In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid - one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degree refuse to do what they think to be “low” work, and, in fact, working with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor. We can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns.In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of ones work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.21. According to the passage, the purpose of education is _.A. to build a perfect worldB. to choose a system of educationC. to let everyone receive education fit for him D. to prepare children mainly for their future work22. Which of the following is True according to the passage?A. Its hard for university graduates to find jobs.B. No one would like to do work with hands.C. Education is not enough to build a perfect nation.D. University graduates are ashamed of their work.23. In the writers opinion, _.A. all the social problems cant be solved by educationB. free education for ail probably leads to a perfect worldC. free education won t help to solve social problemsD. education can settle all of the worlds problemsBI had the meanest mother in the world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs and toast. Others had cokes and candy for lunch, while we had to eat a sandwich. As you can guess, my supper was different from other kids. But at least I was not alone in my suffering. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.My mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times. She had to know who our friends were and what we were doing. We had to wear clean clothes every day. Other kids always wore their clothes for days. We reach the height of disgrace because she made our clothes herself, just to save money. The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by 9:00 each night and up at 7:45 the next morning. So when my friends slept, my mother actually had the courage to break Child Labor Law. She made us work. I believed she lay awake all night thinking up mean things to do to us.Through the years, our friends report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing ,red for falling. My mother, however, would merely be content with black marks. None of us was allowed the pleasure of being a dropout.She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. Using this as a background, Im now trying to bring up my three children. Im filled with pride and when my children think I am mean because I now thank God everyday for giving me the meanest mother in the world.24.

But parents are usually the ones buying the phones, and paying the bill. According to a study, 56% of parents of children aged 8 to 12 have given their children a cell phone. According to a recent survey, 12 is the magic number. It is the most common age for kids to get their first cell phone. But 13% of children aged 6 to 10 already have one. Thats more than one out of every 10 kids.Pro-cell phone people, including many parents, notice that cell phones help kids keep in touch with their friends and families. They believe that cell phones are an important tool in a dangerous situation. Kids can stay connected with their parents at all times, whether its to ask for a ride home from soccer practice or to receive a good luck text message moments before a big game. Plus, some cell phone designed for kids can be controlled with settings that allow the phone to only be used in parent - approved ways. Whats the harm in that?But other people are worried about the health and safety effects of kids cell phones. They believe that plugged - in kids could be missing out on other activities, such as playing outside or hanging out with friends, and that sending text messages or fielding phone calls while doing homework is bad for concentration. They say that kids are spending too much time texting instead of talking to each other. “Our brains evolved to communicate face to face,” says Gary Small, a professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine, in California. “A lot of this is lost with texting.”And some experts are also concerned about possible health risks. They worry that radiation or energy waves-released by cell phones could be harmful to young people. To be safe, many pediatricians advise limiting talk time.28. The recent survey suggests that _.A. the number twelve can bring us good luckB. most kids arc eager to have their own cell phonesC. many kids have their first cell phone at the age of 12D. more than half of the parents can afford to buy cell phones29. Pro cell phone people probably refer to those who think that kids _.A. mustnt own cell phoneB. should have cell phonesC. had better make more friendsD. may lose touch with others30. What would be the main idea of Paragraph 3?A. The disadvantages of cell phones.B. Cell phones designed for kids.C. The kinds of cell phones.D. How to send text message.31. The authors attitudes toward the fact that kids have cell phones is _.A. supportiveB objectiveC. negativeD. optimisticDFor more than twenty years scientists have been searching for signs of life on other planets. Most of these searches have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships traveling through space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.Scientists are using powerful radio telescope to listen to signals from about 1,000 stars, all within 100 light years of earth. In addition, they will scan (扫视) the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time. Scientists are looking for any signal that stands out from the background noise.Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy, scientists find that five percent are like our sun. Perhaps half of them have a planet like earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution (进化) of life. Based on the inhabitable (that can be lived in) planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.Other scientists believe that our search hasnt been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our galaxy. Although our sun family in only about five billion years old, our galaxy is about 20 billions years old. In that time, some scientists think it is likely that civilizations are much more advanced than ours. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.32. According to the passage, how many planets in our galaxy might be inhabitable?A. 15 billion. B. 10 billion.C. 5 billionD. 200 billion33. The first paragraph in this passage is mainly about_.A. why scientists are looking for signs of life on other planetsB. how scientists are looking for signs of life on other planetsC. where scientists are looking for signs of life on other planetsD. when scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets34. The underlined word “monitor” in the passage means “_”.A. findB. followC. formD. check35. Which of these statements is True based on the information in the passage?A. Scientists are tying different ways to find signs of life on other planets.B. Most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets.C. The earth is one of the oldest planets in our galaxy.D. Scientists dont believe that there might be life on other planets.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Whether youre a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect for your parents is an important value.
