21、 US and Britain, the slogan around colleges was “Save water. Shower with a friend.” Now, Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in
22、the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit（ IC） card reader at each tap shows the time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system
23、, which charged 1 yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used about 320 tons of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now. Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided. Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of ra
24、ce. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and theyre still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time. “Its a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the I
25、D card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some students suggestions that they be allowed to pay after theyve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water
26、-saving sense. Without the time limits, most students tended to shower for 30 to an hour in the bathhouse. Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 10-20 minutes is enough,” said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes. A similar system has been ins
27、talled in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower. 41. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? 本资料来源于

He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didnt have any other l
32、uggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package. “Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find
33、 him easily,” Tony said. ”You dont have any luggage, right?” “Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.” “Thats right. One carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.” “Thanks.” Is Brian a criminal(犯罪 )? Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the
34、 round-trip ticket to Paris. Air courier get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier
35、company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick. Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air couriers.

40、lls us about a developing business C Anyone who doubts that children are born with a healthy amount of ambition need spend only a few minutes with a baby eagerly learning to walk. No matter how many times the little ones stumble in their first efforts, most keep on trying, determined to master their
41、 amazing new skill. It is only several years later, many psychologists and teachers agree, that a good number of kids seem to lose their natural drive to succeed. For the parents of such kids, whose own ambition is often tied to their childrens success, it can be a painful experience. Figuring out w
42、hy the fire went out is the first step. Assuming that a kid doesnt suffer from a learning disability, or isnt involved in some family crisis(危机 ) at home, many educators attribute a sudden lack of motivation to a fear of failure or classmate pressure. “Everything is within the kids control; their in
43、telligence is changeable,” says Lisa Blackwell, a research scientist at Columbia University. 本资料来源于大家网高考英语论坛 http:/ 更多精品尽在大家网高考英语！ http:/www.TopS “More than any teacher or workshop,” Blackwell says, “parents can play a key role in conveying this message to their children by praising their effort, an
44、d progress rather than emphasizing their smartness or praising high performance alone. Most of all, parents should let their kids know that mistakes are a part of learning.” Some experts say our education system, with its strong emphasis on testing and separation of students into different levels of
45、 ability, also bears blame for the disappearance of drive in some kids. “These programs shut down the motivation of all kids who arent considered gifted and talented. They destroy their confidence,” says Jeff Howard, a social psychologist. Howard and other educators say its important to expose kids
46、to a world beyond homework and tests, through volunteer work, sports, hobbies and other extracurriculum activities. “The problem of the issue is that many students experience education as irrelevant to their life goals and ambitions,” says Michael Nakkual, a Harvard education professor. The key to g
47、etting kids to aim higher at school is to free them of the idea that class work is irrelevant, to show them how doing well at school can actually help them fulfill their dreams beyond it. They need to understand that you have to learn to walk before you can run. 51 According to the passage, the pare
