nuclear energy is either a gigantic disaster waiting to happen or the all-powerful way of the future.it is often believed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without. we live in a consumer society with a huge demand for commercial products of all kinds. besides, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment. such an increase assumes an abundant and cheap energy supply. many people believe nuclear energy provides an endless and economical source of power and that it is therefore fundamental for an industrially developing society. among other advantages is that nuclear power, except for accidents, is clean. a further advantage is that a nuclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and administrative staff. the nuclear reactor represents a great step in our scientific evolution and, whatever the anti-nuclear group says, it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive sources of fuel.however, opponents(people who oppose something)of nuclear energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct danger not only to the environment but also to civil liberties. environmentalists argue in the long run nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent which could bring about the destruction of the human race. furthermore, it is questionable whether nuclear power is a cheap source of energy when everything is considered. there have, for example, been very costly accidents in america, in britain and, of course, in russia. the possibility of increases in the cost of uranium（铀）in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions(设施）could price nuclear power out of the market.in spite of the case against nuclear energy above, nuclear energy programmes are expanding, which assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands. however, it is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue. having weighed up the arguments in both sides, it seems that there are good economic and ecological reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power. 56.whats the writers attitude toward nuclear

in various ways. often, the teachers are praised for a schools success and blamed for its failure. yet, in order for a school to be effective, it must be a place where teaching and learning can easily take place, and that requires the hard work of more than just educators. students must take learning into their own hands and feel as if what they are doing is as important as it actually is. this can only be done with the cooperation of every adult that is involved in the students life. some of these individuals often go unnoticed, yet the role they play in the students lives is immeasurable. in the school, administrative assistants greet students at the start of the day and answer a large quantity of questions. when an assistant remembers a students name or even something special about that student, it communicates to him that he is cared for. the assistant can also give that extra encouragement for a student to make better choices, especially when they are visiting the principals office. meanwhile, though cafeteria workers have a short space of time to interact with students, they can make a big difference as well. beyond meeting nutritional needs, cafeteria workers may also on occasion meet the emotional needs of the students they serve. students benefit from positive interaction with adults, and cafeteria workers may give that extra bit of encouragement that a child needs. custodians (管理员) are usually underappreciated for what they offer to schools. they have to be knowledgeable about everything from cleaning to fixing the most intricate (复杂的) tools. they get to school early in the morning before teachers arrive and lock up late at night after the last student has left from the after-school event. they also make sure teachers are equipped with the necessary items and prepare the rooms so that they are ready for learning. a great custodian also gives that kind word or extra smile to that student who needs it most.67. the purpose of the passage is to _.a. emphasize the role teachers play in a schoolb. highlight the contributions of other staff at school besides teachers.c. tell us who make the greatest contributions to a schoold. explain what contributes to the success of a student68. if an assistant remembers a students name, the student will feel that _. a. he is paid particular attention to b. he is special c. he has done something wrong d. he has made progress in study 69. which of the following is true about cafeteria workers? a. its enough for them to cook for the students. b. its hard for them to interact with the students. c. they have the most interaction with students at school.d. they can also meet the emotional needs of the students. 70. how does the author feel about the staff mentioned in the text? a. disappointed. b. dissatisfied. c. appreciative. d. doubtful.【参考答案】67-70badc阅读理解-b(2013苏锡常镇二调，b)i began writing poems fifteen years ago while i was in college. one day i was in the library, working on a term paper, when i came across a book of contemporary poetry. i dont remember the title of the book or any of the titles of the poems except one：“frankensteins daughter.” the poem was wild, almost rude, and nothing like the rhymeandmeter poetry i had read in high school. i had always thought that poetry was flowery writing about sunsets and walks on the beach, but that library book contained direct and sometimes shocking poetry about dogs, junked cars, rundown houses, and tvs. i checked the book out, curious to read more.soon afterward, i started filling a notebook with my own poems. at first i was scared, partly because my poetry teacher, to whom this book is written for, was a serious and strict man who could see the errors in my poems. also, i realized the seriousness of my devotion. i gave up geography to study poetry, which a good many friends said offered no future. i ignored them because i liked working with words, using them to reconstruct the past, which has always been a source of poetry for me.when i first studied poetry, i was singleminded. i woke to poetry and went to bed with poetry. i memorized poems, read english poets because i was told they would help shape my poems, and read classical chinese poetry because i was told that it would add clarity to my work. but i was most taken by the spanish and latin american poets, particularly pablo neruda. my favorites of his were the odeslong, shortlined poems celebrating common things like tomatoes, socks and scissors. i felt joyful when i read these odes, and when i began to write my own poems, i tried to remain faithful to the common things of my childhooddogs, alleys (小巷), my baseball mitt (手套) and the fruit of the valley, especially the orange. i wanted to give these things life, to write so well that my poems would express their beauty.i also admired our own countrys poetry. i saw that our poets often wrote about places where they grew up or places that impressed them deeply. james wright wrote about ohio and west virginia, philip levine about detroit, gary snyder about the sierra nevadas and about japan, where for years he studied zen buddhism (禅宗佛教). i decided to write about the san joaquin valley, where my hometown, fresno, is located. some of my poems are absolute observations and images of naturethe orange yards, the kings river, the sequoias (红杉). i fell in love with the valley, both its ugliness and its beauty, and quietly wrote poems about it to share with others.文章大意：这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者写诗的经历。4what does the passage mainly talk about?athe authors experiences with
