Some values refer to how one should act (be honest, unselfish, self-

23、disciplined) while other values refer to what one wants to accomplish or obtain in life (a lot of money, fame, a family, friendships, world peace). Because a person cannot have it all or be all things, priorities must be set and choices made. Setting your priorities often leads to value conflicts. Y

24、ou may want to be successful in your career, but you may also want a more relaxing lifestyle and more time to spend with friends and family. Here, the value of success may come into conflict with the value of family. Some examples of moral values are: integrity, respect, caring, justice and openness

25、. There are many, many moral values; thus, these represent only a very few. To understand and solve a moral dilemma, you must figure out which values are involved in the conflict, prioritize them, and act upon the primary value. The act must be grounded in a moral rule. What is a moral rule? A moral

26、 rule is very specific; it is action guiding. It tells you what to do in a specific situation. Moral rules are quite specific about what should be done. Values are general beliefs or attitudes about something we desire or like. Our values very often underlie our moral rules. If my moral rule is alwa

27、ys be honest, then my value is honesty. Values only express what 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 5 页，共 13 页学习必备欢迎下载it is that we believe has value. Being a moral person requires our knowing how to make good moral decisions by using ethical standards and critical thinking. Sometimes we

28、 must choose between what we want to be and what we want or desire. Very often what we have the right to do is not identical with what the right thing to do is. There is not one single decision making procedure which works. 1. According to the passage, life is full of value conflicts because _. Awe

29、find it hard to make a choice between different things Bthere are too many things we dont know how to obtain Cmoney, fame, family and friendship are all valuable for us Dpeople have different standards of values 2. The author describes moral values as _. Athe way one behaves Bthe purpose of life Cth

32、from the last paragraph that _.

33、sage 2 My observation is that many instructors, from elementary school through undergraduate college courses, have a standard, conventional, only one right way approach to the material. A student who does it differently from the instructor is labeled wrong. I believe that such an approach is often t

34、he result of the limited intellectual ability of the instructor, who only knows one reliable technique. As a simple example of rigidity (僵化), when I was a pupil in elementary school, the textbook and instructor taught that the definition of a noun was the name of a person, place, or thing. But I had

35、 read my mothers old college grammar book, which said that a noun was the name of anything. I liked the latter definition better, because it was logically simpler: any name is a noun. But I was marked wrong for not using the official definition, although the definition I gave on the examination was

36、equivalent. Students who are both intelligent and highly creative often make average grades in school, because these creative students see issues and vagueness in examination problems that the instructor did not intend. Creative students misread the question, according to the view of the conventiona

37、l instructor. This problem is particularly severe on multiple choice examinations where a creative student can quickly find situations in which either all or none of the answers are correct, whereas a noncreative student who knows the material in a conventional way simply selects the best answer and

38、 gets marked correct. Children seem to have an innate sense of curiosity, enthusiasm, and imagination. Mature adults generally lack these qualities. Where did these qualities get lost? I believe that teachers and industrial managers beat these qualities out of people, in order to make them easier to

39、 control and manage. In my experience, both as a student and professor, organized education - as a bureaucracy (官僚机构 ) - actively discourages creativity. I believe that creativity can be taught and encouraged in a master-apprentice setting, such as a student working in a research laboratory. 1. Acco

40、rding to the author, what is the problem with school education?_ AThe techniques used in teaching are out of date. BTeachers are trying to teach their students in their own way. 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 7 页，共 13 页学习必备欢迎下载CStudents are encouraged to solve a problem in a fixed wa

42、r early experience in education as an example, the author intends to _. Aillustrate how teachers are too rigid Bremind us of the importance of early education Ccriticize the unqualified teachers in his elementary school Dappeal for a comprehensive reform in higher education 4. Creative students are

43、more likely to make mistakes in examinations because _. Athey misread the questions in the examinations Bthey find that some problems in the examinations are not clear Cthey tend to understand a question in a vague way Dthey dont like to take direct approaches to examination problems 5. In order to

44、keep children curious and creative, the author suggests _. Ainstructors make an effort to give clear instructions Bschools provide students with interesting materials Cstudents be trained in a master-apprentice relationship Dteachers change their instructive approaches Passage 3 Have you ever been s

45、tartled by a loud noise or by someone appearing suddenly behind you on a dark night or by a snake in the grass? Do you remember the sudden, tight feeling in your chest, the way your heart started to pound, the way you seemed to breathe more rapidly? Such reactions occurred because you were frightene

46、d. Your brain sent a signal to the special gland in your body called the adrenal gland. Other parts of your body were involved, too, but the adrenal gland has a very special function. 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 8 页，共 13 页学习必备欢迎下载The adrenal gland is located on top of your kidney.

47、 Since you have two kidneys, you also have two adrenal glands. Each adrenal gland is divided into two parts: a cortex and a medulla. The cortex forms the outer shell; the medulla forms the central core. Both the cortex and the medulla secrete hormones, but they have different functions. The cortex p

48、roduces more than forty different chemical compounds and hormones. All these things are essential to sustain life. The medulla secretes adrenalin (also called epinephrine, the hormone that prepares the body for emergencies). When you are suddenly faced with a dangerous or stressful situation, part o

49、f your brain instantly sends a signal to the adrenal gland, and all sorts of things begin to happen in your body. The medulla releases an extra amount of adrenalin into the bloodstream. The adrenalin is carried rapidly throughout the body, stimulating other glands and systems. 1. In this passage, th

50、e author is mainly discussing the function of _. A the human brain B glands and systems in the body C the cortex of the adrenal gland Dthe medulla of the adrenal gland 2. Which of the following is NOT true? A The adrenal gland is located on top of the kidney. B Each kidney is composed of two adrenal
