Ⅰ.阅读理解
It is no surprise that within many education systems,wealthier students often test better than poorer students,which education experts often called the “achievement gap”.Sean Reardon,a professor of poverty and inequality in education at Stanford University in California,found that from 1998 to 2010 the achievement gap closed a small amount.
One way to reduce the gap is to offer prekindergarten programs to all 3and 4yearold kids.Such classes are already being offered in some areas around the United States,including the U.S. capital,Washington,D.C.These programs offer hope for many youngsters.It is more than learning the ABCs or counting to 100. Kids have the chance to learn how to listen,develop social skills,and interact with others.
Vincent Gray,a former mayor of the District of Columbia,says,“We've always had some form of early childhood care in the District of Columbia for decades.But what we didn't have was universal access.And I did the legislation(立法)in 2009 as Chairman of the Council to get it done.And then when I became the mayor,it gave me an incredible opportunity to be able to fully implement (执行)the legislation.”
Gray also explains “Today,most of Washington's youngest children are in school.The preK programs are not a requirement in the city.But almost no parent at this stage is saying‘I don't want my child in school.’They want them in school because there's not a cost associated with it,other than the cost of them not having the opportunity to learn.”
Generally,wealthier parents have more financial resources to help their children.Educated parents,wealthy or not,might take their children to participate in certain activities instead of attending school at an early age.For example,they may take their children to free events at a public library or recreation (消遣)center.Washington,D.C.also has many free museums.
[语篇解读] 在很多的教育体制下,富有的学生比贫穷的学生在测试中做得更好,这就是教育专家所说的“成就差距”,有研究发现在美国这一差距在缩短,那就是学前班课程以及政客Vincent Gray等努力的结果。
1.What is finding of Sean Reardon?
A.People have narrowed the achievement gap slightly.
B.People have learnt the meaning of achievement gap fully.
C.People have tried to get rid of the achievement gap gradually.
D.People have known how to reduce the achievement gap greatly.
解析:A [细节理解题。根据文章第一段的最后一句“...found that from 1998 to 2010 the achievement gap closed a small amount.”可知,这与选项A的“narrowed the achievement gap slightly”表达的意思相一致。]
2.The author used the example of Vincent Gray to show ________ .
A.he had accounted for the prekindergarten classes in detail
B.he had made good preparations for prekindergarten classes
C.he has helped develop prekindergarten classes for a long time
D.he had devoted himself to educating prekindergarten classes
解析:C [写作意图题。根据文章第三段Vincent Gray提到关注儿童早期的照料有好几十年了,但没有普及,于是他担任议长时提出这个立法,随后担任市长时去执行那个立法,由此可知作者引用该例子是说明他多年来致力于推进学前班的课程,所以答案选C项。]
3.What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A.The education system reform is popular with the public.
B.The preK programs don't satisfy parents' requirement.
C.Some parents can afford the cost of their kids' education.
D.Most parents pay much attention to their kids' education.
解析:D [推理判断题。根据文章第四段的“But almost no parent at this stage is saying‘I don't want my child in school.’...not having the opportunity to learn.”推断可知,家长们都重视他们小孩的教育,故选项D符合题意。]
4.What do the educated parents do when educating their children?
A.By always encouraging them in their studies.
B.By making good use of the resources they can get.
C.By offering them various outofclass activities.
D.By accompanying and playing with them together.
解析:B [细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的“take their children to participate in certain activities”以及下面列举的一些免费的场所可知,这里是说那些家长们懂得利用可得到的资源,所以答案选B项。]
Ⅱ.阅读填句

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了提升自尊心的几点建议。
1.解析:E [根据前句可知自尊对你所做的事情起着重要的作用。再根据后句可知,自尊心强的人与同龄人和成年人的关系更好,感到更快乐。故E项“自尊心强的人在学校表现地更好,也更容易交到朋友。”符合语境。]
2.解析:D [根据本空前的“If you're used to focusing on your shortcomings, start thinking about positive aspects of yourself.”可知,如果你习惯了关注自己的缺点,那就开始思考自己积极的方面。D项“每天写下三件关于你的、让你快乐的事。”是对上句话的补充和说明,介绍具体的做法,符合语境。故选D项。]
3.解析:A [根据本空前的“Accept that you will make mistakes because everyone does.”可知,接受你会犯错的事实,因为人人都会犯错。A项“错误是学习一部分。”符合语境,故选A项。]
4.解析:B [本段讲的是要认清自己能改变和不能改变的事情。B项“意识到什么是你能改变的,什么是你不能改变的。”符合语境,故选B项。]
5.解析:G [根据本空前的“Help a classmate who's having trouble, offer to clean up your neighborhood or volunteer your time in some other way.”可知,帮助有困难的同学、主动打扫街区或者以其他方式做点贡献。G项“感觉你的所作所为是值得的、有意义的,这对自尊心的提升会起到意想不到的效果。”是对上文的总结,讲的是帮助别人对提升自尊心的好处,符合语境。]
