25、vate cars can be a great source of pollution in other cities, the main form of transport in the capital of Denmark is, however, public transportation. By public transportation, I mean one of very good quality. Buses are usually Volvo and most of the traffic lights are of Siemens. Additionally, buses

26、, metros and intercity-trains (named S-train) are well equipped, constantly maintained, special and good-looking. The seats in the trains are of sofa-designed. Sticky gum or dirty spot rarely appear. Thanks to a small population, it is much easier to maintain the condition of the vehicles. Free wire

27、less internet service is provided in S-trains. Seats are always possible even at rush hours if the passenger is patient enough to look for it. Taking the convenience for granted, Danish people find it hard to imagine how the metro in Tokyo can be as crowded as a “sardin can”. Pets and baby-wagons ar

28、e allowed in buses, subways and S-trains. All the facilities enable better service to bigger passenger group. It is also notable that the mass transit uses green fuels and electricity. Cars are common in Copenhagen, but people have an alternative of short distance transport: bikes. Denmark is known

29、as bike-friendly for many reasons, such as flat land, splendid cycle ways, and the Danish fond of motion. But please be aware that riding a bike in Copenhagen is not like biking in Beijing. First of all, it is quite speedy. Many people ride to work every morning. Punctuality is important and they ha

30、ve to ride as fast as possible to be on time. So why not speed up Not my philosophy. As a result, I am often hastened by impatient riders who unfortunately piled up after me. Second, considering the speed, bike helmets, front and back lights and other necessary accessories are required. Riders need

31、to set a white light in the front of the bike and red light at the back. One may end up with a big fine if not riding with them. 72. In the passage we get to know that _.

34、. D. many bike riders will shout at you. 答案： 7275 BACC Americans are proud of their variety and individuality (个性 ), yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United

35、 States Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的 ) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to in

36、spire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity (职业身份 ) than to step out of uniform Uniforms also have many practi

37、cal good points. They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes. Primary facts among the argument against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any parti

38、cular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the c

39、ost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes. 68. What surprises us is that Americans _. A. still judge a man by his clothes B. think highly of uniforms C. less

40、prefer wearing civilian clothes D. respect a elevator operator in uniform 69. People are likely to think that a man in uniform _. A. suggests quality work B. shows his social position C. appears to be more practical D. looks more fresh and attractive 70. Those who are against uniforms believe that p

41、eople wearing uniforms _. A. are usually helpful B. have little freedom C. lose personal character D. enjoy greater popularity 71. It can be concluded from the passage that _.

42、 acceptable to people D. people wear uniforms to show they should be respected 答案： 68-71 BACA In a recently published book , I came across some exercises with interesting names such as fishbone diagrams , lotus flowers and clustering . As I used these exercises in my classes , I noticed that student

43、s were interested . They said more and wrote more . They enjoyed expressing their ideas and sharing them in groups .They were no longer passively waiting for the bell, but actively took part in the lesson . I find that creativity can act as a way to increase participation and improve fluency (流利程度 )

44、. Creativity has become a popular word in recent years . Scholars in the arts ,psychology (心理学 ), business , education , and science are all working to get a deeper understanding of it . Robert J. Sternberg is a creativity specialist and Yale professor of psychology . He defines creativity as “the a

45、bility to produce work that is both new (original )and appropriate (applicable to the situation )”. This definition is useful, as we want our students to use language in a new way , and to use it correctly and properly . Most scholars say there are two types of creativity : big “C” creativity and sm

46、all “c” creativity. Big “C” creativity refers to genius level thinking that results in artistic masterpieces and scientific breakthroughs . Small “c” creativity refers to everyday level thinking that can be used in any situation . Our emphasis is on the latter . While it goes without saying that any

47、 of our students could go on to be the next Picasso or Edison , our aim is to help students produce more ideas and use language in new ways . 64 The underlined words “waiting for the bell” in the first paragraph probably mean _. A longing for a phone call B hoping to have a bell C expecting the end

A creative in the sense of big “C” creativity B creative in the sense of small “c” creativity C not creative in the s
