And 15 of the 18 awards went to students from China. 170 students task: to get a fully-designed up and running, complete with many postings based on a theme of choiceall written in Chinese. Themes ranged from local opinionssuch as the usage of Singlish, education and whether Singapore can be a cultural centreto food s. The entries were judged on Language proficiency（熟练程度）and the quality of writing, as well as the design and level of exchanging ideas with readers. Academics(学者) from the National University of Singapore and the SIM University IT experts, and a journalist from Chinese newspaper Lianhe Zaobao in Singapore made up the judges. In the end, only three Singaporean students made it to the award listthe rest of the awards were swept up by students from China. “No surprise,” said Mr. Chow Yaw Long, 37, teachers in charge from Innova Junior College, which organized the event. “Although the topics were local subjects, the foreign students were generally better in terms of the content of the posts and their grasp of the Chinese language. ” One of the three local students winning the first prize in the Best Language Award was ger Christina Gao 19, from the Saint Andrews Junior College, who spared no effort in researching for and writing her Each entry took her between five and seven days to produce, complete with pictures and even podcasts(播客). Her advice for gers is: Be responsible(负责任的). “Some gers out there only seek to blame(责备) the authorities and other gers.” Said Miss Gao. “I think they lack responsibilities and there is no value to their posts.” 9.

Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology. Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about? Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,”says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue. Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at and time of day to ask where they are , where they are going, and how their last meeting went. Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so nearbut we didnt meet for the first two weeks!” Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously ( 同时地) on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldnt know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while theyre space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(进入) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth. 13.How do you understandPoint 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate,6？ 15. Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve peoples life? Point 1. b. Point2. c. Point3. d. Point 4. e. Point 5. A. c, d B. a, e C. a, c D. b, e 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 New York visit would be most favorite experience of your. 16 New York is just the place for you and your partner to spent some of the greatest days of your life .Whether it is the Empire State Building or the Statue of Liberty ,you can do a lot to keep yourself suitably yet interestingly engaged during your honeymoon in New York.
