Ⅱ．认真阅读下面两篇短文，每篇短文后有五个问题。根据短文的内容从四个选项中选择一个最佳答案，并填入答题纸相应位置。（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）
Passage One
We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can also have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full , not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership shills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as how to think, to make decisions, to analyze, and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when it is appropriate. In this case, it is the teachers who do the teaching, which happens in any traditional classrooms. We encourage our pupils to use the library too, and teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.
31．“We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils.” In this context, the word streaming means _____.
A．evaluating B．grouping
C．lecturing D．mixing
32．According to the passage, the students can develop all aspects of learning by _____.
A．using the library
B．working in pairs
C．learning from each other
D．receiving mixed ability teaching
33．Which of the following is NOT mentioned about group work?
A．Pupils learn to cooperate.
B．Pupils learn to develop their leadership skills.
C．Pupils learn to participate in student teaching.
D．Pupils learn to think and solve problems.
34．In Paragraph 4, formal class teaching probably means _____.
A．lectures by the teacher B．discussion
C．student teaching D．library work
35．In this passage, the author is _____ about streaming pupils.
A．disconcerting B．positive
C．encouraging D．negative
Passage Two
I have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen, simply because I happened to be a customer. The more I go into shops and hotels, banks and post offices, railway stations, airports and the like, the more I’m convinced that things are being run solely to suit the firm, the system, or the union. There seems to be something deceptive for the so-called “service” organization－Staff Before Service.
How often, for example, have you queued（排队）for what seems like hours at the post office or the supermarket because there weren’t enough staff on duty at the checkout counters? Surely in these days of high unemployment it must be possible to hire cashiers and counter staff. Yet supermarkets claim that uncovering all their cash registers at any one time would increase cost. And the post office says we cannot expect all their Service counters to be occupied “at times when demand is low.”
It’s the same with hotels. Because waiters and kitchen staff must finish when it suits them, dining rooms close earlier or menu choice is cut short. As for us guests, we just have to put up with it. There is also the nonsense of so many friendly hotel night porters having been thrown out of their jobs and replaced by machines. Not to mention the creeping threat of the tea-making kit in your room: a kettle with a mixed collection of teabags, plastic milk cartons and lump sugar. Who wants to wake up to a raw teabag? I don’t, especially when I am paying for “service”.
Can it be stopped, this sort of poor service, this growing attitude that the customer is always a nuisance? I eagerly hope so because it’s happening, sadly, in all walks of life.
36．By saying “I have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen,” the writer means that he does not _____.
A．get a good job
B．get any reward
C．get good service
D．get good medical treatment
37．According to the passage, customers queue for a long time because _____.
A．fewer people than needed are hired to work at the checkout counters
B．the cashiers leave their counters from time to time
C．the cashiers work rather slowly
D．there are not enough cash registers
38．Fewer people are placed at the checkout counters simply because _____.
A．unemployment rate is high
B．there are more cashiers than needed
C．those in business hire fewer people to save money
D．only a small number of people can be hired to work in the service industry
39．The writer used to enjoy the service at the hotels provided by _____but feels bad that they are out of service now.
A． machines B． porters
C． waiters D． kitchen staff
40． The writer talks about the service industry with rather a (n) _____tone.
A． angry B． pleasant
C． cheerful D． fearful
