Different background shouldn’t mean less education. Fifty years ago, in a primary school classroom, two boys aged 11 took an examination called the 11-plus, 【1】would make decisions about the rest of their lives. Paul passed and went to a “grammar school”. Baz failed the examination and went to a “secondary modern school”. They did not see each other again for years.

Many grammar schools 【2】(establish) hundreds of years ago to teach the Latin language to children who were not from rich families. They encouraged students to study 【3】they were 18 and then to go to university. Secondary modern school students left at 16, usually with fewer qualifications than grammar school students. Baz says the secondary modem school had 【4】(few)resources and the quality of teaching was not as good.

Things have changed. In the 1960s and the 1970s “comprehensive schools” were created. Today, 90 percent children aged 11 to 16 from the same area to the same school without 【5】(take) any entry examination.

The British often disagrees about the best way 【6】(educate) their children. Many people say that comprehensive schools help more children to succeed because they provide everybody 【7】similar opportunities in a fairer way. Another view, though, is that more intelligent children, especially 【8】from poor homes are better supported at grammar schools. Now, the government plans to open new grammar schools 【9】almost two million children will go to the same type of school that Paul attended.

And Paul and Baz? Aged 60, they met again and compared 【10】had happened to them. After university, Paul qualified as a teacher. Baz went to work in a factory at 16 and later became an engineer. In fact, Baz had a much higher salary than Paul--so perhaps life is fair after all.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文，用保羅和巴茲的例子介紹了文法學(xué)校和綜合性學(xué)校的異同以及英國人對兩種學(xué)校的看法。

【1】考查非限定性定語從句。句意：50年前，在一所小學(xué)的教室里，兩個11歲的男孩參加了一項名為“11歲以上”的考試，這項考試將決定他們以后的人生。此處為非限定性定語從句，關(guān)系詞指代先行詞an examination called the 11-plus，并在從句中作主語，故填which。

【2】考查時態(tài)語態(tài)。句意：數(shù)百年前，許多文法學(xué)校成立，以教授非富裕家庭的孩子拉丁語。事情發(fā)生在過去，Many grammar schools 與establish之間是被動關(guān)系，所以用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)，主語是復(fù)數(shù)，謂語動詞也應(yīng)該用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填were established。

【3】考查連詞。句意：他們鼓勵學(xué)生學(xué)到18歲，然后上大學(xué)。此處缺少連詞，根據(jù)句意可知此處表示“直到”，故填until。

【4】考查形容詞比較級。句意：巴茲說，現(xiàn)代中學(xué)資源較少，教學(xué)質(zhì)量也不太好�？涨罢f現(xiàn)代中學(xué)的學(xué)生16歲就畢業(yè)了，他們的學(xué)歷通常比文法學(xué)校的學(xué)生要低，因此此處有一個隱晦的比較意義，表示“（比文法學(xué)校）資源更少”，應(yīng)該用形容詞比較級形式，故填fewer。

【5】考查非謂語動詞。句意：今天，90%來自同一地區(qū)的11到16歲的孩子到同一所學(xué)校就讀，沒有參加任何入學(xué)考試。作介詞without的賓語用動名詞，且children與take之間是邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系，表示主動，故填taking。

【6】考查非謂語動詞。句意：英國人在教育孩子的最佳方法上常常意見分歧。way后通常用不定式做后置定語，表示“……的方法”，故填to educate。

【7】考查介詞。句意：許多人說，綜合性學(xué)校幫助更多的孩子取得成功，因為它們以更公平的方式為每個人提供了類似的機會。provide sb with sth表示“為某人提供某物”，故填with。

【8】考查代詞。句意：不過，另一種觀點是，更聰明的孩子，特別是那些來自貧困家庭的孩子，在文法學(xué)校得到更好的支持。此處指代與前面的more intelligent children同一類的人，表示“那些”，用復(fù)數(shù)，故填those。

【9】考查目的狀語從句。句意：現(xiàn)在，政府計劃開設(shè)新的文法學(xué)校，這樣近200萬兒童將上保羅就讀的同一類型的學(xué)校。此處引導(dǎo)目的狀語從句，表示“以便”，故填so that。

【10】考查賓語從句。句意：保羅和巴茲呢？60歲的時候，他們又見面了，比較了他們的境遇。此處為賓語從句，從句中缺少主語，故填what。

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容寫一篇60詞左右的內(nèi)容概要。

While many of us go to sleep before midnight, some teenagers choose to stay up much later. They are not driven by the burning desire to write a better essay or achieve a higher grade. Instead, they are busy playing online games. Known as young Internet addicts (有癮的人), they have long been a problem in China. A report released (發(fā)行) in 2016 by the China Youth Association for Network Development showed that there were over 24 million young Internet addicts among China’s young urban Internet users. The report also said that over 18 million youths had a tendency to develop Internet addiction.

To deal with the problem of Internet addiction among teenagers, the Cyberspace Administration of China has released draft (草案) regulations which carried out a ban on online gaming. If the regulations are adopted under-18s would be banned from playing online games between midnight and 8 am.

As soon as the government’s draft law surfaced, it drew great attention from the public. Some support the law as a way to better protect teenagers, saying that too much overnight gaming is harmful to teenagers’ health and believing the period between midnight and 8 am to be important to human physical functions. However, others wondered whether it would be practical if it came into effect, as teenagers could just borrow their parents’ IDs to register (注冊) accounts to play online games. The Guangming Daily suggested that parents should help their teenagers find a balance between the cyber world and the real world.

China is by no means the only one trying to fight against teenager gaming addiction. Germany introduced a regulation in 2002 in an attempt to stop teens from playing online games from 10 pm to 6 am. Meanwhile, the UK, the US and Australia have forced a rating system on computer games to make sure that teenagers cannot access “adult” content such as violence, sex or bad language.

【題目】 Does stress cause gray hair? Many people believe that tension and stress can cause your hair to lose its color. In fact, it is an old-wives’ tale that being upset all the time can result in premature graying. Here is a closer look at this situation and why some believe that this old wives’ tale could be true.

As one ages, the hairs on the head also age. In fact, just about everything on the human body begins to show signs of wear and tear (磨損) after a while. The joints wear and become stiff and skin wears and becomes wrinkled. Hairs on the head grow and eventually die. They are replaced, but in the process something else happens.

When new hairs are replacing the old ones, the color or pigment (色素) is also added to them. However, as one ages, this pigment becomes less and less available. At first, hairs will have a limited amount of pigment and they will appear to be grayish in color. In time, they will lose all of their pigment and will be white. Many things are known to cause graying, and genetics is a very powerful factor. If one of your parents turns gray at an early age, there is a good chance that you will too. Some people begin the graying process in high school, while others may be over the age of forty.

Constant worry and tension can have many harmful effects on the human body. It is a known fact that stressful times can cause one to suffer hair loss. It would make sense that if it can cause these problems, perhaps it also may contribute to graying. However, there is no sound evidence to support this.

On the other hand, many medical professionals believe that there may be a link between graying and a constant state of anxiety or tension. Does stress cause gray hair? There is no scientific evidence to support the theory, but it is best to avoid stressful situations.

【1】The underlined phrase in the first paragraph most probably means________.

A.clever remarksB.silly remarksC.exciting remarksD.disappointed remarks

【2】The second paragraph mainly tells us __________.

A.every part of body is replaced with ageB.hairs will grow weak but not die

C.skin becomes wrinkled with ageD.every part of body ages with age

【3】What might play the most important role in the graying process?

A.Genetics and the amount of sleeping time.

B.The amount of food people eat and living environment.

C.The amount of pigment and genetics.

D.Genetics and the amount of water people drink

【4】From the passage we can infer that________.

A.stress causing gray hair is still in question

B.gray hair has nothing to do with tension

C.stressful situations can be of benefit

D.sound evidence has been found

Lei Haiwei kept calm during the final of the Third Season of CCTVs Chinese Poetry Competition on Wednesday night, becoming the champion after defeating Peng Min, a master of literature from China's top university.

Lei, 37, from Shaoyang, Hunan Province, is now working as a food delivery man in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. His interest in poetry was inspired by his father, who would wnte poems down, stick them on the wall of the kitchen and teach him to read them from a young age.

Lei missed the opportunity of going to university due to frequent school transfers when he was growing up. But that didn't diminish his passion for poetry.

Lei's outstanding performance during the final, and his inspirational story, have amazed Chinese audiences.

"His love of learning is so pure,it moved me to tears,” one netizen said. "It always amazes me how some people simply hunger for knowledge, ” another shared.

【題目】I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.

I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(貓頭鷹) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.

I examined the chick(雛鳥) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.

The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.

Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.

A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.

【1】What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?

A. Effortsmadeinvain.
