阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节：下面文章中有5处（第61-65）需要添加小标题。请从（a、b、c、d、e和f）中选出符合各段意思的小标题，选项中有一项是多余项。a. new teachers opinions of involving parentsb. an argument over an assignmentc. a conflict between assumption and realityd. difficulties in sharing goalse. the best way to score highf. proper ways of parental involvement61. _ an iowa high school counselor gets a call from a parent protesting the “c” her child received on an assignment. “the parent argued every point in the essay,” recalls the counselor, who soon realized why the mother was so disappointed about the grade. “it became apparent that shed written it. ”62. _ in a survey, 90% of new teachers agreed that involving parents in their childrens education is a priority at their school, but only 25% described their experience working with parents as “very satisfying”. when asked to choose the biggest challenge they face, 31 of them quoted involving parents and communicating with them as their top choice. 73 of new teachers said too many parents treat schools and teachers as enemies.63. _ at a time when competition is rising and resources are limited, when battles over testing force schools to adjust their priorities, when cell phones and e-mail speed up the information flow and all kinds of private ghosts and public quarrels slip into the parent-teacher conference, its harder for both sides to step back and breathe deeply and look at the goals they share.64. _ everyone says the parent-teacher conference should be pleasant, civilized, a kind of dialogue where parents and teachers build partnership. but what most teachers feel, and certainly what all parents feel, is anxiety and panic.65. _ when a teacher asks parents to be partners, he or she doesnt necessarily mean mom or dad should be camping in the classroom. research shows that though students benefit modestly from having parents involved at school, what happens at home matters much more. according to research based on the national education longitudinal study, a sample of nearly 25,000 eighth graders, among four main areas of parental involvement (home discussion, home supervision, school communication, and school participation), home discussion was the most strongly related.第二节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c、和d）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。amy six-year-old came home from school this week with two envelopes. one was for a donation to help people in the philippines. the other was to help hungry families have a thanksgiving meal.“ill put a check in each of these. then you can add your own money from your piggy bank, okay?” i said, thinking hed be so excited to put his own stamp on things.“thats okay, mom. you put money in. i dont want to waste mine,” he sweetly sang as he colored. “i want to fill my bank all the way up.”ack! i guess i know what our dinnertime discussion will be about tonight, i thought.i had figured that through watching his parents donate items, helping us take toys from time to time to needy kids and putting money in the basket at church, he would just understand why it was important to help people in need and even want to do it himself.but of course he doesnt really understand yet. “theres a big disconnect between the people over there and my piggy bank,” said parenting educator vicki hoefle.“theres nothing wrong with the child. theres just no connection.”as for having that conversation immediately, or forcing my son to put money into the envelopes: “try not to do it now,” hoefle said. teaching a child about donating their own money or toys or time to people in need “should be a gentle introduction into what we hope will be a way of life for our kids.”she suggested these things to help children understand the importance of giving:* just talk about it. then explore the issue from a perspective he can understand.* use the course of a year to introduce kids to opportunities. that way, they wont be shocked when you ask them to stuff their own money into an envelope （like this writer just did）.* pick a family charity for the year and have a conversation about how you all can help throughout the year.* think of this not as something you must teach, but as something to expose them to.at her house, hoefle said, “when you got something new, you gave something up.” each birthday, her children would pick what toys they had outgrown and give them away. “there was a comfort in it. it just became a natural part of the kids lives.”so i will fill those envelopes alone this time. but ill make sure he understands why they should be filledgradually.66. when the writer asked her son to give money to help the poor, he _. a. declined to donate b. sang a sweet song c. put all his money in a bankd. seemed very surprised67. hoefles attitude towards childrens unwillingness to donate money can be best described as “_”. a. criticalb. tolerantc. positived. worried68. which of the following is hoefles approach to educating kids about charity? a. giving courses about charity. b. setting a rule for children to give. c. inviting a lot of poor people home. d. giving children enough real life chances.69. what can we learn about the writer from the passage? a. she often makes donations for people in need. b. she taught her son a lesson over dinner that evening. c. she is at a loss as for what she should do next. d. she invited a parenting educator home for advice.70. what is the best title of the passage? a. kids, please help those in need. b. why are kids unwilling to donate? c. kindness is lost in the young generation. d. how can we help kids learn generosity?blondon, feb. 18，2014（xinhua news agency）britain will send experts to east chinas shanghai to learn from the citys experience in maths teaching in an attempt to raise the teaching standards.british education minister elizabeth truss is to lead a delegation of experts on a fact-finding mission to shanghais schools next week to see how children there have become the best in the world at maths, to get a first-hand look at maths classes and teaching methods there, and particularly to investigate why the performance of almost all children in shanghai is high, regardless of gender or income. britain was last year placed 50th out of 148 countries and regions in the world economic forums competitiveness ranking in quality of maths and science education. two years ago, shanghai topped the 2012 international pisa tables for maths, while england was ranked in 26th place. the top five were all in southeast asia, with 15-year-olds in shanghai judged to be three years ahead of their peers in maths.the education department said: englands performance in maths has lagged behind while other countries have improved and overtaken us, including poland and germany. actually, it is the latest step in the governments drive to raise standards in maths, looking at what has made schools in the far east the most successful in the world in teaching the subject.shanghai is the top-performing part of the world for mathstheir children are streets ahead. shanghai and singapore have teaching practices and a positive mind that make the difference. they have a belief that diligence makes up for lack of ability, truss said. our new curriculum has borrowed from theirs because we know it worksearly learning of key arithmetic, and a focus on times tables and long division（长除法）, for instance. she was determined to change the situation as performance in maths is weakening the countrys skills base and threatening the productivity and growth. the government is emphasizing maths because of the importance of good grades in the subject to young people competing for good jobs in a global labor market and to the economy more generally.an education and skills survey released by the confederation of british industry last year showed that 30 percent of employers reported dissatisfaction with the standard of school and college leavers numeracy. more than two-thirds of employers said they wanted both maths and science promoted more in schools.71.why does the british government send a delegation of experts to shanghai?a. to see how children from r
