举一反三
Will Nanfang University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen announce a new beginning for China’s higher education reform? It’s too early to answer. But its presence is challenging the Ministry of Education. Even without the approval of the ministry it seems that the school is determined to move forward and enroll(招收)50 students, so-called child prodigies(奇才), to begin classes on March l, 2011.On graduating in 2015, these students will receive a diploma unauthorized by the Ministry of Education-unlike the students of their age from the state-run universities.
The school is committed to modeling itself on Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, but if the government will not approve the school, the situation could cause a lot of trouble for those 50 students if they want to do graduate studies at other higher learning institutions. Other schools could turn their applications down for their unauthorized diplomas.
The difficulties, however, have not frightened students and their parents away. On Dec.18, 2010 more than 1,000 students and their parents visited Nanfang University of Science and Technology for interviews.
Private investment marks the school out from other higher learning institutions in the nation. Not a penny comes from the government. So the government will have no voice in how the school will be run.
The Ministry of Education has published a comprehensive plan for education reform and development between 2011 and 2020.The goal is to make China’s higher education internationally competitive. To accomplish this goal, the government should have the courage to let the educators who have big ideas try them out. The ministry should have applauded the independence the school in Shenzhen has shown and encouraged more to do likewise.
Education reform in China has reached a new and crucial stage. Nanfang University of Science and Technology has a long way to go to prove itself competitive rather than a diploma mill.
小题1: What will makes those 50 students different from others?
A.They are all child prodigies.
B.They will study much longer time.
C.They are willing to challenge the Ministry of Education.
D.They will receive an unauthorized diploma.
小题2: Over 1,000 students and parents visited the school because            .
A.they believe that the school will have a bright future
B.they believe the government is sure to approve the school
C.the school models itself on Hong Kong University successfully
D.they will never do graduate studies at other higher learning institutions
小题3:The trouble the students in the school may have is that            .
A.the government will have no voice in the school
B.they won’t receive any diploma when graduating from the school
C.other schools are unlikely to accept their diploma from the school
D.they will not learn how to be competitive
小题4: What does the author think of Nanfang University of Science and Technology?
A.It is another kind of diploma mill.
B.It’s impossible for the school to be competitive.
C.It will never get the approval from the Ministry of Education.
D.Its independence from the government may benefit the education reform.
小题5:What is the best title of the passage?
A.University of New Style.B.China’s Education Reform.
C.Modeling Hong Kong University.D.Authorized or Not?

Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, you’ll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isn’t enough for consumers these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, don’t buy anything just because it’s cheaper than usual! “New and Improved!” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of ingredients(contents) on the back. Third, compare prices: that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand.
Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores aren’t very attractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores.
Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.
小题1:All the following statements are true about the phrase “ordinary items” in Paragraph 2 EXCEPT __________.
A.ordinary items never say “New and Improved” or “All Natural”
B.ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brands
C.producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary items
D.the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands
小题2:What does the writer think about ads? __________
A.They are believable.B.They are attractive.
C.They are full of misinformation.D.They are helpful to consumers.
小题3:One of the author’s suggestions to consumers is __________.
A.to make use of ads
B.not to buy items with words like “New and Improved” or “All Natural”
C.to buy high quality items such as famous brands after lunch
D.to buy any ordinary items instead of famous brands
小题4:The author implies that __________.
A.going into the supermarket hungry, you may buy more than you plan to
B.the quality of ordinary items is usually high and the prices are relatively low
C.discount clothing stores are good places to go to
D.ads sometimes don’t tell the truth

A new study warns that about thirty percent of the world"s people may not have enough water by the year 2025.
A private American organization called Population Action International did the new study. It says more than three-hundred-thirty-five-million people lack enough water now. The people live in twenty-eight countries. Most of the countries are in Africa or the Middle East.
P-A-I researcher Robert Engelman says by the year 2025, about three-thousand-million people may lack water. At least 18 more countries are expected to have severe water problems. The demand for water keeps increasing. Yet the amount of water on Earth stays the same.
Mr. Engelman says the population in countries that lack water is growing faster than in other parts of the world. He says population growth in these countries will continue to increase.
The report says lack of water in the future may result in several problems. It may increase health problems. Lack of water often means drinking waters are not safe. Mr. Engelman says there are problems all over the world because of diseases, such as cholera, which are carried in water. Lack of water may also result in more international conflict. Countries may have to compete for water in the future. Some countries now get sixty percent of their fresh water from other countries. This is true of Egypt, the Netherlands, Cambodia, Syria, Sudan, and Iraq. And the report says lack of water would affect the ability of developing to improve their economies. This is because new industries often need a large amount of water when they are beginning.
The Population Action International study gives several solutions to the water problem. One way, it says, is to find ways to use water for more than one purpose. Another way is to teach people to be careful not to waste water. A third way is to use less water of agriculture.
The report also says long-term solutions to the water problem must include controls on population growth. It says countries cannot provide clean water unless they slow population growth by limiting the number of children people have.
小题1:           are expected to have severe water problems by the year 2025.
A.18 countriesB.No countries
C.46 countriesD.28 countries
小题2:All the following are true except            .
A.New industries need a lot of water
B.There are solutions to the water problem
C.Egypt now has enough fresh water
D.Lack of water may cause conflict between countries
小题3:It can be learned that          .
A. The ability of developing has nothing to do with lack of water.
B. . It is not known whether diseases have something to do with lack of water
C. Lack of water may also result from international conflict
D There is connection between providing clean water and slowing population growth
小题4:The best title of the passage would be         .
A.World Water ShortageB.Population and Water
C.World ConflictD.Diseases and Water

Children are losing the ability to play properly because they are being given too many toys and games, according to new research.
The studies show that children, especially those under five, are often overwhelmed and actually play less than those with fewer toys. It may even harm their development. The studies show that giving children too many toys or toys of the wrong type can actually be doing them harm. They get overwhelmed and cannot concentrate on anything long enough to learn from it.
The conclusions have been backed up by British research looking at children with relatively fewer toys, whose parents spend more time reading, singing or playing with them. It showed such children surpass(胜过) youngsters from richer backgrounds, even those who could use computers.
Some parents notice the ill effect early. Orhan Ismail, a researcher saw a change for the worse in Cameron, his 10-month-old son, after he was given a lot of toys last Christmas.
Ismail said, “ If there are too many toys in front of him, he will just keep flitting around them and then end up going off and finding something like a slipper to play with. Now we just get out one or two toys and hide the rest in a box.”
Alexander and her husband also decided to limit the toys their 6 daughters play with. She believed many toys restrict children’s imaginations. She said, “ A Barbie can only work as a Barbie. But a cardboard box can become anything. The only limitations are in the child’s mind.”
Experts hesitate to put a figure on the number of toys children should have, but many believe two dozen is enough for children of preschool age.
小题1:In the writer’s opinion, a Barbie _____.
A.can attract more attention from children than a cardboard box
B.can work more than a Barbie
C.may become anything else such as a cardboard
D.may keep children from further imaginations
小题2:Which of the following is TRUE about toys given to children?
A.too many toys will help children develop wide interests.
B.One or two toys at a time will help children concentrate.
C.Only wrong types of toys do harm to children.
D.The proper number of toys given to the children depends on their ages.
小题3:It may NOT be a good idea to ____.
A.spend more time reading or playing with children
B.choose right types of toys for children
C.ask experts for the exact number of necessary toys
D.put out one or two toys and hide the rest
