Will Nanfang University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen announce a new beginning for China’s higher education reform? It’s too early to answer. But its presence is challenging the Ministry of Education. Even without the approval of the ministry it seems that the school is determined to move forward and enroll 50 students, so-called child prodigies(奇才), to begin classes on March l, 2011.On graduating in 2015, these students will receive a diploma unauthorized by the Ministry of Education----unlike the students of their age from the state-run universities.

The school is committed to modeling itself on Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, but if the government will not approve the school, the situation could cause a lot of trouble for those 50 students if they want to do graduate studies at other higher learning institutions. Other schools could turn their applications down for their unauthorized diplomas.

The difficulties, however, have not frightened students and their parents away. On Dec.18, 2010 more than 1,000 students and their parents visited Nanfang University of Science and Technology for interviews.

Private investment marks the school out from other higher learning institutions in the nation. Not a penny comes from the government. So the government will have no voice in how the school will be run.

The Ministry of Education has published a comprehensive plan for education reform and development between 2011 and 2020.The goal is to make China’s higher education internationally competitive. To accomplish this goal, the government should have the courage to let the educators who have big ideas try them out. The ministry should have applauded the independence. The school in Shenzhen has shown and encouraged more to do likewise.

Education reform in China has reached a new and crucial stage. Nanfang University of Science and Technology has a long way to go to prove itself competitive rather than a diploma mill.

A．they believe that the school will have a bright future

【解析】

試題分析：本文是一則新聞報(bào)道。深圳南方科技大學(xué)自主招生50名奇才學(xué)生，向中國(guó)教育部發(fā)起了挑戰(zhàn)。

1.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容可知，如果政府不支持該校的做法，這50名學(xué)生的處境就相當(dāng)麻煩。其他學(xué)校將因其非官方的畢業(yè)證而拒絕他們的入學(xué)申請(qǐng)。但這些困難并沒(méi)有嚇到學(xué)生和家長(zhǎng)。這說(shuō)明，他們認(rèn)為該校會(huì)有光明的前景。A項(xiàng)表述符合文意，故選A。

2.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段的“Other schools could turn their applications down for their unauthorized diplomas.”可知C項(xiàng)表述符合文意，其他三項(xiàng)均與文意不符，故選C。

3.D 觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第五段的最后三句“To accomplish this goal, the government should have the courage to let the educators who have big ideas try them out. The ministry should have applauded the independence. The school in Shenzhen has shown and encouraged more to do likewise.”可知作者認(rèn)為，政府應(yīng)當(dāng)有勇氣讓教育家進(jìn)行大膽的嘗試。再根據(jù)最后一段的內(nèi)容可知，中國(guó)的教育改革已經(jīng)進(jìn)入了一個(gè)關(guān)鍵性的新階段。南方科技大學(xué)將證明它比文憑制作工廠更具有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力。這一切都說(shuō)明，作者認(rèn)為南方科技大學(xué)的自主招生或許有益于教育改革。D項(xiàng)表述準(zhǔn)確地表達(dá)了作者的觀點(diǎn)。故選D。

4.A 標(biāo)題歸納題。A高校招生的新模式；B中國(guó)的教育改革；C仿效香港大學(xué)；D官方的還是非官方的。本文主要介紹了南方科技大學(xué)的自主招生的情況，A項(xiàng)表述概括了文章的大意，可以作為本文的標(biāo)題。其他三項(xiàng)表述的只是文中的細(xì)節(jié)，不能作為文章的標(biāo)題。故選A。

Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.

Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.

Since 1960 a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip (硅芯片). It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it?

Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now? What will the world be like two million years from now?

1.From paragraph 1, we can know ________.

A. why early human beings cut skin from dead animals

B. how early human beings discovered the tools

C. what early human beings used the tools for

D. what food early human beings stored

2.The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ________.

A. was very important to the development of mankind

B. led to the invention of machines in the early time

C. developed cooking abilities of mankind

D. was one of the first tools of mankind

3.The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to ________.

A. show the changes of tools

B. introduce a new kind of tool

C. give an example of using tools

D. compare the effects of two kinds of tools

4.At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is ________.

A. out of order B. less colorful

C. hard to predict D. full of meanings

The only survivor of one of the two Sandy Hook Elementary School first-grade classrooms where Adam Lanza shot and killed 20 children tricked the gunman by playing dead, the girl’s pastor （牧師） said．

“She ran out of the school building covered from head to toe with blood and the first thing she said to her mom was, “Mommy, I’m OK but all my friends are dead” Pastor Jim Solomon told ABC News’ Lara Spencer this weekend．

“Somehow, at that moment, by God’s grace, she was able to act as she was already dead．” he said．

The girl, a 6-year-old whose name is not being announced for privacy （隱私） reasons, was the first student to appear from the lockdown （封鎖） at Sandy Hook, Solomon said．He said the young girl described the shooter to her mom in a way that only a young child can．

“Well, she saw someone who she felt was angry and someone she felt was very mad,” Solomon said．“I think it’s impossible without the help of God．She has wisdom beyond her years, for sure’’．

Of the 20 children killed on Friday, eight were boys and l2 were girls．Six staff members, all female, were also killed．The gunman, whose mother was also killed by him before he went to the schoo1 classrooms, was found dead at the present spot．

“The mom told me — and I thought this was very insightful （有深刻見(jiàn)解的） — that she was suffering from what she felt was survivor’s guilt because so many of her friends no longer have their children but she has hers,” Solomon said how the girl’s mother and father are handling the trauma （傷害）．“I don’t know whether I would have the type of faith that they have if the same thing happened to me．”

1.How did the girl manage to avoid being shot?
