Further education is officially described as the“post-secondary stage of education， comprising all vocational(職業(yè)的) and non-vocational provision made for young people who have left school， or for adults”. Further education thus embraces the vast range of university， technical， commercial， and art education and the wide field of adult education. It is this sector of education， which is concerned with education beyond the normal school-leaving ages of 16 or 18， that has experienced the most astonishing growth in the number of students.
In the 19th century the dominance(統(tǒng)治地位) of Oxford and Cambridge was challenged by the rise of the civic(城市的) universities， such as London， Manchester， and Birmingham. Following the lead of the 18th century German universities and responding to a public demand for increased opportunity for higher education， Britain’s new civic universities quickly acquired recognition—not only in technological fields but also in the fine and liberal arts.
Many new post-school technical colleges were founded in the early 20th century. The Fisher Act of 1918 empowered the local authorities to levy(征收) a rate (tax) to finance such colleges. The universities， on the other hand， received funds from the central government through the University Grants Committee， established in 1911 and recognized in 1920， after World War I.
A new type of technical college was established in the 1960s—the polytechnic， which provides mainly technological courses of university level as well as courses of a general kind in the arts and sciences. Polytechnics are chartered to award degrees validated(使有效) by a Council for National Academic Awards.
Thus， the third level in the United Kingdom is made up of colleges of further education， technical colleges， polytechnics， and universities. The colleges offer full-time and part-time courses beyond compulsory-school level. Polytechnics and universities are mainly responsible for degrees and research. The innovative Open University， with its flexible admission policy and study arrangements， opened in 1971. It uses various media to provide highly accessible and flexible higher education for working adults and other part-time students. It serves as an organizational model and provides course-materials for similar institutions in other countries.
Changes in British education in the second half of the 20th century have， without changing the basic values in the system， extended education by population， level， and content. New areas for expansion include immigrant cultural groups and multicultural content， the accommodation of special needs， and the development of tools and content in the expanding fields of microelectronics.
小題1:The first paragraph is written to explain 　　　　 of further education.
A．the developmentB．the history
C．the definitionD．the prospects(前景)
小題2:The new civic universities in Britain 　　　　.
A．replaced the dominance of Oxford and Cambridge
B．provided further education for all the people who need it
C．met the increased demand of the public for higher education
D．immediately followed the establishment of polytechnic colleges
小題3:Post-school technical colleges 　　　　.
A．were completely free of charge
B．were usually financed by local taxes
C．depended mainly on students’ tuition(學(xué)費(fèi))
D．received funds from the central government
小題4: Further education is 　　　　.
A．only for adult students
B．part-time rather than full-time
C．non-vocational rather than vocational
D．created for both young people and adults
小題5:The proper title for this passage should be “　　　　”.
A．British Further Education
B．Changes in British Education
C．Polytechnics and Universities in Britain
D．Less Opportunity for Higher Education

“Sesame Street” has been called “the longest street in the world.” That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of American’s exports soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969. ?
In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half the nation’s pre-school children, from every kind of economic, racial(種族的), and geographical group. ?
Although some educators object to certain elements in the program, parents praise it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned from “Sesame Street” are in the same class with children who have not watched the program. ?
Tests have shown that children from all racial, geographical, and economic backgrounds have benefited from watching it. Those who watch it five times a week learn more than occasional(偶爾的）viewer. In the US the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly. ?
The programs all use songs stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships. But there are some differences. For example, the Spanish program, produced in Mexico City, devotes more time to teaching whole words than to teaching separate letters. ?
Why has “Sesame Street” been so much more successful than other children’s shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the educational theories of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch it along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on it. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more. ?
小題1: “Sesame Street” is actually______. ?
A．a(chǎn) street in the USB．a(chǎn) program for children?
C．a(chǎn) program of teachersD．a(chǎn) program for students?
小題2:Children who often watch the program______. ?
A．can have problems in schoolB．will find it a great help?
C．will take no interest in their studiesD．will be well educated?
小題3:What is special about the program?
A．It offers great fun. ?
B．It makes children feel able to learn. ?
C．It is shown at different hours during the week. ?
D．Children learn and enjoy themselves while watching. ?
小題4:Why is “Sesame Street” so popular in the world?
A．Because it is supported by the government and businesses. ?
B．Because it uses a variety of skillful tricks. ?
C．Because mothers watch it along with their children. ?
D．Because it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. ?
小題5:The best title for this passage can be______. ?
A．TV ProgramsB．Educating Children?

Visitors to Britain may find the best place to sample local culture is in a traditional pub．But these friendly pubs can be dangerous places of potential gaffes（失禮）for the newcomers．
A team of researchers have discovered some of the unknown customs of British pubs - starting with the difficulty of getting a drink．Most pubs have no waiters - you have to go to the bar to buy drinks．A group of Italian youths waiting 45 minutes before they realized they would have to fetch their own．This may sound inconvenient, but there is a hidden purpose．
Pub culture is designed to promote sociability（社交）in a society known for its reserve．Standing at the bar for service allows you to chat with others waiting to be served．The bar counter is possibly the only site in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely suitable and really quite normal behavior．“If you haven’t been to a pub, you haven’t been to Britain．” This tip can be found in a booklet, Passport to the Pub: The Tourists’ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a customers’ rule of conduct for those wanting to sample “a central part of British life and culture”．
The trouble is that if you do not follow the local rules, the experience may fall flat．For example, if you are in a big group, it is best if only one or two people go to buy the drinks．Nothing annoys the regular customers and bar staff more than a group of strangers blocking all access to the bar while they chat and hesitate about what to order．
小題1:The underlined word “sample” in the first paragraph probably means “________”．
A．tasteB．experience
C．testD．record
小題2:The culture of pub in Britain is so developed to ________．

小題3:If you don’t follow the local rules in a pub, ________．
A．you won’t buy good local drinks
B．you may annoy the regular customers and bar staff
C．you may fail to feel the local culture
D．you might get into a dangerous place
小題4:What may be the best title for the passage?
A．Self-service Pubs in Britain

C．Local Pub Culture in Britain
D．Manners in British Local Pubs

There’s a time to get angry, and it’s best for your child if you do. Let’s say your child hits a playmate with a toy hard enough to make the other child cry. How can you teach your child to feel sorry so he or she won’t do it again? Researchers say the best way for parents to react（反應(yīng)）is to show their anger and to let the child know exactly why they are mad.
　　Many parents believe that it is best to control their feelings and to wait until they’re calm before scolding their children. But the mother or father who explains reasonably to a child , “Peter was crying because you hit him,” is not likely to attract much attention. Young children need to be scolded immediately, and strongly, before they’ll take criticism （批評(píng)）to heart.
　　When your young child does something wrong, scold him or her seriously at once. At the same time be sure to tell the child clearly what he or she has done wrong. An angry reaction without an immediate explanation does little good. Forbidding a child to play outside or not allowing him to watch TV as a punishment works well-but only when taken together with an explanation. Make sure your child understands that although his or her wrongdoing has made you angry, you still love him or her. Use simple, direct words such as, “You hurt peter. How would you feel if he hit you? You must never, never hurt people.” If your voice expresses strong feeling clearly, your message will carry enough weight.
小題1:According to researchers, how should parents react when their child did something wrong?
A．Ask the child not to do it again any time.
B．Show the child how angry they are and tell him why.
C．Teach the child why and how to say sorry to others.
D．Let the child know you still love hime or her.
小題2:What do many parents think they should do with the wrongdoer?
A．Calm themselves down before scolding him.
B．Hide their feelings when talking to him.
C．Explain immediately why he was wrong.
D．Speak strongly and angrily to him.
小題3:What could be the best title for the text?
A．Different Ways to Deal with Children’s Wrongdoings
B．Differences among Parents in Dealing with Children
C．Best Ways to Stop Children’s Wrongdoings
D．Research on Preventing Children from Hurting Others

    Language is always changing. In a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the language does not change either. The earliest known languages had difficult grammar but a small, limited vocabulary. Over the century, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew. For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth century gave names to all the new plants and animals they found. In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies. Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too.
There are several major language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently. The languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. About 3 percent of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families. （詞數(shù)155）
小題1:The early language had ________.
A．a(chǎn) lot of problemsB．words and easy grammar

When an emergency situation occurs, observers are more likely to take action if there are few or no other witnesses．This phenomenon is referred to as the bystander effect．
The bystander effect is also called the Genovese effect, which was named after Catherine Kitty Genovese, a．young woman who was murdered on March 13, 1964．Early in the morning, 28-year-old Genovese was returning home from work．As she approached her apartment entrance, she was attacked and stabbed（刺）by a man later identified as Winston Moseley．Despite Genovese]s repeated cries for help , none of the dozen or so people in the nearby apartment building who heard her cries called the police for help ．The attach first began at 3:20 , but it was not until 3:50 that someone first contacted the police．
There are two major factors that contribute to the bystander effect．First, the presence of other people creates a diffusion（分散）of responsibility．Because there are other observers, individuals do not feel as much pressure to take action, since the responsibility to take action is thought to be shared among all of those present．
The second reason is the need to behave in correct and socially acceptable ways．When other observers fail to react, individuals often take this as a signal that a response is not needed or not appropriate．Other researchers have found that onlookers are less likely to take action if the situation, is ambiguous^ R^E^?）．In the case of Kitty Genovese, many of the 38 witnessing reported that they believed that they were witnessing a " lovers' quarrel" , and did not realize that the young woman was actually being murdered．

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Who's in control of your life? Who is pulling your string? For the majority of us, it's other people-society, colleagues, friends, family or our religious community. We learned this way of operating when we were very young, of course. We were brainwashed. We discovered that feeling important and feeling accepted was a nice experience and so we learned to do everything we could to make other people like us. As Oscar Wilde puts it, “Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry(模仿)，their passions a quotation.”
So when people tell us how wonderful we are, it makes us feel good. We long for this good feeling like a drug－we are addicted to it and seek it out wherever we can. Therefore, we are so eager for the approval of others that we live unhappy and limited lives failing to do the things we really want to. Just as drug addicts and alcoholics live worsened lives to keep getting their fix(一劑毒品)，we worsen our own existence to get our own constant fix of approval.
But just as with any drug, there is a price to pay. The price of the approval drug is freedom－the freedom to be ourselves. The truth is that we cannot-control what other people think. People have their own agenda(日程安排), and they come with their own baggage and, in the end, they're more interested in themselves than in you. Furthermore, if we try to live by the opinions of others, we will build our life on sinking sand. Everyone has a different way of thinking, and people change their opinions all the time. The person who tries to please everyone will only end up getting exhausted and probable pleasing no one in the process.
So how can we take back control? I think there's only one way－make a conscious decision to stop caring what other people think. We should guide ourselves by means of a set of values－not values imposed from the outside by others, but innate values which come from within. If we are driven by these values and not by the changing opinions and value systems of others, we will live a more authentic(真實(shí)的), effective, purposeful and happy life.
小題1:What Oscar Wilde says implies that      .
A．most people's thoughts are controlled by others.
B．we have thoughts similar to those of others.
C．most people have a variety of thoughts.
D．other people's thoughts are more important.
小題2: What does the author try to argue in the third paragraph?
A．The price of taking the drug is freedom.
B．Changing opinions may cost us our freedom.
C．We may lose ourselves to please others.
D．We need to pay for what we want to get.
小題3: It can be concluded from the passage that     .
A．it's important to accept others' opinions.
B．it's better to do what we like.
C．we shouldn't care what others think.
D．we shouldn't change our won opinions.
小題4: The author tries to persuade the readers to accept his arguments mainly by     .
A．making suggestions.B．a(chǎn)nalyzing causes and effects.
C．providing examples and facts.D．discussing questions

An unhealthy obsession (著迷)with celebrity(名人) culture is damaging the study success of British students, a survey of teachers found last Friday, with celebrity couple the Beckhams their favorite. Many students are dropping their study to seek the chance of fame instead, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) survey found. .Almost two-thirds of teachers said sports stars were the type of celebrity most pupils wanted to copy while more than half of students wanted to be pop stars.
The celebrities students wanted to be most like, the survey said, were Los Angeles-based David and Victoria Beckham, Britain's most famous couple. Soccer player "Beckhams" topped the poll(民意測(cè)驗(yàn)), with more than half the teachers saying their students modeled themselves on him. In second place, with almost a third of the poll's vote, was his 33 year-old wife and pop star "Posh."
A majority of teachers said it was television "stars" and a media fixation with celebrities, celebrity culture that negatively impacted the their pupils. Almost half of the 300 teachers polled said pupils tried to look like or behave like celebrities they most admired. What they feared is that girls particularly dressed in "unsuitable.”
"We are not surprised about infiltration(滲透) of celebrity culture in schools" the teacher Mary Boust  said in a statement. "Celebrities can have a positive effect on students. They can raise students' desires and ambitions for the future.
"However, celebrity culture can cause the wrong opinion that celebrity status(地位) is the greatest achievement and the belief that other career choices are not valuable."
