my sixth-grader daughter, elizabeth, was forced to put up with science. her education, week after week, contained mindless memorization of big words like “batholith” and “saprophyte”. she learned by heart the achievements of famous scientists who did things like “improved nuclear fusion (核聚变)”. actually, she hasnt the least idea of what nuclear fusion means. elizabeth did very well (shes good at memorizing things). and now she hates science. my eighth-grader son, ben, also suffered from science education. week after week he had to perform lab experiments with answers already known. ben figured out how to guess the right answers, so he got good grades. now he hates science, too. science can provide an exciting way to develop childrens curiosity. science education should teach ways to ask questions and seek answers. but my children got the mistaken idea in school that science is difficult, dull and has no relation to their everyday interests. as a physicist, i am saddened and angered to see “the great science turnoff”. i know that science is important in our lives. yet studies prove that our schools are turning out millions of graduates who know almost nothing about and have almost no interest in science. whats gone wrong? who is to blame?21. we learn from paragraph 1 that _.a. the writer was proud of elizabeth and benb. neither elizabeth nor ben likes sciencec. elizabeth learned much about nuclear fusiond. ben was good at trying new ideas in lab experiments22. the writer thinks that in science education we should first _.a. get students interested in the subjectb. answer students questions in delightful waysc. smooth out difficulties in lab experimentsd. explain the special terms clearly23. by writing the text, the author questions _.a. the difficulty level of the science texts b. the way science is taught in schoolc. the achievements of famous scientists d. students poor records in science classes24. why is the author angry to see “the great science turnoff”?a. because he is a chemist.b. because he has two children at school.c. because schools nowadays do no work. d. because he thinks highly of science in our lives. bfor centuries, the only form of written correspondence（通信）was the letter. letters were, and are, sent by some form of postal service, the history of which goes back a long way. indeed, the egyptians began sending letters from about 2000 bc, as did the chinese a thousand years later. of course, modern postal services now are much more developed and faster, depending as they do on cars and planes for delivery. yet they are still too slow for some people to send urgent documents（紧急文件）and letters. the invention of the fax（传真）machine increased the speed of delivering documents even more. when you send a fax, you are sending a copy of a piece of correspondence to someone by telephone service. it was not until the early 1980s that such a service was developed enough for businesses to be able to fax documents to each other. the fax service is still very much in use when copies of documents require to be sent, but, as a way of fast correspondence, it has been largely taken the place of by email, email is used to describe messages sent form one computer user to another. there are advantages and disadvantages with emails. if you send someone an email, then he will receive it extremely quickly. normal postal services are rather slow as far as speed of delivery is concerned.however, if you write something by email, which you might later regret, and send it immediately, there is no chance for second thoughts. at least, if you are posting a letter you have to address and seal（封）the envelope and take it to the post box. there is plenty of time to change your mind. the message is think before you email!25. we can learn from the text that_.a. the postal service has over the years become slower b. email is less popular than the fax servicec. the postal service has over the years become fasterd. the fax service has a history as long as the postal service does26. it can be inferred from the text that_.a. the fax machine was invented after the 1980sb. letters have been used in china for about 1,000 yearsc. the fax service had been fully developed by the 1980sd. letters have been used in egypt for about 2,000 years27. in the last paragraph, the writer mentions “think before you email” to show that _.a. youd better not send your email in a hurryb. you may regret if you dont seal your envelopec. you may regret before you send something by emaild. you need plenty of time to send an email28. the text mainly deals with _.a. the invention of fax machines b. the advantage of fax machinesc. the advantage of emails d. the progress in correspondenceclondon thursday july 26

your attention on the text, especially when it is both interesting and difficult.when youre at home, you can usually create effective conditions for reading. you might want to choose a particular place a desk or table, for example where you always read. make sure the place you choose is well lighted, and sit in a chair that requires you to sit straight. reading in a chair thats too soft and comfortable is likely to make you sleepy! keep your active reading tools（pens, markers, notebooks or paper）and a dictionary close at hand.before you sit down for a reading period, try to reduce all possible interruptions. turn off your phone, the television, and the radio. tell your family members or roommates that youll be busy for a while. if necessary, put a “do not disturb” sign on your door! the more interruptions you must deal with while you read, the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand. 33. the author believes that the right reading environment _.a. helps
