Older people must be given more chances to learn if they are to contribute to society rather than be a financial burden, according to a new study on population published recently.

     The current approach which     21     on younger people and on skills for employment is not      22    to meet the challenge of demographic (人口结构的) change, it says. Only 1% of the education budget is currently spent on the oldest of the population.

  And there should be more money      30     to support people in establishing a sense of identity and finding constructive roles for the “ third age”, the 20 or more years they will spend in healthy retired life.

Can you believe your eyes? A recent experiment suggests that the answer to that question may depend on your age.

Martin Doherty, a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland, led the team of scientists. In this experiment, Doherty and his team tested the perception(观察力) of some people, using pictures of some orange circles. The researchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people. The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10, and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25.

The first group of pictures showed two circles alone on a white background. One of the circles was larger than the other, and these people were asked to identify the larger one. Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 percent of the time. Adults identified the correct circle 95 percent of the time.

Next, both groups were shown a picture where the orange circles, again of different sizes, were surrounded by gray circles. Here’s where the trick lies in. In some of the pictures, the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller gray circles — making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle, which was the real larger one. And the larger orange circle was surrounded by even bigger gray circles — so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle.

When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures, they weren’t fooled — they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the same accuracy as before. Older children and adults, on the other hand, did not do as well. Older children often identified the smaller circle as the larger one, and adults got it wrong most of the time.

As children get older, Doherty said, their brains may develop the ability to identify visual context. In other words, they will begin to process the whole picture at once: the tricky gray circles, as well as the orange circle in the middle. As a result, they’re more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick.

 

1.Doherty and his team of scientists did an experiment to evaluate        .

A.children’s and adults’ eye-sight

B.people’s ability to see accurately

C.children’s and adults’ brains

D.the influence of people’s age

2.When asked to find the larger circle,        .

A.children at 6 got it wrong 79 % of the time with no gray ones around

B.only adults over 18 got it right 95% of the time with gray ones around

C.children at 4 got it right about 79 % of the time with gray ones around

D.adults got it right most of the time with gray ones around

3.According to the passage, we can know that        .

A.a smaller orange circle appears bigger on a white background

B.an orange circle appears bigger than a gray one of the same size

C.a circle surrounded by other circles looks bigger than its real size

D.a circle surrounded by bigger ones looks smaller than its real size

4.Visual context may work when children get older than        .

A.4                                     B.6                                     C.10                                   D.18

5.Why are younger children not fooled?

A.Because they are smarter than older children and adults.

B.Because older people are influenced by their experience.

C.Because people’s eyes become weaker as they grow older.

D.Because their brain can hardly notice related things together.

It is time for students to sell such things as chocolate bars and greeting cards to raise money for their school, class or club. It is inevitable that they will knock on your door and you will easily hand ever your cash for overpriced items that you really do not want. That is okay, though, because there are many reasons why children should be allowed to raise money for their schools and clubs.

Fundraising(自筹资金) is a great way to help children learn social skills. It is not easy to go up to a complete stranger and ask them for their money. They have to nicely ask for help, show the interested buyer what they have to offer and explain how it will help them in school. If someone refuses to buy an item, that child has to take the failure in stride(从容处理), and that is a learning lesson as well.

Students can learn how to deal with money by fundraising. Of course, it might seem safer for us to take charge of our children’s earnings from their fundraising before it is turned in to the school. However, by making them keep track of it, count it, and make sure everyone pays the right amount, they are learning an important lesson. Dealing with money is important to know about when they are older.

Fundraising helps improve their schools. It is the child’s school. They have to learn there and grow there. Why not let them help in making it a better place? When one of our local schools lacked funding for sports, the students and parents joined hands to raise that money needed. When they succeeded, they felt they accomplished something important.

Fundraising allows for more life experiences for the child. Most fundraising is done for individual classes and clubs. The raised money is used towards things like parties, trips. The children receive the rewards for their hard work at raising the money. Without fundraising, these field trips and special school memories would be missed.

In a word, fundraising helps children a lot in many ways.

6ec8aac122bd4f6eFor many of us, printed books are satisfying in ways beyond the words they contain. Billions of printed books have been published, read and saved in the 600 years since movable type was invented, so why mess with a good things?

         Sony Electronics is doing just that, betting that readers will be won over by the convenience of readability of its new electronic book devices. Sony's reader, the PRS-505, can hold 160 books in its fixed memory, enough to line the shelves on a good-sized wall in the average American home. The $299 device is about the size of a paperback book, but a half-inch thick and weighs less than a pound.

The Sony book reader is revolutionary not only in its storage capacity. The font(字体) is highly readable and adjustable by size. Unlike laptop computers, you can put the Sony in your purse, read it in direct sunlight and even bookmark the pages. And you can connect it to your PC to download books.

Surprisingly, though the reader has liberated the book from paper, electronic books aren't always a bargain. For example, David Baldacci's "Stone Cold" download retails(零售) for $15.19 at the Sony site, while Amazon(卓越网) will deliver a hard copy to your mailbox for $16.19.

The Sony reader also lets you store and play or display music. So what's not to like about the Sony? Well, for many bibliophiles, a lot. Book lovers like to have, hold and keep their volumes, which don't need charging. You can write notes in the margins, and enjoy the ambience they provide on your book shelves.

The need for electronic reading devices is likely to grow as more people worried about the billions of tons of paper used for printed material. Many believe the time will come when devices like the Sony reader are as common as printed newspapers and magazines today.

 

1.What would be the best title for the passage?

         A. The age of the electronic book reader is coming

         B. Printed books are out of date

         C. The Sony reader meets many readers’ needs

         D. The revolution in book readers

2.According to the passage, the Sony book reader _________.

         A. is as light as a laptop computer                   

B. can hold more than 200 books

         C. is convenient to carry around                       

D. cannot be connected to a PC

3.What is the author’s point when he mentions “Stone Cold”?

         A. Amazon’s printed books are very cheap

         B. “Stone Cold” can be got from the Sony site and Amazon

         C. The Sony book reader is not very cheap to use

         D. The Sony book reader can benefit its buyers a lot

4.The underlined word “bibliophiles” in Paragraph 5 refers to “__________”.

         A. music lovers                                              B. book lovers

         C. electronic reading devices           D. Sony readers

5.According to the author, what’s the future for the electronic reading devices?

         A. They’ll replace printed newspapers and magazines

         B. They’ll still be more expensive than printed newspapers

         C. They’ll become a must in people’s daily life

         D. They’ll become more popular as time goes on

Dear Patti

I’m writing to you for some advice on my studies. As you know, football is a very popular sport in the world and I am attracted to it and I have fallen in love with it, which makes me feel so crazy. I have spending lots of time doing many things related to it, like watching football matches, reading newspapers and magazines, and searching the Web for more information about football. As a result, it has certainly disturbed my normal study. Though I know to be a football fan is my hobby and my major adjective is to learn more knowledge in school, I can’t concentrate on my lessons and gradually I am tired of them. I am still a senior middle school student, and I’ll have my own business even when I grow up, so I am not likely to do a job in the field of football. But now I can’t stop myself from getting involved further with football. So I feel very depressed and want to know how to deal with the contradiction .

Sincerely yours,

阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

     Nowadays, the pressures on schools and teachers are often passed on to students and parents. Students are tested more and assigned more homework. In the past 25 years, homework assignments have risen by 51% according to a 2008 study at the University of Michigan. That is an average of 12 extra hours of homework per week!

     Excessive homework often leaves no time for students to have fun or do something for themselves. Many parents spend at least three hours every night going through their children's work.

      However, the governments' efforts to cut the homework burden of primary and middle school students have drawn mixed reactions.  Ironically, though teachers have been widely criticized for piling on homework, it is parents who sometimes ask for more work for their children! When teachers don't give homework, some parents will go to the school and complain. They want teachers to assign homework every day as a means of making sure teachers do their job and the children have work to do.

    【写作内容】

    你们班级打算就“Homework”这一主题召开一次班会。并发给每人一份上面的英语短文,你和同学都积极响应,并打算就这一主题发表各自的看法。请你准备写一份发言稿,内容要点包括:
