解答 Recently I have joined in a discussion on the Internet about whether more MET opportunities should be provided each year.Of course,different people have different opinions on the issue.Some are in favor of this idea,while others express their worries about it.(高分句型)
Those who are for this idea think that more test opportunities each year meets the need for MET reform.(高分句型)It allows students to have more chances and also helps reduce the stress of both parents and students.
Those who feel worried believe that more test opportunities each year will add too much of burden to both students and teachers.(高分句型) Besides,it will be a waste of money,labor and other social resources.
As far as I am concerned,the more chances the better.More test opportunities each year will improve the fairness of MET.
点评 英语写作是一项主观性较强的测试题.它不仅考查学生的写作基础而且还考查学生在写作过程中综合运用语言的能力.在撰写时要注意主谓语一致,时态呼应,用词贴切等.要提高英语写作水平,需要两方面的训练:一是语言基础方面的训练,要有扎实的造句、翻译等基本功,即用词法、句法等知识造出正确无误的句子;二是写作知识和能力 方面的训练以掌握写作方面的基本方法和技巧.
Powerful,yes,but not always(46)D.For years I dealt with my travel agent only by phone.Rani,my faceless agent whom I'd never met (47)A,got me rock-bottom prices on airfares,cars,and hotels.But her cold voice really (48)A me.I sometimes wished to(49)C another agent.

Sitting back in the car on the way to the airport,I figured it all out.Rani's(59)C-her warm smile,her nods,her‘I'm here for you'(60)B-were all silent signals that didn't travel through wires.

It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel(方向盘),his car becomes the additional part of his personality.There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's very worst qualities.People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel.They swear,they are ill-mannered and aggressive,willful as two-year-olds and completely selfish.All their hidden anger,disappointments and envies seem to be exposed by the act of driving.
The surprising thing is that society only smiles so kindly on the motorist when seeing his behaviors talked about above.Everything is done for his convenience.Cities are allowed to become almost unsuitable to live because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is damaged by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic,to be conveniently forgotten.
It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life.In regard to driving,the laws of some countries are dishonorably loose and even the strictest are not strict enough.A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate.Here are a few examples of some things that might be done.The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through inflexible annual tests for safety.Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can destroy a person's driving ability,so present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter.The highest and lowest speed limits should be put on all roads,as has been done in the USA.All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned.These measures may sound unacceptably harsh.But surely nothing should be considered to be too severe if it results in reducing the annual loss of human life.After all,the world is for human beings,not for motor-cars.

Gaul,with about 170seventh-and eighth-graders,has its own history of lower level academic achievement.One likely reason:education beyond the basic requirements hasn't always been a top priority for families who've worked the same land for generations.Here,few adults have college degrees,and outsiders(teachers included) are often kept at a respectful distance.
Since 2002,Gaul's students have been divided into four classes,each of them was taught almost every subject by two teachers.The goal:to find common threads across disciplines to help students create a big picture that gives fresh meaning and context to their classwork and sparks motivation for leaning.
Working within state guidelines,each team makes its individual schedules and lesson plans,incorporating non-textbook literature,hands-on lab work and fields trips.If students are covering the Civil War in social studies,they're reading The Read Badge of Courage or some other period literature in English class.In science,they study the viruses and bacteria that caused many deaths in the war.
Team teaching isn't unusual.About 77percent middle schools now employ some form of it,says John Lounsbury,consulting editor for the National Middle School Association.But most schools use four-or five-person teams,which Gaul tried before considering two-person teams more effective.Gual supports the team concept by"looping"classes (跟班)so that the same two teachers stick with the same teens through seventh and eighth grades.Combining teams and looping creates an extremely strong bond between teacher and student.It also,says teacher Beth Ahlholm,"allows us to build an excellent relationship with parents."
Ahlholm and teammate Madelon Kelly are fully aware how many glazed looks they see in the classroom,but they know 72percent of their eighth-graders met Maine's reading standard last year--double the statewide average.Only 31percent met the Maths standard,still better than the state average(21percent).Their students also beat the state average in writing and science.And in 2006,Gual was one of 47schools in the state to see testing gains of at least 20percent in four of the previous five years,coinciding roughly with team teaching'arrival.
A Classroom with Context | |
Problems of the school | Being a farming town,it (149)achieved little in education before. |
(150)Further education is considered less important. | |
The community is relatively (151)closed rather than open to the outsiders. | |
Ways of solving the problems | The division of the classes is made and students are well (152)motivated. |
Individual schedules and lesson plans are (153)made/adopted/conducted by each team. | |
A strong (154)bond/tie/connection between teacher and student is established through combining teams and looping. | |
Signs of (155)success | 72percent of the eighth-graders (156)meeting/reaching Maine's reading standard |
(157)Tenpercent higher than the state average in Maths | |
The school beating the state average in writing and science | |
Four of the previous five years (158)seeing/witnessing at least 20percent test gains |
