Good Schools to Learn English
Atlanta English Institute (AEI)
It is designed for academically oriented, non-native speaking adults from beginners levels to those seeking mastery．Each program in the school is specially designed for our students and based on their current English levels and their goals．A student may register anytime, not merely at the beginning of a course．But at the middle of the course, registration time depends on the availability of space in the classrooms．
Atlanta International Language Institute (AILI)
It provides the opportunity to learn how to read, write and speak English as a second language for those who have little knowledge of the English language．Courses include ten continuous weekly classes and the classes meet once a week for two hours．The curriculum of this language program is built for groups of three or more students who can complete the material in ten weeks．
TALK Atlanta English School (TAES)
Located in the heart of Atlanta's Midtown Centre area on Peachtree Street, it opened in 2011．Atlanta is home to numerous industries, making the Midtown location perfectly suited for corporate programs．With ample covered street parking space, the school is designed in the popular Atlanta loft style and has 10 large classrooms, a large and welcoming reception area, devoted full-time teachers and staff for teenagers and adults．
Language Institute of Georgia (LIG)
It is a well-established school in Atlanta that offers English classes using Graded Reader Method．Our maximum class size is eight students．Class meets once a week for two hours for six weeks．Please check our schedule section for start dates．Refunds (退款) have to be requested within a week of the start date of the class．

At 7 am, in the dark of an autumn morning, parents arrive to drop off their children at the kindergarten in Viimsi, a 15-minute drive from Tallinn, before heading off to work in the city．
The day starts officially at 9 am, but Laanelinnu kindergarten that widely gains a liking of working parents opens two hours earlier and does not close until 7 pm．In doing so, working parents won't worry about being late for work and leaving the office early．
The kindergarten focuses on pre-school education．Classrooms, with vast windows fronting onto forest, fan out around a whitewashed central hall, and outside a large playground surrounds the entire building．Some of the children who attend Laanelinnu are as young as two, but as we enter the building barely a sound can be heard．In each of the classrooms, which are large and well equipped, there are up to 20 children—attentive and focused—supervised by a qualified pre-school teacher and two assistant teachers．
Despite having visitors, the children at Laanelinnu focus on their lessons．In one darkened classroom, they lie on their backs in a quiet corner as their teachers prepare for the day ahead．In another class, there's music and dancing．In another group, children are doing a project about the human body, while next door there's a cookery class going on, with a tasting period followed by bread-making．
The pre-school course takes in everything from letters and language skills to art, music and robotics．“Though it's not called school, it's the first step of their education，” says the kindergarten's project manager．“We do teach kids here．It is no longer simply childcare．” By the time they leave, most children will have learned to read and write, but in a relaxed environment．
The kindergarten system is an integrated part of national education and at the end of their time there, children are given a school readiness card that they take with them to the next stage in their education．
4．Why is Laanelinnu kindergarten popular among working parents
A．It starts officially at 9 am．

C．Fun Learning: with Films and Robotics
D．A Kindergarten: Not Just About Childcare

Previous studies have found that the number of years spent in school relates to cognition later in life, but few studies have examined the influence of educational quality．
“Our study establishes a link between high-quality education and better later-life cognition and suggests that increased investment in schools could be a powerful strategy to improve cognitive health among older adults in the United States，” said Jennifer Manly, senior author of the study．
The study, led by Manly and Dominika eblová， a postdoctoral research scientist at Columbia, used data from Project Talent, a 1960 survey of high school students across the United States, and follow-up data collected in the Project Talent Aging Study．The researchers examined the relationships between six indicators (指标) of school quality and several measures of cognitive performance in participants nearly 60 years after they left high school．Since high-quality schools may be especially beneficial for people from disadvantaged backgrounds, the researchers also examined whether associations differed by geography, gender, race and ethnicity．
The researchers found that attending a school with a higher number of teachers with graduate training was the most consistent predictor of better later-life cognition, especially in language fluency (for example, coming up with words within a category)．Attending a school with a high number of graduate-level teachers was about equal to the difference in cognition between a 70-year-old and someone who is one to three years older．Other indicators of school quality were related to some, but not all, measures of cognitive performance．
According to Manly and eblová， there may be many reasons explaining why attending schools with well-trained teachers may affect later-life cognition．“Instruction provided by more experienced and knowledgeable teachers might be more intellectually inspiring and provide additional neural or cognitive benefits，” said eblová， “and attending higher-quality schools may also influence life track, leading to university education and greater earnings, which are in turn linked to better cognition in later life．”
8．How did Manly and eblová conduct the research
A．By conducting surveys．
B．By making comparisons．
C．By explaining examples．
D．By interviewing the elders．
9．What is the result of the study
A．The physical health determines your future life．
B．Good education contributes to good later-life cognition．
C．Language fluency is based on postgraduate training．
D．Good schools should have many well-trained teachers．
10．What is the author's purpose in writing the text
A．To remind the public of seniors' health．
B．To look into investment in schools．
C．To achieve the fairness of humans．
D．To attach importance to education．
11．What is eblová's attitude to high-quality school education
A．Favourable． B．Doubtful．
C．Uncaring． D．Opposing．
D
A new study suggests that mindfulness education—lessons on techniques to calm the mind and body—can reduce the negative effects of stress and increase students' ability to stay engaged, helping them stay on track academically and avoid behaviour problems．
After finding that students who self-reported mindful habits performed better on tests and had higher grades, researchers from the Centre for Education Policy Research at Harvard University wanted to know if school-based mindfulness training could help more students reap similar benefits．
They designed a study focusing on sixth-graders in a Boston school．The study showed that sixth-graders who participated in an eight-week mindfulness were less stressed out than their classmates who hadn't．Practising mindfulness had helped improve the ability to focus in the moment, expanding students' capacity to learn and regulate their emotions．
Four times a week, instructors from Calmer Choice, a Massachusetts non-profit specialising in mindfulness education, taught the group techniques and led them through practices, like focusing on a rock for a minute, then discussing when their mind wandered and refocused on the rock．Another group of sixth-graders took computer coding during that time instead．The students were randomly assigned between the groups．
At the end of the eight weeks, the mindfulness group reported being less stressed than they had been before the mindfulness education, and better able to practise self-control．And their amygdalae, the part of the brain that controls emotion, responded less to pictures of fearful faces than they did prior to the mindfulness work, suggesting their brains were less sensitive to negative stimuli, or, in other words, that they were less likely to get stressed out and lose focus．The group who attended coding classes didn't see the same benefits．
The findings suggest that the mindfulness instruction helped boost students' attention skills, as well as develop coping mechanisms for stress．The researchers believe it could be especially useful for schools to support students suffering from severe mental damage and other adversities that trigger stress in the body, hurting students' ability to succeed．
12．What was the purpose of the study
A．To examine the techniques for practising mindfulness．
B．To study the effects of group mindfulness training on students．
C．To see how students help themselves to perform better on tests．
D．To understand why mindfulness training calms the mind and body．
13．How was the study conducted
A．By listing benefits of mindfulness education．
B．By scanning the brain to see how it controls emotions．
C．By teaching different students different mindfulness skills．
D．By comparing two groups of students attending different classes．
14．What change took place after the students practised mindfulness work
A．They felt easier to stay focused．
B．They were better at computer coding．
C．Their mind was wandering more actively．
D．Their brains were more aware of negativity．
15．Who are the most possible target readers of the passage
A．Stressful parents．
B．Mindful instructors．
C．Emotional students．
D．School educators．

Have you ever wished you didn't have to wake up early and go all the way to school For 700，000 American kids, this wish comes true． 16 This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning．Regardless of what it is called, this idea may create an impression of a lonely kid reading pages of information on a computer screen rather than from a book or an image of another kid spending the day playing video games instead of learning mathematics or reading a book．Where online education is concerned, both of these are false! Actually, online learning simply means learning differently．
17 Flexibility is the main advantage．Students can attend school wherever and whenever they desire．Homework can be turned in from anywhere the student has Internet access．Additionally, many online schools will allow students to work at their own pace．
Another advantage of online schooling is with the variety of courses．Most online schools teach the same basic classes like English, math, science, and history． 18 However, traditional schools are often unable to offer these types of classes if there are not enough students．
Online schools also have different types of learning tools for kids to use．For example, many online schools have special websites where only students registered in online classes can watch videos, see lessons presented, or chat with teachers and other students．Some online schools have live class times where students can call and talk with the teacher directly． 19
Computer technology is amazing, and we use computers for chatting with our friends, listening to music, and playing games． 20 Since 2012, at least 38 states either have had their own online schools or made rules for students attending them．It looks like online schools are here to stay, but only you can decide if this type of learning is right for you．
A．Online schools offer many benefits for the learners．
B．Of course, there are some disadvantages of going to school online．
C．Almost every part of our lives is affected by it, and school is no exception．
D．They attend school over the Internet using ordinary home or library computers．
E．Other online schools even have online clubs where kids can talk about their hobbies．
F．Some online schools also offer specialised classes in subjects such as space science, French, or zoology．
G．For some students, online school may be ideal, but for others, traditional school may better meet their needs．

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I used to work in a preschool for one and a half years, teaching the class for 2-year-olds．There was a head teacher and two assistant teachers(including me) in our class．
Maybe 8 months into my work, we had a new student named Jack, who was nearly 3 years old but hardly knew any words．In fact when he arrived, the only words he would say were “hi” and “no”．Based on our working experience, we suspected his parents just never interacted with him at home．
Every morning, Jack's mom would drop him off with a totally blank expression．The moment they arrived, Jack would start crying, holding onto the hand or leg of his mother, who would just struggle to get the boy off her, saying “Let me go, Jack．” and then walk away without a look back．When she picked him up in the afternoon, Jack would run up to show her something but she would simply stare blankly at him and say “Let's go, Jack．” If the teachers reported anything to her, she'd say “I see．” “Mhmm．”， giving us the same absent look．
Jack's dad rarely came and he was just as bad．He obviously had an anger problem．Anytime he heard something negative had happened, he would turn red, stare angrily at his son and just say “HUH．Well．We will deal with it．” in such a cold voice．
As a result, the boy, who longed desperately for attention and love, was always bad-tempered (坏脾气)．He would run, kick, hit, and even sometimes bite other kids．And when he did it he would laugh and turn to us to look for a reaction．We criticised and punished him again and again, but it didn't work at all．After his second week, the lead teacher decided to talk to his mom about it．His mom just shrugged (耸肩) it off, gave that blank look and said, “Oh yeah, Jack is a handful (难管的人)．I just can't help it．”The teachers were all shocked．
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
Having handled Jack for two months, we adjusted our approach．______________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

[参考范文]　
Having handled Jack for two months, we adjusted our approach． Instead of punishing him every time he misbehaved, we tried to give him more positive attention．When he did well we praised him, and when he was sad we hugged him and played games with him．Slowly but surely, Jack started to open up．He would smile more often and even started babbling more words．
To our great joy, Jack gradually changed．He stopped hitting and biting other kids and even started playing nicely with them．Seeing the great changes that had taken place in their child, Jack's parents also deeply reflected on themselves．His parents started taking more of an interest in him and even started attending parent-teacher meetings．At the moment, I realised that every child needs love and attention, and that a little positivity can go a long way in changing a child's life．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个学好英语的学校以及它们的课程。
1．C　[细节理解题。根据 “Atlanta International Language Institute (AILI)” 中提及的“Courses include ten continuous weekly classes and the classes meet once a week for two hours．”可知，总共需要20个小时才能修完AILI的课程。故选C。]
2．C　[细节理解题。根据“Language Institute of Georgia (LIG)”中提及的“Refunds have to be requested within a week of the start date of the class．”可知，学生应特别注意退款的最后期限。故选C。]
3．A　[推理判断题。根据文章前三个学校的名字中分别都提到了一个地方“Atlanta(亚特兰大)”以及最后学校“Language Institute of Georgia (LIG)”在介绍的内容中“It is a well-established school in Atlanta that offers English classes using Graded Reader Method．”可知，这四所学校都有一个共同点，即都位于亚特兰大。故选A。]
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Viimsi的Laanelinnu幼儿园。该幼儿园为家长工作提供便利，注重学龄前教育，课程包括字母、语言技能、艺术、音乐和机器人等，是孩子们的第一步教育。
4．C　[推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The day starts officially at 9 am, but Laanelinnu kindergarten that widely gains a liking of working parents opens two hours earlier and does not close until 7 pm．”可知，Laanelinnu幼儿园的开园时间早和放学时间晚，这为上班的家长接送孩子提供了极大的便利。由此推知，正是因为时间上最大的灵活性让Laanelinnu幼儿园受职场家长们的欢迎。故选C。]
5．A　[词义猜测题。分析句子可知，“supervised by a qualified pre-school teacher and two assistant teachers”是后置定语，修饰名词“20 children”，画线词“supervised”的逻辑主语是“20 children”。结合画线词后“a qualified pre-school teacher and two assistant teachers”可推知，“20个孩子”是由幼儿园的“学前教师和两名助理教师”监管，所以画线词supervised与monitor同义，意为“监督，管理”。故选A。]
6．C　[推理判断题。根据第四段“Despite having visitors, the children at Laanelinnu focus on their lessons．In one darkened classroom, they lie on their backs in a quiet corner as their teachers prepare for the day ahead．In another class, there's music and dancing．In another group, children are doing a project about the human body, while next door there's a cookery class going on, with a tasting period followed by bread-making．”可知，来访者会发现Laanelinnu幼儿园课程丰富多样。故选C。]
7．D　[标题归纳题。通读全文，结合第三段中的“The kindergarten focuses on pre-school education．”，倒数第二段中的“The pre-school course takes in everything from letters and language skills to art, music and robotics．”和“We do teach kids here．It is no longer simply childcare．”可知，文章介绍了Viimsi的Laanelinnu幼儿园，该幼儿园不仅仅是照顾孩子，它更注重学龄前教育，课程包括字母、语言技能、艺术、音乐和机器人等。由此推知，“一所幼儿园：不只是照顾孩子”可作为文章最佳标题。故选D。]
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了高质量教育和晚年认知能力之间的关系。研究表明，就读于拥有更多研究生培训教师的学校与晚年认知能力之间存在明确的关联，尤其在语言流利性方面。
8．B　[推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The researchers examined the relationships between six indicators of school quality and several measures of cognitive performance in participants nearly 60 years after they left high school．Since high-quality schools may be especially beneficial for people from disadvantaged backgrounds, the researchers also examined whether associations differed by geography, gender, race and ethnicity．”可知， Manly 和 eblová领导的研究探讨了学校质量的六项指标与认知表现的几项指标之间的关系以及来自弱势背景的人的地理、性别、种族和民族之间的联系。由此可推断，该研究主要使用了作比较的方法。故选B。]
9．B　[细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The researchers found that attending a school with a higher number of teachers with graduate training was the most consistent predictor of better later-life cognition, especially in language fluency (for example, coming up with words within a category)．”可知，良好的教育促进晚年的认知，所以B项“Good education contributes to good later-life cognition．”是该研究的结果。故选B。]
10．D　[写作意图题。根据第一段“Previous studies have found that the number of years spent in school relates to cognition later in life, but few studies have examined the influence of educational quality．”和关键提示词“but”可知，作者强调教育质量的影响，所以本文的写作目的是强调教育的重要性。故选D。]
11．A　[观点态度题。根据最后一段中 eblová所说的话“Instruction provided by more experienced and knowledgeable teachers might be more intellectually inspiring and provide additional neural or cognitive benefits”和“and attending higher-quality schools may also influence life track, leading to university education and greater earnings, which are in turn linked to better cognition in later life”可推断出这位专家对于高质量的教育是持支持态度的。故选A。]
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的一项新的研究表明，正念教育课程可以帮助学生减少压力带来的负面影响，提高他们保持专注的能力。
12．B　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“researchers from the Centre for Education Policy Research at Harvard University wanted to know if school-based mindfulness training could help more students reap similar benefits”可知，该研究探究的是以学校为基础的正念训练对学生是否有类似的好处，即群体正念训练对学生的效果。故选B。]
13．D　[推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Four times a week, instructors from Calmer Choice, a Massachusetts non-profit specialising in mindfulness education, taught the group techniques and led them through practices”和“Another group of sixth-graders took computer coding during that time instead．”可知，研究人员将参与者分成了两个小组，一个小组进行正念训练，另一个小组学习编程。因此，该研究是通过比较学习不同课程的两组学生来进行的。故选D。]
14．A　[细节理解题。根据第五段中的“And their amygdalae, the part of the brain that controls emotion, responded less to pictures of fearful faces than they did prior to the mindfulness work, suggesting their brains were less sensitive to negative stimuli, or, in other words, that they were less likely to get stressed out and lose focus．”可知，在学生们进行正念练习后，他们更容易集中注意力，保持专注。故选A。]
15．D　[推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The researchers believe it could be especially useful for schools to support students suffering from severe mental damage and other adversities that trigger stress in the body, hurting students' ability to succeed．”可知，该研究可以很好地指导学校去帮助遭遇精神损伤和其他逆境的学生。由此推知，文章最有可能的目标读者群体是学校的教育者。故选D。]
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章列举了在线教育或远程教学的优势。
16．D　[根据前文“对于美国70万的孩子来说，他们不用早起去上学的梦想实现了”和后文“This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning．”可知，空白处应是孩子们通过网络学习的新方式，与D项呼应。故选D。]
17．A　[根据空白处后面的句子“Flexibility is the main advantage．”以及下一段的“Another advantage”可知，此处的意思应该为“网上学校对学习者有很多好处”。故选A。]
18．F　[根据空白处前面的句子“Most online schools teach the same basic classes like English, math, science, and history．”可知，空白处应该列举另外一些学校开设的课程名称。分析选项可知，F项里的“also”和“specialised”以及专业课名称都与空白处前面的句子相呼应。故选F。]
19．E　[根据空白处前面的句子“Some online schools have live class times where students can call and talk with the teacher directly．”以及本段第一句中的“learning tools”可知，此处应该是通过某种工具在网上进行在线活动，与E项中的“online clubs where kids can talk about their hobbies”相呼应。故选E。]
20．C　[根据空白处前面的句子可知，我们可以通过电脑科技做很多事。根据空白处后面的句子可知，自2012年以来，至少有38个州有自己的在线学校或制定了学生入学规则。空白处需要填一个句子来承上启下。故选C。]
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者因工作中遇到瓶颈又回到校园进修学习，最终成为大学讲师的故事。
21．B　[根据上文“After ten years in the same company, I found my job was no longer fun．However, I didn't have the confidence to apply for new jobs due to lack of experience．”可知，作者现在的工作不愿做了，又没有自信找新工作。由此可知，作者觉得自己被困住了，进退两难。故选B。]
22．C　 [根据下文“Yet I found a course at London College of Communication, __________ my job and enrolled．”可知，作者是按照朋友的建议去回到大学进修学位，去接受教育。故选C。]
23．A　[作者自己曾经想过去攻读学位，该空应填阻止作者去攻读学位的原因，结合下文“the self-doubt that had followed me around like a __________ began to disappear gradually”可知，“self-doubt”为原词复现，与第三空呼应。故选A。]
24．C　[根据空前的“found a course at London College of Communication”及空后的“enrolled”可知，作者应该是辞去现有工作去注册报名了大学课程，去进修学习。故选C。]
25．D　[根据上一句“During the 18 months that followed, I began to flourish．”可知，作者对自己的大学进修学习是满意的，对比第一段中觉得自己是被困住，作者觉得自己的生活正在向着新的、好的方向前进。故选D。]
26．A　[句意：我不仅找到了勇气，带领我的生活朝着一个新的、令人兴奋的方向前进，而且一直像影子一样跟着我的自我怀疑开始逐渐消失。自我怀疑应该是一种负面的影响，比喻为随时跟随、挥之不去的阴影，“shadow”是符合语境的。故选A。]

38．where　[考查定语从句。句意：见上题解析。空处引导限制性定语从句，先行词是a place，是地点名词，定语从句“you can develop relationships with many different people, join clubs, and take part in a variety of different sports”中缺少地点状语，用关系副词where引导从句，作地点状语。故填where。]

41．harmful　[考查形容词。句意：高中的同龄人压力既有害又有效，因为它会导致青少年抑郁、高压力水平、不良行为问题以及糟糕的决策和结果。根据is both和and effective可知，此处应用形容词形式与effective构成并列关系，作表语。故填harmful。]
42．issues　[考查名词复数。句意：见上题解析。根据句意可知，表示问题不止一个。故填issues。]
43．be seen　[考查被动语态。句意：尽管同龄人压力通常被视为一个非常消极的问题，但在某些情况下，它也可以被视为积极的。分析句子可知，it指代前文的peer pressure，又see与主语it是被动关系，应用被动语态。故填be seen。]
