6. 选择题 　　Graffiti painting is traditionally a daredevil pursuit. Teenagers dodge security guards to put their names on trains and buses. But over the past decade, graffiti has all but disappeared from Britain's cities. Between 2007 and 2012 the number of incidents of graffiti recorded by the British Transport Police fell by 63%. A survey by the Environment Ministry shows that fewer places are blighted by tags than ever. Graffiti are increasingly confined to sanctioned walls, such as the Stockwell ball courts. In time the practice may die out entirely. 　　The most obvious reason for the decline in tagging and train-painting is better policing. Numerous CCTV cameras mean it is harder to get away with painting illegally. And punishments are more severe. A generational shift is apparent, too. Fewer teenagers are getting into painting walls. They prefer to play with iPads and video games. Some have gone to art school and want to make money from their paintings. The Internet means that painters can win far more attention by posting pictures online than they can by breaking into a railway yard. 　　Taggers and graffiti artists mostly grew up in the 1980s and 1990s. Those men—and almost all are men—are now older and less willing to take risks. Graffiti may eventually disappear. But for now the hobby is almost respectable. The former graffiti artists paint abandoned warehouses at the weekend. It has become something to do on a Sunday afternoon—a slightly healthier alternative to sitting and watching football. 　　1.Teenagers are not afraid of being caught by security guards when they put their names on trains and buses. 　　2.Less tags can be found in public places nowadays. 　　3.Because of better policing graffiti decreases. 　　4.Some teenagers go to art school in order to learn to paint walls. 　　5.Taggers and graffiti artists are still willing to take risks.

12. 正误判断题 　　I've been living in the country for more than 10 years. It means quietness, privacy, harmony and peace for me. 　　Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc. 　　Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve. I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this community I can’t say enough. 　　I really enjoy living the country life. I know it’s not for everyone, but I know it's for me. 　　1. The author has lived in the countryside for more than a decade, and he/she loves living there. 　　2. Living in the country is not busy at all. 　　3. The author takes a walk or drives along country roads almost every day. 　　4. People living in the country usually go shopping every Saturday. 　　5. According to the author, nobody dislikes countryside life.

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. 选择题 　　Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）. 　　“Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits, ” says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health. 　　Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health. This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ（智商）by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding. 　　Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests. Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found. 　　When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breast-fed the longest stayed in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher. 　　1. From the passage, we learn that Horta . 　　A. is from Brazil 　　B. conducts his research in the U.S. 　　C. has 30 researchers on his team 　　2. Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT mentioned? 　　A. They stayed longer in school 　　B. They were happier 　　C. They were smarter 　　3. Which of the following is TRUE? 　　A. Doctors don't understand the benefits of breast-feeding. 　　B. Horta is concerned with water contamination in poor countries. 　　C. Horta's research project lasted about 30 years 　　4. The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to . 　　A. finished 　　B. interested 　　C. polluted 　　5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage? 　　A. Researchers Have Pointed Out the Disadvantages of Breast-feeding 　　B. Researchers Have Found Out the Shortcomings of Formula 　　C. Breast-feeding Improves Chances of Success

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.

42. 选择题 　　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? 　　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 . 　　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 . 　　A. study 　　B. subject 　　C. viewpoint 　　4. The author is a . 　　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? 　　A. Story readings and discussions. 　　B. Osmosis. 　　C. Taking every opportunity to teach character.

48. 选择题 Alternative Legal Billing – Win Strategies 　　Hourly billing is the best way to be charged for legal services. About 95 percent of lawyers still perform their legal work on an hourly basis. If you want something better than the old “bill by the hour” deal, try presenting one of these billing structures. Project billing for routine issues 　　If your legal needs include large but repetitive tasks, consider a flat-fee approach. Once you get a project billing estimate, don't hesitate to shop around to compare prices and services with other law firms. A firm may provide a better deal if it expects future work from your company. Results-oriented options 　　“Pay-according-to-success” is one choice. It considers fees based on the outcome of the case and the performance of your counsel. Contingency fees turn the matter into a shared risk or shared encouragement, making the law firm your business partner, not just representation. Multi-layered tasks 　　If you're shopping for a firm for actual legal work involving a number of legal specialties, consider using blended hourly fees. The firm calculates in advance an “average” rate based on the anticipated time each lawyer spends on the matter. 　　This arrangement helps the client to avoid paying a senior partner's hourly rate for research that should be conducted by a junior associate. 　　Legal “Insurance” 　　The contract fee allows the client to pick up the phone and talk to the lawyer without needing to eye the clock. This approach works like a legal insurance policy. It encourages companies to contact their counsel on non-litigation, non-crisis matters, and to save money in the long run by engaging in more preventive legal action. 　　1. is the best way to be charged for legal services. 　　A. Results-oriented billing 　　B. Hourly billing 　　C. Flat-fee billing 　　2. A flat-fee approach . 　　A. is suitable for repetitive tasks 　　B. is useless 　　C. is the best choice. 　　3. make the law firm share your risk and encouragement. 　　A. Contract fees 　　B. Blended hourly fees 　　C. Contingency fees 　　4. Legal work involving a number of legal specialties should consider using . 　　A. blended hourly fees 　　B. insurance fees 　　C. hourly fees 　　5. You have to eye the clock when you talk to the lawyer when you choose . 　　A. legal “Insurance” 　　B. the old “bill by the hour” deal 　　C. a flat-fee approach
