As high school students, Sang Tian and Huang Yunru dreamed of attending one of the world’s top universities. They slaved over their studies and were in the end admitted to famous schools – only one turned out to be far more famous than the other, according to new ranking (排名)of Asia’s top schools.
Huang Yunru, 19, went to the University of Hong Kong, the No 1 school in Asia. Sang, also 19, went to Tsinghua University, which was ranked a disappointing 16th in Asia. When Sang heard the news, he couldn’t believe his ears. “What? How can it be?” he said, greatly surprised.
The new list of Asia’s top 200 universities was published last month by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), a UK-based career and education company. The ranking have started heated discussions among Chinese people, since the mainland’s top two schools – Peking University (PKU) and Tsinghua University – were not in the top 10.
Actually, this isn’t the first time that the schools have gone on poorly in regional or global ranking. The 2010 world university list released by the magazine US News & World Report ranked Peking University at 50th and Tsinghua University at 56th. They were the only two mainland schools in the top 100. Meanwhile, 37 US universities made the top 100 list. And three of 10 Hong Kong universities made the top 50.Chinese universities’ poor performance has saddened many students. “I can’t understand their standards,” said Sang. “At least we are a university with a long, proud history.”
According to the QS list, Chinese universities are doing OK in academic peer review, with both Tsinghua and Peking University scoring a full 100. But when it comes to student-to-faculty ratio(师生比), their ranking drops, with Tsinghua at 22th and Peking at 23rd.John Hennessy, president of Stanford University, said at the Fourth Chinese-Foreign University Presidents Forum in early May that a lack of small-group discussions has seriously affected the teaching quality at Chinese universities. This has also resulted in students being afraid to question or challenge teachers.
小题1:Peking University (PKU) and Tsinghua University were in the top 10 in the ranking of Asia’s top schools.
小题2:There were no top 100 universities in the

小题3:Hong Kong universities are doing much better than the Chinese mainland ones in the ranking.
小题4:Peking University (PKU) and Tsinghua University are so famous that they are not worried about the result at all.
小题5: One of the reasons for the mainland’s universities’ disappointing ranking is that there are simply not enough teachers for the large number of students.

举一反三
So long as teachers fail to tell teaching from learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children what children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not simply passing reading on to them. Certainly we shouldn’t have spent endless hours in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible.”
Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient(效率高的) system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.
Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.
If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest(探索)for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children.”
When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated(消除). Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading. Practice makes perfect, you know.

A.it is one of the most difficult school courses
B.students spend endless hours in reading
C.reading tasks are assigned with little guidance
D.too much time is spent in teaching about reading
73.The underlined word “scrutiny” in the third paragraph probably means “ ”.
A.agreement B.observation C.control D.distance
74.According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when _______.
A.children become very active in reading activities
B.teacher and learner roles are thought important
C.teaching helps children in the search for knowledge
D.reading enriches children’s experience
75.The main idea of the passage is that _______.
A.teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read
B.teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible
C.reading ability is something acquired rather than taught
D.reading is more complicated than generally believed

In big 50 it said, “I’M A PERFECT LITTLE ANGEL(天使)!” I looked back up into her tearful eyes and, 51 seeing a bad girl who didn’t listen, I saw a little angel full of 52 that I had come dangerously close to 53 . “Sweetheart, let’s take a picture so Mommy can see how 54 you look.” I took the picture and thanked God that I didn’t miss the chance to prove what a perfect little angel 55 had given me.

Marie Sklodowska was the daughter of a Polish teacher. She was a very intelligent little girl; she could read when she was only four years old. Her father taught science at a school in Warsaw. Marie went to his school when she was fourteen years old. She was very interested in science and mathematics, and liked to help his father in his laboratory. She was a very good student and left school with a gold medal.
Marie wanted to be a scientist like her father. In 1891 her sister Bronya invited her to go to Paris. There she began to learn science and mathematics at the famous university of the Sorbonne. At first Marie could speak only a little French, but he worked hard and soon passed her examination. In Paris Marie met another scientist Pierre Curie, and in 1895 she married him.
In 1898 both the Curies decided to investigate the radioactive elements in pitchblende. The Austrians gave them a lot of pitchblende for their work, and the Curies began to experiment with it slowly and carefully. They worked hard for four years, and at last Marie obtained a very small piece of radioactive element—radium. It weighed only one tenth of a gramme, but it was pure radium and it shone with a wonderful light. The new element was valuable to science, but it was beautiful too.

When do people decide whether or not they want to become friends? During their first four minutes together, according to a book by Dr. Leonard Zunin. "Every time you meet someone in a social situation, give him your undivided attention for four minutes. A lot of people"s whole lives would change if they did just that."
When we are introduced to new people, we should try to appear friendly and self-confident. In general, he says, "People like people who like themselves." On the other hand, we should not make the other person think we are too sure of ourselves.
Hearing such advice, one might say, "But I"m not a friendly, self-confident person. That"s not my nature. It would be dishonest for me to act that way." In reply, Dr. Zunin would claim that a little practice can help us feel comfortable about changing our social habits. We can become accustomed to any changes we choose to make in our personality. "It"s like getting used to a new car. It may be unfamiliar at first, but it goes much better than the old one."
But isn"t it dishonest to give the appearance of friendly self-confidence when we don"t actually feel that way? Perhaps, but according to Dr. Zunin, "total honesty" is not always good for social relationships, especially during the first few minutes of contact. There is a time for everything, and a certain amount of play-acting may be best for the first few minutes of contact with a stranger. That is not the time to complain about one"s health or to mention faults one finds in other people. It is not the time to tell the whole truth about one"s opinions and impressions.
The author also declares that interpersonal relations should be taught as a required course in every school, along with reading, writing, and mathematics. In his opinion, success in life depends mainly on how we get along with other people. That is at least as important as how much we know.
69. When first introduced to new people, we should________.
A. be friendly and sure of ourselves regardless of the other people"s feeling
B. always tell the whole truth even if it hurts
C. appear friendly and self-confident at least for the first few minutes
D. mention faults we find in the other people
70. According to the author"s advice, interpersonal relations________.
A. should be set as a required course in schools
B. are more important than other courses in school
C. are less important than reading, writing and mathematics
D. is the only key to one"s success in life
71. The underlined word "play-acting" in the fourth paragraph means________.
A. being totally honest B. being a little dishonest
C. acting out what one feels D. acting in a play
72. The best title for the passage could be________.
A. The Key to Success B. Best Ways to Make Friends
