27、t. Bartlett-Bragg says in conventional teaching, students often rely on the lecturer as the main source of ideas and critique （评论）fbr their work. “Im a bit over listening to my students giving me back in an essay what Ive told them in class. she says. I want them to think fbr themselves and get difl

28、erent perspectives.“What makes blogs useful is their interactive nature. she says. These web-based thrums（论 坛）for discussing ideas, experiences or opinions allow students to discuss publicly what they are studying with other students and experts outside their own university. I really encourage them

29、to put their personal opinion in there, provided they are informed and backed up with evidence.” Bartlett-Bragg says because a lot of academics in her field of electronic or e-leaming now havetheir own blogs, students can engage directly with them.She says one of the most powerful facilities in webl

30、ogs is pinging, which involves a person positing a comment about someone elses work on their own blog.

What seems strange, however, is that the standard adopted fbr w

35、omen is the opposite of the one fbr men. Take a look at the way your clothes button. Mens clothes tend to button from the right, and womens form the left. Considering most of the words population - men and women - are right-handed, the mens standard would appear to make more sense fbr women. So why

36、do womens clothes button from the left?History really seems to matter here.c Buttons first appeared only on the clothes of the rich in the 17th century, when rich women were dressed by servants. For the mostly right-handed servants, having womens shirts button from the left would be easier. On the o

37、ther hand, having mens shirts button form the right made sense, too. Most men dressed themselves, and a sword drawn from the left with the right hand would be less likely to get caught in the shirt.Today women are seldom dressed by servants, but buttoning form the left is still the standard for them

38、 Is it interesting? Actually, a standard, otice set, resists change. At a time when all womens shirts buttoned form the left, it would have been risky for any single manufacturer to offer womens shirts that buttoned from the right. After all, women had grown so used to shirts which buttoned from the

39、 left and would have to develop new habits and skills to switch. Besides, some women might have found it socially awkward to appear in public wearing shirts that buttoned from the nght, since anyone who noticed that would believe they were wearing mens shirts.12. What is surprising about the standar

It fails to consider right-handed people.13. What do we know about the rich men in the 17th century?A. They tended to we

41、ar clothes without buttons.B. They were interested in the historical matters.C. They were mostly dressed by servants.D. They drew their swords from the left.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? 16. Do you preferg

42、rays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on

43、human beings. 17 If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as youopened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.18.
