而這這種方法與上文所述是不同的。
小題19:A動詞辨析。A清理B分開C松開D去除，搬走；去掉口香糖的方法是清理車閘。
小題20:C動詞辨析。A記錄；B完成；C檢驗；D接受；只有經過檢驗，才能證明解決問題的方法的正確性。
點評：這是一篇說明文，通過舉例說明了解決問題的六大步驟。文章淺顯易懂，邏輯性強。本篇完形設空科學合理，考生很容易從中領會大意，從而下手會比較順利，從選項中可以看出，本大題主要還是考查了詞匯的辨析與運用，但更加注重綜合語言能力的運用，需要根據故事情節(jié)，了解詞匯用法的同時，結合語境，做出準確的判斷。

閱讀下列短文，根據所讀內容在短文后的表格中填入恰當?shù)膯卧~。注意：表格的每個空格只填一個單詞。
Educating girls quite possibly yields a higher rate of return than any other investment （投資）available in the developing world. Women's education may be unusual territory for economists（經濟學家）, but enhancing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue. And economics（經濟因素）, with its emphasis on incentives, provides guideposts that point to an explanation for why so many girls are deprived（剝奪）of an education.
　　Parents in low-income countries fail to invest（投資）in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and art kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school - the prophecy （預言) becomes self- fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious circle (惡性循環(huán)) of neglect.
　　An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be educated and healthy.
Few will dispute that educating women has great social benefits. But it has enormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a significant impact on health practices, including family planning.

We like to think our intelligence is self-made; it happens inside our heads, the product of our inner thoughts alone. But the rise of Google, Wikipedia and other online tools has made many people question the impact of these technologies on our brains. Is typing in “Who has played James Bond in the movies?” the same as our knowledge about the names like Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig? Can we say we know the answer as long as we know how to rapidly get the information on Google?
Here the question is about how we define intelligence itself. The answer appears to be interesting, because the evidence from psychological studies suggests that much of our intelligence comes from how we coordinate ourselves with other people and our environment.
An influential theory among psychologists is that we're cognitive misers(認知吝嗇者). This is the idea that we are unwilling to do mental work unless we have to. We try to avoid thinking things fully when a short cut is available. If you've ever voted for the presidential candidate(總統(tǒng)候選人) with the most honest smile, or chosen a restaurant based on how many people are already sitting in there, then you are a cognitive miser. The theory explains why we'd much rather type a zip code into Google Maps than memorize and recall the location of a place – it's so much easier to do so.
Research shows that people don't tend to rely on their memories for things they can easily access. Buildings can somehow disappear from pictures we're looking at, or the people we're talking to can be changed with someone else, and often we won't notice – a phenomenon called “change blindness”. This isn't an example of human stupidity – far from it, in fact – this is an example of mental efficiency. The mind relies on the world as a better record than memory.
Philosophers have suggested that thinking is really happening in the environment as much as it is happening in our brains. The philosopher Andy Clark called humans "natural born cyborgs(電子人)", those naturally capable of absorbing and combining new tools, ideas and abilities. In Clark's view, the route to a solution is not the issue – having the right tools really does mean you know the answers, just as much as already knowing the answer.
Rather than being forced to rely on our own resources for everything, we can share our knowledge. Technology keeps track of things for us so we don't have to, while large systems of knowledge serve the needs of society as a whole. I don't know how a computer works, or how to grow vegetables, but that knowledge is out there and I can get to benefit. The internet provides even more potential to share this knowledge. Wikipedia is one of the best examples – an increasingly large database of knowledge from which everyone can benefit.
So as well as having a physical environment – like the rooms or buildings we live or work in – we also have a mental environment, which means that when I ask you where your mind is, you shouldn’t point toward the centre of your forehead. As research shows, our minds are made up just as much by the people and tools around us as they are by the brain cells inside our skull.
小題1:Why did the writer raise the questions in Paragraph 1?
A．To find out who has played James Bond in the movies.
B．To introduce the topic to be discussed in the passage.
C．To show that he knows the answer to the questions.
D．To attract readers’ attention by mentioning James Bond.
小題2:What is the writer’s attitude towards the rise of technologies like Google and Wikipedia?
A．Supportive B．Objective C．Indifferent D．Neutral
小題3: Which of the following might the philosopher Andy Clark agree with?
A．Intelligence is something that is made by one’s brain itself.
B．Intelligence is something that only happens inside one’s head.
C．Intelligence is the product of one’s inner thoughts alone.
D．Intelligence is a mixture of the environment, people and one’s brain cells.
小題4:It is true about the phenomenon called “change blindness” that human beings____.
A．are stupid not to notice the changes
B．are efficient in mental work
C．are blind to changes around them
D．rely on memory when dealing with things
小題5:According to the text, how do technologies like Google, Wikipedia affect us?
A．They make us much more intelligent.
B．They make us lazier and more stupid.
C．They have little to do with our intelligence.
D．They have a negative effect on our intelligence.

The works of Shakespeare and Wordsworth are “rocket-boosters” to the brain and better therapy than self-help books, researchers will say this week.
Scientists, psychologists and English academics at Liverpool University have found that reading the works of the Bard and other classical writers has a beneficial effect on the mind, catches the reader’s attention and cause moments of self-reflection.
Using scanners, they monitored the brain activity of volunteers as they read works by William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth, T.S Eliot and others.
They then “translated” the texts into more “straightforward”, modern language and again monitored the readers’ brains as they read the words.
Scans showed that the more “challenging” prose （散文）and poetry set off far more electrical activity in the brain than the more pedestrian versions.
Scientists were able to study the brain activity as it responded to each word and record how it “l(fā)it up” as the readers encountered unusual words, surprising phrases or difficult sentence structure.
This “l(fā)ighting up” of the mind lasts longer than the initial electrical spark, shifting the brain to a higher gear, encouraging further reading.
The research also found that reading poetry, in particular, increases activity in the right hemisphere （半球）of the brain, an area concerned with “autobiographical memory”, helping the reader to reflect on and reappraise their own experiences in light of what they have read. The academics said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help books.
Philip Davis, an English professor who has worked on the study with the university’s magnetic resonance centre, will tell a conference this week: “Serious literature acts like a rocket-booster to the brain.
"The research shows the power of literature to shift mental pathways, to create new thoughts, shapes and connections in the young and the elderly alike.”
小題1:How do classics such as Shakespeare and Wordsworth benefit the readers?
A．They set off far less electrical activity in the brain.
B．They light up the mind shorter than the initial electrical spark.
C．They shift physical pathways in the young and the elderly.
D．They draw readers’ attention and help make self-examination.
小題2:Why does the author mention” They then” translated”… modern language“？
A．To prove that classics are more useful than ordinary versions.
B．To show self-help books act like rocket-boosters to the brain.
C．To tell serious literature sets off far less electrical activity.
D．To make known ordinary versions set off more electrical activity
小題3:What can we conclude according to the researchers?
A．Self-help books are more valuable than classics.
B．Serious literature lights up the mind shorter than ordinary versions.
C．The right hemisphere of the brain is related to autobiographical memory.
D．Literature has a beneficial effect only on the mind of the young.
小題4:Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．Ordinary Versions Create New Thoughts
B．Modern Language Increases the Brain
C．Classics Help lmprove the Brain Activity
D．Self-help Books, Rocket-boosters

Due to the increasing number of violence acts produced in schools all over the world, more and more parents prefer to have their children educated at home rather than at school． This way they can ensure their safety and well-being, although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge of the safety of the students．
The main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the children’s time． They want to do everything they watch on TV and never think of the consequences, and they may hurt a classmate or a teacher．
On the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the children’s results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better results. When a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he can’t probably see what each of them is doing, how he is writing, or if he understands the explanations． At home the teacher can explain in details everything the child doesn’t understand as many times as he considers proper. And many times the child grows fond of the teacher at home, who becomes his best friend, and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to.
However, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home, because school makes children communicate and socialize． Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to him only makes the child’s character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life is． Staying in a crystal ball only does harm to the child．
All in all, schools have been created to help children, not to harm them, so it’s best to keep children in these special places, where they learn, laugh, have fun and make new friends
小題1:The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ________
A．teach parents the ways to keep their children safe
B．show solutions to developing children’s character
C．analyze an education problem and give opinions
D．explain the main reason for violence acts in schools
小題2:Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A．Advantages and Disadvantages of Private Classes
B．Who is to Blame, Parents or Schools?
C．Which Is Better, School Study or Home Study?
D．The Relationship between Teachers and Children
小題3:What does “a crystal ball” in the passage refer to?
A．A toy that can be used for entertainment
B．A safe and comfortable environment
C．A round object that is made of crystal
D．An obstacle that is hard to overcome
小題4:We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．violence TV programs have bad effects on children’s behavior
B．the teacher at home is more patient than the teacher at school
C．children today are weak from lack of sense of right and wrong
D．there are too many students in class for a teacher to teach

Scientists in Mexico have just begun a new study of one of the world’s biggest pyramids: the Pyramid of the Sun, north of Mexico City. They’re putting lots of small, high-tech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.
The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt’s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing.
In AD 820, an Arab king named Abdullah AL Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three rooms --- the Queen’s Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King’s Chamber. But to their surprise, the men didn’t find the treasures they wanted. The Queen’s and King’s Chambers were both empty! Where were the King’s mummy and his treasures? Had someone already taken them away? The huge stone doors at the pyramid’s entrance were still closed when AL Manum’s men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out?
Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.
In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid. Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid, but they only found a mysterious locked stone door.

The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet （彗星）is heading towards the earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the earth.
On 17 July, a piece of 4 kilometers wide comet enters the Earth’s atmosphere with a massive explosion（爆炸）. About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the seabed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards form the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned（淹死）.
Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina. Earthquakes and volcanoes ash set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north won’t escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. The sun won’t be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million people remain alive.
Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the earth. The dinosaurs were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The dinosaurs couldn’t live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. Will we meet the same end?
小題1:What is mainly described in the passage?
A．A historic discovery.
B．An event in imagination.
C．A research on space.
D．A scientific adventure.
小題2:When the first piece hits the South Atlantic, it causes________.
A．an earthquakeB．hunger
C．an Earth explosionD．huge waves
小題3:Why can’t the northern half of the earth escape for long?
A．Because the land is covered with water.
B．Because the light and heat form the sun cannot reach the earth.
C．Because people there cannot live at the temperature of zero.
D．Because wars break out among countries.
小題4:By giving the example of dinosaurs, the author tries to prove_________.
A．animals could not live in the cold climate
B．what happened 65 million years ago was an invented story
C．the human beings will die out in 2094
D．the Earth could be hit by other objects in space

There have been big changes in the attitudes of most parents over the last few years. Physical punishment is banned in schools in most countries, and in many countries, there are moves to ban all physical punishment of children even at home. However, many parents still believe that they have the right to use some physical punishments to deal with certain misbehavior at certain ages.
It’s easy to find reasons to allow some physical punishments. One issue is that many parents find it very difficult to abandon physical punishment completely. Parents argue that this was the way they were brought up and that it didn’t do any harm to them. They believe that for the child’s sake they have the right to discipline the child in any way they consider fit, including using some physical punishments. The other one is that physical punishment can be quick and effective. There is not much point reasoning with a screaming child in the supermarket.
However, there are several reasons why we should stop using physical punishment. One point is that most parents are not trained to deal with misbehaving children. They don’t have enough resources or choices to handle the situation. As a result, they immediately react by hitting the child even if there are other solutions to the problem. Another point is that unless people are challenged or forced to change their belief, they may keep following negative habits. An example is seat belt use —now most people wear seat belts without thinking, while years ago the idea of using seat belts was strange to most people. In the same way, banning physical punishment will force people to change their habits.
In conclusion, parents have to change some of their belief and ideas about how children should be raised. It is possible to avoid the use of physical force, and doing so will help us move closer to the dream of removing violence from our society.
小題1:According to the first paragraph, many parents think that ____________.
A．they are free to use physical punishment on their children
B．most of the children behave badly in their daily life
C．they have changed their attitudes towards their children
D．physical punishment is effective to educate their children
小題2:Many parents won’t give up physical punishment because _____________.
A．they are disappointed with their children
B．they were brought up just in the same way
C．they don’t want to hurt their children badly
D．they don’t know what to do with their children
小題3:The author gives the example of using seat belts in order to show ____________.
A．most people are used to wearing seat belts
B．it’s not difficult to change some negative habits
C．seat belts are really very necessary and useful
D．people won’t change their old habits unless forced
小題4:The main purpose of the author in writing this passage is to ____________.
A．talk about a ban on using physical punishment
B．tell us we should educate our children in other ways
C．advise parents to give up using physical punishment
D．suggest physical punishment should be used at home

B
As an effect of the high fuel prices spent on bus transportation, some American schools are changing to a four-day week. That means longer days instead of the traditional Monday through Friday schedule.
Having been approved for three years and beginning in the fall, students in the Maccray school district in Minnesota will be in school from Tuesday to Friday. Each school day will be 65 minutes longer. Officials say the district expects to save about sixty-five thousand dollars a year in transportation costs.
In new Mexico, the first school district changed to a four-day week in 1974 because of the Arab oil boycott(抵制). Now, 17 out of 89 districts use it.
In Custer, South Dakota, students have been going to school four days a week since 1995. Superintendent Tim Creal says the change has saved about one million dollars over just the past eight years. He sees other benefits, too. Students get more instructional time, and activities that used to take up class time are now held on non-school days. He says that in the future, the growth of online classes could make it possible to require even fewer days in school. High fuel prices are driving college students to take more online classes.
A four-day school week sounds like a great idea for students and teachers, but working parents may have to pay for child care for that fifth day.
小題1:According to Tim Creal, what makes it possible to have even fewer days in school?
A．The increasing number of private tutors.(私人教師)
B．The development of teaching methods.
C．The increase in the number of online classes.
D．The growth in the income of Americans.
小題2: It can be learned from the passage that______
A．students will be in school from Monday to Tuesday.
B．four-day week was first carried out in South Dakota.
C．Maccray will save one million dollars every year.
D．Minnesota state has approved the four-day week plan
小題3:The passage is mainly about______
A．some school’s four-day week planB．districts using a four-day week.
C．how to save on transportation fees.D．expense of school transportation.
