2、arningEnchanted learning is a great website for children,and I know several teachers who rely on it for materials fortheir classrooms.Most of the information is free,but for$20.00 per year,you can purchase a membership thatallows you to have access to the site without the advertising.The pages here

3、are great.There are color1 ed pagesand worksheets for toddlers(学步儿童)and school-age children.StarfallStarfall is another good educational website for small children.Teachers often use this website in classrooms.It emphasizes reading skills for early learners.The website is aimed at first-grade-level

4、learners,but it has toolsthat can help all children from pre-K to second grade.The website has reading activities,worksheets to download,and a store where you can purchase educational materials for your children.Sesame Street WorkshopKids loveSesame Street,and it is always educational.This is one of

5、 the funniest websites online for childrenbecause it is very well animated and has great sound effects.The website has games and stories for small kids,andthey can create letters at the post office and mail them to their favorite characters.1.Why does Enchanted Learning offer purchasing memberships?

6、A.Charging for the information.B.Charging for downloading materials.C.Giving access to the site without the ads.D.Providing unlimited search for more pages.2.Where can you buy educational materials for your children?A.Enchanted LearningB.StarfallC.Sesame Street WorkshopD.Colored pages3.What is the p

7、urpose of this text?A.To introduce.B.To discuss.C.To persuade.D.To educate.BIn Japan many workers for large corporations have a guarantee of lifetime employment.They will not be laidoff during recessions or when the tasks they perform are taken over by robots.To some observers,this iscapitalism at i

8、ts best,because workers are treated as people not things.Others see it as necessarily inefficient andbelieve it cannot continue if Japan is to remain competitive with foreign corporations more concerned aboutprofits and less concerned about people.Defenders of the system argue that those who call it

9、 inefficient do not understand how it really works.In thefirst place not every Japanese worker has the guarantee of a lifetime job.The lifetime employment systemincludes only“regular employees.”Many employees do not fall into this category,including all women.Allbusinesses have many part time and te

10、mporary employees.These workers are hired and laid off during the courseof the business cycle just as employees in the United States are.These“irregular workers”make up about 10percent of the nonagricultural work force.Additionally,Japanese firms maintain some flexibility through theextensive use of

11、 subcontractors.This practice is much more common in Japan than in the United States.The use of both subcontractors and temporary workers has increased markedly in Japan since the 1974-1975recession.All this leads some people to argue that the Japanese system really is not all that different from th

12、eAmerican system.During recessions Japanese corporations lay off temporary workers and give less business tosubcontractors.In the United States,corporations lay off those workers with the least working experience.Thedifference then is probably less than the term“lifetime employment”suggests,but ther

13、e still is a difference.Andthis difference cannot be understood without looking at the values of Japanese society.The relationship betweenemployer and employee cannot be explained in purely contractual terms.Firms hold on to the employees and thatemployees stay with one firm.There are also practical

14、 reasons for not jumping from job to job.Most retirementbenefits come from the employer.Changing jobs means losing these benefits.Also,teamwork is an essential partof Japanese production.Moving to a new firm means adapting to a different team and at least temporarily,lowerproductivity and lower pay.

15、4.According to the passage,a woman in Japan _.A.cannot get a lifetime jobB.is impossible to get a part time jobC.will be employed for lifeD.is among the regular workers5.Which of the following is NOT the reason why Japanese workers stay with one firm?A.They dont want to lose their retirement benefit

16、s.B.They are not adaptable people.C.Any change of jobs will make them less paid.D.They get used to the teamwork.6.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A.those who want to change jobs frequently in Japan should think twiceB.those who are first laid off by American corporations are temporary wor

17、kersC.the use of subcontractors makes Japanese firms less flexibleD.the Japanese system is totally different from the American system7.What does the passage mainly discuss?A.The extremely hard situation during recessions.B.The extensive use of subcontractors in Japan.C.The characteristics of corpora

18、tions in the United States.D.The features of lifetime employment in Japan.CWe asked four people who watched an online talk on technology and communication by Sherry Turkle fortheir opinions.Fred:The talk certainly gave me plenty of food for thought about how technology is changing our behaviour.Peop

19、le are constantly multitasking,whether it be emailing during meetings or texting in the checkout queue.Itsas if we cant bear to miss out on what our online friends are up to,so we juggle the real and online world.Mygreatest concern is that we dont give our brains a chance to switch off.Itsthese prec

21、they witnesstheir parents posting on social media while cooking the evening meal or waiting at a red light?Kath:So much of what the speaker said rang true.I honestly believe theres a danger that the more connected weare,the more isolated we feel.I dont think this is such an issue for my generation w

22、hove lived withouttechnology for so long.We know how to be alone.But the under 20s are another kettle of fish.Theyre so busycommunicating that they never experience the feeling of solitude and run the risk of not learning how to enjoytheir own company.Carl:Im not sure to what extent I agree that peo

23、ple are more alone,but the way we communicate has certainlyevolved.The speaker makes a good point about how were getting used to talking with machines like Siri or robots,which are totally lack of experience of human life.But despite such limitations,we seem to be expecting morefrom technology and l
