All that _31_ one day, when Mrs. Kumar asked us to write “An autobiography of a pencil”.For some _32_ reason, my take on the autobiography was unusually poetic. Words seemed to _33_ without any effort. For me, it was just another _34_ and I handed it in, just pleased to have completed it, not particularly _35_ of the work.Mrs. Kumar reacted very differently, _36_. Maybe she was just being _37_ in an effort to encourage a student, maybe she really liked the work or perhaps she saw the _38_ in a teenager. Whatever her reasons, she read it out to the class as a(n)_39_ of “a fine specimen (样本) of writing”.If that had been the end of it, life would have _40_ very differently for me.One day a few years later, I went back to the campus where I spent my childhood. I was walking through the _41_ corridors when I passed by Mrs. Kumar, still teaching her class. She looked up as I passed and I _42_, not wanting to interrupt.Suddenly, she went out and invited me into her class. “This girl is one of the best _43_ this school has seen,” she said. “She wrote a wonderful autobiography of a pencil a few years ago. I hope some of you can learn to write like her.”Even after all these years, I can _44_ myself being led into that classroom. _45_ glows (洋溢) on my face whenever I tell someone this incident. It was fantastic to experience that wave of _46_ from a teacher I admired.I am sure I was not the only student whose school essays and assignments Mrs. Kumar remembered. It is likely that she made an effort to make each one of us feel _47_. However, I had never had anybody praise my writing before that. It _48_ me to write more, do better in an effort to prove to her that “Look! Your _49_ in me is justified. I am good, because you believe I am.”Today, I am a successful writer. If it was not for Mrs. Kumar, my _50_ would just have been another tool to use.

Service animalsBYou dont exactly have to jump on the next plane in order to see Venice while its still around, but scientists are warning that only a miracle - or more advanced engineering than exists today - can save one of the worlds most fabled (神话般的) cities of art and architecture, especially in view of global warming and the possibilities of ocean levels rising 6 meters.The most recent reports indicate that Venice is sinking faster than had been predicted. The gloomiest forecast is that the waters of the Adriatic Sea could destroy Venice within this century, especially if global warming causes waters to rise even faster.What a catastrophe that would be. Surely there is no more absurd monument to the foolishness of mankind than Venice, a fantasy city on the sea.Once you arrive and are amazed by all the architectural wonders and riches of Venice, its vivid colors of sienna, Roman old, and ruby peach, you may think that reports of tide damage are overblown. But once you experience your first flood and see for yourself how close the sea is to sweeping over Venice, youll most likely change your mind. Pollution, uncontrolled tides (潮水), and just plain old age are eating away daily the treasures of this cherished city of art. As the debate rages about how to save Venice, with no real solution in sight, the waters just keep rising.Why did those insane (神志不清的) Venetians build on such swampy islands and not on dry land, of which there was plenty centuries ago?In an effort to flee the barbarians (野蛮人), Venetians left dry dock and drifted out to a group of low islands in the lagoon (泻湖). For a long time, Venice did avoid foreign armies intent on invading, burning, and plundering. Eventually, Napoleon and his forces arrived; however, they were never to destroy Venice.Foreign visitors have conquered Venice in ways most invading armies did not. Some 10 million people visit Venice every year - and thats only counting the visitors who actually spend the night. Since Venice is known as an expensive city and has only a limited number of accommodations, there are countless day-trippers rushing in every day, all summer long.54.The passage covers the following aspects about Venice EXCEPT _.A. Geography.B. History.C. Traffic.D. Culture.55.Which of the following can be the greatest threat to Venice?A. Constant global warming.B. Unendurable crowds of visitors.C. Unbearable accommodation prices.D. Foreign countries powerful invasion.56.What can we infer about Venice from this passage?A. It will eventually be destroyed by waters of the Adriatic Sea.B. It has been a prosperous and artistic city throughout the history.C. Foreign visitors have brought more damage to it than foreign armies have.D. The ancient Venetians were foolish enough to build it in such a place.57.By writing this passage, the author actually means to _.A. advise tourists to remove Venice from their tour listsB. introduce to tourists some unique information about VeniceC. warn tourists of the possible dangers when visiting VeniceD. appeal to tourists to protect Venice by reducing their visitsCHow university students do their studies has changed greatly in recent years with the growth in online learning. Instead of physically attending lectures or going to the library, they can download lesson plans and lectures notes to their laptop, have a Skype conversation with a lecturer and hand in work online. With more universities now offering e-learning and MOOCs (massive open online courses), is there now a need for them to still have classrooms and a campus? Mark Taylor, from the University of Warwick, said he hoped it would help attract more students to come to study at the university rather than as a direct replacement for learning on campus. He said: There is a branding (品牌宣传) to it, getting people worldwide to realize the quality of work and teaching that is available in our university, and encouraging students to come and study with us more formally. Lecturer Jonathan Shaw said: “The idea that these courses are free doesnt mean students dont want to come to university. People say education in the Internet Era, just like music were at the Napster moment, the MP3 type revolution, many years ago and fundamentally these MOOCs will change what education is about. But the music industry doesnt die, its become something different, and I think education will naturally face that too-people still go to pop concerts because they want the physical experience.” Adrian Sym, 45, who works in Germany, did an online MA in international policy and diplomacy while living in Nepal (尼泊尔). “I never set foot in the university,” he said. “It was really the only choice open to me because I was overseas but to be honest I think I wouldve done the same thing had I been in the UK. One reason is that if youre a mature student or working, real life doesnt leave room for attending a university.” Dr. Steve Wyn Williams, who is from Staffordshire University, said “academic organizations will always want to invest in buildings and facilities as well as technology.”And he added: “The phase for universities has lasted since the 14th Century where a campus is important. The campus is a place where learning occurs and here you can hear students talking about their studies and academic work as well as what they did last night. I dont think it can be either bricks or online clicks, it might change more towards the clicks because of technology and given the pressure on students and finances (资金), but the bricks are always going to be here, the challenge for universities is how you work that together.” 58.Who showed the LEAST support for attending lectures on campus?A. Mark Taylor. B. Jonathan Shaw. C. Adrian Sym. D. Steve Wyn Williams.59.Jonathan Shaw intends to prove by the example of music industry that _.A. traditional university education are faced with the severest challenges everB. traditional university education is far from dying regardless of the existence of e-learningC. music industry is declining sharply because of the MP3 type revolutionD. there will be still more concerts because more people will go to live performances60.According to Dr. Steve W
