No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much pritorty（优先）it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling?If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. Thats why teachers often encourage the early use of dicitonaries an pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible （难以辨认的）.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was aslo a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation （动力）to seek improvement.46. Teachers are different in their opinions about _ .A. the difficulties in teaching spellingB. the role of spelling in general language developmentC. the complexities of the basic writing skillsD. the necessity of teaching spelling47. The expression “play safe” probably means _ .A. to write carefullyB. to do as teachers sayC. to use dictionaries frequentlyD. to avoid using words one is not sure of48. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that _ .A. students will be able to express their ideas more freelyB. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakesC. students will have more confidence in wrtingD. students will learn to be independent of teachers49. The writer seems to think that the teachers judgment on that sentitive piece of writing is _ .A. resonableB. foolishC. unfairD. careless50. The major point discussed in the passage is _ .A. the importance of developing writing skillsB. the complexities of spellingC. the correct way of marking compositionsD. the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionPassage 2A breakthrough（突破）in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EECs research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EECs scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan.The senior West German scientist in charge of the Communitys solar energy programmme, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Communitys energy requirements even after the year 2,000. But he said that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EECs needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisgy a much bigger share of the Communitys future energy needs.At present the EEC spends about $2.6 million a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EECs offical joint research centers, and another $3 million a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies.51. The phrase “be brought forward” in Line 2 most probably means _ .A. be expectedB. be completedC. be advancedD. be introduced52. Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy depends on _ .A. sufficient fundingB. further experimentsC. advanced technologyD. well-equipped laboratories53. According to Mr. Gretz, the present sum of money will enable the scientists to provide _ .A. a little more than 3% of the EECs needs after the year 2,000B. 3% of the EECs needs before the year 2,000C. less tha 3% of the EECs needs before the year 2,000D. only 3% of the EECs needs even after the year 2,00054. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The EEC spends only one billion pounds on imported energy each year.B. At the present level of research spending, it is difficult to make any significant progress in the provisiion of energy from the sunC. The desired breakthrough could be obtained by the end of the next decade if investment were increasedD. The total yearly spending of the EEC on solar energy research amounted to almost 6 million dollars55. The application of advanced technology to research in solar energy _ .A. would lead to a big increase to import oilB. would make it unnessary to import oilC. would make it possible to meet the future energy needs of the EECD. would provide a much greater proportion of the Communitys future energy needsPassage 3For a clearer picture of what the student knows, most teachers use another kind of examination in addition to objective tests。 they use essay tests， which require students to write long answers to broad， general questions such as the following： mention several ways in which benjamin franklin has influenced the thinking of people in his own country and in other parts of the world。 One advantage of the essay test is that it reduces the element of luck。 The student cannot get a high score just by making a lucky guess。 Another advantage is that it shows the examiner more about the students ability to put facts together into a meaningful whole。 It should show how deeply he has thought about the subject。 Sometimes， though， essay tests have disadvantages，too。 Some students ate able to write rather good answers without really knowing much about the subject， while other students who actually know the material have trouble e3xpressing their ideas in the essay form。 Besides， in an essay test the students score may depend upon the examiners feelings at the time of reading the answer。If he is feeling tired or bored， the student may receive a lower score than he should。 Another examiner reading the same answer might give it a much higher mark。 Because of this， the objective test gives each student a fairer chance， and of course it is easier and quicker to score。 Whether an objective test or an essay test is used， problems arise。 When some objective questions are used along with some essay questions， however，a fairly clear picture of the students knowledge can usually be obtained。56what many have been discussed in the previous paragraphs？ A.the essay test。 B. how teachers test their students。 C. how students write their essays。 D. the objective test。 57the essay test is preferred because_。 A. it shows more about the students understanding of the subject B. it tests the students knowledge of the material as well as his expression of ideas。 C. it gives each student a fairer chance D. its scoring may be influenced by the examiners feelings 58the word this (line 4， para。3) refers to the fact that _。 A. students may receive a lower score in an essay test B. another examiner usually gives the answer a higher mark C. different examiners may give the same essay different scores D. the objective test gives each student a fairer chance 59according to the passage， which of the following statements about the objective test is not true？ A. it is more objective than the essay test in terms of scoring。 B. it allows the student to guess the correct answer without really knowing the material。 C. it shows the students ability to think about difficult problems。 D. it is easy and quick to score。 60according to the author， an ideal test should be _ A. an objective test B. an essay test C. a combination of the two D. something newPassage 4Around the world two thirds of the people are farmers。 Most of them engage in subsistence farming。 This means that they raise plants and animals to furnish their families with food and other supplies。 They consume their varied output and have little to sell or to trade for other goods。 Subsistence farms were common in the united states at one time， but there are few such farms today。 Two thirds of american farmers practice commercial farming。 Commercial farms produce about 97 per cent of the countrys agricultural goods。 These farms are operated much like other industries。 The members of the farm family produce the commodities(商品) that will be sent to the market。 They sell their products and buy the things they need。 Some commercial farms are big factories in the field。 They may be owned by a company or by an individual as an investment。 Most american farms， however， are still operated by families。A farmer may own or rent his land。 In a country as large as the united states， farms vary widely in climate， land surface， soil，water supply， convenience to market， and other characteristics。 Different regions may have different kinds of specialized farms。 Specialized farmers concentrate on the kind of farming best suited to the land and climate， to their technical skills， and to the money they invest in the farm。 However， no region is limited to a single type of farm。 Indeed few farms are limited to one crop or commodity。 Where output is varied and no one kind of crop or commodity produces more than half of a farms income, it is classified as a general farm. The general farmer grows varied crops to use the different kinds of soils or surfaces on his land and to employ his time and machinery most efficiently。61subsistence farmers_ A. grow crops for their families own use B. sell a lot of their products for money C. trade their varied output for other goods D. use their agricultural products as commodities 62subsistence farms_。 A. are very popular in the united states now B. are still common in many parts of the world C. consist of two thirds of the total number of the farms in the world today D. used to be the major form of farming in the world 63american commercial farms_。 A. furnish the country with two thirds of the food its people need B. are run in much the same way as other industries C. are all owned by different companies D. never rent their land for farming 64a specialized farm is characterized by _。 A. its especially large size B. its independence of the market C. its concentration on a single type of farming D. its special way of operation 65a farm is classified as general if _。 A. more than half of its income comes from varied crops B. it is limited to a single type of farm C. it employs different kinds of machines D. the soils or surfaces of its land are used most efficientlyV.
