【原文】 W: I’ve always had a strong interest in acting and singing but when I started performing in plays and musicals locally, I realized that my true love was acting. It was a tough journey, but I worked hard and never gave up. I was turned down for different roles in nearby states, but I never let it get me down. I made up my mind to succeed, and it finally paid off. Luckily, I now work all around the world with some great people. I made a mistake early in my job by trying to compete with other actors to get the best parts. I regret that now. I’ve learned that it’s better to support and help others instead of trying to outdo them. Now, I try to find challenging roles that are different from what I’ve done before. I take risks and I am open to new opportunities. For example, I turned down a part in a film because I thought the writing was bad, and it ended up winning many awards. It was a tough lesson, but it helped me develop my present style. I’m grateful to do what I love every day, with some great people. I hope to continue to grow and improve as I take on new and exciting challenges in the future.

The history alone creates mystery and awe from fans. The official London residence (住所) for the Queen and her family has existed since 1837. Queen Elizabeth II took power in 1953. In the summer, the State Rooms in the palace are open to the public for tours. However, much of the Queen’s home is off limits. It is reported that the most expensive home in Europe at an estimated 1.5 billion includes 775 rooms.
The Richest YouTube channel recently took viewers on a tour of the grand inside part of one of the most famous residences in the world.
The Grand Staircase
The first thing visitors see when walking into the palace is a red carpet lined staircase, added by Queen Victoria in 1898. Portraits of the royal family line the walls so visitors can view history as they make their way toward the State Rooms.
The Regency (摄政) Room
Fans have surely seen this green and gold room with delicate sofas, a desk and traditional fireplace. The famous room is often where the Queen’s official photos are taken and the annual Christmas broadcast is filmed.
The 1844 Room
This room is often used to greet special guests and world leaders. With gold mirrors, perhaps most notable is the 1820 neoclassical desk against one wall and the blue and gold chairs on either side.
Outside
Of course, a visit to Buckingham Palace wouldn’t be complete without watching the changing of the guard, a tradition beginning in 1911. One more top-secret feature of the palace - the series of tunnels under it. One, reportedly even leads to the House of Parliament.
21. What can you infer about the Queen’s palace?
A. There are 1844 rooms.
B. In the summer, the whole palace is open to visitors.
C. It is thought to be the most expensive residence in Europe.
D. The Queen’s family didn’t live in it until 1953.
22. Where is the annual Christmas broadcast filmed?
A. The Grand Staircase. B. The Regency Room.
C. The 1844 Room. D. Queen’s garden.
23. What is a top-secret feature of Buckingham Palace?

Real legacy of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games may be creation of new generation of young athletes. Schoolchildren slid around on roller skates, passing the puck (冰球) on an artificial ice field and practicing cross-country skiing skills on roller skis on a cool afternoon at the Yangfangdian Central Primary School in Beijing’s Haidian District. In one of the classrooms, photos commemorating (用以纪念) the school’s connection with the Olympics and trophies (奖杯) won at numerous competitions were on display.
Zhou Chenguang, the sports teacher for the fourth, fifth and sixth grades, is one of the teachers who helped make all of this happen. He has taught at the school for 32 years and is a crazy fan of the Games. “Our physical education classes are about enjoyment and competition, and ultimately, they’ve taught our children about the Winter Olympics and generated a passion for winter sports,” said Zhou, 52. “By knowing more about sports, our children have a greater chance of competing in the real Games in the future.”
In 2016, Zhou introduced hockey lessons to the primary school’s PE classes. “Demonstrating the popularity of winter sports at schools in Beijing should not just be a slogan. We must let students play real winter sports and learn the rules,” he said.
Students from the fourth grade and above can participate in winter sports classes, but Xu Hengyu, a 10-year-old fifth grader, began to learn cross-country skiing on roller skis by herself when she was in the third grade. “I saw some senior class students practicing and thought it would be fun to do,” Xu said. “When I got home, I asked my father to buy me a pair of roller skis and started to practice in our neighborhood.”

ChatGPT is an AI chatbot (智能聊天程序) from OpenAI, an AI technology company In San Francisco. It can produce any kind of writing as required. Many schools are afraid that ChatGPT could result in dishonesty and harm learning. So the tool, called AI Text Classifier from the same maker, is invented. Its task is to decide whether the writing was produced by students or by AI programs.
OpenAI warns that its new tool—like others already in use—is not perfect. The method for detecting AI-written writing “will be wrong sometimes,” said Jan Leike of OpenAI. “Because of that,” he added, “it shouldn’t be only relied upon when making decisions.”
Teenagers and college students were among the millions of people who began experimenting with ChatGPT after it was put into use on November 30. The tool is a free service on OpenAI’s website. Many people have found ways to use it creatively and harmlessly. Still, some teachers are worried that it could be used to cheat.
So far public schools in some cities, such as New York City and Los Angeles, began to block (阻止) its use in classrooms and on school computers. Public schools in Seattle blocked ChatGPT on all school computers but then opened it to teachers. One spokesman Tim Robinson said teachers wanted to use ChatGPT as a teaching tool. “We can’t afford to ignore (忽视) it,” Robinson said. Students could also use the service as a “personal teacher” or to help create ideas when doing homework, Robinson said.
OpenAI talked about its new tool on a blog recently. But the company added that the tool could help to find some mistakes in writing as well as catch cheating. The longer a piece of writing is, the better the tool is at deciding whether an AI system or a human wrote something.
28. Who are more likely to use AI Text Classifier?
A. Students. B. Teachers. C. Parents. D. Writers.
29. What is Leike’s attitude towards AI Text Classifier?
A. Positive. B. Unconcerned C. Cautious D. Satisfied
30. Why are some teachers worried about ChatGPT?
A. It costs the users a lot of money. B. It often makes wrong decisions.
C. They can’t use it as a teaching tool. D. Students will take advantage of it to cheat.
31. What can we learn from the example of ChatGPT?
A. Every coin has its two sides. B. Rome was not built in one day.
C. A good beginning is half done. D. A bit is better than nothing.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍OpenAI针对人们担忧学生会利用ChatGPT作弊这个问题研发了AI Text Classifier,它能判断作文是学生还是人工智能完成的。但该程序目前也不完美,会出错。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“So the tool, called AI Text Classifier from the same maker, is invented. Its task is to decide whether the writing was produced by students or by AI programs. (于是,同一家公司发明了名为AI Text Classifier的工具。它的任务是判断作文是学生写的还是人工智能程序写的)”可知,AI Text Classifier的作用是判断文章是学生还是人工智能程序写的。由此推知,老师更有可能使用它。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“The method for detecting AI-written writing “will be wrong sometimes,” said Jan Leike of OpenAI. “Because of that,” he added, “it shouldn’t be only relied upon when making decisions.” (OpenAI的Jan Leike说,检测人工智能书写的方法“有时会出错”。“正因为如此,”他补充说,“在做决定时不能只依赖它。”)”推知, Leike对 AI Text Classifier的态度是谨慎的,建议人们不要完全依赖它。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Still, some teachers are worried that it could be used to cheat. (尽管如此,一些老师还是担心它可能被用来作弊)”可知,老师对 ChatGPT担忧是因为他们认为一些学生可能用它来作弊。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“OpenAI warns that its new tool—like others already in use—is not perfect. (OpenAI警告说,它的新工具——就像其他已经在使用的工具一样——并不完美)”,第三段的“Many people have found ways to use it creatively and harmlessly. Still, some teachers are worried that it could be used to cheat. (许多人已经找到了创造性地、无害地使用它的方法。尽管如此,一些老师还是担心它可能被用来作弊)”,倒数第二段的“Public schools in Seattle blocked ChatGPT on all school computers but then opened it to teachers. One spokesman Tim Robinson said teachers wanted to use ChatGPT as a teaching tool. “We can’t afford to ignore (忽视) it,” Robinson said. Students could also use the service as a “personal teacher” or to help create ideas when doing homework, Robinson said. (西雅图的公立学校在所有学校电脑上屏蔽了ChatGPT,但随后向教师开放。一位发言人Tim Robinson表示,教师们希望将ChatGPT作为一种教学工具。“我们不能忽视它,”Robinson说,学生们也可以将这项服务作为“私人老师”,或者在做家庭作业时帮助创造想法)”可知,ChatGPT在给老师和学生带来便利的同时也带来了一些隐患——学生可能利用ChatGPT作弊。由此推知,我们从这文章可以得出事物都有两面性。故选A。
D
Many teachers believe frequent quizzes (小测验) help students better grasp classroom material. Crede, an associate professor of psychology, was skeptical that something as simple as a quiz could positively affect students’ academic performance. He decided to dig deeper and conduct an analytic study of existing research to see if there was any proof to the idea. What he discovered truly surprised him.
Crede analyzed data from previously published studies that examined 52 classes with almost 8,000 students, primarily college-level courses, to determine if frequent quizzes improved the students’ academic performance. Laboratory settings were kept out of the study because Crede wanted to observe whether similar studies from labs would apply to general classrooms.
Crede discovered that when students are quizzed over class material at least once a week, they tend to perform better on midterm and final exams compared to students who did not take quizzes. He also found that students who took frequent quizzes were less likely to fail the class, especially if they were struggling with the course content. Students who struggle the most in a class seem to benefit the greatest from frequent quizzes. The other surprising thing was how much quizzes helped reduce failure rates in classes. The chances of passing a class went through the roof where instructors used this. In addition to quiz frequency, another factor that seemed to positively affect students’ performance was immediate feedback from instructors. Also, quizzes that required students to answer with written responses proved more beneficial to their understanding of class material compared to multiple-choice questions.
Asking teachers to grade written quizzes daily or weekly may discourage some from carrying them out in their classes. Instead, it is recommended that instructors give online quizzes that can be automatically graded by a course management system. Quiz attributes (属性) proved insignificant in the study, including whether the tests were pop quizzes or planned, or if they were online or on paper.
32. What did Crede do to ensure his study’s accuracy?
A. He focused on what happened in classrooms.
B. He researched as many students as he could.
C. He made laboratory settings as real as possible.
D. He gave easy quizzes to make every student do well.
33. What does the underlined words “went through the roof” mean in paragraph 3?
A. rose B. appeared
C faded D. lost
34. What did Crede discover in his study?
A. Frequent quizzes could remove students’ failure in classes.
B. Instructors’ feedback was more important than frequent quizzes.
C. Frequent quizzes were especially useful to the struggling students.
D. Multiple-choice questions shouldn’t be included in frequent quizzes.
35. What may be a disadvantage of frequent quizzes for teachers?
A. Accessing the Internet less frequently.
B. Having too many exam papers to mark.
C. Being unable to get appropriate test materials.
D. Finding it hard to choose the right type of quiz.
【答案】32. A 33. A 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了,一位心理学教授研究发现经常进行小测验会对学生成绩有积极的影响,特别是成绩较差的学生。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“Laboratory settings were kept out of the study because Crede wanted to observe whether similar studies from labs would apply to general classrooms.”(实验室环境被排除在研究之外,因为Crede希望观察实验室的类似研究是否适用于普通教室。),可知为确保实验的准确性,Crede排除了实验室环境下的研究,而是在普通教室里研究,可知他关注的是教室里发生的事情。故选A项。
【33题详解】
短语猜测题。由第三段中的“The other surprising thing was how much quizzes helped reduce failure rates in classes. ”(另一件令人惊讶的事情是,小测验有助于降低课堂上的失败率。),可知小测验有助于降低课堂上的失败率,提高学习效率和成绩,可得出课程的及格率会上升,went through the roof 在此表示“增长”。故选A项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中的“He also found that students who took frequent quizzes were less likely to fail the class, especially if they were struggling with the course content. Students who struggle the most in a class seem to benefit the greatest from frequent quizzes.”(他还发现,经常参加小测验的学生不太可能不及格,尤其是当他们在课程内容上遇到困难时。在课堂上学习有困难的学生似乎从频繁的测验中受益最大。),可知频繁的小测验让学习有困难的学生受益。故选C项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Asking teachers to grade written quizzes daily or weekly may discourage some from carrying them out in their classes.”(要求老师每天或每周给书面测验打分可能会阻碍一些人在课堂上实施这些做法。),可知要求老师每天或每周给笔试打分,就会产生的大工作量,即有太多的试卷要批改,可能会阻碍一些老师在课堂上实施这些做法。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了培养积极心态的行动计划,包括醒来微笑、关注美好事物、自信表达、善待自我等方面。
【36题详解】
根据后文“Then, you’ll find it easy to stay positive all day.( 然后,你会发现一整天都保持积极的心态很容易。)”可知,此处提到你会发现一整天都保持积极很容易;再根据下文小标题可知,本文主要介绍了一些帮助人们保持乐观心态的做法,故B选项“Try these healthy habits.(尝试这些健康的习惯)”和后文有因果关系,符合语境。B 项中的 these healthy habits 和下文中的小标题相呼应。故选B。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Jump right into some routines that will put you in a happy frame of mind.( 直接进入一些日常活动,这会让你心情愉快。)”可知,此处强调做一些会让你心情快乐的日常活动,后文应该对日常活动进行介绍。 G 项“This could mean enjoying a cup of tea or listening to a funny DJ on the radio.(这可能意味着在品茶或听一个有趣的唱片节目主持人的广播)”中提到了一项日常活动,符合语境。故选G。
【38题详解】
此处为下面一段的小标题。根据后文中“When you notice anything good that happens, you’ll realize that the world has so much to offer to you. (当你注意到任何美好的事情发生时,你会意识到这个世界有这么多东西可以给你。)”可知,当你注意到发生的好事时,你会意识到这个世界能给你的东西太多了,接着下文列举了一些能温暖人心的事情,由此可推知,世界给了我们很多,因此我们应心存感激,故E选项“Being thankful for experiences helps you appreciate your life.(对经历心存感激有助于你欣赏生活)”可作为该段的小标题。故选E。
【39题详解】
根据后文“So if you say, “I don’t know how to handle life,” you’ll forget that you have the power to fix any issue. Remind yourself that you have a lot of control over your circumstances.( 所以如果你说,“我不知道如何处理生活,”你会忘记你有能力解决任何问题。提醒自己,你对自己的处境有很大的控制权。)”可知,此处提到如果你说你不知道如何应对生活中的问题,那么你就会忘记自己具有处理任何事情的能力。由此可推知,人们告诉自己的话会影响人们的表现。故D选项“What you tell yourself affects your performance.(你对自己说的话会影响你的表现)”符合语境,能引出下文。故选D。
【40题详解】
根据前文“If you notice that you’ve slipped into self-criticism, change your word choice so it’ll encourage you. First, say your name so your brain recognizes that you’re talking to yourself. Then, use a new phrase that doesn’t have a single negative detail. Finally, end with what you love about yourself. (如果你注意到自己陷入了自我批评,那就改变用词,这样它会鼓励你。首先,说出你的名字,这样你的大脑就会意识到你在自言自语。然后,使用一个没有任何负面细节的新短语。最后,以你喜欢自己的地方结尾。)”可知,此处强调到如果你注意到自己已经陷入了自我批评,改变你的用词,这样会鼓励你,然后从三点分别介绍了上述方法的具体内容。因此设空处的内容应该是对前文的小结。C选项“You’ll see someone amazing in the mirror.(你会在镜子里看到一个很棒的人。)” 作为结尾,指出通过上述方法,善待自己和积极的话语,你会变得更加自信和出色,符合语境。故选C。

76. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Amy and I had been best friends since primary school and spent almost every day with each other. Sometimes, other children said we were no fun because we were both very academic(学术的) and liked to study, but we liked it that way. Both of us were very hard-working and always got good grades at school.
I thought we would be like this forever, however, our friendship was on the rocks recently.
One Monday, we had a surprise math quiz. I thought it was quite easy and was not worried about the results.
I must have sounded very proud of myself after the quiz, saying how easy it was and how I was sure to get a good grade. And many classmates looked at me with admiration.
The next day after class, my math teacher told me that I had the lowest grade in the class! I felt so ashamed and couldn’t believe it; I must be really stupid to fail a simple math quiz!
Afterwards, I pretended to be cheerful and greeted others with a smile as usual, but Amy sensed something was wrong.
We went to wash our hands in the girls’ washroom before lunch. She patted me on the shoulder and asked me what happened. Seeing her concerned look, I had to admit how badly I had done in the math quiz. I begged her not to tell anyone else, and couldn’t help sobbing (啜泣). She held me tightly, saying she would keep my secret, and cheered me up.
However, the next day, I noticed that my classmates were staring at me as I came into math class, when I went to sit down, I was shocked to find a piece of paper on my desk that said, “...Stupid Sarah got a D!” I was so upset that I felt like crying.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Then I began to cry, wondering who let out my secret—was it Amy?

When hearing the truth from Alice, I was shocked and couldn’t wait to find Amy to apologize.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Then I began to cry, wondering who let out my secret—was it Amy? Yes, it must be her since I didn’t tell anyone else. I was so angry that I went straight to Amy and told her we weren’t going to be friends any more because she couldn’t keep her word. She was really upset and swore (发誓) that she hadn’t told anyone. I didn’t believe what she had said and began to avoid her. Several days later, another classmate Alice told me that it was another girl who let out my secret after overhearing (偷听) our talk that day.
When hearing the truth from Alice, I was shocked and couldn’t wait to find Amy to apologize. My mind quickly raced back to the happy moments when Amy and I were together. I couldn’t deny how I missed her these days when I struggled to ignore her. How I wished I hadn’t said such words to her. My heart was pounding when I approached her. “Could you forgive me, Amy?” Dropping my head, I dared not see her. A warm hand held mine and her familiar smile appeared again. With tears streaming down my face, I felt a wave of happiness flooded me. Mutual trust is the secret to lasting friendship.

The history alone creates mystery and awe from fans. The official London residence (住所) for the Queen and her family has existed since 1837. Queen Elizabeth II took power in 1953. In the summer, the State Rooms in the palace are open to the public for tours. However, much of the Queen’s home is off limits. It is reported that the most expensive home in Europe at an estimated 1.5 billion includes 775 rooms.
The Richest YouTube channel recently took viewers on a tour of the grand inside part of one of the most famous residences in the world.
The Grand Staircase
The first thing visitors see when walking into the palace is a red carpet lined staircase, added by Queen Victoria in 1898. Portraits of the royal family line the walls so visitors can view history as they make their way toward the State Rooms.
The Regency (摄政) Room
Fans have surely seen this green and gold room with delicate sofas, a desk and traditional fireplace. The famous room is often where the Queen’s official photos are taken and the annual Christmas broadcast is filmed.
The 1844 Room
This room is often used to greet special guests and world leaders. With gold mirrors perhaps most notable is the 1820 neoclassical desk against one wall and the blue and gold chairs on either side.
Outside
Of course, a visit to Buckingham Palace wouldn’t be complete without watching the changing of the guard, a tradition beginning in 1911. One more top-secret feature of the palace - the series of tunnels under it. One, reportedly even leads to the House of Parliament.
21. What can you infer about the Queen’s palace?

C. It is thought to be the most expensive residence in Europe.
D. The Queen’s family didn’t live in it until 1953.
22. Where is the annual Christmas broadcast filmed?

Real legacy of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games may be creation of new generation of young athletes. Schoolchildren slid around on roller skates, passing the puck (冰球) on an artificial ice field and practicing cross-country skiing skills on roller skis on a cool afternoon at the Yangfangdian Central Primary School in Beijing’s Haidian District. In one of the classrooms, photos commemorating (用以纪念) the school’s connection with the Olympics and trophies (奖杯) won at numerous competitions were on display.
Zhou Chenguang, the sports teacher for the fourth, fifth and sixth grades, is one of the teachers who helped make all of this happen. He has taught at the school for 32 years and is a crazy fan of the Games. “Our physical education classes are about enjoyment and competition, and ultimately, they’ve taught our children about the Winter Olympics and generated a passion for winter sports,” said Zhou, 52. “By knowing more about sports, our children have a greater chance of competing in the real Games in the future.”
In 2016, Zhou introduced hockey lessons to the primary school’s PE classes. “Demonstrating the popularity of winter sports at schools in Beijing should not just be a slogan. We must let students play real winter sports and learn the rules,” he said.
Students from the fourth grade and above can participate in winter sports classes, but Xu Hengyu, a 10-year-old fifth grader, began to learn cross-country skiing on roller skis by herself when she was in the third grade. “I saw some senior class students practicing and thought it would be fun to do,” Xu said. “When I got home, I asked my father to buy me a pair of roller skis and started to practice in our neighborhood.”
24. What can be seen from the classroom mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. Information about cross-country skiing skills.
B. Pictures recording the creation of the school.
C. Prizes won by the students in different contests.
D. Photos involving the school’s link with the Olympics.
25. How old was Zhou Chenguang when he began teaching in the school?
A. 20. B. 22. C. 32. D. 52.
26. Which of the following can describe Zhou Chenguang best?
A. Competent and critical. B. Intelligent and creative.
C. Devoted and determined. D. Considerate and caring.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Common Teacher Affects Generations of Students
B. Capital’s School Kids Get a Taste of Winter Sports
C. Sports Classes Are Popular with Primary School Students
D. The Spirits of Winter Olympic Games Shine in Young People
C
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot (智能聊天程序) from OpenAI, an AI technology company In San Francisco. It can produce any kind of writing as required. Many schools are afraid that ChatGPT could result in dishonesty and harm learning. So the tool, called AI Text Classifier from the same maker, is invented. Its task is to decide whether the writing was produced by students or by AI programs.
OpenAI warns that its new tool—like others already in use—is not perfect. The method for detecting AI-written writing “will be wrong sometimes,” said Jan Leike of OpenAI. “Because of that,” he added, “it shouldn’t be only relied upon when making decisions.”
Teenagers and college students were among the millions of people who began experimenting with ChatGPT after it was put into use on November 30. The tool is a free service on OpenAI’s website. Many people have found ways to use it creatively and harmlessly. Still, some teachers are worried that it could be used to cheat.
So far public schools in some cities, such as New York City and Los Angeles, began to block (阻止) its use in classrooms and on school computers. Public schools in Seattle blocked ChatGPT on all school computers but then opened it to teachers. One spokesman Tim Robinson said teachers wanted to use ChatGPT as a teaching tool. “We can’t afford to ignore (忽视) it,” Robinson said. Students could also use the service as a “personal teacher” or to help create ideas when doing homework, Robinson said.
OpenAI talked about its new tool on a blog recently. But the company added that the tool could help to find some mistakes in writing as well as catch cheating. The longer a piece of writing is, the better the tool is at deciding whether an AI system or a human wrote something.
28. Who are more likely to use AI Text Classifier?
A. Students. B. Teachers. C. Parents. D. Writers.
29. What is Leike’s attitude towards AI Text Classifier?
A. Positive. B. Unconcerned C. Cautious D. Satisfied
30. Why are some teachers worried about ChatGPT?
A. It costs the users a lot of money. B. It often makes wrong decisions.
C. They can’t use it as a teaching tool. D. Students will take advantage of it to cheat.
31. What can we learn from the example of ChatGPT?
A. Every coin has its two sides. B. Rome was not built in one day.
C. A good beginning is half done. D. A bit is better than nothing.
D
Many teachers believe frequent quizzes (小测验) help students better grasp classroom material. Crede, an associate professor of psychology, was skeptical that something as simple as a quiz could positively affect students’ academic performance. He decided to dig deeper and conduct an analytic study of existing research to see if there was any proof to the idea. What he discovered truly surprised him.
Crede analyzed data from previously published studies that examined 52 classes with almost 8,000 students, primarily college-level courses, to determine if frequent quizzes improved the students’ academic performance. Laboratory settings were kept out of the study because Crede wanted to observe whether similar studies from labs would apply to general classrooms.
Crede discovered that when students are quizzed over class material at least once a week, they tend to perform better on midterm and final exams compared to students who did not take quizzes. He also found that students who took frequent quizzes were less likely to fail the class, especially if they were struggling with the course content. Students who struggle the most in a class seem to benefit the greatest from frequent quizzes. The other surprising thing was how much quizzes helped reduce failure rates in classes. The chances of passing a class went through the roof where instructors used this. In addition to quiz frequency, another factor that seemed to positively affect students’ performance was immediate feedback from instructors. Also, quizzes that required students to answer with written responses proved more beneficial to their understanding of class material compared to multiple-choice questions.
Asking teachers to grade written quizzes daily or weekly may discourage some from carrying them out in their classes. Instead, it is recommended that instructors give online quizzes that can be automatically graded by a course management system. Quiz attributes (属性) proved insignificant in the study, including whether the tests were pop quizzes or planned, or if they were online or on paper.
32. What did Crede do to ensure his study’s accuracy?
A. He focused on what happened in classrooms.
B. He researched as many students as he could.
C. He made laboratory settings as real as possible.
D. He gave easy quizzes to make every student do well.
33. What does the underlined words “went through the roof” mean in paragraph 3?
A. rose B. appeared
C. faded D. lost
34. What did Crede discover in his study?
A. Frequent quizzes could remove students’ failure in classes.
B. Instructors’ feedback was more important than frequent quizzes.
C. Frequent quizzes were especially useful to the struggling students.
D. Multiple-choice questions shouldn’t be included in frequent quizzes.
35. What may be a disadvantage of frequent quizzes for teachers?
A. Accessing the Internet less frequently.
B. Having too many exam papers to mark.
C. Being unable to get appropriate test materials.
D. Finding it hard to choose the right type of quiz.

Amy and I had been best friends since primary school and spent almost every day with each other. Sometimes, other children said we were no fun because we were both very academic(学术的) and liked to study, but we liked it that way. Both of us were very hard-working and always got good grades at school.
I thought we would be like this forever, however, our friendship was on the rocks recently.
One Monday, we had a surprise math quiz. I thought it was quite easy and was not worried about the results.
I must have sounded very proud of myself after the quiz, saying how easy it was and how I was sure to get a good grade. And many classmates looked at me with admiration.
The next day after class, my math teacher told me that I had the lowest grade in the class! I felt so ashamed and couldn’t believe it; I must be really stupid to fail a simple math quiz!
Afterwards, I pretended to be cheerful and greeted others with a smile as usual, but Amy sensed something was wrong.
We went to wash our hands in the girls’ washroom before lunch. She patted me on the shoulder and asked me what happened. Seeing her concerned look, I had to admit how badly I had done in the math quiz. I begged her not to tell anyone else, and couldn’t help sobbing (啜泣). She held me tightly, saying she would keep my secret, and cheered me up.
However, the next day, I noticed that my classmates were staring at me as I came into math class, when I went to sit down, I was shocked to find a piece of paper on my desk that said, “...Stupid Sarah got a D!” I was so upset that I felt like crying.
注意:
