【题目】

How Children Succeed, by Paul Tough

Journalist Tough spent five years reporting his previous (先前的) book, Whatever It Takes, a description of education activist Geoffrey Canada and the families influenced by his organization, the Harlem Children’s Zone. In this 2012 follow-up, Tough sets out to answer the difficult questions raised by Whatever It Takes: Why do some kids — particularly poor ones — succeed while others fail? And how can parents and educators help guide more children towards success?

The Death and Life of the Great American School System, by Diane Ravitch

Ravitch, a professor in New York University, takes a hard look at how public education has changed over the past twenty years, offering a reasoned explanation of popular policies, such as the emphasis (强调) on testing, and a solution (解决方法) to how to improve America’s schools.

Saving the School, by Michael Brick

When Anabel Garza became headteacher of Reagan High in Austin, Tex, she was faced with a large number of seemingly very difficult problems: A high dropout rate (辍学率) and low test scores. But as Brick writes Saving the School, a first-hand account of a year in the life of Reagan High, Garza, along with other teachers, was determined to turn things around for her school and her students.

The Flat World and Education, by Linda Darling Hammond

While scores on the tests required by “No Child Left Behind” have steadily (平稳地) risen, America’s students are always falling behind on international testing measures. Why? According to Stanford education professor Darling-Hammond, it’s because U.S. schools, “designed at the turn of the last century,” are in need of a complete change. In this book, she describes the latest education models used by schools all over the world, which she argues could offer a long-term road map to changing the American public school system.

【题目】I'm a pig,and my son is a rabbit. I have snakes for daughters,and my wife,believe it or not,is a dragon!Do I live in a zoo?No,of course not!I am talking about Chinese zodiac signs(十二生肖).Depending on the year of your birth,each person has an animal for a sign. That's why I am a pig and my wife is a dragon. If you,like me,were born in the year of the pig,then you are brave,thoughtful and loyal. The year of the pig is filled with good fortune.

Now let's take a closer look at this interesting animal.

Pigs were first raised by man about 9,000 years ago,and are still a very common farm animal in many parts of the world. We don't just use pigs for their meat—almost every part of the animal is used. The hair is used for artists' brushes. The fat is used to make floor wax,rubber and plastics.

Pigs have also been important in the world of entertainment. In 1995 the film Babe starred a loveable talking pig as its main character. The film won an Oscar and was nominated(提名)for 6 more. In England you can even go to watch pig racing. A farmer,Rob Shepherd,has been raising money for charity by holding pig races on his farm. The events have been very successful. People don't just want to eat pigs,it seems!

Pigs also play an important role in the English language. For example,if someone says that he will travel to the sun one day,you can say “Pigs_might_fly!” to him. Hungry?Well then,you can “pig out” and eat lots of food. And what if someone rescues you?Well,you can say that they “saved your bacon”.

【1】The writer wrote the first paragraph in a ________ tone.

A. sad B. confused

C. serious D. humorous

【2】According to Paragraph One,his wife was born in the year of the ________.

A. dragon B. snake C. rabbit D. pig

【3】We may know from the passage that ________.

A. people in England like pigs more than other animals

B. pigs are more useful than ordinary people imagine

C. pigs are the first animals raised by man

D. more people don't want to eat pigs now

【题目】Car washes are a common sight throughout Nigeria, but Madinat Aliyu's roadside business is very special: she is the only woman car-washer in the north of the country.

“This job has caused me a lot of problems,” said the 27-year-old, checking cars waiting to be cleaned in Gusau, the capital of Zamfara state.

Aliyu took up her work two years ago, hoping to use the 7,000 naira (28) she earned every month to put her younger sisters and brothers through school following the death of their mother, the only one who made money to support the family. But her family begged her to stop doing this job, and she has received “judgment and warnings” from strangers too.

“My grandmother cried for many days. Some people thought it was a joke to bring more customers (顾客). Others said if she is doing it for money, let's just give her money to stop bringing us shame,” she said as she got water from a well by the roadside. “But I hate laziness or depending on somebody else.”

However, Aliyu has admirers. “Some customers only allow her to wash their cars,” said her colleague (同事) Shamsudeen Mohammed. “I was trained to wash cars by men, and I can honestly tell you women are better to work under,” he added.

Recently another woman came to Aliyu to ask for advice on starting her own car wash. “Unfortunately her family discouraged her. I told her, if you listen to them, you will find yourself begging or marrying a man who is older than your grandfather,” she said.

Though she is considered a pariah (贱民) by many, Aliyu has no plans to stop her work. “I see men doing something and I think I can do it too.”

【1】Madinat Aliyu washes cars mainly to _____.

A. make a living

B. learn about cars

C. meet her future husband

D. know the life of the poor

【2】From the fifth paragraph, we know Shamsudeen Mohammed _____.

A. thought Aliyu did a good job

B. trained Aliyu to wash cars

C. had more customers than Aliyu

D. liked to work with men

【3】As a woman car-washer, Aliyu _____.

A. gets her family's support

B. dreams of going to school

C. is thought highly of by strangers

D. sets an example for the women in Nigeria

【4】Which of the following can best describe Aliyu?

A. Shy but smart.

B. Independent and confident.

C. Honest but lazy.

D. Humorous and imaginative.
