21、onomically useful skills, but also to produce civilized young people who appreciate art and culture. While there are parents who will take their children to cultural places in their free time, there are plenty of other children who will never have this kind of opportunity unless schools offer it. So

22、 you could say that taking school students on field trips is a means of giving everyone equal access to their cultural heritage.However, the attitude towards field trips in recent years is changing, with the number of tours organized for school groups falling significantly in museums all around the

23、country. The most obvious reason is the issue of finance. Because there are increasing demands on their funds, after all, computers and sports facilities arent cheap, schools are forced to make a difficult choice about how to spend the limited money they have.Faced with this dilemma, field trips are

24、 an obvious thing to cut since they are seen by many as a luxury.Additionally,the nature of these field days is also changing.Schools increasingly use trips to amusement parks or sporting events as a treat for students rather than an opportunity for cultural learning. This shift could have a basis i

25、n generational differences between teachers reasons for organizing days out of school. A recent survey conducted among 500 Arkansas teachers showed that older teachers were significantly more likely to take the primary purpose of a field trip as a learning experience than younger teachers, who view

26、it as fun.Some evidence shows the trend of fewer trips may have a negative effect on childrens development. Research led by Jay Greene at University of Arkansas found that students who received a tour of an art museum greatly improved their knowledge of art and the ability to think critically about

27、art. They also displayed stronger historical interest and were more likely to visit cultural places in the future. The researchers warned that if schools cut field trips or switch to less educational destinations，valuable opportunities to broaden and enrich childrens learning experiences are lost.【语

30、.C细节理解题。根据第二段内容尤其是第二句“The most obvious reason is the issue of finance.”可知，造成实地考察减少这一趋势的最明显的原因是学校的资金问题。对学校的资金需求越来越大，在如何花有限的资金方面学校要被迫做出困难的选择。故C项正确。10What does the underlined phrase “This shift” in paragraph 3 refer to?AThe switch from old generations to young generations.BThe switch from sporting even

31、ts to cultural experiences.CThe change from an opportunity to learn to a treat to entertain.DThe change from educational destinations to luxurious attractions.C词义猜测题。根据第三段第二句可知，学校越来越多地利用这些出行去游乐园或参加体育比赛，当作是给学生的一种乐趣，而不是把这些出行当作学习文化的机会。结合下句中的主语“This shift”可知，这种转变是指“从学习文化的机会到娱乐的享受”，故C项正确。11What can be in

33、知，研究发现，参观艺术博物馆的学生极大地提高了他们的艺术知识和对艺术进行批判性思考的能力；他们还表现出更强烈的历史方面的兴趣，更有可能在未来参观文化场所。据此可推知，Jay Greene所做的研究表明实地考察提高了学生的文化意识，故A项正确。D(2021济南市学情诊断考试)We already know that eating too much salt can lead to heart disease.

35、big change in their behaviour. Mice are very curious, and they like to look for new things. However, the tested mice lost the ability to identify a normal object.

Dr Iadecola said the

37、 estimated two teaspoons of salt the average Australian eats each day could affect the brain function in the long term. However, the decline might not be as obvious as in the mice, who were given extremely high levels of salt. “But probably over years and perhaps decadesas opposed to a few months fo

51、做出改变的机会来了，故A项符合语境。5C考查上下文衔接。空前一句讲到了一个现成的咖啡馆经营不善，老板也不愿意再干了，空后一句则讲到了但是他没有足够的钱面对这一天，所以空处讲到的应该是面前这个机会就是他想要的，故C项符合语境。.完形填空(2021大连市双基测试卷)A few years ago, I went through a period of depression.
