A
We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed －ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming （把……按能力分班）pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not －so－bright children. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills and we find that mixed－ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate to share, and they develop leadership skills. They also learn how to deal with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is proper. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to achieve this goal.
56. In the passage the writer’s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching” is ________.
A. critical. B. questioning.
C. agreeable. D. objective.
57. By “held back” the writer means “________.”
A. made to remain in the same classes.
B. forced to study in the lower classes.

A. personal qualities and social skills.
B. total personality.
C. learning ability and communicative skills.
D. intellectual ability.
59. Which of the following is not mentioned in the third paragraph?
A. Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with others.
B. Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.
C. Group work provides pupils with the chance to learn to be capable organizers.
D. Pupils also learn how to take part in teaching activities.
60. The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to _______.

Some inventions are so useful, but seem so simple, that we wonder why no one thought of them long ago. Post-it Notes, the pieces of paper that you can fasten almost anywhere and then remove without leaving any sign that they were there, are an example of such an invention.
Post-it Notes were invented about twenty years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Corporation. The idea for the product came from a frustrating experience he often had while singing in his church choir. Fry used pieces of paper as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. He knew he needed a bookmark that would stay where he put it, but that he could remove without damaging the pages.
Around that time, Fry heard about a new adhesive (粘合剂) that a colleague(同事), Dr. Spence Silver, had created. This adhesive was special because it was sticky, but not too sticky. It was strong enough to hold papers together, but weak enough to not tear the paper when it was removed. Fry saw that the new adhesive could help solve his bookmark problem. One morning, Fry put some of the adhesive on the edge of a piece of paper. Just as he hoped, it made a perfect bookmark.
A short time later, Fry realized that his new invention had even more uses than being a great bookmark. He came to this realization when he wrote a note on one of his new "bookmarks" and attached it to a report he was going to give to a colleague. Soon, co-workers were asking Fry for more samples(样品) of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves.
Fry and some other people at 3M believed so much in the new product that they persuaded the company to give away thousands of the "sticky pieces of paper" for trial use(试用). When some salespeople at 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post-it Notes could be, the product took off.
61. The invention of Post-it Notes showed that Art Fry________ .
A. had a lot of knowledge B. was very hard-working
C. was good at creative thinking D. loved his job in the church
62. In what way did Dr. Spence help Art Fry?
A. They worked together and often discussed science.
B. His invention of a special adhesive made Art's invention possible.
C. He persuaded 3M Corporation to give away lots of Post-it Notes for trial use.
D. He cooperated with Art by providing the new adhesive for Art.
63. Which of the following is a possible use of Post-it Notes?
A. A note on a friend's door. B. An e-mail to a friend.
C. A postcard from abroad. D. An ad in a newspaper.
64. The underlined phrase "took off" means_______ .
A. started to leave the ground B. disappeared from the market
C. had even more uses D. became popular very quickly
65. The biggest advantage of Post-it Notes is_______.
A. it can stay anywhere and leave no sign when removed
B. it is very cheap to use
C. it is good to write notes on
D. it is very thin and beautiful

China will fine the crew(全体工作人员) of the country's most expensive movie, "The Promise(《无极》)" by Oscar-nominated(提名) director Chen Kaige, for damaging the environment in an area of outstanding natural beauty, state media said on Wednesday.
The producers ignored to carry out an environmental effect report and did not apply for permission to build roads and buildings around Bigu Lake in the southwestern province of Yunnan, the Beijing Youth Daily and other newspapers reported.
Though most of the garbage at the site has now been cleaned up and some buildings are pulled down, about 100 concrete pilings(混凝土桩) are still standing, the newspaper said.
It will also take some time for marshland(沼泽) areas around the lake to recover, it added. The paper did not say how much fine will be imposed(强加惩罚于某人) on the film's crew.
"China's current environmental protection laws are not yet perfected, and there is a lack of standards or guidelines for fines for damaging the environment," the newspaper quoted a government environmental watchdog official as saying.
Producer and director Chen Kaige's wife, Chen Hong, has refused the charges, saying the crew had left "enough money" for the local government to deal with the consequences.
The film, part love story, part kung fu epic(史诗), opened in Chinese theatres last December and was nominated for a Golden Globe(金球奖).
Chen first impressed the world stage with his 1993 hit "Farewell My Concubine(《霸王别姬》)." "The Promise" is the most expensive film in Chinese history, with a budget of US$35 million, and was China's official entry in the best foreign film category at the Academy Awards in March.
66. Chen Kaige’s film “The Promise ” has _______.
A. won him great fame at home
B. spent most so far in Chinese film history
C. won Oscar in the end
D. brought in a large profit for him
67. What did the Beijing Youth Daily think of recovering marshland areas around Bigu Lake?
A. Impossible. B. Difficult.
C. Easy. D. Quite easy.
68. We can know from the passage that _______ .
A. China has been paying little attention to environmental protection.
B. Chen Hong was angry at the criticism of newspapers.
C. Chen Hong is one of the best producers in China.
D. the sum for fines for damaging the environment is hard to decide.
69. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Chen Kaige Feels Guilty for His Action.
B. Is Environmental Protection That Necessary?
C. People Criticize Chen Kaige and His Crew.
D. Film Crew to Be Fined for Damaging Environment.
D
In the United States, the term "organic" has a legal meaning set by the Department of Agriculture. The department has an official label(标签) to mark products that have met the requirements of its National Organic Program.
Organic products usually cost more, but their sales are growing. As a result, so is competition to label more products organic because many people believe they are healthier.
Now Agriculture Department officials are trying to decide whether fish can be called organic. There are rules for organic produce, organic dairy products, organic meat and chicken -- but nothing about fish.
Many operators of fish farms believe they could sell more fish if they could label them organic.
The industry that sells wild-caught fish is already under pressure from farm-raised seafood. That pressure could increase if the Agriculture Department approves proposed requirements for labeling fish organic.
Earning the organic label requires controlled conditions. The question is whether fish that swim wild and free -- like Alaskan salmon -- could meet the proposed requirements.
Yet fish farms might not all be able to meet them, either. Some operations are criticized for their treatment of fish and the risk of pollution to waterways. Fish farmers and the wild-caught industry also argue about the possible presence of harmful chemicals in each other's products.
In 2000, an advisory committee considered requests by fish farmers to call their products organic. The experts said farm-raised fish should be labeled organic only if they were fed almost completely organic plant food. Farmed fish often have little or no fish in their diet. But those proposed guidelines were not used. In 2005, the Agriculture Department formed another group to examine possible requirements. This time, the committee suggested several kinds of food that farmed fish could eat and still be called organic.
A decision about whether fish can be sold with the organic label may still take two years or more.
For now, the American fishing industry has to deal with growing competition from imported seafood. Some foreign companies already call their fish "organic" because, they say, it meets the requirements of their own countries.
70. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Search for answers about organic fish
B. How to raise organic fish
C. Proposed requirements for raising organic fish
D. American fishing industry facing pollution
71. Companies are competing to label their products organic because _______.
A. organic products cost more.
B. they can earn more money.
C. organic products are healthier.
D. their sales are growing.
72. The industry selling wild-caught fish is under pressure because _______ .
A. wild-caught fish are less likely to be labeled organic than farm-raised fish.
B. the Agriculture Department will approve proposed requirements.
C. the requirements to meet are strictly controlled.
D. foreign seafood are labeled organic.
73. It is implied in the passage that _______ .
A. there are yet no rules about organic fish.
B. farmed fish don’t eat fish.
C. wild-caught fish industry and fish farms face the same difficulty in labeling their fish organic.
D. the Agriculture Department doesn’t work well.

Everyone must go and see King's College Chapel. It's about 500 years old and took 100 years to build. It is very large and very beautiful. It is still used for religious services everyday. The choir is world-famous—go and hear them sing if you have time. The chapel is on the main old street through Cambridge so you will walk past it anyway—stop and go inside.
The best thing to do in Cambridge is to take a boat on the River Cam. You can hire a boat from one of the boatyards. You can hire a rowing boat, but it’s better to take a punt—a long boat with a flat bottom that you push along using a pole. The river goes behind many of the colleges. So you can see the wonderful buildings as you float past.
Go to the Fitzwilliam Museum. It has lots of paintings, sculptures and old objects. It has everything from Egyptian mummies to modern paintings. It is free to get in. Also, go and see the Round Church, it’s an Anglo-Saxon(盎格鲁撒克逊) church in the centre of the city. And it’s round.
Go for tea at the orchard tea shop outside Cambridge. It is in an apple orchard, where you can buy delicious lunches and teas. It’s been a tea shop for 100 years and some very famous people used to go there. On a summer day it is lovely.
Get the tour bus. It drives around the medieval part of the city, along the river and then outside into the countryside. If the weather is good, sit on the top(there is no roof) and enjoy the sun.
74. Where should those who are interested in art visit?
_______________________________________________________.
75. Which is the best way to see as many old buildings as possible in Cambridge University?
