　 When a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins, do you hurry on, not knowing what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money? What should our attitude to beggars be? There can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from. It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.

Certainly, most of the world’s great religions (宗教) order us to be open-hearted and share what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves. But has the world changed? Maybe what was morally (道德方面) right in the old days, when one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help, is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give to beggars. Let us look at their arguments.

　 First, some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually make a good living from begging. Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil (惡行). Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs. Thirdly, there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor, but that is no reason for losing one’s sense of pride and self-dependence.

　　　　　 Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and receive help.

　 It is hard to come to any final conclusion; there are various cases and we must deal with them differently. A few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that does not take sway the moral goodness of the giver.

53. What is mainly discussed in the passage?

　 A. Moral deeds of people.

B. Religious activities of the church.

　 C. Moral goodness of the giver.

D. Arguments on giving to beggars.

54. What can we infer from the sentence “But has the world changed?” in the second paragraph?

　 A. People no longer know who suffers misfortune in the village.

　 B. Some people will not do what was morally right in the past.

　 C. We don’t meet with those who need help any more.

　 D. Now it is the government’s duty to help the beggars.

55. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

　 A. Some people dress up to pretend to be beggars.

　 B. Some beggars want money to help their children go to school.

　 C. Some beggars use the money to buy drugs.

　 D. Some beggars have no excuse for begging.

56. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that it is hard to come to any final conclusion, because 　　　.

　 A. the cases can be so different

　 B. there are so many beggars

　 C. there is so much money wasted

　 D. there are so many different arguments

　　Last week, about 600 teenagers in the US imagined a future changed by technology in which their lessons are taught by robots and they learn about celebrities and alien languages．They believe they will use jet packs(噴氣背包)，and hoverboards(旋轉飛盤)，as everyday transport．

　　All the participants of the survey are teenagers born into the Internet age．The study is to show how the first cyber(計算機的)generation dream about a future life created by advanced technology．

閱讀理解

　　There is no doubt that music plays a powerful role in our lives．It can calm our tired nerves after a busy day of work．Music even has the power to move us to tears when it stirs(激起)an emotional reaction．How then, does music play a role in special education?

　　If music has the ability to touch those hidden places we all carry inside, it proves an important tool for the special education teacher．For students with emotional problems, music can help soothe(撫慰)sadness．Consider the child that arrives in class depressed and upset．If music can indeed relax and calm him, he is more likely to focus and participate in class．

　　Dr．R．Joseph, author of Behavioral Neurology, writes, “It is well recorded that patients with left hemisphere(大腦半球)damage, who may be unable to speak or recognize words, can sing a melody(曲調)．”

　　For this reason, some special education teachers have found it helpful to set their lessons to music．When students cannot understand or remember certain things, singing them helps make it easier．

　　Nature magazine reported “Music training helps underachievers．In Rhode Island, researchers studied eight public school first grade classes．Half of the classes became ‘text－arts’groups, receiving ongoing music training．After seven months, the students were given a test．The tested group had caught up with their fellow students in reading and surpassed(超過)their classmates in math by 22 percent．In the second year of the project, the tested students widened this even further．Students were also tested on attitude and behavior．Classroom teachers also noted improvement in these areas．”

　　It seems music does, indeed, play an important role in education．For the special education teacher, this is especially encouraging．

(1)

The first paragraph is mainly about ________．

[　　]

A．

the role of music in education

B．

the importance of music in life

C．

the relationship between music and work results

D．

the relationship between music and behavior

(2)

For students with emotional problems, music might be ________．

[　　]

A．

a toy

B．

a punishment

C．

a medicine

D．

a puzzle

(3)

According to Dr．R．Joseph, people with left hemisphere damage ________．

[　　]

A．

are unable to recognize people

B．

can produce some musical sounds

C．

can become special education teachers

D．

might suffer right hemisphere damage too

(4)

The tested students mentioned in the fifth paragraph ________．

[　　]

A．

behaved badly after the study

B．

Didn't show any difference after the study

C．

had done well in their reading and math before

D．

received certain music education during the study

科目：高中英語 來源：2012-2013學年吉林省汪清縣第六中學高一9月月考英語試題（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

Englishmen speak British English and Americans speak American English. A student is learning to speak British English. He often asks himself, “Can Americans understand me when I speak British English?” Learners often ask “What’s the difference between British English and American English?”Certainly there are some differences between British and American English. The Englishmen say “Have you a pen?” While Americans say “Do you have a pen?” The pronunciation is sometimes different. Americans often sound “r” in words like “bird” and “hurt”. The British speakers don’t sound the “r” in these words. There are differences in spelling. For example, “colour” and “neighbour” are British while “color” and “neighbor” are American. These differences in grammar, pronunciation and spelling are not important, however. For the most part, British and American English are the same language. When Englishmen and Americans are talking with each other, they don’t need an interpreter(翻譯). Maybe some day they need, but not now.
