One may be surprised to learn that both of them did not do well in the school. Eisenhower, for example, was once fined (罚款) because he broke the rules of the school.

India is a developing country. It has thousands of years of tradition and culture. Different types of people live in India. In the old days the educational institutions (教育机构) were called "ashramam" and teachers were "gurus". A guru was a respected person in society.
Now we are living in the technological world. Big changes are occurring in people’s living. The influence of television, telephone, radio, computer, Internet and mobile phones is very strong in everyday life. But even today, teachers are role models for students. Teaching is still a respectable job. But there are great changes in the education system.
One of the most obvious changes is that the influence of Western culture has increased. We are paying too much attention to doing business, just like the Western world. Teachers are likely to be influenced by this too, but it is not good. Teachers are nation builders. The development of any country depends upon its education system. All types of development are possible through education.
Another change has happened in the curriculum. The curriculum connects the teacher and the student. While education is about learning, curriculum means the situations in which one learns. When we say that education deals with "what", then curriculum deals with "how" and "when". But at the moment, it is hard to say whether the curriculum is playing such a role.
小题1:
In India, an ashramam was _________.
A.a teacher who was respected by people
B.a person who worked for the government
C.a place where students were taught
D.a place where tradition and culture developed
小题2:Which of the following is NOT a reason to change people’s lives in India?
A.TV. B.Computer. C.Mobile phones. D.Tradition.
小题3:In modern society, teaching is considered as a job that __________.
A.is respected B.brings good luck
C.is hopeless D.connects with the fashion
小题4:What is the author’s attitude towards educational change in India?
A.He likes it. B.He is annoyed at it.
C.He is indifferent (冷漠的)to it.
D.He is worried about it.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, first-class roads, and other support facilities(设施) needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourist hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers(阴沟) to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
小题1:Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage?
A.It is not important to develop tourism. |
B.Building roads and hotels is important. |
C.Support facilities are highly necessary. |
D.Planning is of great importance to tourism. |
A.a bad effect on other industries |
B.a change of the customs of the country |
C.air and water pollution |
D.pressure on traffic |
A.the fact that some people may be out of work |
B.an increase in tourist attractions |
C.the higher cost of support facilities |
D.a rise in price and a fall in pay |
A.carry away | B.pick up | C.get in | D.take down |
One of the first things the common man wants to know about is the part inspiration plays in a composer’s work. He finds it difficult to believe that composers are not much interested in that question. Writing music is as natural for the composer as eating or sleeping for all. Music is something that the composer happens to have been born for.
The composer, therefore, does not say to himself: “Do I feel inspired?” He says to himself: “Do I feel like working today?” And if he feels like working, he does. It is more or less like saying to himself: “Do I feel sleepy?” If you feel sleepy, you go to sleep. If you don’t feel sleepy, you stay up. If the composer doesn’t feel like working, he doesn’t work. It’s as simple as that.
小题1:What would be the best title for the text?
A.Composer: a man of mystery |
B.Practice makes good music |
C.Relation between sleeping and music |
D.Music: product of nature |
A.finds it difficult to write music |
B.considers it important to have a good rest |
C.should like to talk about inspiration |
D.never asks himself very simple questions |
A.are born with a gift for music |
B.are people full of mystery |
C.work late at night for their music |
D.know a lot about eating and sleeping |
