Road and toll B For many years the school system in Finland has been very successful. In the PISA survey, which compares reading, math and science knowledge of 15-year-olds around the world, Finland is not only the top European country but also competes with Asian giants like Shanghai, Singapore and South Korea. But what makes the educational system in this small country so different from others in the western world?‎ Until the 1960s Finland’s school system had been influenced largely by its neighbor, the Soviet Union. Most students left school after six years; some went on to private school. Only the wealthy ones got a better education. In the middle of the 1960s the Finnish government saw the need to change and modernize their education system if they wanted to be internationally competitive. Lawmakers made a simple decision: a basic school for all the 7- to 16-year-olds. Compulsory education begins at 7. The government makes it possible for all children to attend preschool as well.‎ Most of Finland’s schools get their money from the government. The people who are in charge of the education system, from teachers to officials are trained teachers, not politicians like in other countries.‎ Teachers work with their pupils in school as much as possible. When teachers are not with the pupils, they spend a lot of time in schools working on the curriculum and new projects. Schools in Finland are small, at least for international standards. So teachers know every pupil in their school and try everything to succeed with their pupils. That is why dropout rates are low compared to other countries. In contrast to other nations, teachers in Finland are highly respected. Finland selects its teachers very carefully: only talented students go on to a university and receive a master’s degree in ‎ 15‎ 第页 education. Finland only takes the best to educate its youth.‎ All Finnish children, whether they come from the city or the country, whether from a rich or poor family, have the same chances in education. There are not so many differences between the wealthy and poor, as in America or other western European countries. Education experts say that there is very little difference between very good and the worst students. Two thirds of Finnish pupils move on to higher education, the highest rate in the European Union.‎ ‎24. What did the Finland government do in the middle of the 1960s?‎ A. They changed the school system. B. They lengthened preschool education.‎ C. They encouraged students to go to private school.‎ D. They learned modern education from neighboring countries.‎ ‎25. The teachers in Finland ____.‎ A. receive special training quite often B. devote lots of time to their work.‎ C. try their best to help the dropouts D. pay more attention to talented students.‎ ‎26. We can learn from the text that ____.‎ ‎ A. the children in Finland are educated equally B. the children in Finland attend preschool at the age of six C. the school system in Finland is better than that in ‎Singapore D. the school equipment in Finland doesn’t meet international standards ‎27. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. What Differences European Schools Have ‎ B. What Good Schools Provide Students with ‎ C. Why Finland’s School System Is Successful D. Why Finland’s School System Has Changed C Dear Max,‎ ‎　　Your mother and I don't yet have the words to describe the hope you give us for the future.… We believe all lives have equal value, and that includes the many more people who will live in future generations than live today. Our society has an obligation to invest now to improve the lives of all those coming into this world, not just those already here.‎ ‎　　Our hopes for your generation focus on two ideas: advancing human potential and promoting equality.‎ 15‎ 第页 ‎　 Today your mother and I are committing to spend our lives doing our small part to help solve these challenges. I will continue to serve as Facebook's CEO for many, many years to come, but these issues are too important to wait until you or we are older to begin this work. By starting at a young age, we hope to see compounding benefits throughout our lives.‎ ‎　　As you begin the next generation of the Chan Zuckerberg family, we also begin the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to join people across the world to advance human potential and promote equality for all children in the next generation. Our initial areas of focus will be personalized learning, curing disease, connecting people and building strong communities. Over short periods of five or ten years, it may not seem like we’re making much of a difference. But over the long term, seeds planted now will grow, and one day, you or your children will see what we can only imagine.‎ ‎　 We will give 99% of our Facebook shares -- currently about $45 billion -- during our lives to advance this mission. We know this is a small contribution compared to all the resources and talents of those already working on these issues. But we want to do what we can, working alongside many others.‎ ‎28. From the passage we can learn that the author is Max’s ____.‎ A. mother B. father C. brother D. grandparent ‎29. Planted seeds referred in the 4th paragraph are to explain that ____.‎ A. it is better doing something to improve the world than waiting B. harvest can be expected after sowing C. it make little difference to help solve the challenges D. it takes time to show their effort works ‎30.

Since these digital products are so common, is time running out for the 500-year-old watch? According to some consumers, the answer is yes. New Jersey teenager Charlie 15‎ 第页 ‎ Wollman says a watch is “an extra piece of equipment with no necessary function.” Many young adults think so and use their smart phones to tell time. It is said that fewer young people wear watches today than ten years ago. As a result, some people say that the watch industry is at a crossroads.‎ ‎ However, watchmakers optimistically say that watches redeem popularity when consumers reach their 20s and 30s. By then, they are willing to spend money on a quality watch that doesn’t just keep good time. Fifty years ago, watchmakers took pride in their products’ accuracy. But in recent years, the watch industry has changed itself into an accessory business. And today, the image a watch communicates has become more important than the time it tells. ‎ ‎“Complications” — features that go beyond simple timekeeping — are an important part of a watch’s image. Today’s watches offer lots of features that meet almost any personality. These features include compasses, USB drivers, and even other functions that measure the effectiveness of golf swings!‎ ‎ Creativity also plays a key role in designing today’s watches. For example, Japanese watchmaker Tokyoflash makes watches that don’t even look like watches. The company’s popular Shinshoku model uses different color lights to tell time. It looks more like a fashionable bracelet than a watch.‎ ‎ Whether a watch communicates fashion sense, creative talent of a love sports, consumers want their watches to stand out. Nowadays, everyone has the same kind of gadget in their bags, so people want to make a statement with what’ s on their wrists. Will this interest in wrist fashion last? Only time will tell!‎ ‎32. What can we know from the first paragraph?‎ A. As most people see, watches are out of fashion. ‎ B. The watch industry will close down sooner or later.‎ C. Some people feel that watches have been of no use. ‎ D. There are so many choices of watches for teenagers today. ‎ ‎33. The underlined word “redeem” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by____.‎ A. enlarge B. regain C. change D. win ‎34. Japanese watchmaker Tokyoflash is mentioned in Paragraph 4 to ____.‎ A. tell that today’s watches need more imagination ‎ B. show why Shinshoku watches are popular ‎ C. advertise Shinshoku watches made by Tokyoflash ‎ D. make a comparison between watches and bracelets ‎35. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?‎ A. Japanese Watches Stand Out B. Watches Tell More Than Time 15‎ 第页 C. Watch Industry Is in a Bad Situation D. Watches Are Becoming Less Popular 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ For many people, history classes are seen as no more than requirements for getting degrees in chemistry, biology, business, marketing, etc. 36 Below are a few reasons why it’s crucial that today’s people continue to learn about the past.‎ ‎ Understanding where people come from plays a key role in understanding.‎ ‎ Who they are 37 For this reason, it’s extremely important to learn history in order to understand why people are the way that they are.‎ Through history classes, you can experience a shift in the way you think. 38 It’s important to developing minds to be able to consider problems from different angles. Finally, this shift can improve your ability to analyze and understand situations, to make educated decisions and to learn how to weigh the consequences related to each choice before you.‎ ‎39 The idea that history repeats itself is rooted in truth. From was to fashion to political trends, historians are often able to make prediction about the future based upon the past. By having a deep understanding of what happened in the past, today’s people can better prepare for brighter futures by making the right decisions----instead of repeating old mistakes.‎ ‎ Many people may not believe that a degree in history can lead to a well-paying job. In fact, students who graduate with degrees in history can become lawyers, business owners, think tank(智囊团) members, educators, leaders in historical organizations, writers and so on. 40 ‎ A. Whichever you take, it can provide a comfortable life B. Learning about history can change how you think ‎ C. That means you look at things from a new point of view D. Learning from the past prevents future mistakes E. The key to enjoying the study of history is to find classes that interest you F. But the truth is that studying history is a wonderful way to prepare for a successful future G.
