单选题Passage2The way people work has changed. The increasing use of technology presents new and continual challenges to small and large businesses，employees and managers，teachers and students.Everyone，it seems，is being affected by the technological revolution. Store clerks，for example，now use increasingly complex computerized cash registers，while university professors must learn to adapt their teaching skills in order to lead distance learning course.In today's world，training and learning do not stop when we finish school；they must now continue throughout our working lives. The Hong Kong government conducted a survey on the employment concerns，and training needs of its workforce. For many managers and other professionals the biggest challenge，as well as change，in the workplace，was the increased use of computers and computerized machinery or equipment. The need for experienced employees who could use this kind of equipment rose drastically. Many of those in the workplace at this time experienced changes in job requirements and had to attend job-related training or re-training courses.The changing work environment is also affecting education and how we learn. In Finland, a report on strategies for education and training in the information age discussed the changing roles of both teacher and student. With the increased use of technology and the growth of distance learning, the teacher has become more of a tutor who guides a student, rather than a lecturer. In turn, the student has to take more responsibility for his or her learning in the absence of direct teacher contact. The report also stressed that high school and university students should learn computer skills in order to cope with the demands of the future workplace.The Finnish report also highlighted the need for teacher training, and re-training, and suggested that the salaries and job descriptions of teachers be reviewed because of future demands expected in their jobs. Previously university professors may have held lectures between the weekday hours of 9:00A.M. and 5:00 P.M. in large halls filled with students. Now, they may spend part of their day lecturing larger groups of students on campus, and then conduct afternoon or evening classes online, with students in five different countries.As technologies grow and develop, ongoing training will continue to be necessary. To be successful in the workplace, people will not stop learning when they leave school-lifelong learning will become a way of life.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AWith growth of distance learning, students can learn in the absence of direct teacher contact.BNow professors in Finland may conduct classes online with students in different countries.COngoing training and learning has become an important part of our working lives.DAs technology advances，all the job requirements and descriptions should be reviewed.

共用题干第三篇Preserve the EnvironmentThroughout history man has changed his physical environment in order to improve his way of life.With the tools of technology he has altered many physical features of the earth.He has transformed woodlands into farmland,and made lakes and reservoirs out of rivers for irrigation purposes or hydroelectric power. Man has also modified the face of the earth by draining marshes and cutting through mountains tobuild roads and railways.However,man's changes to the physical environment have not always had beneficial results.Today, pollution of the air and water is an increasing danger to the health of the planet.Each day thousands of tons of gases come out of the exhausts of motor vehicles;smoke from factories pollutes the air of industrialized areas and the surrounding areas of countryside.The air in cities is becoming increasingly unhealthy.The pollution of water is equally harmful.In the sea,pollution from oil is increasing and is killing enor- mous numbers of algae（水藻）,fish and birds.The whole ecological balance of the sea is being changed. The same problem exists in rivers.Industrial wastes have already made many rivers lifeless.Conservationists believe that it is now necessary for man to limit the growth of technology in order to sur-vive on earth.The purpose of the writer is___________.A:to reduce modern technologyB:to improve man's way of lifeC:to warn people not to change the natural environmentD:to call attention to the protection of the natural environment
共用题干The Industrial Age and EmploymentThe industrial age has been the only period of human history in which most people's work has taken the form of jobs.The industrial age may now be coming to an end,and some of the changes in work patterns which it brought about may have to be reversed.This seems a daunting（大胆的）thought. But, in fact, it could offer the prospect of a better future for work.Universal employment,as its history shows,has not meant economic freedom.Employment became widespread when the enclosures of the 17th and 18th centuries made many people dependent on paid work by depriving（剥夺）them of the use of the land,and thus of the means to provide a living for themselves.Then the factory system destroyed the cottage industries and removed work from people's homes.Later,as transport improved, first by rail and then by road, people commuted（乘车往返）longer distances to their places of employment until,eventually,many people's work lost all connection with their home lives and the places in which they lived.Meanwhile,employment put women at a disadvantage.In pre-industrial times,men and women had shared the productive work of the household and village community.Now it became customary(惯例的）for the husband to go out to paid employment, leaving the unpaid work of the home and family to his wife.Tax and benefit regulations still assume this norm today,and restrict more flexible sharing of work roles between the sexes.It was not only women whose work status suffered.As employment became the dominant form of work,young people and old people were excluded-a problem now,asmore teenagers become frustrated at school and more retired people want to live active lives. All this may now have to change.The time has certainly come to switch some efforts and resources away from the utopian（乌托邦的）goal of creating jobs for all, to the urgent practical task of helping many people to manage without full-time jobs. Now is the time to handle the issue of employment in a practical manner.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned
