We live in a digital world now, and a student’s technology needs have changed. For the early years, when you are in primary school, you can get by with no technology at all. Even if you have a computer, it’s a good idea to get children familiar with libraries. At this age, trips to the library are like family outings.
As you get closer to middle school, a computer with Internet access becomes more of a necessity. Teachers will often give assignments that require a student to use the Internet for research. After a computer, technology choices for students become more difficult to make – especially when it comes to cell-phones. Kids will beg their parents for a cell-phone, especially in middle school. For many parents, it’s a safety issue: They want to know that their kids can reach them quickly if necessary. For teachers, cell phones can be used to record lessons when students are absent. But many teachers dislike cell-phones. Some kids send messages or have talks in the class. Sending messages also raises the problem of cheating on exams. More and more schools are now forbidding the use of cell-phones.
Many kids see iPods as necessary things to have. IPods are great for music, but do they do anything good for your children’s education? Maybe they do. That’s the opinion of Doug Johnson, an educator for 30 years. Johnson says that educators should accept all new forms of technology in the classroom, including iPods. “Some do more with their cell- phones than we can do with our laptops,” he jokes. “I don’t think we should be afraid. The truth is that it’s easier to change the way we teach than to change the technology habits of an entire generation.”
小題1:According to author, primary school children should___.
A．use the computer and the Internet regularly
B．a(chǎn)sk their parents to buy them cell-phones
C．buy iPods to listen to music
D．go to libraries to read more books
小題2:Why do parents agree to buy their children cell-phones?
A．They want their children to be cool.
B．They think cell-phones be helpful to their study.
C．They want to keep in touch with their children.
D．They want their children to keep up to date.
小題3:The following are all reasons why many teachers dislike cell-phones EXCEPT ____.
A．cell-phones can be used to cheat on exams
B．schoolchildren will send messages during class
C．cell-phones can be used to record lessons
D．schoolchildren might talk on them during class
小題4: What does the underlined word “that” refers to?
A．iPods can be used to listen to music.
B．iPods can be helpful for children’s education.
C．iPods can be used to play games.
D．iPods are necessary for children’s lives.
小題5:We can infer from what Doug Johnson said that _____.
A．cell-phones are not useful to students
B．teachers should let students use cell-phones
C．it’s better for teachers to change their teaching methods
D．schoolchildren should follow the trends(潮流) of fashion

When the six very best students from different cities in Guangdong Province all together chose universities in Hong Kong ; when the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University ; when the highest enrollment(錄取) rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.
Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact answer without hesitation . The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.
There’s no doubt to call this HK craze (狂熱), which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.
How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua University and attract so many mainland students?
First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.
Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual (雙語) education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.
Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.
Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University be calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it .
The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action-taking of mainland universities , they can perform better together with HK universities.
At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees (學(xué)費) are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities . It’s time to move.
小題1:What is the passage mainly talking about?
A．Some thoughts brought by the enrollment of HK universities.
B．Higher education in Hong Kong.
C．The competition between HK University and Beijing University.
D．The fall of mainland universities.
小題2:Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because________.
A．many students now would love to study abroad to get a better experience
B．they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities
C．HK Universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study
D．Beijing University has lost its worldwide reputation
小題3:   From the passage we can see HK universities________.
A．didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland
B．didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular
C．have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there
D．a(chǎn)re proud of their teaching staff and facilities.
小題4:What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move .” in the last paragraph ?
A．Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.
B．The opportunities come for top students to study abroad .
C．Mainland universities should make full preparations to enroll Hong Kong students .
D．Top students should be offered further education free of charge .

When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter (交款處) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.
Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I  would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now."
Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.

I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.
Several weeks ago，I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines．I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again．I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me．I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate when he stood up．Could he be more intent while standing up？
This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success．This child would have the discipline to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life．
Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality traits，and all you can do is loving and accepting them．As parents，throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids' best cheerleaders，guiding them and helping them find their way.
I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate．Obviously, he is concentrating just in his own way and not mine．We need to learn to accept our kids' ways of doing things．Some way may have worked for me but doesn't mean we need to carry it through generations．There is nothing sweeter than being individual and unique．It makes us free and happy and that's just the way I want my kids to live their own life．

Kids who receive special education are, without doubt, the hardest working children in any school. When they are having difficulty learning basic literacy and number concepts, when they break rules, when they need more services, support and adult attention than their peers, then they are struggling the hardest. In psychology, we are trained to think that if we are feeling angry or confused when sitting with a patient, then we are probably feeling just what our patient is feeling. The same is true for students with disabilities. Whatever we feel when we work with them, they are probably feeling as they work with us.
If you have a disability that affects your education, then you have a brain disorder. Because education, even in mathematics, is largely verbal（用言辭）, most brain disorders responsible for educational disabilities affect language, and how you process words and ideas in written and oral form. To imagine how much effort a child with a language disability spends each school day, imagine yourself attending a school today taught in a language you had a basic understanding of. Imagine though, that while you seem fluent to others, you have trouble when people talk too fast, use idioms or expressions.
When adults and classmates blame, or criticize kids who receive special education, they are struggling with their own confusion. It is difficult to imagine the world as it is lived by someone with an educational disability. It is difficult to understand how someone who can be so "normal" can have so many problems. It is so easy to imagine that if they just tried harder... without understanding that just to do the ordinary, kids with disabilities are making an extraordinary effort.
小題1:What is the purpose of the author by writing the passage?
A．to introduce how hard to be a special education teacher.
B．to think highly of the children with disabilities.
C．to show the disabled have much trouble in understanding.
D．to call on the society to care for the disabled.
小題2: If a disabled kid learns number concepts, he __________.
A．won’t work as hard as a normal.
B．will work double as hard as a normal.
C．will be as patient as the normal.
D．will think of his disability first.
小題3:If a kid has a disability affecting his education, he will ________.
A．have a hard time using the language.
B．be too foolish to learn maths .
C．not understand what others are saying.
D．have a lot of trouble in remembering words.
小題4:Before you intend to blame a kid receiving special education, __________.
A．you should try to understand what he is saying.
B．you should imagine the world he lives in.
C．you should imagine yourself in his shoes.
D．you should think of the education he has received.

Malaria, the world’s most widespread parasitic (寄生蟲引起的)disease, kills as many as three million people every year—almost all of whom are under five, very poor, and African. In most years, more than five hundred million cases of illness result from the disease, although exact numbers are difficult to assess because many people don't (or can’t) seek care. It is not unusual for a family earning less than two hundred dollars a year to spend a quarter of its income on malaria treatment, and what they often get no longer works. In countries like Tanzania, Mozambique, and the Gambia, no family, village, hospital, or workplace can remain unaffected for long.        
Malaria starts suddenly, with violent chills, which are soon followed by an intense fever and, often, headaches. As the parasites multiply, they take over the entire body. Malaria parasites live by eating the red blood cells they infect. They can also attach themselves to blood vessels in the brain. If it doesn’t kill you, malaria can happen again and again for years. The disease is passed on to humans by female mosquitoes infected with one of four species of a parasite. Together, the mosquito and the parasite are the most deadly couple in the history of the earth and one of the most successful. Malaria has five thousand genes, and its ability to change rapidly to defend itself and resist new drugs has made it nearly impossible to control. Studies show that mosquitoes are passing on the virus more frequently, and there are more outbreaks in cities with large populations. Some of the disease's spread is due to global warming.
For decades, the first-choice treatment for malaria parasites in Africa has been chloroquine, a chemical which is very cheap and easy to make. Unfortunately, in most parts of the world, malaria parasites have become resistant to it. Successful alternatives that help prevent resistance are already available, but they have been in short supply and are very expensive. If these drugs should fail, nobody knows what would come next.  
小題1:According to paragraph 1, many people don’t seek care because ________.
A．they are too poor
B．it is unusual to seek care
C．they can remain unaffected for long
D．there are too many people suffering from the disease
小題2:People suffering from malaria ________.
A．have to kill female mosquitoesB．have ability to defend parasites
C．have their red blood cells infectedD．have sudden fever, followed by chills
小題3:Which of the following may be the reason for the wide spread of the disease?
A．Its resistance to global warming.
B．Its ability to pass on the virus frequently.
C．Its outbreaks in cities with large populations.
D．Its ability to defend itself and resist new drugs.
小題4: It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A．no drugs have been found to treat the disease
B．the alternative treatment is not easily available to most people
C．malaria has developed its ability to resist parasites
D．nobody knows what will be the drug to treat the disease

Good Genes Mean Long Life
Scientists have discovered that living to the age of 100 may have nothing to do with the lifestyle you lead and everything to do with the type of genes you have.
For the lucky carriers of “Methuselah” genes, worries over smoking, eating unhealthily and not getting enough exercise may not be as necessary as to those of us without the special gene pattern (組合).
The “Methuselah” genes could give extra protection against the diseases of old age such as cancer and heart disease. They could also protect people against the effects of the unhealthy lifestyles that we believe will lead us to an early death, scientists say. However, the genes are very rare.
The genes include ADIPOQ, which is found in about 10 percent of young people but in nearly 30 percent of people living past 100. They also include the CETP and the ApoC3 genes, which are found in 10 percent of young people, but in about 20 percent of people over 100 years old.
Some of those genes were discovered by a research group at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, led by Professor Nir Barzilai. The team studied the genes of over 500 people over 100 years old, and their children.
The studies show that tiny mutations (變異) in the make-up of some genes can greatly increase a person’s lifespan (壽命). Barzilai told a Royal Society conference that the discovery of such genes gave scientists clear targets for developing drugs that could prevent age-related diseases, allow people to live longer and stay healthy.
David Gems, a researcher at University College London, believes that drugs to slow ageing will become widespread.
“If we know which genes control longevity (長壽) then we can … target them with drugs. That makes it possible to slow down ageing,” he told The Times.
“Much of the pain and suffering in the world are caused by ageing. If we can find a way to reduce that, then we are obliged (義不容辭的) to take it.”
小題1:According to the article, which of the following is the most important if a person is to live to the age of 100?
A．Eating healthy food every day.B．Having the right types of genes.
C．Having a healthy lifestyle.D．Taking drugs that prevent ageing.
小題2:According to the article, the ApoC3 gene is found in ________ of people over 100 years old.
A．10% B．20%C．30% D．50%
小題3:Which of the following statements is TRUE of the research led by Professor Nir Barzilai?
A．The team studied the genes of over 100 people over 100 years of age.
B．The researchers found that mutations in certain genes lead to longer life.
C．The researchers found ways to develop drugs that could cure age-related diseases.
D．The study suggested that most people have genes that could lengthen their lives.
小題4: According to David Gems, ________.
A．drugs to slow ageing will be very expensive
B．modern science will be able to find more longevity genes
C．it is the duty of medical scientists to fight the problems of ageing
D．scientists can make new genes that will allow longer life

When Emily Beardmore first heard that a trip was being planned by the biology class at Windsor High School, she thought about how much fun it would be.
“I thought it would be a really good experience to go with other friends and teachers to another country in an environment other than a vacation environment,” the 17-year-old girl said.
A few months later, Emily got her chance when she and 14 of her classmates, along with biology teacher Tamara Pennington went to Costa Rica for eight days in late May.
“It was not just a tour,” said Pennington, who organized the trip. “You can go any place in the world on just a tour. This one was really working with the sea turtles (海龜) and practicing conservation(保護). It just seemed like the perfect science field trip for kids who think they want to get into science to see what it's really like to be out in the field and enjoy themselves.”
Emily said her time on the turtle program, which was the focus of the trip, was “crazy.”“We were walking on the beach at night and you can’t see anything—just see a big black dot.” She said with a laugh. “I was not expecting the turtles to be that big.” The turtles are leatherback turtles, which are becoming extinct (滅絕) because their eggs are used as food.
“When they would move their legs while laying their eggs they were really hard to control because they were a lot more powerful than you would imagine,” Emily said.
Once the eggs were collected, the students took them back to a hatchery(孵化場) and dug holes to copy the hole the mother turtle had made and then buried the eggs for the 60 days needed to hatch.
“The experience was so cool,” Emily said. “You go to another country to see what their culture is like and learn what their everyday lives are like. It made me really want to help out my mom a lot more than I do, and value what I have.”
小題1:What did Pennington consider the trip to be?
A．It was a common tour to a foreign country.
B．It was a journey to practice what students learned.
C．It was to attract students’ interest in science.
D．It was a trip to do practical science activities.
小題2:From what Emily said on her turtle program, we know that     .
A．she was afraid of walking on the beach at night
B．she didn’t dare to catch the powerful turtles
C．she had thought turtles were small animals
D．she got crazy at the sight of turtles at night
小題3:What did Emily learn from her experience?
A．She learned to be grateful to her teachers.
B．She understood the importance of what she had.
C．She realized the beauty of foreign culture.
D．She knew the importance of everyday life
小題4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Teens Help Fight Turtle Extinction.
B．Teens Take a tour to Costa Rica.
C．Teens Have a Research on Turtles.
D．Teens Learn to be Independent.
