But I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备) and truly communicate with others. Once, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule no laptops, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in the class, some of them were not happy. Most students believe 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 think that I am anti-technology. Theres no truth to that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can teach my students well. 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 conversations and truly exchange ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for outstanding ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently. Ive been teaching my history class in this way for many years and 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 conversation is just too sweet to give up.34. What were some of the students in the history class unhappy with?A. the course material B. others misuse of technologyC. the writers class rule D. discussion topics35. According to the writer, the use of new technology in the classroom may . A. help students to better understand historical topics B. keep students from doing independent thing C. encourage students to have deep conversations D. lead students to misuse the technology.36. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The writer thinks highly of technology-free conversation in his class. B. The writer will change his teaching plan soon. C. The writer will give up teaching history.D. The writer wont hold on to his belief.37. What does the writer wants to tell us?A. Technology has different influences in different classes in college.B. Technology makes it difficult to have true communication in class.C. History classes can help students to develop their deep thinking.D. It is time for him to give up his teaching method in history class.CWhat time of day do you feel most alert (清醒的)? Are you more of a morning person? Or does your brain need a few hours to get going? A lot of research suggests that we should pay attention to our body clock. It can tell us what time of day we are best able to perform, according to the Wall Street Journal (华尔街日报).For example, many people work best later in the morning. This is because the bodys temperature takes time to go up through the day. Taking a warm shower when you wake up can help speed this up. And when the sun comes out for a few hours, it may help a lot, too. . Morning people will rise early and work better early in the day. Evening people will wake later but their brain will work better toward the end of the day.Research shows that were better at some activities at certain times of the day. Physical performance is at its best between 3 pm and 6 pm, so its better to exercise later in the day.Between noon and 4 pm, people begin to get distracted (思想不集中的). This is partly because our brain becomes less alert after we eat a big meal. Research also shows that we become sleepy around 2 pm.Finally, it is best to eat during our active periods. This allows our body to burn calories better and stops our blood sugar levels from getting too high. So a suitable time can help us keep healthy. Its necessary for us to know about it.38. Why do many people perform best later in the morning? A. they cant get up very earlyB. the bodys temperature needs time to rise C. they have to take a shower first D. thats when the brain wakes up39. Which of the following is the best to fill in the blank? A. But everyones body clock is different B. And everyones body clock is almost the same C. But everyones brain is different D.

Sleeping at 2 pm is not good for our health. D. Our body burns calories better at night.41. What would be the best title for the story? A. Research about time B. The best time to do things C. Brain performance D. Different periods of a dayDFor too many, the damage begins early in life. Four out of 10 infants（婴儿） born in the United States do not form a strong bond（关系）with either parent, and they will pay for that the rest of their lives. Many research projects, including a study from the University of Rochester show that nearly one-third of U.S. parents dont know what to expect from their newborns, or how to help them grow and learn and get along with others. Babies, as others have pointed out, dont come with an owners manual.The basic problem, according to the Princeton study, is 40 percent of infants in the U.S. live in fear or distrust of their parents, and that will turn into aggressiveness（侵犯）, defiance（挑衅）and hyperactivity（多动） as they grow into adults.Of that number, 25 percent dont bond with their parents because the parents arent reacting to their needs. And 15 percent find their parents so troubling that they will avoid them whenever possible.That will not necessarily result in a lifetime of violence, but it will make living a successful life much more difficult.“They can overcome it,” sociologist Sophie Moullin of Princeton, lead author of that study, said in a telephone interview. “Its not a make or break situation, but they might find it harder to control their behavior.”Moullin, along with coauthors from Columbia University and the University of Bristol in England, analyzed more than 100 research projects, to reach their conclusions.Many factors cause the problem, including poverty（贫穷）, ignorance（无知）, and stress among parents who are so busy with their own problems that a new child is sometimes more than they can handle.Yet strong bonds, the researchers say, are amazingly simple to achieve.42. According to the writing style of the passage, it may be a(n) _.A. argument B. news report C. novel D. story43. Which of the following is NOT true?A. About 40% of the newborns do not form a strong bond with either parent. B. Some parents are too busy with their own problems to handle a new child. C. Infants who fail to bond with their parents are sure to have an unsuccessful life.D. Parents failing to respond to their babies need may lead to future problems.44. What is the meaning of the underlined word “manual”?A. An expert who tells you how to take care of a baby. B. A TV show that tells you how to bond with your baby.C. A book that tells you how to do or operate something. D. A radio program explaining how to look after your baby. 45. What may be discussed in the following paragraph?A. Simple ways of achieving strong bonds with an infant.B. Examples of the consequences of lacking strong bonds.C. Findings of other similar project concerning this topic.D. Reasons for failing in building up strong bonds with a child. 四、词汇运用（共l0小题；每小题l分，计l0分）根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。（每空一词）46.

In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, it was a center for trade. Its people were very wealthy and powerful. The rulers of Atlantis controlled their people and land, and their power spread to Europe and Africa. The weather was very good in Atlantis, and therefore people could grow food all year around. Many different kinds of vegetables, fruits and nuts grew there, and a lot of different animals lived on the island, including elephants. Atlantis was the home of Poseidon, the Greek God of the Sea. Poseidon had ten sons, who became the first rulers of Atlantis. The islands many hills, fields and rivers were divided between the ten brothers. The eldest son, Atlas, was the first king of Atlantis. He controlled the islands central hill and its area nearby. At the top of the central hill, a temple was built in memory of Atlass father, Poseidon. Inside the temple was a huge gold statue of Poseidon. The rulers of Atlantis discussed laws in the temple. For centuries the people of Atlantis lived simple, honest and happy lives. However, over time they began to change. They enjoyed the power they had and wanted to have more of it. When the God Zeus saw how corrupt (腐败) the people of Atlantis were, he was very angry and gathered the other gods together. At last the gods agreed with Zeus and decided to sink (下沉) the island. In one short day and a half, the island of Atlantis, its people and its memory were destroyed forever, swallowed (吞) up by the sea.Atlantis: The Lost IslandBrief (56) of the island It is a beautiful and wealthy island which is supposed to have existed over 11,000 years ago. 来源:学|科|网Z|X|X|KIt (57) in the middle of the Atlantic ocean and became a center for trade.The rulers of it got its people and land (58) control.Weather on the island It had
