Directions:-|||-Read the following four texts.Answer the questions after each text by choosing A,-|||-B,C or D.-|||-Homework has never been terribly popular with students and even many-|||-parents,but in recent years it has been particularly scorned.School districts across the-|||-country,most recently Los Angeles Unified,are revising their thinking on this-|||-educational ritual.Unfort L.A.Unified has produced an inflexible policy-|||-which mandates that with the exception of some advanced courses, homework-|||-may no longer count for more than 10% of a student`s academic grade.-|||-This rule is meant to address the difficulty that students from impoverishe-|||-or chaotic homes might have in completing their homework But the policy is-|||-unclear and contradictory Certainly, no homework should be assigned that-|||-students cannot complete on their own or that they cannot do without expensive-|||-equipment.But if the district is cssentially giving a pass to students who do not do-|||-their homework because of complicated family lives,it is going riskily close to-|||-the implication that standards need to be lowered for poor children.-|||-District administrators s that homework will still be a part of schooling;-|||-teachers are allowed to assign as much of it as they want.But with homework-|||-counting for no more than 10%of their grades,students can easily skip half their-|||-homework and see very little di lifference on their report cards.Some students-|||-might do well on state tests without completing their homework,but what about-|||-the students who performed well on the tests and did their homework?It is quite-|||-possible that the homework helped.Yet rather than empowering teachers to find-|||-what works best for their students,the policy imposes a flat,across-t -the-board rule.-|||-At the same time,the policy addresses none of the truly thorny questions-|||-about homework.If the district finds homework to be unimportant to its students`-|||-academic achievement,it should move to reduce or eliminate the assignments,not-|||-make them count for almost nothing.Conversely, if homework matters, it should-|||-account for a significant portion of the grade.Meanwhile,this policy does nothing-|||-to ensure that the homework students receive is mearingf gful or appropriate to their-|||-age and the subject,or that teachers are not assigning more than they are w willing-|||-to review and correct.-|||-The homework rules should be put on hold while the school board,which is-|||-responsible for sctting cducational policy,looks into the matter and conducts-|||-public hearings. It is not too late for L.A.Unified to do homework right.-|||-21.It is implied in Paragraph I that nowadays homework __-|||-[A] is receiving more criticism-|||-[B] is gaining more preferences-|||-[C]is no longer an educational ritual-|||-[D] is not required for ad vanced courses-|||-22.L.A.Unified has made the rule about homework mainly because poor students-|||-[A]tend to have moderate cxpectation for their education-|||-[B] have asked for a different cducarional standard-|||-[C]may have problems finishing their homework-|||-[D] have voiced their complaints about homework-|||-23.According to Paragraph 3,one problem with the policy is that it may __-|||-___-|||-[A]result in students` indifference to their report cards-|||-[B] undermine the authority of state tests-|||-[C]restrict teachers`power in education-|||-[D] discourage students from doing homework-|||-24.As mentioned in Paragraph 4,a key quostion unanswered about homework is-|||-whether __-|||-[A]it should be climinated-|||-[B] it counts much in schooling-|||-[C] it places extra burdens on teachers-|||-[D] it is important for grades-|||-25.A suitable title for this text could be __-|||-[A]AF Faulty Approach to Homework-|||-[B]A Welcomed Policy for Poor Students-|||-[C] Thomy Qucstions about Homework-|||-[D] Wrong Interpretations of an Educational Policy

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re "hot". That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes before noon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar saying as: "Get up, John! You’re late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling end when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll work better at your low point. Get off to slow start which saves your energy. When you get up, sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.You are advised to act slowly when you rise in the morning because it will______. A.help to keep your energy for the day’s workB.help you to control your mood early in the dayC.enable you to concentrate on your routine workD.keep your energy cycle under control all day

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty
