11、rners alikeand who wouldnt want bright kids to be able to move ahead?But for most kids, labels (標(biāo)簽) applied early in life tend to stick, even if they are wrong.Sorting school children by ability has long been controversial. In some countries, especially in Asia, school-wide tracking (分流) remains nor

12、mal. Children are tested and placed in different schools that direct them toward professional or vocational careers. Movement between the tracks is rare.School-wide tracking decreased in US schools in the 1960s and 1970s. It never died out, though. Sorting students into separate tracks for math at a

13、bout junior high school age continues to be common, and other forms of tracking persist as well.Unlike tracking, which means sorting students into separate classrooms, ability grouping happens within classrooms. When done according to the latest research, it has proven to promote achievements. Abili

14、ty grouping is changeable and temporary. Within classrooms, students might be divided into different learning groups dealing with materials of different levels. Any students who master concepts can move upward between groups, and the student groups might look different from subject to subject and un

15、it to unit. For instance, a student who stands out in language arts might be at an average or slower level in math. A student who flies through multiplication tables might need extra help with fractions. Students who lag in reading can be pulled out of the classroom in small groups for practice with

16、 a tutor until their reading improves.Research shows ability grouping within classes has more positive benefits than tracking. However, that must be weighed against the challenges involved. In many regular classrooms, the differences between student ability levels are very big. That presents challen

17、ges for teachers and low-performing students to constantly compare themselves with students who seem to fly through school with ease.The rigid ability groups and tracking of the past are still with us in many schools. Likely, labels are applied with more caution than in the bad old days when some te

18、achers gave reading groups not-so-secret code names like “Bluebirds”, “Robins”, “Crows” and “Buzzards”. But kids still know.1、Why is grouping children by ability becoming popular again?ABecause most teachers do not like slower learners.BBecause grouping children should be done early in life.CBecause

19、 it is academically beneficial to different learners.DBecause fast learners can move ahead without teachers help.2、By saying “Movement between the tracks is rare.” in paragraph 3, the writer really means .Atracking children is normal in AsiaBschool-wide tracking has decreased in USCprofessional and

22、, bring it to a store and seeing it turned into an object. This is new possible with the help of 3D printers. Such machines were once used just by universities and big companies, but now, stores with 3D printing services are appearing around the United States.Bryan Jaycox and his wife opened The Bui

23、ld Shop LLC in Los Angeles two years ago. The Jaycoxs offer 3D printing classes and services for anyone who is interested. “I think 3D printing is going to be huge. Its going to have a huge influence on society as a whole.” says KiChong Tran, one of the students in a recent class. He plans to open a

24、 3D printing business in Cambodia.3D printing services are coming into American peoples life. The UPS Store is a nationwide retailer that provides copying and other services. The UPS Store recently put 3D printers in three of its independently-owned stores. Burke Jones owns one of the stores in San

25、Diego. “The demand has been amazing. There has been a lot of interest from people. Its been much more than I would have imagined.” The UPS Store plans to add 3D printers in three more stores.At the UPS Store, the cost of the object depends partly on the amount of materials used. The store also chang

26、es up to $95 an hour to design the object with computer software that creates a digital file to guide the printer. Mr Jaycox thinks that within five years, 3D printing technology could become more consumer-friendly. But KiChong Tran says even todays technology can make a difference in a developing c

27、ountry like Cambodia. “With 3D printing you can give them tools, so they are responsible more for their own development and they learn skills beyond just like learning English and becoming a tour guide or something like that. You can actually create things that give value to the world.” He says its

28、not just Cambodia but anywhere where there is a 3D printer, it can turn a good idea into reality.1、What do we know about the UPS Store according to the text?AIt will add 3D printers in 3 more stores to meet peoples demand.BIt provides various services around the world.CIt charges customers for the t

31、（8分）That robots, automation, and software can replace people might seem obvious to anyone whos worked in automotive manufacturing. But MIT business scholars Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfees claim is more troubling and controversial. They believe that rapid technological change has been destroyin

32、g jobs faster than it is creating them.They believe that technology increases productivity and makes societies wealthier, but it became clear to them that the same technologies making many jobs safer, easier, and more productive were also reducing the demand for many types of human workers. Technolo

33、gies like the Web, artificial intelligence, and big data are automating many routine tasks. Countless traditional white-collar jobs, such as many in the post office and in customer service, have disappeared.As evidence, Brynjolfsson and McAfee point to a chart on which separate lines represent produ

34、ctivity and total employment in the United States. For years after World War II, the two lines closely tracked each other, with increases in jobs corresponding to increases in productivity. Then, beginning in 2000, the lines diverge; productivity continues to rise steadily, but employment suddenly s

35、hrinks. By 2011, a significant gap appears between the two lines, showing economic growth with no parallel increase in job creation.United States Productivity and EmploymentBut are these new technologies really responsible for a decade of lackluster (無生氣) job growth? David Autor, an economist at MIT

36、 who has studied the connections between jobs and technology, doubts that technology could account for such a sudden change in total employment. Moreover, he also doubts that productivity has, in fact, risen steadily in the United States in the past decade. If hes right, it raises the possibility th

37、at poor job growth could be simply a result of a depressed economy. The sudden slowdown in job creation “is a big puzzle,” he says, “but theres not a lot of evidence that its linked to computers.” “To be sure, computer technologies are changing the types of jobs available, but that is very different

38、 from saying technology is affecting the total number of jobs,” he adds. “Jobs can change a lot without there being huge changes in employment rates.”Lawrence Katz, a Harvard economist, says that while technological changes can be painful for workers whose skills no longer match the needs of employe

39、rs, no historical pattern shows these shifts leading to a net decrease in jobs over an extended period. Still, Katz doesnt dismiss the notion that there is something different about todays digital technologies. Though he expects the historical pattern to hold, it is “genuinely a question,” he says.

40、“If technology disrupts enough, who knows what will happen?”1、Which period on the chart strongly supports McAfees claim?A19471967. B19851987.C19972000. D20112013.2、According to David Autor, the change in job growth _.Ais not necessarily caused by technologyBresults from a weakening economyChas no co

DDisapproving.4、The main purpose of the passage is to _.Ashow the relation between productivity and job creationBdiscuss the effect of technological adv

It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is

43、 possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countr

44、ies have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newsp

45、apers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People dont want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some

46、 kind of danger and seem to be bad news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to r

47、ead stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.1、According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?AThey carry

48、 news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse.BThey tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.CThey watch TV or read newspapers.DThey listen to the radio every day.2、The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that _.Apeople can learn more about

49、the same news story from a newspaperBpeople can read the news story more quickly in a newspaperCpeople can read news stories in other countriesDpeople can read news stories about their own country3、According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV?AYou often play foo

50、tball with your friends after school.BYour teacher has got a cold.CA tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasnt been caught.DThe bike in front of your house is lost.25（10分） Inside a secured room in a beautiful castle near Paris, a small metal cylinder (圓柱體) rests on a shelf beneath a double set of

51、bell jars. It has lain there for more than a century, its rest only occasionally disturbed when the rooms three key holders perform a coordinated opening ceremony to let technicians enter and clean this precious piece of metal.First, the cylinder is rubbed with a piece of soft, alcohol-soaked cloth.

52、 Then it is steamed with pure water. Finally, the 1kg cylinder is returned, carefully, to its resting place.Such attention to a lump of metal is unusual, but has a purpose. The castle houses the International Bureau of Weights and Measures and that piece of shining, circular metal is its holiest rel

53、ic. It is the defining mass (質(zhì)量)against which all other kilograms are measured. This is the international prototype, or standard, of the kilogram. The IPK, in short.Dozens of carefully weighted copies of the original have been made. They are stored around the world and used to standardise individual

54、 nations weights and measures systems.But the days of the IPK, in its current form, are numbered. The International Bureau of Weights and Measures has decided to replace this single physical specimen with a more fundamental measurement based on electric current in order to define the mass of an obje

55、ct. The king of kilograms is about to be dethroned.“One key reason for doing this work is to provide international security,” says Bureau spokesman Paul Robinson. “If the castle burned down tomorrow and the kilogram was destroyed, we would have no reference left for the worlds metric weights system.

56、 There would be chaos. The current definition of the kilogram is the weight of that cylinder in Paris, after all.”Another major motivation for the replacement of the IPK is the growing need to be able to carry out more and more precise measurements. “Drug companies will soon be wanting to use ingred

57、ients that will have to be measured in terms of a few millionths or even billionths of a gram,” says Robinson. “We need to be prepared to weigh substances with that kind of accuracy.”1、What do we know about the IPK from the first two paragraphs?AIts cared for with great devotion.BIts used in religio

58、us ceremonies.CIts beautifully designed and decorated.DIts the most valuable metal in the world.2、Which of the following best explains “dethroned” underlined in paragraph 5?ArebuiltBremovedCdestroyedDupgraded3、What is a reason for replacing the current IPK?ATo protect the metal cylinder from damage.

59、BTo make taking measurements more economical.CTo provide all countries with the same standard.DTo satisfy the increasing demand for exactness.4、What can be a suitable title for the text?ANo more kilosBA heavy technologyCThe future of the kiloDThe history of measures第三部分 語言知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）
