A
Zhong Kaitong, a fourth-grader from Guangzhou, enjoyed a fun vacation this summer. Instead of attending English or math training courses, she played badminton and basketball most of the time.
A new guideline (指导方针) introduced by central authorities (中央政府) on July 24 helped Zhong enjoy some free time during the summer. Aiming to ease (减少) the schoolwork burden (负担) on primary and junior high school students, the guideline calls for reducing homework, improving the quality of education and regulating (规范) after-class activities,
According to the guideline, children below the third grade will not have homework anymore. It should take no more than 90 minutes for junior high school students to finish their homework.
Off-campus tutoring institutions (校外培训机构) are not allowed to offer overseas education courses or advanced (超前的) teaching. No subject-based (基于学科的) training will be allowed on weekends, national holidays or during winter and summer vacations.
More than 75 percent of children in Chinese cities from grades 1 to 12 are taking private (私人的) tutoring courses, Global Times reported.
“Parents are worried that if their children start behind, they will stay behind. Some training institutions have taken advantage of (利用) parents’ anxieties (焦虑) to make money,” said Chen Xianzhe, a professor at South China Normal University. “The guideline is meant to calm (安抚) the anxieties of parents and society as a whole.”
“But this does not mean the tutoring courses will completely disappear, since exams still exist (存在),” said Chu Zhaohui, a senior researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences. One-on-one or one-on-two tutoring might see a rise due to this need.
“Therefore, schools should improve their education quality, take the main responsibility for students’ education and not push them into tutoring courses,” Chu added.

A. He supports the guideline.
B. He thinks the guideline is useless.
C. He is against the guideline.
D. We can’t tell from the story.
25. Chu Zhaohui might agree that _____.
A. the guideline will stop off-campus tutoring courses

Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history Many people would think of Confucius(孔子), whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2, 000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution(贡献) to the education today.
Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.

He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.”

It's three thirty in the afternoon at Raynham Primary School in London. Students are ready for their after-school math lesson. Thousands of kilometers away, their math tutors are also arriving for class. Each pupil gets an online tutor. The students work on their computer and wear a earphone to talk to their tutor.
Their classroom teacher, Altus, says he has seen an improvement in results. Nine-year-old Samia says she enjoys the online lessons. She says, "It helps me because sometimes when we're doing it in class, I don't hear the teacher very much and I don't understand, but online tutoring is better." Tom Hooper started the company. It offers the online tutoring. The company is called Bright Spark Education.
Children today feel very confident online, so they enjoy their learning. Online tutoring costs between twenty and twenty-five dollars an hour. An online tutor is about half the cost of traditional face-to-face coaching.
Bright Spark Education says the online tutoring is used only as an addition (附加物) to the regular teaching. The company says its service doesn't threaten(威胁) the teachers' jobs in Britain.
Some parents say they are pleased with the results. But some students still hate math. Even with the latest technology to teach it, math is still not everyone's favorite subject.

Can you write the Chinese characters “ganga” (embarrassment) correctly Do you know how to write characters like “gala” (the corner of walls) If you can’t, you are not alone. “Now most people are typing into computers instead of writing on paper. We type Chinese characters mainly according to their pronunciation. The result is to recognize characters without remembering how to write them. China Youth Daily did a survey of 2,517 people, in which 90 percent said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.
Compared to adults, teenagers are better at writing Chinese characters because they spend more time learning and practicing at school. However, the influence of digital (数字的) technology cannot be left out, according to He Yu, head of a research team for Chinese teaching.
“Many students are obsessed with digital tools such as mobile phones and computers, they spent too much time on these tools. As a result, too much use of the tools will make students too lazy to think and write.” he said. Such worries have brought about a popular TV show titled Chinese Spelling Hero, which pays attention to Chinese character writing among teenagers.
In April, the Ministry of Education called for better calligraphy (书法) education in schools. Organizations like the China Calligraphy Association are also working to train more teachers in calligraphy. Interestingly, calligraphy teachers can’t always avoid the influence of modern technology. Shen Bin is a calligraphy teacher at a primary school in Beijing. She said that it’s common for teachers like her to forget certain words. “The calligraphy class is also a good chance for me to remember how to write.” she said.

“Parents are worried that if their children start behind, they will stay behind. Some training institutions have taken advantage of (利用) parents’ anxieties (焦虑) to make money,” said Chen Xianzhe, a professor at South China Normal University. “The guideline is meant to calm (安抚) the anxieties of parents and society as a whole.”
“But this does not mean the tutoring courses will completely disappear, since exams still exist (存在),” said Chu Zhaohui, a senior researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences. One-on-one or one-on-two tutoring might see a rise due to this need.
“Therefore, schools should improve their education quality, take the main responsibility for students’ education and not push them into tutoring courses,” Chu added.

Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history Many people would think of Confucius(孔子), whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2, 000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution(贡献) to the education today.
Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.
Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3, 000 students in his lifetime.
Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.”
He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.”
Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said.

【解析】短文主要介绍了孔子，他不仅是一位伟大的老师，也是一位著名的思想家，他对世界和社会有着睿智的思考。他最重要的教导是关于善良和礼貌。一个人应该严格要求自己，但善待他人。
26．细节理解题，根据“Although he lived over 2, 000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution(贡献) to the education today. ”可知今天我们仍然记得孔子，主要是因为他在教育方面有睿智的思想和伟大的观点。故选A。
27．细节理解题，根据“He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.”可知，他通过拜访很多有名的老师学习到了音乐、历史、诗歌和运动，故选D。
28．词义猜测题，根据“but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn.”可知，孔子认为每个人都应该上学．推出那个时候只有来自富有家庭的孩子可以上学，所以下划线单词的意思是“富有的”。故选C。
29．细节理解题，根据“His father died when he was only 3.”和“As a child, he had to work to help his mother”可知他三岁的时候他爸爸就去世了，作为一个小孩，他不得不工作来帮他的妈妈，所以③在①的前面，故排除C项。根据“Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history.”可知后来他成为一名老师并开办了中国历史上第一家公学。所以④在③和①后面，故排除B、D项。根据“He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime”可知他一生中有3000名学生，②应该是在最后，故A项符合题意。故选A。
30．推理判断题，根据“He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned.”可知，孔子认为每个人都有一些值得被学习的东西，而不是没有人有值得被学习的东西。

It's three thirty in the afternoon at Raynham Primary School in London. Students are ready for their after-school math lesson. Thousands of kilometers away, their math tutors are also arriving for class. Each pupil gets an online tutor. The students work on their computer and wear a earphone to talk to their tutor.

Can you write the Chinese characters “ganga” (embarrassment) correctly Do you know how to write characters like “gala” (the corner of walls) If you can’t, you are not alone. “Now most people are typing into computers instead of writing on paper. We type Chinese characters mainly according to their pronunciation. The result is to recognize characters without remembering how to write them. China Youth Daily did a survey of 2,517 people, in which 90 percent said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.
Compared to adults, teenagers are better at writing Chinese characters because they spend more time learning and practicing at school. However, the influence of digital (数字的) technology cannot be left out, according to He Yu, head of a research team for Chinese teaching.
“Many students are obsessed with digital tools such as mobile phones and computers, they spent too much time on these tools. As a result, too much use of the tools will make students too lazy to think and write.” he said. Such worries have brought about a popular TV show titled Chinese Spelling Hero, which pays attention to Chinese character writing among teenagers.
In April, the Ministry of Education called for better calligraphy (书法) education in schools. Organizations like the China Calligraphy Association are also working to train more teachers in calligraphy. Interestingly, calligraphy teachers can’t always avoid the influence of modern technology. Shen Bin is a calligraphy teacher at a primary school in Beijing. She said that it’s common for teachers like her to forget certain words. “The calligraphy class is also a good chance for me to remember how to write.” she said.

Dear students,
As you know, safety is the most important thing in our lives. In my opinion, following these safety rules can make us live in peace.
Firstly, we mustn’t bring restricted knives or things to our school because these things may cause serious problems. Secondly, we should be friendly to others so fighting is strongly banned. And, it is necessary for us to pay attention to the traffic on our way to school or home. Furthermore, mind the steps when you are going down the stairs. Don’t play with others at that time. Last but not the least, if we meet some emergency, we must call for help from the police or our teachers.
In a word, we should try our best to make sure we are safe.
Yours
