A
Most American students go to traditional public schools. There are about 88,000 public schools all over the US. Some students attend about 3000 independent public schools called charter schools.
Charter schools are self-governing. Private companies operate some charter schools. They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools. They receive tax money just as other public schools do. Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning. These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits them to operate.
Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws governing traditional public schools. Local, state or federal governments cannot tell them what to teach. Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach them. Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.
The Bush Administration strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize public schools that are failing to educate students. But some education agencies and unions oppose charter schools. One teachers’ union has just made public the results of the first national study comparing the progress of students in traditional schools and charter schools.
The American Federation of Teachers criticized the government’s delay in releasing the results of the study, which is called the National Assessment of Educational Progress. Union education experts say the study shows that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests than students in regular public schools.
Some experts say the study is not a fair look at charter schools because students in those schools have more problems than students in traditional schools. Other education experts say the study results should make charter school officials demand improved student progress.

A．try new methods of teaching R175

One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep, I tried everything I could think of : a warm bottle, songs gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, figuring that watching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill of the hours till dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tiptoes out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi's forty-fifth birthday.
My wife and I heard none of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself. 新课标 第一网
I found in my baby's behavior a symbol of the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don't read and they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this

天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion: “Let them watch it!” If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight about it? Let them watch it all they want!
41．Why did the author bring a TV set into his son's room?
A．To make his son keep quiet.
B．To spend the night by watching TV programs.
C．In order not to let his son feel lonely.
D．To make his son go to sleep as soon as possible.

A．a doctor B．a reporter C．an editor D．a teacher

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving．On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting．A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough．Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
politeness when they see it．
However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous．Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in time．The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.
An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users．It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart．
46．The passage mainly talks about .
A．road politeness B．traffic jams C．good manners D．modern drivers
47．Troubles on the road are often caused by .
A．traffic jams B．the behavior of the drivers
C．great speed D．terrible road conditions
48．According to the writer, a good driver should .新-课-标-第-一-网新课标第一网
A．beat back when forced to face rude driving
B．be able to recognize politeness when he sees it
C．encourage old ladies to cross the roads whenever they want to
D．join in traffic stream quickly however other people feel
49．The following statements are right EXCEPT that .
A．some modern drivers are not good at driving
B．road politeness is good sense as well as good manners
C．it is also right to have a tiger in the driver’s seat
D．a friendly driver should nod or wave thanks in answer to an act of politeness
50．It is not always right for drivers to .
A．master roadmanship
B．recognize politeness when they see it
C．wave a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path
D．give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness

D
It may be one of Britain’s most successful exports – Miss World. This 53-year-old event took place in China last week and attracted over 120 women worldwide with knockout looks in a mad struggle for the crown.
Traditional values have long kept the Chinese, especially women, from displaying beauty. But Chinese people have now changed their attitude toward beauty contest, although some men will still be shouting that the winner is no more beautiful than his wife or his former girl friend or even his mother in a sour tone. But such men are not shouting for the right reason. The question to be: Why isn’t there a Mr. World Beauty Contest?
And a further question to be asked is: Does taking part in a beauty contest show a woman’s courage, wisdom and liberation or rather the opposite – a forced choice and a revolting act made under conditions of long-term discrimination?
Organizers of such beauty contests claim that the contestants are judged on qualities other than just their physical appearance. But still no answer is given to why there isn’t a Mr. Beauty or a Mr. World Contest? Or at least, why isn’t that kind of contest popular? Why is it that only women’s “qualities” need to be recognized but not men’s?
Think about who is always standing beside a fancy car on show? Is it a boy or a girl? And this is how “qualities” are judged: if the girl looks good, there is little reason why the car beside her is not of high quality.
The beauty contests go on year after year, with winners enjoying fame which quickly disappears. While such events go on and on, what never changes is the routine practice that in every fancy car show, a girl stands beside a fancy car. What never changes is the need to hold a women’s conference every year to appeal for the promotion of respect for and improvement of women. What never changes is the fate of women as a class. So let’s put more time and resources into trying to change all this rather than holding beauty contests.
51. Miss World Beauty Contest in Britain has a history of ______.
A. 120 years B. about half a century
C. 100 years D. about half a year
52. Which of the following is TRUE to the passage?

A. Chinese women are not allowed to display beauty
B. the winner of Miss World is not as beautiful as his wife
C. some men are not shouting for the right person
D. people can accept a beauty contest in China now
54. From the passage we can know the writer thinks that _____________.
A. contestants’ qualities are more important than their physical appearance
B. a Mr. World Contest should be held instead of a Miss World Contest
C. a boy should stand by a fancy car
D. women’s social status is still low

C. Quality or Appearance?
D. A Boy Standing beside a Fancy Car.

Do you like chocolate? Most people do. Some like it in bars. Others just like big squares of it.
Say you just got a box of chocolate. Which piece do you pick first? A study carried out by a professor in the University of Virginia showed that people’s choices of chocolates show their personality. If you choose a round piece, you are a person who likes to party. If you select an oval（椭圆的）shape, ______________ who works very hard. You like to make things and push yourself to be successful. Picking a square shape shows that you are an honest person to depend on.

According to a recent survey，many students have never said “Thank you” to their parents who have done all they could to bring them up in the past years.
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
天添资源网 http://www.ttzyw.com/
The interviewed students claim such reasons as follows. First, a quarter of them regard it as parents’ duty to support them spiritually and financially. And it is not necessary to express appreciation to them. Half of them are aware of their parents’ tender love but are not accustomed to saying “Thank you”. Another quarter even find a generation gap between themselves and their parents, thus feeling reluctant to express their affection for their parents.
In my opinion, extending thankfulness to our parents is a way of respecting them and their love. We should express our feelings directly and bravely. What’s more ,we should do all we can to reward them with gratitude.
