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    1    .

　　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   1    

　　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    2    .

　　A. very crowded 

　　B. very clean

　　C. existing everywhere

　　3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that    3    .

　　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   4    

　　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    5    , an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald's restaurant in France.

　　A. 1998

　　B. 1999

　　C. 2000

Liu Hui interviews Dr. Smith about the issue of educational inequality.

Liu Hui: Thank you, Dr. Smith, for agreeing to be interviewed by our Campus News Weekly. First, what do you mean by educational inequality

Dr. Smith: Educational inequality is the disparity that certain students experience in their education as compared to other students. But the meaning of it varies in different social contexts.

Liu Hui: Why does it exist in modern society

Dr. Smith: Well, researchers link educational inequality to socioeconomic, racial and geographic reasons.

Liu Hui: So it is very likely that educational inequality exists in different forms in different countries.

Dr. Smith: Yeah, you are right. For example, in the United States, although skin color is linked to other forms of inequality, it is evident in education.

Liu Hui: Educational inequality exists in China, too. For example, the college entrance rate is much higher in Beijing than in other provinces. How do you think can we someday eradicate the inequality

Dr. Smith: It's impossible to answer such a big question in few words. Educational inequality has become one of the most important political and social issues in every nation nowadays. There have been numerous attempts at reforms and.....

B. Chinese students and academics

C. the crisis on economic growth

D. A strong research system

E. in part because of this

　　Education and academic quality can mean different things to different people, depending on their perspective, role and context and,    1    , quality is notoriously difficult to evaluate. The question of how to do this has been pursued for many years.

　　Nevertheless, the goal of improving educational quality is agreed by all and stimulated further by the recent worldwide economic downturn and the need to counteract the impact of   2    and prepare for economic recovery.

　　As the World Bank and UNESCO said 10 years ago: “The quality of knowledge generated within higher education institutions, and its availability to the wider economy, is becoming increasingly critical to national competitiveness.” They also rightly emphasized that “   3    at the national level opens up the possibility that substantial additional public benefits can be realized through international links.”

　　This is precisely why   4    should contribute to these global benefits, reforming and improving evaluation systems for educational and academic quality. Original and good research, especially in science, economics and social sciences, has a trickle-down effect on society. And it offers additional benefits    5    , though international collaboration and exchange of the best evaluation policy and practice can bring substantial advantages to all partners in relation to lessons learned elsewhere.

I. Read the passage and choose the right sub-title (A-D) for each paragraph.

A. The inexactitude of language

B. Preventing misunderstandings

C. Intercultural communication 

D. Fostering respect

E. Avoiding conflicts

Para 1   1    

　　Intercultural communication refers to messages transmitted between members of two or more different societies. Effective intercultural communication helps firms avoid conflict, prevent misunderstandings, and foster respect.

Para 2   2    

　　The workplace is growing more diverse every day. Managers cannot assume that what they find inoffensive will also be inoffensive to their subordinates. A lack of sensitivity can lead to claims of discrimination or harassment, which costs firms big money. Intercultural communication involves exercising sensitivity and tact to avoid such conflicts.

Para 3   3    

　　We human beings have developed language to communicate ideas to one another. Still, our language represents an imperfect form of communication. Sometimes, words cannot accurately convey an idea, because the information might be highly complex. Also, a concept that exists in one culture or language might not be part of another. Effective intercultural communication tries to bridge language gaps as effectively as possible so that everyone at the workplace finds themselves on the same page.

Para 4   4    

　　Given the inexactitude of language, misunderstandings can frequently arise between people from different cultures when they exchange information. Idioms often become lost in translation. For example, the English expression “to shoulder responsibility” translates into Swedish as “be a man for your hat”. Intercultural communication does not rely on expressions native to a particular language that could lead to confusion; rather, it relies on clear messages that all parties understand.

Para 5   5    

　　Communication happens differently in various cultures. What one society finds acceptable may be anathemato another. When coworkers from different cultures do not take these differences into account, not only does communication suffer but conflicts come to the fore. Effective intercultural communication does not try to ignore societal differences; rather, it respects the variations among the human race and enables people to transmit information clearly.

　　Charity is a concept which dates back to Biblical times, when helping the poor was something that rich people basically did to make themselves feel good. Social work has its roots in charity, as it originally began around the time of the industrial revolution when there were many poor people and society was seeking a way of dealing with the poor and social problems. Although social work began as charity work, it has expanded a lot and needs to be seen from a completely different perspective.

　　Modern-day social work deals not only with poverty and the subsequent problems, but also with the problems arising from various types of “social fear” (“social phobias”) and discrimination such as sexism, racism, and discrimination against an individual due to his age, or mental or physical disabilities. Social workers deal with the consequences of these discriminations as well as consequences that arise from sexual abuse, drug abuse, and various other problems.

　　Social work provides an important service to society. Individuals and families in need of help are the focus of it, and are re　ferred to as clients. Social workers help clients live a productive life in their own community. In order to reach this goal, they often enlist the assistance of family members, relatives, local religious leaders, and other influential members of the community. Although institutionalization may be necessary at times, it is a temporary solution. Social workers usually serve in the front line, and reach out to the clients soon after problems occur. The goal is to help clients return to normal life in a natural setting.

　　1. The charity originally means to    1    .

　　A. help the poor that makes the rich feel good.

　　B. help clients return to normal life.

　　C. serve the whole society.

　　2. When does social work begin   2    

　　A. around the time of the industrial revolution

　　B. Biblical times

　　C. modern time

　　3. Modern-day social work deals with the following problems except    3    

　　A. poverty 

　　B. racism

　　C. education

　　4. In order to help clients live a productive life, social workers can turn to the assistance of    4    .

　　A. government 

　　B. family members

　　C. businessmen

　　5. Which statement about social work is NOT True   5    

　　A. Social work roots from charity.

　　B. Social work deals not only with poverty and the subsequent problems, but also with various social fear and discrimination.

　　C. Social work is that the rich people want to help the poor people.

　　Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate(有读写能力的) without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach

　　Of course there will always be learning by osmosis(耳濡目染)in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child's moral literacy is strengthened when they acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue(美德).

　　I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed(使融入)itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. It's also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.

　　Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when am student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as, "that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!" we draw out from them the required virtue: "When you're walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use"

　　1. Which of the following is the main idea of this passage   1    

　　A. Teaching morals and values has been a frequently discussed topic in the past few years. 

　　B. The author and his staff embed virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children.

　　C. Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives.

　　2. We can infer from the first paragraph that    2    .

　　A. there tends to be disagreement about what character education is

　　B. most parents are not satisfied with the teaching methods adopted in schools

　　C. the approach to character education is generally considered different from the approaches to other skills

　　3. The word "philosophy" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to    3    .

　　A. study

　　B. subject

　　C. viewpoint

　　4. The author is a    4    .

　　A. teacher

　　B. librarian

　　C. reporter

　　5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to build character in children   5    

　　A. Story readings and discussions.

　　B. Osmosis.

　　C. Taking every opportunity to teach character.

　　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.   1    

　　2. Scott Fenstermaker is the lawyer for Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali and four other men.   2    

　　3. Nearly 3,000 people were killed in the 911 attack.   3    

　　4. The press didn't care about this civilian federal trial.   4    

　　5. We can infer from the article that the prisoners also have their freedom to express their own views in the U.S.A.   5
