nurses move to the more developed nations for better pay, better working conditions and better chances for career development. for example, nearly 2,000 nurses left the caribbean between 2002 and 2006.the caribbean nations currently have about 1 nurse for every 1,000 people. the ratio(比例) of nurses to population is about 10 times higher in the united states and countries in the european union(eu). now, more than 21,000 nurses who trained in the caribbean are working in the united states, canada and britain.gaetan lafortune is an official of the organization for economic cooperation and development(o.e.c.d) in paris. he says the nurses shortage also affects industrialized countries. he says, “there is concern in most o.e.c.d.countries that the number of nurses is too small to meet the demand. and what is more worrying is that their concern is sort of growing.” mr lafortune says a large number of nurses are expected to retire within the next 10 years. at the same time, the health care needs of aging populations are expected to grow, intensifying the shortage of nurses.gaetan lafortune said, “in the u.s., for instance, some researchers have found that there may be a shortage of close to a million nurses by 2020.” the united states is 1 of the 21 countries in the o.c.e.d. gaetan lafortune says in the recent years many of the countries increased their efforts to hire foreign nurses. as a result of that, o.e.c.d. countries were mainly exporting their shortage problem to countries that may have an even greater need for these nurses.1what will be the main causes of the global nurses shortage in the next 10 years?a. the demand for nurses will decrease. b. many nurses will be too old to work.c. many rich countries will hire more foreign nurses. d. nurses are often looked down upon.e. aging populations will increase rapidlya. a and bb. b and cc. b and ed. c and d2the underlined word “intensify” in para. 3 means “_”.a. strengthenb. neglect c. reduced. cause3we know from this text that america and the eu countries _.a. refuse to offer equal pay to foreign nursesb. have at least one nurse out of 100 peoplec. dont like to train nurses of their own countriesd. have more serious nursing problems than the caribbean nations4what does the text mainly tell us?a. nursing is no longer a worthwhile profession in most countries.b. the different attitudes towards nursing in different countries.c. nurses shortage will result in serious consequences.d. the health care industry needs more nurses.bbooks which give instructions on how to do things are very popular in the united states today. thousands of these “how to” books are available; in fact, there are about four thousand books with titles that begin with the words “how to”. one book may tell you how to earn more money, another may tell you how to save or spend it, and another may explain how to give your money away. many “how to” books give advice on careers (职业). they tell you how to choose a career and how to succeed at it. if you fail, however, you can buy a book called “how to turn failure into success”. if you would like to become very rich, you can buy the book “how to make a million”. if you never make any money at all, you may need a book called “how to live on nothing?”. one of the most popular types of books is one that helps you with personal problems. if you want to have a better love of life, you can read “how to succeed at love every minute of your life.?”. if you are tired of books on happiness, you may prefer a book called “how to make yourself miserable?”. many of these books help people use their time better. some people want books which will give them useful information about sports, hobbies, and travel. other people use their free time to make repairs and improvements on their homes. they prefer books which give step by step instruction on how to repair things like plumbing (卫生管道工程) and electrical wiring, or on how to redecorate (重新装饰) or enlarge a house. why have “how to” books become so popular? probably because life has become so complex. today people have far more free time to use, more choices to make, and more problems to solve. “how to” books help people deal with modern life. 1. these “how to” books are written to_. a. tell people on how to love their daily life b. earn moneyfor the companies to survive in the competition

“how to make yourself miserable?” cin an age dominated （控制的） by new media and the internet, there are so many alternative ways of learninggone are the days when, if we couldnt make it into a classroom, the only real option was to pick up a book, or when audio materials consisted of bad quality cassettes or sporadic（时有时无的） radio and tv programmeswith the appearance of broadband access to the web, we have a whole new learning domain （统领） at our fingertipssophisticated learning materials in the form of text or high-quality audio are now available at the touch of a button, and tests and assignments can be submitted （进行） and marked onlinequestions and learning, studying away from the classroom has never seemed easieryet many teachers would argue that face-to-face contact between teachers and students is an essential part of the language learning experienceenter the concept of blended （融合的） learning, an approach to education which seeks to combine the best of new technology and actual human contactadvocates of blended learning argue that an approach to study which combines the benefits of new technology with the best aspects of face-to-face （often abbreviated to f2f） teaching, will achieve better resultsfor example, there are some aspects of study, like practical sessions, dealing with more subjective questions, or meeting the needs of an individual student, which require face-to-face human interaction, whereas the more mechanical aspects of learning, such as answers to clear-cut questions, can be managed simply and effectively in a remote environment using new technologyblended learning approaches have proven especially appropriate in language learningfor example, in an elt （english language teaching ） environment, a simple scenario （剧情概要） might be a classroom session where a teacher asks a group of students to use a wiki to create a text students then go away and compose and edit the text remotelyduring the next f2f session, the teacher express his opinion about their work1what is the main idea of this passage?ablended learning is an effective learning approachbmore and more people will use internet-based learning materials,cthere are so many different ways of learning for people to choose in todays worlddblended learning methods have proven to be effective except in language learning2which of the following aspects of study doesnt require face-to-face interaction between teachers and students?apractical sessionsbtackling the needs of an individual studentcdealing with more subjective questionsdproviding answers to clear-cut questions3it can be inferred from the passage that _athe radio and tv in the past were of poor qualitybpeople do not get audio materials through cassettes nowadayscit was not convenient for people to leam outside a classroom in the pastdit was difficult to find a classroom with good learning conditions in the old days4which of the following can be best describe the writers attitude towards blended learning?acritical bobjective （客观的） csupportive dneutral （中立的） dsome people believe that a robin hood is at work, others that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. but the donator who started sending envelopes with cash to deserving causes，accompanied by an article from the local paper, has made a northern german city believe in fairytales (童话）the first envelope was sent to a victim support group. it contained 10,000 with a cutting from the braunschtveiger zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag； similar plain white anonymous (匿名）envelopes, each containing 10,000, then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.the envelopes keep coming, and so far at least 190,000 has been distributed. last month, one of them was sent to the newspapers own office. it came after a story it published about tom, a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. the receptionist at the braunschweiger zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of 500 inside , with a copy of the article. the name of the family was underlined.i was driving when i heard the news,” claudia neumann, the boys mother, told derspiegel magazine. “i had to park on the side of the road； i was speechless. ”the money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair-accessible .and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.“for someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing, mrs. neumann said. her family wonder whether the donator is a robin hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.henning noske, the editor of the braunschweiger zeitung, said： “maybe it is an old person who is about to die. we just do not know. ” however, he has told his reporters not to look for the citys hero, for fear that discovery may stop the donations.1the braunschweiger zeitung is the name of
