Wanner manages school facilities (设施) for Clark County, Nevada，a district roughly the size of Massachusetts. By 2018, 143,000 additional students will enter the already crowded public education system. Wanner needs 73 new schools to house them. Four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes (样品)；they plan to construct their schools starting in 2009. The district will then assess how well the schools perform, and three winners will copy those designs in 50 to 70 new buildings. Green schools are appearing all over, but in Clark County，which stands out for its vastness, such aggressive targets are difficult because design requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate. “One of the biggest challenges is getting the right site orientation(朝向) ,” Mark McGinty, a director at SH Architecture, says. His firm recently completed a high school in Las Vegas. “You have the same building, same set of windows, but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun, it will be really expensive to cool.” Surprisingly, the man who is responsible for one of the most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings. “I don’t believe in the new green religion，” Wanner says.“Some of the building technologies that you get are impractical. I’m interested in those that work. ”But he wouldn’t mind if some green features inspire students. He says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power. “You never know what’s going to start the interest of a child to study math and science，”he says.‎ 24. How did the architects react to Wanner’s design requirements?‎ A. They lost balance in excitement. B. They expressed little interest. C. They showed strong disbelief. D. They burst into cheers.‎ ‎25. Which order of steps is followed in carrying out the project?‎ A. Design—Prototype—Assessment—Construction. B. Design—Assessment—Prototype—Construction. C. Assessment—Design—Prototype—Construction. D. Assessment—Prototype—Design—Construction.‎ ‎26. What makes it difficult to build green schools in Clark County?‎ A. The large size. B. Limited facilities. C. Poor natural resources. D. The desert climate.‎ ‎27. What does Wanner think of the ideas of green schools?‎ A. They are out of date. B. They are questionable. C. They are advanced. D. They are practical.‎ C It is natural for young people to blame their parents for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained(抱怨), more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they always want to control them; that they do not trust them to deal with problems; and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. ‎ Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes, hairstyles, and music. Actually this is not what they really intend to do. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or clothes or hairstyles make their parent angry, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are better, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste. ‎ Sometimes you do not obey orders, and are proud because you do not want your parents to say yes to what you do. If they do, it looks as if you are unfaithful to your own age group. But in that case, you will probably think that you are the underdog: you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parent’s control. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can persuade others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. Get them to feel your sense of responsibility and initiative(进取心) so that they will allow you to do what you want to do. ‎ ‎28. The first paragraph is mainly about ______. ‎ A. children’s complaints about their parents B. misunderstandings between children and their parents C. the control of the parents over their children D. children’s ability to deal with problems ‎29. The underlined word “irritate” in this passage is closest in meaning to “______”. ‎ A. to make someone excited B. to make someone angry C. to please someone D. to comfort someone ‎30. Children choose to have certain strange clothes and hairstyles because they ______. ‎ A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own B. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste C. have no other way to enjoy themselves better D. want to make their parents angry ‎31. Children do not want their parents to say yes to whatever they do because they ______. ‎ A. have already been accepted into the adult world B. feel that they are better in a small way than the adults C. are not likely to win over the adults D. have a desire to be independent ‎ D When six the very best students from different cities in Guangdong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment (录取) rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.‎ ‎ Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students. ‎ ‎ There's no doubt to call this HK craze (狂热), which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.‎ ‎ How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?‎ ‎ First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.‎ ‎ Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual (双语) education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students. ‎ ‎ Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.‎ ‎ Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.‎ ‎ The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.‎ ‎ At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees (学费) are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.‎ ‎32. What is the passage mainly talking about?‎ ‎ A. The competition between HK University and Peking University.‎ ‎ B. Higher education in Hong Kong.‎ ‎ C. Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.‎ ‎ D. The fall of mainland universities.‎ ‎33. Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because ______.‎ ‎ A. HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study ‎ B. they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities ‎ C. many students now would love to study abroad to get a better experience ‎ ‎ D. Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation ‎34. From the passage we can see HK universities _______.‎ ‎ A. didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland ‎ B. are proud of their teaching staff and facilities ‎ ‎ C. have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there ‎ ‎ D. didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular ‎35. What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A. The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.‎ ‎ B. Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.‎ ‎ C. Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge HK universities.‎ ‎ D. Top students should be offered further education free of charge.‎ ‎     ‎ 第二节：任务型阅读。根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项，请把答案写在答题卡上。‎ How to Make a Chinese Hot Pot Eating a Chinese hot pot is a very common experience.
