21、This Is How Scandinavia Got Great

Almost everybody admires the Nordic model. Countries like Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland have high economic productivity, high social equality, high social trust and high levels of personal happiness.

Nordic nations were ethnically homogeneous(同质的) in 1800, when they were dirt poor. Their economic growth took off just after 1870, way before their welfare states were established. 【1】

The 19th-century Nordic elites did something we haven’t been able to do in our country recently. They realized that if their countries were to prosper they had to create truly successful “folk schools” for the least educated among them. They realized that they were going to have to make lifelong learning a part of the natural fabric of society.

【2】 The German word they used to describe their approach, bildung, doesn’t even have an English equivalent. It means the complete moral, emotional, intellectual and civic transformation of the person. It was based on the idea that if people were going to be able to handle and contribute to an emerging industrial society, they would need more complex inner lives.

Today, Americans often think of schooling as the transmission of specialized skill sets — the student can read, do math and recite the facts of biology. 【3】 It is devised to help them understand complex systems and see the relations between things — between self and society, between a community of relationships in a family and a town.

The Nordic educators worked hard to cultivate each student’s sense of connection to the nation. Before the 19th century, most Europeans identified themselves in local and not national terms. 【4】 The idea was to create in the mind of the student a sense of wider circles of belonging — from family to town to nation — and an eagerness to assume shared responsibility for the whole.

That educational push seems to have had a lasting influence on the culture. Whether in Stockholm or Minneapolis, Scandinavians have a tendency to joke about the way their sense of responsibility is always nagging at them. They have the lowest rates of corruption in the world. They have a distinctive sense of the relationship between personal freedom and communal responsibility.

A．Bildung is the way that the individual matures and takes upon him or herself ever bigger academic responsibility.

B．What really launched the Nordic nations was generations of phenomenal educational policy.

C．Bildung is designed to change the way students see the world.

D．But the Nordic curriculum conveyed to students a pride in, say, their Danish history, folklore and heritage.

E．They look at education differently than we do.

F．The Nordic educators also worked hard to develop the student’s internal awareness.

22、   What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?

This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.

I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.

Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.

【1】The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was______.

A.doing shopping B.having a debate

C.reading a message D.leaving for Wyoming

【2】The author's inspiration for the gift came from_____.

A.a photo of a flower B.a story about a kid

C.a call from the mother D.a text about Christmas

【3】The author made the gift by_____.

A.searching for the poems online B.drawing the background by hand

C.painting the letters in three colors D.matching the words with pictures

【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To show how to design images for gifts. B.To suggest making gifts from one's heart.

C.To explain how computers help create gifts. D.To describe the gifts the author has received

24、Recently, a coalition of business and advocacy groups from around Washington gathered to kick off a campaign to enact a carbon pricing program in the capital.Known as the Climate and Community Reinvestment Act of D.C., the plan would place a new tax on all fossil fuels bought or sold, with the hope of ultimately discouraging the use of these polluting energy sources.

The big-picture goal of this campaign is admirable: to address the ever-deepening crisis of climate chaos by dissuading the continued use of coal,oil and gas. But unfortunately, the approach —one based in a world of financial markets, trading schemes and encouraging new public revenue streams —is inherently flawed. Simply put, carbon pricing is a false solution to climate change and a distraction from real, effective climate solutions we must urgently pursue.

To date, there is insufficient evidence to indicate that carbon taxes lower greenhouse gas emissions. In fact,the opposite is true. Recently Food & Water Watch reviewed the British Columbia carbon tax program, often cited by advocates as an example of success. From 2009(the first full year of the tax)to 2014, emissions from taxed sources grew by 4.3 percent.And in the seven years after the carbon tax took effect, total gasoline sales increased by 7.37 percent.

Supporters of such plans like to focus on a deceivingly (貌似地) simple notion that increasing the price of a consumer good will automatically reduce its use. But this just isn’t the case when it comes to the purchase of necessities. People must heat their homes in winter, and they must commute to work, regardless of the cost.

Those backing the D.C.carbon pricing plan like to note that revenue from the new tax would go toward investment in clean energy sources. But only 20 percent of the generated funds would be allocated in this manner. The rest would be shared out in tax breaks for businesses and rebates (退还款) for consumers, another factor undercutting the belief that increased costs up front would change consumer behavior in the long run.

Regardless of what many well-inattention activists and community leaders want to believe, there is no convenient, market-friendly solution to our terrible climate condition. The latest science indicates that in order to avoid the worst effects of deepening climate chaos, society must transition completely to clean, renewable energy by 2035.

【1】What did Food &.Water Watch find out about carbon tax program?

A．Carbon taxes could reduce greenhouse gas emissions

B．Carbon emissions grew at a lower rate than gasoline sales.

C．Carbon taxes program was generally regarded as a success.

D．Carbon tax program made little difference to carbon emission.

【2】What is the author’s argument against carbon taxes?

A．Funds gained will benefit clean energy sources.

B．Consumers will use less of a good when its price increases.

C．Increased cost will have little effect on the use of necessities.

D．Consumers’ reliance on fossil fuels will decrease dramatically.

【3】What does the underlined word “undercutting”in paragraph 5 mean?.

A．ruining

B．weakening

C．highlighting

D．securing

【4】The most suitable title for this text would be ______.

A．The faulty Carbon Tax.

B．The Climate Change Myth.

C．The Call for Clean Energy.

D．The Causes of Carbon Tax.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

My sister is my friend. Thirteen years ago, she threw a plastic toy at my nose to see if it would fall exactly on my face. It missed me. I giggled and applauded her poor skills. Again, she threw it, and this time it hit. The pain caused my cry. My mother rushed down the steps and saw my sister's guilty eyes trying to hide her innocent game. I cried for hours, not because of the pain but because I was taken away from my sister who was teaching me how to have fun.

Growing up, she was what I wanted to be. So, I took up basketball in Grade Three, just like her. In Grade Seven, I was on the A team, just like she was. I was a reasonably good player, with the height and the patience to charge up and down the court. But by the middle of the season, I found myself hating it. I didn't like the girls, the coaches, or the competitiveness of the game. I pretended to be sick from time to time so I could skip practice.

Eventually my mum caught on and told me that if I hated it so much, I should quit. Was she serious? I couldn't quit! My sister stuck with everything she started. I finished the season hating every moment, but when it was over, I could breathe again. I realized I could do this no more.

When I turned to my sister, she listened. I told her that the idea of not pursuing basketball felt weird since it was the only thing I knew how to do. I told her that I was afraid of my future and that I didn't like not knowing how to handle the rest of my life. I told her I needed her, and she was there for me.
