13．（71）CIt is a new term in today's tourism industry．But in an age of growing environmental awareness，it is not too difficult for us to imagine and understand this new form of holiday．
Ecotourism，which is considered as a kind of responsible tourism，is typically defined（定義）as travel to places where special and unusual plants，animals and cultural heritages （遺產(chǎn)） are the main attractions．（72）BTherefore，programs concerning the protection of some natural and cultural spots also form'a part of ecotourism．
Ecotourism is developing at great speed．According to a recent report by the World Tourism Organization，ecotourism in recent years has enjoyed an annual growth of about 5% worldwide．（73）D They include bird watching，hiking，diving，photography and taking part in various kinds of local cultural events．
（74）FHowever，it looks like some smaller towns and country areas may well become the new destinations for people to visit tomorrow because they are rich in ecological，cultural and historical resources （資源）．
Ecotourism has been gaining increasing recognition and popularity mainly for the relaxing，natural and vivid experience it offers to tourists．People are attracted to nature  and long to be close to it．However，a conflict between nature and human beings is unavoidable．（75）G

A．The definition of ecotourism is beyond words．
B．It takes ecology and culture into consideration．
C．You may not be very familiar with"ecotourism"．
D．More than 80activities have been listed for ecotourism．
E．People can have great fun enjoying nature through ecotourism．
F．Big cities are still the major places．that attract tourists in our society today．
G．How to protect natural resources while taking advantage of them is of great importance．

分析 本文屬于文化類短文閱讀．主要介紹了對(duì)新詞語生態(tài)旅游的新理解，將生態(tài)和文化很好的結(jié)合了起來，要求我們認(rèn)識(shí)到在利用自然資源的同時(shí)保護(hù)它們是非常重要的．

解答 71-75 CBDFG
71．C．考查的是上下文的語境理解能力．根據(jù)下句"It is a new term in today's tourism industry"中的new term可知，此處指的是"新詞語"，所以選C，意思是"你也許對(duì)ecotourism這個(gè)詞不是很熟悉"．
72．B．考查的是上下文的語境理解能力．根據(jù)下句中的"programs concerning the protection of some natural and cultural spots"可知，這些項(xiàng)目涉及對(duì)一些景點(diǎn)的保護(hù)，故選B，意思是"它把生態(tài)和文化考慮在內(nèi)"，后句是對(duì)前句的進(jìn)一步解釋．
73．D．考查的是上下文的語境理解能力．根據(jù)下句"They include bird-watching，hiking，driving，photography and taking part in various kinds of local cultural events"可知，此處指的是生態(tài)旅游所包含的項(xiàng)目，所以上句應(yīng)是一個(gè)總體的說明，故選D．
74．F．考查的是上下文的語境理解能力．下文的However表示意思上的轉(zhuǎn)折，同時(shí)下句提到"some smaller towns and country areas"以及"new destinations for people to visit"，那么上句就應(yīng)該是與之進(jìn)行比較的內(nèi)容，故選F，意思是"當(dāng)今社會(huì)大城市仍然是吸引游客的主要地方"．
75．G．考查的是上下文的語境理解能力．該空前面講的是自然與人類之間的關(guān)系，所以這里應(yīng)該講"如何在利用自然資源的同時(shí)保護(hù)它們是非常重要的"．故選G．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 七選五是一類完成性閱讀．在題型上與完型填空很類似．解題時(shí)，要在理解文章整體的情況下，充分考慮語境和空格前后的句子，注意句子之間的邏輯關(guān)系，尤其要學(xué)會(huì)把握信息詞（選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)的與文章中相同或相近的詞），快速準(zhǔn)確的選出最符合文章原意的答案

3．Some US parents are sad that their high school children score badly in math，science and reading compared to kids in other countries．
There has been an endless series of mostly fruitless education reforms to address this gap．Now comes an approach based on the insights （觀念）of a group of US exchange students．They spent a year in some of the most successful high schools in the world-in Finland，Poland and South Korea．
Author and journalist Amanda Ripley followed three exchange students for her new book．The Smartest Kids in the World-and How They Got That Way．She argues that to improve academics．US schools should de-emphasize sports．
Instead，students should bring their passion and intensity （專注） to academics she concludes．
"High school in Finland，Korea and Poland had a purpose，just like high school football practice in America，"she writes．"There was a big，important contest at the end，and the score counted．"
Sports are a distraction，Ripley argues，and most countries require them to take place outside of school．
Trading in US school sports culture would be a huge change for people in the US，who respect teamwork and sportsmanship as training for life．But playing down sports could pay off，as it has elsewhere，if we redirect money，focus and glory to learning．
Ripley is critical of memorization in South Korean education，but she praises the system's high goals and the freedom its students have to fail and recover through hard work．
Too often，we don't ask teachers to give our kids harder assignments and we're quick to complain about a failing grade．What's working elsewhere is to set ambitious goals for kids，and then allow them to discover that they have it within themselves to reclaim （重獲）success from failure．
Each of the countries in Smartest Kids came to education reform after an economic crisis．Finland was losing jobs after graduating just 10percent of its teens from high school in the 1950s．Today，the graduation rate is 95percent．Poland's wakeup came in 1999，as students consistently tested below average in reading．
We've tried so many"reforms"in education．Maybe what we need is a in truly radical（激進(jìn)的） shift away from sports in favor of schooling．

55．According to Amanda Ripley，to reform the American education system，people shouldB．
A．a(chǎn)sk teachers to give students more homework
B．make sports less important at school
C．let American students experience failure at school
D．encourage parents to help their kids with math，science and reading
56．Which of the following statements about education in South Korea is TRUE according to the article？B
A．The memorization skills of South Korean students are the key to their academic success．
B．High academic scores are considered an important measure of education quality in South Korea．
C．South Korean teachers emphasize teamwork and sportsmanship as much as American teachers do．
D．South Korea started education reforms in the 1950s to improve students'reading skills．
57．The underlined phrase"trading in"probably meansB．
A．giving up （something） for something else
B．exchanging （something） for something else
C．ignoring
D．looking into
58．What is the author's attitude toward education reform in US high schools？D．
A．Indifferent．B．Puzzled．C．Satisfied．D．Supportive．

4．In the animal kingdom，weakness can bring about aggression in other animals．This sometimes happens with humans also．But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people．I see it every day when people hold doors for me，pour cream into my coffee，or help me to put on my coat．And I have discovered that it makes them happy．
From my wheelchair experience，I see the best in people，but sometimes I was sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily．
They don't get to see this soft side of others．Often，we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness，which includes a lot of pretending．But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them．
Last month，when I was driving home on a busy highway，I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual．People behind me began to get impatient and angry，with some speeding up alongside me，horning（按喇叭）or even shouting at me．At that moment，I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving．I put on the flashlights and drove on at a really low speed．
No more angry shouts and no more horns!
When I put on my flashlights，I was saying to the other drivers，"I have a problem here，I am weak and doing the best I can，"And everyone understood．Several times，I saw drivers who wanted to pass．They couldn't get around me because of the stream of passing traffic．But instead of getting impatient and angry，they waited，knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak．
Sometimes weakness calls for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way．But in fact，it would be better if we don't pretend to feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we're scared．

62．The author has discovered that people will feel happy whenC．
A．they feel others'kindness
B．they receive others'help
C．they offer their help
D．they show their weakness
63．What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights？D
A．They speed up to pass．
B．They put on their flashlights too
C．They tried their best to help．
D．They waited with patience．．
64．In this passage，the author advises us toA．
A．a(chǎn)dmit our weakness
B．a(chǎn)ccept help from others
C．handle problems by ourselves
D．show our bravery
65．Which of the following is the best title for the passage？C
A．A Wheelchair Experience．
B．Weakness and Strength
C．Weakness and Kindness．
D．A Driving Experience．

1．In England three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop．They studied the information on the post sign and decided which bus to take．About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along．They prepared to get on．Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way．Someone shouted  insulting words about the foreigners．The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about．The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed．No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus-stop is the first person to get on the bus．
Learning the language of a country isn't enough．If you want to ensure a pleasant visit，find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts．You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own．A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table．The left hand should be used for washing yourself．Also in India，You might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and consider that he is disagreeing．But in many parts of India shaking one's head means expressing agreement．Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty．In that country you shake your head to express"yes"-a nod means"no"．
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting，talking to someone，even at an important meeting．Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand，however，could cause offence （冒犯）．It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion．Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult-it's just not done．
Attitudes to women vary a lot around the world．In Japan，for example，it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home．
Knowing about customs and attitudes is useful when you are traveling，but you also need to know the language used to express different degrees of formality （禮節(jié)）．

41．The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed becauseC．
A．they didn't know the English language
B．the bus conductor told them to jump the queue
C．they didn't know the custom of lining up for a bus
D．they thought they were not respected
42．What's the meaning of the underlined word"insulting"in Para.1？D
A．generous    B．entertaining     C．misunderstanding    D．rude
43．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage？B
A．In Europe，using the left hand is considered less respected．
B．In India，the left hand is not used as a sign of respect to others．
C．In Thailand，you'd better cross your legs when sitting or talking．
D．In Japan，it is considered bad manners to touch the head of an adult．
44．The underlined sentence"Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty"means in BulgariaC．
A．you are probably thirsty if you nod your head
B．you're possibly eager to have a drink if you nod your head
C．you probably refuse to drink when you nod your head
D．you'd like to have a cup of tea because you nod your head
45．We can infer from the passage thatD．
A．in Asian countries，women are equal to men in every field
B．learning a language well is a necessity before going abroad

8．A son in many developing countries means insurance，who will inherit his father's property and help support the family．However，to parents，a daughter is just another expense．Her place is in the home，not in the world of men．A girl can't help but feel inferior when everything around her tells her that she is worth less than a boy．Her future is，to some extent，shaped as soon as her family limits her opportunities and treat her as second-rater，which explain why women in developing countries perform much worse than men both in study and career．
Deep discrimination （歧視）against women creates a firm force that keeps girls from living up to their full potential．It also leaves them victims to severe physical and emotional harm．These"servants of the household"come to accept that life will never be any different．What's most harmful，it results not only in millions of individual tragedies，but also in the lost potential for the entire country．Studies show there is a direct link between a country's attitude toward women and its social and economic progress．The status of women is central to the health of a society．If one part suffers，so does the whole．
To deal with the situation，many women turn to education．Educated women are essential to ending sex discrimination，starting by reducing the poverty The most basic skills in literacy and Maths open up opportunities for better-paying jobs for women．Uneducated women in rural areas of Zambia，for instance，are twice as likely to live in poverty as those who have had eight or more years of education．
Women who have had some schooling are more likely to get married later，survive childbirth，have fewer and healthier children，and make sure their own children complete school．Understanding the importance of hygiene （衛(wèi)生）and nutrition，they are more likely to stay in physical wellness．
Nevertheless，the comprehensive change for a society speaks for the more far-reaching meaning of women education．As women get the opportunity to go to school and obtain higher-level jobs，they gain status in their communities，which translates into the power to influence their families and societies．Such power may，together with other forces of outside interference，make even bigger changes possible and gradually lighten up women's fates in these countries．
 
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS．）
81．What two facts make a woman achieve less than men in developing countries？
Her family limiting her opportunities and treating her as second-rater
82．The most severe result of discrimination against women isthe lost potential for the entire country
83．Why are educated women in developing countries more likely to remain healthy？
Because they understand the importance of hygiene and nutrition
84．High social position at home helps women to have the ability toinfluence their families and societies．

5．An Open Letter to an Editor
I had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently-one who works for you．In fact，he's one of your best reporters．He wants to leave．
Your reporter gave me a copy of his résumé （簡歷） and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you．The headlines showed you played them proudly．With great enthusiasm，he talked about how he finds issues，approaches them，and writes about them，which tells me he is one of your best．I'm sure you would hate to lose him．
Surprisingly，your reporter is not unhappy．In fact，he told me he really likes his job．He has a great assignment，and said you run a great paper．It would be easy for you to keep him，he said．He knows that the paper values him．He appreciates the responsibility you've given him，takes ownership of his profession，and enjoys his freedom．
So why is he looking for a way out？
He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him．He wants to be pushed，challenged，coached to new heights．
The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions，but his editors usually ask how l ong the story will be，when it will be in，where it can play，and what the budget is．
He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones．He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out，exploring the best ways to report it．He wants to be more valuable for our paper．That's what you want for him，too，isn't it？
So your reporter has set me thinking．
Our best hope in keeping our best reporters，copy editors，photographers，artists-everyone-is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential．If we can't do it，they'll find someone who can．
 
17．What does the writer think of the reporter？C
A．Optimistic．
B．Imaginative．
C．Ambitious．
D．Proud．
18．What does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks？D
A．Finding the news value of his stories．
B．Giving him financial support．
C．Helping him to find issues．
D．Improving his good ideas．
19．Who probably wrote the letter？A
A．An editor．
B．An artist．
C．A reporter．
D．A reader．
