Recently a new science behind incentives(激励), 【1】_ (include) in education, has been discussed.For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children 【2】_ (do) better in school.__【3】_ some cases, he gave students incentives based on input(输入), like reading certain books, while in 【4】___, the incentives 【5】 (base) on output, like results on exams.His main __【6】_ (find) was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect when based on output.Fryer’s conclusion was that the incentives for inputs might be 【7】____ (effect) because students do not know how to do better on an exam, apart from general rules like “study harder”.Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over 【8】__ they have much more control.
As long as you have direct control over your goal, you have 【9】__ much higher chance of success.And it’s easier to start again 【10】_ you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do.
【答案】
【1】including
【2】to do
【3】In
【4】others
【5】were based
【6】finding
【7】more effective
【8】which
【9】a
【10】if
【解析】
【1】including 考查非谓语,真正的谓语部分是在后半部分has been discussed,所以这里应该使用非谓语用法,且表示主动关系,用ing形式。
【2】to do 考查固定搭配,motivate sb to do激励某人做某事
【3】In 考查介词用法,In some cases在一些情况下。
【4】others 考查代词的用法,这里others代指学生。
【5】were based 考查被动语态和时态,整天时态是过去式,且与incentives之间是被动关系。
【6】finding 考查名词,因为后面有系动词,所以缺少主语,将find(动词)变为名词finding。
【7】more effective 考查比较级用法,语境之间是表示一个比较意味的。
【8】which 考查定语从句,先行词是物,所以用which。
【9】a 考查冠词的用法,因为后文有much higher chance of success是一个名词短语,缺少冠词来修饰。
【10】if 考查状语从句,if(如果...)句意:如果你失败了,而且这样开始也比较容易,因为你确切的知道你需要的是什么。
【题目】请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Research shows that the summer before college can be a dangerous time for teenagers, as they are between home and high school on the one side, and a more challenging and independent existence as a college student on the other.
Take drinking for example.Research has reported that teenagers tend to increase their alcohol use during the summer before college and in their first term.Such drinking can lead to tragedy: it’s estimated that more than 1,100 college students at 18 to 24 years of age die each year from alcohol-related injuries, including car crashes, and almost 600, 000 are injured under the influence of alcohol.
In addition to drinking, future freshmen may also have gaps in their knowledge about other aspects of university life.A study has found that students are “generally aware” of the fact that they have to place them into college courses and their school’s curricular requirements.In addition, many students hold misunderstandings such as “Getting into college is the hardest part”, and “I can take whatever classes I want when I get to college”.In fact, students’ courses may be determined by their level of preparation.
It is found that college-bound high-school graduates are faced with a number of potentially frightening tasks during the summer.For example, colleges typically require students to take placement tests(分班考试)and fill out a lot of paperwork, including housing and medical forms, over the summer.Completing these tasks may be especially frightening for low-income and first-generation college-bound students whose families may be short of experience with the college-going process.
In addition, it’s only in the summer after high-school graduation when students face the reality of paying the first college bill, which often includes unexpected costs like required health insurance.For college-intending students, successfully controlling the post-high-school summer thus requires a level of finance that may be unrelated to their ability to succeed in the classroom.As a result, students who have already broken through many barriers to college admission may fail to enter college.
Paring college-bound students with “fellow advisers”---students already in college who have been trained to support and coach their learners through the summer---improves the rate at which the learners show up at college.Even more wonderful, a low-cost campaign of text messages---in which researchers sent recent high-school graduates and their parents a series of eight to ten text-message reminders of key tasks to complete over the summer---is just as effective in increasing the rate of students who successfully make the change to college.
A little “summer pushing” could be a key step in getting students all the way across the finish line.
