7．Leanne is one of the students studying through online degree programs．She chose to study online for many of the same reasons that other students do．She was working full-time，and did not want to move away from her job and family to continue her education．Leanne liked that she was able to study whenever and however much she wanted．
But while the program met her needs at first，Leanne felt there were things she did not get from studying online．Later，she earned her undergraduate degree from a traditional，face-to-face study program at Thomas Jefferson University．
Leanne says physically being in a classroom helps build a strong connection between students and their professors．In some ways she liked taking control and leading her own studies．But many times，she also felt lost without that special connection．
In addition，it may not be just a student's learning that suffers in a distance learning program．
There is some concern about what future employers think about an online degree，too．
Some employment specialists from Public Agenda，a nonprofit research organization，believe that students in online programs learn less than those in traditional programs and online programs are easier to complete．
Some employers may have limited understanding of what is possible through an online program．
However，until there are widely accepted standards for online programs as there are for traditional ones，crkical opinions will likely remain．
Also，there appears to bc a barrier for online programs becoming more widely accepted．If more well-known，high quality schools start offering such programs，employers will likely consider the two methods as equal．But the high cost to create high quality online programs suggests this will not be easy．
Today，more students are choosing online college programs over traditional programs every year．
But there is still a long way to go before online and traditional programs operate on the same level．

24．What's the passage mainly about？C
A．Leanne's experience to learn online．
B．The popularity of online degree programs．
C．The limitations of distance learning programs．
D．The standards for online education．
25．Why did Leanne choose to study at Thomas Jefferson University？B
A．Because she didn't want to move away from home．
B．Because she preferred the classroom atmosphere．
C．Because she could decide when and what to learn．
D．Because she didn't have time to attend online courses．
26．Which statement about online degree programs may employers agree with？A
A．Generally accepted criteria should be made．
B．They are highly recommended for students．
C．They are difficult to complete．
D．The prices of them should be raised．
27．What's the writer's attitude towards online degree programs？A
A．Objective．B．Critical．C．Favorable．D．Indifferent．

4．One of India's great economic advantages is the relative youth of its population．By 2020 it will become the world's youngest country，with 64% of its people at working age．To make the most of this advantage，India's children need to be educated．
On paper，India is doing well．The country has a nationwide network of state primary schools funded by an earmarked（指定的） tax．Some 96% of children aged 6-14go to school，even in rural areas．That's well above the average for the developing world and their attendance is good．But attainment is poor；  three-quarters of third-graders can't read a grade-one text and 53% of grade-five kids can't read at the standard they should have achieved at grade two．Levels of achievement are almost as bad in maths．
"The main problem in India is not enrollment（入學(xué)人數(shù)） or whether there is a local school；it's the delivery of education---the way teaching is done or not done，"says Vinati Sukhdev，executive director of Pratham，a charity that campaigns for better education in India．According to Ms Sukhdev，the country's teachers are the third-best-paid in the world but they're poorly trained and are often absent---it's not uncommon for them to hold a second job outside school．Teacher attendance at primary level is only 85%，according to Pratham research and there is little punishment for those who don't turn up．
Because more than 30% of India's state primary schools are tiny establishments with just 60or even fewer pupils---rising to 60%in the far north and north east---the absence of a teacher is likely to mean that there is no learning that day．
The government knows that state schooling needs improving．In 2009，it passed the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act or the Right to Education （RTE） Act，a law for the national provision of free，child-friendly education．It says that there should be two teachers for every 60 students and that they should go to work regularly，get there on time，follow the curriculum，assess how well the children are learning and meet regularly with parents．
There has been some progress，though from a low base．According to Ms Sukhdev，45% of schools agree with the pupil/teacher ratios（比率），up from 39% in 2010，when the law took effect．Infrastructure is improving too．Two-thirds of state primaries now have a working toilet．
"What we need to do next is improve accountability（責(zé)任），"says Ms Sukhdev．Schools have management committees that are supposed to include parent and local government representatives．"But they don't work or people don't know they exist．"Pratham tries to help local communities and parents drive improvement．"You should see the kind of reaction we get when they realize the teacher is paid but isn't turning up!"says Ms Sukhdev．"We can't be everywhere，so we limit ourselves to working in a few districts，where we can create model schools．Then we try to work together with local governments to make sure every school in the district or state is raised to that level．"the Read India program was launched by Pratham in 2007and now it has created an easy-to-use teaching and assessment pack called Learning to read．It has trained teachers in how to use the pack in school and shown community health workers，volunteers and parents how it could support learning outside school．The program has now run across 19 states，involving 450，000 volunteers and training 600，000 teachers and government workers．Among the 33m children who have participated，the number of those who can read simple sentences has risen by 20%．
For Ms Sukhdev，the success of Read India underlines the need to find ideas that can be replicated（復(fù)制）．According to the UNESCO money and attendance level are important---but it's the quality of education delivered that really matters．

66．What problem with India's education does Paragraph 2 show？A
A．India's efforts in education are not well rewarded．
B．India's primary schools lack financial support．
C．Kids hardly attend school in India rural areas．
D．India third-graders often read grade-one texts．
67．According to the passage，the RTE Act is mainly toD．
A．improve teachers'teaching skills
B．offer students many more courses
C．set up a teacher-friendly education
D．regulate teachers'teaching behavior．
68．The underlined words"that level"in paragraph 7 refer toA．
A．the educational level of model schools

18．In many countries，schools have long summer holidays，with shorter holidays in between．However，a new report suggests shortening school holidays to stop children forgetting what they have learnt during the long summer break．Instead of three school terms，it says，there should be five eight-week terms．And there should be just four weeks off in the summer，with a two-week break between the other terms．
    Sonia Montero has two c hildren at primary school and works full-time．She supports the idea．"The kids，"she says，"have much longer holidays than me and I can't afford to take several weeks off work，so I need someone to take care of them．But nobody wants the work in the summer months-they all have holidays of their own．"
    Not surprisingly，some young people disagree．Student Jason Panos says"It's a stupid idea．I would hate staying at school in the summer．It's unfair，too．The people who suggest this had long school holidays when they were young，but now they want to stop us enjoying the summer．The kids in Spain and America have much longer holidays than here，but they don't forget everything they've learnt in a few months．"
    Nadia Salib agrees．"Sure，"she says，"the first week at school after the summer is never easy，but you soon get back into it．The real problem round here is that kids get bor ed after so many weeks out of school，and then some of them start causing trouble．But the answer is to give them something to do，not make everyone stay in school longer．"
29．Why is Sonia in support of shorter school holidays？D
A．She doesn't get any summer holidays in her job．
B．She is worried that her children will forget what they've learnt．

16．Scientists in Israel have discovered a new way to test for water pollution by"listening"to what the plants growing in water have to say．
By shining a laser beam （激光束） on the tiny pieces of algae floating in the water，the researchers said they hear sound waves that tell them the type and amount of contamination （致污物） in the water．
"It is a red light，telling us that something is beginning to go wrong with the quality of water，"said Zvy Dubinsky，an aquatic biologist （水生生物學(xué)家） at Israel's Bar Ilan University．"Algae is the first thing to be affected by a change in water quality．""The secret，"he said，"is to measure the rate of photosynthesis （光合作用） in the algae，meaning the plant's ability to transform light into energy．"During photosynthesis，plants also release oxygen into the air．
Dubinsky's technique is easy to perform because of the over-abundance （過(guò)于豐富） of algae in the planet's water．Most of the oxygen in the atmosphere comes from algae．A prototype tester （樣本測(cè)試機(jī)）that occupies about one square meter of a laboratory desktop，shoots a laser beam at water samples to stimulate （刺激） photosynthesis in the algae．But not all of the laser's heat is used．Depending on the condition of the algae and the rate of photosynthesis，some of the heat is shot back into the water，creating sound waves，Dubinsky said．With a special underwater microphone，researchers are able to analyze the strength of the sound waves and determine the health of the algae and the condition of the surrounding water．
"Algae suffering from lead poisoning，like waste discharged from battery and paint manufacturing plants，will produce a different sound than those suffering from lack of iron or exposure to other toxins，"said researcher Yulia Pinchasov．She said that testing algae photosynthesis can determine water quality more accurately and easily than labor-intensive methods now used like chemical and radioactive carbon testing．

5．The underlined word"algae"in Paragraph 2probably refers to a kind ofA．
A．plant              B．instrument           
C．wood               D．pollutant
6．Why is the algae tested？B
A．Because it floats on the water．
B．Because it is the first to be polluted．
C．Because it can have photosynthesis．
D．Because it can produce different sounds．
7．We can infer from the passage thatC．
A．a(chǎn)lgae can produce a loud sound when polluted
B．a(chǎn)lgae can die easily from pollution
C．photosynthesis of the algae is related to water quality
D．photosynthesis of the algae can only be caused by sunlight
8．What would be the best title for the passage？D
A．The Problem of Chemical and Radioactive Carbon Testing
B．A Prototype Tester Is Used to Determine Water Pollution
C．The Importance of Photosynthesis of the Algae
D．Scientists Listen to Plants to Find Water Pollution．
