They have more money, more funding and better resources and they don’t have the more challenging students we get in the state sector.‎ That was before I became a teacher-researcher in a two-year project led by my college, aiming to find the best way to support high-ability students. With funding from ‎ the London Schools Excellence Fund, we teamed up with some of the country’s top private schools, like Eton and St Paul’s, as well as a number of state schools, to find out how to bring the knowledge-rich learning that characterizes independent schools into the state sector.‎ Before the project, I hadn’t had much contact with people who had been educated there. But the first thing I found when I visited was that teachers are the same. In the independent sector, they have challenges too—just different ones.‎ After two years, our research project has produced a huge set of findings.‎ One of the most useful findings was the importance of independent learning habits outside the classroom. I realized that although I was always telling students that they needed to do four to five hours of private study a week, they didn’t have a clear idea of what this could look like beyond making notes. So I set them different activities including reading articles, doing activities and completing examination questions.‎ I started to put much more emphasis on activities outside the classroom, like researching topics beyond the syllabus(教学大纲) or discussing things in the news. And I praised anyone who asked questions in class, so we created a culture where students were proud to ask a question rather than seeing it as a way of flagging up the fact that they hadn’t understood something.‎ My research is beginning to have a real influence. My students now come to class and tell me what they want to know about. But they no longer expect me to do the research—they want to find out for themselves. At the end of the year I gave students a questionnaire on independent learning. One wrote, “Independent learning would limit the help I got from other students. It helps you to think for yourself.”‎ ‎4．What did the author say about independent school students before her research?‎ A．They were troublemakers.‎ B．They enjoyed excellent learning conditions.‎ C．They performed worse than state school students.‎ D．They faced the same challenges as state school students.‎ ‎5．Why did the author join the project?‎ A．To introduce good learning methods to state schools.‎ B．To exchange teaching ideas with other teachers.‎ C．To partner with other schools in education.‎ D．To find enough funds for state schools.‎ ‎6．What changes did the author make in her classes?‎ A．She focused on group learning. B．She worked out a different syllabus.‎ C．She encouraged independent learning. D．She carried out various activities in class.‎ ‎7．How is the author’s research going?‎ A．It has made a big difference.

D．It involves many more students.‎ ‎ C The University of Birmingham is the first excellent UK Russell Group university to announce that it will accept the "Gaokao" exam for high-flying Chinese students wishing to join its undergraduate courses in 2019. High school students who complete the "National Higher Education Entrance Examination", or Gaokao, with top grades will be able to apply for direct entry onto Birmingham degree programmes without first completing a foundation year which is a routine for the freshman.‎ Gaokao is usually taken by students in their last year of senior high school and, every year, each province in China sets the grades required to gain admission to its universities. It is usually held across China in early June. Students are tested in Chinese, Mathematics, a Foreign Language and social sciences or natural sciences.‎ University of Birmingham Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir David Eastwood said: "The University of Birmingham has been challenging and developing great minds for more than a century. We welcome people from around the globe to study at Birmingham and Chinese students form an integral part of our education and research community. We are further opening access to Birmighamˈs wealth of education opportunities for the brightest and most dedicated Chinese students by accepting this strict and important qualification. I look forward to welcoming these high-flying students to the University of Birmingham. "‎ Gaokao is increasingly accepted by universities in Australia, the USA, Canada and mainland Europe. Birmingham will only be considering high quality students who achieve a minimum 80% Gaokao score and meet additional academic and English language requirements.‎ Professor J on Frampton, Director of the University of Birminghamˈs China Institute said: "The University of Birmingham has a long history of educating students from China and one of our most famous graduates is Li Siguang-the founding father of Chinese geology. I am delighted that the University is now accepting the Gaokao. This gives the brightest and best Chinese students an opportunity to move straight into the first year of our undergraduate programmes and experience the benefits of studying at a global Top 100 university, such as Birmingham. "‎ ‎8．What do Chinese students have to do to enter the University of Birmingham before 2019?‎ A．Score over 80% of the universityˈs qualification examination.‎ B．Prepare Birmingham degree programmes.‎ C．Acquire the right to permanent residency.‎ D．Go through a foundation year.‎ ‎9．Who is the announcement intended for?‎ A．Chinese students.‎ B．All people living in the UK.‎ C．The students of the UK.‎ D．The foreign students in China.‎ ‎10．Which of the following best explains "integral" underlined in paragraph 3?‎ A．complete.

He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.‎ The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes, and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days, while others go to seed long before?‎ We’ve all known people who run out of steam before they reach life’s halfway mark. I’m not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can’t all get there. I’m talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.‎ Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.‎ The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things we can’t change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us—an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.‎ With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos(自我), whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.‎ Many of us equate(视……等同于) “commitment” with such “caring” occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence—whether they are driving a truck, or running a store—make the world better just by being the kind of ‎ people they are. They’ve learned life’s most valuable lesson.‎ ‎12．The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that ________.‎ A．loss of freedom stimulates one’s creativity B．age is not a barrier to achieving one’s goal C．misery inspires a man to fight against his fate D．disability cannot stop a man’s pursuit of success ‎13．What could be inferred from Paragraph 4？‎ A．Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.‎ B．Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.‎ C．Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.‎ D．Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.‎ ‎14．What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？‎ A．A tough man can tolerate suffering.‎ B．A wise man can live without self-pity.‎ C．A man should try to satisfy people around him.‎ D．A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.‎ ‎15．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage？‎ A．To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.‎ B．To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.‎ C．To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.‎ D．To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.‎ ‎ E ‎ If you’re feeling empty, you’re not alone. Many of us feel empty in different ways. For instance, you might feel empty because something is missing in your life. Or the emptiness might stem from slowly abandoning yourselves, not listening to your own hopes and desires. Abandoning yourselves can also spark anxiety, depression, guilt and shame, 16．. Here are several suggestions to help you out.‎ Acknowledge the emptiness. If you're experiencing emptiness that's more like a ‎ gaping hole, acknowledge it, and be gentle with yourself. 17． If this emptiness is because of a loved one's passing, get angry with yourself. In that case you learn to live life alongside that hole of missing that person.‎ Explore your feelings of emptiness. Scientists suggested exploring the below questions. We can do this while journaling, taking a walk or drinking a cup of tea.‎ ‎●Do I tell myself positive things?‎ ‎●What am I trying to prove or win?‎ ‎●18．‎ ‎●Am I blaming myself for things that are out of my control?‎ ‎19． Fight the urge to turn to the outside world for fulfillment. Instead of trying to fill the emptiness with drugs, alcohol, TV, computer games or anything else, look within, and spend time with yourself. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but the more you practice devoting time and energy to yourself and caring for yourself, the less present those empty feelings, will be.‎ ‎20．Whether you are experiencing difficult relationships, losses, or feeling a lack of purpose or mining, you are worthy of a fulfilling and meaningful life.‎ A．Explore your current feelings.‎ B．Spend with yourself every day.‎ C．How do you handle your emptiness?‎ D．Den t heat yourself up for feeling this way.‎ E. Have I been judging myself or comparing myself to others?‎ F. It's important to acknowledge and accept your feelings of emptiness.‎ G. Do you too much time on TV, computer games or anything else?‎ 二、完形填空（一共40小题，每小题1.5分，总计60分）‎ ‎ A The Value of Education I have just started my job as an English Language Assistant in the Parisian suburbs. I was 21 by how rich Paris really is. The 22 of the buildings and the large amount of luxurious(豪华的)monuments completely 23 the city's rich reputation. I was also very surprised at how 24 the suburbs are: in the UK, traditionally, the ‎ suburbs are the 25 part of a city，but here it is the complete opposite.‎ The schools that I 26 in are located just outside of Paris and are not as 27 as the ones in the centre of the city. However, the 28 here are so eager to learn my language.‎ For my first lesson I 29 some postcards and souvenirs to 30 my pupils what my hometown is like in the UK. They were so 31 by my postcard of my town's 32 and my souvenir of the Welsh dragon. For us in the UK, a postcard of a castle is not necessarily the most exciting thing but, for these pupils it 33 real-life magic and mystery. I realized that in their suburb there are no castles or famous monuments. All those things 34 to Paris.‎ One of the teachers told me that despite the 35 that these children live only four kilometers from Paris, some of them have never been there throughout their entire lives. I 36 a chance for them to discover another world.‎ I never 37 , until my job in France, just how 38 education really is.

I was 42 with that idea all over again when I heard the story of Mary Crowe.‎ Young Mary was washing her father’s overalls one day when the big thought 43 her.‎ In her mind she saw herself 44 from college in cap and gown, accepting her diploma, ready to 45 a career.‎ Since Mary came from a low-income family, her dream seemed out of 46 . There would never be enough money to send Mary to college. 47 , no member of her family had ever gone to college. But Mary 48 that thought. In secondary school she studied hard, and spoke 49 of her dream to teachers and friends. When her 50 day at school came, her principal (校长) called her into his office.‎ ‎“I have a(n) 51 for you,” he said.‎ It contained a scholarship to a nearby college. The power of a thought had 52 its first dividend (红利). But the scholarship could cover only part of her college 53 . Mary took every part-time job she could find.‎ Mary’s dream came true when she graduated from college. Then she took a course in insurance. When she 54 herself to a local insurance company for a job, she was 55 . She applied again. The answer was no. She kept going back until the manager 56 her.‎ Twenty-five years later Mary Crowe’s associates in that company 57 at a special dinner in her honour, recognizing her for her outstanding achievements as an ‎ insurance saleswoman.‎ ‎“Each of us is constantly in a state of becoming,” she said, giving her formula (方法) for 58 . “Through 59 and faith you can become what you think. Not that your life will be without problems, but along the way problems will be 60 .
