For each of them are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.</strong></p><p><strong>Task 1</strong></p><p>A historic change is taking place in higher education. Professors are being held responsible as never before for how well they serve students. It has become as common in colleges and universities for students to grade professors as for professors to grade students.</p><p>In fact, student ratings have become the most widely used and, in many cases, the only source of information on teaching effectiveness. In comparing three studies of the same 600 four-year colleges, it was found that the number of colleges using student ratings to evaluate teachers had climbed from 29 percent to 68 percent. No other method of evaluation approached that degree of usage, and other studies have found similar results.</p><p>One reason that student evaluations of teachers have become so popular is that they are easy to administer and to score. But they also are easy to abuse. If they are to shed meaningful light on teacher's  performance, the rating must be used in a way that reflects at least some of what were learned about them from research and from experience.</p><p>Research and experience have shown us, for example, that student ratings should never be the only basis for evaluating teaching effectiveness. There is much more to teaching than what is evaluated on student rating forms. When ratings are used, we know that students should not be expected to judge whether the materials used in a course are up to date or how well the teacher knows the subject matter of the course. These judgments require professional background and are best left to the professor colleagues. On the other hand, students should be asked to estimate what they have learned in a course, and to report on such things as a professor's ability to communicate at the student's level, professional behavior in the classroom, relationship with students, and ability to interest in the subject.</p><p><br/></p><p>41.The central idea of the passage is that （      ）.</p>

[单选题]<p><strong>Task 2</strong></p><p>Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes.To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied st person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts,can be supported in a number of ways. </p><p>It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take it is likely two unrelated people at random(任意的)from the population , it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical(完全相同的) twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.</p><p>Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon fine differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.</p><p><br/></p><p>46.The writer is in favor of the view that（      ）.</p>

[单选题]<p><strong>Task 3</strong></p><p>The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil behavior of drivers who to respect the legal and moral rights of others. So the massacre on the road may be regarded as a social problem.</p><p>In fact the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence.</p><p>Researchers have estimated that as many as 80% of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can distort drivers' reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be evident, The experts warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one's emotions under control. </p><p>Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. Street walkers regularly violate traffic regulations, they are at fault in most vehicle--walker accidents, and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road. </p><p>Significant legal advances have been made toward safer driving in the past few years standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic worthiness inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures. the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.</p><p><br/></p><p>51.The author's main purpose in writing this passage is （      ）.</p>
