Practice 8　　For most people the word “education” means “school” and “school” conjures up an image of a building with classrooms. But what do people think of when they hear “literacy programmes”? Probably nothing.　　Living in illiteracy is such an unknown-even a little mysterious-experience.  Yet today nearly a billion people are illiterate, not to mendon the 113 million school-aged children who do not attend school. Wonderful progress has been made during the last half of the twentieth century in the field of education. But still the number of adult illiterates, particularly women, rises. This is now the challenge of the twenty-first century-the thorn in the side of efforts to achieve Education for All (EFA). It has become clear that Education for All cannot be possible without Literacy for All.　　However, tremendous strides have been made in literacy. How has this been possible? Who brought it about? The people behind literacy efforts must be congratulated for working against all odds to bring about this achievement. But where are they? Who are they? What are their tasks like? And their problems, challenges and rewards? What inspires them? What conditions do they work and live under?
参考答案和解析
正确答案： 【参考译文】
对大部分人来说,“教育”就意味着“学校”,而一提到“学校”,他们想到的就是大楼里一间间的教室。但当听到“扫盲计划”的时候,他们会想到什么呢?也许什么也没有。
文盲是怎样生活的?我们不知道;对我们来说,甚至还会感到有些神秘。但即使在今天,世界上还有10亿文盲,这个数字还不包括1. 13亿失学的学龄儿童。当然,20世纪后半叶,教育领域已取得了长足的进步。但成人文盲的人数,尤其是妇女文盲的人数却增加了。这是对21世纪的挑战——对我们实现“全民教育”计划的努力,无疑也是一个巨大的障碍。非常明显,没有“全民扫盲”,就不会有“全民教育”。
当然,扫盲工作已取得了巨大的成就。那么,这些成就是怎么取得的呢?是谁作出了这些成就的?我们必须赞扬那些为扫盲工作做出贡献的人,他们克服了种种困难才取得了这些成就。那么,他们这些人在哪儿呢?他们又是谁?他们是怎样工作的?他们会遇到些什么样的问题扣挑战?他们能取得多少报酬?是什么激励他们从事扫盲工作的?他们的工作条件和生活条件又是什么样的?

第4题：

Do you have any idea what you would like to be and do after graduation? A lot of people don′! begin thinking about careers until they reach junior or senior year, which, in my opinion, is too late.
When people are trying to decide what they want to do, it helps to know something they love. Ever since I was little, I′ve always been doing someone′s hair, make-up or nails, starting with Barbie dolls and progressing to humans. Over the years my family has really inspired me to do this and now I fix friends′ and family members′ hair for weddings, dances and other big events.
I have been thinking about what I would like to do for a career since middle school. I did some research and discovered that I might really enjoy being a cosmetologist, so I went to my hair stylist and asked her lots of questions about what it takes to reach her level and what she would recommend I do. I considered her advice and then did more research.
I used Aveda′ s website to get information on the Aveda Institute and what type of credit (贷款) I would need from high school to apply. I found their institute has three parts: theoretical knowledge, practical experience, and professional business-building skills. For the past few years, I have been looking at Aveda in more and more detail. This school not only offers cosmetology, but also massage therapy. I grew up in Minnesota (美国中北部的一个州), so I plan to apply to the institute in Minneapolis that several people have highly recommended. It helps students become "future industry leaders in hair care, skin care, makeup and total body wellness". It is affordable and everyone there is friendly and understanding.
Having done the groundwork and thinking about what I′d like to do after high school, I know that I will definitely pursue my dream of becoming a cosmetologist.
The author plans to apply to the institute in Minneapolis NOT because ___________.

A.the people there are good to others
B.some people advise him/er to do so
C.the institute is free of charge
D.the institute is helpful to his/her future

答案：C

第5题：

A

You may not realize it，but you are doing much more than just studying，when you are at school． School is also the place where you learn to get along well with people． But this is not al-ways easy． What can you do if you just don-t like one of your classmates? If you discover that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends，the most important thing to learn is tolerance(宽容)． Tolerance is the ability(能/J ) to realize and respect(尊重) the differences in others． We can not change the way that other people do，so it is important to learn to live happily with them．

Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other． Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently． Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad． Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind ．

You need to remember an old saying，"Treat others how you want to be treated"． You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates，so it is important to treat them kindly too．

If you tolerate(宽容) something，it does not mean that you have to like it． No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in． Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change．

It is important to practice tolerance，because it will make everyone's lives easier． Learn to accept(接受) people for their different abilities and interests． The world is very different，and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help you make a difference．

第6题：

When you think of the Internet, you probably think of ".com." Just what do those three letters at the end of a World Wide Web address mean? Every computer that hosts data on the Internet has a(71)numerical address. For example, the numerical address for the White House is 198.137.240.100. But since(72)people want to remember long strings of numbers, the(73)was developed. It is a critical part of the Internet's technical infrastructure, correlates a numerical address to a word. To(74)the White House website, you could type its numerical address into the address box of your web browser. But most people prefer to use "www. whitehouse. gov." In this case, the domain name is(75).

A．unique

B．isolated

C．similar

D．same


正确答案：A
解析：(71)～(75)当你想起因特网时，你可能就会想起“.com”。那么，这三个字母在万维网(WWW)中地址最后是什么含义呢?在因特网上，每一台主机都有一个独一无二的(unique)数字的地址。例如，白宫的数字地址就是198.137.240.100。但由于几乎没有(few)人希望记住很长的数字串，城名系统(DNS)就被开发出来了。它是因特网技术基础的重要组成部分，将数字与单词联系在一起。如果要访问(access)白宫的Web站点，你可以在你的浏览器的地址框中输入它的数字地址，但更多的人喜欢使用“www.whitehouse.gov”。在这种情况下，其域名是whitehouse.gov。

第7题：

第8题：

The sentence" We have people. . . down the road" ( Line 4, Paragraph 2)probably means

[ A] we have people calling us for parking space two years ahead of time.

[ B] people called us for permission to use the places two years ago.

[ C] we received calls from people down the road two years ago.

[D] people called us for school vacancies two years in advance.


正确答案：D
42.D该题为释义题。根据后一句“We have grandparents calling for pregnant daughters．”可知，有些家长会提前向私立学校咨询孩子入学的事情。因此可以推知“We have people calling us for spots two years down the road．”意为“有人提前两年就打电话咨询学校是否会有名额。”，故选D。

第三篇

No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world,but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million.The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.
In the United Kingdom,about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people.As we get older,many of us will become less mobile,hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.
Disablement can take many forms and happen at any time of life.Some people are born with disabilities.Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases.The longer time goes on,the worse they become.Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have disability in the form of a mental illness.All are affected by people's attitude towards them.
Disabled people face many physical barriers.Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends,imagine what would you do if you could not get up steps,or on to buses and trains?What would you do if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic?But there are other barriers:prejudice（偏见）can be even harder to break down and ignorance represents by far the greatest barrier of all.It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully understand what the disabled go through,so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability,not their disability,which counts.

The last word of the passage "counts" most probably means________.
A:is most important
B:is considered
C:is included
D:is numbered

答案：A
解析：
第一段第一句是该段的主题句。" No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world , but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million.”说明残疾人数量很多。
第四段第一句和第四句是该段主题句。" Disabled people face many physical barriers."',But there are other barriers:prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance represents by far the greatest barrier of all.”该段从实际困难和精神歧视两方面说明残疾人面临的障碍。
文章最后一句："...it is the individual person and their ability, not their disa-bility ,which counts.”大意是“······真正重要的是残疾人的独立人格及其能力，而不是其身体上的残疾。”
选项A、C都出现在第二段中。B是文章所呼吁的。文章最后一段说 "prejudice（偏见）can be even harder to break down and ignorance represents by far the greatest barrier of all"。残疾人所面临的障碍除了身体残疾外，还有人们的偏见和被人们忽视。所以选项D与原文不相符。
主旨题。文章首先叙述残疾人之多和各种残疾，进而从身体和精神两方面阐述残疾人面临的障碍，并指出精神方面的障碍是最难被打破的。因此，可以推论出作者告诫我们应该正确对待残疾人。

Why does the author think it′s too late for people to start thinking about careers in junior or senior year?

A.Because he/she began to think about them when very young.
B.Because many people are too old to learn.
C.Because a lot of people can't grasp the opportunity.
D.Because many people have little they love.

答案：A
解析：
