27、rections: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 45 Surprisingly, no one knows how many children receive education in English hospitals, still less the content or quality of that education. Proper records are j

28、ust not kept. We know that more than 850,000 children go through hospital each year, and that every child of school age has a legal right to continue to receive education while in hospital. We also know there is only one hospital teacher to every 1,000 children in hospital. Little wonder the latest

29、survey concludes that the extent and type of hospital teaching available differ a great deal across the country. It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher. A further quarter have only a part - time teacher. The special childrens hospitals in major cities do

30、best; general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off. From this survey, one can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher- and that contact may be as little as two hours a day. Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher

31、in hospital at all. They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school. If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do math or number work; without a teacher they would only play games. Reasons for hospital teaching range from preventing a child falling behind a

32、nd maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child occupied, and the latter is often all the teacher can do. The position and influence of many teachers was summed up when parents referred to them as “the library lady“ or just “the helper“. Children tend to rely on concerned school friends to kee

33、p in touch with school work. Several parents spoke of requests for work being ignored or refused by the school. Once back at school children rarely get extra teaching, and are told to catch up as best they can. Many short - stay child - patients catch up quickly. But schools do very little to ease t

34、he anxiety about falling behind expressed by many of the children interviewed. 46 The author points out at the beginning that _. （ A） every child in hospital is entitled to receive education （ B） not enough is known about hospital teaching （ C） hospital teaching is of unknown quality （ D） the specia

35、l childrens hospitals are worst off 47 It can be inferred from the latest survey that _. （ A） hospital teaching is not available （ B） each hospital has at least one part - time teacher （ C） all hospitals surveyed offer education to children （ D） only one- fourth of the hospitals have part- time teac

36、hers 48 Children in hospital usually turn to _ in order to catch up with their school work. （ A） hospital teachers （ B） schoolmates （ C） parents （ D） school teachers 49 We can conclude from the passage that the author is _. （ A） unfavorable towards children receiving education in hospitals （ B） in f

37、avor of the present state of teaching in hospitals （ C） unsatisfied with the present state of hospital teaching （ D） satisfied with the results of the latest survey 50 If there is a teacher available in the hospital, a child tend to _. （ A） spend some time studying as they do at school （ B） complain

38、 to the hospital about the conditions （ C） be prepared for the study （ D） try their best to study 50 With only about 1,000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone (克隆 ) the animal and save the endangered species. Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A hello, Nancy Wang. Com

39、e in, and how have you been keeping recently? W: Quite all right, thanks, Dr. Francis. How is your project going? M: Very smoothly, I should say. Im playing a consultancy role, really. Ive only been here in China for a month, but Ira already on very good terms with my colleagues in the Department of

40、 Computer Science. Well, Im happy that you could come. Do sit down, please. W: Dr. Francis, do you know Ive got a chance to go to Cambridge in August? I wonder if you could tell me something about Britain. M: Certainly. Well, I was actually brought up in Scotland. Er, in fact, Ive never been to Camb

41、ridge. But I will, yes, Im sure I can give some useful tips. Now, what do you want to know, Nancy? W: Things like the weather, foods and customs, etc. Now whats the usual temperature there? M: Mm, the temperature in Scotland is 22, or 23 degrees Centigrade, on average, I think. But Cambridge would b

42、e warmer, around 25, I would guess, because its down south. W: Oh, thats nice. Do you like it is 34 here? Last year it reached 39. By the way, where do you think I should stay? M: I suppose you can stay in the college - owned flats, which are often near where you have your classes, and some are even

43、 on the campus. That would certainly be convenient. W: I see. Thank you, Dr. Francis. 18 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 排除法是处理这道题的最好方法： A多余了 in Cambridge文中没有的信息； C中无法确认 a Scottish company这一信息。 19 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 这是对话中直接能够找到的信息。考生主要是要区分各个数据的对应部分： AB是 Scotland的温度； D则是谈话者现在所在地夏天的温度。 20 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 Dr Francis的建议是：

44、 You can stay in the college - owned flats near where you have your classes 21 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 这道题中没有特别明确 Nancy要去做什么的细节，但依据常识做题及其中已有的一些信息如 classes； college； department of computer science等等，再通过四个选项的排除法，就可以得出她最有可能是去深造学习的结论。 22 【听力原文】 M: Doctor Cole, thank you for agreeing to this interview for the Da

45、ily Campus News. Can you tell us about what you and your colleagues discuss at the annual astronomy society meeting last month? W: Yes, for the first time ever the scientific community has established the existence of planets outside our own solar system. Of course we knew that certain distant stars

46、 existed. But only recently did we learn that several of them are orbited by their own planets. M: Why did it take so long to locate these planets? W: You have to understand that they are a billion times dimmer than their parent stars. It would be like trying to see the light of a candle next to a h

47、uge explosion. M: But the astronomers didnt see the planets through a telescope, how did they find them? W: By a very indirect method which cannot be described here with one or two words. M: There is a powerful new telescope being built in Arizona. Will that help them see these planets? W: They shou

48、ld be able to see them at least in the form of small spots of light, and then the scientist will be able to break down and analyze this light. By doing this, they hope to learn about the chemical composition of these planets. M: Im looking forward to hearing more when the telescope is in operation.

49、And Im sure our readers will be interested in it, too. 22 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 这道题的难点是选 C还是 D，因为 A中的 for the astronomy class和 B中的 to do some research work与原文信息不符。当我们将范围缩小到 CD之后，首先找到它们之间的差异，再根据细节加以权衡。通过再次体会原文，可以发现， D中的 learn about the latest development是错误信息。 23 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 信息来自于： last month。 24 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 surface， temperature都有所涉及；这个科学家说有了天文望远镜就使得这些星球看起来像 spots of light，这并不是就因此可以说它们就是 spots of light，而是借助于它，可以分析它们的化
