Chinese mathematics educator Gu Lingyuan delivered a lecture about a 45-year math teaching reform program in Shanghai at the 14th International Congress on Mathematical Education. The reform program—the “Qingpu Experiment”—has involved three generations of educators.
The experiment started in Shanghai’s Qingpu District in 1977 when Gu found only 2.8 percent of 4,300 surveyed middle school students there passed a test related to basic math knowledge, and 23.5 percent received zeros. Since then, three rounds of 15-year research and reforms in math teaching have been launched to improve the general local math education quality.
“The first period was to explore practical ways to improve education quality in most common situations,” Gu said. In this period, Gu and his colleagues(同事) spent three years in surveying students’ math learning. They then selected seven local schools and 50 teachers to learn about problems and useful experiences before screening out the most effective teaching approaches. The approaches were then promoted in all local schools.
With their efforts,16 percent of the final-year students passed the math test in the graduation exam in 1979, and the rate increased to 85 percent in 1986.
After improving students’ test scores they began to work on how to make students become “smarter”. In this period, they developed an approach to guiding students to develop their cognitive ability rather than merely memorizing mathematical concepts and practicing by doing exercises. In the past decade, they have been paying more attention to students’ innovative abilities and putting forward the approach of action education.
“This experiment helped us find out problems in mathematics education in China and offer solutions, in which we have summarized our own experiences,” said Gu.
4. What do the experimental data in paragraph 2 indicate
A. Students showed little interest in math.
B. Students diversified in learning outcomes.
C. Students exhibited limited math competence.
D. Students were distracted from math learning.
5. What can we learn from the first period of the experiment
A. One in five students passed the final graduation math test.
B. Selected measures were taken to boost students’ performance.
C. A survey concerning teachers’ education process was conducted.
D. Various teaching approaches were promoted across the country.
6 What have Gu and his colleagues focused on in the last ten years
A. Students’ innovative ability. B. Students’ memorizing ability.
C. Teachers’ education system. D. Teachers’ teaching technique.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. Qingpu Experiment: a 45-year math teaching reform program.
B. Gu Lingyuan: A pioneering mathematics educator.
C. The development of math education in China.
D. Education reforms in Qingpu District.

Without shiny black solar panels (太阳能板) on the roof, the residents in an apartment building in Illinois are enjoying the benefits of “community solar” — a program in which residents can buy electricity from nearby solar farms, reducing planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and receiving discounts on their electric bills.
The solar energy in community solar doesn’t actually flow into your home, but flows into your area’s power grid (电网), providing electricity to homes and businesses in your region, and you get the benefits of government solar rewards in the form of lower electricity bills.
Among those signing up for the program is Dickerson, 73, of Oak Park, Illinois. “Try it; you’ll like it,” he said. “You’ll save money, and you’ll feel good about saving the planet — at least a little bit.” Proudly showing charts of their electricity costs in a recent interview, Dickerson and his fellow members of the community green committee, said they’re all paying less with community solar for their individual homes as well as the community’s common space.
Community solar was pioneered in the mid-2000s as a way to bring clean energy to the many American households without access to solar panels for various reasons. “Community solar is about to boost everywhere in terms of access,” said Nicole Steele, a senior advisor in the U. S. Department of Energy. “It’s just another way to be part of the clean energy transformation and see the actual benefits.”
Dickerson and his neighbour Johnson have been protecting the planet since childhood, such as leaving no litter in the forest and sorting recyclables. Therefore, they found it easy to accept community solar. Now, the building’s green newsletter, edited by Johnson, is trumpeting community solar savings. “As a parent and grandparent, it’s kind of like a heritage,” Johnson said of this work. “How could I do something that’s bad for the world in which my grandchildren are going to live ”
8. How does community solar work
A. By directly transporting energy to households.
B. By equipping residents’ rooftops with panels.
C. By storing electricity in nearby solar farms.
D. By providing electricity through the power grid.
9. Why did Dickerson and the committee members sign up for the program
A. To prevent greenhouse gas emission.
B. To reduce cost and help save the planet.
C. To experience a more convenient energy.
D. To get rewards from the local government.
10. What is Nicole Steele’s attitude to community solar
A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive. C. Conservative. D. Approving.
11. What does the underlined word “trumpeting” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Admitting shyly. B. Stating critically.
C. Explaining secretly. D. Announcing proudly.
D
As they grow, children start doing certain activities without their parents watching over them. And while most parents agree that kids benefit from opportunities to be independent, they may be engaging in more “helicopter parenting”, suggests a new University of Michigan Health C. S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll (民意调查) on Children’s Health.
“There’s a sizable gap between parent attitudes about promoting children’s independence and what they actually allow or encourage their children to do without supervision (监督),” said Mott Poll co-director Sarah Clark, M. P. H.
Four in five parents of children aged 9 — 11 agree that it’s good for children to have free time without adult supervision. But fewer report their child actually does certain things without an adult present, the poll suggests.
About three in five parents have let their tween-aged child stay home for 30 — 60 minutes while half say their child has separated from them to find an item at another aisle (过道) in the store. Less than half say their child has walked or biked to a friend’s house or played at the park with a friend, and less than a sixth of parents have let their child trick-or-treat with friends.
The top reason behind parents’ hesitancy to promote such independent milestones was safety. “To some extent, worrying about your child is natural. But some parents are limiting their child’s independent activities due to highly publicized media reports, even if those outcomes are very unlikely to occur or cannot be prevented,” Clark said.
The elementary school years, Clark notes, is an important period for developing independence with parental guidance. “Becoming independent is a gradual process of allowing children increasing amounts of freedom, with parents there to teach skills and help the child understand the potential dangers of their choices,” Clark said. “As children become more experienced and comfortable with tasks, they can assume responsibility for doing them regularly. Research shows encouraging independence facilitates a child’s self-confidence, problem-solving ability, and mental health.”
12. What is an example of “helicopter parenting”
A. Sara allowing her 9-year-old daughter to go swimming alone.
B. David stopping his 10-year-old son playing football for fear of danger.
C. Anderson leaving his 11-year-old twins in the library on weekends.
D. Joann a inviting her 12-year-old daughter to go hiking in the mountain.
13. What is the main reason behind parents’ hesitancy
A. Being busy. B. Fear of media reports.
C. Lack of trust. D. Safety concerns.
14. According to Clark, what benefit can children gain from being independent
A. Improved physical health. B. Better social skills.
C. Enhanced problem-solving ability. D. Increased academic performance.
15. What is the suggested approach for parents to promote children’s independence
A. Gradually increasing freedom with parental support.
B. Giving children complete freedom without guidance.
C. Warning children of the potential dangers of their choices.
D. Encouraging independence after elementary school years.

Research by psychologist Carol Dweck suggests that there are two basic mindsets that influence how people think about themselves and their abilities: the fixed mindset and the growth mindset.
People who possess a fixed mindset believe that things such as intelligence are unchangeable. Those with a fixed mindset believe that success isn’t a result of hard work — it’s simply a result of talents. ____16____
Those who have a growth mindset, on the other hand, feel that they can change, grow, and learn through effort. ____17____ When things get tough, they look for ways to improve their skills and keep working toward success.
By taking baby steps, anyone who wants to can change one’s mindset from a “fixed” perspective (视角) to a “growth mindset”. Here’s how:
Acknowledge and accept imperfection in self and others. ____18____ Our imperfections make us unique. And self-love is a good thing.
Speed is not important. ____19____ Instead, you fully engage and put effort into the process, no matter how long it takes. By the way, focusing on the process often also improves results, because you did put a lot of effort in along the way.
____20____ People with growth mindsets don’t believe that failure is a reflection of their abilities. Instead, they view it as a valuable source of experience from which they can learn and improve. “That didn’t work,” they might think, “so this time I’ll try something a little different.”
By choosing to make the extra effort to build a growth mindset, you can make your mental processes work for you, resulting in a greater likelihood that you get the results you’re looking for and live the life you want to live.
A. Believe that your efforts matter.
B. View failures as learning experiences.
C. What works for you might not work for someone else.
D. They tend to give up more easily in the face of a challenge.
E. We all have our short-comings and weaknesses — our imperfections.
F. When you have a growth mindset, the end results are less of a focus.
G. People who believe that they are capable of growth are more likely to achieve success.

Listening to Be Heard
Our P. E. teacher Ms. Lopez had been out with a skiing injury. She was a caring and considerate teacher who showed patience and understanding to little minds like us. So, when we knew she was returning, some of us asked our substitute(替代) gym teacher if we could plan a welcome-back party.
“Sounds great,” said Ms. Green, “We have a few minutes before the bell rings, so you can do a little brainstorming while I put some stuff away.” We were excited and could not wait to let our minds wander. But here came the problem.
“I bet Ms. Lopez would like welcome-back cards.” I said.
“We should have a rock ‘n’ roll theme!” said Noah.
“No, we should make it a soccer theme! What about a cake shaped like a soccer ball!”said Avery.
“Why is soccer better than music ” said Noah.
“I think cards are really important!” I said louder.
The discussion soon turned into a noisy chaos (混乱). Everyone had their ideas to present and wished them to be realized. Even the “fashionable” kids interrupted, demanding to bring balloons and some fancy clothes like a skirt with orange flowers. It seemed all voices were ignored.
That was when the bell rang and the party discussion ended. I was in confusion and fear for the rest of the day. It was going to be a disaster, and Ms. Lopez wouldn’t even know we missed her.
When I returned home, my little brother and sister were arguing about a board game.
“I know the rules!” Tex shouted. “You don’t have to start over if you land on blue!”
“I know the rules!” shouted Indi. “You get an extra point if you get the flowers!”
I walked over to where they were playing and said, “If you’d stop and listen to each other, you might realize you’re both right.” I pointed to the rule sheet and read them the parts they’d been arguing about. They were surprised that they were both right. Suddenly it clicked—we had been busy presenting our ideas without listening to others.
注意：
1.续写词数应为 150 左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day in gym class, during the party discussion, I asked my classmates for a stop.

A week later, Ms. Lopez was amazed at the welcome-back party containing our various ideas.

Chinese mathematics educator Gu Lingyuan delivered a lecture about a 45-year math teaching reform program in Shanghai at the 14th International Congress on Mathematical Education. The reform program—the “Qingpu Experiment”—has involved three generations of educators.
The experiment started in Shanghai’s Qingpu District in 1977 when Gu found only 2.8 percent of 4,300 surveyed middle school students there passed a test related to basic math knowledge, and 23.5 percent received zeros. Since then, three rounds of 15-year research and reforms in math teaching have been launched to improve the general local math education quality.
“The first period was to explore practical ways to improve education quality in most common situations,” Gu said. In this period, Gu and his colleagues(同事) spent three years in surveying students’ math learning. They then selected seven local schools and 50 teachers to learn about problems and useful experiences before screening out the most effective teaching approaches. The approaches were then promoted in all local schools.
With their efforts,16 percent of the final-year students passed the math test in the graduation exam in 1979, and the rate increased to 85 percent in 1986.
After improving students’ test scores, they began to work on how to make students become “smarter”. In this period, they developed an approach to guiding students to develop their cognitive ability rather than merely memorizing mathematical concepts and practicing by doing exercises. In the past decade, they have been paying more attention to students’ innovative abilities and putting forward the approach of action education.
“This experiment helped us find out problems in mathematics education in China and offer solutions, in which we have summarized our own experiences,” said Gu.
4. What do the experimental data in paragraph 2 indicate
A. Students showed little interest in math.
B. Students diversified in learning outcomes.
C. Students exhibited limited math competence.
D. Students were distracted from math learning.
5. What can we learn from the first period of the experiment
A. One in five students passed the final graduation math test.
B. Selected measures were taken to boost students’ performance.
C. A survey concerning teachers’ education process was conducted.
D. Various teaching approaches were promoted across the country.
6. What have Gu and his colleagues focused on in the last ten years
A. Students’ innovative ability. B. Students’ memorizing ability.
C. Teachers’ education system. D. Teachers’ teaching technique.
7. What is the text mainly about
A Qingpu Experiment: a 45-year math teaching reform program.
B. Gu Lingyuan: A pioneering mathematics educator.
C. The development of math education in China.
D. Education reforms in Qingpu District.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. A

Without shiny black solar panels (太阳能板) on the roof, the residents in an apartment building in Illinois are enjoying the benefits of “community solar” — a program in which residents can buy electricity from nearby solar farms, reducing planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and receiving discounts on their electric bills.
The solar energy in community solar doesn’t actually flow into your home, but flows into your area’s power grid (电网), providing electricity to homes and businesses in your region, and you get the benefits of government solar rewards in the form of lower electricity bills.
Among those signing up for the program is Dickerson, 73, of Oak Park, Illinois. “Try it; you’ll like it,” he said. “You’ll save money, and you’ll feel good about saving the planet — at least a little bit.” Proudly showing charts of their electricity costs in a recent interview, Dickerson and his fellow members of the community green committee, said they’re all paying less with community solar for their individual homes as well as the community’s common space.
Community solar was pioneered in the mid-2000s as a way to bring clean energy to the many American households without access to solar panels for various reasons. “Community solar is about to boost everywhere in terms of access,” said Nicole Steele, a senior advisor in the U. S. Department of Energy. “It’s just another way to be part of the clean energy transformation and see the actual benefits.”
Dickerson and his neighbour Johnson have been protecting the planet since childhood, such as leaving no litter in the forest and sorting recyclables. Therefore, they found it easy to accept community solar. Now, the building’s green newsletter, edited by Johnson, is trumpeting community solar savings. “As a parent and grandparent, it’s kind of like a heritage,” Johnson said of this work. “How could I do something that’s bad for the world in which my grandchildren are going to live ”
8. How does community solar work
A. By directly transporting energy to households.
B. By equipping residents’ rooftops with panels.
C. By storing electricity in nearby solar farms.
D. By providing electricity through the power grid.
9. Why did Dickerson and the committee members sign up for the program
A. To prevent greenhouse gas emission.
B. To reduce cost and help save the planet.
C. To experience a more convenient energy.
D. To get rewards from the local government.
10. What is Nicole Steele’s attitude to community solar
A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive. C. Conservative. D. Approving.
11. What does the underlined word “trumpeting” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Admitting shyly. B. Stating critically.
C. Explaining secretly. D. Announcing proudly.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】

As they grow, children start doing certain activities without their parents watching over them. And while most parents agree that kids benefit from opportunities to be independent, they may be engaging in more “helicopter parenting”, suggests a new University of Michigan Health C. S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll (民意调查) on Children’s Health.
“There’s a sizable gap between parent attitudes about promoting children’s independence and what they actually allow or encourage their children to do without supervision (监督),” said Mott Poll co-director Sarah Clark, M. P. H.
Four in five parents of children aged 9 — 11 agree that it’s good for children to have free time without adult supervision. But fewer report their child actually does certain things without an adult present, the poll suggests.
About three in five parents have let their tween-aged child stay home for 30 — 60 minutes while half say their child has separated from them to find an item at another aisle (过道) in the store. Less than half say their child has walked or biked to a friend’s house or played at the park with a friend, and less than a sixth of parents have let their child trick-or-treat with friends.
The top reason behind parents’ hesitancy to promote such independent milestones was safety. “To some extent, worrying about your child is natural. But some parents are limiting their child’s independent activities due to highly publicized media reports, even if those outcomes are very unlikely to occur or cannot be prevented,” Clark said.
The elementary school years, Clark notes, is an important period for developing independence with parental guidance. “Becoming independent is a gradual process of allowing children increasing amounts of freedom, with parents there to teach skills and help the child understand the potential dangers of their choices,” Clark said. “As children become more experienced and comfortable with tasks, they can assume responsibility for doing them regularly. Research shows encouraging independence facilitates a child’s self-confidence, problem-solving ability, and mental health.”
12. What is an example of “helicopter parenting”
A. Sara allowing her 9-year-old daughter to go swimming alone.
B. David stopping his 10-year-old son playing football for fear of danger.
C. Anderson leaving his 11-year-old twins in the library on weekends.
D. Joann a inviting her 12-year-old daughter to go hiking in the mountain.
13. What is the main reason behind parents’ hesitancy
A. Being busy. B. Fear of media reports.
C. Lack of trust. D. Safety concerns.
14. According to Clark, what benefit can children gain from being independent
A. Improved physical health. B. Better social skills.
C. Enhanced problem-solving ability. D. Increased academic performance.
15. What is the suggested approach for parents to promote children’s independence
A. Gradually increasing freedom with parental support.
B. Giving children complete freedom without guidance.
C. Warning children of the potential dangers of their choices.
D. Encouraging independence after elementary school years.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A

Research by psychologist Carol Dweck suggests that there are two basic mindsets that influence how people think about themselves and their abilities: the fixed mindset and the growth mindset.
People who possess a fixed mindset believe that things such as intelligence are unchangeable. Those with a fixed mindset believe that success isn’t a result of hard work — it’s simply a result of talents. ____16____
Those who have a growth mindset, on the other hand, feel that they can change, grow, and learn through effort. ____17____ When things get tough, they look for ways to improve their skills and keep working toward success.
By taking baby steps, anyone who wants to can change one’s mindset from a “fixed” perspective (视角) to a “growth mindset”. Here’s how:
Acknowledge and accept imperfection in self and others. ____18____ Our imperfections make us unique. And self-love is a good thing.
Speed is not important. ____19____ Instead, you fully engage and put effort into the process, no matter how long it takes. By the way, focusing on the process often also improves results, because you did put a lot of effort in along the way.
____20____ People with growth mindsets don’t believe that failure is a reflection of their abilities. Instead, they view it as a valuable source of experience from which they can learn and improve. “That didn’t work,” they might think, “so this time I’ll try something a little different.”
By choosing to make the extra effort to build a growth mindset, you can make your mental processes work for you, resulting in a greater likelihood that you get the results you’re looking for and live the life you want to live.
A. Believe that your efforts matter.
B. View failures as learning experiences.
C. What works for you might not work for someone else.
D. They tend to give up more easily in the face of a challenge.
E. We all have our short-comings and weaknesses — our imperfections.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了中国为回收塑料垃圾作出的努力。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意：一旦这种排放达到一定程度，就会造成环境问题，进而危害人类。result in“导致”，固定短语，故填in。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：中国回收塑料垃圾的努力为减缓全球气候变化做出了重大贡献，减少了数百万吨的石油消耗和碳排放。空处应填动词不定式作后置定语，修饰抽象名词“efforts”，故填to recycle。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意同上。空处修饰动词“contributed”，应用副词形式，故填significantly。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：中国还减少了9亿吨垃圾的产生。prevent…from doing sth“阻止……做某事”，空处应填动名词形式作宾语，且动词generate和waste之间是被动关系，故用动名词的被动式，故填being generated。
【40题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：近十年来，中国已建立起以市场为基础、覆盖范围广的塑料回收体系，占世界塑料回收总量的45%以上。根据时间状语“Over the past decade”可知句子时态用现在完成时，主语“China”表示单数意义，助动词用has，故填has established。
【41题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：中国现在拥有世界上最大的塑料回收能力。根据空前的“the”以及空后的“in the world”可知此处应用形容词最高级，故填largest。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：其庞大的塑料回收行业拥有约90万名工人，2021年回收了全国31%的塑料废物，约为全球平均水平的1.7倍。此处是倍数表达法“数字+times+the+名词”，故填the。
【43题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：中国也为回收世界其他地区的塑料废物做出了巨大贡献。contribution“贡献”，是可数名词，make great contributions“作出巨大贡献”，此处应用名词复数形式，故填contributions。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：1992年至2018年间，中国回收了1.06亿吨进口塑料垃圾，其中大部分来自欧盟和美国。分词句子可知，此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词是“imported plastic waste”，关系词在从句中作介词of的宾语，应用关系代词which，故填which。
【45题详解】
考查时态。句意：这帮助节约了3.18亿吨石油。结合上文内容可知，此处是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，空格处是谓语动词，用过去式。故填helped。

Listening to Be Heard
Our P. E. teacher Ms. Lopez had been out with a skiing injury. She was a caring and considerate teacher who showed patience and understanding to little minds like us. So, when we knew she was returning, some of us asked our substitute(替代) gym teacher if we could plan a welcome-back party.
“Sounds great,” said Ms. Green, “We have a few minutes before the bell rings, so you can do a little brainstorming while I put some stuff away.” We were excited and could not wait to let our minds wander. But here came the problem.
“I bet Ms. Lopez would like welcome-back cards.” I said.
“We should have a rock ‘n’ roll theme!” said Noah
“No, we should make it a soccer theme! What about a cake shaped like a soccer ball!”said Avery.
“Why is soccer better than music ” said Noah.
“I think cards are really important!” I said, louder.
The discussion soon turned into a noisy chaos (混乱). Everyone had their ideas to present and wished them to be realized. Even the “fashionable” kids interrupted, demanding to bring balloons and some fancy clothes like a skirt with orange flowers. It seemed all voices were ignored.
That was when the bell rang and the party discussion ended. I was in confusion and fear for the rest of the day. It was going to be a disaster, and Ms. Lopez wouldn’t even know we missed her.
When I returned home, my little brother and sister were arguing about a board game.
“I know the rules!” Tex shouted. “You don’t have to start over if you land on blue!”
“I know the rules!” shouted Indi. “You get an extra point if you get the flowers!”
I walked over to where they were playing and said, “If you’d stop and listen to each other, you might realize you’re both right.” I pointed to the rule sheet and read them the parts they’d been arguing about. They were surprised that they were both right. Suddenly it clicked—we had been busy presenting our ideas without listening to others.

【答案】作答示例：
The next day in gym class, during the party discussion, I asked my classmates for a stop. We all want to do something special for Ms. Lopez, but we need to find a way to incorporate everyone’s ideas. “Instead of arguing about which idea is better, let’s find a way to combine them,” I suggested. Surprised by my interruption, the class fell silent and listened as I continued, “We can have a rock ‘n’ roll-inspired decoration with a soccer-themed cake. And for those who want to bring balloons and wear fancy clothes, let’s make sure it fits with the overall theme too. This way, we can include everyone’s suggestions and make the party special for Ms. Lopez.”
A week later, Ms. Lopez was amazed at the welcome-back party containing our various ideas. We incorporated everyone’s suggestions into a harmonious celebration that made Ms. Lopez surprised and delighted. She praised the students for our unity and thoughtfulness, showing the importance of listening and respecting each other’s ideas. From that day on, we learned that to be heard, we must first learn to listen. We strengthened our bonds as a class and made Ms. Lopez’s return truly memorable.
