Four apps for students to learn English
Quizlet
Quizlet is a learning app—a computer program you use on your mobile device. It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words and terms. Quizlet has word sets for millions of subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful mobile tool for language learners.
Socrative
In Socrative, teachers can create timed learning games. In class, students compete individually or as part of a team against classmates. One game students love is called Space Race. In this game, if a team answers a question correctly, their rocket moves forward. This team whose rocket gets to the end first wins. Also, teachers can use Socrative as an "exit ticket", a question they can ask students about what they learned in that day's class. Students write their answers on their mobile devices. Then, the teacher can show the answers on a shared video screen.
QR Codes
A QR Code is a kind of sign that a smartphone can read with its camera. When your phone camera reads a QR code, it takes you to a website, image, video or anything you want to share. For example, one will take you to the VOA Learning English website.
Evernote
Evernote lets users store and share notes, images and recordings in one place. Teachers can also use Evernote to give homework.
（ ）21. Which is the best for students to build up vocabulary?
A. Quizlet. B. QR Codes. C. Evernote. D. Socrative.
（ ）22. What can a teacher do by using Socrative?
A. Give homework. B. Carry out a classroom test.
C. Look up new words. D. Visit an English-learning website.
（ ）23. What's the purpose of the text?
A. To make an advertisement. B. To encourage people to use mobile phones.
C. To improve English learning. D. To introduce some learning apps.
B
I went to Arizona earlier this month to see what the college of the future might look like. What I found is an exciting new time of higher education that will help more students get a great, personalized education at an affordable price.
This future may not always include the lecture halls, dormitories, and other features of the traditional college experience. Instead, the colleges I visited are experimenting with ways for students to get their degrees online, allowing them to take courses any place and at any time.
These "colleges without walls", as they are sometimes called, are at the forefront of the effort to broaden access to higher education, especially for low-income students with full-time jobs and families. During my visit, I heard encouraging stories of students who were taking advantage of these flexible learning models to pursue(追求) degrees that could put them on paths to new careers.
One of those students was Shawn Lee. He had a compelling story: After dropping out of college decades ago, he found himself in a series of low-paying, often back-breaking jobs. He recently decided to get his degree when he had his first child and wanted to start building a better life.
Tucked away in an industrial park in Tempe, Rio Salado didn't look much like a traditional institute of higher education. There were no students running to class. Just a couple of glass-faced office buildings. The college had just 22 full-time members serving 60, 000 students, with more than half of them attending classes online.
Several students I met during my visit said they liked learning online. "I've taken college classes in a big auditorium(礼堂) with herds of people. There was no personal connection," one student said. "Now I can reach my teacher with the click of a mouse."
After several days' visit, I left Arizona feeling quite optimistic about what the future holds for higher education.
（ ）24. What does "colleges without walls" in the third paragraph refer to?
A. Colleges that have no walls around.
B. Colleges that students attend online.
C. Colleges that can be entered freely.
D. Colleges that give students more freedom.
（ ）25. What made Shawn Lee return to attend college again?
A. That he has nothing to do.
B. That he couldn't find a job.
C. That the cost of the college is low.
D. That he wanted to find a better job.
（ ）26. How did the writer feel after the visit?
A. Hopeful. B. Dissatisfied. C. Disappointed. D. Upset.
（ ）27. What is the writer's purpose in writing this text?
A. To explain what "colleges without walls" are.
B. To advertise the colleges.
C. To introduce a new model of education.
D. To encourage people to attend higher education.
C
In the early times, the music industry was afraid of taping, thinking that customers would just copy music, or record from the radio. But that never really happened, at least not enough to cause any real hardship to anyone in the music business.
The same argument arose over technologies like MiniDisc and recordable CDs. But the thing that frighten the music industry more than anything else was the arrival of services like Napster, which allowed people to share music over the Internet without costing them anything. The music industry was shocked; it saw people exchanging digital copies that didn't lower the grade with each transfer(转换), something that stopped tapes being a huge threat.
But it wasn't the Internet that killed the music industry. In fact, everything is still looking optimistic for many musicians. Taylor Swift has had a good year, and her latest album is likely to be making her very rich indeed. And that won't change in all likelihood, not for Swift, and not for those who come after her. There is always going to be public demand for music.
However, the technology will simply destroy the record company. The reason is simple. Record companies are a man in the middle that simply doesn't need to exist anymore. The same way we buy our flights direct, and get our shopping online and have things delivered from Amazon instead of going to a local shop. We have always been willing to enjoy cost reductions at the expense of the middleman, and the record companies are that kind of middleman.
What does the record industry offer? Well, surprisingly little these days. It used to be the case that record companies would go and find new talents. Of course this still happens, but more likely is that an artist will be discovered by the public through YouTube, or even from friends on Facebook or Twitter. Record companies also used to have an important role in producing the music. But countless artists are making their own way through software or any of the other amazing music development apps, without any help from the record companies.
（ ）28. What is Napster most probably?
A. A radio show. B. A CD player. C. A software. D. A tape recorder.
（ ）29. Why didn't tape copying become a huge threat to the music industry?
A. It was hard to transfer.
B. It was strictly controlled.
C. It didn't save much money.
D. It couldn't keep the quality of music.
（ ）30. What does the example of Taylor Swift prove?
A. The Internet won't destroy the music industry.
B. The musicians will benefit a lot from the Internet.
C. The sales of albums are badly affected by the Internet.
D. The demand for music will change due to the Internet.
（ ）31. What will happen to the record companies?
A. They will sell latest albums online.
B. They will become less important in the Internet society.
C. They will cut the expense on producing the music.
D. They will go and find new music talents through the Internet.
D
What makes a person a giver or a taker? The idea of "give vs. take" takes shape in all interactions (互动)and relationships of our lives. We're either giving advice, making time for people, or we're on the receiving end. We keep changing between the two based on different situations on a daily basis, if not an hourly one.
According to Adam Grant, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, most people are matchers. They make careful observations on takers and make it a point for them to pay something back. They hate to see people who act so generously towards others not receive any rewards. Actually, most matchers will try hard to improve and support givers so that they can get the good they deserve.
Is there a gender factor (性别因素) that plays a part in this?
A study led by Hannah Riley Bowles, a professor at Harvard University, focused on this question. She asked 200 senior managers to sit down in pairs where one person would act as the boss and the other as an employee to discuss salary rise. Male "employees" asked for an average salary of $146 k while the females asked for only $141 k. But why did they not bargain as hard as the men? Simply because they were more likely to be givers.
As a woman, I do enjoy the act of giving up my time, my knowledge, and my care and attention to others. I expect anything in return, but I do tend to pull myself away when I feel like I'm being taken for granted(被认为当然). I also tend to get upset when I see a loved one's continuous actions of kindness go unnoticed. So, it's safe to say I'm 50% giver, 35% matcher and 15% taker.
I do know someone, however, who is 99% giver. They're continually devoting their time, sharing valuable insights (见解) and going out of their way for everyone who crosses their path. Although they've changed the lives of many people, they hardly see any of it returned. But the universe is slowly repaying them; they're now extremely successful, well known for what they do.
（ ）32. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Most people think they are givers.
B. People are not always givers or takers.
C. An individual is born to be a giver or a taker.
D. Few differences exist between givers and takers.
（ ）33. What can we learn from Grant’s opinion?
A. Most people hate takers.
B. Most people prefer giving to taking.
C. Most people enjoy relying on themselves.
D. Most people balance giving and taking.
（ ）34. What did Hannah's study focus on?
A. The role of giving and taking in jobs.
B. The gender difference in giving and taking.
C. The role of men and women in society.
D. The salary difference between women and men.
（ ）35. Which of the following represents the author’s point of view?
A. Giving is the shortest path to success. B. Sharing is the greatest human quality.
C. No good deed goes undone. D. Givers are worth respecting.
第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sun’s out —time to go out? Maybe, maybe not, depending on the reopening plan in your state. As people start to consider vacations, a road trip seems like a good idea. 36 You can pack much more of your own goods, and avoid a large number of people. However, there are still safety precautions that all travelers should take, even if you’re heading out to a nearby mountain for a camping trip.
37
Even though limits are starting to loosen, case counts are unfortunately rising in many parts of the country. You still need to make sure to bring and use your mask whenever you could be in close proximity(接近) to anyone. Create a bag of sorts that includes the essentials. Medicine, water and other basics could go a long way if you need them in an emergency.
Don’t go off the beaten path.
While part of the joy of exploring Mother Nature is seeing new and beautiful views, if your road trip includes a hike, stay on the marked path. 38 You could get lost, injured or both.
Make sure you get enough sleep.
While many people have reported difficulty sleeping during the pandemic because of anxiety and uncertainty, adequate rest is necessary before a long car ride. Do not drive while you are feeling sleepy. 39
Protect your skin.
You may not consider sun exposure while sitting in the car, but the rays can seep(渗漏) through open windows and cause you to burn. 40 Therefore, you need to protect your skin with sunscreen and bug killer alike.
A. Wear your mask.
B. Create an item bag.
C. Avoid the desire to hike off the path.
D. Mosquitoes are also drawn when you’re outdoors at night.
E. After all, you have more control when you travel by four wheels.
F. As the sun reaches its highest point, you’ll start to sweat inside your car.
G. If you feel like you need rest, pull over and take a 30-minute power nap.

第II卷
第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
Ever since the key message, 61 is “Never forget why you started”, was put forward last year, it has been widely accepted in China. To be frank, the same message 62 (apply) to everyone’s life.
Ambitions, meaning things you want to achieve very much, play 63 important role in our daily life. When I was a student, my father told me that his ambition since his childhood was to be a translator. He wanted to work inside big buildings as a white-collar worker. With this strong ambition in mind, he was determined 64 (work) hard at every subject, 65 (particular) English, and as a result, he 66 (admit) to the best university in his province. Afterwards, he came to Shanghai for a job. There was one thing he regretted; he didn’t get a job as a translator but became a teacher instead. This story gave birth to my ambition and it “told” me to realize this dream.
With time 67 (go) by, some people forget their ambitions. How can you keep your ambitions alive? First of all, writing down your ambition is a good way to remind you. Second, take action to stay closer to your ambition. For example, I have to memorize English words to 68 (large) my vocabulary. I also try to speak English as much as I can so that I can communicate with 69 (foreign) freely.
“Never forget why you started” is the key 70 your success. If you find your ambition, catch it quickly, protect it qnd keep it in your heart.

In this game, if a team answers a question correctly, their rocket moves forward. This team whose rocket gets to the end first wins. Also, teachers can use Socrative as an "exit ticket", a question they can ask students about what they learned in that day's class. Students write their answers on their mobile devices. Then, the teacher can show the answers on a shared video screen.
QR Codes
A QR Code is a kind of sign that a smartphone can read with its camera. When your phone camera reads a QR code, it takes you to a website, image, video or anything you want to share. For example, one will take you to the VOA Learning English website.
Evernote
Evernote lets users store and share notes, images and recordings in one place. Teachers can also use Evernote to give homework.

I went to Arizona earlier this month to see what the college of the future might look like. What I found is an exciting new time of higher education that will help more students get a great, personalized education at an affordable price.
This future may not always include the lecture halls, dormitories, and other features of the traditional college experience. Instead, the colleges I visited are experimenting with ways for students to get their degrees online, allowing them to take courses any place and at any time.
These "colleges without walls", as they are sometimes called, are at the forefront of the effort to broaden access to higher education, especially for low-income students with full-time jobs and families. During my visit, I heard encouraging stories of students who were taking advantage of these flexible learning models to pursue(追求) degrees that could put them on paths to new careers.
One of those students was Shawn Lee. He had a compelling story: After dropping out of college decades ago, he found himself in a series of low-paying, often back-breaking jobs. He recently decided to get his degree when he had his first child and wanted to start building a better life.
Tucked away in an industrial park in Tempe, Rio Salado didn't look much like a traditional institute of higher education. There were no students running to class. Just a couple of glass-faced office buildings. The college had just 22 full-time members serving 60, 000 students, with more than half of them attending classes online.
Several students I met during my visit said they liked learning online. "I've taken college classes in a big auditorium(礼堂) with herds of people. There was no personal connection," one student said. "Now I can reach my teacher with the click of a mouse."
After several days' visit, I left Arizona feeling quite optimistic about what the future holds for higher education.
（ ）24. What does "colleges without walls" in the third paragraph refer to?
A. Colleges that have no walls around.
B. Colleges that students attend online.
C. Colleges that can be entered freely.
D. Colleges that give students more freedom.
（ ）25. What made Shawn Lee return to attend college again?
A. That he has nothing to do.
B. That he couldn't find a job.
C. That the cost of the college is low.
D. That he wanted to find a better job.
（ ）26. How did the writer feel after the visit?
A. Hopeful. B. Dissatisfied. C. Disappointed. D. Upset.
（ ）27. What is the writer's purpose in writing this text?
A. To explain what "colleges without walls" are.
B. To advertise the colleges.
C. To introduce a new model of education.
D. To encourage people to attend higher education.

In the early times, the music industry was afraid of taping, thinking that customers would just copy music, or record from the radio. But that never really happened, at least not enough to cause any real hardship to anyone in the music business.
The same argument arose over technologies like MiniDisc and recordable CDs. But the thing that frighten the music industry more than anything else was the arrival of services like Napster, which allowed people to share music over the Internet without costing them anything. The music industry was shocked; it saw people exchanging digital copies that didn't lower the grade with each transfer(转换), something that stopped tapes being a huge threat.
But it wasn't the Internet that killed the music industry. In fact, everything is still looking optimistic for many musicians. Taylor Swift has had a good year, and her latest album is likely to be making her very rich indeed. And that won't change in all likelihood, not for Swift, and not for those who come after her. There is always going to be public demand for music.
However, the technology will simply destroy the record company. The reason is simple. Record companies are a man in the middle that simply doesn't need to exist anymore. The same way we buy our flights direct, and get our shopping online and have things delivered from Amazon instead of going to a local shop. We have always been willing to enjoy cost reductions at the expense of the middleman, and the record companies are that kind of middleman.
What does the record industry offer? Well, surprisingly little these days. It used to be the case that record companies would go and find new talents. Of course this still happens, but more likely is that an artist will be discovered by the public through YouTube, or even from friends on Facebook or Twitter. Record companies also used to have an important role in producing the music. But countless artists are making their own way through software or any of the other amazing music development apps, without any help from the record companies.
（ ）28. What is Napster most probably?
A. A radio show. B. A CD player. C. A software. D. A tape recorder.
（ ）29. Why didn't tape copying become a huge threat to the music industry?
A. It was hard to transfer.
B. It was strictly controlled.
C. It didn't save much money.
D. It couldn't keep the quality of music.
（ ）30. What does the example of Taylor Swift prove?
A. The Internet won't destroy the music industry.
B. The musicians will benefit a lot from the Internet.
C. The sales of albums are badly affected by the Internet.
D. The demand for music will change due to the Internet.
（ ）31. What will happen to the record companies?
A. They will sell latest albums online.
B. They will become less important in the Internet society.
C. They will cut the expense on producing the music.
D. They will go and find new music talents through the Internet.
D
What makes a person a giver or a taker? The idea of "give vs. take" takes shape in all interactions (互动)and relationships of our lives. We're either giving advice, making time for people, or we're on the receiving end. We keep changing between the two based on different situations on a daily basis, if not an hourly one.
According to Adam Grant, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, most people are matchers. They make careful observations on takers and make it a point for them to pay something back. They hate to see people who act so generously towards others not receive any rewards. Actually, most matchers will try hard to improve and support givers so that they can get the good they deserve.
Is there a gender factor (性别因素) that plays a part in this?
A study led by Hannah Riley Bowles, a professor at Harvard University, focused on this question. She asked 200 senior managers to sit down in pairs where one person would act as the boss and the other as an employee to discuss salary rise. Male "employees" asked for an average salary of $146 k while the females asked for only $141 k. But why did they not bargain as hard as the men? Simply because they were more likely to be givers.
As a woman, I do enjoy the act of giving up my time, my knowledge, and my care and attention to others. I expect anything in return, but I do tend to pull myself away when I feel like I'm being taken for granted(被认为当然). I also tend to get upset when I see a loved one's continuous actions of kindness go unnoticed. So, it's safe to say I'm 50% giver, 35% matcher and 15% taker.
I do know someone, however, who is 99% giver. They're continually devoting their time, sharing valuable insights (见解) and going out of their way for everyone who crosses their path. Although they've changed the lives of many people, they hardly see any of it returned. But the universe is slowly repaying them; they're now extremely successful, well known for what they do.
（ ）32. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Most people think they are givers.
B. People are not always givers or takers.
C. An individual is born to be a giver or a taker.
D. Few differences exist between givers and takers.
（ ）33. What can we learn from Grant’s opinion?
A. Most people hate takers.
B. Most people prefer giving to taking.
C. Most people enjoy relying on themselves.
D. Most people balance giving and taking.
（ ）34. What did Hannah's study focus on?
A. The role of giving and taking in jobs.
B. The gender difference in giving and taking.
C. The role of men and women in society.
D. The salary difference between women and men.
（ ）35. Which of the following represents the author’s point of view?
A. Giving is the shortest path to success. B. Sharing is the greatest human quality.
C. No good deed goes undone. D. Givers are worth respecting.

Ever since the key message, 61 is “Never forget why you started”, was put forward last year, it has been widely accepted in China. To be frank, the same message 62 (apply) to everyone’s life.
Ambitions, meaning things you want to achieve very much, play 63 important role in our daily life. When I was a student, my father told me that his ambition since his childhood was to be a translator. He wanted to work inside big buildings as a white-collar worker. With this strong ambition in mind, he was determined 64 (work) hard at every subject, 65 (particular) English, and as a result, he 66 (admit) to the best university in his province. Afterwards, he came to Shanghai for a job. There was one thing he regretted; he didn’t get a job as a translator but became a teacher instead. This story gave birth to my ambition and it “told” me to realize this dream.
With time 67 (go) by, some people forget their ambitions. How can you keep your ambitions alive? First of all, writing down your ambition is a good way to remind you. Second, take action to stay closer to your ambition. For example, I have to memorize English words to 68 (large) my vocabulary. I also try to speak English as much as I can so that I can communicate with 69 (foreign) freely.
“Never forget why you started” is the key 70 your success. If you find your ambition, catch it quickly, protect it qnd keep it in your heart.

Since I was a kid, I’ve considered different job I would like to do. First, I wanted to be a fireman, whose uniform looked so coolly. Then, when I was in the five grade, I wanted to be a teacher because I liked my English teacher very much. When I studied chemistry high school, I reconsidered my goal or decided to be a doctor. They were two reasons for the decision. One was that I was amazing at the fact that a sick person could feel much more better after seeing a doctor. And the another was that I want to help people in need.
