【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 read mainly about maths popular science books only popular among kids（3）According to Paragraph 4,which of the following does Greene agree with? physics is a boring subject. plays an important role in studying. is not necessary to learn all about physics. is easy to describe black holes and the Big Bang.（4）In the last paragraph, Greene hopes that . can love science and physics can do well in physics exams can have fun with experiments can find more strange things in life【答案】 （1）B（2）C（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，物理和數(shù)學教授Brian Greene希望更多的孩子可以對現(xiàn)代物理學感興趣。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段Greene對這個問題的解釋以及他說需要未來的物理學家去解決可知,作者提出的這個問題非常難。故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“…books by…‘make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren39。t yet ready, perhaps, to learn maths39。.”可知,Greene認為Weinberg和Susskind等物理學家寫的書淺顯易懂,適合普通大眾閱讀,故這些書屬于受歡迎的科普讀物。故選C。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段可知,當作者指出一些學生覺得物理無聊時,Greene說重要的是向孩子們講述一些稀奇古怪的事,并描述一些諸如黑洞和宇宙大爆炸的現(xiàn)代物理現(xiàn)象,如果孩子們知道了這些,他們中的一些就愿意了解所有詳細的內(nèi)容。因此可推知他認為興趣在學習過程中起著非常重要的作用。故選B。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Greene has followed Albert Einstein39。s lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the he wants kids to do the same.”可知,Greene希望孩子們可以像他一樣對科學和物理感興趣,去探索宇宙的奧秘。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，考生需要根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。4．閱讀理解 The importance of reading literature often seems lost on many Chinese people. Even experts in education think that the first goal of education is to encourage a love of learning. There is therefore the possibility of something wrong with the way students are taught here. Why should they read literature? Do stories have value pared with the reading and learning of facts? Studies show clearly that the most powerful ways of learning are by experience, action and doing experiments and taking risks. Yet there are so many important things to learn that cannot be learned in these ways: feelings, problem solving, danger and relationships, for example. Research into this has shown how deep reading is a valuable experience different to a learning of words or facts. Keen(熱心的) readers of literature show a better understanding of others. Their abilities to make good decisions are raised. Young children who enjoy a parent reading stories to them show greater awareness(意識) when they reach school age. The best schools do seem to provide a limited (有限的) chance to enjoy literature, usually about the Chinese classic stories but there is not enough free time for students. There are enough reading materials (材料). Chinese book shops are full of story books, and most of them are of good quality (質(zhì)量) in terms of content, plot (情節(jié)) and language. Was there not a Chinese author who received a Nobel Prize for literature recently? There are moves in Chinese education to promote (提升) decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China.（1）What does the author think of the way students are educated in China?

When students started classes on Monday, they were zipping to an app on their tablets or laptops and bad instant access to all 40 texts in the Stepinac curriculum (課程). Dennis Lauro, director of an information center which provides technical support to public schools in New York, said neither he nor his colleagues were aware of a similar digital effort in a public school setting. This is the wave of the future. Lauro said. I39。m not surprised that a private school would beat the public schools to it. They have the ability to just do it. There is so much politics involved in public schools, when it es to
