The computer is a crucial social tool today as the telephone was decades ago, and many kids live and breathe on the Internet. This is part of why cyberbullying (网络霸凌) can be so dangerous. Targets of cyberbullies face threats and attacks in emails and instant messages, but it is not only fear that cyberbullying can create.With cyberbullying, the potential for public humiliation (羞辱) has been expanded from a target’s classmates or school to the entire world. To be humiliated in front of a classroom of students is bad enough, but to be humiliated for the amusement of thousands is more than most kids can bear.So, as parents, what should you do to deal with cyberbullying?First, do not respond to cyberbullying attacks. This is what the bully wants. They want you to engage with them. They want to manipulate you into responding. If you respond in any way that is emotional or lets them know that they are getting to you and are able to make you upset, it only encourages them.Second, report cyberbullying to the police and schools. You need to inform appropriate authority about the cyberbullying, or they cannot take correct action. Cyberbullying is not just a problem for the victim.27. Why is it suggested that parents not respond to cyberbullying attacks?A. Because they will just be falling into the attacker’s trap.B. Because it will encourage more harmful cyberbullying attacks.C. Because it will make parents more upset.D. Because it can reveal too much personal information

The experiment is based upon the idea that farmers who’re protecting their herd from lions would shoot and kill lions in an effort to protect their livestock. While this makes a lot of sense, it results in many lion deaths that (27)_____ would have been unnecessary. Researchers in Australia have been (28)_____ and testing a method of trickery to make lions think they are being watched by the painted eyes on cow butts. This idea is based on the principle that lions and other (29)_____ are far less likely to attack when they feel they are being watched. As conservation areas become smaller, lions are increasingly coming into contact with human populations, which are expanding to the (30)_____ of these protected areas. Efforts like painting eyes on cow butts may seem crazy at first, but they could make actual headway in the fight for conservation. “If the method works, it could provide farmers in Botswana—and (31)_____—with a low-cost, sustainable tool to protect their livestock, and a way to keep lions safe from being killed.” Lions are (32)_____ ambush (埋伏) hunters, so when they feel their prey has (33)_____ them, they usually give up on the hunt.

Through satellite tracking of both the herd and the lions in the area, they will be able to (35)_____ if their psychological trickery will work to help keep farmers from shooting lions.

Section C Directions There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B) C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage. Textbooks represen an 11 billion dollar industry, up from 8billion in 2014. Textbook publisher Pearson is the largest publisher any kind- in the world. It costs about million to create a new textbook. A freshman textbook will have dozens of contributors from subject-matter experts through graphic and layout artists to expert reviewers and classroom testers. Textbook publishers connect professors instructors and students in ways that alternatives such as open e-textbooks and open educational resources, simply do not. This connection happens not only by means of collaborative development, review and testing, but also at conferences where faculty regularly decide on their textbooks and curricula for the coming year. It is true that textbook publishers have recently reported losses largely due to students renting or buying used print textbooks But this can be chalked up to the excessively high cost of their books which has increased over 1,000 percent since 1977. A restructuring of the textbook industry may well be in order. But this does not mean the end of the textbook itself. While they may not be as dynamic as an iPad, textbooks are not passive or lifeless For example, over the centuries they have simulated ((模拟) dialogues in a number of ways. From 1800to to the present day, textbooks have done this by posing questions for students to answer inductively (归纳性地). That means students are asked to use their individual experience to come up with answers to general questions. Today's psychology texts, for example, ask: How much of your personality do you think you inherited?" while ones in physics say: How can you predict where the ball you tossed will land?" Experts observe that textbooks come in layers, something like an onion." For an active learner, engaging with a textbook can be an interactive experience. Readers proceed at their own pace. They customize their books by engaging with different layers and linkages. Highlighting Post-It notes, dog- ears and other techniques allow for further customization that students value in print books over digital forms of books. 1 What does the passage say about open educationa resources? A) They contribute to teaching as much as to learning. B) They don't profit as much as traditional textbooks do. C) They can't connect professors and students as textbooks do. D) They compete fiercely for customer with textbook producers. 2 What is the main cause of the publishers' losses? A) Failure to meet student need. B) Industry restructuring.C) Emergence of e-books D) Falling sales 3.What does the textbook industry need to do? A) Reform its structures. C) Find replacements for printed textbooks B) Cut its retail prices. D) Change its business strategy periodically4What are students expected to do in the learning process? A) Think carefully before answering each question. B) Ask questions based on their own understanding.C) Answer questions using their personal experience. D) Give answers showing their respective personality. 5What do experts say about students using textbooks? A) They can digitalize the prints easily C) They can purchase customize versions B) They can learn in an interactive way. D) They can adapt the material themselve

ㅤAs cities balloon with growth，access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find.If you're lucky，there might be a pocket park near where you live，but it's unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.ㅤPast research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans，but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.ㅤThe research team focused on a large urban park.They surveyed several hundred park -goers，asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park.The researchers then examined these submissions，coding （编码） experiences into different categories.For example，one participant's experience of "We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a while" was assigned the categories "sitting at beach" and "listening to waves."ㅤAcross the 320 submissions，a pattern of categories the researchers call a "nature language" began to emerge.After the coding of all submissions，half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors.These include encountering wildlife，walking along the edge of water，and following an established trail.ㅤNaming each nature experience creates a usable language，which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them.For example，the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park.Back downtown during a workday，they can enjoy a more domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break.ㅤ"We're trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back into our daily lives.And for that to happen，we also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it，" said Peter Kahn，a senior author of the study.（1）What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text？ ____ A．Pocket parks are now popular.B．Wild nature is hard to find in cities.C．Many cities are overpopulated.D．People enjoy living close to nature.（2）Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories？ ____ A．To compare different types of park-goers.B．To explain why the park attracts tourists.C．To analyze the main features of the park.D．To find patterns in the visitors' summaries.（3）What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 5？ ____ A．Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.B．Young people are too busy to interact with nature.C．The same nature experience takes different forms.D．The nature language enhances work performance.（4）What should be done before we can interact with nature according to Kahn？ ____ A．Language study.B．Environmental conservation.C．Public education.D．Intercultural communication.
