20.Breaking up large classes into several smaller ones (61)helps(help) students,but the improvements in many cases come whatever teachers do,a new research suggests.
New (62)findings(finding) of the research from four nations,tell an interesting story.Small classes work for children,but that's (63)not because of how teachers teach,but because of what students feel they can do:get (64)more (much) face time with their teachers,for instance,or work in small groups with classmates.
"These are the same as what researchers have already known,"Gamoran says.There is no good evidence (65)thatteachers change their instructions based on changes in class size.Teachers are always strict with their students.Some teachers are making use (66)of small classes and others are not.There are a lot of differences."It's not like that you reduce classes so teachers do something different and the achievement is higher,"he says.
In one study,researchers (67)closely(close) watched students'behaviours and found that students behaved better in smaller classes.They also (68)had(have) more direct communication with teachers and worked more in small groups rather by themselves.
One team,(69)led(lead) by Ronald Ehrenberg of Cornell University,finds that the potential benefits of class-size reduction"may be greater than what we observed"if only a few teachers change their teaching (70)to fit (fit) the smaller group.

分析 本文講述了小班化教學(xué)的優(yōu)點,以及實現(xiàn)小班化教學(xué)過程中會遇到的困難.

解答 61.helps 62.findings 63.not 64.more 65.that
66.of 67.closely 68.had 69.led 70.to fit
61.helps 考查動詞第三人稱單數(shù)形式.本句的主語是"Breaking up large classes into several smaller ones"這個短句,所以動詞應(yīng)該使用第三人稱單數(shù)形式,故填"helps".
62.findings 考查名詞單復(fù)數(shù)形式."finding發(fā)現(xiàn)"為可數(shù)名詞,由于前面沒有冠詞,所以應(yīng)該使用復(fù)數(shù)形式.故填"findings".
63.not 考查固定搭配.根據(jù)下一句的"but"可知,這里填入"not".not…but 不是…而是.故填"not".
64.more 考查比較級.根據(jù)句意,小班教學(xué)可以讓學(xué)生和老師見面的次數(shù)更多.故填"more".
65.that 考查固定句型.根據(jù)固定句型 there is no…that,沒有.可知,應(yīng)補上"that".故填"that".
66.of 考查介詞搭配.根據(jù)固定句型make use of 使用、利用.可知,應(yīng)搭配介詞"of".故填"of".  
67.closely 考查副詞.根據(jù)后面的動詞"watched"可知,此處要用一個副詞來修飾動詞.故填"closely".
68.had 考查動詞.根據(jù)and后面的"worked more in small groups rather by themselves"中的動詞"worked"可知,本句話使用一般過去時.故填"had".
69.led 考查被動語態(tài).根據(jù)后面的"by"可知,該處為省略be動詞的被動語態(tài).故填"led".
70.to fit 考查不定式.根據(jù)句意可知,這里要填入不定式以表目的.句意:如果只有少數(shù)教師改變自己的教學(xué)方式以適應(yīng)更小的班級.故填"to fit".

點評 語法填空是通過語篇在語境中考查語法知識的運用能力,在解題前應(yīng)快速瀏覽短文掌握大意,在讀懂短文的基礎(chǔ)上,結(jié)合短文提供的特定的語言環(huán)境去逐句分析.要解決好語法填空,離不開堅實的語法知識,有了堅實的語法知識才能對語言進行正確的分析和判斷,從而答對題目.

8.In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music,dance and theater in Edinburgh.The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
At the same time,the"Fringe"appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theater groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University,and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theater by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the"Fringe",once less recognized,has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theater,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts.And yet as early as 1959,with only 19 theater groups performing,some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971,and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.
32.What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at he beginning?A
A.To bring Europe together again.
B.To honor heroes of World War 11.

35.We may learn from the text that Edinburgh FestivalD.

9.Something I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema to watch a great film.It's two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life.But when I kick back in my seat to enjoy the film and tuck into my box of popcorn,I'm often  irritated by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still,talking to someone.
It's no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such anger,that the company had to withdraw the idea.People said it was'the worst idea ever'!Surely,going to watch the latest film is just that-watching not multi-screening.And if you're out with a friend it seems very antisocial or just rude.I certainly get distracted by the click-click on someone's mobile keyboard as they text and the glow of the bright small phone screen-why aren't they concentrating on the big screen?!
But with the availability of streaming films at home and cheap DVDs,cinemas are struggling to keep their customers.Some places now offer comfortable seats with complimentary snacks and drinks so maybe trying to attract a younger audience by allowing the use of mobile phones is the way forward?A survey in 2012found that a majority of 18-to-34-year-olds believed using social media while watching a movie would add to their experience.
However,not every young person wants to multi-task at the movies.Many of us still get annoyed by the theatre staff who appear not to do anything about it.Of course,we could ask the offenders to turn their phones off but as Adam Aron,head of AMC Entertainment,said in Variety magazine,"when you tell a 22-year-old to turn off the phone,don't ruin the movie,they hear‘please cut off your left arm above the elbow'."Clearly this is not what I would like to see but if you want to use your mobile phone in the cinema that I'm at,please don't sit next to me!What do you think is the right thing to do?
28.The underline word"irritated"in Paragraph 1meansC.
A.terrified      
B.depressed      
C.a(chǎn)nnoyed      
D.embarrassed
29.Which of the following is True of the US cinema chain's original advice?B
A.The advice was carried out smoothly.
B.They permitted people to use the phone.
C.The advice was very popular with people.
D.They prohibited people to use the phone.
30.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A
A.Young people use their social media frequently.
B.The cinema needn't worry about their customers.
C.People prefer to watch films and DVD at home.
D.Sending messages is the best experience for young people.
31.What is the author's attitude towards multi-task at the movies?D
A.Sympathy.
B.Encouragement.
C.Enthusiasm.
D.Disapproval.

10.‘Kangaroo mothering'helps boost a child's health and intelligence
"Kangaroo mothering",the practice of continuous skin-to-skin contact with a newborn baby,results in healthier,more intelligent and successful children,a new study finds.
A 20-year follow-up research found that those brought up in the kangaroo method scored higher in IQ tests and earned 53% more.They were also found to be less likely to have behavior problems than babies in a control group.
Followers of the method nest their kids in a"kangaroo"position on their chest as soon as possible after birth.Both mother and baby are supposed to go home as quickly as possible.
The technique is often used in cases of premature birth (早產(chǎn)).In such cases,the trained mother acts as the child's main source of stimulation (刺激) and food,in the form of breast feeding.Between 1993and 1996,a group of more than 700prematurely born babies in Columbia were,on the basis of random selection,placed either away from mother or were raised using the kangaroo method.Two decades later,a follow-up survey funded by the Canadian Government has shown that those who went through the latter method benefited by comparison.
Published in the journal Paediatrics,the research shows that kangaroo mothering offered significant protection against early death,with a 3.5% death rate compared to a 7.7% rate in the control group.IQ test also showed a small but significant advantage of 3.5% compared to other infants.
Lead researcher Dr Nathalie Charpak,of the Kangaroo Foundation in Bogota,said the method has"significant,long-lasting social and behavioral protective effects"."We firmly believe that this is a powerful,efficient,scientifically based healthcare intervention that can be used in all settings,from those with very restricted to unrestricted access to healthcare."
The study also found that,compared with babies in the control group,those raised in the kangaroo method went on to develop bigger brains,with significantly larger volumes of gray matter.

63.According to the passage,what is"kangaroo mothering"?C
A.Mothers trying their best to improve their babies'IQs.
B.Mothers raising their babies in bags like kangaroos.
C.Mothers staying in touch with their babies early and constantly.
D.Mothers breastfeeding their babies instead of using milk powder.
64.The underlined word"infants"in Paragraph 5 probably meansA.
A.children B.kangaroos      C.parents  D.researchers
65.What is Dr Nathalie Charpak's attitude toward Kangaroo mothering?D
A.Sceptical.B.Neutral.C.Disapproving.D.Supportive.
66.This passage shows that Kangaroo mothering canB.
A.give children bigger heads
B.benefit children's brain growth
C.reduce the number of premature births
D.solve school children's behavioral problems.
