PISA stands for the Programme for International Student Assessment,sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD).PISA 2015 is the sixth PISA study that has been conducted since 2000 and involves more than 70 participating countries. PISA has the following characteristics: ·It is the world’s largest international survey in education. ·It surveys students aged about 15 years. ·It assesses students’ preparedness for adult life. Undertaking PISA is important because the results of the test can be used: ·to indicate how well prepared students in a country/economy are for learning once they leave school; ·to identify areas for improvement over time by schools,education systems,and governments; ·to allow a comparison of student performance and the learning environment between different countries. 1.2.Components of PISA 2015 ·1.2.1.Cognitive test 42 students from each school will be randomly sampled to complete a 2-hour computer-based test consisting of questions in science,mathematics,reading,and Collaborative Problem-solving. ·1.2.2.Questionnaires These students will also be asked to complete a 30-minute Student Questionnaire on the computer either directly after the test sections or at a later time. ·1.2.3.Financial Literacy assessment After the cognitive test and questionnaires,a sub-sample of 10-11 students will take a computer-based Financial Literacy(FL) assessment.The 65-minute Financial Literacy assessment tests students’ knowledge of personal finances and their ability to apply it to their financial problems. 语篇解读 本文是一篇应用文,主要介绍了由经济合作与发展组织(OECD)赞助的一项“国际学生评估项目(PISA)”的特点、构成和用途。 56.According to the manual,each participating student of PISA should .

In 1978,Melone,the President of Gavilan College in Gilroy,read an article in a newspaper which was about a small town in France.The town hosted a garlic festival every year and regarded itself as the “Garlic Capital of the World”.He doubted that Gilroy’s garlic production and processing were far greater.In fact,Christopher Ranch was then the largest shipper of garlic in the world. So Melone set about trying to convince Christopher Ranch’s owner Don Christopher,to host a garlic festival of their own.At first,the idea seemed crazy.Outside of Italian families,garlic at the time was considered an esoteric material.It wasn’t something thought to be normal and it wasn’t something you generally shared in polite company. But Melone had a passion for Gilroy and garlic.He decided to stick to his idea.He and Christopher hired a local cook,Val Filice,to prepare a meal with a few garlicky dishes.They invited local media and food writers as well.The meal was a success,and the city leaders agreed to support them. The first Gilroy Garlic Festival was held at Bloomfield Ranch in 1979.Rudy Melone served as the president; Don Christopher supplied all the garlic from his; and Val Filice was the head chef.They got about 50 community volunteers to help them and decided to give all the profits back to the community.Festival organizers weren’t sure at first if anyone would come,but were quickly shocked by the number of visitors.Despite all the chaos,the first Gilroy Garlic Festival served over 15,000 guests and produced $19,000 for the local community. To date,the Gilroy Garlic Festival has given the city of Gilroy a sense of true community pride as well as worldwide recognition.Not bad for one man’s crazy idea! 语篇解读 本文是一篇故事类阅读。本文介绍了基罗尔大蒜节的历史,举行“大蒜节”最初的想法,以及第一次“大蒜节”的具体情况,最后介绍了“大蒜节”给社区带来的好处。 58.What does the underlined word “esoteric” in Paragraph 3 mean? A.Very expensive. B.Very strange. C.Very ordinary. D.Very popular. 答案 B 解析 词义猜测题。第三段最后一句“It wasn’t something thought to be normal and it wasn’t something you generally shared in polite company.”是对前一句的进一步解释,大蒜并不是一种寻常食物,也不是能与别人分享的东西。“不正常,不能分享”,所以说明大蒜是奇怪的东西。故B选项正确。 59.What can we infer about the first Gilroy Garlic Festival? A.Its purpose was to attract city leaders. B.Its organizers were certain that no one would come. C.It benefited the local community a lot. D.It made Gilroy become the garlic capital of the world. 答案 C 解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Despite all the chaos,the first Gilroy Garlic Festival served over 15,000 guests and produced $19,000 for the local community.”可知,尽管有点混乱,第一次大蒜节为超过15 000名客人服务并给当地社区带来了19 000美元的收益,所以说大蒜节使当地社区受益颇多。故C选项正确。 60.What is the main idea of the passage? A.Spreading the food culture. B.Praising a man’s crazy idea. C.Showing the benefits of eating garlic. D.Introducing the history of Gilroy Garlic Festival. 答案 D 解析 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文从举行“大蒜节”的最初的想法、第一次“大蒜节”的具体情况以及“大蒜节”给社区带来的好处这几个方面介绍了“大蒜节”的历史。故D选项正确。 C We often seek food after focused mental activity,like preparing for an exam.Researchers guess that too much thinking consumes a lot of energy from the brain.So the brain,sensing that it may soon require more calories to keep going,apparently leads to bodily hunger,and even though there has been little physical movement,we eat. The researchers note that tiring activity both increases the amount of blood sugar and lactate(乳酸盐) circulating in the blood and increases blood flow to the head. Because the brain uses sugar and lactate as fuel,researchers wondered if the increased flow of fuel-rich blood during exercise could feed a worn-out brain and reduce the urge to overeat. Thirty-eight healthy college students were invited to determine their fitness and metabolic(新陈代谢) rates and to report what their favorite pizza was.Afterward,they sat quietly for 35 minutes before being given as much of their favorite pizza as they wanted.At a later date,the volunteers returned and spent 20 minutes making selections from college and graduate-school entrance exams. Next,half the students sat quietly for 15 minutes,before being given pizza.The rest of the volunteers spent those 15 minutes doing intervals on a treadmill(跑步机) two minutes of hard running followed by about one minute of walking,repeated five times.These students were then allowed to gorge on pizza,too.But by and large,they did not overeat. When the researchers factored in(将……作为因素考虑) the calories burnt on running,they determined that those students actually consumed 200 fewer total calories after their brain workouts than the resting students. The researchers do not know if the runners consumed extra calories at dinner.They also cannot tell whether other types of exercise would have the same effect as running,although the researchers say they suspect that if an activity causes someone to break into a sweat,it should also increase blood sugar and lactate,feeding the brain and weakening hungers call. 语篇解读 本文为说明文。研究人员猜测,过多的思考会消耗大脑的大量能量,这显然会导致身体饥饿。由于大脑使用糖和乳酸盐作为燃料,研究人员想知道,在运动过程中增加的富含燃料的血液流量,是否能让疲惫的大脑得到补充,并减少暴饮暴食的冲动。文章介绍了这项研究。 61.What do we learn from the first paragraph? A.We eat for more physical movements. B.A busy brain can make one hungry. C.Energy from the brain can’t be used up. D.An exam results in caloric consumption most. 答案 B 解析 细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句(研究人员猜测,过多的思考会消耗大脑的大量能量。因此,大脑感觉到它可能很快就需要更多的卡路里来维持运转,显然会导致身体饥饿)可知,忙碌的大脑会让人感到饥饿。故B选项正确。 62.What can a physical movement do? A.Increase blood flow. B.Increase the amount of blood sugar. C.Urge one to eat more. D.Make the brain tired. 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段内容(研究人员指出,疲劳的活动不仅会增加血液中循环的血糖和乳酸的含量,还会增加流向头部的血液流量)可知,身体运动能增加血液流动。故A选项正确。 63.What does the underlined phrase “gorge on” in Paragraph 5 mean? A.Eat. B.Purchase. C.Taste. D.Obtain. 答案 A 解析 词义猜测题。根据本段第一句“Next,half the students sat quietly for 15 minutes,before being given pizza.”及画线词句中的too可知,这些学生也可以吃比萨。根据画线词所在句后的“But by and large,they did not overeat.(总的来说,他们没有吃得太多)”也可得知,画线词意为“吃”。故A选项正确。 64.What do the researchers want to know from the study? A.Whether brain uses sugar and lactate as fuel. B.Whether brain can be tired during exercise. C.Whether exercise can reduce eating desire. D.Whether exercise increases blood sugar. 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段内容(由于大脑使用糖和乳酸作为燃料,研究人员想知道,在运动过程中增加的富含燃料的血液流量,是否能让疲惫的大脑得到补充,并减少暴饮暴食的冲动)可知,研究人员想从这项研究中知道,运动是否能降低食欲。故C选项正确。 D Kathie,I remember the first day when I met you.I remember the look on your face as you rushed out from your dorm and slammed directly into me.You knocked me over,both metaphorically(比喻地) and physically.You were dressed in a sports bra and tight little shorts and I was suddenly feeling a little bitter in that I was picking your roommate up for dinner,not you. No,it can’t start that way. Who starts a speech with a memory about what bra someone was wearing?How about this? I remember staring at the projector image of stars in Astronomy and thinking only of your eyes.I only signed up for Astronomy because you said you were taking it.You hadn’t said it to me,of course,but to one of your girlfriends.I was behind you in the sandwich line at the student center and I heard you ask that redhead girl—Jessica Randolph,I think her name was.Well,it’s Johnson,now;she’s married with a baby on the way.I heard you ask Jessica if she thought the professor would talk about the possibility of aliens.That was all it took.I signed up for Astronomy almost immediately. That sounds like I’m a huge stalker(跟踪狂).I won’t share that story.No one wants to hear about aliens and about the stars in your eyes.No one wants to hear about Jessica Johnson.Jessica and her husband will be there today.She’ll cry.I’m certain that she’ll cry.A lot of people will,I’d assume. Will I? I can’t think about that.I don’t want to mess things up in front of everyone.All of our family and friends will be there,watching,and I’ve never been good at public speaking. I remember sitting next to you on the couch while I waited for your roommate to get ready for dinner.She took so long to do her hair and makeup.It was intentional,I think.She thought it was classy to make me wait.You never did. Anyway,I was waiting for your roommate to be ready for our date.All I wanted to do was put my hand over yours as you changed the channels.Something funny would happen on the television and you’d laugh so hard that you’d snort.I loved you even then,I think. I can’t talk about that.People will think I’m a cheat.I have never cheated on you.I was set up with your roommate on a blind date.It was you,you,always you from the moment I saw you until today.I broke up with her that night,I remember.We never even made it out of the parking lot.I don’t know what made me do it;I just knew that whenever I closed my eyes I couldn’t picture anything but your face. Today is so important,so critical.I can’t mess up.Not when you’ll be there,so peaceful and lovely. Another,then. What about the day I proposed?I had planned it out so carefully but nothing went right.The flower order was wrong.I burned my new shirt with the iron.The sweater I had ordered for your stupid dog—the one that read,“Will you marry my daddy?”—arrived in the mail just that morning and was too small.I squeezed him into it anyway,and it somehow made his already giant head look even bigger.Maybe that’s why you couldn’t stop laughing when you saw him.You were laughing—loudly—your dress half on and your nails half painted.I had come to get you for our date too early.I couldn’t help it.I was sweating through my burnt shirt and holding wilted flowers,kneeling like a fool.You didn’t say yes or no,but the stars in your eyes were confirmation. I can share that.I’ve shared it a hundred times before.Everyone wanted to know the engagement story,which led us to the altar(圣坛). The altar. I stood up there and stammered(口吃) through the speech I had prepared for you—through the promise I had written for you.It was nowhere near as hard as this.My vows(誓言),then,included that eternal drivel,for better or for worse.Till death do us part. How was I to know? How was I to know there was another speech to write,another vow to make? What story do I share,standing before our friends and family—before you?What goodbye can I give that honors your memory?I am selfish with my memories of you.I don’t want to share them. You are among the stars,now—scattered among the universe that first led me to you.The universe called you home too soon,and I will let the universe praise you highly. I don’t need a memory to say goodbye.I only need to remember the vow I made then,and the vow I’ll make now. I’ll see you again. 语篇解读 本文是一篇悼词。作者在妻子的葬礼上用深情的语言陈述了对妻子点滴往事的回忆,表达了其对妻子深深的爱。 65.What can be inferred about Jessica Johnson? A.She was the author’s ex-girlfriend. B.She is becoming a mother very soon. C.She was unpopular with people at college. D.She is attending Kathie’s wedding ceremony. 答案 B 解析 推理判断题。根据第四段第五句“...she’s married with a baby on the way.”可推断出, Jessica Johnson很快就会成为一位母亲。 66.Why does the author say that people will think of him as a cheat? A.Because he shifted his love to another woman. B.Because he fell in love with Kathie at the first sight. C.Because he got to know his ex-girlfriend through a blind date. D.Because he put his hand over Kathie’s when waiting for her roommate. 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。根据第十段第三至五句“I have never cheated on you.I was set up with your roommate on a blind date.It was you,you,always you from the moment I saw you until today.”可知,因为大家都认为作者喜欢的是新娘的室友,而结婚的对象却是新娘,所以作者认为别人会觉得他是骗子。 67.What can be inferred from the underlined part “your dress half on and your nails half painted”? A.Kathie cared little about her appearance. B.The author arrived early to please Kathie. C.Kathie was too busy with the dog to wear the makeup.

A common misconception that people have about going on vacation is that they need to get the most out of their trip.They can research 101 places to visit at their destination and then pack 98 of those suggestions in their itinerary(旅行计划).While trying to make the most of their time,people overpack their schedule and engage in business which results in more stress and less rest. Today,technology and social media have over-promoted and normalized sharing every experience people have—especially while they are on vacation. The saying,“If you didn’t post it,did it really happen?”,drives people to document and share everything.Also they may spend more time taking the perfect pictures at every stop than they planned when actually participating in the activity.They end up sacrificing the quality of the trip for the quantity of the posts.What’s more,when during their vacation they’re checking and responding to work emails or completing tasks,they’re ruining their vacation because they aren’t fully present! So,remember,vacation is a chance to unwind and you should spend it in the right way.You shouldn’t feel pressured with planning, and trying to create a perfect vacation is the first key to having fun and being refreshed.Take your time and work to be completely present during every experience.It’s a great idea to enjoy the recommended hot spots,attractions,restaurants and activities,but accept the fact that there will always be more to see and do than you have time for—don’t try to do it all.Removing the determination that you have to do it all will leave you feeling refreshed. To better enjoy your vacation time,you’d better give yourself one day to recover before returning to work after a vacation.This allows your body and mind to adjust to being back home and getting back into your work routine.Additionally,when you want to go on vacation to recharge again,don’t overcrowd your schedule with late night and early morning activities.Make sure you rest and get plenty of sleep.After all,it’s okay to schedule a lazy day during your vacation.However,don’t overdo it with the sleep and relaxation.

Online education has also got a mention in this year’s Central Government Work Report,which Premier Li Keqiang delivered to the annual National People’s Congress.We can thus conclude that online education not only has huge economic potential,but it also enjoys government support. Online education is not without problems,though.Some online “educators” are extremely popular,yet they hardly teach students anything useful.Worse,there is hardly any supervision of online education agencies.A China Central TV report on Nov.17 said quite a high percentage of such agencies are being operated without the education bureaus’ knowledge. 写作内容 1.用约30个单词写出上文概要; 2.用约120个单词阐述网络课程流行的原因以及你对网络课程健康发展的建议。 写作要求 1.写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句; 2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称; 3.不必写标题。 评分标准 内容完整,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当。 参考范文 With the availability of rich educational resources,online education is becoming increasingly popular,bringing online teachers and agencies a large fortune.However,online education has caused some problems worth paying attention to. There are many reasons for its popularity.Nowadays,Chinese parents attach great importance to education,willing to pay for extra courses to ensure their children’s academic success.Besides,it is convenient for students to get access to online courses and follow their own pace of study.Thus online education also helps people save time and money. From my point of view,online education is a wise option,but essential measures should be taken to guarantee its healthy development.Education authorities should strictly regulate the national standards.Moreover,online teachers and agencies are expected to offer quality education.Above all,students should realize,no matter how useful online education is,it cannot completely replace school education.查看更多
