This brief book is aimed at high school shjeents , but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life. Its formal ,serious style closely matches its content ,a school-masterly bonnk on schooling .The author , W .H . Armstrong ,starts with the basics : reading and writing . In his opinion , reading doesn’t just mean recognizing each word on the page ; it means taking a sandwich and makes it a part of himself .The goal is to bring the information back to life , not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees . Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other ; in fact ,the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text .I’ve seen it again and again :some-one who can’t express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn’t read it at all. Only a thied of the bonk remains after that discussion ,which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages ,math , science and history . He generally handles these topics thoroughly(透彻地) and equally ,except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion(激情) regarding history to his students , that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across .to my disappointment , in this part of the book he ignores the arts .As a matter of fact ,they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do,though the study differs slightly in kind .Although it’s commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired ,actually ,learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics. My other comment is that the text aged. The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s---none of the references(参考文献)seem newer than the late 1950s. As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age. These are small points, though, and don’t affect the main discussion. I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student. 63. According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________. A. gain knowledge and expand one’s view B. understand the meaning between the lines C. experts ideas based on what one has read D. get information and keep it alive in memory 64. The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________. A. requires great efforts B. demands real passion C. is less natural than learning maths D. is as natural as learning a language 65. What is a shortcoming of Armstrong’s work according to the author? A. Some ideas are slightly contradictory. B. There is too much discussion on studying science. C. The style is too serious. D. It lacks new information. 66. This passage can be classified as________. A. an advertisement B. a book review C. a feature story D. A news report |
Businesses are witnessing a difficult time, which has in turn produced influence on consumers’ edsire to go green . However, shoppers are still laying stress on environmental concerns. Two thirds of customers say that environmental considerations inform their purchases to the same degree as they did a year ago, while more than a quarter say that they are now even better aware of the environmental effect on what they buy. This may help to influence how shops store goods on their shelves. And the companies should still make efforts to become more envitonmentally friendly. Two out of three people think it is important to buy from environmentally responsible companies,with about one in seven saying that they had even decided to take their custom elsewhere if they felt a company’s environmental reputation was not good enough. Harry Morrison, chief executive(主管)of the Carbon Trust, sympathizes:“I understand this situation where survival is very important now. But from environmental considerations, the clocd is ticking—we don’t have much time. In addition, cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a mediun-term benefit for the brand.” Larger companies have an extra motivation to look at reducing their carbon footprint, as new rules next year will require businesses bo buy carbon allowances to make up for their emissions(排放). Those that have taken early action will have a head start. More than two thirds of consumers are not clear about which companies are environmentally responsible. This suggests that firms that are able to relay clearly their message to the public will be in a pole position to attract shoppers. The Carbon Trust believes that it can help by informing customers about the good work companies are doing.“When companies are granted(授予)the standard, they can use a logo(标识)in all their marketing which makes it clear that they are working towards cutting emissions,”Mr.Morrison said. 64.What’s the main idea of the passage? A.Businesses are finding ways to send their message to the shoppers. B.Companies will soon get information about cutting carbon emissions. C.Firms are making efforts to encourage customers to keep goods at home. D.Firms are urged to cut carbon emissions by shoppers’environmental awareness. 65.The underlined word“inform”in Paragraph 2 probably means“ ”. A.affect B.change C.disturb D.reject 66.According to Harry Morrison, businesses . A.will benefit from cutting carbon emissions B.should buy carbon allowances for shoppers C.are required to make up for their carbon emissions D.have encouraged shoppers to take their custom elsewhere 67 .We can learn from the passage that businesses will . A.have a strong desire to reduce costs B.use the same logo in their marketing C.gain advantages by taking early action D.attract more shoppers by storing goods |
