試題分析：本文講述了教育中非常重要但又被人們忽略了的一個(gè)方面，即自我發(fā)現(xiàn)的藝術(shù)。因?yàn)槲覀兯械母镄潞桶l(fā)現(xiàn)，我們所有的創(chuàng)造力，都出自一個(gè)來(lái)源：就是能夠首先看清那里是什么，不是什么，聽(tīng)清說(shuō)的是什么，不是什么。這就是教會(huì)學(xué)生自我發(fā)現(xiàn)的重要性所在。
小題1:B形容詞辨析。A技術(shù)性的；B重要的；C 嚴(yán)肅的；D常見(jiàn)的，共同的。由下文的敘述可知自我發(fā)現(xiàn)的藝術(shù)是非常重要的。所以B選項(xiàng)正確。
小題2:D動(dòng)詞辨析。A 負(fù)擔(dān)得起；B 告訴；C 重復(fù)；D 問(wèn)。此處用兩個(gè)相同的how to do結(jié)構(gòu)強(qiáng)調(diào)前后的對(duì)比，由answer可以判斷后面填ask ，D選項(xiàng)正確。句意：我們現(xiàn)在的大學(xué)造就的是怎樣給答案的學(xué)生，而不是怎樣提問(wèn)題的學(xué)生。
小題3:C動(dòng)詞辨析。A參加；B 進(jìn)入；C 離開(kāi)；D 欣賞，喜歡。從后句with skills for the workplace,可以判斷是畢業(yè)后去工作崗位，故C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題4:C名詞辨析。A 學(xué)習(xí)；B 工作；C 生活；D 思考。從with no knowledge of how to live可知此處仍然指的是生活，句意：沒(méi)有怎樣生活的知識(shí)，或者為什么而生活的知識(shí)。C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題5:A名詞辨析。A藝術(shù)；B 主題；C 主意；D 風(fēng)格，文體。文章開(kāi)頭提出 the art of self-discovery，自我發(fā)現(xiàn)的藝術(shù)，傾聽(tīng)的藝術(shù)，從內(nèi)容的平列可知后面應(yīng)該是服從的藝術(shù)，A為正確選項(xiàng)。
小題6:C名詞辨析。A聽(tīng)；B 說(shuō)；C讀；D寫。從下句True reading is not just passing…可知此處指的是閱讀，故C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題7:D名詞辨析。A嘴唇；B 胳膊；C 手；D眼睛。從常識(shí)可知閱讀時(shí)目光掠過(guò)文字， 所以D 選項(xiàng)正確。
小題8:A動(dòng)詞辨析。A收集；B遞送，發(fā)布；C 送； D 傳遞。從常理可知人們閱讀的目的是為了獲取信息，了解情況。所以A選項(xiàng)正確。閱讀不僅僅是目光掠過(guò)文字，或者收集信息，或者是理解所讀的內(nèi)容。
小題9:B形容詞辨析。A本地的；B有創(chuàng)造性的；C 偵探；D敏感的。從下文內(nèi)容可知閱讀時(shí)大腦要對(duì)所讀到的東西進(jìn)行加工處理，得到一些新的東西，這是一個(gè)創(chuàng)造性的過(guò)程，所以B選項(xiàng)正確。
小題10:B名詞辨析。A感激，欣賞；B想象力；Ｃ 呈現(xiàn)；D指示。根據(jù)常識(shí)人們?cè)陂喿x時(shí)，會(huì)運(yùn)用想象力使所讀的內(nèi)容以畫面的形式出現(xiàn)在眼前。所以B選項(xiàng)正確。
小題11:A名詞辨析。A 行業(yè)，散步；B 種類；C 邊，面；D物件。All walks of life 是固定短語(yǔ)“各行各業(yè)”，所以選A。
小題12:C副詞辨析。A一般說(shuō)來(lái)；B 顯然；C 實(shí)際上；D 故意地。從下文They only read what is。。。判斷可知此處指人們盡管專業(yè)，但是實(shí)際上也沒(méi)有真正地讀眼前的東西。所以C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題13:D副詞辨析。A 甚至；B 永遠(yuǎn)；Ｃ仍然；D已經(jīng)。從上文可知他們讀的僅僅是字面的意思，沒(méi)有運(yùn)用想象力創(chuàng)造性的讀出新內(nèi)容來(lái)，所以D選項(xiàng)正確。
小題14:B名詞辨析。A 主題；B 頁(yè)；C 科目，話題；D 書。從語(yǔ)境可知作者指的是人們?cè)谧x這篇文章時(shí)，所以B選項(xiàng)正確。
小題15:A名詞辨析。A創(chuàng)造力；B可能性；C 程序；D 項(xiàng)目。由上文innovations, our discoveries可以推斷此處應(yīng)該是和革新、發(fā)現(xiàn)同類的褒義詞，所以A選項(xiàng)正確。

We are fortunate to be living in a time when all people have the ability to access any knowledge they desire. This digital society that we live in affords us opportunities that our ancestor only dreamed of having. We should not take this privilege for granted.
In the not so distant past of the 1950s, people who wanted to research an idea, a product, or anything else, had to go to a library where they could look up information in books. Not all people had the same access to the books, and the information they contained. In America, if your skin was black, you could not use the same library that a person with white skin used. If a black skinned person was allowed access to a library, it most likely was stocked with outdated books that white skinned people had discarded.
In the digital society we live in today, the color of your skin does not determine the access you have to information. Technology has brought to us the powerful tools like the Internet where we can find information on almost every subject.
Access to the Internet has allowed us to research the things we are planning to purchase. We are capable of comparing prices on things like insurance, appliances, entertainment, clothing, and all other things. We also now have the ability to purchase items online without ever leaving our homes. We have been freed from the restrictions of store hours, and regional sales. A person in America can purchase a product from a person in Germany, without leaving home.
Because of the digital society we live in our children can learn about anything they are interested in. When they ask you what the dinosaurs ate, you can look it up, and tell them the answer. Because of this people will be smarter in the future, and technology will only improve.
小題1:By “We should not take this privilege for granted”, the writer means that ______.
A．we have special right to do anything
B．it is wrong to make use of the privilege
C．knowledge is important in the digital society
D．we should seize the chances the modern society offers
小題2:The main idea of the fourth paragraph is that ______.
A．the Internet brings us a lot of convenience
B．people in modern society are mostly wealthy
C．we would like to stay at home every day
D．we can find anything we like in the world
小題3:The dinosaurs are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to tell us that _____.
A．people will be much clever than ever
B．what the dinosaurs ate seems strange to us
C．finding out what the dinosaurs looked like is easy
D．we can learn knowledge with the help of technology
小題4:The writer’s attitude toward the digital society is ______.
A．criticalB．positiveC．neutralD．negative

Tre’S mom，Christina Thompson, cannot believe how much her son already learned this year in his full-day, free pre-school class in Oklahoma City. “Since he’s been in school his vocabulary has increased surprisingly,” Thompson says. “The other day he came home and said, ‘You know what ，mom? You are being ridiculous，” Thompson laughs quietly. “And then he asked, ‘Do you know what ‘ridiculous’ means, mom?’” Tre knows the entire alphabet, his numbers to 100，and he’s starting to read. And letters and numbers aside, Thompson is most struck by how fast Tre is absorbing vocabulary and language.
Of course, not all pre-school is created equal. High quality pre-schools have well-trained, well-educated teachers in the classroom (much like Tre Thompson’s teacher Mrs. Wallace, who uses play-based learning to teach both academics and social skills and can rattle off (飛快說(shuō)出） a battery of data on how well her students are progressing towards their year-end goals). Texas can also offer a model for educator development: its Texas School Ready! Campaign has proven to increase the quality of participating pre-schools by providing early childhood teachers with coaching, professional development, research-based curriculum (課程)，and progress monitoring. States and districts should also combine pre-school with the K-12 system, as Oklahoma does ，so that children enter kindergarten smoothly.
Oklahoma is one of the leading states in providing students like Tre with free ，full-day pre-school. And the results are already paying off: According to a 2012 study, Oklahoma kids that went through pre-school showed vocabulary gains 28% higher than those of children without pre-school, and math gains 44% higher than non-pre-school kids. And we know that high-quality pre-school doesn’t just mean higher scores in elementary school. They were more likely to have graduated from high school and less likely to have committed a violent crime. They also earned more money and were more likely to be employed.
We know pre-school works, so let’s stop talking and start building a system where all children have access to excellent early childhood education. As any well-educated four year old could tell us, not doing so would be ridiculous.
小題1:The case of Tre in the first paragraph serves as the evidence of______.
A．children’s disrespect towards parents
B．the bad performance of students at school
C．the positive effect of pre-school on children
D．Thompson’s doubt about her son’s education
小題2:At high quality pre-schools, children may learn by______
A．playingB．modellingC．researchingD．monitoring
小題3:It can be inferred that______.
A．children can not enter kindergarten without pre-school
B．Oklahoma is the best state offering full-day pre-school
C．a(chǎn)ll pre-schools have well-trained, well-educated teachers
D．kids with pre-school may be better equipped for their future
小題4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Not all pre-school works
B．All pre-school is created equal
C．We owe our kids universal pre-school
D．Pre-school goes well with K-12 system

Students in many countries are learning English. Some of these students are small children. Others are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others by themselves. A few learn English by learning the language over the radio, on TV, or in film. One must work hard to learn another language.

“A very destructive seven-year old child kicked my legs and scratched at my hand,” said one teacher. “I broke up a fight and was kicked,” said another. Many people have heard stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.
Every child, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born, has the right to achieve their potential, regardless of their parents’ wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation, it is a long way to achieve this goal. But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of neglecting the latter.
Far too many children are behaving badly at school, even to the point of being violent to staff. This is terrible enough，but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behavior of their parents. Too many are starting school unable to hold a knife and fork, unused to eating at a table，and unable to use the lavatory properly.
We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom, once a place to sleep, has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.
Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their children’s behavior and sticking to those boundaries when the going gets tough. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources---time---so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.
小題1:What problem do people ignore in the writer’s opinion?
A．The school violence
B．The pressure of students’ learning
C．The right to achieve students’ potential
D．Students’ responsibilities
小題2:The writer’s attitude to the behaviors of parents may be that of        .
A．dissatisfactionB．sympathyC．understandingD．tolerance
小題3:The underlined part in Paragraph 4 may mean        .
A．children don’t live with their parents in the same room
B．parents care little about children’s life at home
C．children spend little time with their parents at home
D．parents attempt to establish a good relationship with their children
小題4:From the last paragraph,we can infer that      .
A．school can’t correct the wrongs that society does to teachers
B．teachers have no responsibility for playing the role of parents
C．parents should spend time with children making them ready to learn
D．students are responsible for making themselves known in society
小題5:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Children’s behavior at school is worrying people
B．Parents expect schools to correct their children’s bad habits
C．There is no point in parents’teaching children at home
D．Don’t blame teachers when it’s parents who are failing

Pupils remember more and behave better when 3D images are used in lessons, research suggests. They are quicker to learn and absorb new concepts, and display higher levels of concentration.
Professor Anne Bamford, of the University of the Arts, London, studied the effectiveness of 3D content in 15 schools across seven countries, including the UK. Pupils in 3D classes could remember more than those in the 2D classes after four weeks, improving test scores by an average 17 percent compared with eight percent for 2D lessons. They gave more detailed answers to the tasks and were more likely to think in 3D, using hand gestures and mime (模仿動(dòng)作) to answer the test questions successfully.

The teachers commented that the pupils in the 3D groups had deeper understanding, increased attention span, more motivation and higher engagement in the lessons
Children are used to 3D with the rise of computer games that use the technology—90 percent of those in the study had seen a 3D film. Schools would need 3D-enabled projectors（投影儀）, laptops with good picture capabilities, 3D software and glasses for children to introduce animations (動(dòng)作) into classrooms.
But Danny Nicholson, an educationist, said the technology would be impractical to use in schools and could be too expensive. He said,“While I think the idea of 3D technology is very interesting, I worry that 3D is a bit of an expensive gimmick (小玩意兒). There are a few cases where a true 3D image might help, but most of the time, good 2D models that can be moved , would be just so effective.”
In Colorado, the US, one school district is already in the process of having 1,000 3D projectors fixed in classrooms. And the University of Caledonia, which carries out scientific research into the Lake Tabon Basin, has used 3D presentations with Grade Six pupils. Those who watched the 3D presentations were more engaged and reported a general increase in their interest in science compared with students who watched the 2D version.
小題1:Teachers think pupils in 3D classes      .
A．a(chǎn)re naughtier than those in 2D classesB．have less motivation
C．find it hard to concentrateD．have deeper understanding
小題2:Danny Nicholson tends to think that      .
A．many pupils prefer 2D models
B．3D is a bit expensive for some schools
C．true 3D images would not help in classes
D．3D technology has a bright future in classes
小題3:What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．3D classes will soon be given in one school district in Colorado.
B．Teachers will use the 3D technology through specific training.
C．Many pupils are now more interested in science than before.
D．3D technology will replace 2D models in the future.
小題4:What is the text mainly about?
A．2D models are always more effective than 3D images.
B．The differences between 3D and 2D images.
C．How schools can make full use of 3D technology.
D．Pupils behave better when 3D images are used in classes.
小題5:Where is the text most probably taken from?
A．A history book.B．A news story
C．A science magazine.D．A school report.

Among the Boys is a unique after-school program for boys living in the Highland Park neighborhood of our city. The organizational task is to provide males living in low-income and public housing with opportunities to discover their ability to change challenges into possibilities. The program includes an academic part as well as specific plans for supporting the overall development of the participants. Among the Boys uses painting as an instrument for helping boys examine their world, discuss it, and develop positive ways of handling the challenges they face daily. Young men present personal challenges to the group, such as a recent fight or the long-term drug abuse they observe in their neighborhood. After guided discussion, the youth work as a team, determining how to best represent the issue at hand in a painting. The resulting paintings and explanations of these paintings provided by the young people suggest that something profound(深遠(yuǎn)的) occurs through this process. These young men are learning a healthy way to express and cope with the pain and suffering they feel. Art serves as a healing process and a structured method of teaching teamwork, nonviolent values, conflict handling and problem-solving skills.
Activities in Among the Boys are in agreement with the best practices in the prevention of high-risk behavior. First, community-based youth development programs are considered important parts of a comprehensive prevention method, particularly in high-risk neighborhoods. Second, compensatory(補(bǔ)償) education that targets at risk youth for academic failure is also considered an effective prevention method. Third, interventions(介入) aimed at improving youth’s moral reasoning, social problem-solving, and thinking skills are reported to be effective methods for reducing violence in high-risk populations, especially when carried out with elementary school-aged boys. Finally, Among the Boys has an adapted tutoring part, considered an effective prevention tool. Tutoring is typically a one-to-one match between a tutor and a youth, but Among the Boys employs what is referred to as “group tutoring.” Among the Boys makes up for its high student-tutor ratio(比例) with quality and quantity of time, as the program meets after school, on Saturdays, and all day during the summer, and is staffed primarily by males, an unusual quality among educational programs.
Among the Boys is rare and successful form of grassroots program, and represents the dream of a successful male who grew up in the Highland Park neighborhood and has returned to make a valuable contribution to his community.
