{{B}}Marsh Cassady:{{/B}} Expect to be the most-hated mother in
school because I will not allow my child to have a TV in his/her own room. I
will also not use the TV as an electronic" babysitter" as so many parents do.
It's not my place to judge others, but I just don't feel it is right for a child
to sit and stare for horns on end when he could be playing or participating in
other activities that are much more appropriate and stimulating.{{B}}Benjamin
Harrison:{{/B}} A lot of parents are not allowing their children
any TV at all until they are much older. The reason is that the constant angle
change of the camera produces passivity in children. They then expect life to be
as "fast and change pace at the level that the TV does. There was once a cartoon
where a child picks up a toy and says, "What does it do?" That's the problem
with TV and young children. It steals their imaginations.{{B}}Robert
MacNell:{{/B}} TV is not that bad, but it's not that good either.
It has its pros and cons. The word here would be" Control". Got to learn
how to have it in moderate amounts, and confirm the information that is
gathered. I love TV because it improves my English speaking skills; it tells me
different accents of different persons in different countries when speaking it.
It makes me laugh sometimes. Discovery channel would be great.{{B}}David
Naster:{{/B}} Basically, I feel freer without a television in my
house. I just feel there is something more natural about life without the
glowing screens, and when I go several months with no exposure to TV, it feels
like I have stepped out of a fishbowl. Of course, to people who watch TV ,the
perception may be just the opposite — I do not live in a fishbowl because I have
exiled myself from the TV culture that so many share.{{B}}Adrienne
Popper:{{/B}} I watch all types of sitcoms, news, talk shows,
documentaries, etc.., in English, Spanish, and a little in German, with a
notebook and a pen beside the set, taking notes OFF slang, idiomatic
expressions, course words, everything teenagers ask me in the classroom (I mean
in English classes ). Otherwise I wouldn't have access to these things. We don't
have many natives at hand to help with them, books won't bring them, so TV is my
everyday assistant.{{I}} Now match each of the persons ( 61. to

universities, by which the intellect, instead of being formed or sacrificed to
some particular of accidental purpose, some specific trade of profession, or
study or science, is disciplined for its own sake, for the perception of its own
proper object, and for its own highest culture, is called Liberal Education; and
though there is no one in whom it is carried as far as is conceivable, or whose
intellect would be a pattern of what intellects should be made, yet there is
scarcely anyone but may gain an idea of what real training is, and at least look

It is only understandable that parents long to see their sons and
daughters with promising futures, as most students today are from single-child
families. However, this eagerness can backfire if parents fail to educate their
children with scientific approaches and concepts. Cases of failure in this
regard survey indicates that due to lack of guidance from sound educational
theory, many parents in this country are at a loss over what to do with. their
children's education. Many put high test scores first in family education, and
know little about the need to build all-round character in their
children.{{B}} Fredrick:{{/B}} When our children's
school life is weighed down with bulging schoolbags and psychological pressure,
how can they lake initiative? They can be emancipated only when schools and
society alike begin doing something about these pressures on them. Parents
should change their ways of thinking. Educating children is a science as well as
an art, and is doomed if the natural laws governing children's healthy physical

about education and psychology, as well as the features, standards and trends of
modern education. In this regard they need the help of educators.{{B}}
Arusa:{{/B}} Public opinion plays a major role in the

填空题Point 1 We are all beginning another great journey. We aren't sure where this one will lead us either, but again I am certain this revolution will touch even more lives and take us all farther. The major changes coming will be in the way people communicate with each other. The benefits and problems arising from this upcoming communications revolution will be much greater than those brought about by the PC revolution. Point 2 There is never a reliable map for unexplored territory, but we can learn important lessons from the creation and evolution of the $120-billion personal-computer industry. The PC--its evolving hardware, business applications, on-line systems, Internet connections, electronic mail, multimedia titles, authoring tools, and game--the foundation for the next revolution. Point 3 This next journey, to the so-called information highway, is the topic of endless newspaper end magazine articles, television and radio broadcasts conferences and widespread speculation. There has been an unbelievable amount of interest in this subject during the last few years, both inside and outside the computer industry. The interest is not confined only to developed countries, and it goes well beyond the large numbers of personal-computer users. Point 4 Thousands of informed and uninformed people are now thinking publicly about the information highway. The amount of misunderstanding about the technology and its possible dangers surprises me. Some people think the highway is simply today's Internet or the delivery of 500 simultaneous chamels of television. Others hope or fear it will create computers as smart as human beings. Those developments will come, but they are not the highway. Point 5 The revolution in communications is just beginning. It will take place over several decades, and will be drives by new "applications" --new tools, often meeting currently unforeseen needs. During the next few years, major decisions will have to be made. It is crucial that a broad set of people--not just technologists or those who happen to be in the computer industry--participate in the debate about how this technology should be shaped, If that can be done, the highway will serve the purpose users want. Then it will gain broad acceptance and become a reality. Now match each of the points (16 to 20) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.A. This upcoming communications revolution has been widely paid attention to.B. We learn from the mistakes of others.C. We are beginning to do something which uncertain, yet outstanding.D. People of all walks of life should be active in this revolution.E. We should be good drawing the experience of others.F. No one would talk much in society if he only knew how often he misunderstanding.G. The most regrettable thing is misunderstanding

five scholars on challenges facing today's single women.For questions 61 to
65,match the name of each scholar to one of the statements (A to G) given
below.Markyour answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
{{B}}Timothy Constance:{{/B}} What the women I
spoke with said was that they want a husband who is independent and dedicated to
his career,but that he doesn't have to make a lot of money. The emphasis was
always on finding a best friend—a soul mate—someone you could tell all your
troubles to and who would be supportive.So it doesn't seem to be the case that
these women were looking for super high—achieving men.
Grise Levison : I think that for women,
as well as for men, the standard for someone who you'd want to spend your life
with depends much more today on emotional intimacy. It takes some trial and
error and a pretty long and dedicated search to identify the kind of person who
is emotionally matching you and who is able to communicate and listen to trouble
talk. Marry Brown : In recent
decades girls have been raised to be more competitive and stronger than they
were in the past.Several women I talked to mentioned that in their life they
felt that their intelligence or intellectual achievement seemed to work against
them in their romantic relationships with men.However, most of the women I
interviewed felt that there were some men"out there"who would be attracted to
smart women.The problem was finding them. Donna
Smith: I think, for the women I talked to, their
ultimate sense of what they want in life includes family and children, but they
aren't willing to think about the fact that they therefore will probably have to
give up some of their own individual pursuits and career goals.I think the
definition of success includes both love and work, and that the challenge is how
to arrange that in a particular order. Elizabedl
Budy : I think that people who have done at least sonle
of the things that are essential for a wise judgment about a partner are more
likely to eventually end up in a stable marriage. It's also true that they're
likely to marry someone who is similar to them in education and earning power,
which means that those marriages are likely to have more moneyin them.
Note:there are two extra statements..
Statements [A] Career success is
in fact not a disadvantage. [B] The ability to choose a right
partner ensures a stable marriage. [C] How to balance
career with family is key to Success. [D] The essential part of
marriage is the union of soul. [E] Finding an emotionally
intimate mate isn't a piece of cake. [F] Career Success ensures
a solid marriage. [G] Social assistance is needed for today's

article in which several people expressed their different opinions on the same
issue. Please match the name of each person to one of the statements given
below. Douglas
Spensor I want the maximum amount of compensation from
the new supermarket owners for both loss of business and inconvenience of
moving. As the most recent of the tenants in these shops, I would like to say I
feel it is very unfair to calculate compensation based on length of time in
residence. I think it should be on the amount of goods sold day by day in shop.
I get more than the tobacco and magazine vendor although they have dealt in this
supermarket for over fifteen years. My goods are more expensive. Besides, my
business is excellent and I have just employed five assistants.
Sony Herry I want the maximum amount of
compensation to be paid to all shop owners. The formula for the compensation can
be worked out in detail later, but I want a deal that will give me the most
amount of money as my business, not very big, is sufficient to support my wife
and 12 year old son. And I have planned to retire soon anyway for I have worked
here for more than 15 years. I hope we will make an agreement among all the shop
owners not to accept employment in the new supermarket unless they pay us enough
compensation. I insist that all my colleagues stick to this agreement.
Maltese Brown I feel I have the
greatest amount of money to lose than any of the other shop owners as I have
recently spent a large amount of money on new valuable stock which I need to
sell. I don't want any compensation at all. I simply want the landlord to be
honorable and to allow us to renew our tenancy agreements. I have made an
agreement with the other shop owners not to accept employment in the new
supermarket if it is offered, unless all the shop owners can work
there. Tom Clouse Something
should be done about this situation. The reputation of the business is most
important. Many people come to my salon regularly only because I am the best
hairdresser here. My business has been very successful over the last five years.
But if I close up my shop during the decoration, I will lose many of my
customers. When considering the compensation, we should take into account of the
factor of reputation. Durante Li
I do not want the market to close. The majority of my customers live near
the market and it would be very difficult for them to travel to the other side
of this district for meat. And the store of my goods is very expensive. I need
fridges, even icehouses. The compensation should cover all the costs, otherwise,
I wouldn't move out. Now match each of the persons with the
appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements A. Capital is the main
factor. B. Residence is most important. C. I
don't want to close up my shop. D. As for me the compensation
is my pension. E. The circle of customers is the critical
point. F. All the shop owners should unite. G.
The contract should be reconsidered.
填空题 Greg Louganis: These were the trials for the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea. Until this dive, I had been ahead. But now, something else was more significant than winning. I might have endangered other divers' lives if I have spilled blood in the pool. For what I knew—that few others knew—was that I was HIV-positive. AIDS forced me to stop diving; I had to quit diving professionally after the Olympics. Margaret Chart: It is reported that almost three million people in developing countries are now receiving drugs for HIV. This is an increase of almost one million people from two thousand and six. Still, the hope was to reach three million by two thousand and five. But antiretroviral therapy, or ART, alone will not solve the problem. For every two persons we manage to provide them with ART, another five persons get infected. So again, we cannot underestimate the power of prevention. Paula Green: The disease robs the body of its natural defenses against infections. Almost seventy-five percent of people receiving HIV drugs are in Africa. The drugs help patients live longer without developing AIDS. An estimated nine million seven hundred thousand people in low and middle income countries were in need of HIV treatment last year. However, by the end of the year, just over thirty percent of them were getting it. Raymond Chow: Price reductions can be a main method to let more people with HIV, including more pregnant women, receive the drugs. Also, delivery systems should be redesigned to better serve individual countries and smaller health centers. And treatments should be simpler than in the past. William Wang: Huge barriers still remain in dealing with the AIDS epidemic. Getting patients to stay on their therapy is difficult. There are still large numbers of people who do not get tested for HIV. And there are many others who get tested too late and die within months. What's more, there is not enough joint treatment of HIV and the related infections that most often kill AIDS patients. And still another problem is the shortage of health care workers in the developing world. Now match each of the items (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement. Note: There are two extra statements. Statements[A] Some HIV-positive patients don't cooperate with doctors.[B] AID patient's blood may be dangerous to other people's lives.[C] People are scared of AIDS.[D] Treatment is more urgent than prevention.[E] Many people can't get HIV drugs because of poverty.[F] More people get HIV treatment, but even more get infected.[G] HIV drugs should be cheaper.
