[单项选择]Passage Two

California has a new program called the Digital Textbook Initiative. "Starting this fall with high school math and science, we will be the first state in the nation to provide schools with a state-approved list of digital textbooks. " That was Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in June,talking about his effort to get schools to use materials available free online. He listed reasons why he thinks digital textbooks make sense. California approves traditional textbooks in six-year cycles. Digital ones can offer the latest information. They lighten the load of school bags. They save paper and trees, and make learning more fun and interactive. And above all, he said, they help schools with their finances. The state has had to make severe cuts in school spending because of deep financial problems. More than six million students atten A. will probably take effect in six years B. covers all the high school subjects C. has been approved by all states D. is advocated by California state governor 查看答案 更多"Passage Two California has"的相关试题: [单项选择]Passage Two California has a new program called the Digital Textbook Initiative.

A working laboratory model of a new system of radar that makers use of a beam of light is said to be ten thousand times more accurate than the best comparable system of radar that uses microwaves. The model has shown that this radar system can measure with absolute precision speeds varying from spaceship orbital injection velocities of five miles per second down to virtual stops-speeds of less than one ten-thousandth of an inch per second. According to the scientists who are developing this system, such fine measures of velocity are of prime importance in space missions. In a rendezvous between two spaceships, or in a landing approach by a vehicle onto an orbiting space station, a bump could rip(划破) open a ship's skin, or a nudge could knock the station out of its orbit. The light-beam radar, which operates at a frequency of trillions(万亿) of cycles per second, could easily dete A. is the first radar system to work in space B. is more precise than microwave radar C. is easier to operate than microwave radar D. will work on the earth's surface as well as in space 查看答案 [单项选择]Passage Five The California condor is the largest bird in North America.
