　　Do American children still learn handwriting in school? In the age of the keyboard, some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out. 90% of teachers say they are required to teach handwriting. But studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it. One study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting. Some teachers are teaching handwriting by providing instruction for 10 15 minutes a day, and then other teachers who basically teach it for 60 to 70 minutes a day — which really for handwriting is pretty much.

　　Many adults remember learning that way — by copying letters over and over again. Today’ s thinking is that short periods of practice are better. Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself. Instead, they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas. After all, that is why we write.

　　Handwriting involves two skills. One is legibility,_ which means forming the letters so they can be read. The other is fluency — writing without having to think about it. Fluency continues to develop up until high school.

　　But not everyone masters these skills. Teachers commonly report that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting. Some people might think handwriting is not important any more because of computers and voice recognition programs.

　　But Steve Graham at Vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school, especially in the early years. American children traditionally first learn to print, and then to write in cursive, which connects the letters. But guess what we learned from a spokeswoman for the College Board, which administers the SAT college admission test. More than 75 percent of students choose to print their essay on the test rather than write in cursive.

　　[答案]　A

　　[解析]　細(xì)節(jié)認(rèn)定題。根據(jù)第二段可知，傳統(tǒng)的書法教學(xué)重復(fù)很多遍并且持續(xù)時間長，因此A、B兩項內(nèi)容正確。根據(jù)第三段第一句可知C項內(nèi)容正確；根據(jù)最后一段第二句可知D項內(nèi)容錯誤。

Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming.

　　Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.

　　Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings (收視率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers, This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry there programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don’t need high ratings to stay on the air.

　　41. Television sport programs on weekend afternoons ________.

　　A. result in more sport events

　　B. get more viewers to play sports

　　C. make more people interested in television

　　D. bring more money to the television networks

　　42. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs?

　　A. Because there would be few viewers.

　　B. Because the advertisers would be off work.

　　C. Because television programs would go slowly.

　　D. Because viewers would pay less for watching television.

　　43. In many families, men make decisions on ________.

　　A. holiday trips

　　B. sports viewing

　　C. televisions shopping

　　D. expensive purchases

　　44. The ratings are not important for golf and tennis programs because ________.

　　A. their advertisers are carmakers

　　B. their viewers are attracted by sports

　　C. their advertisers target at rich people

　　D. their viewers can afford expensive cars

　　45. What is the passage mainly about?

　　A. Television ratings are determined by male viewers.

　　B. Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.

　　C. Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.

　　D. Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.

　　The Basics of Math—Made Clear

　　Basic Math introduces students to the basic concepts of mathematics, as well as the fundamentals of more tricky areas. These 30 fantastic lectures are designed to provide students with an understanding of arithmetic and to prepare them for Algebra(代數(shù)) and beyond.

　　The lessons in Basic Math cover every basic aspect of arithmetic. They also look into exponents(指數(shù)), the order of operations, and square roots. In addition to learning how to perform various mathematical operations, students discover why these operations work, how a particular mathematical topic relates to other branches of mathematics, and how these operations can be used practically.

　　Basic Math starts from the relatively easier concepts and gradually moves on to the more troublesome ones, so as to allow for steady and sure understanding of the material by students. The lectures offer students the chance to “make sense” of mathematical knowledge that may have seemed so frightening. They also help students prepare for college mathematics and overcome their anxiety about this amazing—and completely understandable—field of study.

　　By the conclusion of the course, students will have improved their understanding of basic math. They will be able to clear away the mystery(神秘性) of mathematics and face their studies with more confidence than they ever imagined. In addition, they will strengthen their ability to accept new and exciting mathematical challenges.

　　Professor H. Siegel, honored by Kentucky Educational Television as “the best math teacher in America,” is a devoted teacher and has a gift for explaining mathematical concepts in ways that make them seem clear and obvious. From the basic concrete ideas to the more abstract problems, he is master in making math lectures learner-friendlier and less scary.

　　With a PhD in Mathematics Education from Georgia State University, Dr. Siegel teaches mathematics at Central Arizona College. His courses include various make-up classes and a number of lectures for future primary school teachers.

　　If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.

　　56. What does the course Basic Math mainly cover?

　　A. Algebra.

　　B. College Mathematics.

　　C. Arithmetic.

　　D. Mathematics Education.

　　57. What benefits can students expect from Basic Math?

　　A. Stronger imaginative ability.

　　B. Additional presentation skills.

　　C. More mathematical confidence.

　　D. Greater chances of becoming teachers.

　　58. What can we learn about Professor H. Siegel?

　　A. He is a guest lecturer at Kentucky Educational Television.

　　B. He is to deliver 30 lectures in Basic Math.

　　C. He works in Georgia State University.

　　D. He specializes in training teachers.

　　59. Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?

　　A. A news report.

　　B. A book review

　　C. A lesson plan.

　　D. An advertisement

　　【難度】一般

　　59.【答案】【試題解析】If the course fails to provide complete satisfaction to you, you can easily exchange it for any other course that we offer. Or you can get your money back.”，短文實際上是一則廣告。因此，正確答案為D選項。
