People often remember what they were doing when they heard the news of important events in history. In the United States, ________, many people remember what they were doing on April 4, 1968. This was one of the most important events in modern American history. On this day, Dr Martin Luther King was killed in the city of Memphis in America. Although some people may not remember who murdered him, they remember what they were doing when they heard about it.
Everyday activities can seem important. Robert Allen is now over 40. He was just a student at that time, but he remembers what he was doing when he heard the news. “It was a bright, sunny day,” Robert remembers. “We were having fun in the playground when the bell rang. Our teacher asked us to ________ what we were doing and listen. He told us the news: “Dr Martin Luther King died just ten minutes ago! We couldn’t believe it!” School closed for the day, and Robert and his friends walked home together in silence.
Dr Martin Luther King’s murder ________ about thirty years ago, before many Americans were born. However, in more recent times, most Americans remember what they were doing when the World Trade Center in New York was destroyed by terrorists. The date --- September 11, 2001 --- has special ________ to most Americans.
Not all events in history are as ________ as the above, of course. Many Americans also say they remember what they were doing when man first walked on the moon on July 20, 1969. In more recent history, most Chinese remember what they were doing when Yang Liwei became the first Chinese astronaut in space. Yang went into space on October 15, 2003. His ________around the Earth lasted about 22 hours. When he returned, he became a national hero in China, and became famous all over the world.

【题目】 How do you feel when your teacher asks you to work on a group project with other students? Do you like to work together with others or work alone?
The Program for International Student Assessment, or PISA, carried out a survey of students' ability to work together in groups. They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people.
This finding was true for many countries. Students in Japan, South Korea, Finland and Canada, where test scores are high, also did well in working together to solve problems. But this was not the case for every country. Chinese students, who tend(趋向)to have high scores as well, displayed just average collaborative(合作的)skills.
“One reason might be that Chinese parents and teachers focus too much on grades, ”said Zhao Zhongxin, former vice president of the Chinese Family Education Association.“Students have a lot of exam pressure and they view school as a place for competition.”
“However, collaborative skills are very important for preparing students for today's society, ”he added.“Luckily, more Chinese parents and teachers are realizing the importance of this and are thinking of ways to help students improve this skill.”
Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls tend to be better than boys at working together. They said girls show more positive attitudes toward relationships, which means they are more willing to listen to others' opinions.
PISA also found that the classroom environment tends to influence how well students collaborate. In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication, such as class debates, students tend to have better attitudes toward collaborating.
【1】Which of the following is NOT one of the survey's findings?
A.Those who do well on tests are also better at working with others.
B.Collaborative skills are more important than scores for students' futures.
C.Girls are better at working with others than boys.
D.The classroom environment can influence students' ability to work in groups.
【2】What can teachers do to improve their students' ability to work with others?
A.Give students high scores on every test.B.Help students to get used to exam pressure.
C.Make girls work with girls instead of boys.D.Arrange more communicative activities in class.
【3】What's the passage mainly about?
A.How to improve collaborative skills.
B.Who tend to cooperate in working.
C.The result of a survey on students' collaborative ability.
D.The process of a survey on students' collaborative ability.
