第7题：

Text 2 Disruptive students are a headache for public schools.They distract from lessons,skip class,and often bring down the graduation rates.That's why school districts across the country have resorted to opening altemative schools in recent decades,with hopes that smaller classes and individual attention might help these students get their diplomas.But even these alternative schools（which differ from charter schools in that they are still part of school districts and thus answer to supervisors）can be a burden:They're expensive to run,and their graduation rates are still pretty low.Desperate for help,many school districts are now hiring private companies to manage these altemative schools and educate their most troublesome students.Large,urban districts like Chicago and Philadelphia have been working with this emerging industry for several years now.Though research shows that problematic students in Philadelphia did better in alternative schools than traditional ones,there is a wide variance in school quality,and detailed information about their curricula is scarce.The question on the table is whether a business whose job it is to make money can better educate vulnerable students than a public system with no profit motive.It's not too different from the dynamic between the federal government and the private companies running its prisons across the country.But the Justice Department announced last week that it would stop contracting with the private sector,in part because it doesn't seem to save that much money,and in part because the service didn't improve either.Richmond is one of the latest cities to experiment with outsourcing education.In July,the city hired a Texas-based company called Camelot Education to run the Richmond Altemative SchooL which last year served 223 students from across the city in grades 6 through 11.Nearly all of the students at Richmond Alternative are black（97 percent）and most are poor（87 percent qualify for free lunches）.Somc black parents once dubbed it the"colored children's prison"and it has been criticized for contributing to what's called the school-to-prison pipeline-Virginia is the state that refers the most students to law enforcement.Data provided by Richmond's school district shows that its altemative school has been floundering for years,When the school year ended three months ago,the numbers were alarming:The dropout rate had jumped to 38 percent,compared t0 28 percent just two years earlier.And students'scores in nearly every subject had fallen by 50 percent or more during that time.
It can be inferred that alternative schools are founded to_____

A.offer diplomas to disruptive kids
B.lay heavy burdens on local schools
C.provide smaller classes and individual attention
D.prevent disruptive children from entering public schools

答案：A

解析：

推理判断题。根据定位词定位到第一段第三句。该句提到，“希望小班和个人关注能够帮助这些学生获得文凭”，故A项“给问题学生提供文凭”为正确选项。【干扰排除】B项“给当地学校带来沉重的负担”是当地学校和政府的问题，不是非传统学校的问题，可排除；c项“提供小班和对个人的关注”是校方希望通过这样的方式来帮助问题学生，而不是非传统学校建立的目的，故C项错误；问题学生让公立学校很头疼，但是并没有直接提到他们被公立学校抛弃，他们就读的非传统学校只是酱通学校的一部分，故D项错误。

问答题

Practice 2　　Private school does not mean better. But it does mean expensive. Public schools in the US are paid for by money from everyone; private schools are not. Parents who send their children to private schools must pay to do so.　　Parents may have enough money to pay for private schools. But these schools do not have to accept their children. Most private schools accept only children who are already doing well in school and are able to work quietly, Some take only boys or only girls. Classes are often quieter and less crowded than classes in public schools. This gives children a chance to learn more of what their teachers are trying to teach them.　　Public schools do not teach religion. So some parents choose private religious schools for their children. These schools each belong to a church. 6 They give lessons about that religion. They give lessons in all the usual school subjects as well.　　Children at many private schools wear special school uniforms, all exactly the same. At public schools, students wear what they want. They often dress in bright colors and tennis shoes. They sometimes invent new and wonderful fashions.

正确答案：【参考译文】
私立学校并不一定比公立学校好,但上私立学校肯定比上公立学校贵。公立学校的办学经费用的是每一个公民纳税的钱,而私立学校却不是这样。家长如果想把自己的孩子送到私立学校去念书,他们就得自己付钱。
即使家长有钱付学费,私立学校也不一定非得把孩子收下来。大部分的私立学校一般都只收学习成绩较好而又遵守纪律的学生。有的私立学校只收男生,而有的私立学校又只收女生。与公立学校相比,私立学校每个班的人数要少些,学生也能遵守课堂纪律。这样,学生在学校里就能学到更多的知识。
公立学校不设宗教课程。所以,有些家长就把自己的孩子送到私立的教会学校去上学。这类教会学校一般都属于某个教派,在学校里,他们就给学生上自己教派的宗教课程。当然,其他学校教的所有的课程,教会学校也都得教。
许多私立学校的学生都得穿式样统一的校服。在公立学校,学生爱穿什么就可穿什么。他们往往穿着艳丽的衣服和网球鞋;有时,学生们也会搞些新花样,很快就成为流行的时装。

问答题

Classes at American College　　The year at an American college is divided into 2 semesters or 3 quarters. Semesters are 15 weeks; quarters are 10 weeks. American college students usually attend school from September to May. Occasionally their academic pursuits extend into the summer.　　Students choose their classes a few weeks prior to the start of each term. Universities offer a great many classes in the students’ main area of study and in other areas as well. Students must take both. These include science, mathematics, computer, history and English. Other classes may be just for fun, like dance, theater or sports. Tests usually are given in the middle of the term and at the end3. The final examinations are extremely important. In some classes, the professor asks the students to write a research paper or complete a certain task instead of taking a test.　　Classes usually are organized through lectures. For example, a student may attend 2 or 3 lectures a week by the professor. As many as several hundred students sit at each lecture. Sometimes they also attend a smaller class to ask questions and discuss what the professor says4. These small classes are taught by professor’s assistants. In science classes, students also have a long laboratory class each week.　　What do American students study at college? The US Department of Education says the most popular area of study is sciences and management. Next is social science, which encompasses history, sociology, literature, public relations and political science. English is another popular field of study. Then comes computer science and health and life sciences like biology, chemistry and physics. Education is popular, too. Foreign languages are not popular as a main area of study among American college students. However, students at many colleges must study a language other than English before they can graduate. The most popular foreign language is Spanish, followed by French and German.

正确答案：【参考译文】
美国大学的课程在美国大学里,一学年常分为两个学期或三个学季。每学期为15周,而每学季为10周。美国大学生上课时间通常从九月份到第二年的五月份。有时在夏季他们也继续在校学习。
每学期开始前,学生提前几周选课。大学为学生的主修科目和辅修科目开设了许多课程。大学生二者都必须选修。这些课程包括自然科学、数学、计算机、历史和英语。其他一些课程,如舞蹈、戏剧或体育,仅是为了娱悦。期中和期末一般要举行考试。期末考试尤为重要。有些课程不考试,教授让学生写论文或完成某项任务即可。
上课一般以讲课形式进行。例如,学生可以一周听教授讲课两次或三次。每次讲课可多达几百人。有时他们也上小课,提问题并讨论教授所讲内容。小课由助教来上。理科班学生每周还有一次很长的实验课。
美国学生在大学里学些什么呢?美国教育部说,最热门的专业是理科和管理。其次是社会科学,包括历史、社会学、文学、公共关系和政治学。英语也很吃香。接着是计算机科学、保健和生命科学,如生物学、化学和物理。教育专业也受青睐。美国大学生读外语专业的人不多,然而许多大学的学生必须学一门英语以外的语言才能毕业。最热门的外语是西班牙语,其次是法语和德语。

第13题：

The text indicates that private schools are very selective because they

[A] have no reliable methods to pick students for a class.

[B] want a good mixture of boys and girls for classes.

[C] encounter more demand than they can cope with.

[D] prefer to enroll children of their relatives.

正确答案：C
43．C该题为推理题。根据第三段“The problem for the applicants is that while demand has increased．supply has not.”可知申请私立学校的人数在增加，但私立学校的招生名额却没有增加。接着第四段详细讲了一些私立学校如何选择学生。由此可推断，私立学校对学生如此精挑细选的原因在于有太多的学生申请，他们不得不通过各种方法来选择学生。选项A与文章的意思有所出入，第四段第二句“Schools know there is no easy way to pick a class when children are so young.”可知学校认为选择学生没有简单的方法，并不是如A项所表示的选择的方法不可靠。选项B是某些学校选择生源的方法，即男女比例协调，由此可知A、B两项不能作为学校精心选择学生的原因。选项D在文中没有提及，故选C。

Passage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

Online learning is also called distance education, which helps students who take classes by computer over the Internet to learn certain courses and earn a degree. And it has become more and more popular with both young people and educational institutions.

The School of Continuing and Professional Studies of New York University in Manhattan began online classes in 1992. Its Virtual School has taught more than 10,000 students from across the United States and other countries.

Last year，the school launched NYU Online. It offers NYU's first online Programs for a bachelor's degree. Programs are offered in three areas; leadership And management, information systems management and social sciences. The classes are highly interactive where students communicate with each other and their teachers. Some classes require students to log in at the same time so they can attend live lectures by a professor Students can also ask questions and work together on team projects.

The cost to attend NYU Online depends on how many classes a student is to take It costs as much as fifteen thousand dollars a year. NYU offers no financial aid for international students in this program. If you are interested in the program, you can gel more details at the website: www..nyu.edu. Many other schools, too, offer online education. Students should be especially careful of programs that offer a degree in return for little or no work. These are known as diploma mills, and are illegal in the United States.

Educational advisers also say that before you enter any program, make sure the work will be recognized in your country. You should also make sure the schools you are considering are officially approved.

26. The third paragraph is mainly about the __ of the programs of the School.

A. academic goal and system

B. courses and learning mode

C. learning methods and classes

D. courses and requirements

正确答案：B

第17题：

Which of the following describes the paradox of the schools?

A.Discrepancy between what they say and what they do.
B.Differences between teachers' problems and schools' problems.
C.Advantages and disadvantages of students’ learning opportunities.
D.Students' perception and the reality of their performance on assessments.

答案：D

解析：

细节题。根据关键词定位到第四段。根据原文“Their achievement results fed into the implicit mission of schools:the greater the spread of achievement among students, the more it reinforcedthe rank order. This is why, if some students gave up and stopped trying (even dropped out of school),that wasregarded as the student's problem, not the teacher's or the school's.”可知，学生之间成绩流传得越广，成绩的排名就越固定。结合前文及此处内容，也就是说成绩决定了学生学习的态度，态度决定了他们的排名表现。故本题选D。

第18题：

There is now intense competition between schools to attract students.

A:severe
B:intended
C:unexpected
D:unavoidable

答案：A

解析：

本句意思是：现在学校间为了吸引学生入学竞争激烈。句中intense意为“强烈的，紧张的”，如：The President is under intense pressure to resign．总统承受着巨大的辞职压力。四个选项中severe意为“严重的”，如：She suffered from severe depression after losing her job．她失业后患了严重的抑郁症。 intended意为“有意的”o unexpected意为“意料之外的”，如：The announcement was not entirely unexpected.这个通告并非完全出乎意料。unavoidable意为“不可避免的”，如：Some mistakes are unavoidable.有些错误是无法避免的。只有选项 A同句中画线单词含义接近。

The most appropriate title for the text would be_____

A.Can a Private Company Teach Troubled Kids?
B.Alternative Schools-Prison or Paradise for Troubled Kids?
C.Federal Government Failed to Run Alternative Schools
D.Altemative Schools in Philadelphia Do Better than Other Schools

答案：A

解析：

主旨大意题。文章主要讨论的是私人公司来管理非传统学校，教育问题学生的内容，并对这种方式提出疑问，可推测A项“私人公司能教好问题学生吗？”是最佳答案。【干扰排除】文章的主要内容是讨论私人公司是否能管理好非传统学校和问题学生，并不是讨论非传统学校本身，所以B项排除；C项“联邦政府未能开办非传统学校”是政府运营管理的问题，并非本文论述的主要内容．可排除：D项“费城的非传统学校比其他学校做得更好”是文中提到的一个案例，不能概括全文的内容，所以D项错误。

_________(55)
A:a
B:the
C:some
D:/

答案：A

解析：

attend school意为“上学”;A应改为go to ; take part in意为“参加”;enroll意为“注册，登记”，通常和介词in或者at搭配使用，如：" enroll in an English training course”报名参加英语培训课。
run有“经营”的意思，这里是一个过去分词，用于被动语态。
本句话中的while表示转折，意思是虽然教会学校没有私立学校那么昂贵，但是通常多少也要有些费用。
spend money on sth.是个固定搭配，意思是“把钱花在······上”。pay的用法一般是pay money for sth.意思是“为······付钱”。cost的主语一般不是人，而是东西，如： This book cost me $30.这本书花了我30美元。take一般用于“It takes sb.some time to do sth.”结构，如：It took me a long time to work out this maths problem.我花了好长时间才算出这道数学题。
a great variety of是“各种各样的”的意思。
这里是不定式作后置定语的情况，send their children to school意思是“送他们的孩子上学”。
where引导的定语从句修饰schools，意思是班级人数较少的学校。
in one's opinion是“在某人看来”的意思。
"be of+n.”这样的结构相当于“be + adj." , " is not of high quality to meet their needs”的意思是“质量不够高不能满足他们的要求”。
主语是复数名词，因此应该在A项differ和C项extend中间作选择，differ 意为“不同”; extend意为“延伸，扩展”。因此differ在意思上最合适。
meet one's needs = meet the needs of sb.意为“满足某人的需要”。
这里是介词加which引导定语从句的情况，to a degree是个固定搭配，意思是“在很大程度上”。
可以根据上下句判断出这里需要一个形容词，surprised的意思是“吃惊的”，一般用于表示人，如：She is surprised at the fluency of my oral English．她对我流利的英语口语感到吃惊。surprising的意思是“令人吃惊的”，可以用来表示事情。striking的意思是“显著的”，如：striking increase明显的增加。
“由······组成”的表达方法有consist of , be comprised of , be composed of和be made up of，这里需要一个分词作定语来修饰。rganizations，因此选择consisting , " orgarnzations consisting of parents and students”的意思是“由家长和老师组成的机构”。
talk to sb.的意思是“和某人讲话”; comment on sth.的意思是“对某事发表评论”;discuss sth.的意思是“讨论某事”; exchange后一般跟opinions或者ideas之类，表示 “交换观点、看法”。这句话说的是他们碰面讨论关于学校的各种事情。
