According to the passage, travel can enable people to .

What does Grandpa George think of the golden ticket?

What does the word “dummy" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

What docs Charlie want to do first with the golden ticket?

Passage 6Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.I love the movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, especially the magic of the 1971 original staring Gene Wilder. It's a wonderful tale of dreams coming true. I've watched it many times. One part of it always makes me feel good about life itself. In fact it has even been an inspiration for me to travel the world.Do you remember when Charlie is telling Grandpa George that he's won a golden ticket to visit the Wonka chocolate factory? He is so excited but then pauses for a moment to remember that their family is very poor. He's a good boy and wants to do the right thing. But when he suggests that they could sell the ticket to earn some money, Grandpa George will have none of it! He's even more excited than Charlie and tells the boy:“There's plenty of money out there. They print more every day. But there are only five of the tickets in the whole world. Only a dummy would give this up for something as common as money. Get that mud off your pants," he says with excitement, You've got a factory to go to!”What great words! With his years of wisdom, he's saying that in his hand he's holding a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This is the moment to do something extraordinary and quite possibly life- changing. There's plenty of money in the world but even all of it won't equal this experience.And so it is with travel. I quickly recognized the truth in the saying "Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.” Wealth is not only defined by our bank balance; it is also in so many other aspects of our life such as unique experiences far from home. Even a treasured photograph or the pride and satisfaction of being able to say "yes, I've been there" can be priceless.In our lives, a golden Wonka ticket is simply the opportunity to do something, If you want to travel and see the world, then embrace the excitement of Grandpa George. Don't worry about the money it's going to cost. You'll be able to earn some later.So, do you have the golden ticket of opportunity? If you do then get that mud off your pants because you've got a world to explore! Twenty years from now you'll have only regret if you don't.Why does the author love the movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

What does the passage mainly talk about?

Which Civil Rights Act is the most significant according to the passage?

Which administration developed the Civil Rights Act of 1964?

When was the Civil Rights Act of 1875 declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court?

Passage 5Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Civil rights legislation consists of acts that are enacted (实施) to prevent discrimination based on race, sex, religion, age, previous condition of enslavement, physical limitation, national origin, and other distinctions. As a result of the mass struggle for equal rights, two landmark pieces of legislation have become the cornerstone of civil rights legislation in the United States the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.Civil rights legislation has a long history in the United States. The Civil Rights Act of 1866 passed despite a failed rejection attempt by Andrew Johnson. The legislation was passed during Reconstruction and aimed to destroy Black Codes, which the southern states had enacted to suppress the rights of newly freed slaves.Another important early piece of civil rights legislation was the Civil Rights Act of 1875. This legislation declared that all individuals had equal access to accommodations, public transportations, and places of amusement such as theaters.The legislation was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1883 and thus left an opening for southern states to enact Jim Crow laws. It was almost 75 years until another civil rights bill was passed. The Civil Rights Act of 1957 created the United States Commission on Civil Rights and strengthened the civil rights division of the Department of Justice, which was to be directed by the attorney general. President Dwight Eisenhower and his administration were all supporters for the bill.Although the Civil Rights Act of 1957 was significant because it gave teeth to the civil rights division of the Justice Department, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was by far the most significant and comprehensive civil rights legislation in U.S. history. The act was passed in response to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy during the beginning of the Johnson presidency. The bill had been developed by the Kennedy administration, in part as a response to the problems encountered by civil rights protesters in Birmingham, Alabama, in the spring of 1963.The legislation was submitted to Congress on June 19, 1963. President Johnson maneuvered (操纵) the bill through Congress. He signed the bill on July 2, 1964. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and subsequent legislation also declared strong legislative policy against discrimination in public schools and colleges,e which assisted in eliminating legal segregation and desegregating (废止种族隔离) southern institutions.What did the southern states enact to suppress the rights of newly freed slaves?

Under the influence of Lehrfeiheit, German Protestant universities .

What did Wissenschaft refer to in 19th century Germany?

Which of the following is included in the German Lehrfreiheit?

What can we learn about the idea of Lehrfreiheit from the passage?

Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.When the American Association of University Professor (AAUP) was organized in 1915, its founders proclaimed an ideal of academic freedom as essential to the definition of a university. At first some academic administrators resisted aspects of the due process in hiring and firing that the AAUP insisted; but within the next two decades academic freedom, more or less as the AAUP had defined it, was widely accepted. By 1940 when an important restatement of the AAUP principles was widely adopted, the ideal had become a standard assumption in American academic thought. Certainly by the end of the era of the early 1950s academic freedom had attained sacred status among professors and was spoken of as though were an ancient absolute associated with universities since the ancient time.The direct inspiration for the modern American conception of academic freedom came, however, from Germany, or at least from the romanticized (理想化的) impressions of Germany that the many thousands of American academics who studied there brought back with them. Particularly important for the American organizers of the academic profession after 1890 was the German Lehrfreiheit (教学自由), referring to freedom for university professors.In Germany this freedom included, first, the rights for professors to teach whatever they chose with a minimum of administrative regulations and, second, the freedom to conduct one's research and to report one's findings in lectures and publications without external restraint. The Americans typically understood Lehrfreiheit as the modern ideal that truth is progressive and that for science to advance it must be freed from tradition and assumption. In 19th century Germany this outlook was associated with the term Wissenschaft (科学), which meant more than just the English word “science," suggesting an ideal scientific research for truth. German Protestant universities only gradually won full approval of such autonomy, including freedom from occasional Christian church interference.Nonetheless, they were always far in advance of American schools and by the time of the establishment of the German Empire Lehrfreiheit had become a legal practice protected by law. It controlled the universities and protected them from direct interference of other interests. In a society far more conscious of status than the United States, Lehrfreiheit did not suggest any general commitment to freedom for all citizens. Once the wider applications of modem Lehrfeiheit were accepted, they were proclaimed as essential to any institution calling itself a "university.”Paragraph 1 mainly talks about_____.
