问答题The image many of us may have of a language teacher is someone drilling a classroom full of teenagers in the finer points of French or German grammar in a way not self-evidently relevant to the outside world. But the past decade has seen big changes to the way language teaching is organised and delivered in English schools. (1) The age range of pupils where language teaching is compulsory has shifted downwards. Now, all children start learning a foreign language, albeit gradually, when they're just seven and continue until they're 14. Previously the compulsory age range was between 11 and 16. (2) At the same time, the methods of language teaching have become much more targeted towards enabling young people to communicate in the spoken word rather than to get every single dot and comma correct in the written form. And the range of languages taught in schools has expanded enormously. Spanish, French and German remain the most popular choices, but Italian, Russian, Mandarin, Urdu, Bengali and a host of others are also taught in an increasing number of classrooms. (3) So, for the graduate or native speaker of almost any world language, a career as a school teacher is a realistic and attractive prospect. And it's one being followed by large numbers every year. Last September, around 1,700 graduates started one-year Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) training courses to become foreign language teachers in secondary schools, each offering competence in at least two foreign languages, French and Spanish being the most common. And there are now increasing numbers of training to become primary teachers with a language specialism, a training route introduced three years ago. (4) Here, trainees prepare to handle all subjects across the timetable, as well as to develop an additional expertise in introducing foreign language learning to pupils. Around 3,000 students have embarked on this route so far, most of whom are now working in primary schools. (5) The embedding of language teaching in primary schools—a process which is still far from complete-has also created more localised links between teachers across the primary-secondary divide, as primary schools make use of the greater expertise in nearby secondary staffrooms. This has, in turn, introduced enrichment and variety to many experienced secondary teachers. One such example is Greg Horton, an advanced skills language teacher at Wildern School, a co-educational comprehensive, in Hampshire, who now frequently visits local primary schools to support teachers in language lessons.

问答题城市一直在破坏它们的周围环境，并常常为之付出代价。科学家发现，一座老城在泥土下掩埋了千百年就是因为砍树过多而被洪水淹没的。此外，城市会给市民带来许多问题。据估计，到2050年时，城镇居民的数量将在人类历史上第一次超过农村人数。随后30年内，城市居民人数将达到农村人口的两倍。人类的未来很大程度上将由城市的状况来决定，下几代人的生活质量和解决国家内部及国家之间冲突的机会将取决于各国政府是否能找到办法来控制城市的过快发展。

问答题Ben Was Swell, But He"s Out Old saws are wearing out. Take the case of "The devil finds work for idle hands to do." As recently as fifteen years ago when a mother caught a son loafing around the pornography rack at the corner drugstore, she could take him by the ear and lead him home to wash the windows, with the perfectly satisfactory explanation that "The devil finds work for idle hands to do." Nowadays, the world is different. With the march of automation, idleness is becoming the national occupation and sociologists will speak sternly to mothers who oppose it. Since ever-expanding idleness is the goal of the American economy, it is unpatriotic to mention it in the same breath with Beelzebub. The goal now is to rehabilitate idleness, and the first step in every rehabilitation program is a name change. During World War I, when Germany became the power, the Hunnish sauerkraut was restored to respectability by being renamed "liberal cabbage". In the same way, ugly satanic old idleness is now rechristened "leisure". Leisure sounds ever so much more decent than idleness. It sounds like something that the uptown set might go in for enthusiastically. Idleness was an evil to be taught by placing such weapons as window-washing rags and lawnmowers in the hands of the indolent young. Leisure is merely another typical American problem to be solved by a nexus of committees, study groups and Congressional investigations. Now, if a boy loafs around the pornography, it is merely because he has a "leisure-time problem." The solution is not to put him to work—the machines have most of the jobs well in hand—but to encourage him to take up the oboe or start a bee colony, In this way, we say, he uses his leisure "creatively". The notion of creative leisure is mostly non-sense, of course. The sin that a boy may stumble into by keeping company with oboe players or going to bee-keepers" conventions is considerable, especially if his interest in oboes or bees is only a substitute for loafing around the drugstore. The American economic system must, nevertheless, be justified. And so if a boy follows the oboe path to see his parents are no longer permitted to blame it all on Satan; instead, the parents are indicated for failing to find a creative solution to the leisure-time problem. There are many other pieces of ancient wisdom that have turned obsolete under the bizarre of American prosperity, Take "A penny saved is a penny earned." Sound enough in France, perhaps, but clearly subversive in 1965. The first economic duty of every citizen today is to consume. To keep the economy booming we must consume with our cash, consume with our credit cards, consume with our charge accounts and then go to the bank to borrow the means to consume again. It is obvious that if people begin acting on the theory that "A penny saved is a penny earned," production would fall, unemployment would rise, salutes would be cut and the country would stagnate. Nowadays, the homily should read, "A penny spent is not good enough." Then there is the collapse of "A stitch in time saves nine." To maintain even the present unsatisfactory level of employment, it is absolutely imperative that we never settle for the timely onestitch job when a bit of dallying can make work for nine additional stitchers. As we have seen too many industries, the nine stitches thrown out of work either go on relief—which reduces the timely stitches take-home pay—or turn in desperation to braining the smug stitch-in-time takers for their entire pay envelopes. In this type of economy, the canny stitcher takes his stitch too late. And, of course, there is old "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." Taken literally, this advice would now be disastrous. In the first place, rising early would immediately raise the leisure-time problem to unmanageable proportions. The safest of all leisure-time activities is sleep, and the fellow who rolls out at cock"s crow to work on his oboe is going to be thoroughly sated with leisure by breakfast time. What"s more, early rising tends to make a man reflect on the absurdity of his life. In this mood, he may very well realize that his way of life is insane and decide to change it by saving a penny, thereby triggering an economic catastrophe. Very likely he will go to the office feeling energetic and healthy and, before he can stop himself take a stitch in time, thus causing unemployment raising his taxes and increasing crime. "Early to bed and early to rise" has had its day. So, apparently, has Benjamin Franklin.

问答题Translate the following English passage into Chinese. Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. Most textiles and apparel, cheese, chocolate, and a few other products are subject to U.S. import quotas. They serve to protect domestic industry by limiting the supply and therefore raising the prices of foreign products to U.S. consumers, and by allocating production among supplying countries. For example, a quota on Swiss cheese and so permits other countries to take part of the market. Foreign governments need systems for deciding which of their companies will be able to use their quotas in the U. S. Market, and, of course, they want to get the highest possible value of exports from the allowable quantities. They use different systems to allocate quotas, including auctioning them in blocks. Holders of quotas are often allowed to sell them to other suppliers, who hope to get higher prices from their U. S. Buyers. Customs and Border Protection helps many countries entrance their quota arrangements by requiring that import shipments of quota goods be accompanied by visas issued by the designated authorities in the exporting countries. This means that if your shipment of canned tuna from Thailand reaches U. S. Customs and there is no visa among the documents, it probably cannot be entered. You can apply to the Thai consulate for a visa, but it will not be granted unless the responsible agency in Bangkok gives its approval. If you get tangled up in the Electronic Certification System(eCERT)and the Electronic Visa Information System(ELVIS), you will probably wish it were the Elvis from Graceland, not Customs. Classification specialists in district Customs offices should know the details of quotas on the items they handle, but even they cannot always tell you the annual quota on a specific item from a specific country or how much of the year"s quota is still unfilled. They can, however, translate the HS number of your product into a " Quota Category Number" and tell you where to look to find the quota level and its current status of fulfillment.

问答题It"s midday, and your phone"s battery is dangerously close to the 20 per cent mark. If you"re like the majority of people, that red icon will leave you feeling panicked, annoyed and hunting for a spare charger. L Company has dubbed this condition "Low Battery Anxiety" and says that nearly 9 out of 10 people suffer from the fear of losing power on their phone. The company polled a random sample of more than 2,000 adult smartphone users in the US earlier this year. When it comes to choosing between hitting the gym or charging their smartphone, it found one in three people are likely to skip the gym. But millennials tend to have it worse—with 42 per cent likely to skip the gym when choosing between working out or charging their phone. Smart phone users will even "drop everything" and make a U-turn to head back home to charge their phone.

问答题In reading the pages of American Scientist, I have been struck by the stunning progress being made in science and engineering, new phenomena discovered, new materials synthesized (用合成法合成), new methods developed. 1 What I see behind many of these exciting stories is the widespread and even revolutionary use of distributed intelligence that is made possible by the "wiring" of the scientific community. It is more than a time saver or a communication enhance; it is enabling us to think in new ways and its impact on society may be monumental. The term "information age" probably does not do justice to the possibilities of this emerging era. 2 This is an age of "knowledge and distributed intelligence", in which knowledge is available to anyone, located anywhere, at any time; and in which power, information, and control are moving from centralized systems to individuals . This era calls for a new form of leadership and vision from the academic science and engineering community. We know from countless examples that the academic science and the engineering have enabled our society to make the most of new technologies. We wouldn"t have today"s advanced computer graphics systems if mathematicians hadn"t been able to solve problems related to surface geometry. 3 We wouldn"t have networks capable of handling massive amounts of data if physicists and astronomers hadn"t continuously forged tools to look more deeply into subatomic structures and the cosmos . Chemists" efforts to simulate complex phenomena and predict the properties of many electron systems have inspired massively parallel architectures for computing. And the information made available by the sequencing of the human genome (基因组) has caused us to rethink how to store, manipulate, and retrieve data most effectively. 4 It will take new insights from studies of human cognition, linguistics, neurobiology, computing, and more to develop systems that truly augment our capacity to learn and create . The best may be yet to come. Despite brutally tight constraints on federal discretionary spending, President Clinton has stepped forward to champion a 3 percent increase (uncorrected for inflation) in the national 1998 budget. The president"s request is only the first step in the congressional budget process ahead. 5 Given that the priorities of Congress will almost certainly differ from those of the president, it will take an unprecedented level of input and commitment from the research community to ensure the investments in science and engineering .
