I waited 14 years to do something that I should have done in my first year of teaching: shadow a student for a day.
This is the first year I am working in a school but not teaching my own classes. Being the High School Learning Coach, my job is to work with teachers and administrators to improve students’ learning outcomes.
As part of getting my feet wet, the headmaster suggested I “be” a student for a day: I was to complete all the work of a 10th-grade student: if there were notes on the board, I copied them as fast as I could into my notebook; if there was an experiment, I did it with my host student; if there was a test, I took it.
I could not believe how dog-tired I was after the day, because I literally sat down the whole day, except for walking to and from classes. We forget as teachers, because we are on our feet a lot — in front of the board, walking as we speak, circling around the room to check on student work…. we move a lot.
But students almost never move, because in every class, the expectation was for us to come in, take our seats, and sit down for the whole class. Therefore, by the end of the day I was eager to move. I had planned to go back to my office and write down some notes on the day, but I was so exhausted that I couldn’t do anything but watch TV and I was in bed by 8:30.
If I could go back and change my classes now, I would immediately change the following three things:
1. mandatory stretch halfway through the class;
2. put a basketball hoop on the back of my door and encourage kids to play in the first and final minutes of class;
3. build a hands-on, move-around activity into every single class day.
4. Why did the headmaster suggest the author do the task?
A. To help the author with her new job. B. To allow the author to realize her dream.
C. To let the author learn from other teachers. D. To test whether the author was a good coach.
5. What was the author supposed to do in class?
A Instruct the students how to take notes. B. Find out what subject the students liked.
C. Do what the students were required to do. D. Teach students to do chemical experiments.
6. How did the author feel after the day?
A. She lost interest in TV. B. She had pity for students.
C. She felt unsatisfied with the school. D. She thought teachers move too much.
7. What do the three changes have in common?
A. They are after-class activities. B. They encourage students to love sports.
C. They prevent students from sitting too long. D. They are good for both teachers and students.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】

推理判断题。根据第二段“Being the High School Learning Coach, my job is to work with teachers and administrators to improve students’ learning outcomes.

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“I was to complete all the work of a 10th-grade student: if there were notes on the board, I copied them as fast as I could into my notebook; if there was an experiment, I did it with my host student; if there was a test, I took it.(我必须完成十年级学生的所有工作:如果黑板上有笔记,我就以最快的速度抄到笔记本上;如果有实验,我就和我的寄宿生一起做;如果有考试,我就要参加)”可知,作者在课堂上应该做学生被要求做的事。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“I could not believe how dog-tired I was after the day, because I literally sat down the whole day, except for walking to and from classes. We forget as teachers, because we are on our feet a lot — in front of the board, walking as we speak, circling around the room to check on student work…. we move a lot.(我简直不敢相信一天之后我是如此疲惫,因为我真的坐了一整天,除了走路上下课。作为老师,我们常常会忘记,因为我们经常站着——在黑板前,一边说话一边走路,在教室里转圈查看学生的作业……我们经常走动)”可推知,一天之后作者感觉同情学生。故选B。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“But students almost never move, because in every class, the expectation was for us to come in, take our seats, and sit down for the whole class.(但学生们几乎从不动,因为在每节课上,他们期望都是等着我们进来,坐好,然后坐满整个班级)”以及最后三段“1. mandatory stretch halfway through the class; 2. put a basketball hoop on the back of my door and encourage kids to play in the first and final minutes of class; 3. build a hands-on, move-around activity into every single class day.(1. 上课中途必须做伸展运动;2. 在我的门后挂一个篮球筐,鼓励孩子们在第一节课和最后一节课上打球;3.在每个上课的日子里都建立一个动手的活动)”可知,这三个变化的共同点是都是为了防止学生坐太久。故选C。
C
Jack White is a 17-year-old student who has already published (发表) a collection of poetry with a local publisher. Jack believes switching (转) to an all-boys school from his coed (男女同校) high school changed his life.
“When I was at my coed school, poetry was for girls, not boys. Guys were supposed to like subject s like math, computers, and science. When I wrote poems, the guys at school used to make fun of me and girls didn’t want to date me. At my new school, things are different. I don’t worry what girls are thinking since there aren’t any.”
Jack may not realize that boys and girls also learn and think differently based on specific (具体的) biological developments. These differences affect how and when boys and girls learn, so single-sex education is actually better for children.
Take, for example, brain development. The areas of the brain related to language, feelings, physical coordination (协调), and social relationships, develop in a different order and speed in girls and boys. Research has shown that girls’ brains develop the connections between language and emotions earlier than boys’ brains. In a single-sex classroom, everyone’s brain is developing at similar speeds, so teachers can teach according to their students’ actual abilities.
Boys and girls also have different hearing abilities. Girls have a sense of hearing which is two to four times better than boys. Women teachers often speak more quietly, so boys may have more difficulty hearing a woman teacher if she is talking in her “normal” voice. The teacher needs to speak louder to get the boys’ attention. In a single-sex school, teachers do not have to keep adjusting (调整) their voice.
Jack might not be aware of the biological arguments why single-sex education is better, but he realizes that he is learning faster at his new school. As Jack says, “I hated writing and studying English in my old coed school, but now I’m a published poet! My new school helped me become comfortable with who I really am.”
8. What do we know about Jack’s former (以前的) school?
A. It published Jack’s poetry collection. B. It was a school attended by both sexes.
C. It didn’t provide native language classes. D. It discouraged students from writing poems.
9. Why does the author say single-sex education is better for children?
A. Girls are smarter than boys. B. Boys are easily attracted by girls.
C. Girls have natural differences from boys. D. Boys and girls are good at different subjects.
10. What will probably happen in a single-sex classroom?
A. Students make progress at the same speed. B. Students learn to express themselves freely.
C. Teachers speak louder to make themselves heard. D. Teachers match lesson plans with student abilities.
11. Jack thinks that his new school has helped him to ________.
A. raise awareness of education B. find confidence in learning
C. improve ability to publish D. reduce chance of dating
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Jack White从男女同校转到男校后,不仅改变了自己的生活,还成为了一名发表诗集的诗人,并借此探讨了单性别教育的好处。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Jack believes switching (转) to an all-boys school from his coed (男女同校) high school changed his life. (Jack相信从男女同校的高中转到全男生学校改变了他的生活)”可知,Jack以前的学校是男女同校的。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Jack may not realize that boys and girls also learn and think differently based on specific (转) biological developments. These differences affect how and when boys and girls learn, so single-sex education is actually better for children.( Jack可能没有意识到,男孩和女孩也会根据特定的生物发展而学习和思考不同。这些差异影响了男孩和女孩如何以及何时学习,因此单性别教育实际上对孩子更好)”可知,作者说单性别教育对孩子更好是因为男孩和女孩有天然的差异。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“In a single-sex classroom, everyone’s brain is developing at similar speeds, so teachers can teach according to their students’ actual abilities. (在单性别教室里,每个人的大脑发展速度相似,所以老师可以根据学生的实际能力进行教学)”可知,在单性别教室里,老师会根据学生的实际能力进行教学,即老师会将教学计划与学生的能力相匹配。故选D项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“As Jack says, ‘I hated writing and studying English in my old coed school, but now I’m a published poet! My new school helped me become comfortable with who I really am.’ (正如Jack所说,‘我以前在男女同校的时候讨厌写作和学习英语,但现在我是一名发表诗作的诗人!我的新学校帮助我变得对自己真正的样子感到自在。’)”可知,Jack认为他的新学校帮助他在学习上找到了自信。故选B项。
D
“Helicopter (直升机) parenting” describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protective and do too much. The term describes parents who hover over their kids at home and on the playground like a helicopter. Today, modern technology allows these helicopter parents to hover from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.
Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adult: Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kids for Success. In her book, she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style. She also explains why parents should stop it.
Julie Lythcott-Haims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting first- hand when she worked as dean of first- year students at Stanford University. The incoming students, or freshmen, she says, were very smart and accomplished on paper. But many were unable to take care of themselves. “They were turning to parents constantly for guidance, for problem- solving, to have them make the choice about something.”
Lythcott-Haims warns this kind of parenting has many short-term wins but long-term costs that harm the child. She uses an area common to most children-a playground. Lythcott-Haims suggests letting your child get a little hurt.
“If you do your child’s homework, it will be perfect. That is what she calls the short- term win. The long-term cost is that your child may not feel capable. And he does not become a determined learner, meaning he will give up easily when faced with a difficult problem to solve.” So what can parents do if they want to break the over-parenting “helicopter” cycle? Reading Julie’s book, you can follow some ways to stop hovering over your children. In a word, when kids have all the skills to take care of themselves, they will be prepared for adulthood.
12. The underlined words “hover over” in Paragraph I probably mean “______”.
A. deal with B. fly over C. stare at D. circle around
13. What does the “helicopter parent” believe?
A. Short- term wins can harm the kids. B. Getting protection from parents is necessary.
C. Trying to make decisions should be valued. D. Learning from failure is helping kids.
14. What should parents do for their children based on Julie’s study?
A. Encourage them to do what they can do. B. Help them grow with parents’ protection.
C. Guide them in doing as parents do or say. D. Prevent them from playing on a playground.
15. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Break the Over- Parenting Cycle B. How to Help Adults with Their Problems
C. Helicopter Parenting Is Well Worth Trying D. Helping Children Too Much Is Hurting Them
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,讨论了直升机式育儿的负面影响,并提供了如何打破这种过度保护循环的建议。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“The term describes parents who … their kids at home and on the playground like a helicopter.(这个术语描述了父母像直升机一样在孩子身边……)”可知,此处说的是父母围在孩子身边,就像直升机一样,可推理出“hover over”意味着像直升机一样在周围盘旋,故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据原文第五段“If you do your child’s homework, it will be perfect. That is what she calls the short-term win. The long-term cost is that your child may not feel capable.(如果你帮你的孩子做作业,那将是完美的。这就是她所说的短期胜利。长期的代价是你的孩子可能觉得自己不够能干)”可知,直升机父母认为从父母那里获得保护是必要的,故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“Reading Julie’s book, you can follow some ways to stop hovering over your children. In a word, when kids have all the skills to take care of themselves, they will be prepared for adulthood. (通过阅读朱莉的书,你可以遵循一些方法来停止在你孩子的上空盘旋。总之,当孩子们拥有了照顾自己的所有技能时,他们就为成年做好了准备)”可知,基于朱莉的研究,父母应该停止直升机模式,让孩子拥有照顾自己的所有技能,为成年做好准备,可推理出此处说的是应该鼓励孩子们做他们能做的事情,故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段““Helicopter (直升机) parenting” describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protective and do too much. The term describes parents who hover over their kids at home and on the playground like a helicopter. Today, modern technology allows these helicopter parents to hover from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.( “直升机式育儿”描述的是一种养育孩子的方式,其中父母过度保护并做得过多。这个术语描述了像直升机一样在家和游乐场上盘旋在孩子周围的父母。如今,现代技术使这些直升机父母甚至能从远处盘旋。他们可以随时随地给他们的孩子指导)”、第二段“Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adult: Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kids for Success. In her book, she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style. She also explains why parents should stop it.( Julie Lythcott-Haims写了一本名为《如何养育成年人:摆脱过度养育的陷阱,为孩子的成功做好准备》的书。在书中,她让读者更深入地了解这种育儿方式,并解释了为什么父母应该停止这种方式)”、第四段“Lythcott-Haims warns this kind of parenting has many short-term wins but long-term costs that harm the child. She uses an area common to most children-a playground. Lythcott-Haims suggests letting your child get a little hurt(莱思科特-海姆斯警告说,这种育儿方式虽然短期内看似成功,但长期来看却会对孩子造成伤害。她以大多数孩子共同的活动区域——操场为例,建议让孩子们受点小伤)”以及最后一段“Reading Julie’s book, you can follow some ways to stop hovering over your children. In a word, when kids have all the skills to take care of themselves, they will be prepared for adulthood. (通过阅读朱莉的书,你可以遵循一些方法来停止在你孩子的上空盘旋。总之,当孩子们拥有了照顾自己的所有技能时,他们就为成年做好了准备)”可知,文章第一段和第二段介绍了直升机式育儿的定义和特点;第三段至第四段讲述了直升机式育儿的负面影响;最后一段提出了如何打破这种过度保护的循环的方法。由此可知这篇文章的主要讲的是直升机式育儿方式帮助孩子太多,是有害的,故选D项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Teenagers hate being treated like children, but don’t expect them to be teenagers. ___16___ but parents trying to encourage these changes often do more harm than good.
For example, you and the rest of your family are heading up to the mall for a few hours. ___17___, so you decide not to encourage her to come with you. It seems like a very respectful thing to take into account her feelings, but when you return she is unhappy. ___18___. She could have been caught up in a friend drama or some other kind of drama, or she could be feeling hurt. ___19___, but maybe you should have at least talked with her about it. Even knowing that you wanted to spend time with her would probably have made her feel good.
Some people may say that it is unreasonable for parents to allow their children to ask for constant (不断的) attention, but spending 30 extra seconds to make sure your children know you care about them only allows them to have a part of the self- worth they are so lacking (缺乏) at this time in their lives.
Expecting them to be emotionally distant (疏远) from you only strengthens the idea that they should be. ___20___. When they need a break from the high school soap opera, you will both be glad you didn’t close that door.
A. So you are trying to be supportive
B. Actively listen to her and say as little as possible
C. Maybe she really didn’t want to go to the mall with you
D. Your daughter doesn’t want to be seen with you in public

【16题详解】
根据上文“Teenagers hate being treated like children, but don’t expect them to be teenagers.

(但是父母试图鼓励这些改变往往弊大于利。)”可知,设空处应与青少年在成长过程中有所改变有关。G项“They are growing up and may want to change things about their habits or activities (他们正在成长,可能想要改变他们的习惯或活动)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选G。
【17题详解】
根据下文“so you decide not to encourage her to come with you. (所以你决定不鼓励她和你一起去。)”可知,设空处应是说明你不鼓励她去的原因。D项“Your daughter doesn’t want to be seen with you in public (你女儿不想被看到在公共场合和你在一起)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选D。

【19题详解】
根据下文“but maybe you should have at least talked with her about it. (但也许你至少应该和她谈谈。)”可知,设空处应与女儿内心的想法有关。C项“Maybe she really didn’t want to go to the mall with you (也许她真的不想和你一起去商场)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选C。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Expecting them to be emotionally distant (疏远) from you only strengthens the idea that they should be. (期望他们在情感上与你保持距离只会强化他们应该保持距离的想法。)”及下文“When they need a break from the high school soap opera, you will both be glad you didn’t close that door. (当他们需要从高中肥皂剧中休息时,你们都会为自己没有关上那扇门而感到高兴。)”并结合全文围绕父母应如何对待青少年并与之相处展开可知,F项“Always give them the choice to be an independent teen or your baby girl (总是让他们选择成为一个独立的青少年或你的宝贝女儿)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选F。

I waited 14 years to do something that I should have done in my first year of teaching: shadow a student for a day.
This is the first year I am working in a school but not teaching my own classes. Being the High School Learning Coach, my job is to work with teachers and administrators to improve students’ learning outcomes.
As part of getting my feet wet, the headmaster suggested I “be” a student for a day: I was to complete all the work of a 10th-grade student: if there were notes on the board, I copied them as fast as I could into my notebook; if there was an experiment, I did it with my host student; if there was a test, I took it.
I could not believe how dog-tired I was after the day, because I literally sat down the whole day, except for walking to and from classes. We forget as teachers, because we are on our feet a lot — in front of the board, walking as we speak, circling around the room to check on student work…. we move a lot.
But students almost never move, because in every class, the expectation was for us to come in, take our seats, and sit down for the whole class. Therefore, by the end of the day I was eager to move. I had planned to go back to my office and write down some notes on the day, but I was so exhausted that I couldn’t do anything but watch TV and I was in bed by 8:30.
If I could go back and change my classes now, I would immediately change the following three things:
1. mandatory stretch halfway through the class;
2. put a basketball hoop on the back of my door and encourage kids to play in the first and final minutes of class;
3. build a hands-on, move-around activity into every single class day.
4. Why did the headmaster suggest the author do the task?
A. To help the author with her new job. B. To allow the author to realize her dream.
C. To let the author learn from other teachers. D. To test whether the author was a good coach.
5. What was the author supposed to do in class?
A. Instruct the students how to take notes. B. Find out what subject the students liked.
C. Do what the students were required to do. D. Teach students to do chemical experiments.
6. How did the author feel after the day?
A. She lost interest in TV. B. She had pity for students.
C. She felt unsatisfied with the school. D. She thought teachers move too much.
7. What do the three changes have in common?
A. They are after-class activities. B. They encourage students to love sports.
C. They prevent students from sitting too long. D. They are good for both teachers and students.
C
Jack White is a 17-year-old student who has already published (发表) a collection of poetry with a local publisher. Jack believes switching (转) to an all-boys school from his coed (男女同校) high school changed his life.
“When I was at my coed school, poetry was for girls, not boys. Guys were supposed to like subject s like math, computers, and science. When I wrote poems, the guys at school used to make fun of me and girls didn’t want to date me. At my new school, things are different. I don’t worry what girls are thinking since there aren’t any.”
Jack may not realize that boys and girls also learn and think differently based on specific (具体的) biological developments. These differences affect how and when boys and girls learn, so single-sex education is actually better for children.
Take, for example, brain development. The areas of the brain related to language, feelings, physical coordination (协调), and social relationships, develop in a different order and speed in girls and boys. Research has shown that girls’ brains develop the connections between language and emotions earlier than boys’ brains. In a single-sex classroom, everyone’s brain is developing at similar speeds, so teachers can teach according to their students’ actual abilities.
Boys and girls also have different hearing abilities. Girls have a sense of hearing which is two to four times better than boys. Women teachers often speak more quietly, so boys may have more difficulty hearing a woman teacher if she is talking in her “normal” voice. The teacher needs to speak louder to get the boys’ attention. In a single-sex school, teachers do not have to keep adjusting (调整) their voice.
Jack might not be aware of the biological arguments why single-sex education is better, but he realizes that he is learning faster at his new school. As Jack says, “I hated writing and studying English in my old coed school, but now I’m a published poet! My new school helped me become comfortable with who I really am.”
8. What do we know about Jack’s former (以前的) school?
A. It published Jack’s poetry collection. B. It was a school attended by both sexes.
C. It didn’t provide native language classes. D. It discouraged students from writing poems.
9. Why does the author say single-sex education is better for children?
A. Girls are smarter than boys. B. Boys are easily attracted by girls.
C. Girls have natural differences from boys. D. Boys and girls are good at different subjects.
10. What will probably happen in a single-sex classroom?
A. Students make progress at the same speed. B. Students learn to express themselves freely.
C. Teachers speak louder to make themselves heard. D. Teachers match lesson plans with student abilities.
11. Jack thinks that his new school has helped him to ________.
A. raise awareness of education B. find confidence in learning
C. improve ability to publish D. reduce chance of dating
D
“Helicopter (直升机) parenting” describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protective and do too much. The term describes parents who hover over their kids at home and on the playground like a helicopter. Today, modern technology allows these helicopter parents to hover from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.
Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adult: Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kids for Success. In her book, she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style. She also explains why parents should stop it.
Julie Lythcott-Haims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting first- hand when she worked as dean of first- year students at Stanford University. The incoming students, or freshmen, she says, were very smart and accomplished on paper. But many were unable to take care of themselves. “They were turning to parents constantly for guidance, for problem- solving, to have them make the choice about something.”
Lythcott-Haims warns this kind of parenting has many short-term wins but long-term costs that harm the child. She uses an area common to most children-a playground. Lythcott-Haims suggests letting your child get a little hurt.
“If you do your child’s homework, it will be perfect. That is what she calls the short- term win. The long-term cost is that your child may not feel capable. And he does not become a determined learner, meaning he will give up easily when faced with a difficult problem to solve.” So what can parents do if they want to break the over-parenting “helicopter” cycle? Reading Julie’s book, you can follow some ways to stop hovering over your children. In a word, when kids have all the skills to take care of themselves, they will be prepared for adulthood.
12. The underlined words “hover over” in Paragraph I probably mean “______”.
A. deal with B. fly over C. stare at D. circle around
13. What does the “helicopter parent” believe?
A. Short- term wins can harm the kids. B. Getting protection from parents is necessary.
C. Trying to make decisions should be valued. D. Learning from failure is helping kids.
14. What should parents do for their children based on Julie’s study?
A. Encourage them to do what they can do. B. Help them grow with parents’ protection.
C. Guide them in doing as parents do or say. D. Prevent them from playing on a playground.
15. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Break the Over- Parenting Cycle B. How to Help Adults with Their Problems
C. Helicopter Parenting Is Well Worth Trying D. Helping Children Too Much Is Hurting Them
