Should struggling students be banned from clubs and sports?
Getting a bad grade in Rockingham, Vt. could get you kicked off the team! School officials there are considering k*s#5^unew guidelines that would prevent students with bad grades from participating in extracurricular activities, such as sports and clubs. The proposal would affect students in eighth grade and below.
School board member Mike says the policy would motivate students to work harder in school. He drafted a letter to coaches, parents, and after-school program leaders to encourage them to allow only kids who are meeting certain academic standards into their program.
Not everyone gives such policy an A+. Some people argue that no student should be excluded from after-school activities. They say taking part in extracurricular activities can help kids do better in class by improving their participation and concentration skills. They say a 2009 study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that time spent in extracurricular physical activities does not take away from students’ ability to do well in the classroom . In fact, it may even help boost girls’ academic performance.
Students themselves have different opinions.
SCHOOL COMES FIRST
Why not require good grades to participate in those activities?
Kids need to understand that grades are important. School comes first, period. Getting good grades help you with life, help you go to college, get a job, and so on. Banning underachieving students from extracurricular activities not only gives them motivation to get their grades up, but allows more time to study or get help from a tutor.
DON’T BAN STUDENTS
Every student should be able to participate in extracurricular activities, no matter what his or her grades are. Extracurricular activities can help kids concentrate more on doing homework. They can help kids develop mentally and physically.
A school policy that tells kids with bad grades that they can’t be in sports or the school play is like judging a book by its cover. Every student is unique. A kid may have a learning disability, an attention issue, or a difficult time studying in his or her home environment. His or her teachers should find why the student is struggling. Together they should find out a solution that will keep the student in the activity.
72. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “excluded”?
A. protected B. approved C. blamed D. banned
73. What’s the author’s attitude to the policy that prevents students with bad grades from participating in extracurricular activities?
A. supportive B. critical C. neutral D. indifferent
74. In the second paragraph “a 2009 study…”is used by the critics to .
A. To indicate the author is against the policy.
B. To emphasize there is no need to ban the students with bad grades to take part in extracurricular activities.
C. To suggest girls can benefit from extracurricular activities.
D. To prove grades have nothing to do with extracurricular activities.
75. Some don’t think the policy is reasonable for the following reasons EXCEPT .
A. Every kid is unique.
B. Extracurricular activities will benefit students mentally and physically.
C. . Grades will help students get a job.
D. One can learn more that can’t be learned in class.

Information from the pioneer spacecraft
of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) obviously proves
the theory that the burning 900-degree Fahrenheit surface temperature of Venus
(金星) is due to an atmospheric
greenhouse effect caused mainly by a blanket of carbon dioxide. Such a
greenhouse effect is created when energy in the form of sunlight easily passes
through a planet’s atmosphere, warms is surface, and becomes heat radiation
that is then held in by the atmosphere. The orbiting spacecraft has collected
Venus’s atmosphere from top to bottom so that NASA’s scientists are able to
prove the exact amount of sunlight received at various places in the planet’s
atmosphere and on its surface. Measurements of atmosphere, temperature, and radiative
heating foresee Venus’s surface temperature very exactly. The planet is closer
to the Sun than it is to the Earth, and it has a thin atmosphere like the
Earth’s but Venus atmosphere is made up of more than ninety percent carbon
dioxide, compared to less than four percent in that of the Earth. Because of
its higher percentage of carbon dioxide, Venus’s atmosphere receives much more
heat radiation than the Earth’s does. Thus the Venus studies are believed to be
important to the understanding of possible bad effects on Earth’s agriculture
and sea levels that could result from the long-term use of 
fuels, which add carbon
dioxide to the atmosphere．
Notes
1. atmospheric adj．大氣(中)的
2. carbon dioxide 二氧化碳
3．orbit vt.使(人造衛(wèi)星、宇宙飛船等)進入空間軌道；繞軌道運行
4．amount n．總數(shù)，總額
5．compare vt．把……比作(to)
1．Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage?
A．A New Theory
B．Measuring Planetary Temperatures
C．The Journey of Pioneer Spacecraft
D．The Greenhouse Effect on Venus
2．According to the passage, what happens to heat radiation on Venus?
A．It disappears at the planet’s surface．
B．It is received by the atmosphere．
C．It creates energy．
D．It is changed into other kind of energy．
