unit 5 travelling abroad*阅读理解。after a year of examining studies concerning whether homework is effective, nyc p.s. 116 elementary school decided that math worksheets and essay assignments were actually a waste of time. in february, principal jane hsu sent a letter to parents stating that the pre-k through fifth grade students would not be given any traditional homework to encourage kids to have free time for reading, playing outside, or doing activities they enjoy.the negative effects of homework have been well established, hsu wrote in a note to parents. they include: childrens frustration and exhaustion, lack of time for other activities and family time and, sadly for many, loss of interest in learning.some parents, however, disagree with the policy change, believing that a lack of focus will cause children to fall behind. homework has been part of education from the beginning, and has increased in volume in recent years.hsus advice that children should read and spend time with their families has upset some parents to the point of considering pulling their children out of p.s. 116. this group feels that homework assignments give children a goal to work toward. others feel so strongly about the importance of homework that they have begun giving their own homework assignments to their children.an australian childhood foundation survey found that 71% of australian parents feel they do not spend enough quality time with their children mainly because of the time spent running the household or the time spent helping with homework. education experts in australia are saying that parents should stop helping. doing so will give kids more independence, will give parents more free time, and will help reduce the number of homework-induced arguments in the family.while some research suggests that homework has little academic benefit for elementary students, other research shows homework can help kids develop independence, and confidence. it can also contribute to a sense of belonging or control over their lives. when parents try to help their children with homework, the assistance can take away that feeling and can also drain already exhausted working parents.1.cancelling traditional homework is aimed at _.a. allowing students to learn on their ownb. inspiring students to spend more time with parentsc. wishing students to seek self-developmentd. motivating students to help with housework2.what can be concluded from the 1st and 2nd paragraph?a. jane hsu is the first principal to cancel homework.b. jane hsu has done thorough research on homework.c. jane hsu paid little attention to students academic records.d. jane hsu knows students prefer activities to their subjects.3.why are some parents strongly against principal jane hsu?a. they have no time to give their children homework.b. they dont think the school is responsible for their kids.c. they are afraid their kids will fall behind.d. they dislike their kids doing too many activities.4.what is the authors attitude to parents helping kids with homework?a. supportive.b. indifferent.c. ironic.d. negative.【文章大意】这是一篇议论文，文章对是否应该给小学生布置家庭作业进行了论述。 1.c 【解析】考查细节理解。依据第一段末尾的.to encourage kids to have free time for reading, playing outside, or doing activities they enjoy可知，这所学校取消数学和作文这类家庭作业是为了让孩子们有更多的时间读书，在户外玩耍或者参加自己喜欢的活动，由此可推知这个学校希望学生们寻求自我发展。2.b 【解析】考查推理判断。根据第一段中的after a year of examining studies concerning whether homework is effective以及第二段的内容可知，校长对此做了全面的调查。4.d 【解析】考查观点态度。依据文章尾段中的when parents try to help their children with homework, the assistance can take away that feeling and can also drain already exhausted working parents可推知，对于家长在作业上帮助孩子的问题，作者持有否定的看法。*单句语法填空1choosing an _ (occupy) takes time, and there are a lot of things you have to think about.答案：occupationoccupy为动词“占用；占领；占据”；occupation名词“占领；职业；工作”。由设空前的冠词an可知此处应填名词。2were it not for science, we could not live a _ (comfort) life.答案：comfortable此处需用形容词修饰名词life。live a comfortable life “过一种舒适的生活”。3it is _ (acknowledge) that china has become one of the strongest countries in the world.答案：acknowledgedit is acknowledged that . “人们认为/据认为”。4i recommend him _ (think) very carefully before he does anything foolish.答案：to thinkrecommend sb. to do . “建议某人做某事”。5it is required that the new employees _ (provide) safety training before they start to work.答案：(should) be providedit is required that .
