Can you imagine a classroom missing the one thing that has long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing? No paper. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test papers. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to run out of ink at the critical moment. A “paperless classroom” is what more and more schools are trying to achieve. Students don’t do any handwriting in this class. Instead, they use palm-sized, or specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every student’s personal computer. Having computers also means that students can use the Wed. They can look up information on any subject they’re studying, from Maths to social science. High school teacher Judy Herrell in Florida., US, described how her class used the Wed to refugee camps,” she said. “Using a book that’s three or four years old is impossible.” A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper each week to each student. “Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers,” she said. But, with all this technology, there’s always the risk that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available for these hi-tech students. 1.In a paperless classroom, what is a must? A. Pens. B. Computers. C. Textbooks D. Pencils. 2.The high school teacher, Judy Harrell, used the example of her class to show that ________ A. the Web could take them everywhere B. the Web taught them everything. C. the Web is a good tool for information D. the Web is where you can download information 3.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of a paperless classroom? A. You won’t get angry with your pen. B. Computers may break down sometimes. C. Students can get information from Internet. D. A lot of money or money or trees will be saved.

Do dogs understand us? Be careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think. A border collie named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩). In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words. In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before. The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by process of elimination(排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive. Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种)known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months. It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return! 1.From paragraph 3 we know that _________. A. animals are as clever as human beings B. dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzees C. chimpanzees have very good word-learning skills D. dogs have the same speaking abilities as 3-year-old children 2.Both experiments show that____________ A. Rico is smart enough to get all commands right B. Rico can recognize different things including toys C. Rico has developed the ability of learning mathematics D. Rico won't forget the names of objects once recognizing them 3.Which of the following statements is true? A. The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's physical abilities. B. Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training. C. The Border collie is world-famous for fetching objects. D. Rico is born to understand all its owner's commands. 4.What does the writer want to tell us? A. To train your dog. B. To talk to your dog. C. To be friendly to your dog. D. To be careful with your dog.

Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough，the answer to both these questions is yes．To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth，and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence．On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings．Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth，but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts can be supported in a number of ways． It is easy to say that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with．The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence．Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different．If on the other hand we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other．Relations like brothers and sisters，parents and children，usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth． Imagine that now we take two identical twins and put them in different environments．We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring．We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part．This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence． 1.By using the example that two people closer in blood relationship are closer in intelligence that writer wants to prove _________． A．intelligence is given at birth B．intelligence can be developed by environment C．intelligence can be developed by experience D．education plays an important part in the development of education 2.A child who lives in rich and varied surroundings turns out higher in intelligence because ________． A．his family is rich and therefore can afford to develop his intelligence B．he can break the limits of intelligence fixed at birth C．his family is rich and provides him with various healthy food D．these surroundings are likely to help him reach the limits of their intelligence 3.Writer of this article believes that _________． A．the development of one’s intelligence is determined by many factors working together B．environment plays the most important role in the development of intelligence C．education plays the most important role in the development of intelligence D．birth plays the most important role in the development of intelligence 4.The best title for this passage might be __________． A．Intelligence B．Birth and Environment C．The Answer to a Question D．Intelligence and Education

1.But still there is a danger that grows every year．Airliners get larger．Some airplanes can hold over 300 passengers．And the air itself becomes more and more crowded．If one giant airliner crashed into another in mid-air, 600 lives could be lost． 2.．Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down．The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may handle 2500 planes a day．Not all of them actually land at the airport．Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there．3. Recently such a disaster almost happened．4.One, with 69 passengers, had come from Toronto, and the other, with 176 passengers, from Chicago, An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other．He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb．But he made a mistake．He ordered the wrong plane to do this．Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane．They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second．The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. 5.. A． Even a small mistake on their part could cause a disaster． B． Two large jets were flying towards the airport． C． Nowadays people like traveling more by air than by car． D． Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a bus motor-way． E． This is an example of the danger that grows every year． F． In a word, air travel is more dangerous, we should choose others． G． From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screen．

One day, Mrs. White went to the car park to get her car. While she got to the car park, she found that someone stolen her car. So he rushed to the police station and told the police about it. Meanwhile, the next morning, the car was in its usual parking place in the car park. Inside the car is a note, “We are sorry that we stole your car. We really needed for an emergency trip to the hospital. Please receive these two tickets for Saturday’s show at the Great Theater.” Mrs. White’s husband said, “Criminals are a lot more politely nowadays. They are educated people.” So they went to the show. When they returned home, there was something left in the house except a note saying that, “Hope you enjoyed the show!”
