，as it holds all of my writing and thoughts .despite this love of technology ,i know that there are times when i need to move away from these devices（设备） and truly communicate with others.on occasion, i teach a course called history matters for a group of higher education managers. my goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas .because i want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom ,i have a rule no laptop ,ipads ,phones ,etc .when students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy .most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology . theres a bit of truth to that. some students assume that i am anti-technology . theres no truth in that at all . i love technology and try to keep up with it so i can relate to my students.the real reason why i ask students to leave technology at the door is that i think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas . i want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. i want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course the material and the class discussion .ive been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that i create .students realize that with deep conversation and challenge , they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom .im not saying that i wont ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until i hear a really good reason for the change ,im sticking to my plan. a few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.41.some of the students in the history class were unhappy with_a. the course material b. others misuse of technology c. discussion topics d. the authors class regulations 42.the underlined word “engage ”in para.4 probably means _a. explore b. accept c. change d. reject 43.according to the author ,the use of technology in the classroom may _a. keep students from doing independent thinking b. encourage students to have in-depth conversationsc. help students to better understand complex themes d. affect students concentration on course evaluation44.it can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author _a. is quite stubborn b. will give up teaching history c. will change his teaching plan soon d. values technology-free dialogues in his class b when first entered ,vanak restaurant does not look like much of a restaurant, but once the pleasant smells of kabob(烤羊肉串）hit the senses ,you are incapable of calling it anything less.owned by a local couple, this persian restaurant has an inviting, homelike atmosphere that many restaurants lack.the space is small with only a few dining tables and nearly no decoration, but the environment is truly charming.lying in a hardly noticeable street corner, the restaurant still attracts all customers, especially those experienced in the delights of middle eastern cooking.a common sight is that of old persian men sitting in the corner talking loudly about world topics, watching news events on tv, drinking a black tea known as persian chai, an reading local persian newspapers all the while trying to finish off their plate piled with food.the variety of food at the restaurant is limited, but the amount of each dish is fairly large. most of the meals can serve two people and are under $10,so not only is it affordable but practical as well.the food, especially appeals to health-conscious eaters because each dish is very healthy, made with limited fat and oil and served straight off the grill （烤肉架）.the main dish that the restaurant is popular for is its kabobs, which are different style of grilled meat.one delicious and extremely healthy dish is the joojeh kabob, which is made of grilled chicken pieces served with cither rice or bread. another great kabob is the chelo kabob, kabob consisting of grilled beef.although the restaurant is small, the atmosphere and the food is delicious. it is a place that should not be overlooked.45. when first entering the restaurant, one can find that it a. is splendidly decorated b. has pleasant smells of kabobsc. is crowded with dining tables d. looks like a common restaurant46. what activity is also mentioned apart from dining in the restaurant?a. watching news events on tv b. drinking a kind of black coffeec. reading local english newspapers d. discussing world topics in low voices47. the food of the restaurant a .is served in small amounts b. is rather expensivec. is rich in variety d. is very health48. what is the dish joojeh kabob mainly made of?a. rice. b. chicken c. bread d. beef49. it can be inferred from the passage that the restaurant .a. occupies a large space b. owns a favorable locationc. is popular for its special food d. has a quiet environment inside c science cant explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer. any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. for some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. a 2002 study by karen allen of the state university of new york measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. people with pets did it best. those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. with pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. it seems people feel more relaxed (放松)around pets, says allen, who thinks it may be because pets dont judge. a study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. researchers at northwestern memorial hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. on average, people lost about i1 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. dog owners didnt lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs - and found it worth doing.50what does the text mainly discuss? awhat pets bring to their owners. bhow pets help people calm down. cpeoples opinions of keeping pets. dpets value in medical research.51we learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if ahe has a pet companion bhe has less stress of work che often does mental arithmetic dhe is taken care of by his family52according to allen, why did the people do better with pets around when lcing stressful tasks? athey have lower blood pressure. bthey become more patient. cthey are less nervous. dthey are in higher spirits.53the research mentioned in the last paragraph reports thatapeople with dogs did more exercise bdogs lost the same weight as people did cdogs liked exercise much more than people did dpeople without dogs found the program

parents and teachers are starting independent public schools called charter schools.in 1991, there were no charter schools in the united states. today, more than 2300 charter schools operate in 34 states and the district of columbia. 575000 students attend these schools. the students are from 5 years of age through 18 or older.a charter school is created by groups of parents, teachers and community members. it is similar in some ways to a traditional public school. it receives tax money to operate a number of students. the charter school must prove to local or state governments that its students are learning. these governments provide the school with the agreement, or charter that permits it to operate.unlike a traditional public school, however, the charter school does not have to obey most laws governing public schools. local, state or federal governments cannot tell it what to teach.each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach those goals. class sizes are usually smaller than in many traditional public schools. many students and parents say teachers in charter schools can be more creative.however, state education agencies, local education-governing committees and unions often oppose charter schools. they say these schools may receive money badly needed by traditional public schools. experts say some charter schools are doing well while others are struggling.congress provided 200 million dollars for establishing charter schools in the 2006 federal budget. but, often the schools say they lack enough money for programs. many also lack needed space. district officials say they have provided 14 former school buildings for charter education. yet charter school supporters say officials should try harder to find more space.
