　　Ⅰ. 阅读理解

　　AA survey of professors finds that most see online courses as inferior to in-class lessons—but those who have taught online are more open to their potential. Larry Greenemeier reports The New York Times calls 2017“the year of the MOOC(网络开放课程). ”But lots of open online courses still fail to get high marks from most educators.

　　In a recent survey of more than 2, 200 professors, only one in five thought that online courses could be as effective as classroom curricula(课程). Their biggest concern: limited interaction between teachers and students. The survey was done by Gallup and the website Inside Higher Ed. Respondents linked MOOC credibility to whether an online course was offered by an qualified school and to a student’s ability to receive credits.

　　The doubt from the faculty of the schools isn’t surprising. New technologies often turn those well-prepared products and services into goods without little excitement, something no teacher wants. On the other hand, refusing to change, especially when it involves computers, tends to be a losing strategy in most fields.

　　One of the important points in the data is that much MOOC criticism comes from faculty who’ve never taught an online course. Of the 30 percent of professors polled(被投票的)who had taught a MOOC, most thought that online courses can deliver roughly the same results as the classroom ones.

　　【文章大意】2017年被称为“网络开放课程之年”。很多人都在质疑网络开放课程的有效性和它的可信度。有人认为这种课程把一些精心准备的产品和服务变成了平淡无奇的商品, 这些都不是老师们想要的。关于调查数据的可信度也遭到了质疑。

　　I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate“Yes! ”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.

　　But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stepped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.

　　Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. They arranged babysitting for my two-year-old daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. Even when I was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter!

　　Food is all about comfort. It feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. When you hear people talking about their favourite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food. I know that I will have many more opportunities in my lifetime to prepare food for others. It is truly a gift I want to prepare and deliver to someone in need.

　　【文章大意】作者的母亲过世的时候, 社区教堂中的女人给她带过食物; 作者怀孕的时候, 社区教堂中的女人也同样给她带过食物, 并帮她照顾她两岁的女儿。因此, 今天有人需要帮助的时候, 作者也非常愿意伸出援手。

　　A. had to stay in bed for several weeks

Still, it felt　6　to be in my own place for the first time. After the first few weeks, 　7　, the thrill faded and　8　set in. I found myself sitting alone each night　9　my home and my parents.

　　My summer holidays had always been a　10　time. I spent hours playing basketball and swimming. I talked to my Mom while she tended her flowers. I　11　helping my Dad drag firewood for the winter. And every night I sat at a dinner table full of delicious food　12　with love while my family filled the room with the sound of sweet　13　. Now I found myself missing them　14　than ever.

　　Finally when my　15　were at their lowest, I heard a　16　at the door. I opened it and was　17　to see my parents standing there with big smiles to fill my　18　heart and a box full of food to feed my hungry friends. We spent the afternoon eating, 　19　on each other’s news, and just being together. It felt so good, and I felt so loved.
