6.A poet is in his words
       The writings of William Shakespeare are today little read by young people in Britian.His young readership is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.
       Still,in British schools,____________ to study the poet,and when something is made compulsory,usually the result is boredom,resentment or both.Shakespeare,Chareles Dickens,Jane Austen-for many of the young,reading them can seem like being forced to eat medicine,especially when people are at an age when they are beginning to discover themselves and wanting to claim their independence.
       This was my experience of the classics at school.But when I reached my late teenage years,I had a change of heart.Like every other young person since the dawn of time,the world confused me.I wanted answers,so I turned to books to find them.
       I went on to take a PhD in literature and have taught the subject in universities in Britain and China.I have never regretted it.There is something in literature that people want,even if they don't read books.
       You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works,the recent film version of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice being a case in point.These popular adaptations may help increase people's interest in the classic.
       Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare's actual play.If that is the case then I welcome the trend.But do not make the mistake of thinking that it is the same thing.Shakespeare is a poet and his greatness is in his language.Reading someone else's rewriting of his work is like peeling (剝皮) a banana,throwing away the fruit,and eating the skin.Take on the original.It really is worth the effort.
                                                                             
76.Find a sentence from the text which can explain the title.Shakespeare is a poet and his greatness is in his language
77.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words to complete the sentence.(within 5 words)it is compulsory/required
78.Why are the adaptations of great works popular?They may help increase people's interest in the classic.
79.Do you think it necessary to read the original?Why?(within 30 words)Yes,it is.Reading the original,we can really grasp the spirits of his works and can enjoy its language.
80.Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.讀他(莎士比亞)作品的改寫本就如同將香蕉剝皮后,棄其肉而食其皮..

分析 本文主要講述在英國(guó)學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)莎士比亞作品的原因.

解答 76.Shakespeare is a poet and his greatness is in his language.
77.it is compulsory/required
78.They may help increase people's interest in the classic.
79.Yes,it is.Reading the original,we can really grasp the spirits of his works and can enjoy its language.
80.讀他(莎士比亞)作品的改寫本就如同將香蕉剝皮后,棄其肉而食其皮.
76.Shakespeare is a poet and his greatness is in his language.細(xì)節(jié)題.A poet is in his words句意是:詩(shī)人在他的話語(yǔ)里.詩(shī)人是莎士比亞,語(yǔ)言就是他語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用的偉大.
77.it is compulsory/required  細(xì)節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章第 二段when something is made compulsory,usually the result is boredom,resentment or both. 可知當(dāng)某件事成為必須的,通常結(jié)果是乏味,不滿的.因此在英國(guó)的學(xué)校里學(xué)習(xí)詩(shī)歌是必修課程.
78.They may help increase people's interest in the classic.細(xì)節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二 段These popular adaptations may help increase people's interest in the classic.
 可知偉大作品的改編受歡迎的原因是它可以幫助人們提高對(duì)古典作品的興趣.
79.Yes,it is.Reading the original,we can really grasp the spirits of his works and can enjoy its language.細(xì)節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章最后一段Take on the original.It really is worth the effort.可知為了能掌握作品的精髓,還是閱讀原著更好.
80.讀他(莎士比亞)作品的改寫本就如同將香蕉剝皮后,棄其肉而食其皮.翻譯題.本句中Reading someone else's rewriting of his work 是動(dòng)名詞做主語(yǔ),and連接三個(gè)動(dòng)名詞,like是介詞,意思是像~一樣.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀表達(dá)題時(shí),理清文章的脈絡(luò)、掌握文章的主旨大意,并能運(yùn)用簡(jiǎn)潔的語(yǔ)言表達(dá).回答要有針對(duì)性觀點(diǎn)要明確.不要摘抄文章原句.

14.Top six ways to teach values to your child
In a consumer-driven society that broadcasts values that don't reflect what you believe,how can parents teach values to their kids?Here are ideas to help you:
◆(36)C Kids love to hear stories about your childhood.Weave some moral dilemmas and you'll get great opportunities to teach values to them.
◆Live your own life according to your values-walk and talk (言行一致).Kids learn by imitating,especially at a young age.Don't give them confusing signals; follow your own values every moment.
◆Pay attention to who else might be teaching values to your kids.Get to know your kid's teachers,coaches,relatives,etc.(37)E Know their values and beliefs as well.
◆Read them fairy tales when they're younger.Fairy tales capture the imagination of kids and can easily lead to a discussion of values.(38)G
◆Involve your kids in art,activities,or helping others while limiting TV and video games.(39)B Allow them to experience helping others and involve them in activities that will expand their creativity.
◆Have high expectations for your kids'value system.(40)D Their value system will often reflect yours if the expectations are high.

A.Let him know that he's not wrong.
B.Kids learn values when they experience them.
C.Tell kids your life stories and teach them through your stories.
D.Kids will tend to rise to the level of expectation you have for them.
E.Anyone who spends time with your kids may be influencing them.
F.Talk to them when everyone's relaxed,and do it in a conversation manner.
G.Kids will learn the most important values when they're excited about the topic.

14.Cigarette smoking is believed by most research workers in this field to be an important factor in the development of cancer of the lungs and the throat and is believed to be related to cancer of the bladder (膀胱) and the oral cavity (口腔).Male cigarette smokers have a higher death rate from heart disease than non-smoking males.
Female smokers are thought to be less affected because they do not breathe in the smoke so deeply.The majority of physicians and researchers consider these relationships proved to their satisfaction and say,"Give up smoking.If you don't smoke,don't start".Some capable physicians and research workers-though their small number is reducing even further-are less sure of the effect of cigarette smoking on health.They consider the increase in respiratory (呼吸的) diseases and various forms of cancer may possibly be explained by other factors in the complex human environment-atmospheric pollution,increased nervous stress,chemical substances in processed food,or chemical pesticides(殺蟲劑)that are now being used by farmers in vast quantities to destroy insects and small animals.Smokers who develop cancer or lung diseases,they say,may also,by coincidence,live in industrial areas,or eat more canned food.Gradually,however,research is isolating all other possible factors and proving them to be statistically irrelevant.While all tobacco smoking affects life expectancy and health,cigarette smoking appears to have a much greater effect than cigar or pipe smoking.However,nicotine consumption is not decreasing by the latter forms,and current research indicates relationship between all forms of smoking and cancer of the mouth and throat.Filters and low tar (焦油) tobacco are claimed to make smoking to some extent safer,but they can only slightly reduce,not eliminate,the risks.

81.Male smokers can be more affected by smoking than female ones becausethey breathe in the smoke so deeply..
82.The author's attitude towards smoking isnegative.
83.Does all the tobacco smoking affect life expectancy and health in the same level,and why?No,because cigarette smoking appears to have a much greater effect than cigar or pipesmoking.
84.What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?To make people give up smoking.

1.Different weather makes people feel different.It influences health,intelligence and feelings.
In August,it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States.(51)G In the Northeast and the Middle West,it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times.People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence.For example,in a 1983report by scientists,IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came,but after the strong wind,their IQ was 10% lower.(52)CVery hot weather,on the other hand,can make it lower.Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings.Winter may be a bad time for thin people.They usually feel cold during these months.They might feel unhappy during cold weather.(53)D They even don't like to do outdoor activities.
Low air pressure may make people forgetful.(54)F There is"good weather"for health.People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.
Are you feeling sad,tired,forgetful,or unhappy today?(55)A

A.It may be the weather's problem.
B.Warm weather can have a bad effect on health.
C.The wind can help people have more intelligence.
D.But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer.
E.people may have more intelligence when low air pressure comes.
F.People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days.
G.People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month.

16.One day,I received a call from a colleague.He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem,while the student claimed a perfect score.I was elected as their arbiter(仲裁人).I read the examination problem:"Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(氣壓計(jì))."The student had answered;"Take the barometer to the top of the building,attach a long rope to it,lower it to the street,and then bring it up,measuring the length of the rope.The length of it is the height of the building."
The student had really answered the question completely,but the answer didn't confirm his competence in physics.I suggested the student try again.I gave him six minutes to answer the question,warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics.Five minutes later,he said he had many answers and dashed off one,which read:"Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof.Drop the barometer,timing its fall with a stopwatch.Then,use the physical formula(公式)to calculate the height of the building."
At this point,my colleague had to accept it,and then the student made almost full marks.I couldn't help asking the student what the other answers were.He listed many others,and then added,"Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him,‘Sir,here is a fine barometer.If you tell me the height of the building,I will give it to you.",
Then,I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question.He admitted that he did,but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.
The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world.He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.

36.The student got a zero at the beginning becauseD.
A.the teacher wasn't satisfied with him
B.his answer wasn't complete or correct
C.the teacher didn't fully understand his answer
D.his answer didn't show his knowledge of physics
37.We know from the passage thatA.
A.the student knew the expected answer
B.the administrator told Bohr the height
C.the author preferred Bohr's last answer
D.the teacher was a very stubborn person
38.We can learn from the passage thatC.
A.instructors can teach students how to think
B.a(chǎn)rbiters can help students to get high scores
C.students should be given more freedom in thinking
D.teachers should make students use physical formulas
39.What was Bohr's attitude toward his schooling?B
A.Optimistic.  B.Critical.  C.Approving.  D.Pessimistic.
