【題目】Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

A pen has always been a(n) 1 tool when it comes to taking exams. However, in this digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past.

Cambridge University in Britain is considering ending 800 years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops or ipads to take exams instead.

The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that students’ handwriting is becoming too hard to recognize. The 2 in being able to write neatly could largely be down to the 3 on laptops in lectures and elsewhere.

“There has definitely been a(n) 4 trend. It is difficult for both the students and the examiners as it is harder and harder to read these scripts," Sarah Pearsall, a senior lecturer at the university, told The Telegraph.

As a result, more and more students with poor handwriting are being 5 to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud to university administrators

However, some 6 the move, fearing the handwritten word would become a lost art. Tracy Trussell, a handwriting expert at the British Institute of Graphologists, 7 Cambridge to " make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures". She told The Telegraph that writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better.

Meanwhile, there are also concerns that primary and secondary schools could follow Cambridge's example

In fact, a similar plan was carried out for some first- and second-year students at Edinburgh University in the UK in 2011, reported The Scotsman. Senior officials at the university believed it was 8 to expect students to use pens and paper during exams when most of their coursework was done using computers.

The move also echoes the opinions of Harvard professor Eric Mazur, known as the father of the" flipped classroom(翻轉(zhuǎn)課堂). He believes that the rise of mobile Internet 9 means that we live in an age in which we don’t need to memorize anything Students should be tested on their creative and 10 skills, rather than the ability to remember information, he said during the Times Higher Education World Academic Summit in September.

I work for an e-commerce Website. If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary. It seems to me that mass e-mail is appropriate for good or neutral news, rather than making a correction. Do you agree? Moreover, if you were the recipient of the correction, how would you respond?

The only people who should be included in an e-mail are those who need to know or respond. Including everyone is rude and unprofessional as well as annoying to recipients. It’s not like we don’t have enough in our inbox already. I don’t agree that e-mail is only for good or neutral news, however. Sometimes you need to alert people or create a record of bad news. But no one should use e-mail to blame other people. If you’ve got a problem with someone, pick up the phone or take it outside (for a coffee, not a fist fight…geez). As for how to respond, e-mail is usually ineffective for resolving conflict. Have a conversation with the sender and explain why his or her approach isn’t the best and what you recommend.

It’s the start of a new year and I believe it’s time for a change. What’s the best way to explain to a prospective employer that you are in need of something new without seeming flighty and without complaining about your current employer?

The new year is as good a time as any to take stock, but not the only reason for making a change. At least, that’s not what you communicate to a prospective employer. Your reason for looking for a new job is less important to your new employer than why you want to work there. Needing a change might be the catalyst(催化劑), but the job search is like dating, and you wouldn’t ask someone out and explain you’re just bored in your current relationship, right? At least I hope not, otherwise you’re likely to be as lonely as Barry Manilow sounds when he sings “It’s Just Another New Year’s Eve”.

1What is discussed in the first letter?

A.How to ask questions in a polite way.B.How to respond to a false charge.

C.How to make a correction at work.D.How to handle rude mass emails at work.

2According to Greg, expressing your dissatisfaction with your present job in an interview would be the same as __________.

A.talking about your family issues in public

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源: 題型:

【題目】 The tall manchineel tree that is native to the Caribbean, Florida, South America, Central America and the Bahamas, looks particularly attractive. But you may be wise to notice the warning given that the tree holds the Guinness World Record for “the world’s most dangerous tree”.

The deadliness begins with the sweet-smelling fruit. As British radiologist Nicola Strickland and her friend discovered, even a single bite of the green apple-like produce can lead to hours of suffering. The scientist says within minutes of eating the fruit, she and her friend experienced “a strange peppery feeling” in their mouths. A few hours later, the two could barely swallow any solid food. Fortunately, the symptoms started to reduce after about eight hours and the fruit did not cause any long-term damage.

Many plants have poisonous bark and leaves to prevent grass-eating animals. However, the fruits are usually edible allowing animals to feed on them or carry seeds to help with reproduction. But since the manchineel fruits are largely transported by ocean tides, the tree does not need help to reproduce.

The tree’s thick and milky white sap (樹(shù)液) is equally dangerous. Contact with the skin can lead to symptoms that range from headaches to respiratory(呼吸) problems. Exposure to the eye can even cause “temporary painful blindness”. Given that the sap’s most dangerous toxin is highly water soluble, experts advise not using the tree for shade during a rain shower, as raindrops carrying the sap could easily burn your skin.

The fear has resulted in almost destroying the tree in Florida where it is on the list of endangered species. While removing it altogether may seem like the logical solution, experts argue that the manchineel trees are important for local ecosystems. In addition to protecting against ocean winds, the dense manchineel trees also prevent ocean erosion in Central America. The tree’s wood is very popular with Caribbean carpenters who have learned to neutralize its poisonous sap by drying the bark in the sun. In Central and South America, the locals use the bark to treat body swelling caused by injury and infection.

1Which of the following best explains “edible” underlined in Paragraph 3?

A.Fit to eat.B.Easy to pick.C.Hard to find.D.Nice to look at.

2Which of the following about the manchineel tree is true?

A.Its fruits taste sweet.

B.It reproduces by ocean tides.

C.Your eyes may be blind at the sight of it.

D.You have difficulty breathing in its shade.

3What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph?

A.The medical use of the manchineel trees.

B.The important role of the manchineel trees.

C.The urgent need of protecting the manchineel trees.

D.The way of removing poisonous sap from the trees.

4Which of the following can best show the structure of the passage?

A.B.C.D.
