Such classes (21) be offered in many colleges and universities to meet high student (22) with limited faculty resource, (23)

12、 teaching a large lecture class can be a (24) task. Lecture halls are (25) large, barren, and forbidding. It is difficult to get to know students. Students may seem bored in the (26) environment and may (27) read newspapers or even leave class in the middle of a lecture. Written work by the students

13、 seems out of the (28) .Although the challenges of teaching a large lecture class are (29) , they are not insurmountable. The solution is to develop (30) methods of classroom instruction that can reduce, if not (31) , many of the difficulties (32) in the mass class. In fact, we have (33) at Kent Sta

14、te University teaching techniques which help make a large lecture class more like a small (34) .An (35) but important benefit of teaching the course (36) this manner has involved the activities of the teaching assistants who help us mark students written work.

22、earch because of the theory that animals have rights ruling out their use in research. Scientists need to respond forcefully to animal rights advocates, whose arguments are confusing the public and thereby threatening advances in health knowledge and care. Leaders of the animal rights movement targe

23、t biomedical research because it depends on public funding, and few people understand the process of health care research. Hearing allegations of cruelty to animals in research settings, many are perplexed that anyone would deliberately harm an animal.For example, a grandmotherly woman staffing an a

24、nimal rights booth at a recent street fair was distributing a brochure that encouraged readers not to use anything that comes from of is tested in animals-no meat, no fur, no medicines. Asked if she opposed immunizations, she wanted to know if vaccines come from animal research. When assured that th

25、ey do, she replied, “Then I would have to say yes.“ Asked what will happen when epidemics return, she said, “Dont worry, scientists will find some way of using computers.“ Such well-meaning people just dont understand.Scientists must communicate their message to the public in a compassionate, unders

26、tandable way-in human terms, not in the language of molecular biology. We need to make clear the connection between animal research and a grandmothers hip replacement, a fathers bypass operation, a babys vaccinations, and even a pets shots. To those who are unaware that animal research was needed to

27、 produce these treatments, as well as new treatments and vaccines, animal research seems wasteful at best and cruel at worst.Much can be done. Scientists could “adopt“ middle school classes and present their own research. They should be quick to respond to letters to the editor, lest animal rights m

28、isinformation go unchallenged and acquire a deceptive appearance of truth. Research institutions could be opened to tours, to show that laboratory animals receive humane care. Finally, because the ultimate stakeholders are patients, the health research community should actively recruit to its cause

29、not only well-known personalities such as Stephen Cooper, who has made courageous statements about the value of animal research, but all who receive medical treatment. If good people do nothing, there is a real possibility that an uninformed citizenry will extinguish the precious embers of medical p

30、rogress.（分数：10.00）(1).The author begins his article with Edmund Burkes words to _.A. call on scientists to take some actionsB. criticize the misguided cause of animal rightsC. warn of the doom of biomedical researchD. show the triumph of the animal rights movement（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Misled people t

31、end to think that using an animal in research is _.A. cruel but natural B. inhuman and unacceptableC. inevitable but vicious D. pointless and wasteful（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The example of the grandmotherly woman is used to show the publics _.A. discontent with animal research B. ignorance about medica

32、l scienceC. indifference to epidemics D. anxiety about animal rights（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The author believes that, in face of the challenge from animal rights advocates, scientists should _.A. communicate more with the public B. employ hi-tech means in researchC. feel no shame for their cause D. str

33、ive to develop new cures（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).From the passage we learn that Stephen Cooper is _.A. a well-known humanist B. a medical practitionerC. an enthusiast in animal rights D. a supporter of animal research（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.五、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Male chauvinism-the attitude that women a

34、re the passive and inferior servants of society and of men-sets women apart from the rest of the working class. Even when they do the same work as men, women are not considered workers in the same sense, with the need and right to work to provide for their families or to support themselves independe

35、ntly. They are expected to accept work at lower wages and without job security. Thus they can be used as a marginal or reserve labor force when profits depend on extra low costs or when men are needed for war.Women are not supposed to be independent, so they are not supposed to have any “right to wo

36、rk“. This means, in effect, that although they do work, they are denied the right to organize and fight for better wages and conditions. Thus the role of women in the labor force undermines the struggles of male workers as well. The boss can break a union drive by threatening to hire lower paid wome

37、n or blacks. In many cases, where women are organized, the union contract reinforces their inferior position, making women the least loyal and militant union members. (Standard Oil workers in San Francisco recently paid the price of male supremacy. Women at Standard Oil have the least chance for adv

38、ancement and decent pay, and the union has done little to fight this. Not surprisingly, women formed the core of the back to work move that eventually broke the strike.)In general, because women are defined as docile, helpless, and inferior, they are forced into the most demeaning and mind rotting j

39、obs-from scrubbing floors to filing cards-under the most oppressive conditions where they are treated like children or slaves. Their very position reinforces the idea, even among the women themselves, that they are fit for and should be satisfied with this kind of work.Apart from the direct, materia

40、l exploitation of women, male supremacy acts in more subtle ways to undermine class consciousness. The tendency of male workers to think of themselves primarily as men (i.e., powerful) rather than as workers (i. e., members of an oppressed group) promotes a false sense of privilege and power, and an

41、 identification with the world of men, including the boss. The petty dictatorship which most men exercise over their wives and families enables them to vent their anger and frustration in a way which poses no challenge to the system. The role of the man in the family reinforces aggressive individual

42、ism, authoritarianism, and a hierarchical view of social relations-values which are fundamental to the perpetuation (不朽) of capitalism. In this system we are taught to relieve our fears and frustrations by brutalizing those weaker than we are: a man in uniform turns into a pig; the foreman intimidat

43、es the man on the line; the husband beats his wife, child, and dog.（分数：10.00）(1).Unfair working status of women also produces negative effects on men in that _.A. men face the threat of being replaced by low wage womenB. men have to deal with womens complaints all the timeC. womens low income often

44、irritate their husbandsD. womens inferior working condition worries their husbands（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The failure of the strike of Standard Oil workers shows that _.A. when women are involved, strikes are bound to failB. passive women involvement in strikes makes success unlikelyC. women are not of

45、ten firm enough in organized strikesD. most women are loyal and militant members of work unions（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Many women also think they deserve oppressive jobs because _.A. they are taught by society to believe soB. their husbands do not expect them to have better jobsC. their poor conditions

46、 strengthen their mental acceptanceD. they gradually begin to love those jobs they do（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _.A. male workers are often treated as men instead of workers in companiesB. males anger and frustration are posing serious threat to our present

47、systemC. it is quite natural for males to beat their wives, children and dogs for no reasonD. males dominating role in families eventually helps the stability of capitalist system（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The best title for this passage might be _.A. Men and Women in CapitalismB. The Effects of Mens Supr

48、emacy on WomenC. Dictatorship and Women StrikeD. Womens Role in Work Union Successes（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.六、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：10.00)It remains to be seen whether the reserves of raw materials in the year 2000 will be sufficient to supply a world economy which will have grown by five hundred percent.

49、 Southeast Asia alone will have an energy consumption five times greater than that of Western Europe in 1970. Incidentally, if the underdeveloped countries started using up petrol at the same rate as the industrialized areas, then world reserves would be exhausted by 1990.All this only goes to show just how important it is to set up a plan to conserve and divide up fairly natural resources on a worldwide scale.Th
