In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing
18、usually was made up of saying poetry aloud and giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of
19、 the process of testing candidates(应试者) for the doctors degree.Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increas
20、e in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, looks like a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected
21、 to act like machines.One type of test is sometimes called an “objective” test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test, the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the
22、 correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.56. The main idea of Paragraph Three is that _ .A. workers now take examinations B. the population has grownC. there are only written exams today D. examinations are now written an
23、d timed57. The kind of exams where students must select answers are _ .A. objective B. personal C. spoken D. written58. Modern industry must have developed _ .A. around the 19th century B .before the Middle AgesC. in Greece or Rome D. machines to take tests59. It may be concluded that testing _ .A.
24、should test only opinions B. should always be writtenC. is given only in factories D. has changed since the Middle AgesBChildren are losing the ability to play properly because they are being given too many toys and games, according to new research.The studies show that children, especially those un
25、der five, are often overwhelmed and actually play less than those with fewer toys. It may even harm their development. The studies show that 单位：湖北省荆门市 姓名：李国 E_mail： giving children too many toys or toys of the wrong type can actually be doing them harm. They get overwhelmed and cannot concentrate on
26、 anything long enough to learn from it.The conclusions have been backed up by British research looking at children with relatively fewer toys, whose parents spend more time reading, singing or playing with them. It showed such children surpass(胜过) youngsters from richer backgrounds, even those who c
27、ould use computers.Some parents notice the ill effect early. Orhan Ismail, a researcher saw a change for the worse in Cameron, his 10-month-old son, after he was given a lot of toys last Christmas.Ismail said, “ If there are too many toys in front of him, he will just keep flitting around them and t
28、hen end up going off and finding something like a slipper to play with. Now we just get out one or two toys and hide the rest in a box.”Alexander and her husband also decided to limit the toys their 6 daughters play with. She believed many toys restrict childrens imaginations. She said, “ A Barbie c
29、an only work as a Barbie. But a cardboard box can become anything. The only limitations are in the childs mind.”Experts hesitate to put a figure on the number of toys children should have, but many believe two dozen is enough for children of preschool age.60.

One or two toys at a time will help children concentrate.C. Only wrong types of toys do harm to children.D. The proper number
32、of toys given to the children depends on their ages.63. It may NOT be a good idea to _.A. spend more time reading or playing with childrenB. choose right types of toys for childrenC. ask experts for the exact number of necessary toys D. put out one or two toys and hide the restC单位：湖北省荆门市 姓名：李国 E_mai
