17.The other day,BBC broadcast its documentary(紀(jì)錄片)"Are Our Kids Tough Enough?-Chinese School",in which the British and Chinese teaching styles competed against each other,with both sides tested after four weeks to see who comes out on top.
In this unique experiment,five Chinese teachers took over a British classroom with 50teenagers aged 13and 14in a British school for one month and taught them in a typical Chinese way:no talking,no questions and experiencing the severe classroom discipline within an extended school-hour from 7a.m.to 7p.m.In the meantime,another group of students were guided in the British teaching style:free talking,free questioning,thinking for themselves and relaxing learning atmosphere.
At the end of the documentary,all the pupils took part in the same exams in a few subjects.Next is the result.

Faced with the result,many netizens in Britain made a strong suggestion to their Education Minister that Britain should learn from China and adopt China's educational style.

Dear Minister,
I hear that many people in your country are suggesting Britain's education system should follow China's after a BBC documentary,which reported a 4-week experiment ending up with Chinese teaching methods defeating British ones..It is said you are collecting opinions from Chinese students.The following is my view.
Personally,I strongly advise you forget Chinese style of education.On one hand,Chinese students wining in test scores is in fact at the cost of their creative abilities and autonomy in learning.As a matter of fact,many of my classmates could do nothing without teachers'and parents'help,let alone make great innovations in their later life.On the other hand,Chinese students are suffering from a severe lack of sleep and good health,all due to the pursuit of a high score in numerous tests.Without a healthy body,nothing is meaningful.Do you really want young Britons to spend 15 to 16 hours a day on study?
Therefore,dear Minister,you should think twice if you decide to follow that suggestion.
Your sincerely,
A Chinese senior student.

8.A report says older adults who test their minds with increasingly difficult projects have better mental ability than those who do less demanding activities.
To keep our brains sharp as we age,we are often told to keep our minds active.As the old saying goes,"Use it or lose it."But,there is very little scientific evidence to support than.
Denise Park is head of the university's Center for?Vital Longevity.She designed a study in which she and her tern placed 221healthy aging and older adults into one of three groups.
"We asked people to learn new things,like quilting or photography.We asked other people to just do fun things like being in a social group function but were not likely to have a very large effect."
The subjects took part in their assigned activities for 15hours a week over three months.At the end of that time,the researchers found that the adults who learned new skills,such as digital photography,showed the greatest improvements on memory tests.
No improvements were seen in the results of those in the social group that did activities together like going on field trips.There were also no improvements among the third group that listened to classical music or did crossword puzzles.
Denise Park believes one reason for improved memory in the active learning group is that its members were being pushed to learn new skills.The other groups took part in what she call receptive activities.Learning new skills may not cure age-related mental decline.But,Ms.Park thinks being mentally active slows down the process.
Denise Park says the latest information shows that the improvements lasted for at least a year.She and her team plan to do longer follow-up studies with all three groups.She also is interested in learning whether taking part in demanding mental activities delays the development of conditions like Alzheimer's disease.

8.What may the social group be asked to do?C
A.Learn to take photos.
B.Listen to music at home.
C.Go hiking together.
D.Do the dishes.
9.What did Denise Park and her team find?D
A.Doing more exercise can help slow down our age-related mental decline.
B.Having a relaxing life is beneficial to keeping our minds sharp.
C.Keeping our minds active is associated with our health.
D.Learning new skills may help to keep our minds active.
10.If you want to keep your brain sharp you couldC.
A.go swimming with your friends.
B.play chess with your family.
C.learn how to repair the computer.
D.do crossword puzzles online
11.The text is likely to be selected from a book ofD.
A.medicine
B.education
C.a(chǎn)ging
D.science.

5.The rise of the Internet has been one of the most transformative developments in human history,comparable in impact to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph.Over two billion people worldwide now have access to vastly more information than ever before,and can communicate with each other instantly,often using Web-connected mobile devices they carry everywhere.But the Internet's tremendous impacts has only just begun.
"Mass adoption of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social,cultural,and political transformations in history,and unlike earlier periods of change,this time the effects are fully global,"Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book.The New Digital Age.
Perhaps the most profound changes will come when the five billion people worldwide who currently lack Internet access get online.The authors do an excellent job of examining the implications of the Internet revolution for individuals,governments,and institutions like the news media.But if the book has one major shortcoming,it's that authors don't spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these weeping changes.
In their book,the authors provide the most authoritative volume to date that describes-and more importantly predicts-how the Internet will shape our lives in the coming decades.They paint a picture of a world in which individuals,companies,institutions,and governments must deal with two realities,one physical,and one virtual.
At the core of the book is the idea that"technology is neutral,but people aren't."By using this concept as a starting point,the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs.pessimist dichotomy(對(duì)立觀點(diǎn))that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will ultimately be good or bad for society.In an interview with TIME earlier this week,Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet,they're also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online,particularly with respect to personal privacy and state surveillance(監(jiān)視).

59.In what way is the rise of the Internet similar to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph?
B
A.It transforms human history.
B.It facilitates daily communication.
C.It is adopted by all humanity.
D.It revolutionizes people's thinking.
60.In what respect is the book The New Digital Age considered inadequate?C
A.It fails to recognize the impact of the Internet technology.
B.It fails to look into the social implications of the Internet.
C.It lacks an objective evaluation of the role of Internet businesses.
D.It does not address the technical aspects of Internet communication.
61.What does the passage say about the authors of The New Digital Age?D
A.They leave many questions unanswered concerning the Internet.
B.They are optimistic about the future of the Internet revolution.
C.They have explored the unknown territories of the virtual world.
D.They don't take sides in analyzing the effects of the Internet.
