What, then, is a good education at the end of the twentieth century? Some educators suggest that it should include foreign languages and the study of foreign cultures；a mastery of English, including the ability to write and speak well, because communications have become all-important in the modern world. and also because “a person who doesn't speak and write Clearly doesn't reason clearly either” ; some knowledge of the social sciences(sociology, psychology)that deal with human relations and human problems；some basic knowledge of modem information systems, since the educated professionals of tomorrow will have to understand their machines. Is that all? “No, of course not. ”answer the educators, “We have not mentioned the two great building blocks of education：history and literature!”Is this truly the best modern education? Perhaps. But every educator would add or subtract a few subjects. And no matter what list of courses would be offered, it would not be approved by all. Not only do the professors have their own ideas on the matter, but the students have theirs' too. “I don't believe, ”protested a Harvard student when his university revised its programs, “I don't believe that colleges have the fight to define what an educated person is. ”But then, who has?
Have you heard about new compact Discs? They're the latest invention from Sony. A CD consists of a piece of aluminium coated with transparent plastic，12 cms across，for producing sound.It's similar to an ordinary record，except that it's read by a laser beam，and the information recorded on the aluminium is digital.The makers claim that a CD can reproduce the original sound perfectly，without any distortion or background hiss. As the system is computerized，there's no loss of quality between the studio master and the record you buy.Also，a CD is much tougher-than a vinyl(乙烯基)record，so it doesn't need such careful handling. Dust and dirt won't damage it，and as there's no contact between the laser and the disc, it will never wear out.

For any Englishman there can never be any discussion as to who is the world's greatest writer. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him：that of William Shakespeare.Every Englishman has some knowledge of his work. All of us use words and phrases from Shakespeare's writings that have become a part of the English-speaking people.Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand!There is probably no better way for a foreigner (or an Englishman!) to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare uses it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners), even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare's day.1). From the first two sentences of the passage we can conclude that ________.A. it can't be discussed about who is the world's greatest dramatistB. Shakespeare is regarded as the greatest writerC. Englishmen like to discuss about who is the world's greatest writerD. it can't be discussed about who is the world's greatest poet2). According to the passage many English words and phrases that we use today are from _____.A. EnglishmenB. English speaking peopleC. Shakespeare's worksD. ancient people3). To learn the richness of the English language, people should ______.A. write and read moreB. be glad to be a foreignerC. learn from an English manD. read Shakespeare's plays4). The author does not suggest beginners reading Shakespeare's plays probably because _____.A. only Englishmen can understand his playsB. some of English usage and the meaning of many words have changedC. the works are too difficult for a beginnerD. the works are for native speakers5).

共用题干A Good IdeaNo satisfactory way exists to explain how to form a good idea. You think about a problem until you're tired,forget it,maybe sleep on it,and then flash!When you aren't thinking about it,suddenly the answer arrives as a gift from the gods.Of course,all ideas don't occur like that but so many do,particularly the most important ones. They burst into the mind,glowing with the heat of creation.How they do it is a mystery,but they must come from somewhere.Let's assume they come from the"unconscious".This is reasonable,for psychologists use this term to describe mental processes,which are unknown to the individual.Creative thought depends on what was unknown becoming known.All of us have experienced this sudden arrival of a new idea,but it is easiest to examine it in the great creative personalities,many of whom experienced it in an intensified form and have written it down in their life stories and letters.One can draw examples from genius in any field,from religion,philosophy,and literature to art and music,even in mathematics,science,and technical invention,although these are often thought to depend only on logic and experiment.All truly creative activities depend in some degree on these signals from the unconscious,and the more highly insightful the person,the sharper and more dramatic the signals become.Only great writers often write down their great ideas in their life stories and letters.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned
共用题干What Makes a Soccer Player Great?Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world,but there have only been few play-ers who were truly great.How did these players get that way—was it through training and prac- tice,or are great players“born,not made”?First,these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past-players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate.In the history of soccer,only six countries have ever won the World Cup-three from South America and three from western Europe .There has never been a great national team-or a really great player-from North America or from Asia.Second,these players have all had years of practice in the game.
