Its all free of chargeThe Open Course ware (OCW) movement, begun at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)in 2002 and now spread to some 120 other universities worldwide，aims to spread knowledge to anyone who has an Internet connection and a desire to learn.OCW provides free access to course materials such as video lectures，notes，homework and so on. By giving away their content，the universities are not discouraging students from joining themInstead，the online materials appear to be only attracting moreThe MIT site，along with companion sites that translate the materials into other languages，now average about 1.4 million visits per month from learners in every single country on the planetSo-called “distance learning” over the Internet is not new. Students have been able to pay for online courses at many institutions, either to receive credits(学分)or simply as a noncredit adult-learning experience .Many universities also offer free materials delivered through the InternetBut the total number and variety of the educational materials being released（发布)provided by MIT is simply shocking. For example，each of the 29 courses that Tufts University in Medford，Mass.，has put online so far is exactly the size of a textbook. The material provides much more than an online of a course. Visitors to TuftsOCW course on“Wildlife Medicine”call it the most complete website on that topic in the worldWhat OCW is not, its supporters agree，is a substitute for attending a university. For one thing, OCW learners are not able to receive instructions from a professor-or to discuss the course with fellow studentsIt is believed that a college education is really the total package of students working with other students，forming networks，communicating with teachers, and that whole environment of being associated with the school.1. The purpose of the OCW movement is_.Ato help reduce the expenses of university educationB .to win for MIT an advantage over other universitiesC. to provide educational materials through the InternetD. to make knowledge available to learners on the Internet2According to the passage，what OCW learners wont have is_.A. free online course materialsBcredits after attending the coursesCa non-credit adult-learning experienceD .normal communication with teachers and classmates3 .The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means_.AOCW cannot take the place of normal university educationBOCW is believed to be a perfect match for attending a universityCOCW can offer students more materials than attending a universityDOCW can help learners complete university education at a low cost4. The passage is written mainly to_.A excite young peoples learning desire Bpraise MIT for spreading knowledgeC inform people about the OCW movement Dtell people bow to go to MIT for freeBTo what degree can a computer achieve intelligence? The answer to his question may lie in a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.2,4,6If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kids huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Childs age returns. “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives gets, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”Smarter Child uses the vast information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weather, he visits .Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the combined knowledge of, say, Allbert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A.I. Artificial Intelligence, he must overcome two problems. The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are labeled in different ways. Thats why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it himself.Another problem is that while Smarter Child can process(处理) information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks common sensea basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious to any young child.5From the text we can infer that is a website .Awhich is specially designed to help Smarter ChildBwhere we people can find Smarter ChildCwhere weather forecasts are madeDwhich is about artificial intelligence6It is probably most difficult for Smarter Child to .Atell us how to spell a difficult wordBtell us how the American government is runCprovide us with a famous poem by ShakespeareDlearn the ability to tell right behavious from wrong ones7Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?ASmarter Child has his own memory bank big enough for all kinds of informationBA.I. Artificial Intelligence is probably the name of a film about a boy-computer.CSmarter Child can recognize different files and find information needed on his own.DWe have similar product now which has the knowledge of Einstein, Nixon and Spears.8Which of the following is the best title for the passage?AA New Web ChildBSmarter Child CThe Future of InternetDIntelligence DevelopmentCQueensland has recently started to carry out a water recycling policy. Queenslanders will be drinking recycled water as well as using it for other purposesThey were quickly followed by South Australia，where the government changed their former antirecycling policies.So what is Victorian Government doing? Its bringing Victorians “good news that they wont have to drink recycled waterGreat. We actually have a government that is DUMBER than SA and QLD ones Good news indeedNow every Melbournian knowswe are smarter and better than the Queensland folksThen why are we run by fools ?Bracksgovernment has put the States water protection on the constant force，by using dangerous and awful system for its projects and falling to provide the necessary rules for the industrial needsAfter spoiling the water resources for years on endBracksie blames the households (i.e. YOU)for water wasteageRidiculous restrictions (限制) are made，supported by Dobyourneighbour phone line .Cars become dirty，grass becomes dead，naked people bathe in the showers. Water resources keep on decreasing .So instead of supporting recycling，Bracks owes it to peoples showing no attention. Most of Europe as well as part of Asia drink recycled water ,despite not being in a serious draught (干旱)like AustraliaDrinking recycled water is SAFE，if the technologies used are proper ones.Meanwhile，the real reason for the draughtsenvironmental change is hardly being addressed by the State Government at all .Yes，they have given us a target for CO2 20 decrease in 20 yearstime，but we question：A，that is not enough；B，that is too far away； C，what is going to be done to achieve those targets?9According to the author，it is_ for Victorian Government to refuse the waterrecycling policyA. necessary B .great Cunimportant Dstupid10Victorian Government believes that_Athe recycling policy of the other states is effectiveB .supporting water recycling is all Victorians dutyCgiving a target to decrease C02 also means recyclingD1imiting the use of water resources is very important11The author thinks that the decrease of water is mainly caused by_.A .environmental pollution B .industrial developmentC .the governments wrong policies D. human beingswrong use12The passage mainly talks about_.Aa thirsty world Ba wrong policy Ca wise decision Da new researchDUntil recently, the “science of the future” was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligenceToday it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in technology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistry and genetic engineeringThis combination is the science of biotechnology Organic（有机的）chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic（合成的） materialsHowever, it is still difficult to manufacture anything that has the capacity of wool to keep heat and also to absorb moistureNothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near the combination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in “growing” a material that has many of the characteristics of human skinThe next step may well be “biotech hearts and eyes” which can replace diseased organs in huma
