阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)
第一节
(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
I
live
on
the
West
Coast
of
British
Columbia
with
my
husband
and
three
children.
Our
day
started
like
any
other
day.
My
husband
left
for
work
in
the
north
of
the
town，which
is
an
hour
and
a
half’s
drive.
The
younger
children
caught
their
bus
to
school
ten
minutes
away.
Our
oldest
attends
high
school
and
is
a
40?minute
drive
away.
I
work
at
home
in
the
office，working
on
the
computer.
It
was
November
2006
and
the
news
had
reported
gusty
winds.
When
the
winds
started
to
get
strong
I
shut
the
computer
down
and
tried
to
phone
my
husband.
I
left
a
message
telling
him
the
winds
were
blowing
at
80
to
90
km/hr.
As
I
hung
up
the
phone，I
heard
a
tree
crack.
I
went
outside
and
stood
in
the
driveway.
Another
tree
exploded
and
my
heart
was
racing.
When
the
school
bus
carrying
the
youngsters
arrived，I
ran
to
get
them.
No
sooner
had
we
made
it
to
the
house
than
another
tree
exploded.
The
children
were
clearly
scared，so
I
loaded
them
up
into
the
car
and
we
parked
in
the
middle
of
the
yard，where
no
trees
could
land
on
us.
It
was
starting
to
get
dark.
My
oldest
son
didn’t
come
home
on
the
bus
and
my
husband
was
stranded
at
work.
I
called
the
high
school
and
reached
my
son.
He
said
he
was
stranded
and
didn’t
know
what
to
do.
I
called
a
friend
in
town
for
help.
He
managed
to
get
my
son
home
to
me.
Finally，my
husband
managed
to
get
home.
We
had
been
prepared
for
such
events，as
we
had
a
generator，candles，a
wood
stove，fresh
water，batteries
and
two
freezers
full
of
food.
We
were
without
power
for
five
days.
But
we
didn’t
panic-we
had
all
the
emergency
equipment
we
needed.
Thankfully，none
of
our
neighbours
were
injured，but
the
damage
was
extensive.
We
are
witnessing
climate
change.
We
need
to
be
prepared.

B
It’s
undeniable
that
spending
time
outdoors
and
in
nature
lifts
our
spirits
and
makes
us
feel
more
centered
and
at
peace.When
we
breathe
in
fresh
air，and
enjoy
the
beauty
of
trees，streams
and
oceans，we
naturally
tend
to
feel
more
connected
to
ourselves
and
others.
Over
the
past
decade，scientists
have
been
exploring
why
nature-and
dirt
specifically-is
such
a
powerful
tool
in
improving
our
mood.According
to
researchers，the
secret
may
lie
in
the
microbes(微生物)of
the
soil.One
bacterium
specifically-Mycobacterium
Vaccae
(M.Vaccae)-has
been
identified
as
having
the
power
to
affect
our
moods
and
cognitive
function
as
well.
Experiments
conducted
at
Sage
Colleges
in
New
York
found
that
contact
with
M.Vaccae
could
increase
serotonin
levels
in
the
brain-a
chemical
that
is
associated
with
higher
levels
of
happiness-increased
focus，and
reduced
anxiety.In
order
to
explore
how
the
bacteria
could
improve
learning，researchers
Dory
Mathews
and
Susan
Jenks
experimented
with
mice
in
a
maze.Mice
that
ingested
the
bacteria
navigated
the
maze
twice
as
fast
as
the
control
group
and
proved
less
anxious
as
well.
Humans
can
absorb
M.Vaccae
just
by
playing
in
the
dirt.We
take
in
it
when
we
breathe，we
consume
it
in
organic
vegetables，and
it
can
also
enter
our
bloodstream
through
skin
contact，especially
where
we
have
open
cuts.This
may
explain
why
children
in
school
perform
better
after
break.
Neuroscientist
Christopher
Lowry
at
the
University
of
Bristol
in
England
believes
that
he
has
identified
why
this
incredible
bacterium
works.“What
we
think
happens
is
that
the
bacteria
activate
immune
cells，which
release
chemicals
called
cytokines
that
then
act
on
receptors
on
the
sensory
nerves
to
increase
their
activity.”
Beyond
the
power
of
M.Vaccae，scientists
have
been
proving
for
decades
that
exposure
to
dirt，and
a
huge
number
of
microbes
found
in
dirt，can
strengthen
our
immune
system.When
our
body
comes
into
contact
with
bacteria，it
stores
die
information
in
a
type
of
library
and
can
then
use
that
information
to
fight
sickness
and
infection
more
effectively.
Happiness，focus，less
anxiety...I’ll
take
a
double
dose
of
dirt；please!
4.

raises
people’s
spirits
while
spending
time
outdoors?
A.
Air.
B.
Trees.
C.
Water.
D.
Dirt.
5.
How
does
M.Vaccae
work?
A.
By
working
on
sensory
nerves.
B.
By
fighting
sickness
and
infection.
C.
By
strengthening
the
immune
system.
D.
By
making
immune
cells
active.
6.
What
can
be
a
suitable
title
for
the
text?
A.

C
Scientists
Diego
Kersting
and
Cristina
Linares
have
found
that
some
coral
species
are
able
to
recover
from
harmful
warming
events
through
a
unique
survival
strategy
(策略)—known
as
“rejuvenescence”
(新生)—among
corals
in
the
Mediterranean
Sea.
The
findings
represent
some
rare
good
news
for
corals
around
the
world,
which
are
facing
numerous
severe
threats—most
notably,
climate
change.
“The
main
threats
are
climate
change,
overfishing,
pollution
and
coastal
urbanization,”
Kersting
said.
“But
currently,
climate
change
is
probably
the
one
causing
the
most
coral
cover
declines.
Warming
stresses
corals
up
to
a
point
that
may
cause
death.
Some
corals
bleach
(白化)
before
dying.
Other
corals
do
not
bleach
but
die
directly.”
He
went
on,
“Our
findings
are
significant
because
this
survival
strategy
was
only
known
from
fossil
corals
that
existed
hundreds
of
millions
of
years
ago.
It
is
the
first
time
that
it
has
been
found
in
a
living
coral.
Thanks
to
our
findings,
we
know
now
that
some
corals
are
able
to
recover,
but
unfortunately
this
is
not
enough
in
the
current
climate
change
context.”
For
their
research,
Kersting
and
Linares
monitored
243
colonies
of
the
endangered
reef-building
coral
Cladocoracaespitosa
in
Spain’s
Columbretes
Islands
Marine
Reserve
over
16
years,
starting
in
2002.
The
monitoring
revealed
that
Cladocoracaespitosa
in
the
Mediterranean
uses
rejuvenescence
to
cope
with
warming
events.
This
process
involves
the
polyps
—
or
the
individual
coral
animals
in
a
colony—shrinking
inward
and
abandoning
their
skeletons
(骨骼)
during
warm
periods,
before
rejuvenating
at
a
later
point.
“What
happens
is
that
some
polyps
in
a
coral
colony—sometimes
just
one—
reduces
completely
its
dimensions
and
partially
retreats
from
its
skeleton,”
Kersting
said.
“Once
the
stressful
event
is
over,
the
shrunken
or
rejuvenated
polyp
recovers
its
size
and
builds
up
a
new
skeleton.
Eventually,
it
begins
to
reproduce
itself
through
budding
and
begins
to
cover
the
dead
colony
surfaces.”
He
continued,
“The
results
were
very
surprising
because
I
started
to
observe
colonies
that
were
dead
years
ago,
that
were
showing
living
parts
many
years
after
their
death.”

now?
A.
Overfishing.
B.
Light
pollution.
C.
City
growth.
D.

strategy?

of
warming
events.
B.
It
was
found
for
the
first
time.
C.
It
will
bring

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
For
many
years
the
school
system
in
Finland
has
been
very
successful.
In
the
PISA
survey,
which
compares
reading,
math
and
science
knowledge
of
15-year-olds
around
the
world,
Finland
is
not
only
the
top
European
country
but
also
competes
with
Asian
giants
like
Shanghai,
Singapore
and
South
Korea.
But
what
makes
the
educational
system
in
this
small
country
so
different
from
others
in
the
western
countries?
Until
the
1960s,
most
Finland’s
most
students
left
school
after
six
years.
In
the
middle
of
the
1960s,
the
Finnish
government
saw
the
need
to
change
and
modernize
their
education
system
if
they
want
to
be
internationally
competitive.
Lawmakers
made
a
simple
decision:
a
basic
school
for
all
the
7-
to
16-year-pulsory
(义务的)
education
begins
at
7.
The
government
makes
it
possible
for
all
children
to
attend
preschool
as
well.
Most
of
Finland’s
schools
get
their
money
from
the
government.
The
people
who
are
in
charge
of
the
education
system,
from
teachers
to
officials
are
trained
teachers,
not
politicians
like
in
other
countries.
Teachers
work
with
their
pupils
in
school
as
much
as
possible.
When
teachers
are
not
with
the
pupils,
they
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
schools
working
on
the
curriculum
(课程)
and
new
projects.
Schools
in
Finland
are
small,
at
least
for
international
standards.
So
teachers
know
every
pupil
in
their
school
and
try
everything
to
succeed
with
their
pupils.
In
contrast
to
other
nations,
Finland
selects
its
teachers
very
carefully:
only
talented
teachers
go
on
to
a
university
and
receive
a
master’s
degree
in
education.
Finland
only
takes
the
best
to
educate
its
youth.
All
Finnish
children,
whether
they
come
from
the
city
or
the
country,
whether
from
a
rich
or
poor
family,
have
the
same
chances
in
education.
There
are
not
so
many
differences
between
the
wealthy
and
the
poor,
as
in
America
or
other
Western
European
countries.
Education
experts
say
that
there
is
very
little
difference
between
very
good
and
the
worst
students.
Two
thirds
of
Finnish
pupils
move
on
to
higher
education,
the
highest
rate
in
the
European
Union.

第一节
(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
I
live
on
the
West
Coast
of
British
Columbia
with
my
husband
and
three
children.
Our
day
started
like
any
other
day.
My
husband
left
for
work
in
the
north
of
the
town，which
is
an
hour
and
a
half’s
drive.
The
younger
children
caught
their
bus
to
school
ten
minutes
away.
Our
oldest
attends
high
school
and
is
a
40?minute
drive
away.
I
work
at
home
in
the
office，working
on
the
computer.
It
was
November
2006
and
the
news
had
reported
gusty
winds.
When
the
winds
started
to
get
strong
I
shut
the
computer
down
and
tried
to
phone
my
husband.
I
left
a
message
telling
him
the
winds
were
blowing
at
80
to
90
km/hr.
As
I
hung
up
the
phone，I
heard
a
tree
crack.
I
went
outside
and
stood
in
the
driveway.
Another
tree
exploded
and
my
heart
was
racing.
When
the
school
bus
carrying
the
youngsters
arrived，I
ran
to
get
them.
No
sooner
had
we
made
it
to
the
house
than
another
tree
exploded.
The
children
were
clearly
scared，so
I
loaded
them
up
into
the
car
and
we
parked
in
the
middle
of
the
yard，where
no
trees
could
land
on
us.
It
was
starting
to
get
dark.
My
oldest
son
didn’t
come
home
on
the
bus
and
my
husband
was
stranded
at
work.
I
called
the
high
school
and
reached
my
son.
He
said
he
was
stranded
and
didn’t
know
what
to
do.
I
called
a
friend
in
town
for
help.
He
managed
to
get
my
son
home
to
me.
Finally，my
husband
managed
to
get
home.
We
had
been
prepared
for
such
events，as
we
had
a
generator，candles，a
wood
stove，fresh
water，batteries
and
two
freezers
full
of
food.
We
were
without
power
for
five
days.
But
we
didn’t
panic-we
had
all
the
emergency
equipment
we
needed.
Thankfully，none
of
our
neighbours
were
injured，but
the
damage
was
extensive.
We
are
witnessing
climate
change.
We
need
to
be
prepared.

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者一家人遭遇极端天气，家庭成员几经周折才安全到家，家里虽然没电，但因为做了充分的准备，所以并不慌张。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“As
I
hung
up
the
phone，I
heard
a
tree
crack.
I
went
outside
and
stood
in
the
driveway.
Another
tree
exploded
and
my
heart
was
racing.”（当我挂断电话时，我听到一棵树劈啪作响。我走到外面，站在车道上。另一棵树爆裂了，我的心跳加速。）和第三段中的“When
the
school
bus
carrying
the
youngsters
arrived，I
ran
to
get
them.
No
sooner
had
we
made
it
to
the
house
than
another
tree
exploded.”（当载着孩子们的校车到达时，我跑去接他们。我们刚到家，另一棵树就爆裂了。），可知作者把孩子们接回家时，就听到第三棵树断裂的声音。故选D项。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中的“The
children
were
clearly
scared，so
I
loaded
them
up
into
the
car
and
we
parked
in
the
middle
of
the
yard，where
no
trees
could
land
on
us.”（孩子们显然很害怕，所以我把他们装进车里，我们把车停在院子中间，那里没有树可以落在我们身上。），可知作者把车停在院子中间，是因为没有树木能够砸到他们，得出作者认为院子里更安全。故选B项。
【3题详解】
短语猜测题。由第一段中的“My
husband
left
for
work
in
the
north
of
the
town，which
is
an
hour
and
a
half’s
drive.”（我丈夫去城北上班，那里有一个半小时的车程。），画线词前一句“My
oldest
son
didn’t
come
home
on
the
bus”（我的大儿子没有坐公共汽车回家）及画线词后的“I
called
the
high
school
and
reached
my
son.
He
said
he
was
stranded
and
didn’t
know
what
to
do.”（我给高中打了个电话给我儿子。他说他被困了，不知道该怎么办。）可知，作者的儿子被困在了学校，她的丈夫被困在了工作的地方，stranded
at
work在此处意为“被困在了工作的地方”。故选C项。
B
It’s
undeniable
that
spending
time
outdoors
and
in
nature
lifts
our
spirits
and
makes
us
feel
more
centered
and
at
peace.When
we
breathe
in
fresh
air，and
enjoy
the
beauty
of
trees，streams
and
oceans，we
naturally
tend
to
feel
more
connected
to
ourselves
and
others.
Over
the
past
decade，scientists
have
been
exploring
why
nature-and
dirt
specifically-is
such
a
powerful
tool
in
improving
our
mood.According
to
researchers，the
secret
may
lie
in
the
microbes(微生物)of
the
soil.One
bacterium
specifically-Mycobacterium
Vaccae
(M.Vaccae)-has
been
identified
as
having
the
power
to
affect
our
moods
and
cognitive
function
as
well.
Experiments
conducted
at
Sage
Colleges
in
New
York
found
that
contact
with
M.Vaccae
could
increase
serotonin
levels
in
the
brain-a
chemical
that
is
associated
with
higher
levels
of
happiness-increased
focus，and
reduced
anxiety.In
order
to
explore
how
the
bacteria
could
improve
learning，researchers
Dory
Mathews
and
Susan
Jenks
experimented
with
mice
in
a
maze.Mice
that
ingested
the
bacteria
navigated
the
maze
twice
as
fast
as
the
control
group
and
proved
less
anxious
as
well.
Humans
can
absorb
M.Vaccae
just
by
playing
in
the
dirt.We
take
in
it
when
we
breathe，we
consume
it
in
organic
vegetables，and
it
can
also
enter
our
bloodstream
through
skin
contact，especially
where
we
have
open
cuts.This
may
explain
why
children
in
school
perform
better
after
break.
Neuroscientist
Christopher
Lowry
at
the
University
of
Bristol
in
England
believes
that
he
has
identified
why
this
incredible
bacterium
works.“What
we
think
happens
is
that
the
bacteria
activate
immune
cells，which
release
chemicals
called
cytokines
that
then
act
on
receptors
on
the
sensory
nerves
to
increase
their
activity.”
Beyond
the
power
of
M.Vaccae，scientists
have
been
proving
for
decades
that
exposure
to
dirt，and
a
huge
number
of
microbes
found
in
dirt，can
strengthen
our
immune
system.When
our
body
comes
into
contact
with
bacteria，it
stores
die
information
in
a
type
of
library
and
can
then
use
that
information
to
fight
sickness
and
infection
more
effectively.
Happiness，focus，less
anxiety...I’ll
take
a
double
dose
of
dirt；please!

spirits
while

time
outdoors?
A.

5.

does
M.Vaccae
work?

By
working
on
sensory
nerves.
B.
By
fighting
sickness
and
infection.
C.
By
strengthening
the
immune
system.
D.
By

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Over
the
past
decade，scientists
have
been
exploring
why
nature-and
dirt
specifically-is
such
a
powerful
tool
in
improving
our
mood.”可知，在过去的十年里，科学家们一直在探索为什么大自然——尤其是泥土——是改善我们情绪的有力工具。故“泥土”让人们在户外活动时精神振奋。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“What
we
think
happens
is
that
the
bacteria
activate
immune
cells，which
release
chemicals
called
cytokines
that
then
act
on
receptors
on
the
sensory
nerves
to
increase
their
activity.”可知，这种细菌激活了免疫细胞，免疫细胞释放一种叫细胞因子化学物质，然后作用于感觉神经上的受体，增加它们的活性。所以，M.Vaccae是通过激活免疫细胞来工作的。故选D。

C
Scientists
Diego
Kersting
and
Cristina
Linares
have
found
that
some
coral
species
are
able
to
recover
from
harmful
warming
events
through
a
unique
survival
strategy
(策略)—known
as
“rejuvenescence”
(新生)—among
corals
in
the
Mediterranean
Sea.
The
findings
represent
some
rare
good
news
for
corals
around
the
world,
which
are
facing
numerous
severe
threats—most
notably,
climate
change.
“The
main
threats
are
climate
change,
overfishing,
pollution
and
coastal
urbanization,”
Kersting
said.
“But
currently,
climate
change
is
probably
the
one
causing
the
most
coral
cover
declines.
Warming
stresses
corals
up
to
a
point
that
may
cause
death.
Some
corals
bleach
(白化)
before
dying.
Other
corals
do
not
bleach
but
die
directly.”
He
went
on,
“Our
findings
are
significant
because
this
survival
strategy
was
only
known
from
fossil
corals
that
existed
hundreds
of
millions
of
years
ago.
It
is
the
first
time
that
it
has
been
found
in
a
living
coral.
Thanks
to
our
findings,
we
know
now
that
some
corals
are
able
to
recover,
but
unfortunately
this
is
not
enough
in
the
current
climate
change
context.”
For
their
research,
Kersting
and
Linares
monitored
243
colonies
of
the
endangered
reef-building
coral
Cladocoracaespitosa
in
Spain’s
Columbretes
Islands
Marine
Reserve
over
16
years,
starting
in
2002.
The
monitoring
revealed
that
Cladocoracaespitosa
in
the
Mediterranean
uses
rejuvenescence
to
cope
with
warming
events.
This
process
involves
the
polyps
—
or
the
individual
coral
animals
in
a
colony—shrinking
inward
and
abandoning
their
skeletons
(骨骼)
during
warm
periods,
before
rejuvenating
at
a
later
point.
“What
happens
is
that
some
polyps
in
a
coral
colony—sometimes
just
one—
reduces
completely
its
dimensions
and
partially
retreats
from
its
skeleton,”
Kersting
said.
“Once
the
stressful
event
is
over,
the
shrunken
or
rejuvenated
polyp
recovers
its
size
and
builds
up
a
new
skeleton.
Eventually,
it
begins
to
reproduce
itself
through
budding
and
begins
to
cover
the
dead
colony
surfaces.”
He
continued,
“The
results
were
very
surprising
because
I
started
to
observe
colonies
that
were
dead
years
ago,
that
were
showing
living
parts
many
years
after
their
death.”

本文是一篇科普说明文。科学硏究发现珊瑚采取了一种再生生存策略，这或许能减少珊瑚白化现象。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But
currently,
climate
change
is
probably
the
one
causing
the
most
coral
cover
declines.（但目前，气候变化可能是导致珊瑚覆盖面积下降最多的原因。）”可知珊瑚现在面临的最大威胁是气候变化。可知选D。

【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中For
their
research,
Kersting
and
Linares
monitored
243
colonies
of
the
endangered
reef-building
coral
Cladocoracaespitosa
in
Spain’s
Columbretes
Islands

The
monitoring
revealed
that
Cladocoracaespitosa

【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后句“Once
the
stressful
event
is
over;
the
shrunken
or
rejuvenated
polyp
recovers
its
size
and
builds
up
a
new
skeleton.
Eventually,
it
begins
to
reproduce
itself
through
budding
and
begins
to
cover
the
dead
colony
surfaces.”（一旦压力事件结束，萎缩的或恢复活力的珊瑚虫恢复其大小并会建立一个新的骨骼。最终，它开始通过发芽繁殖，并开始覆盖死去的表面）可知，当有压力事件发生时，珊瑚虫会从珊瑚上撤退。故划线单词意思为“撤退”，故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为
①
定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer
to，be
called或that’s
to
say，such
as等。
②
逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the
same
as,but,however,while,on
the
other
hand,since
,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。
③
语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。
④
语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。
⑤
指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。
如第四小题，根据后句“Once
the
stressful
event
is
over;
the
shrunken
or
rejuvenated
polyp
recovers
its
size
and
builds
up
a
new
skeleton.
Eventually,
it
begins
to
reproduce
itself
through
budding
and
begins
to
cover
the
dead
colony
surfaces.”（一旦压力事件结束，萎缩的或恢复活力的
polyp恢复其大小并会建立一个新的骨骼。最终，它开始通过发芽繁殖，并开始覆盖死去的表面）可知，当有压力事件发生时，
polyp会从珊瑚上撤退。故划线单词意思为“撤退”，故选A。

living。
【37题详解】

poorness。

第二节
概要写作(满分25分)
47.
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
For
many
years
the
school
system
in
Finland
has
been
very
successful.
In
the
PISA
survey,
which
compares
reading,
math
and
science
knowledge
of
15-year-olds
around
the
world,
Finland
is
not
only
the
top
European
country
but
also
competes
with
Asian
giants
like
Shanghai,
Singapore
and
South
Korea.
But
what
makes
the
educational
system
in
this
small
country
so
different
from
others
in
the
western
countries?
Until
the
1960s,
most
Finland’s
most
students
left
school
after
six
years.
In
the
middle
of
the
1960s,
the
Finnish
government
saw
the
need
to
change
and
modernize
their
education
system
if
they
want
to
be
internationally
competitive.
Lawmakers
made
a
simple
decision:
a
basic
school
for
all
the
7-
to
16-year-pulsory
(义务的)
education
begins
at
7.
The
government
makes
it
possible
for
all
children
to
attend
preschool
as
well.
Most
of
Finland’s
schools
get
their
money
from
the
government.
The
people
who
are
in
charge
of
the
education
system,
from
teachers
to
officials
are
trained
teachers,
not
politicians
like
in
other
countries.
Teachers
work
with
their
pupils
in
school
as
much
as
possible.
When
teachers
are
not
with
the
pupils
they
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
schools
working
on
the
curriculum
(课程)
and
new
projects.
Schools
in
Finland
are
small,
at
least
for
international
standards.
So
teachers
know
every
pupil
in
their
school
and
try
everything
to
succeed
with
their
pupils.
In
contrast
to
other
nations,
Finland
selects
its
teachers
very
carefully:
only
talented
teachers
go
on
to
a
university
and
receive
a
master’s
degree
in
education.
Finland
only
takes
the
best
to
educate
its
youth.
All
Finnish
children,
whether
they
come
from
the
city
or
the
country,
whether
from
a
rich
or
poor
family,
have
the
same
chances
in
education.
There
are
not
so
many
differences
between
the
wealthy
and
the
poor,
as
in
America
or
other
Western
European
countries.
Education
experts
say
that
there
is
very
little
difference
between
very
good
and
the
worst
students.
Two
thirds
of
Finnish
pupils
move
on
to
higher
education,
the
highest
rate
in
the
European
Union.
