It doesn"t matter where you live--in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village--the chances
are that you" 11 be disturbed by jet planes, transistor radios, oil - powered engines, etc. We seem
to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background music while
they" re working.
Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be a very frightening experience for a human being.
However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their
eardrums(耳鼓). The noise level in some discos is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial
areas.
One recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say
that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really influences their ability to concentrate is a change
in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise which doesn"t change too much(music,
for example) may even help people to concentrate.

Figures show that - despite the rise in A-grades to 21. 6 per cent - only 22,000 out of 600,000
18-year-olds gain three A-grade passes. Put another way, that means - in a primary class of 30 pupils -
only one will get three A-grades. The center right Bow Group, in a pamphlet published today, however,
says nine out of ten scholars believe A-grades have been devalued over the past ten years
Two inquiries (调查) - both set up by the Government"s exams watchdogs - one of which included
independent teaching experts, refused to accept that there had been any "dumping down" of A-level
standards. But while they conclude that the exam questions have not become easier, changes in examining methods have almost certainly made it easier to gain top-grade passes.
As a result of the exams shake-up introduced in 2000, students sit six different types of exams to make up an A-level during the course of their two years of study. Only 20 per cent of the marks are set for the
end-of-term exam. This makes it easier for teachers to help their pupils with the right answers.
Mr Miliband said yesterday, "My argument is not that today"s generation of pupils are cleverer than
their parents; it is that schools and teachers are getting better at getting the best out of them."
B. the rise in the A-level pass rate has made the exam worthless
C. the quality of the 18-year-olds has become lower
D. it is still hard for the general pupils to get three A-grade passes
B. the independent teaching experts
C. the A-level standards
D. the two inquiries
B. the exam became easier than it had been before 2000
C. pupils could have many more choices of test after 2000
D. it soon became popular with teachers and pupils
B. How the A-level system helps universities select pupils.
C. How the pass rate has been increased in recent years.
D. How the A-level grading system has changed over the years.

them to enjoy learning. Some students will be happier in an open education school. They will
not have to worry about grades or rules. For students who worry about these things a lot, it is
a good idea to be in an open classroom.
But many students will not do well in an open classroom. For some students, there are too
few rules. These students will do little in school. They will not make good use of open education.
Because open education is so different from traditional education, these students may have a problem
getting used to making so many choices. For many students it is important to have some rules in the
classroom. They worry about the rules even when there are no rules. Even a few rules will help this
kind of students. The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it.
Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom
may have many problems at their schools.
You now know what open education is. Some of its good points and bad points have been explained.
You may have your own opinion about open education. The writer thinks that open education is a
good idea, but only in theory. In actual fact, it may not work very well in a real class or school. The
writer believes that most students, but of course not all students, want some structure in their classes.

阅读下面短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。(请注意问题后的词数要求)
especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we become stronger and braver.
Our human nature should be to take risks, but some people just sit and wish they didn"t have the fear to move on.This is because of one or two failures in their lives. Please step out and don"t let the past hold you back from living life to the fullest. Move forward and move on!
In studying the psychology of taking risks, we find that human nature provides us with the desire to
experiment and take chances.
Risk taking is a great benefit that allowed our ancestors ( 祖先) to become stronger and stronger day
by day. By taking risks they fought off enemies and discovered new land. This attitude has become a part of our modem culture.Riding a roller coaster is a common risk taking activity that even the average person seems to enjoy although they have the understanding that it is dangerous.
Getting in a car each day is a risk. Getting out of bed is a risk. We need to take risks so that we can
finish many things. Astronauts take risks when they get inside a rocket; however, the things they achieve
are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company. However, without doing that, they
could not make more money.
We need to take risks so that we can gain something. It is impossible to move forward in life, earn
money, enjoy a relationship, play a sport, or do anything else____. It is all part of the game. It"s one of the most important parts of life.

A Beijing-based company named Innofidei Inc. claims to have developed the first mobile TV chip for
the market, which can change hundreds of thousands of mobiles into micro-TVs.
With this chip, people can receive TV signals on their phones and watch programs without any time or space limitations.
"As long as the handset terminal (接收终端设备) has a colored screen and a battery, our chip can turn it into a mobile TV," said Meng Fei, director of Innofidei"s business development department. The chip can be placed into a cell phone, a PDA, an MP4, a digital camera or even a laptop. He said that this, together with plans by China"s state broadcaster, would ensure the 2008 Games lives up to its promise as a
"People"s Olympics".
"Our chips are cheap so that cell phones with them will not be much different in price from regular
phones," Meng said. "CCTV will offer some free channels during the Games, so people can enjoy the
Olympics for free."
SARFT(国家广播电影电视总局) is planning to build a regional test network in Beijing and hopes to start trials as soon as possible. The goal is to deploy CMMB (部署中国移动多媒体广播) on a national level by the first half of 2008.
Innofidei is now busy selling their chips to cell phone makers so that the new generation of phones
reaches the market in early 2008.
"Our invention successfully combines the good points of the two best-selling consumer products in
history-TV sets and cell phones, " said Meng. "In the near future, soccer fans won"t be tearing their hair out because they are stuck in traffic and missing the chance to see their favorite team"s play."
Local baseball fans, meanwhile, will be able to draw comfort from the knowledge that-both at the
Olympics and afterwards-their teams will be playing on a field designed to help recycle water.
B. A PDA.
C. An MP3.
D. A laptop.
B. People watch video CDs on the MP4.
C. A game addict plays 3D games on a PDA.
D. Listening to news broadcast on radio.
B. soccer fans will be angry when they miss the chance to see a TV program.
C. the baseball field will play a part in helping recycle water.
D. the invention of the chip successfully combines TV sets and cell phones.
B. A new generation of cell phones
C. Watching live games on TV for free
D. People"s Olympics
message. Though for many years science has cautioned against hearing too much of what we humans
would like to hear when we are trying to understand animal sounds, the musicality in some sounds is now
starting to have an effect on the science of animal communication itself.
Many specific animal sounds express aggression(进攻), warning, or food, but such practical
explanations are tough to apply to the long songs. Some whale songs can go on for up to 24 hours. The
usual explanation for birdsong is that the birds are singing to attract mates or to announce the limits of their area. But the audience is not always evident for these long love songs, which have many of the elements
related to human music: rhythm, melody (旋律), themes, repeating patterns
![](http://img.shitiku.com.cn/uploads/allimg/20191216/20191216130915-68675.png)
What is the scientific value of such sounds? The advantage of hearing music in nature and trying to
reach out to nature through music is that though we don"t fully understand it, it is so accessible.
Music refuses explanation, but it clearly expresses something deep and important, which humans can"t
live without. Finding music in the sound of birds, whales and other animals makes the farther frontiers
(边缘) of nature see much closer to us.
B. fought against
C. been filled with
D. been satisfied with
B. It is believed that birds are singing to attract mates or to warn the limits of their areas.
C. The songs of a bird really carry an emotional message such as "aggression and caring".

B. Birds can teach people how to go on singing a song up to 24 hours.
C. Human music has, in fact, come from the sounds of birds in nature.
D. Humans learned something beautiful from the sounds of many animals
B. is very easy to pick up and listen to
