6. 选择题 　　Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life. 　　Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead, Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete (运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team. 　　In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping and throwing contests. 　　People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.” 　　1. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in . 　　A. India 　　B. Pennsylvania 　　C. Oklahoma 　　2. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT . 　　A. fishing 　　B. singing 　　C. swimming 　　3. Jim Thorpe started to play sports . 　　A. before he was 9 years old 　　B. when he was 16 years old 　　C. when he was 24 years old 　　4. The word decathlon in paragraph 3 probably means . 　　A. jumping 　　B. five track and field events 　　C. ten track and field events 　　5. Which of the following is NOT TRUE? 　　A. In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education. 　　B. Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games. 　　C. Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.

12. 选择题 　　Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger（汉堡包）stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries. 　　With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald's is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald's, called the Big Mac Index（巨无霸指数）.That's not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald's in India doesn't serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans. 　　Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism（沙文主义）, and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and “bad food.” The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald's, killing a 27-year-old employee. No one claimed responsibility. But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald's is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization. 　　1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE? 　　A. McDonald's was founded in 1948. 　　B. McDonald's has opened its restaurants in every city of the world. 　　C. McDonald's has over 30,000 locations in the world now. 　　2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean . 　　A. very crowded 　　B. very clean 　　C. existing everywhere 　　3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that . 　　A. McDonald's designs its menu to suit the local people 　　B. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald's 　　C. the McDonald's menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big Mac 　　4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's? 　　A. They destroyed a McDonald's under construction. 　　B. They protested outside a McDonald's. 　　C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald's. 　　5. In , an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald's restaurant in France. 　　A. 1998 　　B. 1999 　　C. 2000

18. 排序题 A. For many students B. a major barrier C. equality in access to education D. different people E. non-traditional students 　　The National Union of Students (NUS) welcomes the news that greater numbers of black and disabled students are studying at UK universities, but there is still a lot of work to be done on widening access, writes the union's president, Gemma Tumelty. 　　A recent Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) equalities review showed that significant numbers of potential students felt their disability was to accessing higher education (HE). This is simply unacceptable. 　　Equality and diversity is not entirely a “numbers game” and before too much praise is given we need to hear more from , not just about their experience of accessing higher education but also going through the system. 　　Equality in society is absolutely, and fundamentally, linked to . 　　 , university is the place where they will be first exposed to different cultures and . As well as fighting for better access, the NUS wants to see diversity properly valued and promoted within the student experience. Many pay lip service to the value of diversity, but is this recognized and promoted as a core asset to those who go through the HE system? 　　Equality in society can be promoted by equality and diversity at university. But the benefits of university as a positive, diverse environment must be seen by students as adding “value” as much as any other factors before the numbers game is really won by the champions of diversity.

24. 正误判断题 Liu Hui and Molly are discussing the issue of educational quality at a workshop. Liu Hui: Hi, Molly. Today's topic is educational quality. First, what does educational quality mean to you? Molly: As far as I'm concerned, quality education means good learning standards in educational institutions. So, educational quality ensures a desirable outcome for learners. Liu Hui: Sounds like after some serious thinking. However, many definitions of quality in education exist, testifying to the complexity and multifaceted nature of the concept. Molly: Definitely, establishing a contextualized understanding of quality means including relevant stakeholders. Key stakeholders often hold different views and meanings of educational quality. Liu Hui: There are many prestigious universities in the US. They all provide high-quality education. But some universities aren't known for their quality. It's hard to imagine the gap. Molly: Yes, in the US the quality in higher education is quite mixed. Universities like Harvard, Yale, MIT, etc., you know, are well-known all over the world. However, there are some institutions providing poor education, so called “diploma mills”. Liu Hui: In China, we have similar issues in educational quality. Some universities pay more attention to profits instead of quality. Molly: How to improve educational quality is an international issue. But, solutions are grounded in values, cultures and traditions and may be specific to a given nation as well. Molly thinks that educational quality ensures a satisfactory outcome for learners. 2. Liu Hui disagrees with Molly on the meaning of education quality. 3. All universities in the U.S. offer high-quality education. 4. Diploma mills cannot provide high-quality education. 5. In China, there isn't any diploma mill.

30. 选择题 　　Maggie Walker was born in 1867 in Richmond, Virginia. Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman's house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home. Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school. She was a very good student, especially in math. 　　After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a job as a teacher. In 1886, she married Armistead Walker. They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them. She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead. Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization. The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other. 　　Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization. In 1895, she suggested that St. Luke begin a program for young people. This program became very popular with schoolchildren. In 1899, Walk became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization. However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her. 　　The Order of St. Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over. It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank. But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that. Her idea was to get new members to join the Organization. In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members. The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55. Now Walker was ready for her next big step. 　　1.

36. 选择题 　　When Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year, he promised to end a controversial （有争议的）, citywide cell-phone ban（禁令）in public schools, which is not equally enforced in all schools. Now, under his leadership, the city is preparing to end the ban. It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class. 　　Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, “If we don't see it, we don't know about it.” That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets. 　　But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, die ban has been strictly enforced. The detectors were installed to keep weapon out of schools，but the scanners（扫描器）can also detect cell phones. So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them. 　　The ban was put into place in 2007 under mayor Michael Bloomberg. Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban. Workers in vans（厢式货车）that resemble food tracks store teens' cell phones and Other devices for a dollar a day, 　　Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency. They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory. Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who can't afford to pay to store their phones. 　　Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy. It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests. 　　1. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage? 　　A. New York City will give financial aid to poor students. 　　B. New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries. 　　C. New York City will soon end a ban on cell phones in schools. 　　2. Students pay a day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school. 　　A. a dollar 　　B. two dollars 　　C. five dollars 　　3. Metal detectors were installed in 88 city schools, mainly to keep out of schools. 　　A. cell phones 　　B. weapons 　　C. drugs 　　4. The word discriminatory in Paragraph 5 probably means . 　　A. necessary 　　B. tough 　　C. unfair 　　5. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? 　　A. After the cell-phone ban is ended, students can use their phones during class. 　　B. The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools. 　　C. A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses.

48. 正误判断题 　　NEW YORK – The five men facing trial in the Sept. 11 attacks will plead not guilty. They would state their criticisms of U.S. foreign policy, the lawyer for one of the defendants said Sunday. 　　Scott Fenstermaker, the lawyer for accused terrorist Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, said the men would not deny their role in the 2001 attacks but “would explain what happened and why they did it.” 　　Ali and four other men are accused of killing nearly 3,000 people in the nation's deadliest terrorist attack. The U.S. Justice Department announced earlier this month that they will face a civilian federal trial just blocks from the World Trade Center site. 　　Ali is also known as Ammar al-Baluchi. He is a nephew of claimed 9/11 planner, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. 　　Mohammed, Ali and the others will explain “their assessment of American foreign policy,” Fenstermaker said. 　　“Their assessment is negative,” he said. 　　Fenstermaker met with Ali last week at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. He has not spoken with the others. But he said the men have discussed the trial among themselves. 　　Fenstermaker was first quoted in The New York Times in Sunday's editions. 　　Critics of Attorney General Eric Holder decided to try the men in a New York City civilian courthouse. It has warned that the trial would provide the defendants with a propaganda platform. 　　Dean Boyd, a spokesman for the Department of Justice, said Sunday that while the men may attempt to use the trial to express their views, “we believe the courts and the federal judge may govern the trial. The course of justice will be led appropriately and with minimal break, as federal courts have done in the past.” 　　1. The five men thought that the U.S. foreign policy should be blamed for the 911 attack. 　　2. Scott Fenstermaker is the lawyer for Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali and four other men. 　　3. Nearly 3,000 people were killed in the 911 attack. 　　4. The press didn't care about this civilian federal trial. 　　5. We can infer from the article that the prisoners also have their freedom to express their own views in the U.S.A.
