Many of Oxford's 38 colleges are open to the public year­round. Here are a few of the colleges worth visiting and some famous people who have studied there： Christ Church College Long before it became known as a location for the Harry Potter films, Christ Church was the college where Albert Einstein, author Charles Dodgson who wrote Alice in Wonderland, and 13 British prime ministers studied. In the largest and one of the most popular colleges, you'll want to see the paintings in the 16th­century Great Hall, historic Christ Church Cathedral -- England's smallest cathedral, and listen to Great Tom, the seven­ton tower bell. Magdalen College Many consider Magdalen to be one of the most beautiful of Oxford's colleges. This is where author Oscar Wilde read “Greats” (a classics course) in the 1870s, and where actor, comedian and pianist Dudley Moore earned a scholarship to study music. See the medieval (中世纪的) church with its 15th­century tower. Opposite the college is the beautiful Botanic Garden — Britain's oldest — founded in 1621. Merton College Founded in 1264, Merton has the oldest medieval library in use. J.R.R. Tolkien is said to have spent many hours here writing The Lord of the Rings. One of the college's treasures is an astrolabe ( 星 盘 ), thought to have belonged to Chaucer. The college has “the most amazing” collection of medieval coloured glass in Oxford. Bodleian Library The Bodleian Library, the main research library of the University of Oxford, is the largest university library in the UK. It is one of the oldest libraries in Europe, and in Britain is second in size only to the British Library. It holds more than 9 million printed items on 189 km of shelving and seats up to 2,500 readers. The users of the library here include five kings, 40 Nobel Prize winners, 25 British prime ministers and countless famous writers. 21.If a Harry Potter fan travels to Oxford, he'll probably visit ________.

Nowadays there is usually a telephone not far away and the first we should do, if a serious accident happens, send to telephone for an ambulance. Sometimes quick action by us may save someone's life. Shock. People often suffer from shock after receiving an injury, sometimes even when the injure is a small one. The face turns grey, and the skin becomes damp and cold. They breathe quickly. They should be kept warm. Cover them with a blanket and give them a warm drink. Broken bones. Do not move the patient. Send for an ambulance at once. Threat for shock if necessary. Bleeding. A little bleeding doesnˈt harm. It washes dirt from the wound. But if the bleeding continues, try to stop it by placing a clean cloth firmly over the wound until the bleeding stops or helps arrive.

With some poisons, sleeping pills, for example, it is a good thing to make the patient throw up by pressing your fingers down his throat.

On April 16, 1958, at age 38, she died from cancer. Franklin was responsible for much of the research and discovery work that led to the understanding of the structure of DNA. Franklin was interested in science and attended one of the few girls' schools in London that taught physics and chemistry. When she was 15, she decided to become a scientist. Her father was decidedly against higher education for women and wanted her to be a social worker. Franklin's aunt decided to support her and she agreed to pay for her full schooling. Within weeks, Franklin's aunt got her mother to support her going to college also. Months later, Franklin's aunt and mother got her father to agree with it. Franklin was very excited that she was going to college and she was very lucky that she did! After her graduation from college, Franklin started her research on DNA. However, there were so many quarrels in her life because Franklin and her research partner did not get along. Franklin and her partner's arguments set them back on the study of DNA quite a bit. At the time they were working against another pair to find the story of DNA. Due to Franklin and her partner's fights, another pair found the structure of DNA first. They had won the Nobel Prize for it. They won it four years after Franklin died. Many scientists felt sorry for her early death and thought that the winners had stolen her research about DNA.南宁市第四十二中学 2020 年春季学期学分认定考试（高二英语） 6 28. We can learn from the text that Franklin ________.

A. it was not easy for Franklin to go to college B. Franklin's aunt loved her than others C.

What's the best title for the text? A. The life of a woman scientist B. DNA and good education C. How DNA was found? D. Should girls study or not? D The media provides us with the observations and experiences from which we build up our personal understanding of the world and how it works. Much of our view of reality is based on media messages.The media, to a great extent, gives us our sense of reality. Freedom of the media carries with it certain responsibilities of honesty, fairness, accuracy and accountability. The power of the media to create and destroy human values comes with great responsibility. The media is powerful in the political system, having great influence on politics and on forming social change. The power is to decide who will communicate what to whom. Television can greatly influence the election of a national leader on the basis of his or her image. Professional journalists do have a code of ethics (道德标准)．Journalists make a judgment about what's safe and appropriate to report, which often involves difficult choices. German sociologist Max Weber distinguishes between “ethics of conviction” and “ethics of responsibility”．According to the 南宁市第四十二中学 2020 年春季学期学分认定考试（高二英语） 7 latter (ethics of responsibility), journalists must take into account the foreseeable consequences of their reporting, and the impact it will have on society. The former, on the other hand, asks journalists to tell the truth, regardless of the consequences.According to Weber, both ideas of ethics should be considered. Without doubt, information is power, and the big owners of the mass media are very powerful people. Television and radio stations, newspapers, magazines, and websites are, largely, owned and controlled by profit­making businesses. It is not strange that their ideas will get promoted at times. It is my view that such power and responsibility should never be left in the hands of a few. I believe it is our responsibility as concerned citizens to make sure we are not merely passive viewers, readers or listeners. Together we can have a huge influence on the media by making our views known. 32. What's the first paragraph mainly about? A. Responsibilities of the media. B. Influence of the media. C. History of the media. D. Problems of the media. 33. We can learn from the third paragraph that ________. A. the media is more interested in politics than other fields B. forming social change is the main duty of the media C. the great power of the media is controlled by political figures D. the media can affect politics by forming political figures' images 34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. The mass media should be owned by the government. B. The media industry has developed into a new age in recent years. C. The media tends to promote the ideas of their owners sometimes. D. In most cases, journalists are more powerful than the owners of the media. 35. In the writer's opinion, citizens should ________. A. trust the mass media B. become an influence on the media C. know how the media works D. try to report news themselves南宁市第四十二中学 2020 年春季学期学分认定考试（高二英语） 8 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。 36._______, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers.
