educationthe key to human development.However,technology offers an answer which allows the poor in developing countries to learn.It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor,as it provides a means of learning and communicating.Educational programmes must break away from old systems.New companies such as One Laptop(笔记本电脑)Per Child(OLPC),an organisation founded by MIT Professor Nicholas Negroponte have been active in solving the worlds education problem.The Internet has changed the world,allowing educational services to help with the global fight against poverty.Khan Academy is one such service.Like OLPC,it is an organisation founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of “providing a world-class education to anyone,anywhere”.The education offered includes a large number of math-related topics.The GMAT Pill Review is another company that trains MBA candidates(应考人)worldwide to prepare for the GMAT exam on both the Quant and Verbal section.Founded by Stanford graduate Zeke Lee,the company offers services which are priced at about 75% less than other similar programmes.It allows students from developing countries who might not be able to afford similar courses to have access to these services.Whether paid or free these services provide educational opportunities to those who would never have had the chance in the past.As a result of the technology revolution(革新),business schools may see more students from different corners of the world.Because of the Internet,people in developing nations have access to better and more affordable educational opportunities.More and more people will try to improve their lives through educational opportunities outside of their homelandan idea usually uncommon in developing countries.21.According to the text,technology can .A.improve peoples reading abilityB.solve the problems facing the whole worldC.help the poor to reduce povertyD.cause poverty in developing countries答案:C解析:根据第一段的“It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor,as it provides a means of learning and communicating.”可知,由于科技提供学习和交流的方法,所以它是能够改变穷人命运的工具。22.We can learn from the text that Khan Academy aims to .A.help the poor pay for good coursesB.provide every child with a computerC.help train MBA candidatesD.make everyone receive good education答案:D解析:根据第三段的“Khan Academy is one such service.Like OLPC,it is an organisation founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task ofproviding a world-class education to

themselvesC.always believed education was of great importanceD.wouldnt leave their homeland to reduce poverty答案:B解析:由最后一段的“More and more people will try to improve their lives through educational

write the text?A.To introduce some organisations in developed countries to help developing countries by technology.B.To explain why education and technology revolution are very important to developing

digital technology in education.Connected is the Obama Governments five-year plan to support the growth of digital learning in schools.This growth includes equipping Americas schools with high-speed broadband Internet(宽带互联网).At the conference,President Barack Obama said the U.S.Department of Education is taking steps to help educators and school districts as they change to digital learning.The department created new guidelines to help schools work to improve their technological infrastructure(基础设施).The guidelines are also designed to help schools choose the right digital devices(装备)and set up policies(政策)for their proper use.“We have to do more to offer our children a world-class education,”Obama told the crowd of school leaders.“We have to improve our education level if we are going to make sure that every child in America can go as far as their dreams and talents will take them.”According to Cecilia Muoz,director of the Domestic Policy Council,less than 40% of public schools in America have high-speed Internet access in their classrooms.She believes that Connected will make America a leader in using technology to educate students.Muoz mentioned the Mooresville school district as a success story.Mooresville provides each student in grades 3 through 12 with a device,and uses a mostly digital subject.Muoz said Mooresville now ranks third in test scores and second in graduation rates(比例)in the state.At the end of the presidents speech,1,200 school leaders attending the event signed the Future Ready District Pledge on their iPads.It promises the education leaders to help develop a culture of learning through technology at their schools,and to support teachers and students in using technology.“Every child deserves a chance at a world-class education,”Obama added.“Thats what makes our nation great.”25.Who will take charge of putting the plan into practice?A.The leaders of all the schools.B.All the state government officials.C.The U.S.Department of

fact,half of the 6,0007,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century,according to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,and Cultural Organization(UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss,scholars from a number of organizationsUNESCO and National Geographic among themhave for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in that tradition.His recently published book,A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,working,and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materialsincluding photographs,films,tape recordings,and field noteswhich had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now,through the two organizations that he has foundedthe Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature ProjectTurin has started a campaign to make such documents,found in libraries and stores around the world,available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet,Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.29.Many scholars are making efforts to .A.promote global languagesB.rescue disappearing languagesC.search for language communitiesD.set up language research organizations答案:B解析:由第二段可知,许多组织和学者付出努力正是为了保持语言的多样性,即为了拯救那些正在消失的语言。30.What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Having full records of the languages.B.Writing books on language teaching.C.Telling stories about language users.D.Living with the native speakers.答案:A解析:第三段中的that tradition应指上文提到的传统,本句的上文就是第二段中的“documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect”,即完全记录下正在消失的语言以及它们所反映的文化。故选A项。31.What is Turins book based on?A.The cultural studies in India.B.The documents available at Yale.C.His language research in Bhutan.D.His personal experience in Nepal.答案:D解析:由第三段最后一句中的“grows out of his experience living,working,and raising a family in a village in Nepal”可知,Mark Turin的书籍是以他自己在尼泊尔的经历为依据的。32.Which of the following best describes Turins work?A.Write,sell and donate.B.Record,repair and reward.C.Collect,protect and reconnect.D.Design,experiment and report.答案:C解析:由短文最后一段中的“were originally collected”“the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities”可推知,C项正确。DWhen I was in college,I was always very passionate(热情的)about music and I was proud to be a member of our band.However,I almost
