Passage 45

 (山东诸城等四县市2008年高考适应性训练C篇)

Restaurants in Europe,the United States and Japan are testing technology to let diners older their food direct from a semen at their table instead of depending on a fellow human being to note their choice.

     Besides cutting costs,companies that sell the “e-menu” argue the bytes-for-bites approach has a novelty(有新意的)value that can lure younger customers,and various photographs of steaks and gooey desserts tempt diners to order more.It also could extend the TV dinner.How about a computer-game dinner?

     “It's about impulse-buying.” said Adi Chitayat,Conceptie's chief executive.“If a person starts looking at pictures of chocolate cake,the chances are he'll order it.” Frame,a trendy sushi restaurant in Tel Aviv which has installed the system,said sales on tables with the e-menu have increased by about 11 percent.Customers often call ahead to reserve spots equipped with the screens,manager Natalie Edry told Reuters.

   At one of the e-menu tables,information technology worker Gil Uriel and his young family were enthusiastic as they checked out pictures of the dishes on offer and squabbled over desserts.“It's more visual.” said Uriel,as his children clicked away furiously on a games function between courses.“We can still choose,we con still argue-but it's much easier when you call all see it.”

Passage 44

(山东省聊城市2008年高三年级模拟(四)C篇)

Proper arrangement of classroom space is important to encouraging interaction. Most of us have noticed how important physical setting is to efficiency and comfort in our work. College classroom space should be designed to encourage the activity of critical thinking.

We have entered the 21 st century, but step into almost any college classroom and you step back in time at least a hundred years. Desks are normally in straight rows, so students can clearly see the teacher but not all their classmates. The message behind such an arrangement is obvious. Everything of importance comes from the teacher.

With a little imagination and effort, unless desks are fixed to the floor, the teacher can correct this situation and create space that encourage interchange among students. In small or standard-size classes, chairs, desks, and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways. The primary goal should be for everyone to be able to see everyone else. Large classes, particularly those held in lecture halls, unfortunately, allow much less flexibility.

Arrangement of the classroom should also make it easy to divide students into small groups for discussion or problem-solving exercises. Small classes with movable desks and tables present no problem. Even in large lecture halls, it is possible for students to turn around and form groups of four to six. Breaking a class into small groups provides more opportunities for students to interact with each other, think out loud, and see how other students’ thinking processes operate all essential elements in developing new modes of critical thinking.

In courses that regularly use a small group format, students might be asked to stay in the same small groups throughout the course. A colleague of mine, John, allows students to move around during the first two weeks, until they find a group they are comfortable with. John then asks them to stay in the same seat, with the same group, from that time on. This not only creates a comfortable setting for interaction but helps him learn students’ names and faces.
