The research is in line with policies introduced in schools in England where children who go to class shoeless -following the steps of schools in Scandinavia in an effort to improve their academic standards and behavior.‎ ‎ The study is based on observing and studying tens of thousands of children in over 100 schools in around 25 countries over the last ten years. For decades children in northern Europe have learned with their shoes off because they are left at the school door arrival due to snow, ice or mud.‎ ‎ And now academics are calling on teachers in England to apply similar "shoeless" policies to give children the best possible chance of performing in their exams. Experts believe having children with no shoes in the classroom improves their learning because it makes them "feel at home" and more relaxed when learning.‎ Professor Stephen Heppell, who leads the research at Bournemouth University, said: "Children are much more willing to sit on the floor and relax if they have no shoes on. The last place a child would sit to read is an upright chair and we've found that 95 percent of them actually don't read on a chair at home. When they go on holidays they read lying down. Having conditions in the classroom that are like those at home means that more boys are reading in the classroom. Children also arrive earlier and leave later, which translates into half an hour of extra learning a day on average.”‎ Wearing no shoes also means the cleaning bill decreased by 27 percent and schools need to spend less money on furniture because they don't need to buy a chair and a table for every child as they can sit on the floor.【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】24.

Stress relief is one of the major reasons why these games are so popular. Mixed with excitement, challenges and fear of the unknown, the game allows people to play different roles and experience another life for a short time. ‎ Room escape has become popular in China, attracting people from all walks of life. The games often require group thinking, making it a good alternative for company team-building activities. ‎ Ye Kai works for a film production company. He and colleagues recently took on a room escape game called "Assassin", and only made it out "with the help of everyone". ‎ ‎"The game gave me a strong sense of involvement and teamwork," Ye said. "I will definitely come back and try other themes." ‎ In Shanghai alone, more than 200 locations offer these adventures. Across the country thousands of such escape rooms with various themes have sprung up. ‎ But escape games are not without their critics. According to a report, a venue(场馆) opened in a basement in a residential area in Shanghai's Jingan district recently, attracting a large number of devotees (热爱者) to the area. As the door to the community is now constantly open, some ‎ residents have been left annoyed. "How can our safety be guaranteed if they allow these random strangers into our community freely?" one of the residents complained.‎ ‎"We are thinking about employing security guards at the entrance to check on our customers," the game developer said. "We want people to have fun. It was never our intention to disturb the neighborhood." ‎ ‎28. Room escape games are popular mainly because they _____.‎ ‎ A. require teamwork B. are exciting and challenging ‎ C. help release pressure D. must be finished in a fixed time ‎29. To win the game, people are required to ______.‎ ‎ A. manage it independently ‎ ‎ B. cooperate with each other ‎ C. solve puzzles and find clues alone ‎ D. have a strong sense of direction ‎30. We can infer from Paragraph 7 that some residents ______.‎ ‎ A. are also fond of the games B. have left the community C. have great conflicts with the devotees D. are concerned about the safety of their community ‎31. What is the best title of the passage?‎ ‎ A. Experience another life ‎ ‎ B. How to escape from reality C. Games offer an escape from stress D. An alternative team-building activity D New research shows that kids from low-income families may be falling behind their peers because an important part of their brains is underdeveloped.‎ Researchers from MIT’s McGovern Institute for Brain Research compared the brains of 12-and 13-year-olds from rich families with the brains of their peers from lower-income families. They found that one particular area of the brain—the neocortex(新皮质),which plays a key role in ‎ memory and learning ability—is thinner in children from lower-income households.‎ This is a crucial part of the brain for young students, who are often tested based on their ability to recall large chunks of information. Children who had a thinner neocortex performed poorly on standardized tests, researchers found. More than 90% of high-income students scored above average on a statewide math and English/Language Arts standardized test, compared with less than 60% of low-income students. Differences in cortical(脑皮层) thickness could account for almost half of the income-achievement gap in this sample, researchers wrote.‎ ‎“Just as you would expect, there’s a real cost not living in a supportive environment. We can see it not only in test scores, in educational attainment, but within the brains of these children,”says psychological scientist John Gabrieli, a professor of brain and cognitive sciences at MIT and one of the study’s authors.‎ Since a 2011 study published by Stanford University professor Sean Reardon found that the gap between standardized test scores of high-income and low-income students has grown by about 40% since the 1960s, there’s been a lot of research aimed at finding links between income and achievement, rather than race alone. The MIT study found low-income children were equally likely to have a thinner neocortex, no matter their races.‎ Gabrieli and his co-authors can’t say exactly why poor children’s brains develop differently because there are too many possibilities to count. Their findings do, however, underline the importance of early intervention(干预) to ensure that low-income kids get the tools they need to succeed.‎ ‎32．What’s the function of the first paragraph?‎ A. To list some findings. B. To give some advice.‎ C. To do some comparisons. D. To show the main idea of the text.‎ ‎33．What does the underlined word “crucial” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Special. B. Important. C. Separate. D. Unknown.‎ ‎34．What John Gabrieli says in Paragraph 4 mainly shows the importance of 　　　.‎ A. cognitive ability B. educational attainment C. having developed brains D. living in supportive surroundings ‎35．What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Wealthy parents do better in raising children.‎ B. Differences exist between poor children and rich ones.‎ C. Poor children study harder due to their financial conditions.‎ D. Poor children have thinner neocortex than their wealthy peers.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分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。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Why is setting goals important? ___36．_ Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen. Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals. ‎ By setting goals you are taking control of your life. It's like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which can be found on a map. She can drive straight there surely without any wasted time of wrong turns. ___37． She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be?‎ Winners in life set goals and follow them through. They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. __38． Goals aren't difficult to set and they aren't difficult to reach. ‎ ‎___39．__ You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life. ‎ Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. 40．. Like a contract(合同) with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.‎ A．Because everybody should have a goal in his mind ‎ B．Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. ‎ C．The other driver has no goal, or destination or map. ‎ D．It's difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map. ‎ E．It's up to you to find out what your goals really are.‎ F．Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life. ‎ G .
