17、conversations at the C-suite level, regardless of topic. He was often the first to raise his hand for a project, appeared to have infinite capacity to get high-quality work done, and offered to assist his peers and direct reports. Oliver seemed to be all-in; optimistic, energetic, supportive, and so
18、meone who constituted to everyone.However, the more Oliver participated, the more others around him were slighted. Instead of sparking creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone elses. He consumed time speaking in meetings, exhausting the oxygen level in the room. Oliver felt pumped up by how

25、ussionHow Active Participation Gives Rise to a Better TeamCBoth misinformation, which includes honest mistakes, and disinformation, which involves an intention to mislead, have had a growing impact on teenage students over the past 20 years. One tool that schools can use to deal with this problem is
26、 called media literacy education. The idea is to teach teenage students how to evaluate and think critically about the messages they receive. Yet there is profound disagreement about what to teach.Some approaches teach students to distinguish the quality of the information in part by learning how re
27、sponsible journalism works. Yet some scholars argue that these methods overstate journalism and do little to cultivate critical thinking skills. Other approaches teach students methods for evaluating the credibility of news and information sources, in part by determining the incentive of those sourc
28、es. They teach students to ask: What encouraged them to create it and why? But even if these approaches teach students specific skills well, some experts argue that determining credibility of the news is just the first step. Once students figure out if ifs true or false, what is the other assessment
29、 and the other analysis they need to do?Worse still, some approaches to media literacy education not only dont work but might actually backfire by increasing students, skepticism about the way the media work. Students may begin to read all kinds of immoral motives into everything. It is good to educ
30、ate students to challenge their assumptions, but its very easy for students to go from healthy critical thinking to unhealthy skepticism and the idea that everyone is lying all the time.To avoid these potential problems broad approaches that help students develop mindsets in which theybecome comfort
31、able with uncertainty are in need. According to educational psychologist William Perry of Harvard University, students go through various stages of learning. First, children are black-and-white thinkers they think there are right answers and wrong answers. Then they develop into relativists, realizi
32、ng that knowledge can be contextual. This stage is the one where people can come to believe there is no truth. With media literacy education, the aim is to get students to the next level-that place where they can start to see and appreciate the fact that the world is messy, and thats okay. They have
33、 these fundamental approaches to gathering knowledge that they can accept, but they still value uncertainty.Schools still have a long way to go before they get there, though. Many more studies will be needed for researchers to reach a comprehensive understanding of what works and what doesnt over th
34、e long term. Education scholars need to take an ambitious step forward/9 says Howard Schneider, director of the Center for News Literacy at Stony Brook University.8.

Media Literacy Education: Much Still RemainsB Media Literacy Education: Schools Are to BlameC. Media Literacy Education: A Way
37、to Identify False InformationD. Media Literacy Education: A Tool for Testing Critical ThinkingDThere9s a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble in the World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance be
38、tween people. The UN understands this too thafs why it made Nov. 16 International Day for Tolerance”.But first of all, what is tolerance? French philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) can give us some help. According to him, tolerance is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱)and er
39、ror; let us pardon each others folly - that is the first law of nature.Nobodys perfect; when were tempted to criticize another person, we should perhaps remember our own imperfections first.Very often, people dont realize that they9re intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with igno
40、rance. For example, the UNs campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men dont put themselves in the shoes of women.Its worth thinking a little about the words “tolerance and intolerance”. Are they the best words to
41、 describe the evils of which were speaking here? To agree to be tolerant” of someone isnt necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there9s something wrong with them.But it seems wrong that people should agree to “tolerate“ people with black skin, for example. A
42、nd should women think they have received the respect they are due when men agree to tolerate them?Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. Thats the reason why we should be tolerant.Its a little like generosity. We can give things
43、to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness. Bob Marley understood this. In the song mentioned above, he advised: All you got to do: give a little.Or, as this older piece of wisdom says: Write your love on a rock so it stays fbr eternity; write your hate in the sand so the waves will was
44、h it away.”According to Voltaire, tolerance is.A. being willing to express your love to otherstrying to overcome your imperfectionsB. giving a hand to vulnerable groupsaccepting each others weaknesses12. In what sense is “tolerance“ similar to “generosity”?A. Humans are advised to treat others bette
45、r.B. Humans learned to find faults in others.C. Humans need to give something to others.D. Humans will change their attitudes to others.13. The underlined word this in the last paragraph refers togiving things to othersA. forgiving othersdifferent attitudes toward love and hateB. the fact that human
46、s are imperfectWhafs the text mainly about?A. The origin of the International Day of Tolerance.B. The meaning and importance of tolerance.C. The philosophy behind Bob Marleys song.D. Effective ways to show tolerance.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。I am not sure how
47、many books I have reread,but perhaps it is fewer than the average person. 16 The source material, though, is of course not.I used to take the same approach to books as I did to travel: dont go to the same place twice.Life is too short. 17 Then I realized that the fact that life is short might work t
