[填空题]Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
There were 1,300 schools who did not send a single student to Oxbridge(牛津剑桥) between 2006--2009. Let’s assume that there were at least some students in these schools who, with some more help, could convince admissions tutors to give them a place.
My proposal is to let the private sector find and coach these students, outside of normal school hours. In each geographical region, grant several private tutoring firms state contracts to scout and tutor for prestigious university entrance. They can sign up qualifying students and allocate them tutoring, outside of school hours, from this contract budget. A bonus will be awarded for each successful student.

[单项选择]Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.
For some time past it has been widely accepted that babies-and other creatures-learn to do things because certain acts lead to “rewards”; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological (生理的)“drives” as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.
It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.
Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to“reward” the babies and so taught them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but wou
A. have the lights turned on
B. be rewarded with milk
C. please their parents
D. be praised
[单项选择]Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.
On 60 Minutes Sunday, Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke was asked about rising income inequality in the United States. Curiously, The New York Times thought his response would appeal to liberals.
"It’s a very bad development," he said. "It’s creating two societies. And it’s based very much, I think, on educational differences. The unemployment rate we’ve been talking about. If you’re a college graduate, unemployment is 5 %. If you’ re high school graduate, it’s 10% or more. It’s a very big difference."
Is this true Of course liberals would be pleased that Bernanke acknowledges that inequality is a moral and economic problem. But would they agree with his diagnosis of the cause Partially--certainly education affects one’s earning potential enormously in a service economy--but there are many other important phenomena at play.
"It doesn’t explain why all the money went to the very top
