Schools are not just a microcosm (缩影) of society; they mediate it too. The best seek to all
2、eviate the external pressures on their pupils while equipping them better to understand and handle the world outside - at once sheltering them and broadening their horizons. This is ambitious in any circumstances, and in a divided and unequal society the two ideals can clash outright(直接地). Trips tha
3、t many adults would consider the adventure of a lifetime - treks in Bomeo, a sports tour to Barbados - appear to have become almost routine at some state schools. Parents are being asked for thousands of pounds. Though schools cannot profit from these trips, the companies that arrange them do. Meanw
4、hile, pupils arrive at school hungry because their families can't afford breakfast. The Child Poverty Action Group says nine out of 30 in every classroom fall below the poverty line. The discrepancy is startlingly apparent. Introducing a fundraising requirement for students does not help, as bet
5、ter-off children can tap up richer aunts and neighbours. Probing the rock pools of a local beach or practising French on a language exchange can fire children's passions, boost their skills and open their eyes to life 's possibilities. Educational outings help bright but disadvantaged studen
6、ts to get better scores in A-level tests. In this globalised age, there is a good case for international travel, and some parents say they can manage the cost of a school trip abroad more easily than a family holiday. Even in the face of immense and mounting financial pressures, some schools have sh
7、own remarkable determination and ingenuity in ensuring that all their pupils are able to take up opportunities that may be truly life-changing. They should be applauded. Methods such as whole-school fundraising, with the proceeds(收益) pooled, can help to extend opportunities and fuel community spirit
8、. But 3,000 pounds trips cannot be justified when the average income for families with children is just over 30,000 pounds. Such initiatives close doors for many pupils. Some parents pull their children out of school because of expensive field trips. Even parents who can see that a trip is little mo
9、re than a party or celebration may well feel guilt that their child is left behind. The Department for Education 's guidance says schools can charge only for board and lodging if the trip is part of the syllabus, and that students receiving government aid are exempt from these costs. However, ma
10、ny schools seem to ignore the advice; and it does not cover the kind of glamorous, exotic trips, which are becoming increasingly common. Schools cannot be expected to bring together communities single-handed. But the least we should expect is that they do not foster divisions and exclude those who a
11、re already disadvantaged. 46. What does the author say best schools should do? A) Prepare students to both challenge and change the divided unequal society. B) Protect students from social pressures and enable them to face the world. C) Motivate students to develop their physical as well as intellec
12、tual abilities. D) Encourage students to be ambitious and help them to achieve their goals. 47. What does the author think about school field trips? A) They enable students from different backgrounds to mix with each other. B) They widen the gap between privileged and disadvantaged students. C) They
13、 give the disadvantaged students a chance to see the world. D) They only benefit students with rich relatives and neighbours. 48. What does the author suggest can help build community spirit? A) Events aiming to improve community services. B) Activities that help to fuel students' ingenuity. C)
14、Events that require mutual understanding, D) Activities involving all students on campus. 49. What do we learn about low-income parents regarding school field trips? A) They want their children to participate even though they don't see much benefit. B) They don't want their kids to participa
15、te but find it hard to keep them from going. C) They don't want their kids to miss any chance to broaden their horizons despite the cost. D) They want their children to experience adventures but they don't want them to run risks. 50. What is the author's expectation of schools? A) Bringi
16、ng a community together with ingenuity. B) Resolving the existing discrepancies in society. C) Avoiding creating new gaps among students. D) Giving poor students preferential treatment. Passage Two Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage. Rising temperatures and overfishing in the pris
17、tine(未受污染的) waters around the Antarctic could see king penguin populations pushed to the brink of extinction by the end of the century, according to a new study. The study's report states that as global warming transforms the environment in the world's last great wilderness, 70 percent of ki
18、ng penguins could either disappear or be forced to find new breeding grounds. Co-author Celine Le Bohec, from the University of Strasbourg in France, warned: “If there're no actions aimed at halting or controlling global warming, and the pace of the current human-induced changes such as climate
19、change and overfishing stays the same, the species may soon disappear.” The findings come amid growing concern over the future of the Antarctic. Earlier this month a separate study found that a combination of climate change and industrial fishing is threatening the krill(磷虾) population in Antarctic
20、waters, with a potentially disastrous impact on whales, seals and penguins. But today's report is the starkest warming yet of the potentially devastating impact of climate change and human exploitation on the Antarctic's delicate ecosystems. Le Bohec said: “Unless current greenhouse gas emis
21、sions drop, 70 percent of king penguins - 1.1 million breeding pairs - will be forced to relocate their breeding grounds, or face extinction by 2100.” King penguins are the second-largest type of penguin and only breed on specific isolated islands in the Southern Ocean where there is no ice cover an
22、d easy access to the sea. As the ocean warms, a body of water called the Antarctic Polar Front - an upward movement of nutrient-rich sea that supports a huge abundance of marine life - is being pushed further south. This means that king penguins, which feed on fish and kill in this body of water, ha
23、ve to travel further to their feeding grounds, leaving their hungry chicks for longer. And as the distance between their breeding, grounds and their fool prows, entire colonies could be wiped out. Le Bohec said: “The plight of the king penguin should serve as a warming about the future of the entire
24、 marine environment in the Antarctic. Penguins, like other seabirds and marine mammals, occupy higher levels in the food chain and they are what we call bio-indicators of their ecosystems.” Penguins are sensitive indicators of changes in marine ecosystems. As such, they are key species for understan
25、ding and predicting impacts of global change on Antarctic and sub-Antarctic marine ecosystems. The report found that although some king penguins may be able to relocate to new breeding grounds closer to their retreating food source, suitable new habitats would be scarce. Only a handful of islands in
26、 the Southern Ocean are suitable for sustaining large breeding colonies. 51. What will happen by 2100, according to a new study? A) King penguins in the Antarctic will be on the verge of dying out. B) Sea water will rise to a much higher level around the Antarctic. C) The melting ice cover will dest
27、roy the great Antarctic wilderness. D) The pristine waters around the Antarctic will disappear forever. 52. What do we learn from the findings of a separate study? A) Shrinking krill population and rising temperatures could force Antarctic whales to migrate. B) Human activities have accelerated clim
28、ate change in the Antarctic region in recent years. C) Industrial fishing and climate change could be fatal to certain Antarctic species. D) Krill fishing in the Antarctic has worsened the pollution of the pristine waters. 53. What does the passage say about king penguins? A) They will turn out to b
29、e the second-largest species of birds to become extinct. B) Many of them will have to migrate to isolated islands in the Southern Ocean. C) They feed primarily on only a few kinds of krill in the Antarctic Polar Front. D) The majority of them may have to find new breeding grounds in the future. 54.
30、What happens when sea levels rise in the Antarctic? A) Many baby king penguins can't have food in time. B) Many king penguins could no longer live on kill. C) Whales will invade king penguins' breeding grounds. D) Whales will have to travel long distances to find food. 55. What do we learn a
31、bout the Southern Ocean? A) The king penguins there are reluctant to leave for new breeding grounds. B) Its conservation is key to the sustainable propagation of Antarctic species. C) It is most likely to become the ultimate retreat for species like the king penguin. D) Only a few of its islands can
32、 serve as luge breeding grounds for king penguins. Passage one 46.B 47.B 48.D 49.A 50.C Passage two 51.A 52.C 53.D 54.A 55.D Passage One Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage. Effective Friday, Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists ( SAG-AFTRA) has d
33、eclared a strike against 11 video game publishers over games that went into production after Feb.17, 2015. The companies include some of the heavyweights of the industry, like Electronic Arts Productions, Insomniac Games, Activision and Disney. The strike comes in light of an unsuccessful 19 months
34、of negotiations after the existing labor contract known as the Interactive Media Agreement expired in late 2014. Overall, the strike is an effort to provide more secondary compensation along with other concerns, such as transparency upon hiring talent and on-set (制作中) safety precautions. The video g
35、aming industry has ballooned in recent years. The Los Angeles Times reports that the industry is in the midst of an intense increase in cash flow. In 2015, gaming produced $ 23.5 billion in domestic revenue. But SAG-AFTRA says voice actors don't receive residuals (追加酬金) for their gaming work. In
36、stead, they receive a fixed rate, which is typically about $ 825 for a standard four-hour vocal session. So the voice actors are pushing for the idea of secondary compensation- -a performance bonus every time a game sells 2 million copies or downloads, or reaches 2 million subscribers, with a cap at
37、 8 million. “It's a very small number of games that would trigger this secondary compensation issue,” said voice actor Crispin Freeman, who's a member of the union's negotiating committee. “This is an important aspect of what it means to be a freelance (从事自由职业的) performer , who isn't
38、 regularly employed every single day working on projects.” Another major complaint from the actors is the secrecy of the industry. “ I can't imagine if there's any other acting job in the world where you don't know what show you're in, when you're hired,” says voice actor Keythe
39、Farley, who chairs the SAG-AFTRA negotiating committee. “And yet that happens every day in the video game world,” Farley told reporters during a press conference Friday. “I was a main character in Fallout 4, a character by the name of Kellogg, and I never knew that I was doing vocal recording for th
40、at game throughout the year and a half. Scott Witlin, the lawyer representing the video game companies, says voice actors ”represent less than one tenth of 1 percent of the work that goes into making a video game.“ So ”even though they're the top craftsmen in their field,“ Witlin says, ”if we pa
41、y them under a vastly different system than the people who do the 99.9 percent of the work, that's going to create far more problems for the video game companies.“ 46. Why did SAG-AFTRA declare a strike against some video game publishers? A) The labor contract between them had been violated. B)
42、Its appeal to renegotiate the contract had been rejected. C) It had been cheated repeatedly in the 19 months of talks. D) The negotiations between them had broken down. 47. What do we learn from the passage about the video gaming industry? A) It has reaped huge profits in recent years. B) It has bec
43、ome more open and transparent. C) It has attracted many famous voice actors. D) It has invested a lot in its domestic market. 48. What are the voice actors demanding? A) More regular employment. B) A non-discriminatory contract. C) Extra pay based on sales revenues. D) A limit on the maximum work ho
44、urs. 49. What does Keythe Farley say about voice actors? A) They are kept in the dark about many details of their job. B) They are discriminated against in the gaming industry. C) They are not paid on a regular basis. D) They are not employed full-time. 50. What is the argument of lawyer Scott Witli
45、n? A) Voice actors should have a pay raise if they prove to be top craftsmen. B) Changing the pay system would cause the industry more problems. C) Voice actors are mere craftsmen, not professional performers. D) Paying voice actors on an hourly basis is in line with the law. Passage Two Questions 5
46、1 to 55 are based on the following passage. Officials at the White House announced a new space policy focused on managing the increasing number of satellites that companies and governments are launching into space. Space Policy Directive-3 lays out general guidelines for the United States to mitigat
47、e (缓解) the effects of space debris and track and manage traffic in space. This policy sets the stage for the Department of Commerce to take over the management of traffic in space. The department will make sure that newly launched satellites don't use radio frequencies that would interfere with existing satellites, and schedule when such new sat
