When the papers were 【B2】 she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the 【B3】 mistakes throughout the test.There is nothing really new about 【B4】 in exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs. ONeill 【B5 】 even say a word about it. She on

Instead, she wrote on the blackboard the 【B9】 words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to 【B10 】 these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.I dont 【B1

Thirty years after being 【B14】 to Macaulays words, they 【B15】 seem to me the best yardstick(准绳),because they give us a 【 B16】 to measure ourselves rather than others.【B17 】 of us are aske

22、students.Aimed at stopping colleges from overcharging students, the plan has been welcome by the public and the press.“The late announcement should be congratulated,“ said an opinion from newspapers. “In the past, university students education costs have always been an enigma(迷).“It is known that ma
23、ny universities are overstaffed, which brought about lots of administrative spending.“It is obviously unreasonable to include such outlays(costs) into students education costs. Also, most of the universities are excessively keen on campus expansion, even beyond their economic capability.“According t
24、o a blue paper presented by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Chinas institutes of higher learning have so far borrowed a total of 150 to 200 billion yuan in loans front banks.“Will such an large sum of debt be taken for students education expenses?“Even if education costs are accurately calcu
25、lated, another problem emerges: How to share them between government and individuals?“According to Yuan Guiren, vice-minister of education, the proportion (比例) shouldered by an individual student should be kept within 25 per cent.“However, the sharp increase of tuition fees over the past two years,
26、indicates the proportion has not been strictly implemented. It is estimated that university students pay are half of their education costs.“55 Which of the following is the best title for this article?（A）The Problems of Chinese Universities.（B） Chinese Students Pay for Universities Expansion.（C） A S
27、tandard Plan.（D）How to Share Between Government and Individuals.56 The reason of the increasing university fees may be that _.（A）universities have too many staff（B） universities, with heavy debt and too many staff, are keen on campus expansion（C） universities have borrowed heavy loans（D）universities

29、gation (FBI) showed up at Brandon Mayfields law office and arrested him in connection with the March 2004 bombing of a train station in Madrid(马德里), Spain. The Oregon lawyer was a suspect (嫌犯)because several experts had matched one of his fingerprints to a print found near the scene of the terrorist
30、 attack.But Mayfield was innocent (清白的). When the truth was found 2 weeks later, he was set free from jail. Still, Mayfield had suffered unnecessarily(受罪), and hes not alone.Police officers often use fingerprints successfully to catch criminals. However, according to a recent study by criminologist(
31、犯罪学家) Simon Cole of the University of California, Irvine, authorities may make as many as 1,000 incorrect fingerprint matches each year in the United States.“The cost of a wrong decision is very high,“ says Anil K. Jain, a computer scientist at Michigan State University in East Lansing.Jain is one o
32、f a number of researchers around the world who are trying to develop improved computer systems for making accurate fingerprint matches. These scientists sometimes even engage in competitions in which they test their fingerprint-verification (核实) software to see which way works best.The work is impor
33、tant because fingerprints have a role not just in crime solving but also in everyday life. A fingerprint scan may someday be your ticket to getting into a building, logging on to a computer, withdrawing money from an ATM, or getting your lunch at school.58 The title of this article most probably is
34、_.（A）Fingerprint Evidence（B） Fingerprint and Computer（C） The Mistakes of Fingerprinting（D）Fingerprint Matching59 Which of the following sentences is true according to this article?（A）The Oregon lawyer was arrested because his fingerprints were found near the scene of the terrorist attack.（B） What ha
35、ppened to Brandon Mayfield also happened to some other people.（C） Police officers often use fingerprints successfully to catch the very criminals they wanted.（D）A fingerprint scan have already been a ticket for an individual to get into a building.60 “The cost of a wrong decision is very high“ means
36、 that _.（A）the government pays a lot of money to computer scientist（B） fingerprints have a role not just in crime solving but also in everyday life（C） the catching of the terrorists is rather expensive（D）the suffering of the incorrect suspect is great and the government should be responsible for it6
37、1 The technology of fingerprints _.（A）will be used widely in peoples work and life（B） always works（C） are used to help scientists to compete in their computer researches（D）helped the FBI to keep track of the terrorist of the March 2004 bombing at a train station in Madrid62 Do you ever feel like the
38、 weather is out to get you? All week long, it seems, you sit inside at school while the sun shines outside. Then, as soon as the weekend comes, the sky turns gray. Theres rain in the forecast.In some ways, you may be right. Weekend weather differs from weekday weather in certain places, say research
39、ers who studied more than 40 years of weather data from around the world. They focused on temperature differences between daytime highs and nighttime lows. This difference measurement is called the daily temperature range, or DTR.Part of the study involved 660 weather stations in the continental Uni
40、ted States. At more than 230 of these sites, the average DTR for Saturday, Sunday, and Monday was different from the average DTR for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, the researchers found. The difference was small only several tenths of a Celsius degree-but the pattern was striking enough to make th
41、e scientists take notice.In the southwestern U. S., temperature ranges were typically broader on weekends. In the Midwest, weekdays saw larger daily temperature variations.This sort of weekly rise and fall doesnt line up with any natural cycles, the researchers say. Instead, they blame human activit
42、ies, possibly air pollution from those activities, for these weather effects. For example, tiny particles in the air could affect the amount of cloud cover, which would in turn affect daily temperatures.So, tiny windborne particles from California, generated on weekdays, might first affect weather c
43、lose to home in the southwest, then later influence midwestern weather.It looks like your weekend weather has a lot to do with which way the wind blows and where it comes from.62 It can be concluded that _.（A）the sky always turns gray only on weekends.（B） in the Midwest, weekdays saw larger daily te
44、mperature variations sometimes.（C） this difference measurement is called DTR, meaning the daytime temperature range.（D）part of the study involved 660 weather stations only in the United Nation.63 Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?（A）Weekday weather has a lot do with
45、which way the wind blows and where it comes from.（B） Though the DTR indifference was small, the pattern was worth of the scientists attention.（C） Possibly air pollution from natural activities should be blamed for the weather changes.（D）Tiny particles in the air of cloud cover and indeed could affec

47、 Which of the following can be the best title for this article?（A）Daytime Highs and Nighttime Lows.（B） The Average DTR Was Different.（C） Weekend Weather Really Is Different.（D）Theres Rain in The Forecast.66 A good nights sleep may help your brain permanently file away lessons learned during the day.
48、 But, according to a new study, the brain begins processing and storing those memories long before its time for bed-and continues to do so even while youre thinking about and doing other things.Recent studies have shown that the parts of the brain that we use to learn a task become active again duri
49、ng sleep. This activity, scientists suggest, could be the brain transferring memories from short-term to long-term storage.But the brain doesnt necessarily wait until the lights are out to begin processing those memories.To find out how the brain handles memories during waking hours, scientists gave 15 volunteers two tasks, each requiring different parts of the brain to learn. In one task, the subjects learned how to navigate a vir
