    Tens of thousands of Chinese have joined a debate (辩论) on whether students should be separated into science（理科） and liberal arts（文科）classes in high school, a practice that allows them to stay competitive in college entrance exam by choosing preferred subjects. The debate came after the Ministry of Education began to ask for opinions from the public on Friday on whether it was necessary and possible to stop the dividing system, which has been accepted for decades.
    In a survey started by www. qq. com, more than 260 000 people cast their votes, with 54 percent of those voted for the abolishment (废除)and 40 percent against.
    A netizen from Chengdu said: “Sciences can activate the mind, while arts could strengthen their learning ability.”
    But some people disagreed with him. A netizen nicknamed “gentle scholar” said the students would have more burden if they have more subjects to study. “You don’t even know how difficult the courses are. I suggest a survey among students.”
    “Abolish the current system of division? We have to study nine subjects? Finally we will study everything and have learnt little,” wrote another netizen.
    Li Yanling, an education expert in Beijing, called on education authorities to consider students’ school burden.
    Chinese students are required to choose either arts or science subjects after ten years’ education, which include six years in primary school, three years in junior high school and one year in senior high school.
    Besides the Chinese language, mathematics and English, which are must for everyone, science students are required to take physics, biology and chemistry, while arts students study politics, history and geography.
    小题1:Choosing preferred subjects can help students __________.
    A．have more chance to look for jobs in future
    B．find a good job after graduation
    C．have more advantages to enter a university
    D．show interest in daily life
    小题2:Netizen nicknamed “gentle scholar” __________.
    A．is for the abolishmentB．is against the abolishment
    C．doesn’t care the abolishmentD．prefers students to learn more
    小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT true?           .
    A．The debate is on whether the students should choose science or liberal arts classes in high school
    B．More people on the Internet are for the abolishment
    C．The students who are against the abolishment think abolishing the current system of division will heavy their burden.
    D．Science students are required to take physics, biology and chemistry besides

    Besides calling 911, here is what to do in some life-threatening emergencies when no one is around to help.
    Lost in the wilderness
    First, you’ve got to acknowledge you're in trouble. Stay where you can be seen, clearly and remember to rest. Keeping a sense of humor helps too -- it reduces strum and helps creative thinking. In a wide open area, make a colorful cress out of rocks to show your present position.
    Choking
    Aim to hit the top of the chair against your stomach, in the soft part below the bony upside-down V of the ribs (肋骨). Make a sudden push against the chair. If you still can’t breathe after six tries, call 911, even if you can’t talk. Write the word “choking” somewhere nearby, and leave the line open until help arrives.
    Severe bleeding
    Use your hand or clean cotton, or paper towels, or a scarf, or any cloth you can find, and push down on the wound until the bleeding stops. But if you put a band around your leg tightly, you’re going to close the vessels (血管) to the entire leg. In this way, you could loose foot.
    Bear attack
    If yon surprise a bear, don't run away. That invites an attack. Instead, stand up and back away slowly, without looking the bear in the eyes. If it does charge (猛冲) at you, stick out your chest, raise your arms, and spread your legs. Shout at the bear, to frighten it. If it's going to attack, lie facedown, with your hands held firmly behind your neck. Play dead until you're sure the bear is gone.
    1. When you see a colorful cross made of rocks in the wilderness, you know ______.
    A. someone is bleeding                  B. someone is choking
    C. someone is lost                      D. someone is attacked by a bear
    2. If you are still choking after six tries, you should ______.
    A. keep a sense of humor                 B. call 911 and leave the line open
    C. use your hand our clean cotton         D. lie down with your hands behind your neck
    3. Don't tie around your bleeding leg tightly, or you could ______.
    A. stop bleeding  B. reduce stress   C. loose your foot      D. cause breathlessness
    4. The passage is mainly teaching us how to ______.
    A. survive the emergencies                      B. avoid a bear attack.  
    C. deal with a choke                         D. find our way

    Everyone makes mistakes in life, but for whales and dolphins, the “mistake” of landing on the shore costs the highest price---their lives.
    People living along the coast of Australia and New Zealand have been shocked and saddened by the number of whales and dolphins that they have found on their beaches recently. Since November 28th, 96 whales and dolphins have died in Australia and 53 whales died in New Zealand. Although 20 whales were saved, some of these were not expected to live, as they were too weak to swim with the others back to sea.
    Bob Brown, leader of Australia’s Green party, said the mass beaching was caused by the recent “sound bombing” of the ocean floor between the two countries. This is a method of testing for oil and gas reserves (储藏量).
    But mass beaching of whales has long puzzled scientists. Typically most members of the stranded (搁浅) group will appear to be perfectly healthy. “Some researchers believe that close relationship within the group causes the problem, if one gets into trouble, the others will not leave” said Shery Gibney, a leading biologist in New Zealand. “Some will come in and try and assist it; if they get trapped on the beach, then more will come.”
    Another common theory is that the whales’ navigation (导航) system are thought to break down in some way. It has been said that whales follow electromagnetic (电磁的) patterns in the sea-bed. The whales can get confused because these patterns sometimes change. That would be a bit like a new roundabout (环状交叉路) being built on a road you were used to driving on. You might be confused for a minute when you come to it for the first time, and you might even take a wrong turning before getting back on your route.
    A different idea is that when whales chase fish for food they end up in shallow waters because they are not paying attention to where they are going.
    And yet, from time to time a group will swim on purpose into shallow waters and end up on the beach, where they die. If returned to the sea, some whales often show great determination in restraining themselves.
    小题1:________ whales and dolphins would probably die in this mass beaching along the coast of Australia and New Zealand.
    A．Less than 100B．Less than 150C．More than 150D．149
    小题2:Which of the following can be used to explain the term “sound bombing”?
    A．The terrible sound that is caused in the war between two countries.
    B．Human activities that aim to explore the ocean floor.
    C．The loud sound that whales and dolphins make.
    D．The earthquakes that happen on the ocean floor.
    小题3:Which of the following couldn’t probably lead to the mass beaching of whales?
    A．A change in the electromagnetic patterns that whales follow.
    B．New roundabout being built on a road.
    C．Their full attention to the search for food.
    D．Exploiting natural resources in oceans.
    小题4:The passage is mainly about _______.
    A．that whales and dolphins may make mistakes as well as human beings
    B．how scientists have found the reasons for the mass beaching of whales
    C．how human beings make use of the ocean resources
    D．why the mass beaching of whales happens

    There is a boy in my gym class (I’ll call him Bill) who has unbearably yellow teeth that almost make everyone feel unpleasant. Recently another boy told Bill that he should “go Ajax” his teeth. Bill was crushed. Had the other boy been thinking, he would have realized that there is a better way to handle such a situation. He could have dealt with it with tact. He could have showed this hurtful truth in a more careful, sensitive way—that’s “tact”.
    If a person isn’t sensitive to another’s feelings, there is no way he or she can be tactful. Yesterday, my 5-year-old brother proudly announced that he had cleaned the screen on our television set. Unfortunately, he used furniture polish(亮光油), which produced an oily film on the television screen. My mother smiled and thanked him for his efforts—and then showed how to clean the screen properly. Her sensitivity enables my brother to keep his self-respect. Yet, sensitivity alone does not make tact.
    “Tactfulness” also requires “truthfulness”. Doctors, for example must be truthful. If a patient has just been disabled in an accident, a tactful doctor will tell the truth—but express it with sensitivity. The doctor may try to give the patient hope by telling them curing techniques under study or about advanced equipment now available. Doctors must use tact with patients relatives as well. Instead of bluntly saying, “Your husband is disabled,” a doctor might say, “I’m sorry, but your husband has lost feeling in his legs and…”
    Tact should not be confused with trickery. Trickery occurs when a nurse is about to give a patient an injection and says, “This won’t hurt a bit.” Instead of trickery, the nurse might guarantee the patient that the discomfort of the injection is a small thing compared to the benefits of it. It would also be thoughtful for the nurse to tell the patients about some of these benefits.
    Tact is a wonderful skill to have, and tactful people are usually admired and respected. Without tact our society would become an intolerable place to live in.
    小题1:When told he should “go Ajax” his teeth, Bill probably felt ________________.
    A．surprisedB．cheated
    C．regretfulD．painful
    小题2:According to the author, his mother’s praise for the brother is _______________.
    A．both sensitive and tactfulB．sensitive but not tactful enough
    C．truthful but not tactfulD．sensitive but trickish
    小题3:The fourth paragraph mainly talks about __________________.
    A．how to comfort the patients
    B．how to use trickery carefully
    C．differences between trickery and promises
    D．another feature of tact
    小题4:Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (The numbers stand for the paragraphs)

    The campaign is over. The celebrations have ended. And the work for US president-elect Barack Obama has begun.
    The 47-year-old politician rose to the highest post because of his stand against the war in Iraq and his plans to fix a weak economy. But what will the first 47-year-old African-American president do for race relations.
    Obama’s victory appears to have given blacks and other minorities a true national role model. For years, many looked to athletes and musicians for inspiration. As Darius Turner, an African-American high school student in Los Angeles, told the Los Angeles Times.“Kobe( the basketball player) doesn’t have to be everybody’s role model anymore.”
    Recent polls also suggest that Obama’s victory has given Americans new optimism about race relations. For example, a USA Today poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe relations between blacks and whites“will finally be worked out”. This is the most hopeful response since the question was first asked during the civil rights revolution in 1963.
    However, it’s still too early to tell whether Obama’s presidency will begin to solve many of the social problems facing low-income black communities.
    Although blacks make up only 13 percent of the US population, 55 percent of all prisoners are African-American. Such numbers can be blamed on any number of factors on America’s racist past, a failure of government policy and the collapse of the family unit in black communities.
    It is unlikely that Obama will be able to reverse（扭转）such trends overnight. However, Bill Bank, an expert of African-American Studies, say that eventually young blacks need to find role models in their own communities.“That’s not Martin Luther King, and not Barack Obama,”he told the Los Angeles Times, “It’s actually the people closest to them. Barack only has so much influence.”
    In the opinion of black British politician Trevor Phillips, Obama’s rise will contribute more to multiculturalism than to race relations in the US.
    52: For years, before Obama was elected president of the US,      .
    A. Kobe was the only role model for all the blacks
    B. blacks could only find role models on the basketball court
    C. minorities in America couldn’t find role models in their real life
    D. American blacks had no role model who was successful in political area
    53. According to Bill Bank,      .
    A. Obama is not the proper role model for African-Americans
    B. young blacks should not be so much influenced by Obama
    C. blacks should find other role models because Obama is far from their reality
    D. it’s better for young blacks to find role models in those who are close to them
    54. What do you think the author is probably going to talk about in the next paragraph?
    A. In what ways Obama will contribute to racial relations in the US.
    B. How Obama will influence Americans as a national role model.
    C. How Obama will contribute to multiculturalism in the US.
    D. How to choose a role model in his community as a young black.
    55.What would be the best title for this passage?
    A. The First African-American President
    B. America’s New Role Model
    C. Obama—a Successful Black
    D. Choosing a Right Role Model

    第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
    The National Outline for Medium and Long Term Education Reform and Development (2010 - 20) was released over the weekend. Here are some of the highlights:
    Four – percent effort
    The government says spending on education will be 4 percent of GDP by 2012. globally, average spending on education is about 4.5% of GDP. China spend 3,33% in 2008. according to Hu Angang, of Tsinghua University’s Center for China Studies, even if China reaches that goal, it will only rank about 100 th out of 188 countries.
    Administrative rank
    Administrative rankings for school leaders are to be phased out to tackle the bureaucracy (官僚机构) problem that limits educational development, according to Cheng Fangping, of the national Institute for Educational Research. Areas like teaching programs, scientific research, and technological development will be more independent.
    Vocational Education
    The system will be free of charge. According to Wu Yan, of Beijing Institute of Educational Sciences, this will be key to developing China’s production capacity and will improve poor people’s lives dramatically.
    Entering college
    Universities could eventually have the freedom to choose some of their own high school applicants. Normally, students are accepted based on the uniform national exam scores. Also, students who agree to go to a remote area could be admitted to university under special circumstances. The most likely change could come on the college entrance English test, which might be modeled on the IELTS or TOEFL. Students will be able to take it several times and pick their best score.
    56．Which of the following is true in the future according to the passage?
    A．Applicants could take the IELTS or TOEFL instead of the college entrance English test.
    B．Colleges will be given the right to choose all of their own applicants.
    C．Vocational education will be party free to make people’s lives better.
    D．Applicants could sit for the college entrance English test more than once.
    57．Which of the following words is closest in meaning to “uniform” in the last paragraph?
    A．formal      B．official     C．same D．united
    58．We can learn from the passage even though our country spends 4% of GDP on education in 2012, ________.
    A．there will still be 188 countries ahead of China in this aspect
    B．China will certainly overtake the global average spending on education
    C．there might be nearly 100 countries ahead of China in this aspect
    D．China will be the 100 th country to spend over the global average on education
    59．From the third paragraph, we can infer that________.
    A．school leaders will have more freedom to manage the school
    B．schools will have more limits from the government
    C．School administrative rankings are to be strengthened to solve the bureaucracy problem
    D．schools and research centers will be fully independent from the government

    B
    Memories of highly charged events, like the London bombings of the 7th July 2005, can be inaccurate and should not be relied on in court, according to a study in Britain. People can create false memories, bringing problems for police investigations.
    The simultaneous (同时) bombings of three underground trains and a double－decker bus in London some years ago are imprinted on the minds of many people in Britain.
    But our memories of the attacks are unreliable, according to a study from Portsmouth University. Forty percent of British students questioned about the events remembered seeing a film recorded by a CCTV(闭路监控) camera that shows a particular event of the bus bomb——footage(片段) which never existed. A further 28% claimed to have seen a non－existent computerized reconstruction.
    Some even recalled specific details of the attack, which none of them witnessed. "The bus had just stopped to let people off when two women and a man got on," said one. "He placed a hag by his side, the woman sat down and as the bus left, there was an explosion. There was a leg on the floor." Another described how the bus had stepped at a traffic light when there was a bright light, an explosion and the roof of the bus was blown off by the power of the explosion.
    "Memories are not like videotape you can return to the beginning and replay for perfect recall," said lead researcher James Ost. "Because of this, they are not reliable enough to form the basis of legal decisions." He believes people who are more creative might be more inclined to make these kinds of errors.
    60．According to the passage, when people are strongly affected by an event______.
    A．all they say about the event is not true
    B．they couldn't remember anything
    C．they couldn't go on the court to be witnesses
    D．they couldn't make any errors on what they see about the event
    61．The third paragraph______.
    A．tells us what some people saw about the attack
    B．shows that some people did create some false memories
    C．shows that the London bombing was indeed a terrorist attack
    D．shows that some people could remember details of an event
    62．The underlined word "inclined" in the last paragraph is closest to the meaning of______.
    A．careful                          B．likely                              C．serious                          D．curious
    63．What is mainly discussed in the passage?
    A．How our memories work.                                      B．False memories.
    C．How to avoid false memories.                              D．What can be done to memories.
