第1题：
The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten(幼儿园), usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is “morally wrong”. This statement has some support,as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.
Pre-school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr. Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the state, to expand it to every American child. It later became known that “every” meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line-equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.
Some critics(评论家)say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9 to 11 year olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended preschool had better literacy(读写能力), language, math and science skills. And two years of prekindergarten were better than one.
Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school-based early education.
21. The kindergarten in other rich countries usually begins()than in America.
A. earlier
B. later
C. slower
22. Which is TRUE about the vocabulary size of the two groups of kids?
A. Poor preschool kids have a larger vocabulary than rich ones.
B. Rich preschool kids have a larger vocabulary than poor ones.
C. There is no obvious difference between the two groups of kids.
23. Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?
A. There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.
B. Two years of prekindergarten were better than one.
C. Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.
24. The phrase “single out” in the last paragraph means().
A. count
B. think about
C. choose
25. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?
A. Secondary Education.
B. Preschool Education.
C. Poor Kids' Education.

第2题：
资料：Did your child's brain shrink last summer? Probably not, but it may have shifted into reverse, according to a study by Dr. Harris Cooper, professor of psychology at the University of Missouri-Columbia. The study found that when students return to school after a long summer vacation, they've lost one to three months worth of learning.
The decline is more detrimental for math than it is for reading. "All students lose math skills," says Cooper. It may be because community and home environments give kids more opportunities to practice reading than math. The study also found that income has an impact on how much a student loses or gains in reading. Middle-class children actually gained in reading over the summer, while lower-income students experienced losses. Cooper attributes this to the enrichment activities that many middle-class kids participate in over the summer, such as camp and trips.
Your kids don't have to spend the summer stuck in reverse. "Parents can help their kids retain educational skills," says Cooper. He suggests the following five tips to kick off a learning-filled summer.
1. Keep lots of books around and make regular trips to the library. Most libraries schedule special summer events for kids. Sign up your family!
2. Think about what your kids may be learning next year when you plan the family vacation. Talk with teachers to find out what they'll be covering in class. If it's a unit on the civil war for example, you may want to schedule a visit to Gettysburg. If it's geology, visit a national park.
3. Keep math in mind. Since kids lose more math skills than anything else over the summer, try to do some special planning to find math-related activities. For example, if you can't decide whether to sign your child up for "Shakespeare's Theater" or "Math Magic" at the local community center, go with the math.
4. Consider summer school or tutoring. Struggling kids can get a lot of different kinds of help from these programs. Summer school can also enrich and accelerate learning in areas where kids show a special interest.
5. Call the curriculum coordinator in your child's school district, visit the school board office, or contact the schools of education at local colleges and universities to find out what educational programs will be offered in your area over the summer.
Remember to keep it fun! You don't want to sour your kids on learning during the summer break.
How dose income affect a student’s loses or gains in summer learning? （ ）

第一篇
About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.
Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.
After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.
After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations.
Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older cililciren and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.F'arents may ieei uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the traditional child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.

答案：D
解析：
依据是第二段：Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.A选项中的“avoid(避免）”用在这里不准确，根据第二段内容，课后活动只能减少并没有说彻底避免危险行为及暴力行为的产生，因此不选A。根据第三段第一句话，很多活动会安排学生们在课后参加，所以他们并不是on their own（独自一人的），因此不选B。根据第三段第二句：...develop caring relationships with adults，可知并不是和同学之间，而是和成年人之间形成良好关系，因此不选C。
依据是最后一段的前两句话：...there are many reasons why some parents do not use them.Programs may be too expensive , of poor quality , or hard to join.根据最后一段第三句话：Some older children and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.可以判断出只是某些学生认为这样的活动类似于child care programs，因此不喜欢，但并不是家长们拒绝课后活动项目的原因。因此不选A。根据最后一段第四句话可知，这些活动并不是不给孩子们任何自由，故不选B项。C选项和前面第二段所讲的after-school pro-grams resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods矛盾，本身就不正确，更不是家长们拒绝课后活动的原因。
根据第四段第一句话可以得知，除了适合那种放学之后父母都不在家的孩子外，课后活动项目也同样适用于课后在朋友家闲混或打篮球，而家里会有一位父母或是其他成年人在场的情况，因此可以推断C是正确答案。文章中只说学生会在朋友家hang out，并没有说stay for a long time，因此不选A。根据第三段最后一句话：...high-quality relationships with parents and other adults...are very important for healthy development in youth.可以推断和父母亲以及成年人之间的良好关系对于年轻人的健康发展很重要，如果他们之间的关系不好，那么可能会对年轻人的健康发展不利，因此不选B。根据最后一段第三句话可以得知，只是某些学生不喜欢这样的课后活动，并非D选项中所说得那么绝对，因此不选D。
根据最后一段倒数第二句话可知，父母亲不确定到底可以给年龄较大已经过了托管年龄的孩子多大自由，可以判断父母亲并没打算让孩子们随心所欲，给他们彻底的自由，因此B选项的内容是不正确的。A选项的依据是第一段最后一句：...research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.C选项的依据是第三段第二句：In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours ,...D选项的依据是第三段第一句：After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence...
贯穿全文都在讲述after-school programs的必要性、作用、适合群体以及来自家长和学生的反应，因此最佳标题应该是After-school Programs。

第一篇
About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.
Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.
After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.
After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations.
Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older cililciren and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.F'arents may ieei uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the traditional child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.

答案：B
解析：
依据是第二段：Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.A选项中的“avoid(避免）”用在这里不准确，根据第二段内容，课后活动只能减少并没有说彻底避免危险行为及暴力行为的产生，因此不选A。根据第三段第一句话，很多活动会安排学生们在课后参加，所以他们并不是on their own（独自一人的），因此不选B。根据第三段第二句：...develop caring relationships with adults，可知并不是和同学之间，而是和成年人之间形成良好关系，因此不选C。
依据是最后一段的前两句话：...there are many reasons why some parents do not use them.Programs may be too expensive , of poor quality , or hard to join.根据最后一段第三句话：Some older children and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.可以判断出只是某些学生认为这样的活动类似于child care programs，因此不喜欢，但并不是家长们拒绝课后活动项目的原因。因此不选A。根据最后一段第四句话可知，这些活动并不是不给孩子们任何自由，故不选B项。C选项和前面第二段所讲的after-school pro-grams resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods矛盾，本身就不正确，更不是家长们拒绝课后活动的原因。
根据第四段第一句话可以得知，除了适合那种放学之后父母都不在家的孩子外，课后活动项目也同样适用于课后在朋友家闲混或打篮球，而家里会有一位父母或是其他成年人在场的情况，因此可以推断C是正确答案。文章中只说学生会在朋友家hang out，并没有说stay for a long time，因此不选A。根据第三段最后一句话：...high-quality relationships with parents and other adults...are very important for healthy development in youth.可以推断和父母亲以及成年人之间的良好关系对于年轻人的健康发展很重要，如果他们之间的关系不好，那么可能会对年轻人的健康发展不利，因此不选B。根据最后一段第三句话可以得知，只是某些学生不喜欢这样的课后活动，并非D选项中所说得那么绝对，因此不选D。
根据最后一段倒数第二句话可知，父母亲不确定到底可以给年龄较大已经过了托管年龄的孩子多大自由，可以判断父母亲并没打算让孩子们随心所欲，给他们彻底的自由，因此B选项的内容是不正确的。A选项的依据是第一段最后一句：...research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.C选项的依据是第三段第二句：In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours ,...D选项的依据是第三段第一句：After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence...
贯穿全文都在讲述after-school programs的必要性、作用、适合群体以及来自家长和学生的反应，因此最佳标题应该是After-school Programs。

第8题：
Passage One
Sharon Keating was worried about her kids when she got a divorce. Her daughter, says, "I was feeling.., like down and sad and even though I didn't really show it."
Judith Wallerstein says problems from divorce can stay for many years. They can show up when the kids are adults. As adults the kids have trouble.
Wallerstein studied 93 children over a generation. The results can only be found in her book.
She says children of divorce are more likely to have problems with drugs. They are far more likely to seek therapy. About 40-percent of them do not marry. Their marriages fail at nearly twice the usual rate. It is hard for them to trust. They are afraid of failing.
Critics say Wallerstein had too few children in her study. Other things may be the cause of the kid's problems. The study does not compare kids from divorced families with kids from "healthy" families.
Wallerstein's families divorced a generation ago. Times have changed. People feel different about divorce. Today programs like Kid's Turn try to lessen some of the effects of divorce with family counseling. Talking about their feelings helps the kids get through it.
Since they know more about the problems, maybe the kids will be able to handle it.
31. Children of divorce ______.
A. are always happy
B. Sometimes feel sad but don't really show it
C. are not affected
D. are always very angry
正确答案：B
第一段。当Sharon Keating离婚时，她的女儿承认很难过，虽然她并不表现出来。
