According to a recent survey on the Double Reduction Policy (“双减”政策) (Chart 1), kids in Wellington Primary School spend much time doing their homework. Therefore, both kids and parents disagree with too much homework.
Is it good for kids to do homework Of course. A great number of researches do show that kids can remember what they have learned in class better by finishing their homework on time and homework itself plays an important role in developing their learning skills such as independent thinking and creativity.
But for parents in Wellington Primary School the result is not the same. After a day of hard work, most of them feel like they’re attending school a second time when they sit down with their children each night to help with their homework. And a recent survey (Chart 2) found that some parents feel like they don’t spend enough time with their children, because they spend too much time doing the housework or doing their own work. The school surveyed(调查) 1,200 parents and the result shows that 50 percent of parents who have enough time with their kids have arguments with their kids often when they have different answers to the same question.
Now several educators strongly advise parents to stop helping. They say it will give their kids more independence and give parents their free time back. At the same time, the number of homework-connected arguments will be fewer at home. Kate Smith, an educator, says, “Parents don’t have to know everything. Children need to put their hands up for help in school. Moreover, kids can use their resources when they do homework at home—online teachers or even their neighborhood classmates.”
根据图表及短文内容，选择最佳答案。
26．How long do the most kids spend doing homework ________
A．Six hours a day. B．Six hours a week.
C．Eight hours every week. D．More than ten hours a week.
27．What do we know from the researches mentioned in Paragraph 2 ________
A．Parents enjoy sitting down and helping their kids. B．Both parents and kids hate homework.
C．Kids love doing homework by themselves. D．Homework improves learning skills.
28．How many parents have arguments with their kids often when they have different answers to the same question ________
A．1,200. B．600. C．324. D．648.
29．When they are helping their kids, most parents feel .
A．they are school students again B．they are at work again
C．they are teachers of their kids D．they are not as good as their kids
30．What’s Kate Smith’s advice for parents ________
A．Ask kids to finish everything at school.
B．Ask kids to review everything they learn at school.
C．Ask kids to do their homework with the help of their parents.
D．Ask kids to look for help.

29．细节理解题。根据“After a day of hard work, most of them feel like they’re attending school a second time when they sit down with their children each night to help with their homework.”可知，当他们帮助孩子时，大多数父母都觉得他们又是学校的学生了，故选A。

四、阅读型理解
For Chinese students, the new term might be a little different from those in the past. In July, China introduced the “double reduction” policy (双减政策). It hopes to reduce students’ learning burden (负担) by reducing homework and after-school classes. Two months has passed since the new term began. How do students feel about this new policy
“Our homework is clearly (A) than before,” said 14-year-old Shen Yuzhe from Beijing.
“We are not encouraged to buy workbooks anymore. The exercises are mainly from the textbook.”
According to Shen, teachers now teach much slower. Students have enough time to learn new knowledge. “Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments and learn from real life,” said Shen. “For example, we went to research insects in a field. This is a much better way to learn things than just (B) hitting the books.”
For 13-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin, the best thing about “double reduction” is the increased time in after-school activities. “We can now spend more time taking part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and drama. I have joined a group where I can learn all kinds of skills,” said Zhang. Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now. But they think (C) it is not necessarily a good thing. “Exams push me to study harder. (D) Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points.” Zhang said. Shen also pointed out that when burden is lightened, self-discipline (自律) becomes the key. “Some students now spend more time having fun when they finish their homework early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind others,” he said.
31．根据文章内容用英语列举双减减什么。
(1) reducing _________________ (2) reducing ______________
32．从文中找出与The school time is not all the same as they had before when school began this year. 意思相同或相近的句子。
______________________________________________________________________________________
33．在文中(A)处填入合适的单词 ________________________
34．写出文章(B)处hitting the books的汉语意思。 ________________
35．从文中找出(C)处划线单词“it”指代的内容。
_______________________________________________________________________________________
36．将文中(D)处划线句子Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points.译成汉语。
_______________________________________________________________________________________
37．根据短文内容填空，每空不超过2词。
Since the new term began, not only Shen Yuzhe but also Zhang Hangming _________ that the exams are fewer than before. But some students are not so self-disciplined, they spend more time having fun when their homework _________ early. So they should __________ all the free time to relax, or they might fall behind others easily.
【答案】
homework after-school classes
32．For Chinese students, the new term might be a little different from those in the past.
33．less than
34．好好读书
35．there are fewer exams now
36．每次考试都显示了我的进步和弱点。
37． find is finished not use
【导语】本文介绍了中国推出双减政策，希望减轻学生的学习负担，并介绍了学生们对这项新政策的看法。
31．根据“It hopes to reduce students’ learning burden (负担) by reducing homework and after-school classes.”可知双减希望通过减少家庭作业和课后课程减轻学生的学习负担负担。故填homework；after-school classes。
32．not all the same as意为“不完全一样”，与a little different from“有点不同于”含义几乎一致。故填For Chinese students, the new term might be a little different from those in the past.
33．根据“It hopes to reduce students’ learning burden (负担) by reducing homework and after-school classes.”可知双减希望通过减少家庭作业和课后课程减轻学生的学习负担负担。因此作业比之前少。less than“少于”。故填less than。
34．hit the books意为“用功、好好读书”。故填好好读书。
35．此句they think it is not necessarily a good thing.意为“他们认为这不一定是件好事。”指的是前文提到的“现在考试更少了”。故填there are fewer exams now。
36．Each exam“每次考试”；show“显示”；as well as“和”；my progress“我的进步”；my weak points“我的弱点”。故填每次考试都显示了我的进步和弱点。
37．根据“Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now.”可知沈和张都发现现在考试更少了，即find；根据“when they finish their homework early.”可知是学生在提前完成作业时，此处作业作主语，用被动语态结构，即is finished；根据“if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind others”可知如果你把所有的空闲时间都用来放松，你可能会落后于其他人。此句可转换为“他们不应该把所有的空闲时间都用来放松，否则他们很容易落后于别人”。故填find；is finished；not use。
五、补全对话
根据下面的对话情景，在每个空白处填上一个适当的句子，使对话的意思连贯、完整。

39．根据前一句“Great changes have taken place in my life.”可知，此处是要回答双减后具体有哪些变化；结合生活实际，可以回答说“我们可以晚点上学”/“我们的作业少了”/“我们比以前有更多的空闲时间”等，答案不唯一。故填We can go to school late /We have less homework /We have more free time that before…
40．根据下文“No.”可知，问句为一般疑问句；再根据“We’re not allowed to go to after-school classes any longer.”可推知，此处是问现在还去课后辅导班吗。故填Do you still go to after-school classes。

The classes will become part of the course in primary and middle schools from September. What the students have to learn in class includes many kinds of housework, such as “household cleaning and cooking”.
According to the standards, primary school students will be required to understand and learn the skills of home cooking, from preparing vegetables to finally being able to complete the whole process of home cooking by themselves.

According to a recent survey on the Double Reduction Policy (“双减”政策) (Chart 1), kids in Wellington Primary School spend much time doing their homework. Therefore, both kids and parents disagree with too much homework.
Is it good for kids to do homework Of course. A great number of researches do show that kids can remember what they have learned in class better by finishing their homework on time and homework itself plays an important role in developing their learning skills such as independent thinking and creativity.
But for parents in Wellington Primary School the result is not the same. After a day of hard work, most of them feel like they’re attending school a second time when they sit down with their children each night to help with their homework. And a recent survey (Chart 2) found that some parents feel like they don’t spend enough time with their children, because they spend too much time doing the housework or doing their own work. The school surveyed(调查) 1,200 parents and the result shows that 50 percent of parents who have enough time with their kids have arguments with their kids often when they have different answers to the same question.
Now several educators strongly advise parents to stop helping. They say it will give their kids more independence and give parents their free time back. At the same time, the number of homework-connected arguments will be fewer at home. Kate Smith, an educator, says, “Parents don’t have to know everything. Children need to put their hands up for help in school. Moreover, kids can use their resources when they do homework at home—online teachers or even their neighborhood classmates.”

四、阅读型理解
For Chinese students, the new term might be a little different from those in the past. In July, China introduced the “double reduction” policy (双减政策). It hopes to reduce students’ learning burden (负担) by reducing homework and after-school classes. Two months has passed since the new term began. How do students feel about this new policy
“Our homework is clearly (A) than before,” said 14-year-old Shen Yuzhe from Beijing.
“We are not encouraged to buy workbooks anymore. The exercises are mainly from the textbook.”
According to Shen, teachers now teach much slower. Students have enough time to learn new knowledge. “Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments and learn from real life,” said Shen. “For example, we went to research insects in a field. This is a much better way to learn things than just (B) hitting the books.”
For 13-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin, the best thing about “double reduction” is the increased time in after-school activities. “We can now spend more time taking part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and drama. I have joined a group where I can learn all kinds of skills,” said Zhang. Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now. But they think (C) it is not necessarily a good thing. “Exams push me to study harder. (D) Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points.” Zhang said. Shen also pointed out that when burden is lightened, self-discipline (自律) becomes the key. “Some students now spend more time having fun when they finish their homework early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind others,” he said.
