Technologies are widely used in our daily life everywhere now.
More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, such teaching tools as iPads are used in learning language, history, science and so on.
Many teachers agree that students use iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom. Instead of spending too much class time listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own in their free time and they have more time to have discussions in class.
The teachers also say that iPads allow students to decide when to learn. Some students might
listen to a dialogue only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same dialogue again and again to understand it. Using iPads is especially helpful to the students who are learning a language at different paces.
The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn, such as listening to stories and watching movies. The class has become much more interesting.
There are other advantages for students. By using iPads, they can pay more attention to what they are studying and learn more. Teaching notes are stored in their iPads and are easy to find. Some students spend more time studying now. "I can listen to my language materials or watch teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait until I get home", a student explained.
Many adults complain that technologies such as iPads are doing harm to students. They worry that students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that iPads may separate students from each other. If a student spends more time on an iPad, he will have fewer chances to have face-to-face communication with others.
However, technologies are already a part of most students' day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make changes with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
51. From the first paragraph we know iPads are____________ for learning.
A. harmful B. great C. expensive D. difficult
52. What does the underlined word "pace" most probably mean in Chinese
A. 方式 B.态度 C.结构 D.进度
53. According to the passage, which is NOT true about using the iPads
A. Students can spend more class time listening.
B. Students can have more class time to discuss.
C. Some students can save time for doing others.
D. Students can learn languages at different paces.
54. From the passage, we can learn that____________.
A. students with iPads have less interest in learning after class
B. students get more fun from learning with the help of iPads
C. iPads help students save time while waiting for buses
D. iPads can prevent students from cheating in exams
55. Maybe the writer agrees that____________.
A. teachers can take control of students' learning
B. exam results depend a lot on new technology
C. technology in education has a bright future
D. note-taking is as helpful as video-watching
D
It's true that a city that encourages people to get up and move would have a healthier population. Now, a study proves that link between human powered transportation and the health of its population.
Based on a study that survey around 430，000 UK residents from 22 cities, between the ages of 38 and 73, researchers found a strong positive relation between a neighbor's “walkability” and lower blood pressure. The study reported that walkable design had particularly “pronounced protective effects” for women and those aged 50 to 60. To quantify(量化) walkability, the team of scientists from the University of Hong Kong and Oxford University considered urban density(密度), public transportation choices, street level movement, and points of interest. Locations with lower scores usually encouraged sedentary(久坐的) behavior, while higher scoring places effectively encouraged residents to make basic exercise a part of their daily routines.
The study is the latest data point in a growing body of evidence linking public health with design factors in the urban environment. As the study's lead author, Dr Chinmoy Sarkar, sees it, efforts to encourage walking can help change the otherwise negative health results connected with city life. “With the increasing pace of aging population, we become less able to deal with diseases like high blood pressure，” the assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong's Healthy High Density Cities Lab said.
With more than half of the world's population living in cities, and more than seven million Britons suffering from cardiovascular(心血管的) diseases like high blood pressure, a study like this certainly seems worthy of attention. Together with the trend toward greener cities that support more human powered transport over cars, these findings will hopefully encourage local, state, and national governments to commit resources to smart urban planning in the future.
56．What may happen if a city encourages its population to move more
A．The people will live longer.
B．The people will become lazier.
C．The people will have lower blood pressure.
D．The people will refuse human powered transport.
57．What can we learn about the people in the study
A．They were from 22 countries.
B．They were from the same country.
C．They were mainly women aged 50 to 60.
D．They were from cities with high walkability.
58．Why is it becoming harder to deal with diseases like high blood pressure
A．More people are living in cities.
B．There are more and more old people.
C．The urban environment is unhealthy.
D．The walkable design develops slowly.
59．Which of the following is encouraged to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease
A．Driving out at times.
B．Taking public transportation.
C．Going out on foot or by bike.
D．Staying indoors as much as possible.
60．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．Human powered transportation is helpful to health.
B．The government encourages its citizens to walk more.
C．Walking is a good way to deal with high blood pressure.
D．The population of cities is becoming bigger and bigger.
