The purpose of this manual is to help you to understand how you will assist with the successful implementation of this largescale student survey.11. What is PISA?PISA stands for the Programme for International Student Assessment, sponsored by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). PISA 2015 is the sixth PISA study that has been conducted since 2000 and involves more than 70 participating countries.PISA has the following characteristics：It is the worlds largest international survey in education.It surveys students aged about 15 years.It assesses students preparedness for adult life.Undertaking PISA is important because the results of the test can be used：to indicate how well prepared students in a country/economy are for learning once they leave school；to identify areas for improvement over time by schools, education systems, and governments; andto allow a comparison of student performance and the learning environment between different countries.12. Components of PISA 20151.2.1. Cognitive test42 students from each school will be randomly sampled to complete a 2hour computerbased test consisting of questions in science, mathematics, reading, and Collaborative Problem Solving.1.2.2. QuestionnairesThese students will also be asked to complete a 30 minutes Student Questionnaire on the computer either directly after the test sections or at a later time.1.2.3. Financial Literacy assessmentAfter the cognitive test and questionnaires, a subsample of 1011 students will take a computerbased Financial Literacy(FL) assessment. The 65minute Financial Literacy assessment tests students knowledge of personal finances and their ability to apply it to their financial problems.()56. According to the manual, each participating student of PISA should _A. be aged more than 15 years oldB. be of or above the average level in their classesC. spend 215 minutes for the programmeD. carry out all the tasks on the computer()57. What can we know about PISA from the passage?A. There will be over seventy countries participating in the seventh PISA in 2018.B. Top PISA scorers are more likely to succeed in their adult life than lower score owners.C. PISA will compare students personal performance based on their learning environment.D. The FL assessment is specially intended for students who are suffering financial problems.BIn todays China, exchanges between Chinese and Englishspeakers are increasingly frequent. English skills are important to Chinese if China wishes to play a stronger role on the world stage. However, the general English level of the Chinese people is on the decline.Chinas ranking in the 2015 EF English Proficiency Index dropped 10 drops. The Middle Kingdom was ranked 47th out of 70 countries rated, and is now on_par_with several Latin American countries. The report triggered widespread discussion in China: in an increasingly international nation, why is the peoples level of English getting worse?A decline in the English level of the Chinese people is no accident. With Chinas exambased education system, worsening English is inevitable. English education in China is too focused on grammar and ignored oral practice. This results in students that are often too scared to speak, for fear of making a mistake. Exambased courses make it so students merely learn for the test, not learn the language.In Latin America, nations do not have a rigorous exam system for English, but focus on promoting the language itself. Such programs that promote English include Chiles “English Opens Doors” program, Panamas “Panama Bilingual Education Program，” and Mexicos “10 Million People Plan.” Brazil, which also has a government program, is ranked first in the region for English.The Chinese government should first think about how to reduce the amount of pressure on students taking exams in order to promote change in the current system of rote English education. This is the most important step.Everyone has been recently focused on overseas returnees. The number of Chinese studying abroad has rapidly multiplied in past years. At the same time, the number of overseas returnees is increasing as well. The job market is also increasingly competitive for them and it is often more difficult for returnees to find a suitable job than it is for domestic graduates.Difficulties and pressure in the job market for overseas returnees deters a number of Chinese from studying abroad. As a result, the number of Chinese with highlevel English, carefully perfected abroad, has been reduced. This could be a major reason for why English is getting worse overall in China.While Chinas overall level of English has declined, it has not affected Chinas huge emphasis on English education and training. China remains one of the nations that is most committed to the study of English.()58. What do the underlined phrase “on par with” most probably mean?A. superior to B. relative to C. parallel to D. equal to()59. What does the writer want to do with this article?A. To advise the Chinese government to reform its exambased education.B. To analyze the reasons why Chinas general English level is on the decline.C. To report the phenomenon that there is a decline in English level of Chinese people.D. To compare the different ways of learning English between China and Latin America.()60. What measure can help improve English level of Chinese people?A. Stopping testing English in the educational examination system.B. Reducing the amount of pressure on students studying English.C. Encouraging more students to study in Latin American countries.D. Focusing more on expressive abilities and less on grammatical exams.CThe Oxford dictionary has announced its word of the year. Its spelled . Actually, it isnt spelled at all, because it contains no letters, just a “face with tears of joy” emoji.“The fact that English alone is proving not enough to meet the needs of 21stcentury digital communication is a huge change，” says Caspar Grathwohl, president of Oxford Dictionaries. When one of his dictionary colleagues suggested using an emoji instead of the word “emoji”， “lightbulbs_went_off”. Until recently, Grathwohl, who is 44, avoided using emojis altogether because he worried that he would look as if he “was trying to get in on teen culture”. “I felt inauthentic. But I think there was a tipping point this year. Its now moved into the mainstream.”Some 76% of the UK adult population owns a smartphone, and of those, between 80% and 90% use emojis. Worldwide, six billion are sent daily. The “face with tears of joy” is the most used, representing 20% of all UK and 17% of all US emoji use. It has overtaken the standard smileyface emoji in popularity, which may mean that emoji users are moving towards exaggeration or irony or fun, or that all this emoji use has brought everyone to a higher emotional plane. Even if you dont send emojis yourself, you will probably receive them.How far do emojis function as a language? “Theres a lot of prejudice against emojis，” Vyvyan Evans, a professor in linguistics at Bangor University, says. “A lot of people think they are a backward step, but this misunderstands the nature of human communication.” The picture is more complicated, with emojis offering both greater freedom and limitations than verbal language. “Emoji isnt a language as such. They dont develop in the way that the natural language does. But they are working according to the same principles of communication as the spoken language. What is the value of an emoji? I think I can prove this with an ordinary sentence.” There is a pause. “I love you，” he says. “Crikey(哎呀), I love you.” He says it again. The first time I think he means it; the second time we both know he doesnt. “The meaning is coming from extralanguage factors，” he says. “Emojis are performing the same function in digital speech.”Like any sortof language, emoji is evolving. “I do think they are subtle(微妙) and rich，” Grathwohl says. “They can mean different things to different people. The fact that we are using emoji in combination to express more complex ideas and experiences is one of the most fun and playful parts of the whole words. Will emoji finally come to look something more like traditional language that we understand？” he asks. “That would be interesting.”()61. The part “lightbulbs went off” in Paragraph 2 means that _A. the president became embarrassed and annoyedB. the president suddenly realized he was outdatedC. the suggestion was imme
