任务型读写。     China"s College Entrance Examination (CEE)in 1977 and 1978 changed the fate of a group of
Chinese people with large age differences and from all walks of life.Thirty years later, some of them
anxiously wait outside exam spots, praying for good luck for their only child.
     The Chinese describe the CEE, or gaokao in Chinese, as "thousands of troops on a singlelog bridge
" because of the limited number of places at universities.For students in the countryside, the tough exams
may be their only opportunity to escape the hardship of country life.
     A survey conducted by the Ministry of Education and the China Youth Daily showed 89.6% of
those people felt their fate was changed by the exam.Among those who said their fate was "totally
changed", 69.1% came from the countryside and only 30.9% were from cities.Some Chinese think too
much emphasis is placed on having a university diploma (文凭). It is believed that a person will not find
a proper job without a college certificate, and that there are increasingly fewer jobs even for college
graduates.
     Although the CEE is still a major means of selecting people for higher education after 30 years of
development, the society has gradually adjusted its standard.
     A lot of people think that the CEE needs reforming, but these reforms will have to be gradual.While
debates over the exam continue, more people believe it is the only open, fair and just way of talent
selection.

     Back in the 1970s, the robots were coming for our boring manufacturing (生产) jobs.Now, they"re
coming for our boring table service jobs.Korean company ITM Technology has developed the restaurant
concept around a little robot that fulfills the role of a waiter.Robo Caf? avoids ordering errors, reduces
staffing costs greatly for restaurant owners, and even brings the boss all the tips.
     Japan is preparing for some very tough times ahead.When its aging population become too old to
work, labor is going to be in severe shortage.So inventive technology departments are exploding with really fascinating ideas to take the pressure off when it hits.
     To small caf? and restaurant owners, the solution might well look something like Robo Café, a
restaurant designed to operate as efficiently as possible with the absolute minimum human workforce
possible.The building needs to be designed with small horizontal (水平的) pathways leading from the kitchen to all the tables.A small team of waiter robots can then get around to every table in the house when they"re asked to come.Customers can either order orally, or touch a screen on the robot"s belly.When the
kitchen has finished preparing the food, the robot brings it out to customers.
     Dan Carlin talks about the "kitchen of the future ", where everything is automated and the labor is free
because you own it.Really, the_kitchen_of_the_future_is actually_the_kitchen of_the_past, when you
consider that throughout human history, there have been many examples of slaves working for no pay.
     As Carlin points out, today"s concept of slavery is mostly restricted to nonhumans.And the ownership
of robot labor in a Robo Caf ?type situation will almost certainly prove itself far more economical and
dependable than a human workforce once the technology itself becomes mature.Of course, slaves have a worrying habit of rising up against their owners.
1. According to the passage, the robots that were invented in the last century could________.
A. do some work that people dare not do
B. bring lots of fun and profits to their owners
C. do some housework such as table service work
D. save people from having to do some boring manufacturing work
2. According to the passage, what will a Robo Café-type restaurant be like?
A. Most of the work will be done by robots.
B. Owners needn"t pay for the labour of their employees.
C. Robot waiters are designed to serve customers voluntarily.
D. The building will be designed for the convenience of customers.
3. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Employees depend on owners of restaurants as before.
B. Technology won"t change the core of the kitchen.
C. Labor free of charge can be used in the kitchen again.
D. Labor free of charge is no longer limited to humans.
4. The passage is mainly written to________.
A. explain why robots are popular in Japan
B. tell people that robots can work as waiters in restaurants
C. persuade readers to come to restaurants that use robots
D. show the similarities between robots in 1970 and new robots

     In the past 100 years Asian Americans have become the fastestgrowing US minority.As their children
began moving up through the nation"s schools,it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was
forming.Their achievements are reflected in the nation"s best universities,where mathematics,science and
engineering departments have taken on an Asian character.
     This special liking for mathematics is partly explained by the fact that AsianAmerican students who
began their education  abroad arrived in the US  with a solid  grounding in mathematics but little or  no
knowledge of English.They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college.Asians feel there
will be less unfair  treatment in areas  like mathematics and  science because they  will be judged more
objectively.And the return on the investment (投资) in education is more immediate in something like
engineering than that with an arts degree.
     Most AsianAmerican students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that
their children take full advantage of  what the American educational system  has to offer. An effective
measure of  parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their  children than
American parents do,and it helps.Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that
promotes success,such as ideals that stress family values and education.

Topic

In the past 1.________,Asian Americans have made great academic
achievements,making them the fastgrowing US 2.________.
Reflection of achievements

AsianAmerican students 3.________more in mathematics,science and
engineering.
4.________for their
achievements

Having a solid foundation in mathematics;
Expecting a good job after 5.________;
Receiving fairer treatment from more objective 6.________;
Realizing investment more 7.________;
Encouraged to make full 8.________of American educational system;
Performing well especially in homework with the 9.________of parents;
Living up to the ideals deeply 10.________in Asian culture.

     Compared to adults, children seem to be moving constantly.So it’s no surprise that most parents who
are quizzed about their child’s physical activity level describe their children as fairly active.But a new study of nearly 2,000 British school children suggests that many parents overestimate the amount of physical
activity their children are really getting.
     The researchers equipped 1,892 British school children, ages 9 and 10, with accelerometers that
measure all physical activity during a given time period.The research, known as the Speedy study
collected the exercise data from children at 92 schools in Norfolk, England, between April and July 2007.
     A child was regarded inactive if he or she recorded less than an hour a day of physical activity.
Although the majority of children studied were getting enough physical activity, a_sizable_minority_of_
children_were_not.Overall,39 percent of girls and 18 percent of boys studied were getting less than an
hour of physical activity each day.
     But if you asked the parents of the inactive children to describe their child’s activity level, the vast
majority-80 percent-described their children as fairly or very physically active, according to the findings
published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.Interestingly, the children themselves had
more awareness about their lack of physical activity.Overall,40 percent of children overestimated their
physical activity.
     But it wasn’t the parents of overweight children who were most likely to guess wrong about physical
activity levels.The parents who were most out of touch about their child’s physical fitness were more
likely to have children who were slim.Parents of girls were also more likely to overestimate physical
activity.The researchers noted that parents should be educated about the importance of physical activity
for children even if the child is not overweight.
    “Parents of slim children appear to assume that their children are adequately  active, ”  the study
authors reported.“Increasing awareness regarding health benefits of physical activity beyond weight
control might help have a correct idea of physical activity levels and encourage behavior change.”

1. According to the Speedy study, what kind of children can be judged physically inactive?

A. Slim children.
B. Children with less than an hour a day of physical activity.
C. Overweight children.
D. Children out of touch with their parents for a long time.

2. What does the writer probably mean by saying “a sizable minority of children were not” in Paragraph 3?

A. The amount of children’s physical activity is far from the writer’s satisfaction.
B. Only a small number of children were not getting enough physical activity.
C. A small number of children didn’t overestimate their physical activity.
D. The minority of children were not studied at all.

3. The passage is intended to________.

A. encourage parents to fairly judge their children’s physical activity levels
B. persuade parents to keep an eye on their children’s weight
C. urge children to wear accelerometers during exercise
D. advise parents to keep in touch with their children

     Have you ever thought about what determines the way we are when we grow up?Remember the
TV program Seven Up?It started following the lives of a group of children in 1973.We first meet them
as wideeyed sevenyearolds and catch up with them at sevenyear intervals:nervous 14yearolds, serious
21yearolds and then grownups.
     Some of the stories are inspiring, others sad, but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way
in which the children’s early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives.For example, at seven, Tony
is a lively child who says he wants to become a sportsman or a taxi driver.When he grows up, he goes on
to do both.How about Niki?She says, “I would like to find out about the moon.” And she goes on to
become a space scientist.As a child, softspoken Bruce says he wants to help “poor children” and ends up
teaching in India.
      But if the lives of all the children had followed this pattern, the program would be far less interesting
than it actually was.It was the children whose childhood did not prepare them for what was to come that
made the program so interesting.Where did their ideas come from about what they wanted to do when
they grew up?Are children influenced by what their parents do, by what they see on television or by
what their teachers say?How great is the effect of a single important event?Many film directors,
including Steven Spielberg, say that an early visit to the cinema was the turning point in their lives.Dr
Margaret McAllister, who has done a lot of research in this area, thinks that the major factors are parents, friends and their wider society.

1. What does the text mainly discuss?

A. New ways to make a TV program interesting.
B. The importance of TV programs to children.
C. Different ways to make childhood dreams come true.
D. The influence of childhood experience on future lives.

2. What does the underlined word “influenced” mean in the last paragraph?

A. Impressed.  
B. Improved.
C. Affected.  
D. Attracted.

3. What are the examples in Paragraph 2 meant to show?

A. Many people’s childhood hopes are related to their future jobs.
B. There are many poor children in India who need help.
C. Children have different dreams about their future.
D. A lot of people are very sad in their childhood.

4. Spielberg’s story is meant to show that________.

A. going to a movie at an early age helps a child learn about society
B. a single childhood event may decide what one does as a grownup
C. parents and friends can help a child grow up properly
D. films have more influence on a child than teachers do
